Sunday morning tiptoeing around my kitchen trying to get that first cup of coffee before the kids wake up and realizing millions of other dads are probably also tiptoeing around their kitchens doing the same 😂🤫
🇪🇺 European investor: come back and see me when you generate revenue 🇺🇸 US investor: walk me through the big picture and convince me you’re the right guy to lead the project
🇪🇺European VC at Series A: “can you forecast your paid marketing spend per channel so we can understand your CAC evolution”. 🇺🇸US VC at Series A: “what’s it going to take to crush your competition and be #1 in your category”. You pick :-)

“It may well be that #creativity is the last unfair advantage we're legally allowed to take over our competitors.” - Bill Bernbach
Take personality out of politics and you’re left with human issues: - that roads and bridges are safe and communication lines working - that we’re protected from tainted foods and medicines - that we’re given the opportunity to become productive members of our communities
True but Addison Mitchell McConnell III has gone an entire career not giving a 💩 what is said or thought about him so as long as principles are worthless and he keeps delivering for the people giving him money he has no reason to change.
Mitch McConnell, who blew up Senate norms, and stretched the rules for naked partisan gain, said this: “Changing the structure of the Senate in order to achieve a partisan advantage is a mistake for the Senate and a mistake for our country.” What a monstrous hypocrite
Chalk this up as random but #cannabis is one of the more interesting stories happening at the moment (medicinal, adult use...). Legalization a process but rate at which perceptions and economics have evolved is incredible.
Domestic politics and international relations are one in the same
Yesterday at 2022 🇫🇷 presidential candidate Eric Zemmour rally 😔 Most of these people are pawns in someone else’s game but undercurrents are real and concerns legit. Centrist pols better take this seriously - 🌎 political trend not their friend at the moment…
La 'culture de risque' c'est le seule élément qui manque pour que la France décolle !

There's something strangely satisfying about tweeting to oneself. It's as much about formulating thoughts into a concise sentence as it is about sharing with like-minded (or not) people.
Second 51 for "the things most of us actually agree on" Cannabis is a campaign issue 🌿🇺🇸 #MSOGang @todd_harrison
I’m running for governor. Together, we can push past the small and divisive politics that we see in Texas today — and get back to the big, bold vision that used to define Texas. A Texas big enough for all of us. Join us: bit.ly/30mq3KP
Society has established the #ring on the 4th finger of the left hand as being both a symbol of #union (worn by both people) and its validation of it (civil/religious ceremony). But what if you take the #symbol and leave the validation? #love #life #society #wedding #symbolism
The weak link in the French startup ecosystem has been and continues to be investors, not entrepreneurs. Not surprised that's the case elsewhere in Europe...
Three of my founders came back angry or disappointed from their series B raises as it comes to European funds. - lack of insights on the business - lack of engagement in meetings - lack of energy in the room WTAF. Don’t be surprised if American funds are eating your lunch.
