@gailendavid She’s cool.. lol.

True freedom gives each of us the right to make decisions about our own life – how we worship, who we marry, what our family looks like. And we believe that freedom requires us to recognize that other people have the freedom to make different choices. That’s what @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz believe.

@BillAckman @realDonaldTrump @lexfridman @KamalaHarris Please stop.

Put aside any preconception you have about @realDonaldTrump and watch this long-form interview of Trump by @lexfridman. You can learn much more about who someone in this format compared with the curated excerpts of a biased media. Then consider why @KamalaHarris won’t accept Lex’s invitation for an interview (which for Trump has already received more than 2 million views) and prefers the teleprompter. The Harris campaign is the first time in American history of which I am aware that a presidential candidate is doing everything possible to avoid the media. One can only conclude that: Trump wants you to know who he is, while @KamalaHarris doesn’t want you to know her truth.

@FrankLuntz Polls are currently irrelevant. Thank you for this. Not.

Two A+ rated pollsters, polling more than 1,700 likely voters on the same day – with two wildly different results. TIPP Insights 🔵 Harris: 47% (+4) 🔴 Trump: 43% (Previous poll was Harris +1) AtlasIntel 🔴 Trump: 51% (+3) 🔵 Harris: 48% (Previous poll was Trump +2)

According to @ddale8's preliminary count, "Trump made at least 33 false claims." Harris made at at least 1.

@FrankLuntz Frank, you are blowing this tonight.

The moderator just fact-checked Trump like Candy Crowley did to Mitt Romney in 2012. Although accurate, it jeopardizes her impartiality in the eyes of viewers. #Debate2024

@MeghanMcCain She liked your dad. So……

She’s nervous. #Debate2024

@BillAckman thank you for your medical education background

When my last child was born, on the first day of her life we were told that she needed a HepB vaccine. It was not presented as a choice and I foolishly did nothing to stop the nurse. My older three daughters did not receive the vaccine at birth. Those that question the growing, now 72-shot regimen for children are considered by some to be wackos and anti-vaxxers. I think the skepticism is appropriate and prudent as we are obligated as parents to make sure that we are not causing harm to our children who are not capable of providing informed consent. Our society needs to complete a careful review of vaccine protocols including the risks associated with the cumulative effect of all of the vaccines we are giving children. We have been working for more than a year to find a credible and independent group to do such an investigation but so far have not been able to do so. If you can help us do this important work, please contact us at info@persq.org.

@natmiletic A nomad kinda fantasy. Little to do with reality..

Rate my setup

@Masterworks Where is the customer service???? I am not seeing much for an investor like me.

@jeffjarvis I suspect that quality plays a role here…

This internet tells me that to deliver five-minute remarks, I need to pare down to 750 words. I'm tempted to go higher given that I'm a fast-talking New Yorker. You all have any guidance on length/time?

@ShaanVP Sometimes I wonder if obvious advice like this is obvious to the people who need this advice. Guess not. So here’s to hoping that they get it once and for all…

Dear anyone who wants to be a "creator" or "build an audience" in 2024. There's something you should know... Here are a few of the non-obvious lessons I've learned building a 500k+ followers & 100M+ downloads: #1 - WHO follows you is far more important than HOW MANY people follow you. YC tells founders "you'd rather have 1,000 customers who really love your product than 1,000,000 people who just kinda like it" I have similar advice for making content. WHO follows you is way more important than HOW MANY people follow. Followers & subscribers are the fake t*tties of content. They're a distraction. Ignore them. Would you rather have 1,000,000 people, chosen at random follow you? Or half of Fortune 500 ceo's love your work? You're not 'buliding an audience', you're actually building a 'magnet' which attracts a certain type of audience. Create the content that will attract the type of fan you want. #2 - You want to be "known well", not "well known" Fame is the wrong goal. You want a narrow set of people to know a lot about you. Become famous within your bubble. How do you become "known well"? You have to share stories, hopes, dreams, fears, & obsessions. Teach your audience the 5 D's: *Done - what have you done? what's your track record? *Deliver - what do you offer people who follow you? *Do - what do you do for work? for fun? *Dreams - what do you want outta life? (eg. Gary V wants to buy the Jets) *Dork Out - what are you really into? what do you collect? If you do this, you'll magically notice that the more content you create, the luckier you get. Your fans will know what articles to send you. What deals to invite you into. What concert tickets to give you. What introductions to make. #3 - OK that was a long answer- which reminds me. There's no such thing as too long, only 'too boring'. #4 - Don't worry about your writing style or production quality. A+ content with C- delivery is a great starting point. C- content with A+ delivery is a death trap. Don't waste hours on packaging. Spend years living an interesting life, so that you actually have something interesting to say. #5 - Create a binge bank Your content should be bingeable in a 1-3 hour sitting. Let people stumble down the rabbit hole of YOU. A lot of content will get no attention, until you finally break thru...and then your back catalog of content becomes super important. #6- The rule of 100 People ask @MrBeast for youtube advice. He tells them all the same thing: - everyone sucks at the beginning - make 100 videos - each time, try to make one thing better (eg. the hook, the thumbnail, etc.) By video 100, you won't need his advice. You'll be winning. Put in 100 focused reps before expecting results. #7 - Pick the platform that suits you Every platform works. Long form. shortform. text. video. podcasts. Don't tangle your brain trying to pick the "best" platform. They all work. Pick the one you enjoy doing. If you like writing, write. If you like short videos, do that. #8 - No matter what platform you pick, don't stop writing Writing is thinking. Good writing is good thinking. Writing is like a doctor's checkup for your brain. #9 - People don't want information, they want a feeling. Think of your channel as a little shop at the world's most crowded market. People don't follow you because of what you know. They follow you because of how you make them feel. Give them the feeling once or twice, you get a follow. Give them the feeling daily, you get a diehard fan. MrBeast makes people feel happy. James Clear sells the feeling of control over habits. Tony Robbins sells inspiration. Soul Cycle sells a satisfying sweat. Figure out what emotion you're selling, and then do it consistently. and lastly (and most importantly): the golden rule of life is "treat others the way you want to be treated" well, the golden rule of content "retweet @shaanvp the way you want to be retweeted!"
