Assistant #1 came across this piece of art at the home of the bridal shower she went to last weekend.

She took a picture immediately and I knew we had to show you.

Meme imitates art imitates life (or something like that).

neat little bit of trivia:

the hands of analog watches/clocks in advertisements was set to 10:10 or close to 10:10 because it was found to be visually pleasing to the public

Farcaster Pro update

A) The limited edition NFT will be airdropped early next week to the first 10,000 pro subscribers. It will appear in your in-app Farcaster wallet. You will be able to send it to another wallet.

B) We have 3 Pro subscriber benefits that will likely ship the week of June 16th:

1. 10K character casts

2. 4 embeds — originally it was going to be 4 images but we've expanded it to 4 embeds including images, videos, URLs, CAs and mini apps.

3. A new, previously announced feature: profile banner images

C) We'll have FIPs up later today for the proposed protocol implementations.

D) We're finalizing the Pro subscription contract on Base. It will accept USDC and allow for monthly or yearly subscriptions permissionlessly at the protocol, i.e. any app can allow Pro subscriptions.

There will be some clean up work to do in the Farcaster app to reflect monthly subscriptions. We don't have immediately plans to offer UX for monthly in-app but people will be able to build mini apps that do this.

this is such a legit way to think of casting for content

all too often, I wonder why certain posts don’t get traction and the reason typically is: timing

Parenting

currently, I’m about halfway (with funds) on purchasing a bijou for the kiddo. 

has anyone purchased one for their kiddos? any thoughts or reviews?

I'm thinking about using @crowdfund in a novel way (like an on-chain piggy bank) to save for a outdoor gym for my kiddo (I'll probably do a review of the process as well as the 699 version requires you to buy your own wood). 

I'm about halfway with funds, but am wondering if I can use it as a way to store funds (that I can't use or draw from) until I have the full amount.   

Has anyone else done this? Are there any limitations?

Books

Everything is on sale on Audible right now. Would you please recommend a few audiobooks to me? I’m gonna try to line up my next 10-20 books this week. 

Here are some recommendations for you:

Kitchen Confidential read by the author
The Ocean at the End of the Lane read by the author
Angela’s Ashes read by the author 
The Innocents Abroad read by Grover Gardner (he’s consistently great)
Moby Dick read by Jonathan Epstein (captures the humor, makes the book feel much more manageable)

personally…

everyone should read:

‘The Body Keeps the Score’ by Bessel van der Kolk
