B2B SaaS Content Writer | Blogs, Case Studies, & Ebooks | Helping SaaS businesses create content assets that boost LTV, reduce CAC, & skyrocket growth 🚀

Most B2B content follows the same formula: identify a keyword, compile what's already ranking, repackage it with your brand colors. Now with AI, this problem has multiplied—tools generate entire blog posts that look substantive but offer nothing new.

Your readers can tell. Enterprise buyers at companies like [specific target companies] are skimming past these articles, looking for genuine expertise.

Working with brands like Zapier, Sprout Social, and HubSpot, I've found three elements that make content perform:

🧠 Primary research from direct customer conversations and proprietary data analysis
🧠 Documented experiences from your team's work solving specific technical problems
🧠 Writers who understand the subject well enough to challenge assumptions and ask better questions

When we work together, your content will:

⭐ Feature specific insights your SMEs haven't shared publicly before
⭐ Present your team's actual experiences solving real client problems
⭐ Come from writers who guide the content direction, not just fill in templates
⭐ Generate qualified leads from enterprise companies actively seeking solutions

Ready to create content that shows genuine expertise instead of algorithmic proficiency? 

Let's talk.

Conversational conversion copy for B2B businesses.


I'm really excited about the shift I'm making in my business.

Being an "order taker" was draining me mentally and professionally. I wanted to offer more value to content teams, but l didn't know how to position myself to do that.

A client would say: "Can you write this post about X topic?" or "Can you update this page?" And I'd execute the brief. That was the relationship.

But now?

I'm coming in as a strategist with a clear program: Analyze what's working in your content library, identify quick wins, and prioritize updates based on traffic potential and business impact.

I'm not just delivering content anymore.
I'm delivering improvements to their
organic traffic and conversions.

Even with startups that have smaller libraries, I'm playing a much bigger role in how their content performs overall rather than just focusing on individual pieces.

I have actual ownership over the results now. 

Not just "here's vour deliverable," but '
lle."

And that’s making all the difference.

I help B2B SaaS companies fix content rot before it kills their credibility | Historical Content Optimization Specialist for B2B SaaS

I just finished writing a piece about content decay for Relato, and one stat stopped me cold.

If you have 200 outdated articles in your library, manually auditing them takes 600 hours. That's 15 full workweeks of someone just... checking if things are still true.

And that's one audit. One point in time. Three months later, your sources have shifted again and you're back where you started.

Traditional fact-checking can't keep up. By the time you manually verify one article, dozens more have already started decaying. You're always reactive, never systematic.

But there's a better way now.

Companies are building AI agents that crawl content libraries, extract every verifiable claim, score them for credibility, and flag exactly what needs updating before readers or Google notice.

Relato built something called RECEIPTS that does this at scale. It audits claims against reliability, evidence, currency, expertise, independence, precision, traceability, and sensitivity. Instead of manually checking hundreds of pages, you get sorted lists of high-risk claims with suggested sources.

I know exactly how much time this saves because I've actually been building my own agents to do something similar.

One agent audits messaging consistency across entire libraries.

Another flags missing expert insights.

Another identifies high-authority content that's declining because of outdated data.

It’s made it possible for me to build an entire service line around historical content optimization. Without these agents, I wouldn’t have time to take on several clients at once.

The point, of course, isn't to eliminate human judgment. It's to stop burning human hours on work that shouldn't be manual.

CMI found that 39% of marketers cite resource constraints as their biggest challenge. You don't solve that by hiring more people to manually fact-check. 

You solve it by building systems that prevent decay from spreading in the first place.

Content rot is inevitable. But catching it before it costs you rankings and credibility? That's a choice.

If you want to read the full article, I’ll leave it in the comments.

I used to spend 30-45 minutes analyzing an article before I typed a single word.

When you’re optimizing an entire content library (50+ pieces), that’s 25+ hours of just… looking at stuff. Here’s how I’ve used AI agents to cut that time by 70% (without losing quality):

First, some quick context.

Companies assume the hard part of content refreshes is the rewriting. It's not. 

The real time sink is everything that happens before you touch the draft: 
checking for cannibalization, assessing search intent, figuring out where product mentions make sense, identifying internal link pathways.

And I was asking myself the same questions every single time. For every single article. Toggling between tabs, spreadsheets, and SERPs like a human cross-reference machine.

So I codified my thought process into five agents. Each one solves a specific problem I was seeing over and over:

1/ Product Integration Agent

Most companies either over-promote or don't promote at all. This finds the organic moments where a product mention actually adds value.

2/ Keyword Cannibalization Agent
Scans for articles competing against each other for the same keywords. Happens constantly in big blogs where multiple writers have worked over years. Maps it all out and recommends consolidation or differentiation.

3/ Search Intent Alignment Agent

If someone searches "project management software" and Google is showing comparison posts, but your article is a guide, you're fighting uphill. This catches those mismatches.

4/ Internal Linking Architect Agent

Most companies link randomly or based on habit. This creates actual architecture.

5/ Answer Engine Optimization Agent

Optimizes content for ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other AI search tools. Restructures content to be more quotable and authoritative for LLMs.

Before I built these, I'd be doing this manually for each article. Pulling it up, reading through, cross-referencing with other content, checking SERP intent, mapping internal links. 45 minutes to an hour per article just for analysis before I even started writing.

Now? I run the agents, get my strategic brief, and jump straight into optimization. What used to take an hour of analysis now takes maybe 10 minutes of active work.

I still check every suggestion. I don't implement everything they recommend. The agents get me 70% of the way there.

But that 70% is how I can realistically handle large-scale optimization projects. If a client has 25 articles that need updates, I'm not spending 50 hours on analysis alone. I'm spending 8-10 hours total, and most of that is the agents working while I do other things.

The hard part was never the writing. It was everything I was doing before I let myself write.

Don't believe the hype. You don't have to choose between optimizing for Google and optimizing for LLMs.

The structural improvements that make content "Al-ready" (clarity, hierarchical structure, authoritative explanations) also make it stronger for traditional search.

It's not an "either/or" situation. It's just tightening the foundation so the content performs across both channels.

I haven't seen a lot of companies doing this with their existing libraries yet. Most are just creating new content for Al.

I think that's a mistake. If you want to prioritize AEO over the next few months, you don't need to reinvent the wheel. You just need to fold it into the optimization work you should already be doing.

Don't wait until you disappear from the results to fix your library. DM me to learn more about how I can help.

Buyers aren’t asking ChatGPT or Perplexity, "What is sales automation?" They're asking, "What's the best sales automation software for small teams?

And where does AI pull answers to buying questions from?

Roundup articles. Listicles. Comparison posts.

It doesn't crawl individual product websites and synthesize the features. It finds the existing BOFU content and quotes from that.

Which means if your "Best X Software" article is outdated, you're invisible or oudated in the exact moment buyers are ready to purchase.

I tested this recently. Asked ChatGPT for e-signature alternatives. It pulled from roundup posts. The information it gave me was based on whatever those articles said, whether accurate or not.

If your BOFU article doesn't mention your updated features, AI can't recommend you properly.

If your pricing is wrong, AI is giving prospects bad information.

If your competitor comparison is stale, you're losing deals you don't even know about.

This is why I think BOFU refreshes should be the first priority for anyone thinking about answer engine optimization. Not because TOFU doesn't matter, but because BOFU is where the money is. And that's where outdated content hurts the most.

Most content teams don't have historical optimization in their job descriptions. 

They're hired to create, not to maintain.

But every day, your outdated content library is quietly working against you. In every search result. In every AI overview that pulls from your outdated information.

The fix isn't complicated: update what's working instead of starting over.
But it requires someone to actually own this process, and most companies just don't have that person.

So the work gets treated like an afterthought and constantly deprioritized.

Until your traffic tanks and you fix one blog post at a time, like whack-a-mole, forever and ever and ever.

😬

Every month you don't address this systematically, the problem compounds. 

You're publishing more content on top of the mess. The backlog gets bigger. 

The inconsistency gets worse.

You never catch up because you're always reacting.

Make 2026 the year you plan for historical optimization instead of reacting to it.

I share writing & editing lessons so entrepreneurs & founders can attract + convert high-value clients | Edited 3M+ words | Former Head of Content | Running on seltzer 🤩

I help solopreneurs and founders turn their scattered expertise into content that drives business. AKA, I get you out of the "recognition gap."

I've been there.

After 4.5 years as Head of Content, I went solo and made every mistake in the book: scattered messaging, feast-or-famine revenue cycles, content that got likes but zero leads, relying on referrals like my business depended on it (cuz it did).

Then I had my 'aha!' moment: Stop trying to be known for everything. Own one specific problem so I can become the obvious solution.

Yo writers that are upset AI exists are so...mean. Hurt people hurt people as it goes. Heads up as someone who has hired/will hire more writers in the future, it makes me not wanna hire you. I'm sure many others feel the same.

Your high horse that "real" writers would never touch AI and anyone who would is evil leaves no room for nuance, progress, and actual realities of markets.

Please, have your values and stick to them.

But also please, stop yelling at people who dare enjoy a new tool that helps us work faster and make more money.

While also still wanting to hire good writers!

But yeah not you if you're gonna be an absolute psycho on LinkedIn.

Also attacking people's character, education, and experience for anything you disagree with on LinkedIn always says more about you than [insert person you're trying to hurt].

My toddlers are more mature.

Edit: Someone argued against AI in the comments by saying this:

"You need to be an subject matter expert to spot errors it makes. 

It is psychologically harder to fix existing text due to multiple cognitive biases compared to creating the text by yourself."

To which I replied:

"these two sentences describe my entire job as an editor, which is why I love it so damn much. And why editing, in my opinion, is harder than writing."

Sometimes I feel like the only editor on LinkedIn but hi I know you're out there other editors.

Offer design & content for scaling solopreneurs | Co-Founder @ Duo Consulting | Running on seltzer 🤩

The real work behind LinkedIn “inbound” is outbound.

LIES: You just post consistently and watch the inbound roll in. (Especially if you sell services.)

TRUTH: You post content to open engagement loops. Then you close those loops yourself by starting real conversations. First in the comments, then in DMs.

Of course pure inbound exists. I get inbound leads often.

But that’s only after years of time here and, regardless, relying 100% on inbound means you’re leaving so many deals in the dust. So yeah I get inbound but I also start DM conversations all the time. 

Take our client Brian.

Brian spends about 7 hours a week starting conversations.

He has roughly 20 going at any time.

He gets a 30% booked call rate from those conversations.

And he makes a lot of f*cking money. 

(He loves making a lot of money but that's just Brian. The actual amount isn't the point. Having enough money to love your life is the point. And that requires getting clients.)

Regardless of how crazy Brian is (HI BRIAN) you do need to find a biz dev situation that works for you. 

And that number needs to be higher than 0 hours a week.

Cuz whether you like it or not, when you work for yourself, biz dev is literally part of your job description. 

You should be spending ~1/3 of your time on it. 

Especially if you’re in services. Services = the relationship business.

You don’t need thousands of people to become customers. You need 2-10 clients per quarter.

So TLDR:

-Posts open engagement loops
-The DMs close them
-Sometimes prospects start those conversations
-But you also need to send DMs
-Yes, inbound is possible
-But even so, stop waiting
-Go do biz dev 
-Cuz you run a business
-And you need clients to pay you to keep running said business

That’s the game. Love it or hate it.

My twins are 3 today. I was really scared of becoming a parent cuz I wasn’t sure I’d be any good with little kids. Turns out, “good” doesn’t mean good at playing silly games or doing funny voices or making some crafty thing they’ll obsess over. It means loving them even when you suck at all the above. So by those standards, I’m doing pretty great. They also make me wanna bang my head against a wall but I’ve never loved anyone who doesn’t make me wanna do that from time to time so. 

TLDR: loving them hard = good enough ❤️

I get this question a lot so here's the answer: 7 months. That's how long it took for me to shift my audience upmarket.

7 months ago, most of my connection requests + engagements were coming from content people, freelancers, writers. 

Today, most of them are coming from founders, co-founders, senior marketers in-house.

Other FAQs + answers:

-Yes, my engagement dropped for a few months during the shift
-No, this did not impact my business
-In fact, I'm making more MoM revenue (consistently) than ever before

How I did it:

-Shifted from talking purely about content to growing and scaling your solo biz + occasionally how to do that with content
-Shifted away from "how to" content and focused more heavily on marketing the problem
-Vigorously followed our MP3 framework, focusing on my new ICP (market the problem, process, proof)
-Posted LESS often, but higher impact
-Still comment the same amount

TLDR: My upmarket audience doesn't need to know how to do things themselves. They need to know that:

1) Someone deeply understands their problem
2) Has a process to solve it
3) Has proof that the process works
4) A reliable partner exists to help them scale their biz

How to content is wonderful for engagement and teachable moments but if you're a service provider, in my experience, it's going to attract downmarket buyers who aren't ready/don't have the cash to invest. 

(Doesn't mean don't do it, but instead wrap it in your process rather than a viral teachable moment)

"OK, I get MP3 (Problem, Process, Proof). But what about the personal stuff?"

We've had this conversation at least a dozen times since releasing MP3.

Fair question.

Some of the most magnetic solos on LinkedIn share way more than their frameworks. They share their kids, their existential crises, their "I don't have this figured out" admissions. And it works for them.

So is that a fourth P? And do you need it?

Here's what we've landed on: MP3 is required. MP4 is optional.

MP3 = problem, process, proof
MP4 = problem, process, proof, parasocial

My co-founder Nick Bennett 🏴‍☠️ doesn't do parasocial content. It's not his thing. Hasn't hurt his business. 

Last month, Anthony Pierri admitted he's never posted a personal thing ever. He's got a massive audience and a highly successful business.

I do share parasocial content. The parenting chaos, the mindset work, the unfiltered admissions. It's part of how I connect. But it ONLY works because MP3 is already there.

The trap I see people fall into is when parasocial runs ahead of the foundational stuff.

People get to know you, but not the problem you solve.

So they like you. Maybe enough to get on a call. The vibes are there. But they were never sold on what you do or how you help, so it ends with "let me think about it," and then they never hire you. They keep engaging with your stuff cuz vibes, but yeah, they're not opening their wallet.

The takeaway:

People need to care about the problem you solve in order to hire you. Caring about you may bring them into your world, but it will not make they give you money.

SO how do you decide whether to do parasocial content or leave it?

I went into more detail in my newsletter, so go check it out.

https://lnkd.in/eT78bQ3p

A warning: I know solos with 50K, 60K, 70K followers making less than our clients with 2,000.

Because they built an audience of consumers, not buyers. People who love free education. People who leave "omg this is gold" comments and would never in a million years pay $5K a month for anything.

Once you're known for being known, it's very hard to reprogram yourself because the feedback loop is brutal:

-The personal content gets engagement 
-The dopamine hits 
-You wake up the next day and play again
-More dopamine 
-A month later, you realize you haven't done any problem, process, or proof content 
-A client churns
-"I need a client" 
-So you write something about the problem you solve 
-It gets 10 likes instead of 200 
-You feel like shit because it "didn't perform"
-And now you're trapped

Stuck craving dopamine and money and having no idea how to satiate those needs in tandem.

I am speaking from personal experience because this was me a year ago.

So here's what I've learned, and I hope this helps:

The dopamine isn't real. The money is.

That said, you can have both. You can post the personal stuff, have fun, make jokes, share the chaos. But it has to be layered on top of a foundation, not instead of one.

And yeah, reprogramming yourself to care less about likes and more about income is uncomfortable. 

You have to watch posts "flop" and not spiral. 

You have to trust that the 10-like post about the problem you solve is doing more for your business than the 200-like post about your morning routine.

It takes time. It takes intention. It takes looking at your bank account instead of your impressions.

But it works. I'm proof. Nick's proof. Our clients are proof.

I wrote more about this in my newsletter yesterday. Go read it if this resonates.

LinkedIn lately be like WONDER BREAD, PARANOIA, HUZZAH!

Then half the comments are like CHEERIO CREAMERY GOODNESS, JAKE!

The other half are like “Hi Jake love your take on wonder bread paranoia. We’re both connected to someone named Amanda. Let’s chat ways to collaborate.”

And then we’re all collectively like WTF. TOAST KNUCKLESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

You know?

Hey service providers: If you're constantly drained by your clients, it's not because you're bad at boundaries or because you need to "toughen up."

It's because you're attracting parachute seekers when you want to work with partners.

Here's the difference:

🪂 Parachute seekers want you to do the hard work for them. 

-They need validation on every decision. 

-They second-guess every move. 

-They're ultimately looking for someone to save them.

🤝 Partner seekers know it's going to be hard, but they thrive when they push themselves out of their comfort zone. 

-They just need a guide. 

-Someone to go back and forth with. 

-They're strong, they trust themselves (despite having limiting beliefs), and they want you in their corner as they figure it out.

Here's the rub:

The way you describe your work determines which type of person shows up.

If you lead with failure indicators (everything that's broken, everything that's not working, how bad things are), you'll attract parachute seekers. 

People who are scared, stuck, and don't have the resources (financial or emotional) to actually do the work.

If you lead with success indicators (what they've already built, what they're ready to scale, where they're headed next), you'll attract partner seekers. 

People who are ready, resourced, and capable of executing.

Same problem you solve. Different frame. Completely different client.

Nick Bennett 🏴‍☠️ and I work exclusively with partner seekers. 

People doing consistent $20K months who want to scale to $50K+. 

People who have already proven they can build something, and now they need help optimizing it.

The work is the same. The conversations are completely different.

It all starts with how you frame the problem you solve. Which is why "problem framing" is always the first step in our program.

(Followed closely by engagement model, POV & positioning, then business vision.)

We're gonna write and podcast more about this over the next few weeks, so subscribe to the stuff and things (in my profile).

I've fallen down an N8N rabbit hole and I'm not coming back up. I vibe coded so hard last week my arm started tingling (not in a good way).

These 5 workflows are saving us a disgusting amount of time:

Context: I'm using Claude side-by-side with N8N to help me map out the workflows and write the code for them. I have no idea what the f*ck I'm doing, but it works.

1. Meeting recap automation

When a meeting ends, the Fathom link gets sent to a Notion database, which triggers Claude's API to create a structured recap, then sends it to the right Slack channel automatically.

2. Meeting pre-agenda

Looks at my calendar for the next day, finds just client meetings, pulls up the most recent call transcript, which triggers Claude's API to create a structured agenda, and sends it to the right Slack channel.

3. Sales call to HubSpot

Anytime a sales call gets booked, it creates a new deal in HubSpot and sends us a Slack message with their form details.

4. Voice of customer from sales calls

Grabs the transcript after every sales call and runs it through a prompt that extracts: context about them, direct quotes, pain points, desired outcomes, current solutions, urgency/triggers, and objections. All automatically organized in Notion.

5. Client meeting insights

After every client call, it captures: breakthroughs they had, blockers they're facing, limiting beliefs that surfaced, and content ideas based on what we discussed.

(Bonus) 6. Slack channel history past 7 days

Get all the messages (including threaded messages) from the past 7 days summarized so you know wtf you actually talked to clients about async over the past week. So helpful.

We're about to roll some of these into client workspaces too. They don't even know it yet. Just gonna appear. 

Just sharing because this is genuinely fun. And sharing actually good AI use cases makes the world a better place.

Anyone built anything else genuinely useful in N8N? Or Zapier, which I can just translate into N8N.

PS. I can't stress enough that I am not a developer or ops person so if there are manual ways to do this that are cheaper/better than N8N I'm not interested cuz I have no idea what I'm doing k thx.

"Should I do this?" is a question I bet you've asked yourself 400 times this month with no one to answer.

This is the part of solo life that sucks, tbh. The loneliness tax. The way every decision lives in your head, bouncing around, never landing.

“Should I raise my prices. Should I fire this client. Should I take this call. Should I pivot. Should I hire. Should I wait.”

The longer you sit with them, the heavier they get. Until the thing that would've taken five minutes to decide becomes this massive weight you've been dragging around for months.

Yes, you can join a community. I'm in a few. They help. But there's nothing like one-on-one attention for your problems. It just hits different.

Which is why this is my favorite "I didn't know how bad I needed this" problem we solve for clients. 

Yes we have a foundational program to standardize your offer, apply our MP3 content framework, elevate the problem you solve, improve your sales talk track. All the critical stuff.

But my favorite moments are the ones where clients have been agonizing over whether or not to fire a shitty client, we talk for 20 minutes, they fire them that week, and feel so free.

Or when they've been thinking about hiring a contractor for six months, we clarify what they actually need, and they post the job the next day.

It's an unintended benefit, but a few clients have started calling us their non-equity co-founders. 

Cuz lez be real, most solos don't have the luxury of bringing in equity partners to help them scale, or hiring a COO or a co-founder to share the load.

Boom boom pop. Decisions non-stop. 

So if you're doing $20K+ months and at full decision fatigue, hit me up. This is the work we do. On top of all the foundational stuff we advertise 🤝

Brian's revenue grew 400% cuz he got LinkedIn famous.

JK he's not actually famous. (Or is he?) But his rev did grow 5x cuz he became known for a specific problem he solves. 

Let's go back in time to May.

Brian's posting meh content. He's being consistent but it's not doing anything for his business.

He had demand, but it was all referrals. No inbound. And his outbound efforts on LinkedIn fell flat because nobody recognized him for anything.

So we got to work on his content strategy. Not "post more" or "be more consistent." That's cute but no.

We rebuilt what he was actually saying.

We helped him market the problem he solves, the process he uses, and the proof that it works. 

We ran the MP3 framework.

Suddenly, people were reaching out to him going, "this guy gets my situation."

He also went viral once for a sh*tpost and I was so proud 🥲 

So 7 months in, his content is killing it. He's starting real conversations in comments and DMs. And almost every inbound lead says some version of: "I've seen your LinkedIn content. I have the problem you solve."

That's the power of being known for one thing. 

He's no longer "another option." He's the obvious choice.

Old Brian used to worry if referral's dried up his business would suffer.

Now he's hopping on ~3 sales calls a week with new prospects. All from LinkedIn.

CRAZY.

It's important to note that content can't take all the credit for a 400x revenue increase.

We also standardized his offer, helped him hire contractors, automated his systems to free up capacity, elevated the problem he positions around, and sharpened his sales skills so he closes more of what comes in. It's the whole engine. Content is just one lever.

If you're a solo doing $20K+ months and want help building yours, DM me.

PS. Hi Brian Koffler

Every solo operator we work with feels too successful to complain, but not successful enough to feel secure.

Here's what's usually underneath that feeling (and what we do about it):

1. You're invisible to the people who actually need you 

You talk about what you do instead of the problem you solve. 

So the algorithm serves your content to anyone vaguely interested instead of the people who'd pay premium rates tomorrow. 

🏴‍☠️ We help you identify the 1-2 problems you solve better than anyone and build your talk tracks, site copy, and content to condition the market around those problems.

2. You know what you do but you can't easily explain it 

You've custom-scoped every client. Rebuilt your process from scratch each time. 

So when someone asks "what do you do?" you give them a buffet instead of one clear thing. 

🏴‍☠️ We standardize your offer so every client gets the same scope, delivered through a process you can refine and repeat.

3. Your flywheel is turning but not enough deals close (and you don't know why) 

You're having more conversations than ever. But you're getting ghosted, passed over for competitors, or dealing with tire kickers. 

🏴‍☠️ Small gaps in your sales process are costing you deals. We tighten your sales motion so momentum actually converts.

4. Your corporate wiring won't let go

You were programmed to believe that if you don't beat last year, you failed. 

That mindset built your career and, ironically, it's the thing keeping you stuck now. 

🏴‍☠️ We help you define what "enough" actually looks like so you can build a business that doesn't require you to abandon yourself to be successful.

5. You keep attracting the wrong buyers 

Your pricing and positioning are filtering for the wrong people. 

Price-sensitive. Scope creepers. Tire kickers. 

🏴‍☠️ We reframe your offer around success indicators so you attract buyers who've already proven they can execute, not ones trying to stop the bleeding.

6. You hired help and now you have more problems 

No SOPs. No playbooks. You wanted leverage. You got complexity. 

🏴‍☠️ We help you document what you do so you can actually delegate it.

If you're at $20K+ months and know you're capable of more but can't figure out why it's not clicking, hit me up.

Made a lot of enemies on LinkedIn this week, but a lot more friends.

Some people called my AI post rage bait. Wasn’t my intention, but if you don’t know me, I get it. Easy to assume the worst when you don’t know the full person or nuance behind the commentary. 

It’s almost always the 2nd and 3rd connections that assume the worst btw. The 1st connections get it because they’ve see many shades of you. Easier to defend someone when you know their character. Much easier to invent enemies in strangers.

There’s always a risk when you share polarizing stuff online. But I’ve been at this long enough that I don’t take any of it personally anymore. 

Which is why I take risks and am always unafraid to say what I mean, even if there’s emotion behind it. 

I don’t always get it right but hey I always learn something. 

But let’s be real you could say “I really like waffles” and someone will respond with “how dare you shit on pancakes.” That’s just online discourse sometimes 😂

Anyways thanks to everyone who engaged respectfully. Hearing your side even if it’s different than mine always means a lot.
