Mother—
I marched upon Atlanta expecting Falcons, only to discover pigeons with a generous advertising budget.
The Peach Brigade was routed, their feathers scattered and dignity plucked.
Let them question my fitness for battle. I question their fitness for war.
Yours.

Hunter is a warrior poet. A hacker philosopher. A synth musician and a physics teacher. A raconteur and humanist with the most balanced enneagram I’ve ever seen. “Soul of the new machine” is his favorite book and they should put it on his tombstone. 🪦. @HunterHusar

One more I forgot until just reminded:
3. Khosla Ventures wanted to invest in our Series C. Vinod took me, Michelle, and Lee out to dinner after he’d given us a term sheet. Near the end, Michelle and Lee got up to use the restroom. Vinod leaned over and said: “I’m impressed with you, not so much with them, what if you fire them and I’ll give you all their stock?” I think the charitable read was it was a test of my character. But I was so offended that we never spoke again. Literally blocked his number.

> Get cut. Get claimed. Get traded. Start over.
> Get your chance in Minnesota when the starter gets hurt.
> Throw the Minneapolis Miracle.
> Help take the Vikings within one win of the Super Bowl.
> Keep moving after that, too.
> Eight franchises. Different jerseys. Different playbooks. Another chance to prove you belong.
> Through all those moves, keep building a life with the girl.
> The girl from the snow-cone date becomes the mother of your two children.
> Spend years preparing for opportunities that rarely come.
> Go 1,009 days without a start.
> Keep showing up. Keep doing the work. Stay ready.
> Then, at 38, get the call. Chicago needs you.

All those years. All those moves. All those Sundays waiting for a chance.
And when this one finally comes, you fucking crush it with your kids looking on.
Imagine what that feels like.
There are a lot of ways to teach your children to keep going.
Letting them watch you do it has to be one of the best.
Absolute legend! 🫡

I’m gonna vent but it’s such bullshit how much better a woman’s company has to be than a man’s to get funded.

John Mulaney says SNL paid him $27,000 for three primetime episodes in 2008 while his rent was $800
“I remember Steve Higgins, Shoemaker and Seth Meyers saying, ‘You’re all gonna get $9,000 an episode times three episodes’”
“I still remember walking home going, ‘I’m set. I’m set. I don’t have to do anything ever again. And my rent is $800. I’m good’”
“I went and bought new pants. There was a brand of pants called Bonobos that had just come out and they looked nice. That was their selling point. They go, ‘These pants don’t look like shit’”
THIS TWEET MAKES 13 YEARS OF MY LIFE WORTH IT. @mulaney I love you. Yours truly, @Bonobos cofounder and former CEO, Andy @dunn

The woman in the photo grew up literally down the road, won 4 Utah state championships (1 in this exact stadium), Gatorade Player of the Year twice, National Player of the Year, scored the fastest first goal in USWNT history…
Could probably be worth a mention, but idk.
can i get a hallelujah from the congregation🙌
pie has a new cofounder. welcome @nadyaokamoto
New from me in @wsjCMO: Pie, the new-ish app from by Bonobos founder Andy Dunn, named Nadya Okamoto as its CMO. It's an interesting hire as Nadya is now known predominantly as a TikTok celeb, but in the healthcare world made her name as the founder of period brand August...
are you a founding CEO who has raised at least $3m from a top-tier venture fund? and want genuine advice from your peers? if so, this one's for you. will admit the first 30 people today. getpie.app/p/019f1e86-e6bc-7…
