Hey startups 👋 when an investor says “Send me your deck” you need an amazing send-it-on* deck...
🤔 But what is the investor looking for, and why?
🤔 And what are some rules that will help you make a send-it-on deck that gets your foot in the door?
A thread below 🧵💡🧵💡

if you ever happen to find yourself shitting in your own car
because you are mad at elon musk about politics
consider for a moment you may be mentally ill
Scott Galloway says he owned a Tesla, but sold it because of Elon.
"Not before taking a giant dump in the passenger seat. True story."
He's gone from suggesting Elon be executed to telling stories of taking dumps in a car he owned because it was made by Elon's company.
This is a broken, deranged and utterly toxic individual.
Tuned into the Kermode movie pod for the first time in ages. Within about 50 seconds he was talking about Ohio politician Vivek Ramaswami. Some people's all encompassing and overriding obsession with US politics actually is starting to come across as a compulsive mental illness
As I listen to a podcast discussing RTEs various commercial woes, I'm freshly reminded of one of the most insane pieces of information my eyes ever did see. "Too Entrepreneurial".

So, based on the 5m+ views here and the tens of millions more via re-shares elsewhere, it seems I accidentally perfected minimal-effort tongue-in-cheek rage bait for English people. I’m particularly delighted with the 20,000 who bookmarked it—presumably intending to use it as a tourist map. Hilarious. But a few clarifications:
1. To everyone saying “but my neighbourhood is lovely”—yes, I know. Notice the minimal effort. Don’t take this too seriously.
2. At the same time, the “London Banana”—which I randomly made up based on personal experience—actually aligns pretty well with a number of quality-of-life proxy maps, such as violent crime rates (which have doubled in the last 10 years), property prices, and more.
3. To the good people of Dulwich: I’ve never been, but I totally accept the feedback.
4. To the angry people of Maida Vale and Notting Hill: You were left out by accident, thanks to a careless swipe of a fat thumb. Sorry, I can’t fix this now. You’re out of the Banana. Deal with it. 🤪

Here's the London Banana clearly visible on the latest house prices data, proving that as much as people might not like the claim, the Banana is real, and people are proving it with their wallets, and banks are agreeing with it by issuing valuations based on this.
