Choosing a week of posts in ten minutes

Every automated setup dies at the same place.

Not the making. The choosing.

  1. Batch it, always

    Mutator has no approval queue. A run makes things and posts none of them.

    So the job is picking: open the library, choose, give each one a slot.

    Reviewing one clip costs a whole context switch. Seven costs the same one.

    TipSame time every day beats whenever you remember.

  2. Decide good enough before you look

    Write down what would make you reject something.

    Do it once, when you are calm, not per clip at 8am.

  3. Look at three things

    Is the claim true. Is the product right. Would you post it yourself.

    That is the list. Everything else is taste and it can wait.

  4. Skip fast, do not rewrite

    Rewriting while you pick is how ten minutes becomes an afternoon.

    Leave it where it is and let the next one be better.

    TipIf you are editing more than one in five, the format is wrong, not the clip.

  5. One person decides

    Two reviewers is not twice the safety. It is half the accountability.

    Every post carries the name of whoever chose it. Keep that meaningful.

  6. Protect the ten minutes

    Choosing is the only part of this you cannot hand over.

    It is also the cheapest part, if you keep it small and daily.

The check is not overhead. It is the reason the rest can run without you.

Ten minutes buys the other seven days.
