☕️ (R)emote Expresso #41

Hi (R)emotes,

Yes, this is yet another ☕️ (R)emote Expresso. Don’t panic - we checked, and your inbox legally can’t file for a restraining order. Yet. 💌

Hey Remote Rebels and Digital Daydreamers,

Normally this is where we’d drop a profound insight.

But since this is newsletter number three in a week, we figured: why not just give you a game instead?

Scroll down for your inbox adventure.

🎮 Inbox Adventure: The Season Opener Saga

Since we’ve clearly moved from “weekly newsletter” into “mini-series binge,” let’s lean in. Consider this your very first interactive inbox game. No clicking required - just scroll, pick your path, and enjoy the chaos.

You open your inbox and see another (R)emote Expresso. Do you…

A) Read it immediately

→ Congrats! You’ve unlocked the secret handshake for the 25/26 season. Spoiler: it involves jazz hands on Zoom and one kazoo solo.

B) Save it for later

→ Bold strategy. Unfortunately, the newsletter multiplies overnight. By morning, you’re subscribed to seventeen parallel universes of (R)emote Expresso - each slightly weirder than the last.

C) Delete it

→ Your computer freezes. The newsletter resurrects itself in Comic Sans, bold italics. It refuses to close until you RSVP for the Season Opener.

Final Level (no escape):

Whichever path you chose, the ending is the same:

✨ A glitter cannon goes off in your inbox, and you’re automatically transported to the Season 25/26 Opening Ceremony.

Thursday, August 28th - 18:30 CET (Direct from Lisbon!)

>Register here to watch the season premiere 

Your inbox quest ends here: the curtain rises on our new season. What’s waiting at the premiere?

• Our brand-new cast of creators

This isn’t just a webinar. It’s a premiere - and you’re on the guest list.

And because no season opener is complete without a look ahead… here’s your totally serious, extremely accurate Remote Forecast for 25/26.
