chicken w/ head cut off: UNIVERSITIES ARE DYING.
me: nah, they're just shifting format and purpose.

Got to shoot the sh*t w/ the @BloombergTV squad this AM about why so many of the best still want at least a year or 2 of college & post-secondary, & how @DormRoomFund wins there.

More than any time in my career, VCs seem to be underwriting other investors’ interest rather than the company itself.

The @DormRoomFund family did it again! Proud to announce a fresh $50M Fund 2 and a new brand to keep backing the best student and recent grad/drop-out founders.

My favorite part? 30% of our investors in Fund 2 are DRF alums and their firms.

America spent ten years turning a Tanzanian teenager into the founder of an American company.

Then it exported him.

I wrote about it for the @nytimes today. Thread 🧵

❤️‍🩹🇦🇷 Leo Messi: “Dad, you kept asking me to play in one last World Cup… just days before it began was when your condition got worse”.

“It was the first time you weren’t going to be there with me at tournament… but Mom kept telling me you were going to get better and that you’d be well enough to travel”.

“I kept telling you we were going to reach the World Cup final so you could make the trip, this was my mission once again”.

“After every match, I waited for and missed your message. That’s when I realized how serious the situation really was”.

“I couldn’t stop thinking about going as far as possible, give you more time and the chance to watch one of the games”.

“We reached the final, but you couldn’t be there. I wanted to win it so I could bring the trophy to you and show you another one. I couldn’t”.

“My legs just couldn’t give me any more”.

“This time I tried to push beyond what my body could handle, but I couldn’t”.

“I never managed to feel physically right”.

“We didn’t become champions Dad, but you have no idea how much we enjoyed every match. Once again, you were right: I had to be there and play in it… as you told me, always”.

Long post incoming, but I'm desperate at this point and need the internet's help. (For the TLDR, check the replies for links and action items)

So my little sister Chizo has been fighting leukemia for the past 2.5 years. She's been in remission twice, once after a bone marrow transplant from our brother and then again after a CAR-T treatment after another relapse last year. She is now in her third bout of the fight, as the leukemia has returned yet again in December of last year.

She's spent the majority of this year in the hospital and they tried an alternative CAR-T treatment, which did not work this time. Afterwards, the doctors gave her two options: manage her pain and spend time with her family and loved ones until it's time to pass on, or to take a In order to address this third bout, they tried an alternative CAR-T treatment that did not work this time. The doctors gave her two options:

1) Manage her pain and spend the rest of her time here with her family and loved ones
2) Take a life-threatening chemotherapy treatment that can lead to heart/liver failure based on the intensity of it to bridge her to her next treatment, whether it's another CAR-T treatment or a bone marrow transplant if they find a donor.

She's a fighter, so she chose the chemotherapy treatment and is still fighting to this day. So I'm here to ask for y'alls help as she continues this fight.
