A note to my agency owner and founder friends. If you're setting up accounts on apps and tools you want to retain access to after selling your company, do not use your branded email! Signed, someone who spent an hour swapping emails over for a whole bunch of software.

I got an email about a president's day sale this morning, and since I'm remodeling a bathroom, I wanted to go check out the discounts. What is the late stage capitalism is wrong with this picture?! SIX DOLLARS -- Wow, you really did something with this.

Can we all admit now that capitalism isn’t the best driver of innovation and creativity…

There’s something I need you to know - something that is true for every business owner, no matter what your long-term goals are… Everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) would be better off if you built yourself out of your business. #agencyowner

Can't decide which was worse today. Realizing that my architect made every single interior wall too small in the plans I already submitted to the city for my home renovation... Or reading that Vulture article. (definitely the second)

@hankgreen.bsky.social I can’t stop thinking about the post you did a year or so ago on Tik Tok creator compensation vs YouTube. With the app probably leaving the US, I’m curious: Is YouTube still better in terms of pay? What would be the benefits and drawbacks or Tik Tokkers moving to shorts?

As momentum builds to divest from Meta, I wonder how many Tik Tokkers are not already on Instagram. If you already have a community over there, it’s difficult to give up, but reach is 💯 pay to play, meaning there’s little value for new accounts. Folks not joining at all is the best play.
