Most of my time is spent doing SEO, the other, I'm not sure. Per Deus, Ad Astra. Hic sunt leones.

Adulting so hard I forgot there's a new season of Abbott Elementary.
And with the way things are going, I won't be able to see it till like Christmas. Nice one, adulthood.

You can make free bank transfers on the Credit Direct App, grow your money with Yield(also a feature on the app), pay cable, electricity bills, and take loans. It’s basically the full package.💚

It was such a lovely conversation with you as well!💚
And yes, you’ve all heard our interest rates are up to 21% p/a🧏🏽♀️. Use Yield on the Credit Direct App!

At @Zikoko_Mag's #Nairalife, I visited @YieldwithYield's booth out of curiosity and to try my hands at some free merch🙃.
They onboarded me, and the experience was smoother than I expected. Weeks later, I realised it had replaced one of my apps entirely.

Please Everyone, I need your help.
From the accident, she has fractures in her hand, leg, and pelvic region. The doctor said the surgery will cost about ₦5 million. It is extensive and will be done in two phases.
First they will operate on her hand and leg. When she recovers from that, they will do the pelvic region.
It has been a painful experience. We have already spent so much on drugs and medications just to keep her stable this far. The pain is still there every day.
A lot of you have followed this from the day of the accident. You have seen the updates. You know what this has been like.
Please, if your heart can move you, even ₦1k, ₦2k, ₦5k, ₦10k, or ₦20k from you will help us. Every little bit carries weight right now.

If you want to confirm or even visit to see how she is doing, please call or WhatsApp me on 08014616027.
Please help me share this too.
I need the support.
Thank you for reading this far.
If you were the one that did a HIT AND RUN at Ogudu express, Lagos yesterday evening, just know that it was my wife you hit.
I FORGIVE YOU, I really do.
Getting the call and the news was heartbreaking and caused tears but I FORGIVE YOU.
I FORGIVE YOU
I'm grateful to and for the Man that kept her conscious rendering first aid till the Ambulance got there.
He even stayed and helped till midnight (few minutes ago).
I'm so grateful 🙏

High agency is your greatest asset when the odds are stacked against you.
Growing up with limited resources teaches you that waiting for perfect conditions means waiting forever. You learn that nobody's coming to save you, not because the world is cruel, but because everyone's fighting their own battles.
High agency means you stop asking "why me?" and start asking "what's next?" It's seeing every constraint as a puzzle to solve, not a wall to stop you. No connections? Build them. No capital? Start where you are. No mentors? Books, podcasts, and observation become your university.
The beautiful paradox: those who start with less often develop more agency. When you've never had a safety net, you learn to build wings on the way down. You become resourceful in ways that privilege can't teach.
Your background isn't your destiny, it's your training ground. Every obstacle you've overcome has been building your agency muscle. The hunger that comes from scarcity, when channeled right, becomes the drive that refuses to accept "that's just how things are."
The path isn't about forgetting where you came from. It's about using that perspective as fuel. You see opportunities others miss because you've learned to create value from nothing.
Agency isn't about denying systemic barriers exist, it's about refusing to let them have the final word on your story.

Claude build this and make no mistakes.
every week someone tells me they’re going to vibe-code their own @beehiiv alternative over the weekend.
wishing them the best, here’s the backlog of things to make sure to include:
> 99.3% email delivery rate (industry-leading)
> team of deliverability experts with decades of experience
> infrastructure to send 3M+ emails per minute
> validating every single email submission (1st and 3rd party)
> automated bot-detection to prevent spam signups
> registering for every mailbox provider’s feedback program
> ingesting data from said feedback loops and building suppression lists
> tagging every email so gmail reports complaint rates per newsletter
> classifying every bounce (hard, soft, mailbox full, DNS failure) and knowing which ones mean “try again” vs. “never again”
> three layers of suppression: global, per-publication, and transactional
> temporary suppressions that expire on their own, and permanent ones that never do
> one-click unsubscribe, the way gmail and yahoo now require it
> warming new IPs and domains on a schedule
> watching blocklists around the clock, and pulling an IP from rotation the moment it’s listed
> retrying deferred mail for 24+ hours before calling it a bounce
> blocking disposable, invalid, and typo’d addresses before they ever reach the list
> rate limiting every signup endpoint a bot can find
> filtering bot clicks out of every report (something we pay an ungodly amount of money for)
> an acquisition source on every subscriber
> engagement history for every reader, across every post
> multiple sender addresses for different emails
> custom domain configuration that is aligned with DKIM, SPF, DMARC
> a true WYSIWYG editor: what you write is what lands in the inbox, with no HTML required
> turning that editor into table-based, inline-styled email HTML that holds up in outlook
> real-time collaborative editing, so the whole team can work on the same issue at once
> dynamic content: different sections for different readers, all in a single send
> separate email and web versions of every post, from one draft
> free and premium versions of the same post, split by a paywall break
> merge tags that personalize every email, and a simulated subscriber to preview them before you send
> templates with saved colors, fonts, and spacing, plus a default style for every post
> columns, tables, buttons, blockquotes, sections, file attachments, and a table of contents with anchor links
> native embeds for X, youtube, tiktok, instagram, bluesky, stocktwits, and podcast episodes
> polls, referral blocks, recommendations, and ad slots, built right into the post
> an AI writer, AI images, and a built-in AI agent one keyboard shortcut away
> images resized and optimized automatically, however they’re uploaded
> a live email-size gauge that warns you before gmail clips your newsletter
> custom HTML blocks, cleaned so a stray script tag can’t break your post
> automatically hiding anything an inbox can’t handle (video, iframes, audio) in the email version, while keeping it on the web
> links and embeds made clickable even in outlook, which ignores links wrapped around tables
> vertical alignment in columns, because a layout that looks off by 4px looks broken to readers
> converting your newsletter to audio versions for readers who prefer to listen
> random cohort sends to randomly split your list to test different content and conversion
> slash commands: type “/” and insert any block without touching a menu
> markdown and keyboard shortcuts for people who never want to touch a mouse
> pasting from google docs with the formatting intact
> search and replace across the whole post
> comment threads right in the draft, so editors and writers stop living in google docs
> footnotes and citations that work in the inbox and on the web
> code blocks, for the technical newsletters
> an AI writer that rewrites, translates, and fixes spelling and grammar in place
> autosave, so a closed tab never costs you a draft
> subject line A/B testing, built into the send flow
> drag-and-drop images, from your computer, your media library, or a URL
> rich-text image captions, plus image titles and alt text for accessibility
> audio files that play inline
> file attachments, so a PDF can ride along with the issue
> sections with their own backgrounds, borders, and spacing
> blockquotes with custom borders, colors, and styles
> content breaks and dividers that render cleanly in every inbox
> a REST API for subscribers, posts, segments, automations, and more
> a send API to create and send newsletters programmatically
> creating, updating, and deleting subscribers in real time
> reading and writing custom fields on any subscriber
> tagging subscribers from your own app
> enrolling subscribers into automations via API
> pulling opens, clicks, and engagement for every post
> fetching post HTML rendered for free vs. premium, email vs. web
> creating posts from a template, then appending or prepending content
> fetching segments and every subscriber in them
> managing tiers and premium subscriptions
> pulling referral program data and milestones
> reading poll and survey responses
> pagination that holds up across millions of records
> rate limits that protect the platform without blocking real integrations
> API keys you can create and revoke anytime
> an MCP server so claude, chatgpt, and other AI tools can work inside beehiiv
> drafting and editing posts from an AI chat
> asking for open rates, CTR, and revenue in plain english
> comparing performance across dozens of posts in one request
> looking up any subscriber's full history and engagement

oh, and besides having to manage all of this on your own indefinitely forever… your vibe-coded solution will still require paying for and stitching together a ton of software:
> email sending (sendgrid, amazon SES, postmark)
> web hosting (vercel, AWS, render)
> database + queue (supabase, neon, RDS)
> payments (stripe, memberful)
> auth (clerk, auth0, supabase auth)
> monitoring + alerting (sentry, datadog, pagerduty)
> workflow engine (inngest, temporal, upstash qstash)
> bot protection (cloudflare)
> email validation (zerobounce, kickbox)
> email rendering (litmus, email on acid)
> click verification (omnivery)
> media storage + CDN (S3, R2, vercel blob)
> product analytics (posthog, mixpanel)
…but at least you saved $59/mo not paying for @beehiiv anymore 🫡
