LinkedIn being the company that took Sam up on that Game Changer sponsership is actully perfect. I thought it was gonna be one of those brands that tries to be cool or have a personality, but LinkedIn is just boring enough to make it hilarious.

Yeah that's worth $100k

i cannot get over last nights game changer. like im still crying about the power of friendship

like jacob has given away the money at every opportunity. every time a challenge involved money he would donate it to a historical society, or a highschool marching band, like. every time gamechanger gives him money he supports his community. i was crying so much watching.

huge shoutout to the team. huge shoutout to linkedin for making this happen 😂💪👍

knowing which homie has eaten the most hotdogs! listening in on their argument. the unanimous agreement about the one guys hackey sack skills. his fucking dad getting a shoutout at the beginning of the episode. im tearing up writing this.

God, at least the responses all find this creepy and inappropriate.

Not the sponsor being LinkedIn lmfaoooo

[a-jar-of-beetles]

the idea of the LinkedIn sponsor is just so hilarious to me because there had to be several people who checked out a bunch the Dropout and then go hmmm the audience of these shows will definitely be looking for jobs

$100k is like… $0.10-0.20 per subscriber based on the numbers I’ve heard.

That seems… like a terrible deal on Microsoft’s part?

I realise Tumblr is hardly the market for this, but for those of us who do use LinkedIn, they've just enabled Generative AI as an Opt-Out setting. It will automatically be set to On unless you go in and turn the setting off yourself

If you're lucky enough to be in the EU, Switzerland or the UK, it should be set to Off by default

Everyone else cosplaying as a grown-up business person like me, go change your settings. If you don't have the email warning you of the change, it's in Settings on your profile under Data Privacy

They're going crazy on LinkedIn

"Toxic Positivity" is another phrase that gets bandied about so much that the whole of us forget what shapes our tongues need to make to form the right sounds.

Toxic positivity isn't smiling through tears or stiffing that upper lip, it's not hearing "the sun will come out tomorrow" on the old warped record player in your head or making jokes after a tragedy. At worst, those things are naivety and at best they're Hope.

If you want to see Toxic Positivity, capitalized and omnipresent, just to see what it looks like, go to any job recruiters' page on LinkedIn. It's a landscape made of rictus smiles and worn down manifestations; each profile is a shiny altar to a god that won't acknowledge it's been abandoned.
