Bad Batch ending was magnificent. Probably my favorite Star Wars TV show ending (Rebels and Clone Wars endings come close). 😭🙏

Damn. Annoyed. Coinbase finally went and closed my business account because I don't use it that often. As a small business, what are you supposed to do? Support sucks. :(

Book tickets to see Phantom Menace 25 year anniversary re-release in cinemas this week. Seeing it as a kid in '99 was one of the peak most magical cinematic experiences of my life growing up. Adore episode 1 and can't wait to see it again. 😍

For my latest newsletter, I riffed off a tweet from @vitalik.eth, exploring different domains to reason about uncoordination (protecting against collusion, bribery, corruption, etc): Frameworks for Uncoordination: https://sceneswithsimon.com/p/frameworks-for-uncoordination Enjoy!

Such dreamy jazz by Berlioz. Feels like friends, cities, and warm summer nights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04o00DJ3Y5w

Been speaking about memecoins since 2014. This was from 2017. 😅

Is it $DEGEN that pioneered the concept of giving a daily allowance for people to dish out? Are there earlier coins/tokens that did something like this?

With the new Cindy Lee only being available in wavs, I'm reconsidering how to listen to music again that isn't just streaming. Specifically on my phone. Android. Google Music used to allow you to add your own music to it. Spotify doesn't. Best app that makes a cloud experience for streaming your own bought mp3s/wavs?

Best new album release I've seen in a while. Only on YouTube (whole album stream) or WAVs from a GeoCities page: https://www.geocities.ws/ccqsk/ No streaming. Pay by donation through PayPal. Best part? Utterly gorgeous double album. So damn listenable.

I rarely replay or pick up old games again (there's just too many new and great games to play), but seriously tempted to continue Tears of the Kingdom after I put in 100 hours last year and finish more side quests. 👀

Anyone find that warpcast on the web sometimes has what feels like a memory leak? I'd come back to the tab and it just hanged. Requires closing it before re-opening. On Brave + Mac.

ngl, I love junk interior AI visuals like this that's all over Facebook. Part fever dream, but also sometimes actually fun + inspiring. At least it's not the sanitised feel-nothing bland interior design of many modern homes. 😅

Damn. Fallout TV show was A+. Just kept getting better and better with each episode. So good.

Writing a contemporary novel has been *way* harder to me than sci-fi because the worldbuilding of sci-fi/fantasy can be a crutch and carry the story. Definitely good lessons that will carry into future sci-fi/fantasy for sure.

Look, I know things aren't the best they can be, but this vision from Balaji on a gray tribe takeover of San Francisco is terrifying. Big horseshoe theory energy here, unaware of how fascist it sounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqJoXaNFFjY

If there were search trends that indicated that people are opting for touch grass, turning off the web and going outside again? What would be good ones? Examples: concert, run club, book club, local events, delete social media, etc.
