Make your own path; don’t follow the crowd.

Sometimes you need to leave everything behind and rediscover the parts of yourself that got lost along the way.

The heart remembers what the mind forgets.

The weight of an unspoken word can linger far longer than any spoken sentence ever could.

You never know how much strength you have until everything you believed in begins to slip away.

There are moments when the world stands still, and all you can do is breathe and listen.

Some days, it feels like we’re drowning in our thoughts, unable to breathe or find calm.

Coop Records

Super proud to welcome ODESZA to @cooprecs 

This act is such a defining part of my music journey. I've seen them 25+ times over the course of the last decade and their music and live shows have redefined the way we think about electronic music and it's potential to reach a mass audience.

We're starting with two of their most iconic songs from In Return - "Say My Name" and "Sun Models" which speak perfectly to the nostalgic energy we're looking to curate.

Onchain music has a longggg way to go but moments like these make me feel like we're on the right path and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Earn 2x COOP points for every edition you collect!

Base

I don't work on Base any longer but some of the anti-Base FUD still pisses me off.

@Tiza4ThePeople This narrative just isn’t true — here are the facts:

Base is and will continue growing Ethereum. We’re investing all of our earnings and resources into doing this and we have gone from zero to millions of new people onchain in 1.5 years.

Base and Coinbase have and continue to… https://t.co/VR3BAAUhIc

Best lore I’ve found on Unichain:
- $ TINY “Tinyass Unicorns”
- Provenance: 1st NFT on Unichain (deployed during leak)
- Is a DN404 so is tradable as an ERC20
- The art is cute.

Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

/dialectic w/ Steph Ango (@kepano) is out now.

Steph is a designer, artist, entrepreneur, toolmaker, and CEO of 
/obsidian, the tool I use to write, think, and store my ideas.

This is a must-listen for any designer or creative person. We discuss constraints, style, principles, reduction, digital durability, investing time, choosing what to work on, compounding, patience, and communicating your ideas.

Steph has worked across mediums: hardware, software, industrial design, packaging, open-source, content, instruments, and more. He's a toolmaker first and foremost, and we talk about how creative constraints enable us to stoke the flame inside us.

Steph is a prolific writer whose clarity and concision inspire me, and we discuss many of his most empowering ideas.

I believe these ideas will challenge you in unexpected ways and push you to be more creative, agentic, and optimistic.

Steph Ango (@kepano)'s 'Stadium of selves':

"Let's say you live 80 years, and each new day is one person, it would fill up a stadium. 60K days in that stadium represent 60K people. And so, your current self—today's self— is on stage.

You're in the middle of the stadium and all of your past and future selves are sitting in the audience.

Anything I've ever really tried to create was for a version of myself."
