I keep getting asked when I'm gonna do a generative project. I've been working on one for a while and I'm buzzing, so here's a little teaser! This is a different mechanic than you've seen before. This isn't random. This is an abomination. Dare to enter the Laboratory?

Some mornings in the NFT space I feel like bailing. I just don’t get it. How can someone rip off BAYC and the Simpsons and as a community we say “yes, here’s a shit ton of money” Then I see projects with original art and ideas just sit there. I’m going outside, cya

It breaks my heart that this community continues to support someone who was publically accused of one of the most heinous crimes, never addressed it, and somehow swept it all under the rug. I’m all for innocent until proven guilty, and believing victims, but for a high profile

In these dark crypto times, pay attention to the creators that are still dropping projects, trying new things, playing, engaging with the community, generally sticking around. Watch out for the ones who have gone quiet and only show up when the going gets good.

So we can all now agree that "influencers" are toxic and we don't need them, right? Be careful who you surround yourself with. If a non-artist is telling artists how to act, what to create, to hustle 24/7, they are perpetuating a toxic culture where they are in control. Fuck 'em
