Lauren

Welcome to the family, Sophie Grace Jenkins 🎀 We are already smitten with this chubby-cheeked lady.

@adambain @davidbfischer @dickc Congrats AB and @dickc 🍾

We have raised a $395m Fund 3! Even better: @davidbfischer, former Facebook CRO, is joining us as Partner! techcrunch.com/2023/11/07/01-… After years of competing against David, it’s amazing to be on the same side of the table now. @dickc and i feel so lucky to work with him :) Our for-operators, by-operators fund is prob the only one where the partners have previously taken their companies from $0-$123B in yearly revenue. (Yes, David represents $121B of that!) And, @LiatBycel has joined us as an Operating Partner to work with our portfolio companies. Liat helped grow Airtable to $200m ARR — she’s incredible! Our focus is still the same: We come in right after companies have found product-market-fit and we help with scaling and GTM. We are mostly Series B but also late As. We love B2B SaaS (most of what we do) but would like to find some more consumer biz too! We work with Founders at a very critical time: when their companies are scaling and those Founders/CEOs are looking for help from people who have been there before. If you’re a Founder who is about to go thru a scaling moment, my DMs are open!

@gigisaca @Etsy As a seller on @etsy this is highly concerning that you would shut down a shop without an explanation when no policies have been violated. How am I supposed to trust Etsy as a seller platform? Please give us answers.

@Etsy review criteria or discuss your account status further, if you have questions related to your Payment Account please review Etsy’s Payments Policy. We’re unable to reconsider this decision and can no longer respond to further messages about your account status." CC @jenks wtf

@Etsy -- opened up a shop, got like 30 sales, and you shut it down. I then did an appeal since we broke NO etsy violations and got this back. Care to...elaborate? "This is X from Etsy’s Member Services team. We appreciate you taking the time to file an appeal with Etsy (1/3)

I'm here for the ride, but Elon just flushed billions of annual earned media down the toilet. While at @TwiitterMedia I lead an effort to quantify the value of earned media for Twitter's brand on TV. TLDR, few companies could afford to buy the advertising we got for "free" 1/9

@MDCinMT 🥺 sending the world’s biggest hug to you and your family. I’m so so sorry to hear this.

Rather than mourning the loss of both my parents in two months, tonight I am celebrating that they won’t spend another moment apart after 50 years of marriage and an amazing life that they created together. I’m going to miss you, mom!!! ❤️🥺❤️

Please share this 🧵if you know anyone in leukemia research or pediatric oncology who may be able to help my dear friend and his daughter:

@djcap This is creative and amazing (no surprise). Thankful for you, @djcap!

@LauraLChan So insane. We made it 💪🏼

If flying with 5 kids, 3 and under, isn’t hardcore, I don’t know what is!

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to act excited about the art my toddler is bringing home from school these days

@zacmacphee @bdmeegz Make. It. Happen. Now! Babies forever.

Same

🤍

@rafaliou @TwitterDev We are better because of you 💙 Happy 1st Twitterversary

@courtneymalee 😭💙😭💙

It's been one hell of a run. This experience will never be replaced. Thank you to my incredible Twitter family... you inspired me and made me laugh every. single. day. I love you Tweeps. 💙 #LoveWhereYouWorked

@ABridenhagen @znh @TwitterDev It was the best of times.

@jenks @znh @TwitterDev I remember that day! The most fun team 💙

Twitter gave me the opportunity of a lifetime and connected me with the most incredible and inspiring people. We overcame obstacles and always stood up for what’s right. I’m so proud of the entire @TwitterDev team and all they’ve accomplished. #LoveWhereYouWorked 💙🫡

@MDCinMT @compston @TwitterDev @cassiestewart @kimwu @kennykhlee @dihelander Mark 💙

@compston I got hit by a truck and ended up with verbal issues for months afterwards… the entire @twitterdev team showed up for me and had my and my family’s support while I recovered without blinking an eye. @cassiestewart @kimwu @kennykhlee @jenks and most especially @dihelander 💙💙💙

@maeloveholt Chief Happiness Officer 💙

@znh @TwitterDev We’ve always found a way to laugh when shit hits the fan. Why would this be any different?

@jenks @TwitterDev Not sure how the laughs got in there but I think it’s perfectly fitting.

@kjudge24 One word: Legend

@tjlull 💙

Fuck. Also sorry for everyone left behind. Be strong and always do what you think is right.
