NEXUS RIPSTOP CARGO SHORTS FROM OFFICIAL®

It's summer and we've got you covered. Correction, uncovered. But we're still keeping you well equipped with these differentiated cargo shorts. Pockets, Nylon webbed built-in belt, and just enough techwear vibe to it to say, "Hey, I might nerd out a bit but I still know how to party." Cop while hot.

J. CREW NEEDED THIS SO BAD

Brendon Babenzien, from Noah and formerly Supreme designer, is the new Creative Director for J. Crew. Have you been to a J. Crew lately? I haven't either. This might inspire me to step inside one a few months from now.

F*cK THE BOTS

Excellent article on Input Mag describing how the sneaker brands (Nike, Adidas) have forgotten that there is a human on the other side of that SNKRS app trying to buy a shoe they really like. They've let the bots beat everybody. This article shares the story of two companies, Laced and SoleSavy that are fighting to bring the power back to the people. People > Bots every time. Good 3 minute read...

¢ ALT COIN OF THE WEEK ¢

THIS IS WHERE ALL THE PRESALES HAPPEN FOR MEME COINS...

This week we're going to the degen mecca of the internet; dxsale.app. If you don't know about dxsale then we probably shouldn't even be telling you about it. This is where all the presales happen for meme coins. All the "get in early" before the coins are put into liquidity pools on Pancake Swap or Uniswap. Actually, dxsale was the launchpad for Safemoon. You could have purchased $1000 for $0.0000000002 and be a billionaire right now. But for every Safemoon there are 1000 other meme coins that you lost every penny you put into it as whales just dump the second the coin goes live in a liquidity pool or exchange. Dxsale is both a look into the future and a look into a degenerates idea of decentralized finance. It's inspiring and scary at the same damn time.

JUST A LITTLE SNEAKER PORN

Kah Bane is basically the hentai of sneaker porn. He (or she?) digitally renders sneakers beyond our wildest fantasies. It's almost more satisfying to know that nobody can actually have these and that they only exist on the internet.

IT'S A WHOLE VIBE

Glass Animals... if you've heard of them, then you should know they've got an upcoming tour and if you didn't know, now you know. If you haven't heard of them, I'd recommend giving the song "Heat Waves" a listen.

BITCOIN PIZZA?

So there's this old Bitcoin tale of the first actual transaction for bitcoin was a pizza in Miami. The Bitcoin spent then is the equivalent of $10,000 for one pizza. Anthony Pompliano @apompliano has launched a ghost pizza model where you can order "Bitcoin Pizza" (Only 10,000 pizzas made worldwide this Saturday) from 10 different cities and they'll be delivered to you. Ironically, you can't pay in bitcoin. Anthony's argument is that the whole joke of it is that a guy wasted $10,000 bucks on a pizza so you should learn that lesson and not actually spend your Bitcoin on Pizza.

The headline says it all, check out this Twitter thread, it's amazing.

EYE CONTACT IS LINKED TO HEIGHTENED AUTONOMIC AROUSAL RESPONSE

Remember when you were growing up and someone told you to look them in the eyes when you were talking to them? Seems like they might have known what they were talking about... A new study from Tampere University in Finland found that eye contact during video calls can elicit similar psychological responses to in-person eye contact.
