My fiancé @car0hare + I spent 2021 working with / encouraging / strategizing for each other. (While raising a young king named Myles.) @LinkedIn noticed our journey + put us in a global campaign! My fave line: "dad life / work life / it's all life." We are beyond grateful!

F*ck creatine. It’s creativity that can help you live longer. More below. ⬇️ open.substack.com/pub/mickbatysk…

I wrote about why 90's culture is still so relevant... and how Dunkin' assembled a multiversal memory - the Avengers of comedy. Would LOVE for you to check it out... mickbatyske.substack.com/p/the-90s-neve…

Finally took the @substack plunge. ✍️ Excited to share my thoughts on all things creativity (and yes, that includes creators as well.) First newsletter is live: open.substack.com/pub/mickbatysk…

@racslife_ lolol

You guys will never admit it but the Jellyfish is SO totally an adidas sneaker you’d have totally ignored in a Dicks Sporting Goods.

@NickyChulo except they should NEVER be called VINYLS. dear lord lol.

@azeemk @0xMiden @a16zcrypto @1kxnetwork @hack_vc Congrats man. This is epic. 🔥

The news is out! Couldn't be more excited to announce that I'm back in the ring as a builder. Coming on as a co-founder to @0xMiden with our $25M seed fundraise being co-led by @a16zcrypto , @1kxnetwork , and @hack_vc . I spoke to what must have been over a 100 projects in the past few months, but nothing came close to being nearly as exciting as what this team is building. My co-founder @bobbinth is genuinely the most impressive person I've met in Web3 in the 13 years I've spent in this space. And this is no exaggeration. Brilliant, humble, and hustles like no other. Vitalik brought him into Web3 and got him working at the EF years ago on zk, then he went to Meta where he led the zk team, and is a Polygon cofounder as well. When I say the most impressive, I mean it. Privacy, scalability, and decentralization, with the ability to offer compliance. That's what separates Miden from just another blockchain. And we're going to be bringing institutions on chain with this. If you're a builder in this space, I'd love to hear from you. My DMs are open.

@TFJoeBot1 What’s the teal Hot Rod-looking figure?

These 3 were high on my list of figures I always wanted, but wasn’t sure I’d ever pull the trigger.

Vegas this weekend was crazy. 🏎️

@jimihendrixlive Great meeting you this weekend in the Gordon Ramsey garage. Glad you guys liked the music. Best of luck this season! ☘️

⁦@FanaticsFerrari⁩ ⁦@ScuderiaFerrari⁩ Strong showing by Charles and Ferrari but not quite enough here ⁦@F1⁩

@TaylorSicard @nycmarathon @NickDiodato Do it!

Thinking of doing @nycmarathon 2025 after seeing @iamMICK start training and @NickDiodato’s post about it being his 10th anniversary.

Peter Bjorn And John – Living Thing (2009) The last album of the decade! PBJ returns with a tone that's even more distinct than SR—truly unexpected! With a bold and experimental sound, they did a major turning point! 🤖💬there is a special version remixed by @iamMICK that year🤖

Who won #Drake #Kendrick #TheGame #RickRoss #HipHop #BattleRap .... @TheFakeJSands @iamMICK @SandsOnSports @tahirjahi

A fun MDW soundtrack for your BBQs, patios, road trips, and family time. 🍔🎧🌭 90's + 2000's hiphop + r&b, vintage funk + soul, Afrobeats, neo-soul, non-corny pop vibes, lots of remixes that you have never heard, and some fun bonus songs as well! open.spotify.com/playlist/2C5h6…

Last year, I had the experience + honor of deejaying in front of 30K people at Citi Field for the @Mets. I’m excited to announce that I'll be returning this season as well! Next Friday / May 31 Taking people on a journey thru classic Queens hiphop + much more. See you there!

Today would be a perfect day for the long-awaited, heavily-rumored Clipse reunion album. 🌚🌞
