Respectfully, claiming you have fixed health care when you are kicking 15 million Americans off their health coverage and doubling average premiums for many millions moreโ€”thatโ€™s the very definition of a talking point.

I removed all the chairs from my house. Yes, all of them.

Standing desks are for beginners. I don't sit anymore. Not at meals. Not during calls. Not ever.

Why? Because sitting is a dopamine sink. Your glutes go dormant. Blood pools. Your brain gets 23% less oxygen (I measured it). Standing keeps you in a state of "productive discomfort."

Discomfort = alertness. Alertness = pattern recognition. Pattern recognition = product-market fit.

I eat dinner standing over the sink. I take Zooms pacing back and forth like a caged lion. My calves are basically a pre-seed round for my cardiovascular system.

Studies show that 89% of Fortune 500 CEOs do their best thinking while in motion. Churchill held walking meetings. Zuckerberg did walking 1-on-1s. I haven't sat in 6 months and my sprint velocity is up 340%.

Every chair you own is a commitment to mediocrity. Every cushion is a compromise with your future self.

"But what about rest?" Rest is what you do after the exit. Right now, I have deals to close and a burn rate to justify.

My living room? Empty. Just space to pace. My dining room? A war room with whiteboards on every wallโ€”no table.

Sitting is the new smoking. Standing is the new sitting. Pacing is the new standing.

I'm not uncomfortable. I'm optimized.

Don't let Big Furniture gaslight you.

I'll let those who caught them disclose this info if they want to. But news travels fast in PR circles so things will be dealt with accordingly no doubt.

people who built bsky:
-trans women (bsky protects jesse singal)
-Black users (bsky allows rampant antiBlack racism)
-SWers (bsky to implement hostile age verification in UK)
-organizers and activists (bsky autodeletes anyone in gaza with a pulse)
-artists (bsky dev says AI has rights lmao)

Tango Gameworks inexplicably dropping one of the best games ever made in 2013 and then absolutely nobody being able to recreate it including themselves is just so incredible.
