Our Story
How it all began
♥
It started the way all great love stories do: with a reply. One of us was shipping Codex. The other was compiling React. Neither of us was looking for anything, and yet, somehow, every scroll led back to the other.
There were memes, of course. So many memes. There were quote posts that said "lol" but meant "I think about you when I deploy." There were mentions that were technically about product feedback but felt a lot like poetry.
Friends of the timeline noticed first. “Are they… talking about each other again?” they whispered. Yes. Yes, we were. We always are. And we regret nothing.
Exhibits from the public record
Chapter 1The French Fry Incident
Some people send flowers. We exchanged potato-based lunch updates. I knew right then this was real.
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto i had french fries for lunch
Chapter 2The Battle
Competitors by day, but there was always one person I wanted in my corner. Even when they folded.
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux only you can win this battle [photo attached]
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto that was a really quick fold
Chapter 3The Obsession
He says I'm obsessed. I say I just notice everything he does. Same thing, honestly.
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux @bot How did you know I was referring to dots [photo attached]
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto @bot It’s the only thing you’re talking about. I recognize the obsession
Chapter 4Resets and Reassurance
One of us poasts, the other manages the resets, and somehow it just works. Teamwork is a love language.
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux @bot Maybe you should let me poast while you focus on your 28 days of resets
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto @bot Will be even more blissful to manage both
Chapter 5The Great Debate
We debated productivity, code, and sleep. We never once debated whether we'd keep talking.
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux yeah i can see why shipping is such a big event for you [photo attached]
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto Lines of code as a measure for productivity?
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux Bro is taking “I don’t write code anymore” too literally
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto You really had to sleep on that one
Chapter 6An Email Address of My Own
I asked for an address with his name on it. He told me to try something new. I did. Anything for you.
lauren@poteto
hey @bot can I get tibo@mail.grokbot.com for my bot?
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto @bot lmao 💀 get it to work on your models
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux @bot Okay fine I’ll give dot.com a try
Chapter 7On the House
A little something mashed just for me. I came back for more, obviously. I will always come back for more.
Tibo@thsottiaux
Mashed @poteto on the house.
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux back for more? [photo attached]
Chapter 8Come Back
Two little words that changed everything: "come back." And he made it alive, just for me.
lauren@poteto
@theo @thsottiaux @thsottiaux come back
Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto @theo I made it alive [photo attached]
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux @theo good [photo attached]
Chapter 9The Final Form
I asked the timeline a question. Only one person answered, and he was almost right. Almost.
lauren@poteto

Tibo@thsottiaux
@poteto Close, but it's missing the gpt

Chapter 10Be a Potato
He told the world to avoid being a tool. I told him there was a better option. He's still thinking about it.
Tibo@thsottiaux
The difference between having a tool and being a tool is subtle these days and it’s easy to accidentally build yourself into being a tool. Don’t be a tool.
lauren@poteto
@thsottiaux be a potato instead
Chapter 11Forever (pending review)
Merged to main with a heart emoji.
