It's been a minute since I've been 'live on air' and what a joy it was to do it on Chicago's very own @WGNRadio with the great veteran journalist John Williams. If you're keen to listen, we talk all things Kidsy Inc at 24 minutes in. https://t.co/9hDfI3o9Ng

Kidsy has closed an oversubscribed pre-seed round (always wanted to say that!) our first fundraise after launching out of beta 6 months ago. Deeply grateful to our investors who supported us with immense conviction. H/t @TechCrunch for this exclusive: https://t.co/NCSD9diU34

So true. You also give up the right to be lazy, self-serving, self-preserving and so many other things…. If you’re on a team, you work for the team. You do not work for yourself.

Today my 3 year old, out of the blue, wrapped her little arms around my neck and said “I wuv you soooo much!” Every fiber of my being filled with happiness and I am convinced that being “wuved” is infinitely better than being loved.

Watching all the boardroom drama unfold at #OpenAI feels like watching the season finale of #Succession.

One of my favorite journalists. Watching her do what she does is a masterclass in good journalism. Congrats on 40 years at CNN Christiane! @amanpour https://t.co/q5sFVSS7Vl

Sunday mornings in bed with my husband and our 2 smiling, giggling daughters, discussing pancakes vs breakfast tacos is a 10/10 feeling.

Renaming Twitter to X is among top 10 dumbest decisions I’ve seen over years. Twitter’s brand & everything it represented was crystal clear in our minds. To “tweet” & “tweeting” became a verb & part of our language - the holy grail of marketing! What is X? Are we X’ing now?

@ngoel36 I recommend The Startup, Tehran (on Apple TV+), Peaky Blinders and Mirzapur (Hindi series on Amazon).

[Shraysi Tandon @ShraysiTandon]

@_Faraz @ngoel36 Mirzapur was amazing. Currently watching Scoop on Netflix, episode 4 and totally hooked. Think Mirzapur vibes + investigative journalism + Bombay underbelly.

Great time to be building a business that tackles sustainability.

Overheard at Kidsy: 'Make money from saving the planet rather than destroying it.'

I spent 3 years making a documentary on child labor in global supply chains. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would use my supply chain management & distribution knowledge ever again. And here I am, using it in my startup, every single day. Life is full of surprises.

5 years of being on the board of this incredible organization & every year their impact is more profound than the last. Join us on May 24th in NYC to celebrate the annual @ReelWorks gala. If you can’t make it, you can still support by going here —> https://t.co/a7wOfIPw6H

A lot of people/businesses will also finally get the Twitter handle they want which squatters have been sitting on for years.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

We’re purging accounts that have had no activity at all for several years, so you will probably see follower count drop

@teresa_stern So great. Buffett drinks a regular Coke everyday. Is that the fountain of youth?! 🤔

[Shraysi Tandon @ShraysiTandon]

At the #BerkshireHathaway annual shareholders meeting listening to Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger drop gems. Can’t believe Buffett is 92 yrs old & Munger is 99 yrs old. More impressive than their net worth is their ability to remember dates and numbers like no other!
