Agree with the old adage:

"opinions are like arseholes - everybody has one, and they all stink."

We all learn the word “kahakō” meaning “macron,” the bar over the long vowel (as in its own final letter). But it also means “steep, sheer” as in this ʻŌlelo Nōʻeau:

“1527  Ka pali kahakō lele a koa‘e.

Sheer cliff reached only by the tropic bird.

A tall, inaccessible cliff.”

In the Fall 2024 Audubon magazine is an interesting article about a bird researcher who’s cataloging and photographing specimens of Hawaiian birds which are in non-Hawaiian museums. The reference to an ʻōlelo noʻeau caught my eye. Interesting! #olelonoeau #maryKawenaPukui #adage #wiseSaying #hawaiianLanguage #olelo #OleloHawaii #audubon #extinction

Don't burn coal,

I don’t remember the last time my inner brand strategist felt compelled to search:

[campaign] AdAge

to read the behind the scenes story and find out which agency made an ad

but when the Keenan Thompson / Marcello T-Mobile ad came on I picked up my phone to see who the agency was

but when they got to the red-light therapy mask joke I realized it had to be an *actual* SNL writer

(these ads should have agencies quaking in their fancy sneakers)

#HawaiianPublicRadio didn’t post today’s #hawaiianWordOfTheDay so instead of sharing that, I’ll share my new favorite ʻŌlelo Noʻeau!

I kāhi ‘e no ke kumu mokihana, paoa ‘e no ‘one‘i i ke ‘ala.
Although the mokihana tree is at a distance, its fragrance reaches here.
Although a person is far away, the tales of his good deeds come to us.

Can’t figure how to remove myself from the #AdvertisingAge email lists. Here is the page of email newsletters for my account. I unsubscribed around a fortnight ago. Clicking ‘unsubscribe’ in the emails doesn’t seem to do anything, either. Surely it can’t be that hard to get this right? The tech for this has only been with us for about 30 years. #AdAge #Crain

I wonder how you unsubscribe to Advertising Age’s emails. Clicking ‘Unsubscribe’ does not unsubscribe you. Either that, or Crain’s measures time differently. I removed myself last week … #AdAge

Bonjour !

Alors alors...

Je suis #dessinateur et non graphiste, c'est-à-dire que je navigue entre la #bd l'illustration et l'art et j'aime chercher des idées, créer avec et pour les autres ! Je suis aussi sur la base d'#Adage de l'éducation nationale en France.

The latest front page of the #AdAge magazine (Nov. 14, 2022), on the latest #Mastodon fad:

"[E]xperts don't recommend that marketers spend their time testing the platform, either, because its setup could limit the number of consumers they're able to reach on the app."

Good.
