Building an amazing popcorn company and making content.

Let me know what you'd like to know about making it in ecommerce in 2025

Things like how the tariff is really crushing me this month, OMG.

Fair :)

But as a biz owner, the move to QBO and slowly getting out of manual spreadsheets and having someone else manage stuff frees my brain up to do things I am better at.

But I don't know how many lines your sheet has, totally up to you :)

You could probably bring in a bookkeeper to handle a lot of the inputs for you pretty cheap.

So we’re gonna screw over the Etsy businesses but Apple gets exempted.

The Luka Doncic Trade Is the Dumbest NBA Move I’ve Ever Seen There’s no living this one down. In a trade that makes zero basketball sense and will go down in NBA infamy, the Dallas Mavericks are sending prime Luka to the Los Angeles Lakers. For real.

I wrote about the worst trade I’ve ever seen: www.theringer.com/2025/02/02/n...

@maryjblige.bsky.social liking one of my tweets just made me the happiest man of the day.

well we both know if it was a Democrat they would not be saying this at all. They'd be screaming about executive overreach.

They know how power works and they are weilding their power through this person

By a longshot, the most common mistake people who are into politics make - from seven-figure strategists to randos offering Takes online - is overestimating how much attention normal people pay to politics, how much they know, and how deeply they think about it.

*Vastly* overestimating.

i was once part of an HR meeting because a guy had done the jerking off motion at work, and he went to the mats insisting that the motion was mimicking feeding bread to ducks. and now this.

This is the best thing in the last week on the other app.

All these attempts to lengthen life, to stay young, keep your hair, defy wrinkles, is energy you could be putting into better things and embracing all of our eventual ends. Enjoy life, don't fight it.

Canada (and the UK's) problem is both health care systems are being slowly undercut and underfunded. Not enough will power in the government to fully fund and adjust taxes.

Two things:

1. He has so much money you think he's post-US citizen thinking: Less about protecting your community because yours is now just oligarchs

2. Bro has an underground lair in Hawaii to survive end times. He's a doomer like half of the crypto fam, just waiting/willing the collapse

Serious ? for you, Conor.

As long as the path to moderate voters goes through hyper-partisan channels (non-legacy media) why do we talk so much about what the Dems need to do to win instead of the massive apparatus walling in centrists from hearing a centrist message?

We're watching the X decision to throttle and kill link sharing destory the platform in real time. Anyone coming for real information is just inundated with misinformationa and propaganda instead of facts/what's actually happening.

Would love to see this place be more than a liberal safe space.

Folks are mostly missing the forest for the trees re: the recent Meta announcement. Specifically, the focus on the move from fact checking to community notes. There two different changes that are a much bigger deal that have received less focus. 🧡 1/11

Honestly it's not that much more/less than Meta takes so we are all passing that on to the consumer.

It's actually more consistent because people are ready to purchase on Amazon vs social ads. Necessary to win. Amazon is about 20% of Popsmith (Tal and I still owe you free popcorn, right)

I hear ya'll say things like "X player is so good, he's gonna draw guys to take less to come to this team"

That hasn't happened for Giannis, etc. Does this actually ever happen?

One of the crazy things about health insurance is your doctor (insurance approved) can send you down the hall to have something immediately done and that isn't covered by your insurance.

You won't find out for about 4 months. You just get a bill.

We launched Popsmith into Costco's .com

Yesterday they did an organic post highlighting our brand. Its something that, in past brands, I would dream of getting.

It translated into no lift on sales.

Sometimes FOMO is a mirage. Its not always greener. META is everything

Most of those folks are downstream of marketing from a non-seed oil product. Its astroturfed alarm to get you to shell out a few dollars more per bottle.
