A business idea I had awhile ago was a platform that allowed you to self-bundle different streaming services. At the time, it felt like it would be impossible to get buy-in from streamers, but now…

Well the pen is $2,500, so maybe don’t tell me more…

🖋️ 100 Years of MEISTERSTÜCK — Montblanc (https://youtu.be/tUSRyAha37w)

A Wes Anderson commercial for Montblanc and a Wes Anderson designed Montblanc fountain pen, you say? Do tell me more!

As I’ve tried to evolve foofaraw into something more, this really resonated with me. Finding that balance between saying “hey check out the cool stuff I’m making” vs the overzealous self-promotion that starts to feel gross (both internally and externally) is tough. https://mastodon.world/@goodenoughllc/112293049745745854

Remember Colossal, the art blog?

I want to do that, but just highlight dope ass websites.

I want to make a podcast where I get to have long, meandering conversations about art and creativity and emotions and vulnerability with the people that make said dope ass websites.

    I just had the weirdest interaction I think I've ever had on Mastodon.

    If you start an interesting thread, and don't want people to comment on it, perhaps it should have been a blog post with locked comments to begin with?

    @andycarolan I’m 80% sure I know who this was. I used to follow them because I liked their design work, but awhile ago they went on this long rant about how it’s hardly ever okay to reply to people and they aren’t on social media to hear from others. It was bizarre so I unfollowed.

    So, hypothetically, if I wanted to setup an experimental online store for physical products, what would be the most cost effective way of doing this?

    I'm happy using Webflow, but it's not cheap... so I won't be using that to start with.

    My skills in HTML and CSS are very limited, so I need something visual to build upon.

    Setting up images and branding is of course no problem.

    Advice appreciated!

    @andycarolan to quickly go and avoid platform fees, you can set up a product with Stripe and embed that on your site. I assume their fees are less than something like Gumroad and BigCartel. I did it once before for a zine I mailed—probably should’ve done that for my stickers instead than KoFi…

    @humdrum@social.lol avatar

    @andycarolan yeah, that makes sense! Here's an example of a Stripe embed, just as an FYI, anyways..

    If you ever wanted a t-shirt with the wonderful foofaraw foof logo designed by @andycarolan, I've got great news for you! The two shirts up on the store will always be available, but I plan to do LE versions every quarter or so. And paid subscribers will get a discount code tonight. Stickers are imminent too!
