Fascinating. So many questions.
Feels like this could be a really good niche for a real estate agent who has an in with ad agencies, studios, etc?
Also wondering how reliable this is & if it’d allow someone to purchase a better place.

"barn raising” may be the best metaphor for something i’ve been (unsuccessfully) trying to articulate for awhile:
In one day, 100 coordinated people could do a “reputational barn raising” that would take someone a year to do themselves.
Ohio Amish raise a barn.
An impressive work in photography as well: 1600 pictures taken in 10 hours and compressed in 21 seconds (3 minutes and 30 seconds in the original video)

I’d like to think that with enough time, consistent quality gets the attention it deserves, but I don’t think it does. There’s a lot of gamesmanship to Twitter.

Cancel culture is a vicious cycle of forced ideological compliance, which leads to fear-based:
▪️Signaling/agreement. This gives the appearance of solidarity & activism, but it's disingenuous & temporary.
-or-
▪️Silence, which is misinterpreted as approval of the "wrong" view.

In any conversation, you should be able to agree, disagree, or be silent. But cancel culture gives two options: agree, or be demonized.

yes! one of the reasons a community like this is so important. having a kid is a 0-to-1, never-can-go-back thing, which scares people. but if you can get light exposure earlier — I had this with my niece — then you realize how great it is
The atomic family often forces modern parents to choose between pursuing their great ambitions vs raising a kid. Maybe that tradeoff isn’t necessary. Maybe we can create social technology that lets us do both

If you're 14-18 years old and interested in publishing your first podcast episode by the end of January, DM me.
I'm putting together a small cohort as an experiment. I'll walk you through every step, from conception to editing. No ideas or experience needed. 100% free.
Since starting my podcast in January, I've made more meaningful connections in my fields of interest than all previous years combined.
Twitter + starting a podcast (or interview blog, Clubhouse show, etc) is probably the easiest way to break into an industry & grow your network.
