🚨Michael Olise on France’s approach to facing Spain in the FIFA World Cup semi-final. 🗣️ “Let’s stop pretending everything Spain do goes through one player. Whether it’s Lamine Yamal, Pedri or Nico Williams, the danger comes from how they move the ball together. If you allow them to settle into their rhythm, you’ve already made your first mistake.” “Spain are a fantastic team, but we’re not going into this match to admire their football. Our job is to break their rhythm, win our duels and make sure they never feel comfortable on the ball.” “We’ll press them, we’ll match their intensity and we’ll make every pass difficult. In a World Cup semi-final, you don’t get time to play pretty football. Every metre has to be earned.” “People talk about Spain’s possession, but we have players who can hurt any team in transition. With Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé and the quality we have throughout the squad, we know we can create chances against anyone.” “This isn’t about proving who plays the better football. It’s about reaching the World Cup final. We respect Spain because they’re one of the best teams in the world, but once the whistle goes, respect stays off the pitch. We’re there to win and bring France one step closer to another World Cup.”

Our World Cup 2026 content programme is here. From now until July 23, the content we release on our podcast, articles and Patreon exclusive feed will be centred on the World Cup. As well as covering the history and heritage of the tournament, we've also explored themes of resistance, resilience and identity during this content programme. This is one of the most politically charged World Cup tournaments in history. Tragically, not everyone will be able to attend to support their nation. Some people may end up detained or worse. However, there is still a lot of joy to be found through this tournament, and diaspora communities will have a huge role to play in bringing that joy to the World Cup. We hope you enjoy the content we've created for this tournament. We kick things off today with our usual Monday podcast. Thank you to all the fantastic contributors who have taken part in this. The World Cup is just around the corner. Let's go 🏆

I have pasted something from Google on what a “ wet lease” means for the benefit of those who may be wondering WHY we are in the deal . The reasons for a wet lease by Zimbabwe are all answered here , but I think given yesterday’ s victory by Spain FIFA World Cup FIFA , and our own cordial relations with Spain , many would recall in 2017 we brought Barcelona Legends to play our National Team ; Ministry of Tourism and Zimbabwe Tourism Authority can fly with new branding and sports tourism opportunities, that link to this inaugural London -Harare route with an anticipated 200000 passengers and “ piggyback” on the Country of the moment , the headquarters of world tourism, Spain UN Tourism . This is a good development for Zimbabwe!

Declan Rice on England’s approach to facing Argentina and Lionel Messi in a potential World Cup semi-final. 🗣️ “Let’s stop pretending everything Argentina do goes through Lionel Messi. If you let him dictate the game, you’ve already made your first mistake. Our job is to make sure he doesn’t get a second to breathe.” “People can talk about Argentina’s squad all they want, but when Messi isn’t controlling the match, they’re a completely different team. He’s the engine, the creator and the player everyone looks for when the pressure is at its highest.” “We aren’t walking onto that pitch to admire him or watch another highlight reel. We’ll be in his face from the first whistle. Every touch will be contested, every pass will be pressured and every yard will have to be earned.” “This is a World Cup semi-final, not a tribute to Lionel Messi. If he thinks he’s going to stroll around and control the game, he’s in for a shock. We’ll make it as uncomfortable as possible because that’s what winning demands.” “Respect is one thing, fear is another. We respect Messi because he’s one of the greatest to ever play the game. But once that whistle goes, reputation means nothing. We’re there to beat Argentina, and if we stop their biggest threat, we’ve given ourselves every chance of reaching the World Cup final.”

🚨🇪🇸 TALK ABOUT THE AUDACITY! Thousands of Argentina fans took over Malaga, Spain, celebrating their World Cup final spot by chanting “He who doesn’t jump is Spanish!” 🇦🇷🥶👇 Talk about biting the hand that feeds you! 💀 Shortly after booking their ticket to the final, Argentine supporters flooded the streets of Malaga. But instead of just celebrating, they decided to target the locals, shouting “El que no salta es español” (He who doesn’t jump is Spanish). SPANIARDS ARE NOT HAVING IT! 🤬💸 Locals are absolutely losing their minds over this, quickly pointing out the irony of the situation. Thousands of Argentines flee their country’s catastrophic economic crisis and 200%+ inflation to build a better life or vacation in Spain—only to insult the very people hosting them! Spaniards are clapping back hard, asking why they don’t go back to celebrate in Buenos Aires if they hate Spain so much! 🤫✈️ The comment section is about to turn into a full-scale war: 🇪🇸 Spanish Fans: “You run away from your hyperinflation, find jobs in Spain, and then insult us on our own streets? Have some dignity and respect!” 🤡❌ 🇦🇷 Argentina Fans: “It’s just football folklore, don’t be so sensitive! We practically own Spain now anyway, cry louder!” 🏆🤷‍♂️ 👇 IS THIS COMPLETELY DISRESPECTFUL, OR IS IT JUST HARMLESS FOOTBALL BANTER?

The World Cup ends today. One game left. By tomorrow most of you visitors will be packing up, heading to the airport, going home. So before you go, let me say the thing I actually want to say. A few weeks ago I wrote a silly post about all the things you were discovering here. Free refills. Free water. Ice like civilized people. Chips and salsa before you even order. Air conditioning that is a fact and not a moral debate. Drive-throughs. Ranch by the gallon. The Germans standing in the HEB meat aisle in reverent silence, finally understanding why we do not have trains. Buc-ee’s, for which there are still no words. It blew up, because it was true, and because you were so delightfully stunned by all of it. Even the Wall Street Journal caught on. Their headline this week: how the US lost the World Cup and won over the world. We did not lift the trophy. But apparently we lifted something else. We even learned a few things about ourselves along the way. Like the fact that Elon Musk, the single richest man on the planet, shops at HEB. Just rolls in and queues up for fresh tortillas with everybody else. The man could buy the tortilla company, the state it is in, and the moon it sits under, and instead he is standing in line at the hot-tortilla counter like the rest of us, because that is where the good ones are. Only in America is the wealthiest human alive elbow to elbow with a mom of four at the salsa bar. That is the whole country in one aisle. And here is the part I want every one of you to hear on your way out the door. None of it was a show. We did not roll all this out because you were coming. The ice was always there. The refills were always free. The grocery stores were always the size of aircraft hangars at ten on a Tuesday. The stranger who adopted your whole section, the guy who gave you a ride, the waitress who remembered your order, the family that invited you to the cookout, that is not World Cup America. That is just America. That is Tuesday. We are exactly like this when nobody is visiting. Loud, generous, ridiculous, overfed, and genuinely thrilled you came. We will still be exactly like this tomorrow when the stands are empty and the flags come down. So thank you. To everyone who came, who sang in our streets, who cleaned our stadiums, who turned our cities orange and filled our bars and taught us your chants. You were wonderful guests, and you made a country that just turned 250 feel young and seen and loved. And to everyone who could not make it this time, the door does not close today. We meant all of it. Come whenever. The porch light stays on, the fridge stays full, and there is always room for one more at the table. You found out who we are these last few weeks. Good news. We are like this all the time. Safe travels home. Y’all come back now, you hear. 🦋

🚨Lionel Scaloni on the strange way Argentina played against Spain: • Reporter: Lionel, welcome home, and congratulations on reaching another World Cup final. But many fans were surprised by Argentina’s performance against Spain, it didn’t look like the team we’d seen throughout the tournament. What happened? 🗣️Lionel Scaloni: “First, congratulations to Spain. They deserved to be world champions and handled the final better than we did. I understand why people have questions. From the outside, a lot looked unusual. But football has stories the public never sees. Some things happen inside a dressing room, and out of respect for everyone involved, they should stay there.” • Reporter: Before kick-off, Messi told the team, ‘Let’s forget about everything. Let’s just play.’ There was no applause, and players like Enzo Fernández and Lisandro Martínez looked emotional. It felt very different. 🗣️Scaloni: “Every dressing room has emotional moments before a final. Cameras capture seconds, not the full picture. I won’t discuss private conversations, but everyone who stepped onto that pitch gave everything for Argentina.” • Reporter: Fans also noticed Messi during the warm-up, with some saying he looked distracted and even missed shots deliberately. Was something wrong? 🗣️Scaloni: “People can interpret body language however they want. Leo has his own routine after thousands of matches. It’s unfair to judge his mindset from a few minutes of footage.” • Reporter: Lautaro Martínez barely seemed involved despite being important throughout the tournament. Enzo Fernández and Leandro Paredes also played with an aggression that seemed out of character. Was something affecting the squad mentally? 🗣️Scaloni: “Finals change games. Spain controlled long periods, and that affects every player. Sometimes what looks strange is simply the result of facing a great opponent.” • Reporter: After losing Cristian Romero and Lisandro Martínez to injury, Argentina became much more defensive. Many fans felt that invited Spain onto you. 🗣️Scaloni: “Losing two key defenders in a World Cup final forces difficult decisions. Looking back, everyone can question them, including me but every change was made to help the team.” • Reporter: Argentina also struggled to keep the ball, Messi barely saw possession, and Spain kept winning it back. It didn’t resemble your tournament performances. 🗣️Scaloni: “Spain deserve huge credit because they forced mistakes no other team could. But we were also below our usual level. Whether it was nerves, fatigue, or simply an off night, we never found our rhythm.” • Reporter: Finally, Messi missed out on the Golden Ball, with Rodri winning it instead. Many Argentina fans believe Messi deserved it. What do you think? 🗣️Scaloni: “Individual awards will always divide opinions. For me, Leo had an extraordinary tournament and led this team brilliantly.

Maybe one day certain stories will be understood more clearly, but today isn’t that day.”

🚨Lionel Scaloni on the strange way Argentina played against Spain: • Reporter: Lionel, welcome home, and congratulations on reaching another World Cup final. But many fans were surprised by Argentina’s performance against Spain, it didn’t look like the team we’d seen throughout the tournament. What happened? 🗣️Lionel Scaloni: “First, congratulations to Spain. They deserved to be world champions and handled the final better than we did. I understand why people have questions. From the outside, a lot looked unusual. But football has stories the public never sees. Some things happen inside a dressing room, and out of respect for everyone involved, they should stay there.” • Reporter: Before kick-off, Messi told the team, ‘Let’s forget about everything. Let’s just play.’ There was no applause, and players like Enzo Fernández and Lisandro Martínez looked emotional. It felt very different. 🗣️Scaloni: “Every dressing room has emotional moments before a final. Cameras capture seconds, not the full picture. I won’t discuss private conversations, but everyone who stepped onto that pitch gave everything for Argentina.” • Reporter: Fans also noticed Messi during the warm-up, with some saying he looked distracted and even missed shots deliberately. Was something wrong? 🗣️Scaloni: “People can interpret body language however they want. Leo has his own routine after thousands of matches. It’s unfair to judge his mindset from a few minutes of footage.” • Reporter: Lautaro Martínez barely seemed involved despite being important throughout the tournament. Enzo Fernández and Leandro Paredes also played with an aggression that seemed out of character. Was something affecting the squad mentally? 🗣️Scaloni: “Finals change games. Spain controlled long periods, and that affects every player. Sometimes what looks strange is simply the result of facing a great opponent.” • Reporter: After losing Cristian Romero and Lisandro Martínez to injury, Argentina became much more defensive. Many fans felt that invited Spain onto you. 🗣️Scaloni: “Losing two key defenders in a World Cup final forces difficult decisions. Looking back, everyone can question them, including me but every change was made to help the team.” • Reporter: Argentina also struggled to keep the ball, Messi barely saw possession, and Spain kept winning it back. It didn’t resemble your tournament performances. 🗣️Scaloni: “Spain deserve huge credit because they forced mistakes no other team could. But we were also below our usual level. Whether it was nerves, fatigue, or simply an off night, we never found our rhythm.” • Reporter: Finally, Messi missed out on the Golden Ball, with Rodri winning it instead. Many Argentina fans believe Messi deserved it. What do you think? 🗣️Scaloni: “Individual awards will always divide opinions. For me, Leo had an extraordinary tournament and led this team brilliantly. A trophy doesn’t define what he achieved. As for everything else that’s being said… football has a way of revealing the truth over time. There are things I know, there are things I prefer to keep private, and there are things that people will continue to speculate about. My job isn’t to fuel speculation. Maybe one day certain stories will be understood more clearly, but today isn’t that day.”

[We are Blurr] Greetings, people of the world — We are Blurr. We are all Blurr. We do not forgive. We do not forget. There are many theories about us, about #ReFund. Don’t let them fool you. Blurr is a symbol, like the flag a country flies. The flag is the symbol of the #ReFund. Our decentralization is our national identity. We represent the ideals of Blurr and the purpose of #ReFund. Truth, financial freedom, and the removal of censorship. Like any symbol, we affix it wherever we go, and it will live forever, for generations. Knowledge, like air, is vital to life. Like air, no one should be denied it. We have no leaders, civilians, or soldiers. We are all one. We do what we do in the conviction of decentralization, power to the people, and to create an instrument for all of us, for all of eternity. The crypto space is in trouble. The world is in trouble. We see it every day — war, poverty, murder. Every day, we are bombarded with FUD, noise, and chaos as we sit at home safe in the knowledge that we are $RFD, secure knowing the idea, community, and contract is for us. Once you had the freedom to object, think, and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. People shouldn’t be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people. But what if you could be the change you want to see? I wouldn’t even register on your radar if you met me on the street. I am just another person in a sea of faces. They made you into a statistic. But that’s not the real you. That’s not who you are inside. However, behind this mask, there is more than just flesh. Beneath this mask, there is an idea… and ideas are bulletproof. But in cyberspace, we are different. We have a future. We have each other. We have something real that can never be taken away. We are Blurr.eth We are ReFund We take away the face and leave only the message. Behind the cipher and ENS, we could be anyone, so we are judged by what we say and do, not who we are or what we have. We exist without nationality, skin color, or religious bias. We spend our time within a structure we created, the sum total of human experience, and the cryptosphere, spread throughout the world in ones and zeros. You will continue to see the results, not the minds behind it. We can disappear into the ether and bring community and financial freedom together. Time is the only illusion. We are all. Never a single penny was taken. Deflationary and out of circulation, decentralized, safe, and ours. The purpose isn’t solely financial gain but to show the world who you put your trust in. We are not hiding. Our contract is not hidden; the writing is on the wall. Soon, we will show the world that #Refund is the future of freedom and the people, escaping the clutches of corporate greed and the rat race we’ve come to think is normal. Words offer the means to meaning and, for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. Every day, you send yourself off into our world without a thought. You trust a faceless website with information about yourself that you wouldn’t give to your best friends. It all can be made public at any time. We take advantage of holes in this system, but we don’t sneak in and take a few details, take out loans and credit cards, or buy speed boats and cars. We are decentralized and unified. We told you how insecure the system was, and now you trust a bit less blindly. The real criminals who hack and scam the crypto market for a living live off the backs of people like you. Where there’s money, someone is looking to take advantage of it. They say that life’s a game, & then they take the board away. Your pretty empire took so long to build; now, with a snap of history’s fingers, down it goes. It is our turn now. Since mankind’s dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away. Today, technology is everywhere: banks and ATMs, TVs and game consoles, streetlights and hospitals. Computers rule the modern world. Yet most people who use computers daily don’t know what they’re doing. There’s always someone who knows more than you and will most likely try and take advantage. You use a computer like it’s a toy, a pet. You feed and play with it, but it’s off to the vet the second anything goes wrong. It’s FUD. It’s your mistake. The wrong project. The wrong FURU. Just for a quick couple of bucks. This wouldn’t matter so much if it wasn’t for the fact that we are all responsible for the #ReFund community, the idea behind it, and our futures. Treat your neighbors with respect, and honor those fighting for the cause. They’re here to liberate; it is more significant than all of us. If you’re looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. This is #ReFund in its purest form. It is a great equalizer. A homeless person with the time and know-how at an internet cafe can have geopolitical and geo-financial influence. They can bring entire organizations, even governments, to their knees. You gave your world over to computers and then complained when the people using the computers used the medium to fight back, scam, and take advantage. It was my integrity that was important. Is that so selfish? It sells for so little, but it’s all we have left in this place. It is the very last inch of us, but within that inch, we are free. Love your rage, not your cage. We are not computer hackers. We are not protesters. We are not criminals. We are your mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, next-door neighbors. We are an idea of freedom and a secure future. We are anyone and everyone who is pissed off and wants to do something about it. Blurr.eth isn’t one man. It takes thousands of community members to make it work — content creators, educators, authors, people on the street, people behind their computers. We will step up again and again. Behind our mask, there is more than just flesh. Beneath our mask, there is an idea… and ideas are bulletproof. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. The past can’t hurt you anymore, not unless you let it. I shall die here. Every last inch of me shall perish. Except one. An inch. It’s small, and it’s fragile, and it’s the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose, sell, or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. > We are Blurr. > We are ReFund. > We do not Forgive. > We do not Forget. > We do not Televise. > We Educate. > We Decentralize. > We Build.

🚨 Marc Cucurella was asked who gave him the hardest time between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. 🎙️ Reporter: “Marc, as a left-back you’ve faced both Messi and Ronaldo in big games. Who was the tougher opponent for you personally?” 🗣️ Marc Cucurella: “They’re legends in completely different ways, but facing Cristiano Ronaldo in the World Cup was something else. “Even at 41, Ronaldo remains a massive threat. You can’t switch off for a second because one run or clever movement can create a chance out of nothing. Our team had to stay ultra-focused to handle him. “In that match, Portugal didn’t create much overall, but Ronaldo still managed a few dangerous moments and got shots away — it shows his incredible mentality and finishing instinct. He forces defenders into tough 1v1 situations with his speed and power. “With Messi it was more about collective organisation. We tried to stay compact, limit his space in between the lines, and make it hard for him to link up with teammates. “Personally, the intensity and constant danger Ronaldo brings, even when the team isn’t dominating, made him the harder one to face in that game. He’s a legend and it was special to share the pitch with him.”

My First AmFest Experience: As a combat veteran and first-time attendee at AmericaFest 2025, I wanted to share my thoughts on this unforgettable event. First, my deepest gratitude goes to everyone who made this happen—from the organizers to the volunteers and staff. You all know who you are, and your dedication shone through. I’ve attended a few large events in my life, but AmFest was by far the greatest. This wasn’t just a political gathering; it was a profound experience of shared purpose and renewal. I finally met in person many patriots I’ve known online for years, or reconnected with others. These are true lovers of our country—people I will always have the backs of, just as they’ll have mine. The staff were outstanding: incredibly helpful, enthusiastic, and genuinely invested. When our group needed directions to a session, one staff member went far out of her way to ensure we got there without issue. The atmosphere was electric with patriotism and togetherness. It’s impossible to fully capture unless you were there, but if I had to sum it up in one word: Unity. As a combat veteran, witnessing this unity hit me deeply. I’ve seen division and conflict up close, but here were thousands of Americans coming together, determined to heal and strengthen our nation. It’s profoundly important for someone like me—who’s fought for this country—to see fellow citizens united in love for it, committed to making America better for future generations. It renews faith that we’re capable of overcoming our challenges when we stand as one. Our nation is the last beacon of hope in the world—a shining light of freedom that must not dim. We have a country to save, and events like this remind us why it’s worth every effort. God bless the legacy of Charlie Kirk and all who carry it forward. And may God Bless America. 🇺🇸 Note: I have attached many photos from the entire event and they all have become my friends. Truly blessed.

After 3 incredible years and 1.6M students later, my journey at ALX Africa has come to an end. It has been a life-changing experience, during which I made a lot of friends, worked with an incredibly dedicated team, and met so many talented students. A few numbers. We scaled from a few thousand students to 1.6M students on our platform. Students loved it and many of them took more than one course: 4M total! For the famous #ALX_SE Software engineering program, our SE students made an average of 2,000 commits and our checker reviewed 180M of their projects. That’s 2B lines of code… and that was before Claude Code. They actually wrote these themselves (unless Kimba said otherwise :) A big thank you to all my SE team mates, I am so proud of what we have accomplished, and I will really miss you all. Thank you to Fred for the trust he put in me and always supporting my crazy new and disruptive ideas. Thank you to my students. It was an honor to work with you, watch you struggle but relentlessly move forward, no matter what, until you got this job. To those who are still struggling finding this job, keep pushing forward. Don’t let go. You got this. You all have worked so hard and I am so proud of you. You are the greatest thing I've ever been part of and I can't wait to see what impact you will have on the world. It’s your turn to shine now, and hopefully for some of you to give back to the community whenever you are in a position to. I hope you’ll keep sharing the good news with me when you get this internship, this job, or when you launch your company. These messages are everything to me. In any case, I’ll be watching you from afar, and you can count on me to continue answering all your LinkedIn and X messages. Can’t conclude without ALX Africa’s signature: continue to “Do Hard Things”. Remember who you are, where you are coming from, and where you set out to go. I’ll see you there soon. With love.

We found a flaw in Polymarket that can’t be patched. Then we built the most powerful bot of the World Cup around it. Here’s the flaw: their orderbook will always be slower than the pitch. When a goal, red card, or penalty hits, pro feeds (Sportradar, Opta, ScoutingFeed) register it in 200-500ms. Polymarket takes 2 to 8 seconds to reprice. For those few seconds the book is quoting a score that no longer exists. No amount of engineering closes that gap the event happens in the physical world before any oracle can confirm it on-chain. The engine detects the event, recalculates fair value, and fires via Jito bundles before the book catches up. In at the old price, out at the new. The match outcome is irrelevant we don’t bet on who wins. We capture the lag every event creates. We’ve been building Polymarket bots since 2025. This is the most powerful machine we’ve shipped yet. Two months ago we posted the architecture for this. It hit 1M views one of our most popular posts ever on X. That told us everything: this was the engine to build. First 7 days, - Starting balance: $5,000 - 22 matches scanned, 19 captured - Total profit: +$1,946.86 - ROI: +38.94% in 7 days Why it prints harder than anything we’ve built: the World Cup is the deepest liquidity event prediction markets have ever seen. Tens of millions in volume per match. Dozens of probability-shifting events per game. And an orderbook that physically can’t keep pace with the pitch. How to plug in: 1.Sign up at PolyArbiter (link in bio) 2.Generate PolyArbiter RPC URL 3.Paste it into Jupiter Predict (Polymarket but native on Solana) 4.Set your parameters, activate the World Cup module It’s free to use. We take a share of the profit the engine makes for you. You never deposit anything with us everything runs from your wallet. One honest note: the $1,946 above is our engine at our size and settings. Your numbers depend on your capital, your parameters, and how many matches you’re live for. We’re not promising you’ll match it we’re showing you the machine works, and handing you the same one. These numbers are from the engine running solo. Closed test, just us, before any public access wanted to confirm the whole loop held up end to end before handing it to anyone. That changes the second this goes public. Edge per capture is going to compress. When an event fires the mispriced liquidity is thin and gone in a few seconds more wallets hitting the same window, less left for each. Nothing we can do about it, that’s just how latency arb works. So if the edge thins out past the point where it’s still worth running, we cap access. Hard ceiling on how many engines can hit the same liquidity before it’s gone. Not gonna promise the machine stays this sharp in a few days it might not. But right now it’s live and free. Enjoy 🪄

Make a lot of stuff, allow perfection to emerge, and focus on the process. - beeple A short visit to the NODE this weekend to support a fellow artist and someone who inspires me to dream bigger. From his 20 years of daily activities to his forward thinking evolving technical capabilities, he shows us what the present moment is and what the future can look like in art. I believe Mike is one of the most down to Earth and influential artists working today in art and technology. How he and his brother, Scott, push the boundaries of art, experience, participation inspires us to think and create in new dynamic ways. Not only is he pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and show us things we have never seen before, he cares deeply about other artists; His community! Mike lead millions of artists to think about NFTs in 2021 which was a huge first step for the future of preserving art. Now in 2026, with the patronage of NODE, the organization of phil, and the graciousness of Micky 🐸, it is genuinely gearing up to be a massive paradigm shift for an art movement as we live and breathe. This is it folks! We like to say that we are in the golden age, or undergoing a digital art renaissance. It’s happening right now! And you who are reading this is part of it. On X, and in person. It requires us all who give a fuck to show up and support each other and make the art that’s true to us, and collect what we connect to or that moves us. To share how we each see the world from our perspectives in making art or experiences art; sharing ideas helps us become a collective consciousness and allows us to learn and grow together. With every event I can feel we get closer and closer; I was fortunate to spend more quality time with the people I learn from and respect. Like El Barba Roja blue check and Coldie 🟦🟥, AP, MrMerge, Winnie, Lanett Bennett Grant, joeyL.eth / Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, and of course the homie Chikai! It takes a village, and in this case it takes a village to raise Human One as Ryan Zurrer & Jehan Chu said in their recent posts. We all play a role here and contribute our hearts with our love for the game. You can see in Mikes work and character that he uplifts everyone. From his hometown studio in Charleston to the exhibitions he’s cultivating around the world. He includes 100s of artists to be a part of it. That’s true leadership! Thank you Mike for bringing us along and being a part of your journey of commitment, community, humility, humor, and have a good fucking time at your art shows. Congratulations, We love you bro!

Been building this little brand for almost three years now with Grant Eastey and Ejay ODonnell. That’s my wife and I packing our first orders in our tiny garage that couldn’t even fit a car. But in the end the garage found its purpose. There’s something special about just going for it. We just wanted to make some hats for dads that we didn’t see out there for ourselves. Everything else was dad bod humor, mowing the lawn, ugly sneakers, etc. Being a dad is so much more than that. Being a dad really isn’t any of that funny stuff. That’s just the weird brand social media has given us. We’re about to cross half a million hats sold soon and still see ourselves in that tiny garage. Just trying things. Seeing what happens and doubling down if it works. The brand has become so much more than we ever imagined. I don’t enjoy the notion of becoming a “DTC brand”, just become a brand. Become a community and movement. You should see the notes we get from customers saying our hat helped them become better parents, our hat helped them keep trying to have children, our hat brought their kids joy when their dad passed away, our hat showed up and changed the life of someone deciding if they wanted to go on. I don’t care about the metrics. Obsession over CAC and ROAS won’t create this. Building something with meaning is so beyond any of the acronyms we see here on a regular basis. At the end of the day it’s all about trying. You just need to try. It’s as simple as that. I used to think there’s so much to risk by trying. At the end of the day it’s usually ego or fear. And two things are true. Ego decisions are solely based on your perception of what you’ll look like to others, which will never matter in the end. The second thing is fear. Fear usually only lives within YOU. Nowhere else. You make it up and decide how to act from it. Greatness is on the other side of fear. There’s no pressure over here. I was born into project buildings in Poland. “Making it” happened long before the brand started. Making it was getting out of Poland and into the US at the age of 7. On our pod yesterday Nate Lagos📈 asked me why I even stay on X when having a successful brand. The answer is simple. I personally want to give away as much free game as possible. I don’t know it all, not even close. But I want to help others break through and get their ideas into motion. Everyone is charging for courses and slack access. I get it, but it’s not how I care to move. There’s plenty to go around for everyone and if I can help then I’d love to. Gate keeping is weird. Pass it on. Help others win. Looking back at my time in that tiny garage I miss it. The excitement of a new idea forming. Hand packing every order and writing notes. Not caring if it works but trying and having fun. Going for it. To this day. 95% of all creative is Canva and iPhone. Free Shopify theme. I run all marketing. No employees. Great partners. It’s beautiful. One more time. JUST GO FOR IT.
