Sooooo comprehensive, inclusive #SexEducation (which, btw, studies have demonstrated reduce the rates of sexual activity, STIs, and adolescent pregnancy) is “sensitive content”? 🤔🤔🤔 @Twitter, please explain. @talktabu @VibePlanetSxEd

@KatiaAmeri Oooooo!!!! 😏🔥

🛠️ STOP COLLECTING LOGOS AND START BUILDING. We just launched a16z speedrun Alpha. We’re giving technical students and recent grads a $20K grant (equity-free!) + up to $250K investment to start building pre-idea, pre-team, pre-entity. We can also match you with a fast-growing portco. There’s a structural shift in how startups are being built. The leverage per builder has gone up significantly. A single strong engineer can now ship what used to require a team. But the path into startups hasn’t kept up. You usually get funded or recruited only after you’ve collected enough logos. Meanwhile, some of the best early engineers are already shipping code that people use, and that signal matters more than internships or logos. Enter, Alpha. We believe that if you start earlier → momentum compounds. Alpha has two tracks: Found a Startup: Dreaming about an idea but haven’t formed an entity, raised capital, or built a team yet? Get a $20K grant upfront to build, with up to $250K in investment available. Join a Startup: Join a fast-growing portfolio company as a full-time engineer. Spend your time in the codebase building the core product shoulder to shoulder with founders and early teams. The Fellowship Experience: Starting in June, you’ll kick off with a retreat, then spend 8 weeks in rooms with some of the smartest engineers, founders and VCs in the ecosystem. Most importantly, you’ll form life-long relationships with peers also building the next generation of startups. ☺️ Companies formed by Alpha fellows automatically qualify for a guaranteed final-stage interview for our flagship program, a16z speedrun. Nominate + tag anyone you think would be good below 👇 Apply now: alpha.a16zspeedrun.com Huge thank you to @andrewchen, @justmazer, the entire @speedrun team and Equal Opportunity Ventures for helping bring this to life 🚀

@AngieScariano @ChatterboxKeirn Show me the clip of her hounding Denise?

Part of me will always empathise with people going through a difficult time. On the other hand, I can’t help but think what Kyle and her shadow are going through is their karma for the cruelty done to Denise in S10. Accusing her of cheating with that girl, sick! #RHOBH

Never forget the ones that saw you at your lowest point, and instead of offering judgment and distance, they extended presence and grace—those are your people.

On major life decisions, the purpose of seeking advice is not to get answers. It’s to gain perspective. No one knows what's best for you. They can only share what makes sense to them. The most important question to ask is not what you should do. It's what you might be missing.

@VivHo I thought I saw you there!! Okay definitely saying hi next time. Such a great event!

Kudos to ⁦@KatiaAmeri⁩ and the a16z team for hosting a 🔥 kick off event for SF tech week. ⁦@aliwong⁩ is an inspiration and attending with my coworkers! Happy end of AAPI month too 💚

My Forbes editor is asking for an article about how AI can (negatively or positively) impact DEI in the workplace. Anyone with expertise and lived experience have something to share about that?

Surround yourself with people that inspire you. Influence is huge.
