@inthehands I listened to the first season of the Startup podcast from Gimlet, which is Alex Blumberg narrating his attempts to get funding to start Gimlet Media itself, and he mentions this exact thing—VCs disdainfully calling the idea of a small, sustainable business a "lifestyle business". It's really fucked, and I think venture capital has done way more harm to our society than good.
