“Being excellent and competent is an act of worship!” - #AJS #Koinonia

I’ve picked my laptop up atleast 10 times today, placed it on my lap, checked my to-do-list, attempted to start something, and I just couldn’t focus. I’d click around for a few minutes, close the lid and re-try. I think this is my entire system saying - I can’t today! 😖

One of the coolest things I’ve seen AI do lately. Just… wow!

@cprkrn @AnthropicAI @DarioAmodei Okay….. now THATTTTTT is very very cool! Wow!

HOLY FUCKING SHIT OMG CLAUDE JUST CRACKED THIS SHIT, THANK YOU @AnthropicAI THANK YOU @DarioAmodei NAMING MY KID AFTER YOU 😍 blockchain.com/explorer/addre…

The struggles of “context switching” aren’t talked about enough. Even for naturally great multi-taskers.

An off shoulder outfit >>>> anyday, anytime! 😍

JUST IN: 🇮🇷 Iran to require ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz to pay tolls in Bitcoin, FT reports.

Nigeria is ranked #1 in global USDT and USDC ownership. Not the US. Not the UK. Not Singapore. Nigeria. 59% of Nigerian crypto users hold USDT. 48% hold USDC. More than any other country surveyed. India is third. Brazil close behind. The reason is obvious once you see it: in countries where local currency loses 20–40% of value annually, stablecoins aren't a crypto product. They're a savings account. A dollar-denominated store of value that doesn't require a US bank account. Here's what the data doesn't show: most of those stablecoin holders can't use their USDT to buy anything. No merchant acceptance. No subscription billing. No automatic payment. No way to pay a supplier. They hold the dollars. They can't spend the dollars. They convert back to fiat every time they need to transact. The gap between stablecoin adoption and stablecoin utility is most visible not in San Francisco or Singapore. It's in Lagos, Jakarta, São Paulo. $308B in circulation. The people who need stablecoin commerce most have the fewest tools to access it. That's not a distribution problem. That's an infrastructure problem. The rails exist everywhere. The billing layer doesn't exist anywhere. That's who we're building for.

After more than a decade of uncertainty, this interpretation will provide market participants with a clear understanding of how the SEC treats crypto assets under federal securities laws. This is what regulatory agencies are supposed to do: draw clear lines in clear terms.

Nations will come to my light, And kings to the brightness of my rising.

Omo, bench press is hard o! 🥴

Just watched this @MaisonValentino ad and I’m sat here thinking… It’s 2026, shouldn’t perfume ads be more innovative than the same old format I’ve seen for as long as I can remember? 🤷🏽‍♀️

I honestly can’t remember when last I took a nap! As in… fall asleep in the middle of the day? What a luxury! 😒 😏

The world we live in leaves us with little to no choice but to be caught up in being, becoming, achieving, and accomplishing. …But as often as we can, let’s pause and take a look around us, there’s much to do for people. You have the answer to someone’s prayer. Answer it!

I’m not a software developer, engineer or anything of the sort… But let’s just say lately, I’ve gotten real familiar with “vibe-coding”, and “vibe-code debugging” even more… I want to pull my hair out. Welp! 😭

A wannan duniya’n, zan yi bala’in kudi… In Allah ya yarda, Infact, Ya riga Ya yarda. 🙏🏽

Did I just see “Say Yes to the Dress” on Netflix? Takes me right back to Fashion Network days on DSTV!… Nice! 😅

Everything you want is on the other side of discipline. Lock in! 🔒

Is anyone else tired of the “hide and seek” that Emily and Gabriel won’t stop playing? Pffffft! Annoying! #EmilyInParis
