The tension between the pursuit of meaning and paying the mortgage is legitimately humanity's main quest right now.

1/ While the recent Executive Order cutting funding for PBS is deeply concerning, I’m excited to share some good news as a counterbalance: the progress of @collabfund’s joint venture with @sesamestreet.
We launched Collab+Sesame in 2016 as a pre-seed and seed-focused fund with a simple but powerful thesis: as tech entrepreneurs come of age, they would create a new wave of products and services to transform the kids’ space. The launch was covered by Wired, The New Yorker, Fortune, Fast Company, TechCrunch, and more. It was even highlighted by @msuster at Upfront Summit - so the stakes were high!
TL;DR It is working.

Markets will recover long before things are clear and people will say "wow, amazing, so strange, makes no sense" even though that's the entire 200 year history of the stock market.
