You ever wonder what it all really means,
You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams

Whatever you do, do it with the confidence of a 4 year old in a Batman suit.

“Success seems to be connected with action. Successful men keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.”

Jordan was often described as a shark, not for the reasons you’d think, but for his boundless energy and relentless determination.

Almost as if the more he moved, the more energy he stored / had available to him.

All my friends are restless, all they do is talk it down
Two or eight lanes, it don't matter, it's just another town
There's a fool on every corner, on every street, in everyone
And I'd rather be your fool nowhere than go somewhere and be no one's

And so I find myself thinking a lot about horses, nowadays.

In 1920, there were 25 million horses in the United States, 25 million horses totally ambivalent to two hundred years of progress in mechanical engines.

And not very long after, 93 percent of those horses had disappeared.

I very much hope we'll get the two decades that horses did.

But looking at how fast Claude is automating my job, I think we're getting a lot less.

How to Think Like Peter Thiel

To understand why Thiel avoids competition and consensus, you have to understand the man who shaped how he thinks about desire.

You start with René Girard

2026 is going to be a banger.

I myself am not a builder, but if I was, I’d be getting down to building right about…now.

@EricksonCC We know how long this has existed.

How much longer can it last?

Pete Carroll is the man.

At his age, his mentality, and his attitude. Tough to beat.

Those of you who are interested in the origins of Rock'n'Roll and Rhythm & Blues, my book Rip It Up: The Specialty Records Story is a must. Few books that deal with music history are written by someone who's lived it and gets it.

Don't blink.

We sat down with @ChainlinkToday to unpack how @chainlink powers the on-chain data behind USTBL and EUTBL - bringing real-time transparency and trust to tokenized money market funds. Full story below 👇

@EricksonCC @AmericanAir Can assure you @AmericanAir did not select those kicks

[Backed @BackedFi]

We spoke to @chainlink during Token2049 last year about how we’re bringing tokenized securities onchain in a big way in 2025.

At Backed, we create tokenized securities built for DeFi.

in some very real sense new york feels like the slop originator for the rest of the country. brooklyn concepts are so close to the divine slop source that they will infect the rest of the country in no time.

you will see japanese listening bars in tulsa, trendy saunas in texas

[Will Manidis @WillManidis]

every "new transplant" city in the US has taken on the same slop aesthetic. austin, nashville, scottsdale -- all of them embody the same kind of beer garden yuppieism. scooters and axe throwing, plastic apartments and group fitness. no history, just remote first jobs.

Finally some value on X.

My biggest takeaway from EthDenver is that tokenization is the most important industry for crypto. Bitcoin, DeFi, NFTs, memecoins, all the culture and all the bullshit - it will only matter if we can find a way to integrate it with the real world. Tokenization is the best bet.
