Hey, what's up everyone?
It's Tricky Buddha from DeFi Space Donkeys.
Hope you guys are all doing good.
Happy Wednesday.
Hope you're all just moving right along.
Keep on building and staying positive.
We got lots of cool stuff coming up this week.
We are live with the new set of dragons.
We got those 3D dragons live.
The mint link is in my bio.
It's also in the Discord.
I posted up top so you can kind of give it a little look.
Check out what we've got going on.
Also, anyone who mints one of those dragons for 50matic
gets whitelisted for the new AI art
that we're going to be dropping off pretty soon.
You'll get a whitelist, it'll get you half the price.
So it'll be like $5 for a new AI art piece.
And I got a little sample up there in the Jumbotron.
So you can see just a little corner of it, some of the magic there.
We got a physical dragon sculpture we scanned in with AI.
So it's a very unique piece.
Normally the AI dragons look kind of a certain type of way,
but these are very unique because they're based off of the original image.
So pretty cool.
But yeah, definitely check that out.
Amanda from Wild World of Dragons is always making cool stuff.
She's a great person and always happy to support her.
So definitely give that a retweet.
Check out her account.
Make sure you're following.
A big shout out to everybody in the room.
I appreciate you showing up.
All the pluses.
Gunna, Bella, the family's here.
I love it.
I love it.
Mr. Moen, welcome.
And I see we got annoyed pandas in the house as well.
Hope you're not too annoyed today.
Hope you're feeling good.
But yeah, you guys are all welcome to just hang out and chat.
If you want to come up here and share some art, share some NFTs,
you're more than welcome.
That's what this place is for, just to share some more cool stuff.
I love crypto and NFTs, so I want to see it.
I want to see the art.
I want to talk about it.
Yeah, whatever you've got building, I definitely want to see it.
So feel free to just grab a mic, come up.
Or if you don't want to talk, that's cool too.
Feel free to share it down in the comments.
But yeah, give the room a retweet.
Maybe tag some friends.
And yeah, let's just keep going.
Hope you're having a great day.
Welcome, welcome.
Let's see, we're just dropping some dill music.
I figure I've got to start the spaces with some dill music since we got rights to it.
We've got to start the spaces with Web3 music more often and just keep on pumping that out.
Since we got rights to it too, we're not going to get shadow banned for playing Web3 music, right?
Yeah.
Hey, what's up, Sheena?
Welcome to the stage.
How are you doing today?
Hey, what's up?
Pretty good.
How are you guys doing?
Doing good.
Doing good.
It's a busy day, but relatively chill.
Things are kind of going slow, but there's lots of good spaces going right now too.
So we might just raid another space depending on, you know, what we want to do.
We can always go share our art in other places.
But yeah, what are you up to?
I don't know.
I accidentally slept all day.
Yeah.
It happens.
Happens to the best of us.
I think I went to sleep at like 2 a.m. and then slept until like 1.
So, yeah.
I didn't really sleep there.
I just lie there until the sun comes up and then I sleep.
I don't know why.
I'm completely nocturnal.
It is what it is.
Hey, welcome, Moen.
Welcome to the stage.
How's it going?
Hey, what's up?
What's up?
How are you?
Hey, doing good.
Doing good.
What's new today?
What's good today?
We got any new art?
Any new NFTs?
What are we collecting?
What are we creating?
Feel free to share.
Yeah, buddy.
Good day, actually.
Yeah.
The Wednesday half of the week.
I feel the pain of this week, you know.
I spend the hard week, but I love it.
Yeah, days don't mean anything.
We've been so busy this last couple of weeks that it's just constant stuff popping off.
We got so many cool collaborations and just so many things being built right now.
And there's a lot more people jumping into this industry.
I've noticed like the attention is coming back.
We've got a lot more projects minting, a lot more people coming in and asking questions.
Yeah, things are things are about to turn.
I think people are starting to want to pay attention a little bit because they know that
having is coming up in the next six months to a year.
And everyone's trying to get their bags right, you know, before the next boom.
Yeah, now's the time to do some research and get those holdings right before it really takes off.
We saw a little pump last week.
I'm expecting a little dip and then a nice pump.
We always see a pump around this time of year.
And then we see some sell-offs coming for the holidays, which makes sense, right?
People trying to pay for their holidays.
So that ends up happening.
So, yeah, we're going to see a lot of price movement in the next six months.
But then we're, you know, it's scary, too, because I feel like it's still good to like hold long term, right?
Like we're really close to the next halving and the next run up.
So it's I don't want to like I don't want to be holding cash right now or too much cash right now.
Right. I want to I want to be invested for sure.
But it's going to be volatile this next month or two.
Yeah, I see your hand.
What's that?
Yes, you're the I totally agree with what you just said, because I've been saying that for a while, too.
So why is it that August seems to be sort of like the crazy month for NFTs?
You know what I mean?
Like since they came out, it's like everyone's more into that.
And then like the rest of the year, it's like it's a give or take kind of thing.
But August, you know, like late, late summers, like kind of, you know, people get more into it.
Yeah, there's like I mean, there's it's funny when you're in any industry,
you really notice like cyclical patterns.
And yeah, there's certain things, you know, like, you know, I feel like the school season really has a big effect on consumer spending and like what people have to invest.
Same thing with the holidays.
And, you know, in the last couple of years, we really had a bunch of like artificial booms because we had people who were getting paychecks for for government stimulus and for, you know, for COVID and stuff.
So there was a lot extra cash, just kind of like people didn't know what to do with it.
And they were like, well, I might as well invest it or buy some stuff.
So it really did stimulate the economy and the crypto area.
But that's kind of dried up a little bit.
We've got people like dealing with the school coming back in the session.
Right.
So there's a little more bills.
But, yeah, I feel like, yeah, we're definitely going to have a volatile couple of months.
Yeah.
It seems like those people with all the extra cash, the ones that got the checks and shit, they're like all pissed off about it now.
And and they're just now starting to like wrap their heads back around it.
Yeah.
Well, they put that they put their COVID money in there and then it went sideways.
So they're like, fuck, you know, like I needed that money and then I use it as an opportunity.
And now I'm just like, so, yeah, some people ended up selling that stuff at a loss and just wasted their money.
And some people are just literally holding on to that bag, hoping that it'll come back.
And I think it will.
But like, it's tough.
You need that money to live like that's not the money you use to invest.
But I see your hand, buddy.
What's up?
No, no.
Let me let me make an example.
You know, the August is look like Halloween of the year.
It is a little, you know, it is weird.
And you can feel it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Let me let me I will be the first person to the share my artworks.
I don't know what happens for future.
I don't know.
After me, maybe the spaces will be crowded.
It's no matter.
I want to be a first person who share the artworks because I'm an artist.
Yeah, let's see it.
What kind of art do you make?
For that issue, I had a, you know, terrible week until now because I spent a hard week for myself to create these pieces.
But, you know, I'm a 3D artist.
Okay.
Maybe some people know me.
Okay, fine.
But this week, I came with the one new collections.
This is about the Master Pitbull.
I have a Pitbull family.
I make it sold out already 50 pieces in there, 52 pieces on the Ethereum.
But now I came up with the one new pieces in the continue of that collection with the different one of one art.
And this is about all of the people in the markets, all of the, you know, that type of the dog that this is my signature in the NFTs.
And, yes, this is the coolest stuff that I can show you guys because I know how you love the NFTs and crypto.
Eat a sleep.
GM repeat.
For sure.
We are for that issue.
We are here and for everything.
But I love to hear you guys, any feedbacks, any bad words, any negative or positive.
I will be here.
Be polite with me.
No, I'm kidding.
Don't polite with me.
Do as you want.
I like it.
I like it.
Lifting the coins.
He's pressing those cryptos.
Let's go.
And for first auction, who can start it?
Because just two days ago, I meet them.
For who, as a first person, just start my auction, I will give the special, special gift to them as an NFT, something valuable.
Cool.
And you're on Tezos?
Is that right?
Foundation?
No, just Foundation.
I'm in the Tezos.
It's just I'm collecting, for example, give back to the community and try to, you know, support another artist in Tezos or Ethereum.
But mostly on the Tezos, I'm not put the arts, just I buy the arts.
Gotcha.
Gotcha.
So what, you're on Ethereum, your collection?
Yes, on the Ethereum, on the Foundation.
Gotcha.
Cool.
Cool.
Yeah, give it, everyone, give it a retweet.
But yeah, so you've got, I see there's the other one, he's playing the guitar.
Do you actually do, like, music with it?
Or is it just, like, that's just the image?
No, that's just the image.
And every person want to take it for music, feel free for that.
Right?
Right?
Because, like, yeah, that would be, like, I could almost see that as, like, a cover image to, like, a, you know, to, like, a, to an album?
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
But I don't have that, you know, potential.
I don't have any specialty about music.
I keep it free as they want.
Right?
Well, I'm definitely trying to get more people to collaborate with each other and make music video type, like, content.
So, like, I mean, imagine taking that art, right?
And then maybe animating it or just playing a little clip of a musician who plays guitar, for example.
Right?
And you both team up, you play his music, you got your visual.
And now people are going to look at it a little bit more.
And you're going to put out both of your content a little bit more.
So, that's cool.
Like, I think you got to find a musician who you click with and then team up.
Because that's, like, you know, if you've already got that, especially if you've got, like, that kind of vibe, right?
With that piece, then that's, like, a good collab piece.
And then, like, the other one, that's where he's, like, pressing coins.
Like, nothing jumps out in mind right there for a collab.
But, you know what I mean?
Like, with different pieces that have different tones, that's really cool to, like, collaborate with people and then push out your content more.
Because, I mean, I personally love music videos and people love short-form video content these days.
Like, that's really being pushed out heavy in the algorithm.
Cool, man.
Thanks for sharing.
I see your hand, Wolfpunks.
Thank you for hearing me.
Welcome to the stage, Wolfpunks.
What's up?
You having a good day?
I'm doing great.
Awesome.
So, I have a completely similar idea but different idea than what you were saying, right?
Mm-hmm.
I know this will be later, but as my game comes out, right?
You know, maybe I hit up, you know, and I'm like, hey, Mr. Pitbull wants to get into the Guitar Hero game.
Right?
So, we can, you know, collab together, right?
And then also, like you were saying, if you got him to partner with, like, say, a Web3 musician, right?
Like, I'm going to host Web3 musicians in my game and I'm also going to have a jukebox in the corner where you can buy, like, you know, any musician that wants to participate, you can buy their NFT out of the jukebox.
Like, you know, you flip through, like, the old school jukeboxes and you see a track and instead of playing it, you mint it.
And we're going to do that at no cost to anybody in the community, you know?
But how cool would it be, like, if he tagged up, teamed up with somebody in the, you know, space, right?
On a music track, we put the music track and when the music track plays, you know, his character gets on stage and kind of replaces my guitar player and he plays the guitar or they come and they play together or, you know, something like that.
I mean, really, my game, you know, I want it to be, like...
So much collab potential for that game.
Exactly, you know, and that's the thing.
So the second question I had, and everybody asked me this, why Pitbulls?
Why Pitbull?
You know, the Potangeli, I had it before, but something else, this is my signature from two years ago in my NFT journey and I just choose that Pitbull for two type of the issues.
You know, one of them is some of the people, that area maybe I'm living, they don't pay attention about the dogs or cats or how they are living.
I try to show them, okay, they are character, the human body with that, maybe help them to understand, yeah, they have a chance to living like a human or they have a chance because they are alive.
But another thing, this is my about passion.
I love them, by the way.
Maybe they are a little, you know, angry, but kind.
No, no, the reason that I ask, everybody asks me, why Beagles?
Beagles are my favorite dog, but, you know, I don't, and I don't know if you've ever seen my project.
I, you know, would love you to come and jump in the Discord.
If you do, I'll give you a wait list and you can get some Discord tokens, but it's not really a show for my project.
What I do in real life is rescue.
So I actually kind of have a, I don't want to say a soft spot for pit bulls, but like I understand them, right?
I understand that a lot of times things can be said about a certain breed and it's not what the reality of a certain breed is.
And being in the South, I'm from Georgia, we have a bunch of pit bulls and pit bull mixes and stuff like that.
And so, you know, I deal with them on a regular case.
Right now at my house, I have a pit bull by Black Lab mix.
One of the sweetest dogs you would ever see.
So, yeah, that's just why I asked because I, you know, I like to, you know, but rescue, like, is the reason that I started into Web3.
So I wanted to build a project that I can actually afford to do rescue and stuff instead of trying to wait, like, on donations.
Donations are great and we're going to accept donations, but when we accept donations, we're going to be able to give 100% of the donation because we're going to have income coming in.
And that's what I love about Web3, you know, and we also, we try to help other, you know, other kind of aspects of, you know, not, you know, we do rescue that we're doing, but we've built a project that I'm working with, with Fungus Mungus, where we're going to do different.
We did a 77 collection of dogs, which I believe there's a pit bull in that, but we're doing 77 dogs on Solana.
80, 20% goes to the artist.
The rest is going to go to donation.
The next thing we're going to do is, like, see life, see turtles.
And so we kind of talked to Tricky about that yesterday and it kind of turns out that, you know, we'll kind of have a connection to a good place where we can donate it and it goes, you know, to a good cause.
Um, so, you know, I just like to ask because, you know, I'm like a crazy dog person.
So, and I really liked the art and everyone, everyone asked that question to you.
So it's like, it's always like, it's always like, why it's either why wolves or yeah, exactly.
For me, it's either why wolves or, you know, when I talk on a space, you know, I talk about beagles, like I've saved 209 beagles this year and it's like, people are like, why beagles?
And it's like, I have to explain it.
So, you know, I always just wonder.
Yeah.
And they have a really good explanation for, for why beagles too, because they are like targeted for testing.
That's, they're a really good test dog, which is a terrible thing to be labeled as, but yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
What's up?
No, wolf.
Wolf, sorry.
You know, I, I, nice to meet you, by the way.
You love the pit bull.
I love you, by the way.
And, but you know, my quick, fast answer is I'm crazy about pit bull, but it is hard to explain to people why you are crazy about people.
Okay.
I crazy love them.
And this is the, my passion about that.
But yeah, another issues or another topic why I started or why it's still I'm continue about this.
This is why maybe I love them.
Not maybe, sure.
Yeah, exactly.
And you know, the thing is too, is like, I always tell people like, you know, the reason that we went with wolves for my project, right.
And instead of doing a dog is because wolves, they kind of play along with the whole, like, you know, wolf of wall street or a, you know, a, a wolf and like, you know, trading.
But also wolves are kind of like the outcast.
Punks are kind of the outcast.
These stray dogs are, are kind of like the outcast.
You know what I mean?
So we have the wolves that will protect all of that.
You know what I mean?
And they draw it together in a pack, you know?
So yeah, that's the thing.
And, you know, I, I never understood why some people will say, oh, that's a bad dog or this is, I don't like that dog.
It's like, have you ever dealt with one?
Have you ever like seen one, you know?
And, and, uh, you know, it's, it's funny because, you know, you hear these stories, but like, you never really know these stories until you do something like I do.
And like I said, I, I mean, is there mean pit bulls?
Yeah.
We run into some in the shelter, but let me tell you something.
We run into a lot of black labs that can be mean.
We run into a lot of shit chihuahuas.
Some of them are vicious when they come in, you know?
And the thing is to me, the biggest part is making sure that you do two things.
You have an open mind to anything, whatever you're doing, have an open mind to it also, and put yourself in that situation.
So like when I'm dealing with dogs, like chihuahua, right?
I get down on the ground and get near them and get to their level.
So I'm not over towering them.
I don't push myself on dogs.
I'll go sit in a kennel with a dog and just sit there, let them come to me, right?
So it's like, it's easy to say something if you're not doing a part of it.
You know, it's just like when you start a job, right?
You may think like one thing about a job, like that it's going to be this way.
And then you get there and you're like, oh, this is completely different.
Same kind of thing, you know?
So, you know, I think it's cool that you're, you know, that you push them.
I love the art and, you know, I think more people need to be open to stuff like that.
Yeah, 100%.
And I'm trying to, I was just looking at Gunner's profile, but we need to share something up top.
You know, I'm sure everyone here is already following WolfPunks, but definitely give their pinned tweet just some love.
Cost nothing to give it some love and it'll share.
So, go down there.
I'll pin it up top.
Let's blow it up.
Make a comment.
Maybe tag a friend.
Love what you're doing.
Anybody that's in here, comes in the space, get a whitelist.
Get some Discord tokens.
I'm very generous with my Discord tokens.
We hold rumbles.
Like, we hold the daily rumble, you can earn 100.
A weekly rumble, you can earn 1,000.
And then also, not to shill somebody else, but Fungus Mungus is minting.
If you go mint, you'll get 2,500 Discord tokens from me.
If you mint four, you can actually earn yourself a free NFT because 10,000 Discord tokens gets you that.
Oh, and Tricky, by the way, that transaction failed.
So, that's why it didn't show up.
It finally failed last night.
So, obviously, I just got to get some ETH transferred over, and I'll be sending it out to you.
But, yeah, I did not forget you.
You got three NFTs coming your way.
Cool, man.
Cool, cool.
Yeah, no rush.
They're going to be diamond-handed anyway.
Yeah, I know.
But, you know, it's just nice to get them out, you know.
Yeah.
And, like I said, if you haven't seen Fungus Mungus' project, he's disabled.
He's awesome.
Dude, he's doing spaces while he's doing dialysis.
He's just a great guy.
And I'm not talking for him because, you know, he's already told me I can say anything I want.
So, he's not, like, ashamed of it.
You know what I mean?
And so, and it's not a pity party.
He's an advocate.
Yeah, exactly.
It's not a pity party.
It's just, you know, don't go buy because of that.
Go buy because the Fungus are pretty bad.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, I actually, so I pinned it up top, and I think I pinned up my Fungus that I minted underneath that tweet.
Maybe I didn't.
Oh, I'm going to do it right now.
But, yeah, I pinned it up top.
Definitely show him some love.
He's a cool guy.
He did raves in the 90s.
And the art, the AI art is pretty, it's pretty dope.
Yeah, he actually is the one that got me to kind of spread out and build my project that we're going to do on Solana.
We were going to do a mint party today, but I know he's not feeling good.
So, maybe Friday, we'll see.
But, you know, we're not in any rush to get it out because it's kind of pricey.
It's two and a half sold.
But, it is all, but the, you know, paying the artist, it's all a donation.
So, you know, we don't care if it takes a month, a week, a year.
You know, once we get it, here's the thing.
Everybody that knows, once we get this one minted out, we're starting on the next one.
And then, I think the third one is going to be a project.
We haven't figured out what we can do yet, but we're going to do a project.
And the proceeds are going to go to diabetes because that's what Stonk suffers from.
Yeah, thanks.
Yeah.
That's what's up.
And I was going to say, Gunner, even if you open a ticket, I'll give you some more.
He's already in my Discord.
But, anybody, even if you're in the Discord already, open a ticket, I'll give you some more tokens.
Let's go.
Yeah, get in that Discord.
And, you know what?
Maybe I'll even do something for the people who are just chilling here with us right now.
Yeah, there's a bunch of good spaces we should raid, too.
But, you know what?
If you want to jump into my Discord, I'm going to throw up a rumble.
Nice.
There we go.
So, let's just go.
I'm going to just go to Gen Chat.
Let's see.
GM, everyone.
GM, GM.
Oh, guess what?
What?
Guilty Bunny's so falling apart.
Yeah.
Who wants 50 grand?
Yeah.
That's not me.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I'm thinking of getting medieval on it.
I'm thinking about making, instead of bunnies, I think foxes will fit anyway, you know, better.
Right.
And I think about making a more punk rock look than, like, sexy looking, you know what I mean?
And then, who knows?
Maybe we'll even give an NFT away if you burn a Guilty Bunny.
I don't know.
Who knows?
What will happen?
Right.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You know?
Let's see.
Yes.
I don't have rumble already running in this channel.
Ah, here we go.
Join.
All right.
I responded to it and tagged it.
So, let's see what.
Oh, that's an old one.
Why is that pinned?
That's so weird.
What?
That is so weird.
Why did that get pinned?
Okay, let me just delete some of these pins real quick.
Hey, Poetry's in the house.
Welcome, welcome.
And Bella, you guys are welcome.
More than welcome to come up.
I've got to make you a co-host in case I'm not paying attention here.
All right, let me delete these real quick.
Thank you, Tricky.
I'm ready.
Hey.
How's it going?
Oh, I'm feeling good, man.
Looking forward to my trip tomorrow, man.
Yeah?
Where are you going?
To Canada.
Didn't you know?
Haven't you heard about it?
Isn't it like all the raging story on X how I went crazy for this guy in Canada?
And that was Elon Musk for a moment and all that.
Then, Tricky, I have a story to tell, man.
But not now.
Let's focus on what we're doing.
What are we doing?
Good night.
What part of Canada?
I will be...
I'll send you the details, Tricky.
We're blending and stuff.
Sent to you, personally.
We're gone.
Awesome.
What are you going there for?
To meet this guy, you know?
Uh-huh.
I know the whole story's about, man.
Ooh.
Cool.
Be safe.
Yeah, you be some myth makers.
This girl's like it.
You know?
Whatever.
Let's see.
Well, I tried to do a thing in gen chat.
What?
It's like...
It's weird.
I scroll down, and it automatically scrolls me up to the top.
I'm not sure why it's doing that.
Well, I'm just curious if you need advice, like girl advice, you know, for those girl's faces or whatever.
But I'm going to just put that in.
Okay, we have a rumble in the rumble channel.
All right.
Go to the rumble channel.
Rumble channel.
Okay, everyone.
You're going to have to explain to me, like, two years old.
What's the fucking rumble channel?
And holders.
All right.
We got 17 people in it.
Cool.
So, I'm going to start it up in a minute.
So, you still have a minute if you want to jump into that.
The Discord.
Go to rumble channel in the hold your reward section.
Oh, okay.
Hold on.
Yeah.
I try to, like...
I've been trying to do it, so I'll start a rumble.
And I'll let people join for, like, a week.
And then, during my spaces, I'll be like, all right, last chance.
Join.
And then we battle.
I did it last time, and I won myself.
So, it was pretty funny.
Hey, guys.
Hey.
Spella and Gunner.
How you doing?
You know, we're blessed.
Gunner pinned something.
Yeah.
I've been a tweet to my profile.
I couldn't...
It wouldn't let me pin it.
So, if you want to describe that and put it up there.
Please.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
And, Wolf Punks, I love your presentation tonight.
I have been in so many spaces with you, but I resonated tonight with you.
That, you know...
My mom was a dog rescuer, and we've always had dogs.
Yeah.
We have four dogs right now.
So, that's what we do with our furry friends is...
Yeah.
It definitely touches our heart.
So, that really touched me.
So, congrats.
Congrats, my guy.
Yeah.
Like I said, if you guys want some Discord tokens, you know, come over.
I'll give you 1,000 tokens apiece if you want.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
Yeah.
It's only 10,000 to win a, you know, an NFT.
And they're actually, like, good NFTs.
It's not something I'm cleaning out of my wallet.
Because I really appreciate my community.
Yes.
You know, and I feel like I'm building more of a bond with my community.
So, I can feel like giving them out.
But, like, we have OG Ape Club, Board Ape Pizza Club, Bedtime Stories, Gas Mask Gang,
Carol's Aliens, Wolf Punks, you know.
So, we give out good NFTs.
Yeah, but I think the key word here was community, right?
Putting your community before yourself.
Yes.
Yes.
Well, putting the dogs.
So, we don't lose track of that, you know.
Right.
The community.
Right.
The whole family.
Yeah, exactly.
Because I'll tell you, the best thing that I get all day is when I go in.
And I've got an actual adoption to post today.
But when I post the rest views that I do and all that stuff, the best part of my day is
the response back that I get from them.
You know, the love.
It's beautiful.
And you deserve all the love you get.
I mean, for all that hard work.
I mean, I'm an observer.
So, I might have a big mouth and, you know, be a little bit off, you know, the pirate mama
from Iceland or whatever.
But I do pay attention.
No, thank you.
Yeah.
Well, and...
And I do notice kindness because it's like a reflection for me.
Yes, well...
Be kind.
Okay.
I'm going to listen.
No, what I was going to say is that the good thing, in my opinion, about what I do is that
I've been doing rescue since 2017.
And so, this is just a way for me to do more.
You know, I will do rescue for the rest of my life.
Um, and I have a quick story that I'm going to tell, uh, but this past year in December,
I got a beagle that came from Clayton County Animal Shelter.
It had pneumonia.
He couldn't walk.
Uh, I got him to my house.
I fed him six pills in the morning, five at night after getting him to the vet.
He was throwing up blood.
We then, um, took him in and he had to have a leg amputation.
Um, and we went through and did that.
I rehabilitated him.
Uh, he had heartworms.
We treated him for that.
And he now, um, is adopted as an amazing home.
And I spent eight months with that dog and it was the best rescue that I've ever done.
And it's humbled me and it's taught me, you know, how amazing animals are because the whole
time I remember when he got his leg amputation, he came out.
And the lady said, he's probably not going to be very, you know, active or, you know,
want to see you.
And as soon as he walked around the corner, um, because, you know, beagles have mega smell,
he could smell me.
He picked his head up and started wagging his tail.
She couldn't believe it.
You know?
So, and like I said, that dog would be dead if I didn't save him.
So, you know, it just, you know, it's, it's, it's actually an honor for me to be a part
of these dogs lives and their journey.
So, you know, this is just a way for me to, but it's an honor for me to be here and listen
to this beauty.
I mean, I'm humbled by it.
I mean, I just want to walk your path, man.
Yeah.
Beautiful.
Yeah.
No, and that, that's the thing too, is that it's, it's a, that's why, um.
It's inspiring.
It's community.
It's home.
It's family.
Exactly.
And you get to meet so many good people, uh, you know, and so right now I'm building my,
like my core community.
Cause it's just me pretty much doing everything.
Um, and I just brought this guy Pat on and like, he is just as loving as animals as I am.
And that's the thing.
If you want to be part of my community, especially my core community, like you have to be
an animal person, you know, and I always do say this and I always say dogs, but I do
say this, we rescue just as many cats as we do dogs.
So you rescued me, right?
Yeah.
So that was some mission, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you know, that's, you know, that's the thing that's good about, um, what we do, you
know, and, and I can say that, um, you know, I recognize people.
You know, I, I keep my eye on the community that we have and everything.
And I really thank everybody that's involved.
Remember to hear now, like who's your brother?
Who's your sister?
Yep.
You go out, you find us.
Yep.
Yep.
One last thing.
One last thing.
Yeah.
My mom always said, and she's, she's now, what?
Works in her yard every day.
But she always said.
Excuse me.
My mother always said bullshit.
I'm fucking off.
That's what my mother said.
So I don't think about it.
What did your mother say?
Bullshit.
Like my mother.
Stop thinking about it.
Join the club.
My mom said love dogs.
They're the only ones.
They're the only, no.
Like my, I was a cool mom, you know.
I taught my kids to love dogs.
To know their own heart.
To know their own smell.
To respect their father no matter how much I might have disrespected him at times.
I told them to respect their father always.
And I never allowed anybody to step on him because he's the father of my children.
And that's it.
And I'll speak no more about that.
I love you guys.
Make sure you guys all get up there to the top.
I mean, you have to like.
Retweet all those.
At least I got some new DNA and, you know.
You know.
We can't be too retarded here.
Come on.
We need some new blood.
It's always good to have some new blood.
You said that word.
I cannot say, you know.
But, you know.
Yeah.
I can say that word.
I can say that word.
I'm one of them.
Yeah.
Just say it.
Yeah.
It's so funny.
We're all on the spectrum.
That's the reality of it.
But, especially if you're stuck on social media.
You're probably.
You've got some ADD or something on the spectrum.
Yeah.
We've got to be responsible.
It's tuned to your mind.
It really does like.
It's intuitive.
And it'll just keep you captivated on social media.
If you've got, you know, ADD.
It's definitely working to our mindset.
We're here for those kids, aren't we?
I will also say, I love your NFT collection.
Mine?
No, it can't be.
It's directly mine.
No, the Horror 4, is that what it is?
Hound 4?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's got the voodoo dolls.
Yeah.
Yeah, I love them, dude.
I'm a huge horror fan.
Like, if you name a horror movie, I've seen it.
And so, anything that is like that kind of looking, you know, just.
And it's, I just really, you know, I'm in the, I'm in the space where, you know, I like seeing
something unique, you know, not another monkey.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, and I'm not saying there's some monkey projects that I don't like, but, you know,
I just love something like this, you know, because this is almost like cross between,
like, evil, but at the same time, like, it kind of looks inviting, you know what I mean?
Like, he's got a growl and stuff, but at the same time, they're kind of.
Stop it, stop it, stop it.
I need help with my collection.
I mean, I was, had this idea in the beginning to start just with the girls and make, like,
futuristic, like, so they're, like, recognizable, like, you can recognize them.
They're my granddaughters and it's an ode to them, but they're still, like, I'm going
to use AI and NFT the shit out of it.
Is that a good idea just to do that and the Völva?
What do you guys think?
I mean, there's, the thing about AI is it's a really cool tool.
So, if you can, whatever tool you use in order to create the thing you're envisioning
in your mind, it's, that's, that's fine.
Okay, I agree.
Now, if you're using it as, like, you put in three words and just sell whatever pops
up, that's cheating.
But if you fine tune the prompt and you actually, like, work to create something that you're
envisioning, that's art.
Okay.
Like, it doesn't matter what tool you use, whether it be Photoshop or AI or, you know.
Just give it credit, you know.
Yeah.
If you make cool shit, people will, like, it doesn't matter how you make it.
I'm going to burn all that other fucking shit when I can open a computer, you know.
And I'm going to just make cool shit.
That's it.
No matter what I make, it will be motherfucking what?
Beautiful.
Because, well, who am I?
Poetry.
SpaceX, if I want to, but mainly.
Skullcorn.
Make it.
Brothers.
Yerema.
Yeah.
You absolutely just got to, like, keep making stuff.
Keep sharing stuff.
It doesn't matter, like, it doesn't matter what form or medium you use.
Make all kinds of different stuff and see what sticks.
Yeah, I can do whatever I want.
Because, you know, I have my brothers looking out for me.
So, that'd be cool.
Yeah.
I'm just going to be, like, me and dance around with a bear and find a man.
And, you know, whatever.
Do you have anything you want to share?
Like, right now, no.
Not really.
Nothing's ready.
It's, like, ugly and shit.
So, I'm not going to share it.
Cool.
No pressure.
No, when it's ready.
I'll just leave everything as it is for now.
The fucking Facebook, the fucking whatever, Instagram, it's all ugly.
I'll just leave it like that.
And I go and make beautiful shit.
And when the beautiful shit is ready, I'll replace it all.
Yeah.
Is it the plan?
Cool.
Yeah.
Well, when you've got good stuff to share, man, you're always welcome to stop in.
Yeah, I'm not going to share my shit no more.
Yeah.
Tag me and stuff, and I'll help share it out, too.
Yeah.
When it's ready.
Yeah.
When it's beautiful.
When it's ready.
Yeah.
No stress.
I know.
I know I don't need to stress.
I'm going to play around a little bit.
Get, you know, a little bit of energy.
Find myself a man.
Someone strong.
Fast.
But not faster than you.
Never.
Yeah.
Because nobody's faster than who?
My brother.
Exactly.
It's good to have people that got your back.
Brothers.
The best.
My fucking best.
Wow.
You know what I like?
I've seen a lot of people doing with AI now.
Is that we use AI for inspiration, right?
So they'll do different prompts, and they'll get something out there, and then they will take it and then kind of hand draw it.
You know what I mean?
And make it.
Yeah, I call that freaky, freaky, freaky guy.
I'll get back in touch with him.
He's a genius man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Genius art of prompts.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's kind of cool.
You know, I'll do something.
I'm making my head a little bit now.
And then I'll come crawling back home, you know.
I'll do some good stuff.
I'll tell you what I like, too, is the potential.
Yeah, we could use those connections, yeah.
It'd be cool.
The potential that you run into with, because I've come up with some ideas.
Like, I'm not good with 3D art.
Like, doing 3D art, right?
What I'm good with is, like, looking at 3D art, like I said, and kind of getting some ideas from it.
And, like, we were talking to B-Wiz yesterday from the AI Hounds, you know.
Mm-hmm.
And I like how he, like, his art is kind of, like, different.
Different topic, yeah.
I got it.
Nothing will come from me, brother.
I'm just motherfucking spectacular.
Yeah.
Tricky, you're pretty good with AI art, aren't you?
Well, I'm sure Tricky is just resting for now, but I will be DMing him, and because he has many tricks in his bags to teach me on the DM, on the back end.
Tricky, how are you doing with your AI?
Doing good.
I've actually, so I've got a couple of different AI projects that I'm working with, but I'm, like, super, like, I can't, if I can't get it exactly the way I would.
If I don't want it, I'm not going to release it.
So I'll, like, try to make something and make, like, 200 or 1,000 images, and then you're, like, yeah, I don't like any of these.
I'm, like, next.
So, yeah, it's slow.
I mean, like, I'm very, like, particular with what I'm trying to create.
So if I can't get the prompt right, it just doesn't go anywhere.
But there's so many different types of AIs out there, and there's a couple different paid versions we're trying with.
The dragons are coming out really cool.
That's really awesome, because it's, like, we scanned in the physical dragon with the sculpture, right?
So it's not, like, AI.
It's completely, like, just AI added the texture and, like, the colors.
But the physical, like, the main, you know, feature is the actual original dragon.
So it's pretty cool.
It's posted up there at the top.
You can see the, one of the little sneak peeks of it.
It's the first pin post.
But the top left has got, like, just a little picture of one of those AI dragons.
That's only, like, a third of the image or a quarter of the image.
Just a little teaser.
I don't want to show the whole image until they're minted.
But, yeah, some pretty cool stuff.
Definitely love playing with AI.
It's just a fun thing to experiment with.
You know, if you like creating cool stuff, you just, you could have so much fun just playing with it, you know?
I'll tell you what I like, is there's this, like, bumblebee thing.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
You're not talking about my cat, are you?
Yeah, the bumble cat.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The scary fuck.
Yeah.
Yeah, I kind of like him.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, you wake up and he's cuddled up with you in bed, you know?
It's just what they call nightmare fuel.
Yeah, I love it.
It is funny.
I definitely, like, I've been making more of those and it's weird.
Like, sometimes you just get an image that's not, like, it's just not a right image, you know?
I mean, it's okay for abstract art, but it's not like a, I'm trying to make stuff that's, like, photo real.
Yeah.
What I've come to find out, so, for me, with AI art, what I do is, like, let's say I'm wanting to make a banner, right?
Like a Twitter banner or something, right?
Like, what I've been able to, like, really get good at is making different, like, backgrounds and looks and stuff.
And then I can, you know, put my imagery over it, you know?
Because it was, like, sometimes I was doing a banner and it's, like, all black background with, like, logos on it, you know?
And it just kind of looked bleh, you know what I mean?
So, I think that, and I've gotten better, you know what I mean?
Because, you know, at first, you know, you get, like, I don't know, maybe not only not what you like, but, like, you know, just it doesn't even represent what you're looking at.
Sometimes it kind of goes off kilter until once you kind of, I almost want to say, like, tell a story with your prompts.
But at the same time, you have to have specific words, you know?
But I think that's a story that's got bad grammar.
Right, right, exactly, right, right?
Because if you notice, if you do it, like, with good grammar, then it comes out, like, with teeth sticking out of their head.
You know what I'm like?
You know, so, but, like I say, for me, what I utilize it for is making, like, banners or, you know, backgrounds for images that I'm doing.
And that's been very useful, you know?
Yeah, that's what it's good at.
It's really good at, like, piecing stuff together and making backgrounds.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I remember I made it, so I made a beagle playing, I was like, I'm going to try to make a beagle.
And he was playing a guitar, right?
And it looked great, except that he had, like, ten legs.
And I was like, okay, wait a minute.
And then I went back and I was like, okay, let me make a stage.
So I made, like, a stage that you would have, like, on a, you know, like an old school, like, what do you call it?
Like, you know, like where plays and stuff are done, you know what I mean?
So I made a stage like that.
And the stage came out really good.
And then I used that and put some images up there.
But, yeah, I'm not anywhere close to where I can make animals because my animals always come out, like, ridiculous.
Yeah.
Like, that cat thing, that one came out so, like, realistic looking.
Yeah.
Hey, what's up, cats?
But, uh, so when this thing come up the first time, though, it literally was, like, stick figures.
Like, the AI made a stick figure, like, straight up, like, black leg stick figure.
I was, like, photorealistic everywhere else.
But the main focal character has, like, stick figure legs.
Are you kidding me?
Like, it was hilarious.
But, hey, what's up, cats?
I see cats jumped up to the stage.
I know you're running around, probably working right now.
So I appreciate you stopping in.
Not yet.
I'm about to.
Yeah.
You having a good day so far?
Eh, it's kind of slow.
It's raining outside.
How are you guys doing today?
Better rain than fire.
Ooh, what if it's a fire rain?
Right?
Like, after seeing what happened in Maui, you know, it's like.
Yeah.
Nah, nah.
Yeah, it's like, shoot.
At least it's not fire.
Yeah.
Hey, it's been cool hanging with you guys.
Hey.
Mike.
Nice seeing you.
I'm giving you a follow-up back on.
Sorry, I've been, like, crazy busy.
I'm making excuses, I know.
But, you know me.
Yeah, you're always welcome to pop in.
Meet some good friends.
But I'm going to go running.
Oh, well, Mac is still, like, evaluating me.
I get you, Mac.
I mean, yeah.
Awesome.
Yeah, it's cool.
But I'm going to be off my way now.
Do some work.
Sounds good.
Yeah.
Have a good day.
Bye.
Be productive.
Stay positive.
I'll catch you later.
Always.
Bye.
What's up, Meg?
Welcome to the room.
Yeah, so, Katz, what are you up to?
You're about to head out?
Yeah, to start my routes and stuff like that.
Nice.
I'm just dreading it because I know I'm going to be getting wet.
Right.
You got a poncho or something like that?
Not really.
I just got, like, a little hoodie with a thing.
I need a rain jacket or a poncho.
So, here's the question.
If you run in the rain, do you get wetter or do you save yourself from getting wet?
You end up just getting wet on the front.
You get really wet on the front and not wet on the back.
That's what I noticed.
Okay.
Well, that's good because I like sitting on the – sitting down and not be wet.
But the only problem is I don't even know why I'm asking because Mr. Autoimmune says no running anyway.
Oh, yeah.
I'm not running anyway.
I haven't run in, like, 10 years.
Wait, you can't run?
Also, I got – see, I had double knee surgery, too, on both legs.
So, I had to, like, kind of, like, re-walk again.
So, running never – I never really got back to running because it's, like, a – I still don't have, like, weird – I don't have, like, full feeling in my shins.
And it's just a weird – running is a hard action to relearn.
But then also, if I go – if I'm – my heart's beating, like, real hard for, like, 5, 10, 15 minutes, I will throw myself into a flare and, like, get really sick and, like, start getting super nauseous and then I'll get sick.
So, like, I can take, like, groceries in from outside.
But, like, I can't mow the lawn anymore or, like, go for a run.
That's just not – it's just not helpful.
It just instantly gets me sick.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Damn, I didn't know it was like that.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, energy is – energy is very limited.
And if it's hot –
So, you can't do, like, elliptical or treadmill or nothing like that?
No, no, no.
I haven't done – I haven't done cardio in it.
No, I don't do cardio.
I don't do – I don't work out anymore, like, yeah.
Sheesh.
Yeah, no, it's completely – I was super, you know, ambitious with working out when I was younger.
But now it's, like, I'll do maybe some push-ups or some pull-ups.
But, like, that's literally all I can do.
And I have to do them for, like, just a short period of time.
Come back to it later.
Yeah.
How about this?
How about you're punished for – how do I say that?
You're punished for excitement.
Yeah, you can't get too happy.
You can't get too worked up in any way.
Any kind of – even, like, happy emotions.
Like, good energy is still, like, stress.
Yeah, it's literally to the point where I will be, like, oh, I haven't seen Tricky for a week.
He must be having a flare-up.
Like, and I know because I go through that where I'll have, like, you know, you eat something, it might spin you off or who knows.
But, yeah, running, nope.
Yeah, running sucks.
I never liked it because I always had knee problems.
But now I got my knees fixed, and I'm like, yay, I can run again.
But, no, I don't do that.
The only physical activity that I like is downhill skiing because it doesn't require a whole lot of energy.
You're just basically not falling.
And it's cold, so I don't overheat.
But I overheat super, super fast.
Oh, my God, I know, right?
Yeah.
I can't do, like – I totally have given up on, like, amusement parks and stuff like that.
It's just too hot during the day.
And then also, like, I can't – I can't even – I tried to go on a roller coaster last time, and that did not go well.
I couldn't walk for, like, 15 minutes.
I was so fucked up.
It messed me up so hardcore.
Yeah, I was dizzy, nauseous.
I literally could not walk.
I was just, like, I had to sit down and just wait for, like, it to pass.
Yeah, like, I remember – this was a little while ago, but I was walking my dog, right?
And I got, like, halfway down my driveway.
And, like, I'm like, okay.
I started feeling bad, so I'm like, we got to turn around.
And then I couldn't walk.
I couldn't move.
And I ended up standing there for, like, 45 minutes until my wife got home, and she took the dogs.
And then I was able to kind of, like, finagle myself into the car and then, you know, hurt for the rest of the night.
That's what bothers me a lot is my hips.
Yeah.
Hey, we got DCWB in the house.
What's up, DCWB?
Yeah.
Physical stuff is really a pain in the ass.
And, like, you have to stay strong so you can still do stuff.
But I, like, I can't have – like, I can't do cardio.
Like, I just can't.
Like, I haven't done cardio in, like, 10 years.
Like, it's really fucking annoying to not be able to work out when you want to work out.
You know what I mean?
I used to be, like, Superman.
I used to be so strong, like, ridiculously strong.
And now it's, like, I can't.
I just can't.
I can blame.
You know what, DCWB?
Yeah.
Stop being lazy, and I'm going to get strong for you, bro.
I hate that.
The whole thing.
Like, stop being lazy.
It's, like, I don't even think lazy is a thing.
Honestly, I don't think people feel lazy.
I feel like there's other issues that are contributing to that feeling because, like, when you're healthy and you want to move, you want to do shit, you know?
No, no.
I feel lazy.
I think half of it is lazy, and the other half is physical.
No, I think it's all physical because if you didn't have the physical thing, you wouldn't feel like you didn't want to do stuff.
That's the thing is my argument is that when you are healthy, both psychologically and physically, you want to move.
You want to do shit, you know what I mean?
Like, laziness is, like, quote, unquote, laziness is almost like a disability.
It's almost like a mental, it's like depression, you know what I mean?
It's like there's usually something else, either physical or mental, that's making you in that mindset that's debilitating to this certain standpoint, you know what I mean?
A lot of times it's got something to do with anxiety or depression or a physical disability that's actually preventing you, you know?
A lot of people have, like, autoimmune issues and stuff like that.
They don't even understand the full impact of them.
It's really intense.
And we have, like, a really toxic environment, and it seems to be triggering more autoimmune issues.
Yeah.
Well, like I said, I told you, I feel like I had it my whole life.
I just didn't – it wasn't, like, full on.
Yeah.
You know, just things I recognize afterwards, you know what I mean?
And, like I said, anxiety, you know, the fact that, like, you know, you just have things happen to you, and you're like – you focus on that one thing.
But if you really think about it, there's more shit going on, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
They're complicated.
They are.
They cross-mingle, and different situations overlap in a lot of ways that people just don't realize, you know?
Yeah.
I don't have an excuse, man.
I'm just lazy, I think.
But, well, I mean, maybe –
I force train myself.
But that's the thing is you do like to train.
Like, when you – that's the thing is people love to be productive.
People love to be healthy and strong.
Like, people – they do.
Like, I'm going to tell you my peak that I got.
I really took Bruce Lee's training to heart to the point that I did almost his regimen.
So, Bruce Lee's flaw was that he worked out, overworked out, the equivalent of 10 years in one year.
What does that mean?
This man used to work out almost 14 hours a day.
I worked out almost eight to nine hours a day, six days a week for a year.
So, at my peak, I got to that hitter.
I was the same way, bro.
I love Bruce Lee and everything.
And I was basically – Bruce Lee and Arnold Schwarzenegger were, like, my gurus.
And I was lifting weights for, like, 12 hours.
Like, my senior year, I had, like, very reduced schedule and stuff for classes.
I was taking, like, dual enrollment.
So, I was basically taking mostly college classes so I didn't have to really go to school during, like, normal hours.
So, I was working out, like, 12 hours a day just lifting weights.
And I could not get tired.
There was one time when my dad came over and he's like, we're lifting these pipes to set up – we're making signs.
I need you to come over here and show these guys what to do because they're not – they don't know how to do it.
And there's, like – so, I go out there.
There's, like, these three full-grown men, like, three Mexican guys.
And they're – and I – my dad's like, just take this pipe.
Go put it over here.
So, I grab this tube.
I walk it across the yard.
I put it down in the dirt, standing up so they can fill it full of concrete and put a sign in it.
It seemed really straightforward.
And they're all looking at me, like, dumbfounded.
And I'm like, what's the problem?
And they're like – and they're like, nothing.
You did it right.
You did fine.
Go ahead.
You can leave.
The pipe weighed, like, 180 pounds.
So, like, that was the – that was maybe the issue.
It was kind of bulky and it weighed, like, 180 pounds.
So, they're having trouble moving them around.
But I just, like, picked – like, during my workout, I just walked outside, grabbed one of them and just threw it down.
Just walked it across the yard, you know, threw it down.
Like, what's the issue here?
They get totally unaware even how much it weighed because I was lifting, like, crazy weight.
All day long.
I just could not get tired.
Yeah.
And then here, after, like, I hit, like, my mid-20s, it just – my body revolted on me.
Just completely 180 flip, like, you were no longer Superman.
You can do stuff for 15 minutes and then you're useless.
Good luck.
Yeah, I think when I was younger, like, a young teenager, I was stronger than when I was at my peak.
Right.
At my peak, I think I was more agile than strong.
So, yeah.
It's just weird.
It's just weird.
But you got to train a little bit.
You have to – definitely there's a balance of how much is a good amount to work out.
Because if you overdo it, you cause too much, you know, damage to your joints and stuff.
But – but, yeah.
I'm going to post a picture of me in high school and then me at my peak.
Can you guys hear me?
Yeah.
Okay.
So, like, I – mine was never working out, right?
Mine was working.
So, I've been going with my dad commercial fishing since I was, like, five years old, you know, in the summer.
But the time I hit, like, 12, I started, like, really working, right?
And I would work in the summers.
And so then, like, I got out of work and, you know, I stopped doing that.
I went to college and, like, I started doing automotive, which I was doing automotive before that.
You know, I always worked on automotive.
But, like – so, I used to drive four hours a day to work, two hours home, two hours there.
And I would – I would work 12, 14 hours a day there, right?
Like, nothing.
And, like, just – and, like, crazy physical work, you know what I mean?
And, like, not only that, I – automotive for a while, like, traditional automotive at a dealership.
And I went and worked for a company doing well work where I did all the work on the trucks, hydraulics, you know, bobcats, stuff like that.
But in the meantime, we didn't have stuff, you know.
So, I would go to work with – you know, and work on wells and stuff.
And we did wells for hospitals and, like, cities and stuff.
So, you know, like, four-inch galvanized, you know, pumps that weigh a couple hundred pounds.
You know, the wire was, like, the size of your fucking finger, you know what I mean?
And so, when I became – when the tick disease came down, because it just, like, crushed me, right?
And then, of course, the autoimmune kind of came into play because of that.
And I think it – like I said, I think I already had it.
But it was, like, a big transition to go from doing – to working nonstop to, like, doing nothing and not being able to do anything.
Anyway, that was my biggest hurdle.
Yeah.
So, it's definitely a mindfuck.
And most people have problems asking for help.
So, if you don't ask for help, then things just kind of spiral out of control.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's definitely tough.
But once you find the – I feel like it's also an amazing thing to go through because when you come out the other side of having an autoimmune disease,
you have so much more empathy and, like, understanding of, like, other people's, like, psychology and stuff like that.
Well, you know, here's the thing, too.
Like, it's a bit of sweet because I would have never done my Web3 project.
Yeah?
Oh, yeah.
A hundred percent.
I'd probably still be a personal trainer.
Yeah.
You know?
So, I mean, it's – you know, it can be good and bad.
You know what I mean?
And don't get me wrong, don't anybody go out and get an autoimmune disease, but that's okay.
Yeah.
At the same time, do look at things that happen in your life that make you pivot and try to look, you know, at the –
Silver lining.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's always a silver lining.
Well.
Well, no, there's not.
But sometimes there's usually a silver lining.
If you can get past the cloud, you can see it.
It's hard to see the silver lining when you're in the cloud, though.
But, yeah.
It is.
Come on, boy.
Here's the thing.
I feel like – and I don't know if you're like this, but for me, it got to a point where it was learn to deal with it or crawl in a hole and die.
You know, or maybe not die, but give up.
You know what I mean?
And just like do nothing, you know?
So it's like one or the other, you know?
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
Now, you hit – like you have – the thing is you actually – when you hit the bottom.
Yeah.
When you hit the bottom and you're like there's one step below this and that's not an option.
Right.
Exactly.
You know, like, you know, I mean – you know, and still too, you know what?
I also – I look at people like stonks and I'm like I need to shut up, you know, or like I need to –
Fungus?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Like I'm like –
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Some people – you see other people's problems and you're like what am I complaining about?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some people really do have to fucking – they're just constantly going through this gambit of different types of issues.
And it's just – it's really impressive what some people put up with or can deal with, you know?
I mean you don't have a choice.
Like you don't have a choice.
You know, you got to keep pushing.
And it is inspirational to see though like some – the success and the mindset that some people can have after going through all that.
Yeah.
Well, I just posted.
Oh, you just said your high school photos?
You put them in the comments?
The first one is my high school, then my peak.
Right.
And then after you lost a bunch of weight?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, like half the size of what you used to – yeah.
That's awesome.
I got to do that again though because like I'm like 330 again.
Yeah.
First time I was 300 and I went down to 170.
That's intense.
Yeah.
I think I'm like 165 right now.
So, that's like my – that's like a healthy weight for me.
It's pretty standard.
I was always trying to get to like 180.
But I can't really pack on the muscle like I was hoping I would be able to.
So, it's just kind of like – yeah.
It is what it is.
It'll probably be about this week.
Have you thought of a mass gainer?
What was that?
Have you thought about mass gainers?
Oh, yeah.
I've tried all of them.
I've tried everything.
The problem is that most of those are loaded with sugar and whey protein, which I'm allergic to.
So –
Try carnivore.
But they're all – none of them.
The problem is my – my Crohn's –
Because I'm lactose intolerant.
Yeah.
The problem with Crohn's though is like it's just not absorbing the food.
Right?
Yeah.
Like I have to drink.
It has to be – I mean it's good to be liquids for sure.
Easily absorbable liquids or super like burnt or just cut.
Because the name brand carnivore is beef-based isolate.
And that's what I use because I'm like lactose intolerant so I can do no whey or none of that.
And they have a weight gainer for that, for mass.
Yeah.
And they also have like food for people that want to do like the food supplement stuff.
Yeah.
I take – I take different – I take different supplements and stuff like that in order to like keep my – to keep my weight on because it's – it's hard to do it with the food since my body won't process the food.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Natural – natural grass-fed beef.
Yeah.
That's good.
That's a good source of protein.
I use like a beef collagen powder and a couple other ones that are like easily absorbed.
That's like – that's been a lifesaver actually because the – I actually will absorb some of that.
But it just – I can't absorb enough to gain weight.
It just doesn't work.
You know?
Have you ever tried beef broth?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Does it help or does it not?
Yeah.
It's good.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Beef broth is good.
I'll use – I'll use broth to make all kinds of different sauces and soups and stuff like that.
So like – like beef broth – like I'll fry up some shiitakes and like reduce some onions and then use some beef broth and make like an au jus out of all of that and then put that on top of like a steak, right?
And that's like a bomb and it's super healthy and it's got all this extra nutrients and stuff.
But I actually just got into beef broth because I've kind of fallen off the wagon, but I have to get back on it.
I do carnivore.
It's the best thing for me as far as for my autoimmune disease.
Yeah.
But one of the things that I found out is – or that I found to kind of add some flavor is the guy – I buy all my beef off of a guy that butchers his own cattle and stuff, you know?
Nice.
And so he makes bone broth and it's really good, you know?
So I've just kind of got into that.
Thanks.
He makes his own tallow too.
Yeah.
So I used to – you know, I was using a lot of like oils or butters.
So like – but you have to be careful with oil because they will show good shit, especially like seed oils.
Talon or tallow is great for a great – go with a net – you know, use up the whole animal and also cut down on your use of like butter.
Yeah.
But yeah.
Yeah, much – but it's still – I mean it's still an animal fat so it's not as healthy as like some of the other options obviously but it tastes good.
It's relatively – it's relatively healthy and there's a bunch of other micronutrients and stuff like that in it too that are – that are better than butter for sure.
Yeah.
Well, and the thing is too is like I say – so like I don't know if I've told you but like vegetables will kill me.
Like literally like –
Veggies?
Like depending on – like I can – dark green vegetables seem to be okay.
But like – what is one?
Carrots bother me.
Onions bother me.
Which kill me because I love onions.
So it's like I – my food is like very limited on what I eat.
So it's kind of nice to have at least a different flavor to it, you know?
So do you guys like develop this like after the fact or were you born with it?
Both.
So like autoimmune diseases you're usually born with and you can have some symptoms when you're younger like which I did too.
Like I had stomach issues and stuff when I was younger and I just never understood why.
But it wasn't – it wasn't as bad.
My – for the most part my digestion was fairly normal.
I was just always underweight and didn't understand why.
But once I hit about 25, my hormones changed enough that it really kind of like kicked in and took full effect.
In Wolf's situation, it was brought on by the amplification of a tick bite from Rocky Mountain spotted fever, right?
But there's a bunch of different ways that autoimmune diseases can be triggered in your system through stress and hormonal changes.
So, yeah, we both have different situations but almost the same end result which, you know, exacerbated compromised immune system.
Yeah, and I think I had it as I was a kid but like you were saying like it just – because I had a couple times – like there was one time when I got a vaccine.
I think it was a tetanus vaccine.
And I couldn't walk for like two days afterwards because my knees locked up.
And so that's the reason that like I don't have the COVID vaccine because my doctor told me not to get it because he said you don't know what it could do with some of your stuff because I have like a double-edged sword.
I have the autoimmune disease but so Rocky Mountain spotted fever is a tick-borne illness so you get the Rocky Mountain spotted fever but you might have five or six other diseases that don't show up.
So that's why finally I'm going to a specialist in Clearwater soon where they do – like most blood scans are like a hundred whatever template scan or whatever – a panel, a hundred panel scan, you know, of normal stuff.
The one you go through, I think they do 600.
So they do like these really weird diseases and stuff and you can have this other stuff.
And so like just little things can trigger that – like I have parasites in my system and I've been on ivermectin.
I've been on malarone which is – it's another parasitic drug but it's two drugs together.
And what happens with me is they kind of almost get the Rocky Mountain spotted fever cured but there's so many other diseases and then it doesn't kill the parasites off and then they come back.
So kind of gross to think about that you're walking around with parasites in your system but there's a lot more people that have parasites in their system than they know.
But yeah, so I do think I've always had it.
I just think that this really brought it to the forefront.
Yeah.
It always – they always exacerbate later on in life and then depending on what other complications you have, you can actually collect more.
Like when you have one – once you have one autoimmune issue, it seems to be others kind of pile up.
Yeah.
And basically what my doctor has told me and what we've talked about is that the autoimmune disease is not going to go away.
You're going to deal with that.
But what we can do is get rid of the – or hopefully get rid of the tick-borne illness and then, you know, it will make the autoimmune more manageable.
Right.
Calm it down a little bit.
Yeah, absolutely.
How are you doing with the team?
Good.
I'm going to have to work more soon.
I've been doing a little bit less.
Yeah.
You know, like – yeah, I've been stretching it out.
So – but it still seems to – it seems like I started out normal dosage and then I cut it back a little bit.
Mm-hmm.
Seems to be doing good because of the fact that I have – you know, it's like you were saying how it kind of builds up in your system.
Yeah.
You know, so it's good, but it definitely helps.
I think it kind of makes it like a – I don't know, like a baseline where you don't feel like the ups and downswings so much.
Yeah.
You know.
I don't feel like death.
Right.
Exactly.
That's what I'm saying.
I don't – like, you know, there's been times like – and this is the scariest thing before.
Like, you know, I'll be feeling okay and then I'll go to the store.
And I just start feeling like death.
Yeah.
And so I don't have that – those kind of extremes, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Isn't that fucking amazing?
It is.
It's crazy to – you know, the thing is is that I meant to tell you too is I found this doctor who cured herself from Lyme disease, right?
She ended up getting antibiotics and that helped, but before that, she was just taking vitamins and certain herbs and stuff like that.
And I was like – I was like, wow, that's kind of – kind of same idea.
You know what I mean?
Mm-hmm.
I mean, good nutrition – you know, your body is really strong and powerful.
With good nutrition, you can do lots of good stuff.
Yeah.
But it's just – we just don't have it.
We don't – you know?
Like, we're not getting all of it that we need.
Like, there's so many cool plants on this world that we just don't know what they even do.
I mean, it's even like the meat that I buy from that guy versus, like, if you get it from the store.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Because what he does is he grass feeds all his cattle, and then at the end, he grain feeds them for a little bit that just puts some fat on it, you know?
Yeah.
And, like, not only do they live a better life, right, but it's, like, you know, not full of antibiotics and all this shit, and it's, like, completely – you feel differently eating it.
You know what I mean?
Like, you don't feel like you get nutrients when you buy steak that's from the store versus that you buy from, you know.
It tastes different.
It feels different.
Yeah.
So, yeah, and all of that – the little bits of bullshit, it all adds up to stress that you can't deal with if you have an autoimmune disease.
Yeah.
Normal people can't deal with it either, but it doesn't make them feel like they're dying the next day.
Right, right.
But it's just super obvious if you have a sensitive system.
Yeah.
But, yeah.
Well, I'm glad that, like – I'm so glad we've, like, discovered this and, like –
Yeah, me too.
So, you know, the thing is, is that I want to do is – I haven't got to see my friend, like I told you, with the thyroid disease, but I want – when I get to see her, I'm going to bring her some.
I want her to try it because, you know, it's, like, you know, it's crazy how something that small can make such a difference, you know?
Yeah.
Absolutely.
I can't wait to get this – get the labels done and the bottles set up.
Yeah, I know.
That's going to be the game changer right there.
You know what I'm saying?
Because it's, like –
Well, that's – then it's, like – I mean, then it's an official product.
It's, like, it's a complete product.
It's actually, like, shelf ready at that point.
Right, right, exactly.
And then here's the thing.
Then you can – you know, you get into health food stores, but then you can get into stores.
Like, I would love to see it in – the best place I could imagine seeing it is Starbucks.
Yeah, that's my primary goal.
Yeah, because –
All the tea places and coffee places and then also gyms.
Oh, yeah.
Health food stores.
Yeah.
And then also I'm going to target the conference centers and work offices.
Oh, yeah.
Like, imagine your productivity.
Yeah, yeah.
Watch.
Just watch your productivity increase when you swap out Elixir for your fucking sodas.
Well, and you're – you don't need energy drinks anymore because it's all bullshit energy, you know, and this is gone.
Yeah.
And we'll have Dragon Juice Energy Elixir and Dragon Juice Sleepy Dragon Juice Elixir.
Like, we have basically every different possible thing, and we'll try – we'll definitely target those specific markets, too.
We're even going to make that can size.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just to – yeah.
I'm thinking, like, the little Elixir, like, five-hour energy size and, like, Red Bull size.
Yeah.
Yep.
Yep.
Yep.
Well, when you get – when you guys get going, let me know because there's a –
We'll give you a affiliate link for your website.
Yeah, and I've got a store that I have in mind already in – it's in Five Points in Atlanta.
It's a health food store, and they kind of, like, welcome people coming in and, like, you know, like, they let people bring their ideas to them, and they'll look at it.
You know what I mean?
Like, they're not completely shut off.
You know what I'm saying?
So –
Yeah.
Did I tell you that we had somebody who tried to copy the recipe, and they were giving it to people, and they sent a bunch of people to the hospital?
Oh, no.
You know what?
I was on a space.
You were talking about that, but it was, like, right at the end of the space.
So that happened, but then also a friend of mine drank the entire four-quart packet in one cup.
Oh, my God.
They – he actually – his wife made it, and they were making mushroom tea, and he made mushroom tea and decided to use the elixir as the base because normally his stomach hurts.
And the stomach didn't hurt at all, but his wife asked how much to put in there, and she's like, oh, he's like, I don't know.
Use the packet.
And she used the entire packet.
The packet was enough for four quarts, not one cup.
Right.
The whole packet and poured over a boiling water through it and basically just made one cup.
So he had one super strong cup of elixir for 30 bucks, basically.
And I was like – so I asked him the next day.
I was like, well, later on, I was like, so how would you like the tea?
And he's like, oh, I just had it that one time.
It was good.
I'm like, what do you mean the one time?
Well, why haven't you had it since then?
And he's like, well, I had it all.
I'm like, what do you mean?
What are you talking about?
So anyway, so yeah.
But the good thing is he didn't go to the hospital.
I didn't – like he didn't – there wasn't any bad effects.
Like he drank way too much and still was fine, and he had a good experience too.
But I just thought that was amazing that like we've had people try to mimic it and send people to the hospital, but we've got our recipe safe.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, the thing is I don't know why you would try to mimic it because it's going to cost you more to make it.
You have to source all these ingredients in there.
Yeah, so if you're not buying all the ingredients in bulk, then you're not – you're just wasting money to start with.
Yeah.
So unless you've got like $1,500 just to buy ingredients, there's no way you can compete with getting the price to – you know, within a reasonable range.
Well, that's what mystifies me.
Like can you imagine going to the store and being like, I want a Coke.
I'm going to go home and make it.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, wait, why would you think you can make this?
Like it's still, you know, a recipe and it's – you know.
Yeah, they have massive worldwide distribution and economies of scale that that's going to like add value.
You know what I mean?
I like when there's things people can't get a hold of.
So there's this place in Maine that I used to go to, Flo's Hot Dogs, right?
And she had this – it's called Hot Relish, but it's not hot.
But it's just like this like red relish that goes on hot dogs, right?
And like so these people showed up and they're like, we're going to offer you a million dollars for the recipe, right?
And she's like, no, I'm not taking it.
But so then they went ahead and like bought some and they, you know, they made their own or whatever and they never could get it right.
You know what I mean?
And I just thought that was awesome because she's like, no, this is for, you know, me and my family, you know, because their families run it now and everything, you know?
So I just – I thought that was awesome.
Yeah, that's great.
I was like, no, you can't get the recipe.
Yeah, that's funny.
Welcome to the room.
I see Web 3 Top G in the house.
I saw the croc and I was like, oh, is that Z3?
I always see Z3 rocking the croc.
But now he's got that new PFP he's made.
Yeah, welcome to the room.
You're welcome to grab a mic.
We're just hanging out.
Probably hang out for a little bit more.
We're just talking random stuff.
But there's a couple good spaces going on, so we'll probably raid them in a little bit.
There's a Puff Puff Panda space.
There's a mega space.
There's a couple different things going on right now.
But, yeah.
Right now we're just chatting about the tea and different autoimmune stuff we've been going through.
But, yeah, this tea, once we get this stuff worldwide and I can just hand out the business card with the website, that's – I can't wait for that.
That's going to be great.
This is the – this last couple months has been more of just a mean of trying to get to the economies of scale and target people to help certain people, right?
We had to get – we needed to get reviews and see how people like it and everything.
So what better way than to target people who absolutely need it because you give it to the average person and they're going to be judging it based off of taste and effects.
And if it just tastes like chamomile, like mild chamomile flavor, it doesn't really taste like anything.
And then the effects – well, if you feel healthy already, you're not going to notice that you feel 10, 15 years younger and you feel healthy again, right?
But it definitely is noticeable if you have chronic illness, like 100 percent.
Super noticeable.
And definitely that energy drink market is a top contender too because people are addicted to energy drinks.
Have you ever thought of making it a utility?
So it is a utility basically for the NFT projects we have.
I mean you get a discount by holding our NFT and you can be an ambassador by holding our NFTs.
And then we were thinking about doing it as also like a fundraiser project to like raise funds for launching.
But there's just – we want to make it as easy as possible for people, right?
So we have the NFTs already that are giving people a discount.
So that's motivation for people to get those.
And we want to make it as Web2-based and Web3-based.
So GCWB is actually making ourselves a 3D digital storefront and spatial.
And then Jazzy is making us a 2D website.
And I have also – NAR is fucked out who is going to make us a merch site and going to incorporate the website as well.
So we'll be having multiple websites, every different imaginable style.
So no matter what you're into, how you want to pay, you can find it and capitalize on it.
We're – the Dragon Juice brand, Wild Will the Dragons brand is just totally utilizing all forms of technology that we can.
Everything from 3D printers to the metaverse to – yeah.
We're making toys, making physical products, making art.
It's really amazing.
That's like the best example of a brand that's utilizing all of the Web3 tech.
Yeah.
So I just wasn't sure if you were going to try to do something with community or communities with it.
Yeah.
Like what?
Like what are you thinking?
I don't know.
I don't know if – like maybe if – I don't know.
I have to think on it, but I'm trying to think of – so I just like the idea of including the community or communities.
Maybe even not that they get something, but just kind of like how the communities could push it, you know what I mean?
Because a lot of the people in there are like true people, you know what I'm saying?
Like so I don't know.
I mean there's a lot of overlap in a lot of ways, and we are collabing.
So like the Wild Little Dragons brand is going to be in the Community of Communities book collaboration with Crypto Magazine.
So we're going to have the dragons in there, and we could have the dragons in there and maybe with their healing elixir.
Maybe they help the DeFi Space Donkeys with their healing elixir.
Yeah.
Yeah, that would be cool.
Something like that.
I'm just like the more ways that we can get it out there, you know, and I speak we.
Like I'm not even a part of the project, but I'm part of the –
Yeah, well, you are.
You're part of the DeFi Space Donkeys, and the DeFi Space Donkeys are part of the Wild Little Dragons.
So yeah, you're a part of it.
You're an affiliate.
Yeah.
And so it's like, you know, I just like – when something helps, you know, man, you like to do as much as you can with it.
You know what I mean?
Versus like, you know, just nonsense kind of things that don't do anything, you know?
Yeah, like I mean, like I love my NFTs and I love art, but like this is a real solid freaking business that is going to be a billion-dollar company in the next 10 years, if not sooner.
Well, and that's why – and someday, like we'll see what happens, but someday, like we were talking about possibly being able to do something with dogs with it, you know, would be awesome.
But either way, like I'm with you on the – kind of figuring things out, like –
Elixir Jerky?
We're doing Elixir Jerky.
Yeah, I think –
There's a couple – there's a couple – we have three companies that are making food and dog treats and stuff, so we're going to make Elixir versions of their product.
Yeah, see, and that's what I want to be able to do to add to – you know, and I can add that to my community, right?
Whether I get a discount and I do it that way or, you know, I do giveaways, right, to where it's like, hey, you know, try this for your dog and see the difference that it makes, right?
You know, because there's a lot of people that have dogs, you know, especially older dogs, and they lose energy, and it's like, you know, I got thinking, I'm like, maybe they have an autoimmune disease, you know what I mean?
Like, maybe they have, you know, so just the idea.
But also making something, you know, a physical business is important because we're not – you know, I mean, let's be honest.
We're not there with Web3 yet, right?
I mean, to where –
We're exploring the new tech and implementing it as another payment option, but right now there's not a huge market here.
Right, exactly.
We're just – we're adopting the new tech to have the opportunity for the growth in the future, but yeah, the market is not here right this second.
It's coming back, but that's the thing is we're – Web3 is just another avenue that every business needs to incorporate for payment options and for proof of authenticity going forward.
Plus, it allows for other – some really cool features, I think, moving forward, right?
But that's just another thing to add to every existing business.
That's not a business all in itself.
The tech isn't a product to sell, which for some people that are literally just selling the tech, but it's like, well, but the – what's the thing?
Yeah, well –
Yeah.
It's like, here's a ticket.
Okay, a ticket to what?
It's a ticket.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, like, the best thing that happened to me is – do you know Popular?
Yeah.
Yeah, P-A-W.
Yeah.
So, you know, we're partnered.
Yeah.
Like, but we're like – this is probably some alpha for – there's only a couple people here anyway, but we're actually going to partner.
Like, seriously, like, we're going to – basically, I'm going to become the spokesperson for Popular because he's not the greatest at talking, and anybody here can tell that I can ruin my mouth all day.
Like, so, what we have done, because the tracker – and we're going to help him get the tracker built out, and, you know, that makes that a, you know, a physical and a Web3, right?
But the thing is, is that we're going to do – and I talked to him about it – we're going to rebrand some stuff a little bit.
So, instead of calling it, like, you're going to get a coin, we're going to say prizes, right?
Like, you're going to get, like, incentives, but we're also going to target some Web2 ads on, say, YouTube, on dog channels, stuff like that, and spread out to where we can actually, you know, get people, and they don't have to be Web3, right?
So, like, we're going to have a physical item, you know, and – and call – like, that – I don't know if you've ever – well, you don't have a dog, but his app is literally amazing because you can – it tracks your steps, but also it has a – like, a place in there that has – like, you can put – each of your dogs have, like, a – like, a little portfolio of them.
You know, a dog, the name, birth date, all that stuff on it, you know?
So, you know, I think that that is going to be the step moving forward, and then as we're building out some of the other stuff and we're going towards the – you know, the Web3 game and stuff, it will build, you know?
That's the text for it, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, man.
Welcome back to the room.
I see your hand.
How you doing today, buddy?
Not bad, bro.
I'm here.
I'm listening, but it keeps freezing on me.
I'm not sure what's happening.
It keeps freezing on me for some reason.
And sorry for the Scottish – sorry for the Scottish accent, bro.
That's why I don't talk too much.
I love Scottish accent.
I love it.
Yeah, I love it.
I love the diversity.
I do, too.
You're more than welcome.
Yeah, the connection's been a little bit spotty today, but, yeah, welcome.
Welcome.
Welcome.
Welcome.
Welcome.
Well, I'm here, bro.
I'm listening.
Oh, man.
I don't know what you're all speaking about at first, so I'll just try to listen in to see
what's going on first before I start to speak to these.
Yeah, we're just – yeah, we're chatting about all kinds of stuff where me and Wolf have
been bonding over autoimmune stuff and this elixir, this tea that we're drinking.
But, yeah, we're both really into Web3.
We've both got our own Web3, our own NFT projects, and we're building together.
We got – we're, you know, all part of the community of communities here, I believe.
And, yeah, we're working on the book collaboration together as well, right, Wolf?
Yep, that's right.
I am in it finally.
Let's go.
I knew you would be.
I knew you would be.
Yeah, I'm psyched, you know, because especially, you know, the people that are in the book is
what makes the book to me, you know, and I don't think there's going to be another group
of people like this.
I mean, it will be good people, but it won't be the people that I'm super close to, you
know what I mean?
Yeah.
That's the thing is we're really, like – we can really, like, work with all our friends,
you know.
Yeah.
All the people we've been working with the last year or two that, you know, we've been
building with, we know, you know, these people are serious, they're legit, those are the
people we're trying to get involved, and then all the people we've met since then, they
have good vibes, but, I mean, for the most part, like, you've got to be an existing project
or really active in the community to be part of this collab, you know what I mean?
We're not just, like, selling it to random projects that we're not talking to.
Like, most of the projects that I've gotten in the book, I'm a holder in the project, too.
Yeah.
Yeah, me too.
And I'll tell you this, too.
You don't realize it, but there's people listening to you out here that you don't know
because you look in spaces and you're like, there's a plus, there's a plus, there's a
plus.
So it's nice to see that your community is coming along with you, you know what I mean?
So maybe Tricky's not in this space, but, you know, Doglins is, or maybe it's somebody
I don't even know, but they got the plus, right?
So it's like, hey, what's up?
You know, and you know that they're supporting you and that they're listening to you.
So not only does it make you feel good, but it makes you, it holds you accountable, right?
Because, you know, it's like, you know, I'm not letting these people down.
Like, I think my project needs to grow more and more and more because, you know, I have
two people to impress my Web3 community that I have to be here for and my dogs that I have
in, you know, that I'm rescuing.
So, and I, and I don't think if I didn't have the rescue side, I don't think my project
would be successful.
Um, that's just me.
Uh, because I would just project is like, that's what, yeah, right.
That's what I'm saying.
What I'm saying is because, because I have the passion for it, you know what I'm saying?
Like, I don't think like I could just like, I'm not one of these people that could just
make a project that is no, like just whatever, you know what I mean?
Like I had to have a project.
Yeah.
The passion is what's, is what is palpable, right?
And that's what people are attracted to, whatever your passion is for.
Now, if you were as passionate about dogs as you were about art or music or whatever other
things, then maybe your NFT project would also stand a chance.
But that reality is you've tapped into using your passion with new tech and that is a win.
That's how you, that's how you do it.
That's the right way to do it.
Yeah.
And, you know, I say this too, I don't care if I never sell another mint again, right?
Like it's not about to sell in the mints.
It's about, um, I want to be able to push my project so I can further what I'm already
doing.
But even if I never made it, then, uh, you know, I'd keep doing what I'm doing.
I just want to do more.
And I think that's the big deal, you know, like, so a mint to me is like, oh look, there's
another dog saved or there's some, another dog that gets fixed.
Just, you know, so.
Yeah.
That's the same thing with me.
Like every time I, every sale, every mint is like, okay, now I can support more people.
Yeah.
Now I can send more teeth to cancer patients.
Now I can, you know, I can, I can stay focused on what I'm doing here in web three instead
of like, you know, trying to worry about how I'm going to get food.
But yeah, that's all that, that stuff is critical.
Um, and I'll never be rich because I am helping too many people.
Well, see, see, I am rich.
I'm just not rich in.
Right.
Yeah.
Right.
I'll never be cash rich because I'm helping too many people, but I'll have the friends
and I'll have the community.
Well, and that's worth more.
Oh, it is.
Well, you can't like, you can have all the money in the world and still accomplish nothing.
But if you have all the community in the world, you can accomplish anything.
Well, and I'll tell you, uh, it's funny.
I talked to Aaron and Andy over at, um, or, uh, you know, and we were talking about some
stuff, we were on a call and they were like, they're like, do you know how many founders
respect you?
And I'm like, no, not really.
And they're like, oh yeah, well this, cause I've gotten a bunch of projects to come on there,
you know, but like, it's not because I want to push or it's because I know what they do
is good.
So I try to get people over there, but he's like, yeah, we have people all the time that
have mad respect for you.
And, uh, like, I won't even mention whose name it is, but, um, you know, I won the OG
from buying the gold.
There was a guy that was going to come buy out however many gold it took.
Um, like to beat the, whoever was in top place and they told, uh, they told this guy
that it was me that was going to win and he's like, oh no, fuck that.
He deserves it.
So to me, to me, that's amazing.
You know, if you're out here doing good stuff, people will support you.
That's bottom line.
Yeah.
You know, so just stuff like that, you know, makes it so much better to be here and the
friends that you make, you know what I mean?
Like I'm, you know, I feel like it's, it's an amazing space if you, if you use it in the
right way.
Yeah, absolutely.
If you want $50,000 for your rug project and you're an idiot.
Right.
I, I, yeah, I, I get, I'm so blown away every year when my birthday rolls around and hundreds
of people show up and thousands of dollars of NFTs are given away.
I'm just like, what is going on?
You know, like this is a dream come true.
So much love here.
Yeah, man.
What's up?
See your hand.
Yeah, bro.
Just show us ACV2 plus in your, does it need to be in your name or does it just have to
be in your bio?
Oh, well, is it better for it to be in your name?
Well, you can put it anywhere, but if you, it would be dope if you put it, if you edit
your name and you put it in front of your name, it doesn't take up really any space.
So you'll put your check mark for like three days, but it'll come back.
And then, yeah.
But yeah.
I've had the fucking blue check for like three weeks, four weeks, maybe more.
I've hardly even had it that time because I keep changing my profile picture anyway.
Yeah.
You still have all the perks of it if it disappears.
It just, yeah.
It just disappears whenever you change your photo or your name.
But, but yeah.
Yeah.
Definitely add the plus, man.
Definitely add the plus.
I'll put it in the bio.
I'll never put it in the name, but I'll put it in the name.
Yeah.
That'd be dope, man.
Very cool.
And I'll just go to you there, Wolfie.
And I just realized that you sent a follower and I'll just go to you back.
Yeah.
So the cat, is it chamomile teas or same?
So the tea we're drinking, it's a, there's, there's some chamomile in it and there's fruit.
And then there's a bunch of other stuff like, uh, licorice root, wild yam, patiaco bark, uh, all kinds of different detoxifiers.
There's, um, and then there's an energy version that has stinging nevel leaf and raspberry in it.
Uh, and then there's a, which is like a stimulant that doesn't have caffeine in it, but it's a stimulant.
And then there's a nitrogen.
Yeah.
So we're making it ourselves.
Uh, the artist friend of mine, um, spent about six years making this recipe and she was disabled with, you know, chronic illnesses as well.
And it really helped her out.
So she started giving it to people and she's helped hundreds of people.
Um, but she gave it to me a couple of months ago and now I'm like really gung ho about turning it into a, uh, an official product.
We're going to put it on the shelves.
We're getting labels and stuff and bottling it up.
So there's like 25 ingredients.
It's, it's really intense.
Like there's so many different ingredients.
Um, but it's, uh, all natural herbal.
There's no sugar.
Um, there's no, all the main allergens are, are removed and it's just, it helps you recover.
It helps your body just heal.
Uh, it makes me feel a lot younger.
Um, anyone with autoimmune diseases or, or constant pain would notice immediately how good it is.
Um, but if you like coffee or you like energy drinks, it doesn't have a crash.
It'll wake you up, but it won't, there's no crash from it.
Um, and yeah, it's, it's going to be amazing.
It'll, it should be worldwide pretty soon.
Um, um, then a link, I'll buy some.
Um, yeah, well, the website should be active soon.
We'll have a 3d website and regular website.
Um, so yeah, I don't have anything active yet and we're out of supply right now.
I should have more in the next week or two.
Um, I did just send over a batch to the UK.
So, um, I think we could actually get you a sample if we, if you wanted.
Um, we have the daytime version and the nighttime version and a sample is $30 for a bag and the
bag will make four quarts of tea.
You just take like a teaspoon or two teaspoons and you, you add it to a boiling cup of water
and then you strain it out and that, yeah, it's, so it's like a five day supply, maybe
a week supply for 30 bucks.
We'll try and solve that then.
We can solve it.
I'll take some.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You can, um, you can pay crypto or cash, um, however you want.
And, uh, yeah, and I can, I can have it sent you right to your house.
No worries, man.
Well, send me.
I'll DM you right now.
Um, do you have cash app or do you want to use crypto?
It's whatever you want.
Crypto would be easier to be favorable.
Crypto would be easier.
Okay.
So yeah, it's 30 hours per, I think we have a day and a nighttime version available.
So if you want it, you could try both.
You could just try one.
Do you have trouble sleeping?
Nah, I'm worried with it sleeping, bro.
I smoke enough.
Okay.
So then just, I texted you for a corporate sample.
Um, I'll send you my wallet address.
So you could send over like a theorem or whatever.
Is that cool?
Yeah, bro.
All right.
And then, um, yeah, just send me your address and I'll have it shipped over ASAP.
Um, the daytime one is cool.
I think if you, do you drink coffee?
Um, a lot of coffee, real coffee.
Yeah.
So I don't, I don't touch alcohol.
All right.
So this is what you, do you have a French press?
What, what, what you can do is like, if you boil up the, if you boil up the elixir and
then use that to make coffee in like a French press, then it, you make elixir coffee and
it's like, it really kicks and you don't, you won't be needing to drink as much coffee.
It's super amazing, but you could just drink the elixir separate from the coffee and you'll
just want to drink less coffee as a result anyway.
But, um, if you have a French press, that's a really dope way to make elixir coffee.
When are you looking at French press then, bro?
I'll look in here.
You might want to consider it.
It's almost worth buying a French press, bro, honestly.
I was thinking, you were saying that I was thinking, I'm probably going to buy one.
Yeah.
I'm going to, we're going to have French presses on the website when we, when we launch.
Then we're also going to have these little like tea balls.
They're like little metal balls that you put the tea in and then you put that in a cup
and you can add boiling water and then just drink it.
And then the tea stays in the little ball.
So we're going to have both options to make it easier later.
But, um, but yeah.
It'd be better to use, get them, just order them for you as help you as at the same time,
bro.
What was that?
It says that you'd be, I would be better waiting until you've got yours set up and then
I could just buy it, buy it directly for you and it will help you at the same time.
Well, yeah.
When I get the, uh, when I get the website going and like you, it's funny cause you could
try to make the tea now, but it would cost like about three or $400 to get up all the
ingredients together.
Cause it's like 25 ingredients.
So you got to find all the ingredients and buy them all separately.
It's super expensive to do it, buying them that way, but yeah, this was cool.
I'll give you a sample.
I definitely want to hear your feedback, but yeah, I would say makes it, make it with,
make it with coffee.
But if you just make it regular and, um, start off like with a half a cup and you can, you
can make it stronger if you want, but I would recommend just spacing it out, um, as much
as possible because make it last, you know what I mean?
Like you, it, it works pretty well, even when it's weak.
So if you're in a lot of pain or you're sick too, then you can make it strong to like get
through that.
It's my arm.
I got a lot of pain in my arm.
My arm was snapped in half like nine years ago.
I had a cast on it for like nine months, but, and then it still did a fix.
So I was supposed to go back and get pins, plates and pressure, but I've left it.
I can still use it.
It's fucking dense.
Yeah.
Well, I, I'll be really interested to know how it helps because it has those natural
pain relievers in it.
So it probably will help.
That's what I was listening to.
I could hear you speaking, but it kept cutting out.
So I couldn't understand the full conversation at first these were having, but with the T's
in that, I'm on that.
Yeah.
Cool.
See, one of you's worth saying your projects, your projects is linked to animals.
Who's is that?
Both of you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're both.
Wolf punks.
Wolf punks helps beagles and all kinds of stray dogs.
Helps, you know, rescue animals from shelters and find them homes.
That's cool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Helping animals that are being tested on.
Yeah.
Behind homes.
I'm like, I'm in a friend at the minute.
She's got fucking endless rabbits and cats, endless rabbits and cats.
I love, I love rabbits.
I used to, I've had nine rabbits over the years.
Yeah.
I'm like a, just a straight up animal person, you know?
Well, she's got 12 rabbits here just now.
Nice.
And she's got four of the French lop ones, the large rabbits.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
She's got four of them outside as well.
Big one.
But thanks for the animals and that.
That's a cool idea.
It's always good to have something linked to the projects.
It's for a good cause as well.
Yeah.
That'd help.
Yeah.
All the projects that I'm like really working with for the most part have a charity component.
I didn't do that on purpose, but like those are the people that I've connected with a lot more.
And I don't want to represent projects that I don't really feel comfortable representing.
But when I know that, like I've seen them, you know, put their money where their mouth is, so to speak, and actually help other people.
I don't like giving money to people unless you actually see the difference or the charities.
Now you see on Terry and I want to do that stuff.
But if I can see stuff being done with normal people actually doing stuff, you can see a difference.
Yeah.
Well, that's what I like about my project.
I'm not even making money yet, and we're already doing Rescue.
I've been doing it since 2017.
So, yeah, it's definitely nice for people to pick up on that.
Yeah.
And if you look at my wallet, how many NFTs I've bought, how many NFTs I've sent to people, and you look at what my trading versus what my trading volume is on my NFTs, I obviously give way, way, way more.
Honestly, I don't have a project, I just buy NFTs, I've got 1,000 plus NFTs, and I end up giving them away more than I do sell them.
I've got about 1,300 NFTs in my wallet that I've bought from supporting other people, you know.
Oh, yeah, I was going to tell you, too, if you jump in my Discord, and you want to check it out, you can look around.
But you can get a whitelist and 1,000 tokens towards you can win other NFTs and stuff.
We have a store.
So if you just want to look at it, see what it's about, you know, you're more than welcome to.
You can hang out there, you don't have to be a, you don't have to be a holder.
I mean, of course, we love people that support us, but at the same time, you know, we just like good people being around our community, so.
I have this really, like, funny idea, which I don't, I kind of like, but I also don't like, because part of me wants to diamond hand everything and keep it for myself.
But also, I have a bunch of NFTs, so I could technically make a mint promotion for my collection.
You would have, like, a one in three shot of winning an NFT when you buy my NFT, and then you would get an NFT that I've invested in over the last two years.
But, like, you have a 5% chance that it's going to be, like, worth less than a dollar.
But you've got, like, a 5% chance it's worth over, like, 50.
And, you know, most of them are worth between 5 and 50.
Right.
So, like, that's a lot of assets.
Like, 1,300 NFTs to send out would be a lot of assets.
Like, I would need a lot of money just in gas just to send out all that shit.
But that would be really cool to, like, you know, bring, give, to sell my, you know, my collection out and then reward my community with all these NFTs that I've collected over the last couple years.
It would be really, really cool.
Yeah.
And then to do that right before the bull run so then you could sell these NFTs during the bull run and actually, you know, make decent money.
Probably make more than you spent on the mint.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, you know what I like about the mint?
My favorite part is I'm so – like, I'm kind of over this we're not going to reveal until we sell out thing, right?
But I loved how with your NFT, I got to pick the one I wanted, and I really love it.
You know what I'm saying?
I kind of like that.
Yeah.
I've tried to do things very different with my collection for a bunch of different reasons.
But, yeah, I think it is kind of funny to have, like, the hype and the wild card factor, right?
Yeah, I do too.
But at the same time, like, sometimes it's nice, you know?
Yeah.
No, I mean, I think it's funny, like, as in, like, sometimes it's beneficial, but sometimes it isn't, right?
Like, you really don't know what you're going to get.
So sometimes it's going to encourage more secondary sales by doing that, right?
Because people aren't going to have necessarily get the one they wanted, right?
Or they're going to get one that's so much better than what they thought they were going to get.
They're going to want to sell it just to make some profit sometimes, right?
So, like, yeah, you have different, I don't know, different ways that it goes.
But, like, also, I feel like, so it's good to encourage secondary sales, right?
It is good for that aspect.
But right now, like, these days, a lot of times, you know, royalties aren't guaranteed for some platforms.
Right.
Those secondary sales aren't necessarily beneficial to the collection.
And, like, my NFT, for example, like, you buy my NFT because you have already gotten the value from me, probably.
Right, right, exactly.
But you buy the NFT because you want to be part of the club and get part of the membership benefits.
And you don't know what those are.
Those aren't written down.
I just have a really good track record of providing a lot more value than people put in, right?
Yeah.
But that's my whole, that's, like, how it's, I'm not a security.
I'm not, you know, there's no guaranteed APY with my thing.
I'm not guaranteeing anything.
I just show up every day and try to add dice.
Well, and that's why I've gone the way I am with my thing.
Like I said, I, you know, I'm going to have staking, right?
But my staking is for a coin that has no money.
So you're, you're just using it as a thing for game advancements.
It's just like collecting coins in Mario, right?
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, you're not going to sell the coin.
You know what I mean?
So you're just going to, you know, like, I will give you something for the coin.
Right.
But I'm not going to, like, you know, you can trade it in on things just like on, you
know, a video game where you can.
Like tickets for a, like tickets for a arcade.
Yeah, exactly, right?
You get a random amount out of the machine and you can trade them in for stuff, but you
don't, you don't, you're not, you're not doing it for the, for the ticket return.
You're doing it for the game.
You're doing it for the involvement.
Yeah, right.
But, you know, at the same time, you're not, you know, security, even though I think the
whole security commodity thing is bullshit anyway.
But it is, it's just a really funny way of regulation.
But I mean, also bottom line is they've made it to protect consumers.
You know, I know, I know.
That's what, but what I'm saying is like where it's bullshit is like the, the lines
between it are so blurred nowadays.
That's, that's the thing that's bullshit.
Like, yeah, I'm all about protecting consumers.
Like I want, like I said, my community is what's important to me.
Right.
But it's basically like you have to be educated on how to file the paperwork.
And that's basically all it comes down to for everything in this world.
Yeah, exactly.
I mean, like.
It's stupid.
It's all like stupid.
It's all weird tricks and hoops in order to jump through in order to get to do anything
in the world.
Well, you know, I paid, I paid to have my LLC done.
Right.
And everybody's like, I can do it for you.
I can do it for you.
And I'm like, yeah, but if you don't do something right, how do I hold you accountable?
Right.
Like if they don't do something right, at least I have some recourse of holding something
accountable.
You know what I mean?
And I'm not filling it out, you know?
And I, and I know people are like, oh, it's easy.
And I'm like, okay, that's fine.
But you know.
Are they guaranteed?
You're paying for the guarantee to know that it was done right.
And to have somebody that you can go to that, that you can, that you can hold accountable
slash get some customer service.
Right.
Especially because some of the stuff that we're dealing with when it comes to businesses
and web three, but when you have your own business in general, um, you're in charge
and you're responsible.
You have to find, you have to, it's your, uh, your responsibility to bring in the right
people and to do your due diligence.
So yeah, if you don't know something, bring an expert, um, it's usually worth it for the
time savings alone.
Not to mention that guarantee and just a little extra stability.
Shout out to Rev.
I see Rev in the house and 50 Cal.
You guys are more than welcome to grab a mic.
Come on up.
I know we've got, uh, we're going to be doing some cool interviews and some stuff coming
up with 50 Cal, I believe.
Oh, you know who I did an interview with or not an interview with AMA, uh, Mochi.
Oh yeah.
It went really good.
It was really cool.
It was so laid back and she was just like, they were asking questions.
I didn't even like think of, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Is it recorded?
Uh, yeah.
She's supposed to be putting it out pretty soon.
I just sent her some logos and some, um, the track, the opening track for it, you know?
Nice.
Yeah.
But the crazy thing was, is we recorded for like, I don't know, maybe an hour and then
we ended up talking for another two hours.
Nice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Me, Mochi and her, um, co-host, you know, and it was just a good time.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Hey, speaking of good time.
What's up?
That revolution.
Hey, how we doing, bro?
Uh, managed to jump in.
Uh, yeah.
Sorry about that.
My audio was playing up.
It's been doing loads of that lately.
Oh yeah.
Signal in the UK at the minute.
It's not great.
Yeah.
It's been, it's all over the place.
People are jumping around.
They're getting kicked in and out, but you know, Hey, look, we got another one.
We got another person to add the plus.
He's one of us.
He's one of the, he's already been in the community, communities chat, but, and he's
been one of us for a while, but he, and he had the plus in his bio, but he, he just
added it to his name.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Welcome to the family, my friend.
Although you were already family, but still, thank you for representing.
Appreciate it.
Yeah.
It's pretty cool.
It's awesome.
See those pluses in the room.
Yeah.
Once you have the plus two, then you kind of realize like, it's like a new car.
You're like, wow, they got one of two.
Yeah.
Hey, one of us, one of us.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's funny.
But yeah, good stuff, man.
And he's going to get some, he's going to try some tea too.
He's going to, we got some samples in the UK right now too.
So we're going to be sending him some tea.
Oh, nice.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey cats.
What's up, brother?
Hey, I was wondering, do you think somebody in the community would be open-minded to help
me with my project?
I'm sure.
What do you need done?
Like, I have no community at all.
Yeah.
And I'm not a good talker besides the educational stuff.
Yeah.
And I really need to build traction.
Yeah.
Because I do have something really, really good, but I need people to know about it.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, posting, posting your posts in the community chat is good.
We can, we can talk to about like, like specific pin posts and, and stuff, some content that
would be good to help grow your account and build like some community building tactics
too.
That'd be nice.
There's lots of good.
Yeah.
I mean, like definitely like.
So those things I'm not good at.
Yeah.
We're going to, we're going to close this space down in a little bit here.
We've already kind of gone over, but definitely join me next time.
And then we can spend more time like focusing on some community building tactics and, but
there's lots of great people in the community that, you know, that they can, you know, their
founders, they can kind of reach out to their people and, you know, collaborate.
You got to just, we got to do some more rooms, some more spaces.
And if you collaborate with some founders to bring in their communities, to talk about,
you know, what they're doing and, and do some spaces, some group spaces, uh, I jump
into a lot of those spaces too.
So we can follow, you know, you can follow me around and I can bring you up on their
stages, um, in some of the larger rooms that don't know you, but yeah, it's just a matter
of being out there, man.
It's just a matter of persistence and, and showing up.
Um, you know, uh, you're, I know you're on the go most of the time.
Um, so like just making good pin posts and good tweets is really what's where you're
going to shine.
Um, and then trying to get in a quiet place every now and then, so you can join a space,
but yeah, I mean, I can help present stuff for you too and share it in rooms, you know?
Um, send me, I can't get back to Twitter because if I do, I'm on my other account and if I flip
back, it'll kick me down.
Um, so send me a message on, uh, Twitter.
Um, and I got some pointers that I'll, uh, uh, tell you some different stuff.
Um, try to help you out too.
Yeah.
There's lots of good people in the community to help.
Whatever Rev, I know Rev's got some pointers.
Yeah, I was just going to say, Katz, I think you underestimate how good you are as a speaker
actually, because, you know, even when you was in the space we featured you, I thought
you conducted yourself really well, um, I thought he was a great speaker.
You explained everything in an easy way to understand.
Um, yeah, growing a community is difficult.
Well, here's what I, what I mean when I'm not a good speaker, like, I'm just one person.
When I see other projects, they have like a second and a third, if that makes sense.
I do everything myself.
I am everything.
Yeah, a lot of the, I mean, a lot of the bigger projects that are selling stuff out
there, they definitely have a larger team and they're, and they're more there, you have
to be active, right?
Like you have to have almost one of your team members has got to be on in a space or like
online at all times, basically.
Yeah.
For like most of these projects, um, in order to gain the right amount of traction.
Right.
But it all depends on like what exactly you're trying to do.
Like the idea of just selling out your collection immediately, um, to fund your project is,
is great, but not necessary in all, in all situations.
Right.
Like it's great to be able to just do a short push, get the money you need and go forward.
But, uh, depending on what your, your business is based off of and stuff too, like for example,
if I sold my collection out, that wouldn't be great because all of a sudden I would, I
would have all these new people that I didn't know.
Right.
I need to be able to help them all and add value to them all.
I need to like, I need, it needs to kind of go a little bit slower than that.
It can't just be, uh, all of a sudden I'm swamped and busy.
Right.
Well, with me, I have to sell at least half of my collection.
Right.
So then we need to focus on, um, getting your, getting your account to the right amount,
the right size, uh, and or slash whitelist to the right size.
So we can, we can at least sell out half of it when you, when you go live.
Right.
So that means I always say like maybe like one to, one to 3% of your followers are going
to buy your NFT depending on pricing and whatnot.
Um, quantity and pricing is a big thing, but yes, you need a lot, you need a lot more followers
than you think.
Um, but, um, yeah, people within the community and all our founders and we put them all together
in the room and get them all to talk.
You could very quickly have a, a nice size community.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I actually have like the utility for everything.
It just needs the actual funding.
Yeah.
I think, I think, you know, you need to try and, um, get a team as well.
I think that's, that's really important, which I know you probably, you probably think already.
And I'm sure there's people out there that probably need your services and there may be
people out there whose services that you need that you could sort of collaborate with
and build a team with.
So you can sort of, you know, have more people supporting you.
Cause I think that's one of the most effective things in, in like the community.
Communities are the people who, um, support each other's ecosystems and then, you know,
some that also collaborate with each other.
So they sort of have like a, a team outside of what it is they're building, but they, they cooperate
in regards of, you know, transacting in services and stuff.
Yeah.
Cause I know you're not, you're short on cash.
So you definitely need to get like a service exchange issue or like if you can give equity
to people, then you can bring in like a solid team of some people who are good at speaking
and holding spaces.
Um, and that would probably be, yeah, that would, I would recommend that if you can get
like two or three people who, um, who vibe with you, uh, and also like the project and
we'll settle for equity because a lot of people, um, won't, but we know a lot of good people
in the community.
So I feel like there's enough people there that you have options.
Um, yeah, just a matter of reaching out, um, you know, go, I would say like you go in,
you put yourself in the community communities chat and you look at also who will, who's
active in there.
You share some of their posts, you, you know, make sure you're following each other, um,
open up a DM maybe, or just post on their posts.
Like, you know, a little bit, you just start the support, get support, you know what I
mean?
And see who you vibe with, see if anything, and if anything clicks or if there's any projects
that seem very similar to yours or that your product, your services would go well to help
them.
Those are the, those are possible alliances you need to like focus on.
Right.
Yeah.
You know, the other thing that I would say is if you can talk about your project, right?
Like you, uh, what, this is just personally what I did now I can talk on a space that's
full of people, 300 people now.
Right.
But it's a little harder when you're beginning.
So, um, I focused on some smaller spaces.
Uh, I want to say probably, um, the community of communities was the first large space that
I got in.
Um, at first I started out, I got on slices Sunday.
Which is slice of pies.
And they only have like five or six different people at a time.
Uh, I almost, I also joined the meta community and they usually have like smaller spaces.
Um, I don't know if they're doing spaces now or not, but I would focus on doing smaller
spaces.
I would also say, if you can talk about your project, um, everybody always loves to hear
from founders.
So what I would work on is trying to find some moderators, stuff like that, build your
community from that side.
That's, that's what I'm doing.
I have some moderators right now and I just brought on, uh, Pat from card rips.
He's going to be a project manager.
You can offer them, you know, stuff like that.
Um, and then I would a hundred percent, uh, go to the community of communities, reach out
to the people.
Um, as you can see, everybody in here has a plus.
Um, and I'm gonna tell you this, I was in kind of a messed up situation with my money
at the moment because I'm building my shit out of my pocket and, uh, you know, the book
was running out of spaces and I wanted to make sure that I was in the book, uh, doglins
helped me out.
And so when I say that the community of communities are, um, really there for you, they are.
So they'll help to point out your positives, your negatives, uh, you know, what you should
focus on, kind of change your ideas.
Um, but like I say, for me, if I'm in a space and a shiller comes in and it's not the founder,
I don't listen.
Now that's just me, but I, I feel the passion from the founder.
So that's my advice, but you know, that's, you know, everybody's different, but that's what
I say.
Um, yeah, you need, you need someone who can be a team member and help come like carry
a conversation about the project, because if you go in and you have a, just a, and you
have a show and you're not really freaking charismatic and spot on with your timing, um,
it doesn't go very well.
Right.
Um, but also I have like a tactic to, when I introduced myself to do spaces.
So first time it's really just saying hi, you know what I mean?
And supporting the room, literally, I'm not talking about myself.
Um, I might mention the community communities, um, or another project that I think is cool.
Um, that's relevant to the topic, but the, it's really just saying hi, same thing with
the first and second time.
Like even the second time, probably the same thing.
I'll talk about the community communities, right?
Uh, third time I'm talking about my own stuff, talk about art.
That's cool.
Um, maybe go a little bit more into depth and then talk about maybe going into a more
detailed, you know, analysis of what I'm doing, you know, but really just showing up
and having conversations, um, and trying to like, if you want to know, mentioning your
project, because you have a similarity with another project is cool.
Um, but not like in a full shill, right.
But like a short, like, Oh yeah, I'm doing something like that with my project where we do
this, this, this, and this, but maybe we should clap.
That'd be, that'd be cool.
You know?
And then leave it at that.
Um, yeah, I don't know.
Then getting into, then getting into these, some of these spaces where there's shill spaces.
It's like, it's all about having like your two minute elevator pitch down, like just
nailed.
Right.
And then those, you can easily get lost in the weeds, you know, and that's more about
like how big the room is, how much everyone wants to spend money, which is not a whole
lot right in the second.
So yeah, you're, you're better off just saying hi in most of these places, to be honest.
Well, then you, I think I'm the same way.
Like, I'm not afraid of talking in big rooms.
I've been in rooms of thousands of people and like my other groups.
That's not an issue.
I hate talking about myself.
I really do.
Yeah.
But that's what I'm saying with the smaller places, right?
You're the reason that it helped me.
And this, you know, it could be me.
Like it wasn't the, I'm afraid to talk in front of people.
What I'm saying is, is like, you will get better because like when you go on the slice
of pie, they ask questions, right?
They, they have input.
That's the reason that I like the smaller spaces.
You know, I can jump on a mega space.
I mean, my kind of outlandish thing is everybody knows I talk about dogs and I have this weird
fucked up raspy voice.
So, you know, I have this like, and I, and I won't shut up.
You know what I mean?
I, I like, I make sure that I'm heard.
Right.
But, um, and I get what you're saying and not talking about yourself, but remember when
you talk about your NFT project, you're not talking about yourself.
You're talking about your project, your community, what you got to get done.
If it was just about you, you'd be up there saying, you know, about your stuff.
Um, so that's a good thing.
Also, if you're tricky Buddha, you've got the, uh, defy space donkey call that you get
to throw out.
And then everybody's like, Oh, I know this guy.
Um, but like I say, um, you know, for me, um, you know, my project is my life.
I don't change my PFP.
It is my wolf head.
It will be my wolf head.
And when I get in there, um, you know, I don't talk about myself.
Uh, dude, I talk about what we're doing for the community, what we're doing.
For the projects.
And also I'm going to tell you this too.
This is the best thing you can do.
Talk about other people's projects.
I don't know how many times I'm in a space and I say, Hey, yeah, dude, I love Nubis.
He helped me coming up here.
Hey, tricky Buddha.
Yeah.
You know, let's get him up here in the space because, you know, he's always supporting.
He's a legend.
Like that little stuff right there makes a big difference, you know?
Uh, so, and then yet again, you're not talking about yourself.
You're talking to somebody else.
So, um, you know, that's, that's just my idea.
Um, also I think, you know, uh, tweets can be good, you know, just like just tweets.
GM tweets are good.
They, they fucking climb in the, the, um, algorithm, you know, but you know, you just got to remember
to do them.
Um, and also, like I said, uh, just, you know, kind of don't be worried about what you're
saying.
Like, as far as like, um, I got to get in here and talk and I got to get members.
I got to get, you know, and then also don't do in my, and this is my opinion.
Don't do just a bunch of giveaways on NFTs.
I'm not saying you can't do some, but you know, it's like after a while you get known
as, Oh, this guy's going to give NFTs.
I'm going to go listen to him.
That's my opinion.
I don't give away NFTs.
I give away discord coin that you can earn to get NFTs.
So you got to do a little bit of work to it.
And that seems to work better for me.
Um, but you know, everybody's, you know, does things certain ways.
Um, get some, get some automatic rumble set up in your discord.
Like I do, uh, a daily and a weekly that helps, you know, just little stuff like that
helps.
Yeah.
Consistent.
Yeah.
I need somebody to help me with my discord.
Um, well, Hey, we got, we got doglins right here.
I was just going to say, yeah, doglins is really good at, um, you can set up all that
stuff.
Um, and like I said, you can reach out to me if you've got any questions about stuff,
you know, I'm always around.
Um, and I can, cause I asked somebody that I know and there's been over a month and
they haven't touched and I'm like, bro, doglins is he'll, he'll get it done.
He's, he's like, and that's what you'll find out if you join the community of
communities.
I recommend getting, um, the telegram group, getting in on the telegram group of
the community of the communities.
Um, you know, that's just my opinion.
Uh, I don't even really mess with telegram except for, uh, the community
communities.
That's all I pretty much use it for.
Uh, but it's good.
You get a lot of good information.
Uh, you'll find out if there's people in there, if you need help, uh, like, um, meta
builders, dude, one of the most, uh, one of the best developer slash informational
people that I know.
Uh, a lot of people that develop and stuff, they don't talk about it.
He'll tell you what he's got going on, what he's doing, what he could do for you.
He'll jump on a call with you.
I mean, you know, I just, I don't know.
I really like him personally, but also from a business standpoint and the community of
communities is a place where you can find all that stuff.
Yeah.
You're in the, he's in the community communities chat.
I believe you're in the telegram and everything too, right?
Are you on the telegram?
I know you're in the, uh, the Twitter, um, chat.
The telegram.
I think I'm in the discord also.
I think.
Yeah, I would recommend the telegram.
Everyone's really active in the telegram.
Um, that's the thing.
You have to have sent me a link for that one.
All right.
Yeah.
Um, can you do that?
I am in the dragons one.
Yeah.
Man, we'll shoot that over to you in a heartbeat.
Um, yeah, definitely.
Welcome to join there.
Um, lots of good, lots of good founders, lots of good people in there.
Uh, you know, you can always reach out and ask questions.
There's usually someone there to, to answer stuff.
Um, and then you can tag, you know, obviously feel free to tag me or tag, you know, certain
people and you have specific questions, but, but yeah, man, that there's, there's so many
great people in the community to reach out to.
Um, like I said, and you can always come here and we can talk about whatever, you know, I'm
always here Monday and Wednesday to, uh, to cut things up and, and help people out.
So, yeah, well, I'll say this and, and maybe this is just me.
I look at the, um, community communities, Twitter group, um, more of a good place to
find spaces.
Um, you know what I mean?
Like that's where a lot of people post their space and stuff.
And don't get me wrong.
There's people talking in there, but, um, I feel like, you know, I don't know, we were
talking about the book the other day and I think there was like two posts in the Twitter.
And then there was like 500 on the, um, telegram and it was all useful information
talking about like, you know, where it's going and everything.
So I think you get more information from the telegram.
That's just my opinion.
Yeah.
That's definitely where we're like primarily active and there's a really good, uh, the
voice quality is decent and there's no, like, it seems to be no lag on that.
And it just seems to be where there's a lot of good founders.
Can you hear me?
Yay.
Hey, I couldn't talk.
I was trying to talk the whole time.
Well, we hear you.
We hear you now.
Welcome to the stage.
I shared up a little, I shared up your pin posts.
Everyone go up there and give up.
There's a bunch of different posts up there.
You should get all those posts of love.
Pretty cool.
Now I was just wondering, I can't see who the speaker was that wanted help with the
discord.
Cats.
Cats.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Catch down here.
Okay.
I saw, uh, I saw, oh, is it Boz?
Welcome.
Welcome up, Boz.
How's it going, buddy?
I'll tell you.
Yeah.
Like I asked my guy, not even that hard.
Like I asked him for two things.
For the voice channels to pop up, you know, whenever somebody wants to make a voice channel
instead of having them, you know, pre-made and then for me to have a channel for people
to like, um, connect their wallet whenever I make the NFT so they could have access to
certain things.
That's it.
That was a whole change.
No problem.
I can do it now in 15 minutes if you want.
Yeah.
Yeah.
See, he'll hook you up.
That was awesome, man.
Yeah.
Hey.
Lots of helpful people here.
Do you use Collabland or Valcom?
Collabland.
I can use both.
It doesn't matter.
Which is better?
Let me ask that.
I used to.
I do Collabland.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Because I just see it in some places and I just wondered.
To be fair, I have never, never used it in my own Discord.
Yeah.
Somebody put it in there and was wanted to.
I have, I have both.
Right.
Because he was going to switch over and then, then Collabland, once they came out with
the new dashboard that they have, to me, it's easy.
But, you know, somebody said the only thing with Valcom is it doesn't, like, go into your
wallet.
And I'm like, well, I don't think Collabland does either.
Right?
They just check your wallet for the NFT they're looking for.
That's what they do.
Yeah.
I thought so.
It's a read-only permission.
Yeah.
It's a read-only.
So, yeah.
So, okay.
Cool.
Yeah.
I mean, so, that's what, I'm going to go back.
I'm going to pull Valcom out of there and go back to, you know, because Valcom.
That's a classic.
I'm going to DM Cass.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I might, I might, Doglin, I might have a couple things I want you to look at, too, but
not right now.
Yeah.
Everyone send Doglins an NFT and he'll help you with whatever you need.
I'm going to send Doglin.
That's the other thing I was going to tell you.
Can you open a ticket?
Are you?
I got you a fantasy tanker.
Are you in my Discord, Doglins?
Yes, of course I am.
Can you open a ticket?
Yeah.
Drop your, of course I can.
Drop your ETH address.
Doglins.eth.
Doglins.eth?
Okay, cool.
Cool.
I need to get you.
There you go.
I want to, to say thank you, I want to, I got some, something I want to give you, so.
Let's go.
I know I don't have to, but that's the thing, it's, it's, you know, I've supported you before,
I own a Doglins, you know what I mean?
I, I, I love.
That's exactly, you're part of the Doglin community as well.
That's the community of communities.
Yes, and the, I'm probably the DeFi Space Donkeys community.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, we're all together.
Yeah, exactly.
That's the way I look at it.
And, here's the thing.
All one.
Instead of giving away NFTs to random people, you get, you give it to people that are going
to be diamond hands, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
I've never given an NFT away.
I've never given stray dogs away.
Yeah, no.
You have to earn a donkey or pay for a donkey.
If people, I send people stuff all the time and they're like, oh, I thought I won a donkey.
Damn it.
I'm like, no, no, no, no, no.
That's, that's prime real estate right there.
I only, I just wanted to say what's up real quick.
I see your, I see your hand.
Welcome to the stage real quick.
I just want to acknowledge the people who joined the room.
Thank you for joining.
How's it going, Bob?
Hey, guys.
I just, I just didn't want to interrupt.
I can see the healthy conversation between Dogman and Wolf.
And I didn't want to interrupt.
I just want to say good, good on you guys.
Just giving some space for the people, you know, just people, regular people who are not
part of the project, give opportunity.
It's giving someone else like a time and a moment, you know, going to help you to feel
good because helping others, you're going to help yourself.
Trust me, because it's going to pay off sooner or later.
You know, be, look after people, try to do, imagine sometimes people send me, let's ask
me to retreat something.
And I always just want to make sure that something is, it's not a scam or something before I share,
but I always share, it means nothing to me, it's just press the button to highlight
or bookmark.
Like even I, I'm, I'm, like I said, to be honest, I'm not, why I joined the space because
first I joined and I listened to what's all about, what people talk, then before I start
talking and want to make sure I'm on the same page and what, like I said, I'm not a fan
of the NFTs, but I always support the people, you know, from all aspects of the crypto world,
no matter where they're coming from, I always try to, you know, if I don't buy, at least
interact with them or share with their content or spreading the word or whatever it is, on
the end of the day, you know, means, it can mean nothing to me, but can mean someone else,
everything.
So on the end of the day, it's like, we're only responsible for our actions.
What we do, we do also all the times trying to give it the airdrops, giveaways on the future.
We're planning to do, like, with our project, we're doing charity.
On the end of the day, we have, generally, I have everything.
I have food, I have roof, I have car, take me to front of me, I have a healthy family.
On the end of the day, trying to also make something for community, especially these days
when you have a lot of rug pull projects where the people get being scammed.
They, you know, like Wolf says, you're trying to give someone, like, a diamond hand.
There's people who, who's ten bucks, he's dreaming about making some and someone take
that, imagine in third world country, ten bucks, it means a lot.
And someone steal their money.
It's really sad.
And I feel like that type of people, I would start punching and, like, really.
Well, it's tough, right?
Because, like, I want to help everyone, too, right?
Like, I really want to give people a chance.
You can, like I said, you can do your best and for the God to live the rest.
And at the end of the day, you can take the horse to the water, but you can't make it free.
Yeah, if you give away all your NFTs and they just get floored, then all your, you might
as well have just sent them money.
Because you're not, you're not building your community in the end that you wanted to anyway.
And then, yeah.
And you just have a couple of flippers.
Yeah, no, no.
Imagine with our project, our project is growing.
We also give, and there are some people sending messages, oh, when is the next airdrop?
Brother, first, we sometimes give our money out of our pocket, but sometimes we need to
make the money to give them money.
We don't mind to give them money, but you can't, just, you can't, like, it's like donating
blood.
You can't just, you know, you need to regenerate the blood.
You need some of it, yeah.
It might, it doesn't work like that.
I don't know, they don't, sometimes people are so greedy.
Some people are grateful, you know, whatever it is.
Some of these people will, will take all your blood.
No, brother, brother, fucking there.
Some of them like fucking mosquitoes, brother, then it's never enough.
Yeah, no, we definitely gotta, you gotta be careful.
You can't, you can't give it all away.
You know, it's good to help people, but when it comes to building your community and giving
away NFTs, I have two classes of NFTs, my membership NFTs, which people can buy to support
or become a part of the club, and then there's other ones, which are more art or for giveaways,
right, those, but they're different for sure.
I see your hand, Rev, you don't need to raise your hand, you're the co-host, you just speak
up, you just mute everybody and talk.
But you do have to unmute yourself to talk.
I was just like, just chatting away.
You know, nice and tricky, I appreciate what you just said then, but I just wanted to thank
Boz as well for just recognising people, trying to help people, you know, clearly you're one
of those people as well, and fair play too for that, you know, and big respect for, you
know, you may not, you may not vibe with the NFT space, but you still support it, but it
does run a lot deeper than a lot of people realise, you know, I know that a lot of people
see the PFP side of the NFT space, but it's so much deeper than you realise when you look
into the tech of how it can be utilised.
And there are people utilising, you know, the deeper inner workings of how it can be, how
it can be used, you know, because there's people that work in Web3 and get paid through
the blockchain, but also prove what work they did via an NFT.
So people use it as part of their resume to prove that they did a good job and that they
were paid for that job.
So there is a deeper meaning to NFT.
Yeah, I actually spend all, all the last 10 years has been basically explaining how people
can use cryptocurrency and this new tech to further everything.
And when NFTs came out, I took, took advantage of that opportunity to do exactly that.
I made an NFT membership for my services.
So that's what, that's what the DeFi space donkeys is, is a way for people to actually, you
get a discount on my hourly rate, but you can actually use it to pay for my services.
And it's just a receipt on the blockchain.
Also, it's kind of like a shout out to those PFP collections, right?
Like, first of all, we're facing the other direction.
Obviously, it's a donkey.
We're not taking things too seriously.
And then I made the backgrounds really cool because they were lacking in the backgrounds
like two years ago.
If you look at that, all the PFPs from like two years ago.
Yeah, we, we totally changed how the graphics are in the backgrounds and people are starting
to catch on.
People are starting to make them cooler looking.
But the PFPs are almost a joke.
And I feel like they are kind of a joke, right?
But if you can, you can utilize that and that PFP or that NF, that NFT technology to represent
anything, it could be real estate, it could be services, it could be any kind of thing
you want to prove an asset or prove a service on the blockchain, right?
It's just a way of tracking things in my mind.
It's a new form of accounting that is decentralized, cheap, effective.
Well, maybe not if it's on Ethereum.
But, you know, other than that, it's, you know, it's getting better.
It's getting, it's getting more efficient.
Yeah, I'm just going to say that as well.
If you're moving the hands.
Yeah, definitely.
And that's not to devalue the PFP side of it.
You know, it is a very fun, fun way to do it.
And it's also, you know, like you said, there's many ways you can utilize it and for the collectible
side of it.
And as for the membership thing as well, you know, massive shout out to Dogvins as well
for, you know, for being one of the first projects I saw utilized the club aspect of
an NFT because that does really change the whole dynamics, doesn't it, bro?
You know, the way that people then utilize your ecosystem, it's a lot different to just
a PFP project then.
Yeah, exactly.
I mean, the PFP projects have been more like brands or like, kind of like, what is it?
When you have like a turnkey solution, right?
You're just, you're buying just the representation of that product, right?
So like, if you want to start a new brand and have it representative with that art, then
you can have instant notability, notoriety, right?
It's kind of like when you buy a franchise, that's the word.
When you buy like a, you know, like a, like a McDonald's, right?
You set it up because, well, it's an easy turnkey solution and you have instant marketing,
you have instant brand recognition, you know, people aren't going to ask what, what
restaurant is that?
What do they serve?
They know exactly what they get when they go there, you know?
I see your hands up.
Who was first?
What's up?
Cass was first.
There you go.
How's it going, Cass?
So I have a question.
Mm-hmm.
For my first collection, I'm trying to make it into a staking that has a referral system.
That's not a security, right?
It depends on how you stake it.
It depends on what you pay for and what you guarantee with the staking.
Um, so now if you, like, let's say you, you stake for tickets and then the tickets are
redeemed for a perk later.
That's not a guaranteed APY?
No, no.
Well, I want them to stake it, and for them to stake it, they get a referral code.
Right.
A referral bonus, you said?
A referral code that they can use.
Oh, a referral code.
Gotcha.
Yeah, like an affiliate thing?
Like an affiliate code.
Yeah.
I think that would be, I think that would be fine.
Don't, you don't, I would, I wouldn't even use the word stake because you don't need to.
And that, and that's, and that, you're, basically the, the NFT token gates the ability to have
a referral program.
That's fine.
There's no one wrong with that.
Token gate.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's token gated, token gated referral access through your NFT.
Just secure it on the blockchain.
That's, yeah.
Totally.
Okay.
Just a matter of wording, I think.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wolf?
So, I was going to say, uh, you know the other thing about the community of communities?
Uh, I was on a space, this was about a month ago.
I'm not going to say who it was just because I don't want to talk bad about anybody, but,
um, there was somebody and they were talking and it sounded kind of interesting.
And I was like, yeah, you should reach out to the community of communities.
Right.
And they're like, oh yeah, I talked to them.
Um, they never got back to me.
Right.
So do you know what I did?
Um, I instantly lost any kind of interest in that project because I feel like there's
probably a reason that the community of communities didn't get back to them.
So it's also a way, in my opinion, to kind of safeguard yourself.
Um, and I'm wondering, did it slip through the fingers or who we're talking to?
I want to care.
I'm curious.
I can't, I can't reveal the name.
I'll DM you later.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I just want to mention quickly, uh, there, I've been also investing in a, uh, in some projects
and, uh, uh, where a project had a lot of potential and everything, but the problem, most of the
projects fail, uh, because they have a greedy devs and, uh, uh, who try, uh, just, uh, me,
me, us, us.
And that, you know, you need to also, uh, learn how to give something to community.
You can't just be, uh, expect, uh, because, uh, if you give, uh, you can expect something
in turn, if you don't give, don't expect anything in turn.
So you need to plant a seed to, to harvest the, the, something when the season comes.
Yeah.
And like, and there are lots of good people here, but there's lots of, there are lots
of people who will, will be greedy and run their projects in the ground because they
suck it dry.
People, we don't give a fuck about the, the, the greedy motherfuckers.
So I just don't focus on them.
I always focus.
I'm, uh, uh, because I'm, like I said, I met a lot of shit, but I also met a lot of
good guys and, uh, I don't even think about the shit.
I always try to focus only on good people.
So, you know, on end of the day, uh, trust me, uh, you know, being nice in a life, shit
can happen, but it can happen more often if you're a piece of shit.
So that's, uh, yeah, I saw that in your bio.
I like it.
Uh, it's true.
I mean, that thing is karma, whether you believe in karma or not, karmic law, there's
that, I think there's just the probability, the mathematical probability kind of proves
that karma exists because if you mathematically go around and you're good to everybody, then
you're going to get a lot of good shit thrown back.
100% because I never works the other way too.
Yeah.
I always try to work on myself, you know, uh, I work on myself 24, seven, 365 days.
I always work, uh, instead of trying to find the mistakes and a bad, uh, like, uh, weakness
of the others, I try to try to find out my weakness and my mistakes, correct myself instead
of trying to correct others.
Uh, because the usually problem is people always try to find the mistakes in others instead
of, uh, trying to correct themselves.
Uh, I think you are going to be on the right path once you start to think that way and, uh,
life's going to be much easier.
I mean, when you play a video game and you fall into the lava and it kills you, we don't
say, well, fuck this lava.
I mean, yeah, you do, but like, you don't, it's not the lava, it's just learn to adapt
and you, you know what I mean?
You don't, so I look at everyone and their own and their opinions and their emotions is
just another factors in this game of life.
Uh, you need to work with them that you can't, you know, they exist.
It's just the way it is.
It's, it's, I like to say it's circle of life, brother.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And a little bit of empathy, a little bit of compassion.
100%.
I think, I still see your hand, Wolf, but it never went down.
I'm, I'm, I'm generally bouncer, you know, uh, brother, I'm a tough motherfucker.
I can, uh, you know, people says, oh, it's easy to grab someone and kick someone's ass,
brother.
Try to help someone.
You know, I always try to make sure you're at home safe, you know, uh, I have a policy.
Just don't put hands on me.
I said, brother, swearing, it's okay.
You can have bad day.
It's fine.
Uh, my job is to calm, not to try to escalate.
Uh, and, uh, trust me, uh, sometimes I get more tips than the bartender girl, brother.
Uh, why?
Because the way I treat people, brother, it's, uh, you know, with the dignity, with
some respect, uh, you know, sometimes they have a hard day and, uh, you know, they said,
us, I, and they, I actually make them so fucking guilty.
They come to me, apologize, said, sorry.
I mean, I know I've been a piece of shit.
I had really hard.
Don't worry, brother.
I'm here to get you, bro.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's the funny thing is when you, when you treat people just like with respect
beyond like their own immediate, they'll think sometimes, they'll be like, you know
what?
I was in my head.
I'm, yeah, I don't have, I was having a bad day, man.
I'm sorry I took that out on you.
That wasn't, you know, my bad, bro.
Yeah, I've done that almost instantly.
You know what I mean?
Like I've given somebody an attitude and then been like, oh shit, dude, you know what?
I'm sorry that that weren't because of you.
Maybe that's because, you know, I forgot my lunch today.
Right.
My blood sugar's all out of whack.
I'm feeling, I'm in pain.
You know, some of them, they like to work in clubs where they have a lot of guards, you
know.
Me, I prefer tavern, you know, in tavern, like some, like a small pub where they have
bokees and I like to work by myself.
And I used to have like people, five, six people fighting and it's just me.
And I actually managed by myself than you have in a club where the guys all the time,
you know, there is, most of the guards are really good people, but sometimes you have
the newbie or new guy who is like bringing some of his anger issues, you know, to this
industry.
And sometimes he escalates more.
And I said, fuck, I like to do by myself.
I do, you know, because I always try to do everything because I don't want to write
reports.
I hate writing reports.
Fuck them tonight.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I was just checking that text.
I got a text.
It's easy to screw up someone's life.
Try to help someone.
Trust me, you would be surprised.
Well, it's really easy to ruin someone's day or make someone's day too.
That's the thing.
It's like, it's super easy to just run to somebody randomly and completely change their
day for the better or the worse.
So, yeah, I try to make a point of making everyone's day a little bit better that I interact with.
And ever since I started doing that, my life has been profoundly better.
And I, my demeanor and my personality or my, my emotional stability has been much better
too.
You know, like I'm just in a better mood in general.
Uh, you know, this, this is the thing I always say it's, it's easy to be a piece of shit.
It's hard to be a good person.
Right.
And usually things that are hard are worth doing.
So, you know, just try to be like, dude, and I found this out.
So before my body decided to take a shit, I worked, uh, in Gwinnett place at BMW.
Right.
And I drove two hours, one way, two hours, the other, I would see people get on the interstate
and they're like, fucking cutting people off, swearing, beeping.
And I just would get on the interstate and I would just cruise.
You know what I mean?
And I would just kind of chill.
If somebody wanted to get in front of me, I would just let them get in front of me.
Like I stopped that.
And you know what?
I would still get to my exit and I pull off my exit and the dude that was like driving
like an asshole is right there with me.
Right.
You know?
And so that guy is usually not a good driver.
Or a car driver.
So he ends up behind someone anyway.
Right.
And so I didn't have any stress going to work because, dude, the first, like the first month
working up there, I was like, dude, I'm not going to be serious.
Seriously, brother.
You got nowhere, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You got to take it easy, man.
You can't.
That stress will fucking eat you up.
I definitely have a little issues with road rage sometimes.
But I will drive super chill.
But I'm a karmic reflector.
Like it's a problem because it's kind of like, you know, I'm a mirror to society.
So it's kind of like you wake up and it's like, please tell me how we're behaving.
Brother, I have my license.
However you're going to act, that's how we're acting.
My license, I have 20 years, brother, and I only have two speeding tickets.
So I'll be super chill in traffic until there's that asshole who's just cutting people off
and then I make his day a living hell.
You know what I mean?
You know what I hate most?
When someone have a kid inside the car and he is doing some shit.
Imagine if, especially if I have a kid in the car.
Brother, I do everything to calm down, to not overreact on someone else.
I say, you fucking idiot.
You putting your kid.
Okay, I understand you get pissed off when you are alone.
But you putting your kid in a fucking race, that type of people, I will fucking punch, brother.
And teaching that person to be a shitty driver and a person to help them.
That's not nice.
I want to say what's up to Mentaverse.
Yo, I shared up your pin post.
Everyone give us a follow, give us a retweet.
We need to get you in the community at Communities for an official interview before you're mint.
I've reached out a couple times, but I don't know if you follow the form or not.
Yeah, no, bro, we will definitely have to do it.
I'm very busy doing the codes, so I'm a little bit, you know, like...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, it's a bit better to get things locked in and then have some good news.
Exactly.
To drop some alpha on us when you come.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, of course.
Anyway, if you don't mind, I would like to share our project with you guys there on...
Can you hear Mentaverse?
No, just you, brother.
There's no one else.
All right, you need to drop down and come back.
But yeah, we'll hear from you in a second, buddy.
Let Mentaverse is talking right now.
Oh, no, no, no.
No problem, man.
Hey, I was just...
I just came up to say hi.
No, he's a listener to me.
No, no.
You need to drop down.
Here, I'll drop you down and bring you back.
No problem.
Just stay here.
Okay, yeah.
Sorry.
Continue, Mentaverse.
Yeah, no.
I just want to say what up.
What up, Wolfpunks?
What up, Doglanes?
What up, Motherlope?
What up, The Rev?
Hey, how we doing, brother?
Yeah, man.
Nice to meet you, my friend.
It's cool.
I'm cool, man.
Just by the way, Tricky, this that you pinned up, well, it's already 93 likes.
I said I would pick a winner at 88 likes, but I'll just let it go for one more hour for
you guys.
Well, you know what?
You need to change your pin tweet, man.
I just got your pin tweet and threw it up there.
No, no, I didn't pick a winner yet.
Awesome.
I appreciate that.
No, bro.
Bro, I didn't pick a winner yet.
Well, let's go.
It must be meant to be.
Make sure you get in there and tag some people up because we're going to...
Yeah, I'll pick a winner later.
I have a planet.
I know I'll be mincing a planet.
I know Trey's got a planet to mint.
Yeah.
It would be awesome.
I want to get one of those planets.
Wait, this pin tweet, is it?
What?
I want to get one of those.
So it's up on top now.
It's pinned to the jumbo.
It's the planet one.
Free planet mid giveaway.
So yeah, give it a retweet.
Tag some friends.
Make sure you're following Mintiverse.
And yeah, he'll be picking a winner later.
We got in there.
We got in here.
Perfect timing.
So yeah, true.
But yeah, you're working on everything.
But I know your mint's coming up.
Oh, yeah.
You want to give us a little alpha before?
Yeah, yeah, of course.
Yeah, well, we're going to do a couple of mint parties, of course.
Everyone in here, of course, I already said it to all of you.
You know, you all are welcome.
But you all know it already.
I see you in a lot of spaces.
Wolf punks as well.
You're like always homies.
You know what it is, bro?
I'll tell you this.
I am more into Web3.
I talk to you guys more than I talk to my family or my mother.
You know?
It's like I never met you in person.
But it feels like homies, you know?
It feels like saying what up, checking the updates of everybody, what everybody's doing
and stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you go on superspaces.ai, you can see your ranking.
And I slipped this last month.
This last month, I was in the top 1,000.
Now I'm in the top 1,500.
But I still put in about 43 hours last week on spaces on just this primary account.
I have three accounts.
And this is not all I do.
So you can tell I'm a little bit busy in Web3.
Yeah, bro.
Yeah, man.
We had some cool spaces together with Solly last week.
It was an awesome space.
You remember that one with Solly?
Oh, yeah.
All her spaces are funny.
Very cool.
Well, I always join her spaces to sharpen my comedic timing.
Yeah, man.
It's very, it's uplifting, you know?
It makes you laugh.
Yeah.
It makes you feel good again, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you hang out with me after hours and you don't crack a smile, you need to get serious
psychological help ASAP.
True that.
True that.
I'm serious.
Hey, Wolfpunks, I see your hand up.
You got a question?
You got something to add?
Yes.
Can you hear me?
Yes, sir.
Okay, so I just wanted to shout out to Doglands.
If you would please drop two things for me.
Whatever link you want people to have, whether that's Twitter, Discord, you know, whatever.
Also, your logo, please.
I read the story that you put up top.
And I'm going to put it in my Discord in the pet rescue things.
You know, I'm going to put, you know, rescue from, you know, fellow project.
And that you just deserve that.
So that's it.
Yeah, thank you.
I wrote you a ticket in your Discord.
Okay, awesome.
And then I'll let you know when it's done.
Like I said, I copied that, but I want to write it up.
I took the pictures.
I'm going to put the pictures in there.
And I think it's awesome how you got the inspiration.
And like I said, I want, you know, I'm hoping as time goes on that people can share stories with me like that, that I can put in there, you know, so that we can kind of expand the rescue thing.
Like, of course, you know, I'm doing it, but I don't want it to be just me.
So, yes, thank you.
As I said, you're doing what I want to be doing.
Yeah, well, and let me tell you something.
You're going to be doing it eventually.
I know I am.
You know, and that's the thing.
And I'll tell you what, anybody that's ever thought about, you know, wanting to do rescue or wanting to help, you know what I mean?
And it's the best thing you'll ever feel in your life.
But, you know, if you can't rescue, go to a shelter, walk a dog, drop a bag of food off, drop some treats off.
You know, sometimes you can do little things like that.
You know what I'm saying?
For instance, if you see a post on Facebook of a missing dog, share it.
There's so many things you can do.
So, you know, I started from watching a video about beagles being tested on that had me crying.
I got back to Georgia, and the only thing I could do at first was I helped transport.
Then I built and built on that.
So, like I said, every little bit helps, you know.
Even just telling people, like, hey, you know, rescue dogs are great.
Because fucking Sarah McLachlan and the ACPCA, whatever it is, they put that stupid commercial out, and it made rescue dogs look like they're, like, less than.
You know what I mean?
I hated that commercial because it made you feel, oh, these poor little things.
It's like, these are great dogs.
You know, they don't need to be looked at upon that.
You know what I mean?
You should show how great they are not.
You know, but that was just a money grab, so.
And don't let me ramble, but I got to take off.
Like I said, I will let you know when that's done.
Doglins and everybody else, like I said, anybody that's in here, jump into my Discord.
I'll give you some Discord points.
Open a ticket.
But main thing is follow the community.
Communities follow Tricky.
Retweet.
Like.
I'm going to do it right now.
I just undid my retweet and retweeted it.
You know what I mean?
Let's get, you know, more people in here.
Well, this is a recorded space, so they can always, you know, sharing it out means they
can always tap in and see what we talked about.
I think we are going to kind of, you know, cut it off here, come to a close.
But I do want to just say what's up to everybody who joined real quick.
It's the last minute people who popped in.
But I see them rocking the plus.
I really appreciate it.
Let's go, Apollo.
Hell yeah.
That's awesome.
And Mentiverse, I think you need to add that plus.
Wait, wait, wait.
What's that?
Tell me.
Tell me.
I don't know.
So we rock the plus because we're a positive addition to Web3.
Oh, cool, man.
If you're about that positivity, if you're about providing transparency, education, like
that's what we're all about.
So yeah, we throw up the plus because you can just edit.
You edit your name.
It only takes up like half a character.
And that's just the easy way to show support.
I'll do that immediately after the space.
Good one.
I'm in.
Yeah.
But before we go, I do want to hear from Boz.
No, I just want to say that's why we have we have a plus in our project, too.
Yeah.
So you should definitely do research and jump on it.
I got a big old post on my website.
If you don't mind, I can share it.
Yeah.
Well, I would love to see a little something.
Give us a give us like a little bit of background before we head out.
Like for the people who don't know you.
It's a it's a I'm a I'm a bastard of the it's a project.
It's called Bricks.
You know, the Bricks, Brazil, Russia, India.
It's called.
It's a more.
Just give me a second.
If you can give me a moment.
Yeah, it's a brick tokens is like it's like experimental token created by a dev called Brick
Satoshi.
Because out of rage and hate over the greedy devs and manipulative whales lead by scammers.
Brick Satoshi is focused on the common good that's it's designed and implemented for emergent
markets.
This token will focus on the needs of users when it comes to like it's like a giveaways,
airdrops, charity in the future.
Also, like to make sure that do some donations where to get some water to the especially in
the parts of Africa, especially in the era where the crypto landscape is tainted with
the questionable scheme.
And the broken promises, Bricks emerge, Bricks Plus emerge as the bacon of the trust and
hope.
Born from the lesson of the CryptoZoo scandal, we aren't just another token.
Our mission is anchored integrity forged by community that had enough of the deception.
Our vision is to establish a transparent, reliable and scam resistant crypto space where inventors
can be breathed easily.
The unique of the Brick Plus isn't just in the code, it's simple, it's in spirit.
We stand as a testament to resilience to the belief that we can pick up the peace and create
something better.
Awesome.
Well, dude, you're going to have to stop by like next Monday, Wednesday or something like
that.
And we're going to have to do like a deep dive.
I got to hear more.
I want to hear like what charity things you're interested in doing.
I want to hear like, you know, supply, tokenomics, whatever information you want to go into.
You know, let's, let's, let's, let's hear about it.
You know, that would be cool.
I like hearing right from the, right from the founders is dope.
Um, you guys see what I put on the Megatron?
Uh, hold on.
I guess he, yeah, nice.
You got the COC in there.
Yeah.
I got the big old plus.
That is my website.
Okay, cool.
I had a phone call.
I missed it.
I don't see a DeFi space donkey.
I see.
It's pretty cool.
Um, I got some spaces down there left.
Uh, DeFi space donkeys is going on and a couple more.
So, uh, I, I'm in the process of changing because I had, uh, I had to reorder it because
I wanted the dog charities at the top.
And then I wanted to have my partners at the bottom.
So, um, there's actually, yeah, if you scroll down, you can see there's a couple of spaces
left.
So yeah, DeFi space donkeys is going on there, but I haven't asked you yet.
I always ask first.
Like I asked the community of communities.
Of course he did.
Yeah.
Well, you know, you are a DeFi space donkey and you even have a couple.
So like, you don't even need permission.
You just put it.
I know, but I always, I always like to ask, you know what I mean?
And also, I mean, let's think about it this way.
Like it's kind of a way of me bragging it up to you without bragging it up to you.
Right.
Like I get to say, Hey, are you okay with this?
And then, you know, you know what I'm saying?
You know, so I try to pull, um, thinking we're going to throw a dog ones up there because
of, you know, the, I like to throw my dog projects up there.
Um, because as we expand, we're going to work more with them.
Uh, the DeFi space donkeys, um, I've got some aura up there.
So yeah, we're, I think it's important to represent who represents you.
Is that the way to put it?
You know?
So support the people for you.
I mean, especially when you know that navigating this area is tough.
So if you can go out your community and say, look, the, these are some people who I think
are solid, you know, you can kind of like steer people, uh, you know, keep them a little
bit safer.
You know what I mean?
It's hard to call out all the bad actors.
So at least you can rep your friends.
You know what I mean?
Well, the thing, the thing that I like, sometimes you go on somebody's, um, I went on somebody's
website and it was like, you know, people I've never heard of, you know what I mean?
It was like, like this finance, like, like black rock finance and blah, blah, blah, all
this stuff.
And I'm like, I'm like, no, you put web three people in there.
You know, like I got founders Alliance on there.
I've got, you know, just hustlers because they token gated my, uh, thing so that I can
get in there and look at their, um, call outs and stuff, you know, and it's like, that's
a bonus because once you get in there, there's more stuff.
So you may want to buy into their platform.
Right.
So it's good.
Both of us, but yeah, represent who represents you.
Yeah.
A hundred percent.
Well, then I told you what I call, so it's me, you stonked and ash.
Have I ever told you what I call this?
I'm thinking like something between like suicide squad and broken warriors.
I don't know.
What do you got?
The cripple click.
Die hard squad.
Yeah.
That's great.
Yeah.
I mean, we know it's people who have dealt with fear, like trauma and, um, disabilities,
uh, for an extended period of time have developed, uh, a unique set of skills and superpowers
to, you know, an asset to, to anybody to help them get like perspective and, and stuff like
that.
So, you know, yeah, shout out to everybody who's out there building, regardless of how
they feel.
Let's freaking go.
Let's freaking go.
So, but yeah, I want to, I want to, I want to hear more about, uh, Boz.
I want to hear more about like charity projects and stuff.
I left the comment on there, but yeah, we got to talk more.
No problem.
Uh, I love that you've added the plus to the end of your thing.
Like, that's hilarious.
That's a funny, funny coincidence there.
The idea came, uh, because a BRICS is not just, uh, uh, about Brazil, Russia, India, China,
uh, it's more, because it's more, because other people also, other countries, they joining.
Uh, so that's why the plus came from.
Yeah.
We did this.
We had this hilarious thing.
I think it was bacon, uh, the bacon sandwich.
No, because there is always something in your life.
There is more than, uh, than the, the, how do you call it?
The base.
It's always something to add.
Yeah, no, you've got to be, yeah, you got to be inclusive and show there's always more
to come too.
Right.
Um, so I don't know if you know, there's this, there's this news company now called Fox
news.
They're real big in America.
They're, I mean, they're everywhere, but, uh, news corporation is dominant all over the
place, but, um, Fox news is, they're kind of, they're a little bit crazy and they always
go off about random stuff.
They're, they're, they're kind of diggots, but they were going off about the LGBTQ plus
movement and they're like, who are these plus people?
What's with these plus people?
And, and we made like a video in response and we're like, actually the plus represents
the community of communities.
We're a positive addition to web three and even you could add the plus and join us and
be part of the community of communities.
It's like, it was just hilarious.
It's like, like my, uh, my day plus, you know, yeah, but yeah, no, there's so many
different ways to, to interpret it, but it's, yeah, simple, very straightforward.
We're a positive addition to the community of communities.
Like that's, what's up.
Add that plus represent us in new and you'll start to notice, you know, just like buying
a new car.
Everyone's got this thing.
It's everywhere.
And it's awesome to be in spaces and see people from the community that, you know, it's been
pre-bedded in a little bit.
Brother, trust me, brother.
I go to work, brother.
And I, I actually take, uh, we, I take my own money and I giveaways.
And, uh, sometimes I do my own airdrops and something, uh, just, just because I can, that's
what I do.
That's it, brother means nothing to me, but also good feeling.
Trust me.
Uh, I donated my, I donated blood over 60, 66 times, brother.
So plasma platelets, uh, uh, what's else?
Plasma platelets, full blood, brother.
On the end of the day, I always, when I don't work, uh, if I'm, if I'm on a parenting pay or
something, I still do volunteer work.
I just help giving something to society back about it.
That's how.
That's awesome.
You can save a life with every one of those donations.
Uh, and I don't want to know where it goes.
I just want to help.
That's it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
It's usually going to a good cause.
Sometimes I, a vampire out and just break in and drink a bunch of the bags, but usually
it goes to a good cause.
I don't know.
But do you know guys who is like Christians, the Abraham story, prophet Abraham, and when
he was on a fire and they tried to set him on a fire and the ant was bringing the water
and, uh, like a drops, you know, and it was, everyone was asking him, you know, you know,
the water you bring to, uh, to turn or shut the fire off, uh, is not enough.
He says, maybe it's enough, but I want to make sure I, when I'm accountable, uh, so
everyone knows on what side I was, uh, that's the same me, brother.
I always try to do what I can do, brother.
It's who give a shit, uh, what everyone else saying.
Yeah.
You know what side I'm on.
I think you're a legend, Boz, by the way.
You know, keep being a legend, keep smashing it and keep bringing that energy into the industry,
bro.
Absolute legend, my friend.
You know, absolutely love what you're doing and I love how you're doing it.
And, you know, you tell, I can tell you, just a person that stands up for the people
that have no voice.
So keep doing it and people will keep supporting you 100%.
You know, I donate blood, right?
Or I have donated blood, you know?
Um, but I would never donate semen.
I think it would be very strange to have somebody out there running around that you don't know.
100%.
That's the thing I wouldn't do either.
Yeah.
If it's for, like, scientific research or...
Yeah, something like that, but...
Other than that, yeah.
Yeah, but, uh, I wouldn't be able to know that I have a human being there that's...
Oh, no.
Hell no, brother.
Hell no.
Yeah, you know?
That's just the weirdest thing to me and I don't know.
Did you guys...
To be honest, I think...
I think, yeah, the amount of children I've got, I'm good.
Did you guys hear about this story?
I don't know.
I saw it a few months ago.
You're thinking about the doctor that mixed his load with all the other ones to make sure
that they are always getting pregnant?
And now he has, like, 500 kids.
Yeah, yeah.
And then...
Oh, my God.
These kids don't know that they are related to each other.
Some of them are just, uh, had sex with each other and stuff.
You know?
Oh, my God.
They don't know.
Oh, my God.
It's a fucking mess.
You made the fucking mess out of it, man.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Look, brother...
Could you imagine that family reunion coming together?
But not donating salmon, it's like, uh, you are not selfish.
Selfish is if you, uh, you have a lot of kids who don't have parents who are orphans
and they deserve family.
Uh, that's where you should adopt the kid.
Imagine I have a kid.
I have four kids.
Yeah.
I would adopt one more kid.
But the problem in Australia is they want you, brother, to pay them to adopt a kid.
They will around, to adopt a kid costs between $10,000 to $15,000 in Australia, uh, process
and everything.
And I say, Mike, I'm taking the kid out of, from, uh, from your responsibility, from the
government.
It's like a sliding scale, too.
Like, if you want a fresh baby...
Trust me, brother, I would adopt a kid.
I would adopt one more kid because I would love to give a home to them.
My brother, the system in Australia, it's fucked up so hard.
Uh, instead of focusing to give opportunity to people who want to adopt a kid, like,
uh, uh, you know...
But, but also, like, first of all, you can get government subsidies to pay for some of
those things if you want to adopt, actually, and foster or something like that.
But also, it costs money to have a kid.
Like, if you were to give birth, it costs, like, $10,000, $15,000, like, in this country.
I don't know.
It depends on what country you're in.
But, like, having kids is expensive.
So, like, yeah, I, I, it should be cheaper to...
Brothers should be free, brother, to adopt a kid.
Except only you need to check their background, obviously.
I understand that.
They need to make sure they have $15,000 to raise the kid, not to buy the kid.
Literally, this is a process, brother, to literally, uh, it's like a fee.
Some kind of shit of fees.
I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about, mate?
I mean, it's kind of weird that you can buy a person in general when you think about it.
But, yeah.
You would seem, like you said, that the person should get them, that's willing to raise them,
should be able to get them free as long as...
Okay, so, okay, here's the thing.
Listen, maybe you have to pay $100 to pay for the fucking background check or something, right?
But to pay for the person, no.
It should go to a loving family, right?
But then they have, at least over here, they have foster parents that get money subsidies.
And then there's places where these kids are chained up in houses and shit and not, you know,
or they'll have, like, 10 kids from that.
But, again, it's really sad, you know, so.
Yeah.
It's a paycheck for some people.
It is.
Yeah.
They really need to make...
It would be great if they had, like, a parenting test and, like, also genetic tests.
So, like, if you have, like, super good genetics, like, super healthy genetics,
or if you have, like, super good parenting skills, you get, like, an extra license where they give you,
basically, a subsidy to encourage you to raise children.
And then you can either adopt or have your own or whatever like that.
But, like, we should be trying to encourage, like, people who are good parents.
That's why in Australia the number of the kids that was born dropped, used to be 2.7, now dropped to 1.3.
Why?
Because in the past they used to have, like, for every kid that was born, they used to,
the government used to give, like, a subsidy.
And, you know, to, once you get a kid, now they don't give anything except the parenting leave.
That's nothing.
That's your legal, you know, right.
And that's why the number of, like, families who are having kids dropped to 1.3.
Well, and here's the thing, too.
Tell me this.
How come my rescue, who adopts dogs out, right?
Since 2017, I've been working there.
We've only had two dogs returned.
One was because the lady passed away.
The family didn't want it.
It's in the contract.
It has to come back.
The second, the lady was moving to Germany during COVID.
They wouldn't let him take the dog.
So it's not that they couldn't find them good homes.
Because if I can find all these dogs good homes, and we do hardcore, you know, vetting beforehand, you know, I mean, we talked to the vets.
We talked to the, you know, family references, all this stuff.
It's that they, people that are getting paid to do this are employment, you know, or government employees.
They don't give a shit, you know, and they'll, they'll place somebody with, you know, oh, okay, well, we've already given this person one kid who's a, you know, a foster parent.
So we'll just give them more because we talked to them once and they were okay, even though that might be the worst person in the world.
I got an opinion about this topic.
What was that?
I got an opinion about this topic.
Yeah, you, uh, you, she grew up in foster care, you have, you dealt with the foster care system at all?
I know, I have, I guess, acquaintances or friends that have been in it.
I personally think, from my opinion, I cannot speak for the world, that the foster system should be better structured in this format than I'm going to state.
Number one, have a better background check for the parents.
Number two, give out fundings in an escrow in the form of a welfare.
So what do I mean?
Meaning the money that is given can only be allocated in like a debit card that's either for food or items that allocates to the age of the child.
Number three, if a parent is of an impoverished neighborhood, they need to be vetted because adopting a child, whether the government is going to assist you or pay you,
is going to have very adverse growing hindrance and psychological effects for a child growing in such an area compared to a middle class or a well-off area.
Yeah, that shouldn't be a fair.
Ergo, why I personally haven't had a kid yet.
Yeah, no, and here's the thing, if they're going to therapy, right, which they need, then if the situation is shitty at home, then they can be like, hey, this lady's locking me in a closet, right?
So, yeah, this...
Yeah, they need a support system to, like, you need a community and having just foster parents when sometimes those foster parents are abusive and stuff.
But also, some parents are like that as well.
We just need...
We need a better society as part of the problem.
They need a community of communities.
Yeah, exactly.
Not every parent is a parent.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know too many single mothers that they still live in like they're 16.
Me too.
Thanks.
Very true.
Well, I really appreciate everyone for stopping by.
You know, we had a bunch of different varying conversations, but a lot of good conversations.
Very cool to meet more people, see more people adding the plus.
Lots of good things coming.
Lots of good things we're building.
You know, shout out to Thy Rev for stopping by.
Wolf Pump, Doglins, Mentiverse, we've got to get you on a show later.
Kat's definitely going to have you back in here and we'll talk more about community growth.
Paulo, thanks again for adding that plus.
Ba is looking forward to talking more.
And I see Yusuf down there.
What's up, Yusuf?
Nice to meet you.
Thank you for stopping by.
As always, sharing the room out.
Keep on supporting people.
Make sure you're in those group chats and you support your friends around you.
You know, support gets support.
That's the best way to grow.
So, you know, just keep it up.
Stay positive.
And I will check you in with the next one.
Always here Monday and Wednesday, 4 to 6 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
But we also have those community, community spaces on Friday and Saturday during the same time.
Always featuring two guests.
Great conversations.
We make secondary conversations out of that material.
So we really only have people talk at the very end to ask questions.
Other than that, we focus on the main guests.
But feel free to stop by, support, ask questions, and learn about some great projects.
You know, we always have cool people stopping by.
So many legends have come through.
And we're just going to keep on building.
I really can follow you back, Tricky.
I will follow you.
T-Y, Rev.
I follow the wall.
Yes, sir.
So I'm looking forward to talk to you again.
Have a good one.
Yes, sir.
You want to joke before we leave?
Let's hear it.
Let's hear it.
Okay, so this man and husband are at home at night.
They hear somebody break in.
He comes up, ties them up, ties them both to two chairs, right?
He whispers in her ear.
He goes in the bathroom.
And he says, honey, whatever he wants to do, he said, I won't judge you.
Just, you know, whatever he asks, just, you know, be a trooper.
Just go with it.
She said, okay.
She said, all right, great.
He said, what did he say to you?
He said, oh, he told me he just got out of prison.
He was looking for the lube.
Terrible.
He's strong, honey.
Anyway, guys, thank you for having us, looking forward to the next one.
Sorry, I have to look after my daughter.
Yeah, daddy doody.
Yeah, brother.
Sorry, my friend.
Never be sorry.
Beautiful sound.
Kids are amazing, bro.
That's why we do what we do.
So, yeah.
Big love to you and your little family.
Have a good one, guys.
Stay safe.
Yeah.
You guys have a great one.
We will catch you on the next one.
Stay tuned.
Keep those notifications on.
Stay positive.
Thank you, bro.
Much love.
Yeah, I'm in.
I'm always in another space.
There's more places that are running.
I'm in another place right now.
But, yeah, we'll be continuing with this nonsense.
But this space has come to a close.
We've gone over an hour and a half, so I figure it's time.
If you find a good space, shoot me a link.
Yeah, will do.
I'll catch you guys around.
Feel free to follow me around.
Turn on those notifications.
I'm always live.
I'll catch you guys around.
