As the NFT world is becoming more and more mainstream, I'm seeing more people pretend to love nfts for business/hype/money, but not for the actual culture/community. It hurts to see a space I love saturated with business execs/celebs who become into it for the wrong reasons.
My nail lady works in a small 2:2 shop in koreatown and spends hours on one personβs nails a day.
This βinfluencerβ asked her for free service in exchange for promotion/posts and then blocked her instead of posting. Taking advantage of small businesses is not cool.
So excited to say this is my first week as an event content manager at

The way Chinese period drama Love Like The Galaxy has me by the throat.
I literally cannot think about anything else except Ling Bu Yi and Cheng Shao Shang.
I never said anything publicly, but I paid off my credit card 2 weeks ago.
It didn't really hit me because there was no fanfare, no hullabalooβ just a quiet moment shared with myself.
But man, does it feel good to see that $0.00 balance.
maybe like 5 times a day someone goes: hey erika π₯° how have you been?
me: hi! [goes into detail about how i've been]
them: nice [doesn't acknowledge anything i said] so like im starting an nft project would LOVE if you could help promote/write about it

Today was my last day as a reporter at news 9. It has been extremely difficult to make this decision, as tv news has been a huge part of my life for the past 7 years and my heart has grown so attached to the people I work with and the communities I cover.
I can't believe someone found my ID on the floor in the streets of LA a few weeks ago and found me on Instagram to return it. Now we are friends and we even hung out. She's a journalist too. Life is crazy.
When I first found out about Checks, I was immediately intrigued by the art, its cultural relevance, and its mechanics

@BossBeautiesNFT
anyone else noticed female projects are undervalued for the amount of value they bring? any other project with a collab with MARVEL would have broken a 0.4 floor and a project like WOW with reese and shonda should be at least 6eth rn

Really funny cause I pitched this exact story and similar headline back in August and all publications passed on it. I knew

was gonna blow up.
A social media pet peeve I have is people who purposely don't follow others back to maintain a ratio.
It doesn't make you cooler or more important of a person. You miss out on a opportunities to connect/engage with the community around you and people who support you.
