Adam Simone 🍃

Have spent the last six years shaving the planet, I always joked that I’d lather my next business be in selling soft cushiony cotton balls. Well this is pretty close. getsmoosh.com

@soundslikecanoe 👋

Scrolling twitter today seeing all the mutuals

@MattMullenax Huge if true 🕵️‍♂️

Our nightly bug walk just got a massive upgrade

@AaronOrendorff Well shoot, happy birthday young man.

Today’s my birthday. I’m 44. And 13.5 years sober. Age ain’t s*** … anybody can get older. Very few of us get to change. No matter how dark it is, there’s hope. It’s all grace. All of it.

@jacob_posel Finally, something to do this weekend

@AdmSimone Let’s goooo

@jacob_posel onboarding with HQ I've been influenced.

@ugmonk Huge haha

Thanks for a big week! Feels good to have our new site live and nothing major broke 😅

@codyplof I have some errands I haven't run in ten years, if you have time, I have a list 📝

No job. Zero meetings. GPT 5.6 tomorrow. I have 4 usage resets remaining. Tomorrow is gonna RIP.

@codyplof @jonesroadbeauty Great job with jrb and great way to step away on your terms. Enjoy enjoying life a little more for a bit 🤘

I am excited to announce that today is my last day as CEO of @jonesroadbeauty. I have decided to step down from my day-to-day role for a mixture of personal and professional reasons. I am incredibly proud of what we were able to accomplish in around 5 years and never thought in my wildest of dreams we would be here so quickly. This has been an incredible ride and I have learned so much from it. We built a bootstrapped, 9 figure profitable business from my hometown in NJ without any wholesale or Amazon. But I also have to be honest with myself about what I enjoy doing and also what the business needs in its next phase. I know for certain this is the right call. Professionally, I'd rather be building funnels and runnings ads than managing people and dealing with various BS that comes with being CEO. I haven't gotten to do the fun stuff in a while. For Jones Road, I know the business will be better served by an experienced CEO who has a different skillset than mine and a renewed passion for the business. This is 100% my decision and I have no shame in saying that even though I helped us get here, I am not the right person for the next phase. And on a personal level, I've poured almost everything I have into this business. I need time to step back, focus on myself, and enjoy life a little more. I am going to be moving to the board and will remain actively involved as an advisor and board member. I am not sure what's next for me. I'm going to take a bunch of time and not rush into anything. MOPS will continue of course. But I have some ideas and will continue building with AI, might take some consulting opps, and then will ponder if I want to start something of my own or take a role somewhere. Thank you to my team, family, and partners for all of your support. JRB and myself wouldnt be here without you.

Ever since I was a little girl, I always dreamt of going viral on LinkedIn.

THE OPERATORS PORTAL IS SO F****** INCREDIBLY GOOD.

@sourfraser Post

I wanna do something with my Instagram. Any experts on here?

@codyplof I feel like my brief time with fable opened up how I use opus a little bit and I agree, it's been strong

I know everyone is missing Fable. But I’ve been super impressed by Opus when giving it the right context, skills and linting and letting it cook. Even on the same model I’m finding it better at ambitious projects and requires less hand holding.

@EmmettNaughton @mbertulli 😢

@mbertulli I find it very funny when people come flying into support swearing because something isn't working right or they are mad about pricing of an App. The message was sent probably from a couch, where you are the boss of your life. you send this swearing message from a couch

How amazing is it that many of us can just do things and call it work? Anything we want. What a time to be alive.

Knicks > Fable 5

@andrewjfaris What if I'm wasting money on both

Many operators are too comfortable wasting money on ad distribution and not comfortable enough wasting money on creative production.

@codyplof Can't believe I didn't see this and wasted the overnight shift. What good news 🤖

Weekly usage now at 1%. (Was 77% thanks to fable). Everyone else get reset?

@andrewjfaris @soundslikecanoe If you need another razor guy to cover while @soundslikecanoe is OOO just tap me in

Also @soundslikecanoe is on vacation so I just really don't know what to do

Seeing that Claude released Fable is exciting. Seeing that Fable uses 2x the compute as Opus really makes you ask yourself how good you think Opus is.

@austriker27 @sourfraser @LeafShave I'll take pretty awesome 🫡

@sourfraser @AdmSimone @LeafShave It was pretty awesome, not sure it's the best ever though 🙃

Hey thanks @AdmSimone for the shaving gear! 🌿

Is the Beard Out? 🏔️

@austriker27 @LeafShave Heyyyy hope you like it. Love the glacier soap
