    Our 1517 portfolio is family. It got taken a step further when a founder meant to call me on Saturday and dialed his mom instead. Parents are often our first investors. I just want to be your second!

    Gave a talk yesterday where I shared that non-coercion is a central tenant and value of mine. It’s imbedded from my early days working with children all the way through working with founders. Force is not relationship. It’s manipulation. We can do better than that and we must.

    Learning this everyday that I work in the industry too.

    Respect and honoring of children is a large part of why I do what I do with 1517 and what started as the Thiel Fellowship. K - 12 will only change when the incentives at the top do.

    You should never be judged by "where" you learned something. You should only be judged by what you can do with what you learned!

    Flying for my first time. We are over 2.5 hours late leaving the gate and I hear this is normal. ✈️

    I have qualms with gendered stuff in general in tech but I think this is a neat goal especially from a male founder. I’m always telling people that diversity starts with your cofounders, investors, and advisors. Not when you’re 20 bros deep.

    “Danielle, I’m looking to do something unheard of (at least to me): an all-female pre-seed round. Think you can point me in the right direction? We are consumer/media focused.” Game on! We meet Monday. We don’t do early stage consumer but happy to help. Hands up if interested.

    Feet meet fire. This is so wrong at the individual and organizational level.

    Love getting news like this. Two classes of students at a university will be using my book on professional development as their main course book this semester!

    It's tough to see startups shut down. Even worse when you know the founding team and know how hard they worked to make their vision come to life. A friend of mine just announced that they're shutting down operations and I'm proud that we were their first customers. ✊🏿

    I spoke w/a solo founder who is mid-pivot. Tons of energy invested into the original idea, but it wasn't taking off. We celebrate people that don't give up, but sometimes giving up is the right move. I respect the courage to change direction despite one's emotions & sunk costs.

    Last night in SF: walking home, a guy screams on repeat “I have a big old dick” while swinging his junk around in middle of street. Everyone walks around him. This morning at SFO: my Uber driver who is trying to make rent by driving at 5 AM gets a ticket for dropping me off.

    We’ve said that we could build a whole thesis off of funding companies in nondescript warehouses.

    Rare footage of what can happen to a company’s sense of fiscal prudence after easily raising a lot of money at an extremely high valuation

    There's a fun subreddit called Explain It Like I'm Five, which offers explanations of various topics for laypeople. I wish there was also an Explain It Like I'm Not Twelve subreddit that covered Gen Z speak, TikTok, and all of the other pop culture stuff I don't really get. 👴

    I think 1517 will be giving a $1K grant to that 7 year old in a few years.
