Welcome to our first social-media-free-online-biz-and-marketing links digest AKA the CLICK THRU!

Please know that it took me over a month to come up with a clever name for these digests and a literal lifetime to collect some of the links I’m sharing here, so I hope you love them.

This month’s round-up includes a July playlist, a business oracle deck, a not-for-profit manifesto, and more!

As always, this is a choose-your-own-adventure sort of endeavor, so you’re invited to dip your toe in one link at a time, dive into the deep end and open them all at once, or just hang out in the splash zone of the comments and see what surfaces there.

Please remember that I don’t necessarily know the folks who create the things I link to, and I definitely don’t endorse every single thing that every single person I mention writes, says, or shares. Also, if I link to anything sponsored or an affiliate-ed, that will be clearly marked with the words “sponsored” or “affiliate link.”

OK that feels like enough disclaimers, so onward to our first CLICK THRU + I’ll see you in the comments!

WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH SOCIAL MEDIA

🚨 So apparently the Surgeon General thinks social media should come with a warning label now? I agree with the overall sentiment, but I can only image what weird images those warning might include. Tech neck? Carpal tunnel? Can you illustrate negative self-comparison? I guess we’ll see!

🙃 Kill me dead for recommending a podcast conversation between two white men, but I do actually endorse listening to…
