A bag of chips
Mid-week blues Remember how some months ago we thought the hot dinner party topic would be "which vaccine did you get?" - we're changing that now to "have you been to space yet?" It looks like Musk is the loser in the space race with Branson taking the lead by flying first and Bezos winning in terms of miles (he flew 62 into space).

Missed penalties, not opportunities ⚽️
Skip it We're kind of superstitious here so we've jumped an issue and are now at 14! Hope you're enjoying our quick little news pieces and remember, feedback is always very helpful so send us some. The space race has ended sooner than we imagined, with Richard Branson taking the comet. Branson flew with 5 other crew members 52.5 miles in air. A taste of what 600 other people have paid ($200,000 each) to get.

Space Jam 2.0 🚀
Watch out for Delta As expected, another Covid-19 variant is making its round across the globe! The Delta variant is more transmissable, was first identified in India and has now spread to over 77 countries. Guess what? Vaccination appears to provide good protection against this variant too, so if you still haven't, this is your sign to go get #vaxxed.

I'm a content creator, duh ⭐️
Summer mood It's getting hot. Like climate-change-is-real hot. Western U.S is facing record breaking heat wave. As is the Middle East, Morocco, Taiwan, Vietnam, Pakistan, Philippines and basically most of Asia. Time to take a close look at infrastructure and how (ill)equipped it is in dealing with the effects of climate change.

Do you even Lyft, bro? 🚗
Waiting on the world to change... Well apparently, waiting just isn't going to cut it. Don't underestimate the power of social media, so post wisely and raise your voice for things that matter. And while the world of politics, injustice, corruption and war never sleeps, the tech/startup news was kind of boring these last couple of weeks. In any case, we're here delivering top tier information so you don't have to consume more than you need!

Last game babe, promise 🤖
Time for a riddle Your friends ditch plans because of it, your partner would probably choose it over you, your kids won't stop talking about it and even your office shares updates about it. It's nothing short of Epic... What is it? FORTNITE. Yes COD would probably be top of the list as well.

Paint me like one of your avatars
Is April really almost over? 😅 Where is time going and is there a way we can slow it down, just a bit? There’s a lingering sense of hopelessness in the air as a year on from the start of Covid-19, most countries still have strict travel and lockdown restrictions. Another set of birthdays, anniversaries and milestones are being spent away from loved ones and more and more people are finding cases of Covid hitting closer to home…

Do anything for Clout ✨
¼ down, ¾ to go 🕰 What do quarterly wrap ups look like in your company? Ours are reflecting on what we achieved in Q1, doing some goal setting for Q2 and gearing up for an intense Q3. Q2 and Q3 are basically the meat and toppings in the burger, and Q1 and Q4 are the essential buns holding it altogether. Enough with the terrible analogies - we hope you enjoyed our special issue of Access last week!

No more office space
New way of working 👋🏾 If it wasn’t obvious enough, Covid-19 has impacted our lives in unimaginable ways. It’s also changed the way we work and the ‘dream of working from home’ has finally come true for many. Are these companies going to remain remote first or will everyone be scrambling back to office the moment it’s deemed safe?
