This was, uh, not the intersection of my worlds I was expecting to see today. Ezra talking Justin Sun…I guess we made it?

Started economist project and already learned some crazy stuff:

- In 1997, we were one vote away from passing a balanced budget CONSTITUTIONAL amendment. Some were opposed because deficit spending could be needed during recession/war

- Already had a Y2K article; a bank was planning to spend about 1% of revenue to fix/solidify their systems

Think I am going to try and read every issue of the economist in their archive - 25 years worth

Introducing $PROCOIN, the community-led governance token for Farcaster Pro users.

All 10k NFT holders are eligible for an airdrop.

But there’s a twist.

**The token will be untransferable until 500 Pro users claim.**

In order to get a mandate as a community token, we need broad support.

To claim, quotecast this post with the text “Ratifying @procoin governance”

All 10k NFT holders are eligible, but the first 500 claimers will receive ~5x the allocation.

I don’t know what it is, but it’s provocative - it gets the people going

Just heard what (I assume is inadvertently) the worlds best podcast ad: “Hiscox - there’s no business like small business”

I’ve just realized the Twitter game ads show intentionally bad play to try and nerdsnipe you into downloading the game to prove how much better you are than the idiot playing in the ad

Todays current thing is definitely still the tariffs but I’ve noticed an uptick on Twitter of people making the “well akschually have you heard of 4d-chess” argument which I’m guessing is at least partly manufactured

Is there a list of "current things" in the past? Want to go back and see what they were and where they are now

Inspired by this I’m going to start casting what my corner of the internet thinks the current thing is each day. Todays current thing is definitely tariffs
