Backrooms is racist film. It’s technically brilliant, but racist. And it’s a shame during a time where Black studies is being eliminated on college campuses because I fear people are overlooking the obvious tropes and racist callbacks the film ridiculously displays.
Amid the endless stream of daily mints and the constant frenzy for the next big launch, many promising projects go unnoticed, and countless dedicated founders never get the opportunity they deserve to prove what they can build.
@heyshellmates is one of those recent launches that deserves a closer look. The art is excellent, backed by an IP that’s genuinely hard to find flaws in. And then there’s @Ty0xide , in just over a week, he’s already shown that this project is more than just another collection to him. He listens, shares his vision openly, supports the community, and is fully committed to making this work.
In this crazy corner of Web3, none of us knows what the future holds. But if you’re looking beyond the noise and focusing on builders who are actually creating something meaningful, I’d definitely keep an eye on what they’re building.
