I gave a short, impromptu speech at the Ron Johnson Empty Chair Town Hall on Friday.
"What are you doing to protect veterans?"
We packed a church, and 17 media members were contacted, but none showed up! 😡

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent.
Veterans will die because of this move.

Welcome to the most motivated day of the year. Don’t forget to channel some of that energy into building systems for when that motivation drops! Systems are more effective than willpower.

What's happening with founders over 40
Building a company in your 40s hits different. Older bootstrapped SaaS founders are evaluating their energy, and reevaluating their priorities.

This is your reminder that you don't have to wait for the "perfect full load" in your dishwasher.
Is it half full? That's good enough.
Dishwashers are very efficient with water usage nowdays, just run the damn thing.
