@LoufactsIGB Prenups are literally a contract on how the assets get divided. Her not signing tells me she feels she can finesse even more. Smart move. And yes if the roles were reversed I’d can her smart for the same reason. You can give a lot without leaving yourself open for robbery.

Happy black history month 🫡

@Raindropsmedia1 Nah, they asked nicely. As someone who’s done a few orders before deciding to never touch the app again, when I had to deliver 26 gallons of milk to a coffee shop and 17 cases of soda to an office both for less than $3 in tips, I realized how entitled customers can be.

Woman calls out her Instacart driver for accepting her order with 6 cases of water, then asking if she could come downstairs to help bring up the 6 cases of water. Thoughts? 👀🤔 🛒

They attempted to speak over Joy Reid, but she wouldn't tolerate it; she was ready to state the facts whether they approved or not. The United States has tried this in various countries around the world, but it never ends well.

Billionaires leaving CA after encouraging people to vote on the matter is hilarious

@EcomPixel @DhammapadaCom @PlayoffSports_ Bro, how is an athlete plus another athlete going to ruin the bloodline? They both have great genes. Try another excuse for kissing your male cousins.

@DhammapadaCom @PlayoffSports_ Bro you're a cuck. No good father wants their daughter to end up being a mudshark and destroying their bloodline.

Look at Chloe Kim’s dad’s reaction when her and Myles Garrett kiss 😭

@ivyowowo @hashjenni People trying to excuse their mindset and those who probably want or have raped

@hashjenni who said anything different

Rape is 100% caused by the rapist. There is no "sharing of fault"

The fact that all AI model providers say advice is the number one use proves we have a serious mental health problem and even more so an issue with affordable availability of mental health services.

The body’s tea, yeah but the face is dish water soooo 🤷🏾‍♂️

Wish you bought in on the last bitcoin crash? Hope you’re paying attention now

May be the #1 parenting mistake of the past 20 years: parents treating iPads/tablets like mini-televisions. iPads/Tablets significantly damage a child’s brain. How can we stop parents from giving their child tablets? What can be done to get schools to stop using tablets?

We explore the incredible story of Michael Hollis, a visionary Black entrepreneur who founded Air Atlanta in 1984, challenging racial barriers in the airline industry and creating opportunities for Black professionals despite overwhelming systemic obstacles.

They said that if you don’t pay, you’re the product. I’m starting to think that, even if you do pay, you’re still the product.

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

@Ovalfps @hockeyfrank26 @kirawontmiss Thank you!!! It ain’t that hard. They have the funds in their account by the 3rd. The transfer process is not the tenant’s responsibility.

@hockeyfrank26 @kirawontmiss The time it takes for cashapp to pay out is not the tenants responsibility. If they are THAT strapped where a few days fucks them, they should sell their property. They aren’t financially fit to be a landlord.

This Landlord is upset because the tenant pay rents on time… thoughts?🤨

We don’t need more Saas cost. Starting a business on AI makes me nervous. It’s not from a distrust of AI but from a distrust of corporations. We’re running with everything they feed us. We now trust a corporations black box more than ourselves. That’s crazy.

@nickgraynews @boringmarketer @gregisenberg I hope you never stop telling people.

@boringmarketer Hi! I saw your recent podcast with @gregisenberg and loved it One request: would you please use Cloudflare instead of Vercel? I think it is much better!

@agazdecki Claude said have money and invest lol. Now I just need it to tell me where to get the money from. 😂

“Claude, I want to be a founder... But I don’t want to build, sell, hire, manage, market, get rejected, or really work at all”

@nickgraynews Amazing story and so happy for you brother. Congratulations 🎉

I got engaged this past weekend. We're going to get married and then hopefully start a family. That might be enough of a post for most people But since I've been public with my dating life, I want to reflect on this for a moment A year ago, the thought of getting married wasn't even on my radar. And yet now I'm in love. So I'll tell you what I did. And I'll tell you how I changed my mental models on dating, why I love this woman, and what comes next. First, my life was pretty good Or at least it felt incredibly full. I built businesses and made some good investments. I lived in NYC, moved to Austin, and just generally loved the thrill of dating and hosting events. My freedom is what I valued the most. I could fly anywhere in the world on a whim I could pack a bag and go to Japan just for fun, and then leave the moment I got bored. Being single felt like absolute freedom. I loved it. But about a year ago, something changed. I did the Tokyo blind date thing. Then my sister had a baby. And all my best friends started having kids. I looked around at my life and things just felt a bit more flat. The dating experiences that used to thrill me were starting to feel empty. I was getting older, too, and I started to feel like my time was running out. I realized that I wanted more. I wanted to share my life with someone, and I wanted to start a family. So I got strategic about it. Which I know is super nerdy and doesn't feel romantic, but I had to change something major with my lens on dating I read books on relationships, I interviewed friends in happy marriages, and I thought a lot about what my non-negotiables were. I created a framework: big stuff versus small stuff. Small stuff was what I'd always focused on. Looks, style, wit. These are the things for me that create instant attraction. Big stuff was the foundation. Values, wanting kids, where they want to live, how they treat people, and what a successful partnership means to them. For too long, I'd screened for the small stuff first. Attractive? Check Fun? Check. Good enough! But finding a life partner meant flipping the order. I thought I knew what I wanted, but my intuition about what would lead to long-term happiness was often dead wrong. I had to look at the big stuff first and be willing to walk away if it didn't align, no matter how gorgeous or charming they were. So I started being direct on dates and telling people that I was interested in a serious relationship. Then came the hard part: showing up. One Tuesday evening, dead tired from work, my friend Katelyn invited me to Barton Springs Pool. Every bone in my body wanted to stay home and keep working. But I went anyway. Lauren was up on the hill reading a book. She looked supermodel beautiful and was exactly my type. The book caught my attention. She was reading Being Mortal by Atul Gawande, which is not exactly a fun poolside read. I walked over to chat her up. Small stuff got me there, but the big stuff kept me talking. She had a rare confidence and a quick wit. When she talked about her family, there was a warmth I didn't know I'd been looking for. Three hours into our first date, I asked her if we should get married. But that was too bold. She laughed it off and said she'd think about it. That was ten months ago. We've spent nearly every day together since and moved in together earlier this year. Now she's become my best friend. When I get too intense, she grounds me. When I miss details, she catches them all. She pushes me to grow in ways I'd never push myself. Lauren has a rare gift of social grace. She can talk to anyone about anything. Venture capital one minute and cowboy boots the next. The first time I joined her family for Rosh Hashanah they welcomed me with open arms. They roasted me, teased me about my affinity for name tags, and brought me into their world. Seeing how close they all are - how Lauren talks to them daily, how proud she is of her brothers and cousins and dad - I thought, "I want this. I like this." Last weekend was her birthday. We went out to California to talk about our future. About kids and about what building a life together really means. I asked her again if she'd marry me, and this time she said yes. It feels big. It feels right. And I'm super happy for what comes next.
