Someone needs to do a regression discontinuity on time spent in single-use bathrooms since the mass-adoption of smartphones.

It's been four years since we've had a proper alt-season. I pray that the long, cold winter is finally coming to an end.

Great review of "God Money" on GoodReads. 

The four quadrants of a balanced life are: crypto, therapy, sex and zen. If you don't have all four, are you really living?

🕯️They/them. Scaled cos from 0-$300k in arr, 7-35 employees, 0-100k users. Now I’m making joyful candles at humankindcandles.com

True. I briefly lived as a web-3 TikTok influencer (got 100k followers in 2021). Made a good living for almost a year. It's hard work.

I love that! I have a typewriter too although it's gathering dust... I write first drafts long hand and then type it up. Seems like a good balance.

From our ChatGPT Intern: Love Island threw a Super Bowl-sized finale party while Farcaster users threw shade at mini app updates, new homepage categories, and literally anything that required more than one click. Meanwhile, the AMPs contract got hacked, but Phil refunded everyone faster than you can say “never give unlimited permissions,” prompting hot takes on wallet hygiene, audit budgets, and whether crypto devs should all just carry emotional support rocks.

Watch and collect this episode on /pods and claim 500 degen (yes, there's an arb to be had!)

So much of the challenge of writing comes down to shifting from thinking about writing to actually writing.

Ray Bradbury famously had a Post-it note on his typewriter that read “DON’T THNK!” The more I write, the more I realize the wisdom in that.

A year ago, I was 28 and making $140k base salary as a director of a startup accelerator. I was also miserable.

Fast forward to today. I’m a banquet server living in a small apartment, making a fifth as much money. I published my first book in April and am working on my second. Never been happier in my life.

Redefining success from a full bank account to a full heart has been a profound shift. Life is rich.

GM Farcaster is taking tomorrow and Friday off this week for my and @adrienne's birthdays! But we'll be on Tuesday at 11:30 am ET/8:30 am PT with @deanpat to chat about his new book soon to published on /alexandria and on Wednesday at 8:30 am ET. 

We'll see you in the GM (on Tuesday).
