we say "believe in something" far too freely there is a substantial difference between believing and knowing. just as the difference between hope and faith. once you understand, you will be well on the way to knowing. until then, you'll be stuck in limbo.

whether it's books, magazines, journals, or longform (video) essays each of these, when they're smart enough to force you to really pay attention, have the ability to inspire in extremely useful ways. listen to linda

it's not the technology that matters. it's the stories that comes with it. be compelling, be passionate.

the Grammarly extension now offers authentic authorship tracking which tracks as you type to note when AI generated words could be copy/pasted and that a real human is typing thoughts?

i have a sort of confession this summer i decided to stop writing my weekly newsletter. i stopped feeling like i had anything important to say. it is true i get bored easily and need new things to excite me (Gemini), but i also just wasn't feeling like it was especially helpful for me. now when i do get the inspiration to write it feels more aligned, more thoughtful, more filled with care. along those lines, because I rarely write about technical topics I've been thinking about crypto as a writing angle less and more for curation of ideas, as I'm sure you've seen here. I think about tech in general as a path toward love and being and that should align much more often than it does. maybe this means I'm at a sort of crossroads but I think more than that it just means coming into a type of realization/actualization that keeps me on the outside. all this to say, i feel very dumb and I'm not sure of the path to take next, so we'll see how this turns out.

Here's one of many worst date stories: met this girl on bumble, of course - long drive, maybe 1 hour (I'm an idiot) i go over to her house for food and movie she doesn't have a microwave so we heat up the food she brought from her job in the oven. fine, not a big deal just interesting. she decides to tell me we won't be taking a tour upstairs because the people who had the house before her spraypainted obsceneties on the walls (suuuuure) the bathroom door wouldn't close because the people who built the bathroom decided to put the sink too close to the door her bed was a mattress on top of a wooden pallet... after eating we watched some movie that I do not remember and chatted about general stuff. she mentions that she believes some conspiracy theories so I, curious as I am, ask her which is her favorite one. she says she believes we didn't land on the moon. that's when I decided I really needed to get out of there but I wanted to hear her out first... she really believed it and had some dumb explanation.

maybe saying no more often isn't the answer. maybe the truth is creating openings to say yes to the right things more often, even if they don't last as long.

for a media company, building early and sustained credibility is critical. for a crypto media company, earned credibility outside our tiny bubble of Warpcast, Lens, Spotify, and Twitter is essential regardless of what crypto-native OGs might say. media is media and reliability, consistency, and creativity matter.

big risk, bigger reward. never let risk get in the way of your dreams of doing something great, especially if it will genuinely help people understand.

if your cup isn't full, that doesn't mean to cut off others. it means to bring others in. get it right.
