OK I'm redoing the substack.

This time I'll write it a bit like I would write a textbook on strategy and operations.

(except I'll be less obsessive about finding the right references every time since it's just a substack and very much "take it or leave it" kind of advice)

So let me get this straight.

Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.

Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.

Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.

Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.

And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”

Please.

holy shit 0.75% of the token supply for making an introduction??

Man I need to up my rates, christ

[Jack Kubinec @whosknave]

Interesting one that I missed: Neel Somani sued Solayer last year. Solayer brought Somani on as a strategic advisor in exchange for 0.75% of the token supply, worth over $20 million at peak, but terminated the agreement before TGE due to online allegations of sexual harassment against Somani.

What strategic advice did Somani give? Per the lawsuit, he made an introduction with an investor and advised Solayer co-founder Rachel Chu on how to sell tokens/equity on secondary markets before and around the time of Solayer's TGE.

Case was filed in San Francisco district court. Link: https://t.co/YAFZpTOG27

Your CEO should be strong.

Your CTO should be wise.

Your COO should be wicked, cunning, of mysterious origins, fluent in the dark arts, blurry in pictures,

when my dog was a puppy we had to get him a pumpkin (a small one, thankfully) from the stalls outside a Tesco because he wouldn't leave without it

He had it in his bed and rolled it around the house until it started to look soft and then I threw it away

[Puppies 🐶 @Puppieslover]

He loves watermelon, so his human gifted him one whole watermelon as a "toy." He has now achieved peak canine happiness and all stuffed toys officially obsolete… would play a melon 🍈 fetch with him

microbiome influencers have discovered the mouth is connected to the arsehole

[Andra @BioavailableNd]

One of the coolest fungal findings in the research: brushing your teeth 2-3x vs 1x/day lowered Candida Albicans not just in the mouth… but in stool too. Your oral microbiome and gut microbiome are deeply connected.
