"Don’t ask for permission (ask forgiveness)
Break the rules. Turn the music up too loud. If you do piss someone off, you can always apologise afterwards. But worrying about what people will think before you do something is only ever going to hold your back. Outside of your closest circle of friends, canvassing for opinion isn’t helpful. You’ll just end up playing it safe. . "

@gusseting @muppeth @adamgreenfield strong disagree in many (not all) contexts¹ and not at all what my pithy joke was about but thanks for sharing, I guess 1 this attitude is weaponised by asshats² all the time on professional & personal contexts, especially all the billionaire (and wannabe-billionaire) techbros who like to move fast & break things at scale 2 not that I’m not calling you an asshat, I try to avoid being passive-aggressive
