@pitdesi @MikeFernandezCA its a problem with the prop based system as a whole. Most people just don’t have the understanding of any industry to make good decisions here.

@ShaanVP Been saying this for a while. DTC brands control their brand through digital marketing where their customers live and other digital citizens voices never get heard. So if they have terrible internal culture of crummy products, you rarely hear about it.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

People who have been lifelong Democrats refuse to accept the clear reality that the Democratic Party is rapidly become openly antisemitic.

This trend is accelerating, not slowing down.

Knock, knock. Hello, Captain Obvious here!

@DonaldJTrumpJr @TheRightMelissa Kamala wants hardworking American families to pay for clean air and water for illegal immigrants.

@elonmusk seems like weak legal ground here and will likely get overturned before becoming law. Maybe it's just political posturing by Newsom who I assume knows this.

@yacineMTB @elonmusk Unfortunately there’s only so much human feces one can see until you just can’t take it anymore.

Room for us at Starbase?

@NaderLikeLadder @k17ubha Nice work Nader, super inspirational! 💪

@BillAckman It’s not a double standard per se. It’s that Trump is a unique candidate who so blatantly throws aside the values that many democrats believe a POTUS should represent. That’s not to say that he might still be the best option for us.

[Sugam @sweetshugga]

@darshan 💯 sir! You and Neil are an iconic sales and building combo!

Triumph preceded by consequence or tragedy is just so much more enticing

[Nathan Baugh @nathanbaugh27]

Students at NYU asked the creators of South Park the million-dollar question:

“What makes a good story?”

They gave one of the best explanations of story I’ve heard:

“If we can take the beats of your outline, and the words ‘and then’ belong between those beats… you got something pretty boring.

What should happen between every beat you’ve written down is the words ‘therefore’ or ‘but.’”

They go on to say, “That gives you the causation between each beat, and that makes a story.”

Point 1:

There’s an idea in storytelling called ‘Promise, Progress, Payoff.’

Essentially, a story is a never ending cycle of promises that are paid off over the span of the story.

It’s a cycle of expectation and resolution. Cause and effect. Conflict and progress.

Point 2:

A story isn’t a bunch of random events thrown together.

A story is a series of but / because / therefore moments.

A famous example:

• Harry discovers he's a wizard. Because of this, he goes to learn magic at Hogwarts.
• But then he learns Voldemort wants to kill him and rule the world.
• Therefore, he must find a way to defeat him.

Point 3:

The ‘But / Therefore’ concept works in layers.

You can apply it at the line level, paragraph level, or whatever your largest unit of story is – be it chapter, Act, or whatever.

I’m reminded of a Hemingway quote:

“Prose is architecture, not interior decoration.”

Great writing is intentional. It doesn’t wander. It builds upon itself.
