That’s when you start to feel alive.
Being seen. Being interested. Finding someone interesting.
At @thebreakfastapp we’re building a culture that encourages this.

Something shifts when you stop steering every conversation toward an outcome. When you get curious about someone. When you meet without deciding in advance what it needs to become. When you stop performing and let yourself be seen.

As AI changes how we work and live, we’ll need places where we feel we belong. Places to exchange ideas, be curious, and spend time together without having to justify it.

And this goes beyond dating. We network, collect contacts, and look for the right people to meet. We get good at finding each other. Getting to know each other takes something else.

Human connection isn’t cheap dopamine.
You can’t order it on Uber and have it delivered in 15 minutes.
Maybe that’s where dating apps went wrong. They promised a match, and we started shopping for matches. The cart is full, but you feel empty.

Most startups raise early capital from professional investors. We did as well.
Before our community round, we raised from VCs, angel investors, and founders who run or sold successful startups. They know the game.🧵

Humblebrag. Why do market research for @thebreakfastapp if someone from a new or existing social app is always coming up to check on us?
184/365/2023 “Fleishman Is in Trouble” is a touching and real eight-episode story about relationships, big decisions, aspirations, and fewer life opportunities as we grow older. Everyone has their own truth, but everyone craves the same — acceptance and love. Amazing dialogues!

In June, for 30 days, I didn't share a thing breaking the challenge I started on January 1st. The challenge was to share a thing I liked every single day.
June was intense, busy, and I didn't feel like sharing anything. Today I am getting back to my daily creative practice of noticing great design, brands, projects, places, initiatives, and people.

"Twitter became about arguing, Instagram became about showing off, Facebook became about people you went to school with saying weird things. The most important role in a social network is the vibe designer because the big questions are sociological, not technological."
