BREAKTHROUGH: I’ve Discovered the Holy Grail of Disruptive Eco-Responsibility

My friends, we’re living in MAGICAL times.

I just witnessed a company that received the “Climatically Transcended Enterprise” label because they replaced plastic cups with… recycled cardboard cups… imported from Japan. By plane. In plastic packaging.

But wait, it gets BRILLIANT:

Their “Chief Happiness & Carbon Offset Officer” (yes, that’s a real title) explains that their 3D printer running 24/7 is now “carbon neutral” thanks to a “Symbiotic Impact Partnership” with a Bolivian farmer who promised NOT to cut down a tree.

Which one? We don’t know. Where? Trade secret.

And the cherry on top: their upcoming 47-person meeting in Dubai to discuss “Digital Sobriety” will be offset by purchasing “3.7 square meters of Amazonian forest benevolence.”

Via a mobile app, naturally.

ECOLOGICAL-TRANSITION HUMOR

The Tesla windshield syndrome

The Tesla windshield syndrome

“Il avait tout : un site responsive, une charte graphique couleur lavande, et une bio écrite en Figma. Et pourtant… il s’est fait ghoster plus vite qu’un stagiaire en fin de période d’essai.”

À 23h12, pendant que vous dormez paisiblement, un inconnu Googlera votre nom. Et là, tout peut s’effondrer. Pas à cause de votre travail… À cause de votre profil Viadeo oublié de 2013 où vous vous disiez “expert en synergies transversales”.

Bienvenue dans le monde merveilleux de la crédibilité numérique passive-agressive, où un silence en ligne est plus suspect qu’un chat qui fait la vaisselle.

Parce que ce n’est pas votre site qui fait vendre. C’est votre trace. Même bancale. Surtout bancale.

HUMOR

If what you do is vague, then perfect

If what you do is vague, then perfect

📌 Friday mood post 📌

Not quite sure what you do for a living? Perfect, you’re ready to shine in society.

These days, it’s not about having a job, it’s about having a storyline. Forget plumber, say hello to “residual hydric flow specialist for individual housing ecosystems.” The blurrier it sounds, the fancier it gets. Selling hot air? Even better—so long as it’s disruptive and synergistically intense.

In a world where clarity is a social faux pas, simply telling the truth has become downright obscene. And yet, sometimes, it just feels good.

👉 If you’re tired of “regenerative solutions” and “holistic acculturation roadmaps,” this piece might just speak to you. Or make you laugh. Or both.

A day in the life of Kevin, Chief Bullshit Officer

A day in the life of Kevin, Chief Bullshit Officer

📌 Friday mood post 📌

🧘‍♂️ Ever get the feeling your company has gone slightly off the rails?
That between two “strategic alignment” meetings and three “co-intentionality bubbles,” no one really knows why they’re here—but everyone’s doing it with remarkable depth?
Then you might have a Kevin nearby.

This (barely exaggerated) piece, excerpted from my upcoming book Kevin, Chief Bullshit Officer, takes you through a typical day in the life of a professional in conscious indecision, a paradox whisperer, and master of vibrational presence.

🌀 It’s funny.
🌀 It’s absurd.
🌀 And if it feels a little too familiar, you may be living in a bullshit-woke-green-complacent ecosystem, where asking a critical question is seen as “creating dissonance in the collective flow.”

Behind the parody lies a sharp (and slightly chilling) X-ray of what work becomes when meaning is replaced by motion-design storytelling, and reality by “shared vibrations.”

Enjoy the read. And if you meet a Kevin, stay calm, breathe… and whatever you do, don’t ask what he actually does. You might get an answer.

HUMOR PARADOX

They Stole My Sausage

They Stole My Sausage

📌 Friday mood post 📌

2:07 PM. I open my lunch box. I pull out a ham and butter sandwich.

A colleague faints. Another calls HR screaming.

That’s how I discovered eating had become a political act.

When your plate becomes a ballot and saying “enjoy your meal” gets replaced with “may the chlorophyll elevate you,” maybe we’ve lost the plot somewhere.

Between carbon fines for a piece of salami and mandatory “carnivore rehabilitation” workshops, I realized something: we’re confusing food purity with moral purity.

What if we stopped playing the virtue Olympics?

Because at the end of the day, behind this whole Instagram masquerade, we’re forgetting the essential: we have the right to be human. With our contradictions, our flaws, and our 2 AM cravings.

Even if it’s “politically questionable and ethically dubious.”

A little manifesto against food shaming and for the right to imperfection. Because we’re not algorithms.
