"Remember all the people who died on Sept 11, 2001 of non-terrorism-related causes. They all ended up just as dead, and their friends were all just as sad. Put another way: mortality is universal and expresses itself in all places and at all times. Why should we care more about people dying merely because a bunch of them happened to do so in close temporal-spatial proximity on one random day ten years ago?"

— Ryan Norbauer (via tmblg)

"The system in which we work is full of expectations cast upon us from our first breath. Every degree of success is accompanied by an equal dose of bureaucracy. Any early success that you may have only breeds higher expectations and a burden to deliver. This burden is a weight that often obstructs vision and sound judgment."

"Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."

— Steve Jobs

Best follow up e-mail ever

Hi,

So, the email I just sent about upcoming TinyLetter improvements — including the future move to MailChimp’s excellent email infrastructure — got bungled and went out multiple times to some people.

Not sure if that’s ironic or not.  

But anyway, that issue is being fixed.  By email professionals.  

I’m really sorry for the inbox overload.  And embarrassed.  And I wasn’t sure if sending this follow up makes the problem better or worse.  But I figured an apology was in order.  So.  Sorry.

Philip from TinyLetter

PS- Yes, for those who remember, this happened once before. DAG NABBIT.

PPS- In the ultimate irony, this problem has never happened when any regular user sends a newsletter. It somehow has only happened when TinyLetter, Inc. sends a newsletter. wtf right?

PPPS- Hopefully the move to MailChimp’s back-end will be done sooon. 

PPPPS- Sorry again.

PPPPPS- Last time this happened, I sent a similar follow, and people seemed to appreciate it, which is why I’m sending this one, even though I know it just results in more email.

PPPPPPS- Hug me.
