jobs not finished.
now...
there were quite a few of you who submitted and weren't selected. i know how much that sucks, and as hard as i try to be fair and objective, there are always collectors that feel left out/wronged/pissed off/etc.
in an effort to share my gratitude for the support, < please stand for the apocalypse xiii > has been minted and will ONLY BE AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO WERE NOT SELECTED FOR THE OTHER PIECES.
if you'd like to mint an edition and you were not selected in the previous lottery - drop your address below. (except if you were one of the people that told me to fuck off - you can kick rocks)
there will be no exceptions, sorry.

I had totally missed this drop by @sashastiles
You get to buy a physical 1/1 for $100
Each copy is an original, with a unique cover drawn from a timestamped artifact of the live system. First 100 covers: alivingpoemcodex.com.
So I just bought 8 🔥
Only a few left 👀⏰

An array of citizens sitting on the floor, fully insured (meaning you keep your color art if they become evaders).
Seems like a perfect entry point if you want to play death and taxes by @m0dest___
Purchase cost is lower than the tax, insurance, and mint fees already paid.

"how do you want to sell your 1/1?"
"yes."
The Lab gives you:

→ Reserve + Buy Now (at the same time)

→ Fixed Price
→ Embeddable auction widget for your own site
Oh and every listing shows up in live auction feeds and discovery tabs on transient dot xyz automatically.

GM!!! good palette cleanser after Vanity Fair BS.
TLDR; zooming out, we're still very early and the more we focus on the art, the rest will work itself out. 🦾

Short-Handed
by @Coldie (2020)
in the WHALE Vault 🐳🔒
No piece of art worthy of the name can rely on its accompanying artist statement or museum placard to convey its power and meaning. It either stands on its own or it doesn't. But damn if sometimes the backstory and context provided by such supplements don't extend and enhance the work before you.
Coldie's menagerie of x-rayed hands and the inky blackness that devours them over and over in this piece prompt fascinated meditations in isolation — but the story shared by the artist alongside the work serves to refract everything into both a specific remembrance of a (very chaotic) time and a broader reflection on what artists use art for.

I’m not a big fan of toxic positivity. Pretending everything is great when it clearly isn’t helps no one. Problems should be talked about openly.
But constant complaining without trying to change anything isn’t much better. After a while it often turns into empty engagement seeking. The same criticism gets repeated again and again, but nothing actually moves forward.
Critique is important. It helps a space grow. But critique only becomes meaningful when it leads somewhere. When it pushes people to build, organize, support alternatives, or try a different way of doing things.
If you don’t like how something works, build the counterpart. Create the alternative. Support the people who are already trying to do it differently.
Real change usually comes from people who start building something better, not the ones complaining constantly.

@eddiemcpigskin respectfully disagree, he has been in the TCG hobby longer than most. He has been supporting this hobby a LOT longer than you think

Steve Aoki has entered the Pokémon card hobby with Kim Kardashian. 😳
Aoki’s “collecting” track record for context:
🪦 NFTs pumped MetaZoo, went bankrupt, class action lawsuit pending (rug pull)
🪦 Collectible card game same company, same fate (bait and switch)
The man is not a collector. He’s a weather vane.
When Steve Aoki shows up to your hobby, that’s not a sign of growth.
That’s the last call at the bar. 📉
