I want to hug Boris' neighbour.

@genmon I use Superpowers and built afterloss.uk entirely with it. Live and with real users. It hasn't gone off track once.

claude skills... superpowers by obra OR compound-engineering by EveryInc? (or both?)

After someone passes, you have to contact the bank. The council. The pension provider. The insurance company. The utility companies - all of them. And explain, again and again, what happened. Our new Communication Kit gives you word-for-word scripts and emails for 18 notification tasks, all tailored with your specific details. Know exactly what to say before you dial or write.

A short story about AI and its potential* My dad died last year I found death administration a nightmare General guides were not ideal I built a directed solution (thank you Claude Code) It resonated = media coverage followed This is now a potential business Afterloss.uk was the result. Lesson: Go build your own solution to problems you see. You no longer have an excuse. *no, this doesn't take into account the ethical issues I am also concerned about.

@paulg I always use the leaking bucket analogy with founders. Simple and it works.

Churn is the worst reason to have slow growth. Churn means you're not just unknown, or that there's a big threshold to sign up. It means people are actually trying the product and deciding they don't like it.

When someone you love dies, the admin doesn't wait. 50+ tasks. From registering the death to cancelling subscriptions. From finding the will to distributing the estate. That's why we built Afterloss. ✅ Every task laid out, step by step ✅ Guidance on how to do each one ✅ Helpful links so you're never stuck ✅ Built specifically for UK families Because grief is hard enough without a to-do list you didn't ask for. 🔗 afterloss.uk - Free to use. #bereavement #grief #afterloss #bereavementsupport #funeralplanning #probate #funerals #ukfamilies

I've been quietly adding to afterloss.uk - 31 step-by-step guides, covering everything from the first days after a death to handling digital legacies. A repost would really help to spread the word. More updates on Instagram → @afterlossuk @afterloss.bsky.social

When my dad died last year, I had to deal with the admin. Banks. Utilities. HMRC. Subscriptions. With only text guides to help. So I built what I needed. Afterloss.uk is a free service helping UK families navigate every step. Share with anyone in need.

If George Shaw is on X, I’d like to commission some work based on recent pics from my childhood estate.

Genuinely can’t see anyone other than Scotland winning this World Cup. What a team man.

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people. Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

Imagine if your country was invaded, tens of thousands of children were kidnapped, maternity wards bombed, tens of thousands killed, and you're expected to sit through lectures about you being the cause of the war and visits to Ukraine to see the truth called propaganda.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

📽️ How much have the US and others given in aid to Ukraine? Who's been the most generous? How does it all compare with previous conflicts? And what's with Donald Trump's money-for-minerals deal? All the answers in my primer, this time with bonus extra charts 🤓

One thread I’m happy to repost on this hellsite.

Thank you for your support! 🇺🇦 __ Дякую вам за підтримку! 🇺🇦

The president’s napoleonic quip about “he who saves his country doesn’t violate any laws” goes back ultimately to Cicero (“salus publica” in De Legibus) and to the conflicts of 63 BC for which Cicero was exiled. Not a great pedigree.
