When I was at Brex, there were moments when things got difficult. But we didn’t just jump ship to Ramp.

Loyalty matters. Your reputation matters. When you choose to join a team, you should own both the wins and the losses.

You often see the pretty side of startups from the outside, but there’s an ugly side to building too. Tough to see this.

Boo hoo I'm making $500k and my live is hard

[Emily Dreyfuss @EmilyDreyfuss]

Today I published an interview with an anonymous Meta employee who has worked at the company for over a decade and wanted, for the first time ever, to let the world know how horrible it feels to be inside. https://t.co/eXXPbiQhmV

[moneyfetishist @moneyfetishist]

Paul

You peaked at Engagement Manager at McKinsey

In 2015

During the easiest economic conditions in a century

Your other credential is Operations Manager at Amazon

40,000 people hold that title simultaneously

That is your resume

That is what you are standing on when you tell strangers how to conduct themselves professionally

You have publicly discussed failing with matchmaking services

You have posted multiple times about entitled women

You pay for a service designed to produce dates and it produces nothing and you blame the product

The man who cannot generate interest through a system engineered to generate interest is giving unsolicited professional advice to strangers at midnight

You look like you moderate 4 Discord servers

You post like someone whose opinions have never been requested in a room with a door

You carry the energy of a man who corners people at conferences and doesn't notice them looking for the exit

Then you posted a 7-tweet thread about social media killing $300K job offers

You used your own social media to publicly police a stranger's selfie

And then lectured the internet about how employers judge social media

You are the red flag in your own thread

I scrolled through the profile you decided to correct

It is mostly pictures/selfies of her running

Running consistently

Which if your McKinsey brain could still produce a thought without a 2x2 matrix you would recognise as a signal of discipline, accountability, and someone who can commit to something long term

That is literally the trait you claim to value in your thread about professional credibility

And you looked at it and saw a selfie problem

Because your pattern recognition is so broken by whatever is happening in your personal life that you cannot process a woman being visible without experiencing it as something that needs to be corrected

You absolute fucking moron

The information was right there

You had the data

You drew the wrong conclusion

That is not a social media literacy issue

That is a you issue

And it explains the matchmaking results better than anything I could write

If I was hiring and saw a candidate doing what you did I would pull the offer before the background check finished

Zero social calibration

Zero awareness of how unsolicited corrections land

HR incident within 90 days

"Could care less if you listen"

It is "couldn't care less"

"Could care less" means you care

Based on 4 follow-up replies to someone who was clearly not interested you care significantly

About a stranger's selfie

At midnight

"Genuine feedback from a place of kindness"

Every person who cannot mind their own business uses this sentence

It is not kindness

It is the compulsion to correct people who did not ask by someone whose authority to correct is visible to nobody except himself

The Halo Effect is one of the most documented cognitive biases in existence

Decades of research

Every industry

Presentation affects perception

You know this

You resent it

And you process that resentment by lecturing strangers instead of fixing yourself

Paul

You are a loser

I say this because the pattern is specific

A man who is unhappy

Who cannot generate the respect he believes he deserves

Who processes that by diminishing strangers who did nothing to him

It has never worked

It will never work

You are the common variable in every failed interaction you have described on this platform

And maybe if you stopped spending your evenings correcting strangers on the internet and started being a genuinely decent person things would change

Not because you learned a technique

Because you became someone people don't instinctively avoid

That is the only thing that has ever worked

It is free

It requires becoming less of what you currently are

You are not going to do this

You are going to read this and feel attacked and post something about how "the haters prove the message resonated" and learn absolutely nothing

Because that is what you do

That is all you do

NGMI

Everyone can see it Paul

Except you

I scrolled through the person's profile you decided to correct

Most of the pictures are running content

That is someone who gets up and runs

That is discipline

That is accountability to yourself

That is the exact quality you claim to value in your shitty thread about high-performance careers

A person who runs consistently and posts about it is demonstrating the same trait you lecture people about from your McKinsey Engagement Manager pedestal. but your ex-consulting brain can't produce that thought without a 2x2 matrix and a hypothesis-driven framework to arrive at a conclusion that a normal human being sees in 3 seconds

you are genuinely never going to make it, to the place where you think your heading

and speaking of things you produced that nobody asked for

"I wrote the book nobody in a corner office wants you to read"

"Reviewed by 7 consulting partners and PE MDs who refused to be named"

Refused to be named

7 people reviewed your book and not a single one of them was willing to have their name associated with it publicly

You framed this as mystique

This is not mystique

This is 7 people who read your book and said "sure Paul it's fine but please do not tell anyone I was involved"

that is a restraining order from your own endorsers

"Every email you send is a power move. Most people just don't know the rules"

You are writing about email power moves

In 2026

A man who peaked at middle management 12 years ago wrote a book about email strategy and got 7 anonymous reviews from people who are embarrassed to know him and then went on the internet to tell a stranger that their selfie is unprofessional

This is the most complete portrait of a man who has absolutely nothing going on that I have ever assembled and I did not have to try hard because you provided all the materials yourself

You are a clown Paul

An actual clown

With a book nobody will read

Reviews nobody will claim

Opinions nobody requested

And a matchmaking profile that produces the same results as your career advice: nothing, for anyone, ever

Everyone can see it

Except you

[Bryan Johnson @bryan_johnson]

This is her vaginal microbiome report. 100/100 score.

Top 1% of all vaginas.

Her sample is dominated by the single most protective bacterial species a vagina can host (Lactobacillus crispatus).

Only about 25-30% of reproductive age women globally are L. crispatus-dominant, and “dominant” usually means above 50%. Kate is at 98.7%.

The lab found nothing bad to report. (no gardnerella, Candida, STIs, opportunistic pathogens, aerobic vaginitis markers, etc.)

This is linked to lower risk of BV, UTIs, yeast infections, HPV persistence, HSV-2 and HIV acquisition, preterm birth, and improved IVF outcomes.

A vaginal microbiome is downstream of everything: sleep, glucose control, stress, gut health, sexual health, immune function, what you eat, and what you put in it.

Why the fuck is a ngo employee making 300k?????

[Alec MacGillis @AlecMacGillis]

"Sheryl Cowan, 57, was making $272,000 a year as a senior VP at a U.S.A.I.D.-funded nonprofit when she was let go at the end of March 2025. Last month she had an online interview for a $19-an-hour job managing a Penzeys Spices store in Falls Church, Va."

The pitch is that she is the daughter of bill gates my friend.

[Jon Chu @jonchu]

I don't work with @PhoebeAdellle at KV and I didn't really get the pitch. But I'd be pushing KV to get our money out if she said yes to this!

That would show she has no concept of capital.

Here, she shows up as an operator who understands the levers of her business.

[Autism Capital 🧩 @AutismCapital]

You can have all the money in the world and still be referred to as the "fatty at LinkedIn"

Lmfao the entire GTM team at Cluely left...CMO, Head of Marketing, CRO, kekw

[alexa @AlexaKayman]

10 days ago, I stepped down from being the CRO of @Cluely.

After a yc fintech at 16, scaling legacy co's, and supporting 8 figure deals, Cluely was a one of a kind experience.

@im_roy_lee and @neelyweely23 truly think, live, and build differently. I'm wishing the tribe the best.

I'm excited to pursue hard problems in new industries this year. TBA soon : )

[Flushing’s Finest Skewers @jephphbezos]

As much as I dislike Cluely - the desire to win is admirable. All the virtue signally fuckers should just keep their mouth shut and watch the market playout.

[Roy @im_roy_lee]

@Andrey__HQ would you rather have 1,000 people your app or nobody use your app?

the alternative to 1,000 people having a bad experience is nobody having any experience.

and the upside is that just a few people have good experiences, which is often all you really need.

Software engineers are finding out what the warehouse operators found out 10 years ago

[Adam Rackis @AdamRackis]

My god I need to find out who in my AWS interview loop was responsible for rejecting me and buy them something nice for Christmas

[Todd Saunders @toddsaunders]

At least once a week someone pitches me an “AI roll-up.”

And almost every time, the person has never built anything with AI… and has never rolled up a single business.

Very few understand the unsexy work a roll up brings: integration, pricing, culture, systems, debt, churn, real AI workflows.

Feels like this is the new “I got an mba and want to buy an hvac business”

[Flushing’s Finest Skewers @jephphbezos]

You clearly have no idea how venture capital works. Keep covering Apple for WSJ big boi :)

[Rolfe Winkler @RolfeWinkler]

Roelof led $300m round for Bird and $250m round for 23andMe. Both zeros at this point?

tech used to feel awesome because you could be from some random ass high school and make cool things

now it feels like people care about what college / accelerator / VC ppl just raised from. i hate that

[Flushing’s Finest Skewers @jephphbezos]

@EvanZhao6 Literally this guy is a shit grifter and the worst type of founder. Anyone seriously considering joining please send them my way.

Fired from SKIO.

On his knees begging for more money.

Current team quit.

Pivots from AI to ad agency and is now pivoting to AI after seeing Sora.

I would beat the shit out of my child until they build the mental resilence to not be this weak.

[berni @itsnotbernhard]

Just wrapped an interview with a candidate.

Palo Alto born & raised, Palo Alto High school, Ivy League CS, internships at tier-1 startups & ai labs.

On the call he literally melted down from the pressure.

Parents, peers, expectations, he was completely overwhelmed.

Palo Alto parents, please love your kids.

Please put aside your own ego and just love them.
