Between the tariff drama, a bomb cyclone burying the Northeast, and the Winter Olympics reminding us that some people are just unfairly talented, it's been a month. But with Returnuary in the rearview, post-Valentine's Day markdowns, and retailers looking to clear winter inventory, there's reason to be optimistic. In the meantime, here's another round of non-breaking news, memes, quotes, and updates for you...

Hey there! You know how stories can be told in three acts? The first act is basically a table setter, then sh*t gets real in act two, before wrapping up the loose ends in the final act. Well, we're reaching the end of Act 1 in this Q4. Buckle up. In the meantime, here's another round of non-breaking news, memes, quotes, and updates for you in the most inconsistent "weekly" newsletter around. 💬 Quote of the Week Ok, more of a testimonial, but it was great to hear some results-oriented feedback...
