Happy Employee Appreciation day. I got you this email.

Car accident by my house. 2 people involved. Non-fatal. City sent 8 police cars, 3 ambulances, 1 fire truck. My city is 17k people and 7 square miles. Starting to think my taxes might be too high if there are that many cops on duty who can respond to one incident.

Tariffs won't be a problem. We just need to magically find raw materials in the US somewhere, invent new chip technologies we don't have, re-tool all of our factories and refineries, and educate or re-train tens of millions of people. But after that, prices might go down.

Team, if everybody works 60 hour weeks in office we can create the thing that replaces your job. Why aren't you excited about this?

If you missed my webinar yesterday with #pucon Brett Tabke Joe Laratro and Eric Enge good news, it was recorded and is now on youtube! www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlhB...

This kid keeps shooting fire and I’m here for the ride. It’s been a good week of cornhole.

If you missed today's webinar it was recorded. streamyard.com/watch/ky8MTT...

"automating SEO" is just a race to the sea of sameness. it may work for a minute, but when there's 10,000 versions using the same automated tools you are, then what?

there really ought to be more discussion about the fact that virtually every promise (or denial) trump made during the campaign was a total lie

OH: "I've got a vasectomy and an 800 credit score" is a better pickup line than anything else you can come up with.

thinking about how you can't take a keychain bottle opener through TSA security, but if you go to the skyclub there's just tons of knifes hanging around - and if you upgrade to first class and get a meal they literally hand you a knife on the plane

As they become a more important demographic in everybody's marketing plans, I created a quick primer on gen alpha slang www.noslang.com/genalpha/

Don't miss this webinar THIS thursday! www.searchengineworld.com/webinar-seo-...

would it be wrong to ask my entire team to send an email to Elon every week with 5 bullet points?

Managed to win doubles with my friend’s son this weekend.

The whole myth of total Elon genius right there folks. Smart no doubt but the smartest? Obviously not.

Thanks @jimbanks.bsky.social for having me on the podcast. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw0v...

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it: www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

I just said goodbye to one of my best childhood friends. 2 days ago we were talking about hockey. 5 hours ago we said goodbye. He was only 43. Fuck cancer.

Thanks for the stickers @ryanjones.bsky.social and @serprecon.com!

I have a client in Houston looking to hire a Sr. SEO manager (10 years experience role) onsite for retail. I told them I'd help source resumes. If you know somebody, DM me.

Been looking into a couple struggling retail sites lately. Noticing a trend: they're losing at the product level to manufacturers, and not investing enough in mid or upper funnel content. The days of ranking with just a list of products is over.

Media: if you want to end this, it's simple. Start referring to him as "president Musk" in front of Trump. He'll be out in 2 days.

If they're all freeloaders and uneducated criminals and drug dealers - then why is ICE raiding workplaces?

If blessed are the meek then I’m cursed.

Some great quotes from me in this article. I highly suggesting going and watching the whole episode though. www.searchenginejournal.com/google-share...

Robots.txt files are surprisingly versitile & robust. Mine is also an audio file, no cloaking involved. People should have more fun with tech :-). I finally wrote up how my robots.txt file works at johnmu.com/2025-side-ef...

I'm looking for a PC mixer that can take 2 headsets - so 2 people can "commentate" on a live streamed sports event. Every "mixer" on amazon seems to have only 1 headset plug. am I looking for the wrong thing? HELP

Has anybody ever been like: "Thank you very much for that PDF of a page speed report you randomly emailed me. You know what, after looking at it I WILL change my SEO agency."

In about 30 min I'll be joining the SEO community slack to do a live demo and answer questions about @serprecon.com - if you're part of that slack community come join us for office hours.
