i almost feel bad for the guy, because someone this absolutely clueless about how he sounds really shouldn't be allowed to post under his own name.
he seems like someone who *genuinely* means well most of the time, but it extremely easy to excite and wind up, and who is just profoundly dense about the wisdom of getting wound up the way he does in public.
on the other hand, the tara reade business was indefensible, exploitative, and gross. if there is ever a writer who desperately needs an editor to save him from himself, it's nathan robinson.
i had a few friends in high school who were well-meaning, wealthier than they realized, and in drama class, and most of them grew out of their nathan robinson stage because, well, it was oklahoma. there's almost something a little charming about the fact that he didn't.
he'd be a markedly more likable character if he just owned up to his wealth and advantages, focused on the areas where he's good, quit twitter, and stopped cosplaying as a rumpled mid-atlantic workingman of the late 19th century.
for everything terrible about him, he's still markedly better as a writer, a thinker, and, i'd bet, as a person, than most of the jacobin masthead, and current affairs could be the real deal with a serious, professional and experienced EIC.
listen, nathan robinson, if karl marx didn't need to pretend that he was a poverty-stricken, threadbare newsie just scraping by to survive on these hard, cobblestone streets, you definitely don't need to, either.

Tip from Alex: Repeat Yourself

Reason: Your main benefit shouldn’t be expressed subtly. Repeat it three times. Make it known.

Example: Apple’s M1 Chip


Tip from Blake: Start with goals for the copy.

Reason: You need to know what you are writing, for whom, and what action it should lead to. No guesswork.

Example: My content engine at

Tip from Alex: Use Open Loops

Reason: Open loops peak a reader's interest by presenting an unsolved mystery to the reader. Our brains are hardwired to find closure. Make your product the final closure. Example: Woody Justice


Tip from Blake: Write short, snappy sentences.

Reason: People have short attention spans. And big blocks of text are super hard to read. Make it

20 Most Important Lesson of 2020

// A THREAD //


It was a fast and weird year.

The year of change.

My life changed a lot and I learned even more.

Here are the 20 most important lessons - which will shape the upcoming decade for me.


1. Systems Are Better Than Goals

In the past, I failed many of my goals.

This year I've realized that it could be caused by the fact that they were goals, not systems.

Thanks, @ScottAdamsSays for helping me realize this.

2. Use Notion More

@NotionHQ is definitely the most useful tool I've discovered this year.

I use it for:

- Twitter
- Freelance CRM
- Content Creation
- Website project management

And for personal use, it's completely free.


3. Email Is Immortal

This year we saw on social sites:

- Shadow bans
- Normal bans
- Decreasing reach (e.g. during the presidential election)

That's why I believe building an independent audience e.g. email list is mandatory.
