The Imbox is such a terrible name… Ugh.

Oh no, even ChatGPT is doing the "hey" thing...

Haha, what’s the minimum requirement?

Hello! Glad to know I’m not the only one!

Ok, I’ll bite — what’s AI?

… But it said to?

What extension do you use with QB for Stripe?

Pez dispensers. Nobody is actually buying refills for those things.

I knew you were thinking that.

This is how I feel when my kids don’t laugh at my jokes. I just keep working on the jokes. Not swapping out the kids.

So when will we learn more about Bench and its abrupt and terribly-timed shutdown?

Hey @justinwelsh.me! You should know there’s a fake Justin on here too — bsky.app/profile/just... (They just followed me.)

The perfect gift for this holiday season — impersonation?

Atlassian Confluence?

(Not to mention, we have the kindest and most thoughtful users -- mental health therapists! Even when there's a hiccup, they are so understanding and helpful.)

You met your wife on Survivor, no?

(I've been off social media for a while, is this still a valid joke?)

The overhaul to Quill's note configuration/settings page may or may not be influenced by the UX of Domino's Pizza and I may or may not have recently ordered pizza.

An anthropomorphic bean.

Just so I understand this correctly: Your head resembles a bean, or your head resembles an anthropomorphic bean's head?

See attached for an anthropomorphic bean. Note that there's no clear separation between body and head.

But is it really fine? At what point does the place you love stop being the place you thought it was? And what does it say about you if you keep showing up?

This is how I feel about people still sticking around on Twitter.

5/5

Soon, you start overhearing the things they’re saying. Racist, sexist, downright toxic. You notice some of your old regulars joining in with them, adopting their way of thinking. It’s unsettling.

Still, you tell yourself: It’s fine. My friends are here. I’m still having a good time.

But now, new groups are gathering at the bar -- people with values that clash with yours. At first, they seem to stay in their corner, so you try to ignore them.

Then things start to shift. Elon’s making some odd statements, firing staff left and right. The bar still looks the same, though, and your friends are still there, so you keep showing up.

Django. Let's talk about how awesome it is. I'll start:

It's super awesome.

Dude on the back right is like "Uh, the boss just scratched this information into a $5k board room table..."

A lobster closing an enterprise deal.

I took the liberty of taking this post and then framing it as coming from a lobster. I hope you don't mind.

I'd love to connect with other like-minded SaaS entrepreneurs. I'm from the midwest and not super into the tech-bro culture found elsewhere.

I haven't visited Twitter in many many months and I've been missing some sort of conversation and/or memes with friendly folks.

Hey all! Giving Bluesky another try after listening to @tracyosborn.com and @robwalling.com on Startups for the Rest of Us.

A quick intro: I'm a developer and entrepreneur, finally finding some sort of product market fit (after many duds) with QuillTherapyNotes.com, which I founded with my wife!

Any fellow SaaS entrepreneurs here?
