Ernie Johnson was my neighbor.
We never really spoke.
But many times growing up, I'd see him pushing his son Michael around the neighborhood.
Michael had Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a disease that slowly takes away your muscles.
Ernie and his wife adopted him from Romania and gave him the best life.
No cameras. No crowd. Just a dad showing up.
His example said everything I needed to see as a kid.
Now I try to be that kind of dad for mine.
Congrats on an incredible career, Ernie. Thank you for your example. 🐐

The list of questions is available in the Discord OG chat. It covers topics such as the bookstore, consume-to-earn, Stuff's own blockchain, marketing efforts and how B2B deals support the company's original goal. I love it that Josh and Ben take time to answer the tough questions from the community. Good opportunity to catch up on Stuff if you've been out of the loop.

Gm mfers!
Damn, @RobinhoodCrypto is getting so much activity the chain is starting to buckle which is so bullish.
You mfers are not ready for @MallardOrder's new collection on Robinhood.
This one isn't just cool utility and multiple ways to earn actively or passively the art is absolutely bugged out.
🪶 ABOUT THE COLLECTION
250+ traits and climbing. Our artist @Fiqhi_Alfani is still refining everything behind the scenes. 4K resolution on all of your art. True high level quality.
A lot of collections are popping up on Robinhood right now. Very few arrive with what we're bringing with us:
— 1.7K+ existing holders
— ~8K in Discord
— 16K+ on X
— Fully doxxed founders
— 4+ years of hosting IRL events and shipping products like our raid-2-earn platform @RaidersGuild.
Just google "The Mallard Order" we're every where from Twitch, to GIFY, Reddit, Tiktok, Youtube etc. SEO never lies and never does history you can't erase.
Something copy cats can't replicate is HISTORY.
Expanding the Mallard Order into a wider network is the single most beneficial thing we can do for the people who already hold.
🔮 UTILITY (what we'll say for now)
Imagine a gamified ecosystem where discovering ingredients in order to craft recipes will mean rewards.
Every Mallard is more than a pfp. It's a vault and what your duck holds, you hold.
⚔️ Real assets, not points. Rewards land where your Mallard can carry them.
🕯️ Weight is earned, not bought. Rarity matters. Tenure matters more. The Order rewards the faithful.
🗳️ The Great Ceremony. The Mallard Order gathers at the Altars and decides together. Nobody wins the pot for themselves the Mallard Order chooses what all shall receive.
🎴 Divinations. A separate rite, real prizes, for those who want their fate drawn.
The rest gets revealed later.
I love new tech and I love new opportunity, and @vladtenev just gets it. He understands the audience and he understands how to actually incentivize people into onboarding. This is why Robin Hood just makes sense to us for Mallard Order's new expansion.
📜 WHAT'S NEXT
Next week I'm dropping announcements in Discord for the early alpha lovers, how you get involved, what the phases look like. We'll publish a full article on X and @Medium alongside it.
The WL phase will be fully gamified and it starts soon. Our community managers will be introducing themselves across communities shortly.
Special Partner WL's goes out to cross-chain communities on ETH, SOL, BTC, ADA, XRP-L, and some of the OG RH projects.
The Mallard Order is coming to Robinhood. Go spread the word.
DISCLAIMER: image below is one of the first rough drafts, not our current final art. No dog shit AI was used, no fiverr art. This collection is not for those who settle for subpar work and low effort art.
The Mallard Order now turns its gaze toward @RobinhoodCrypto.
A new Trial awaits.
Those who seek to enter our ranks will first have to prove themselves worthy.
The path has been chosen.
Keep watch.

People say NFTs are dead, but collecting rare #MondayMeditations is still so satisfying. My grail set now starts, and ends, with a #000. Every book a 1:1. The only completely unique set that will ever exist.

People may shit on crypto…but today the mailman delivered a rare book that I first minted as an NFT. And I love it. ❤️🔥 @book_io
Today, the world lost a true original.
Dolly Parton gave us songs that will live forever, but her impact reached far beyond music. Through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, she placed hundreds of millions of books into the hands of children and helped generations discover the joy of reading.
The Stuff.io and Book.io team mourn her loss while celebrating the extraordinary life she lived and the joy, kindness, music and stories she shared with the world.
Thank you, Dolly, for always reminding us that songs and stories have the power to change lives. You will be deeply missed, but your legacy will live on forever. ❤️

If you clicked BUY, you should own it.
Not until a licensing agreement changes.
Not until a platform removes it.
Not until someone decides you can't access it anymore.
You bought it. It should be yours.
This is exactly why we exist.
We're building a future where digital movies, music, books and media can be actually owned, not temporarily accessed under someone else's rules.
The internet taught us to confuse access with ownership.
It's time to fix that.
Own your $STUFF.
Ich kaufe jetzt schon seit Jahren immer mal wieder Filme bei Apple, vor allem wenn sie gerade mal im Angebot sind. Ich dachte, dass ich mir die dann ja auch noch in ein paar Jahren immer wieder anschauen kann! Weit gefehlt!!!
Leider muss ich immer wieder feststellen, dass gekaufte Filme nicht mehr abrufbar sind! Es handelt sich um keinen Einzelfall! Es betrifft ungefähr 5% meiner Bibliothek!!!
Die Cover der Filme erscheinen zwar noch in der Bibliothek aber Apple bietet sie einfach nicht mehr an, obwohl ich sie nicht gemietet, sondern gekauft habe! Ich habe auf “KAUFEN” geklickt @AppleTV!
Kann es sein, dass ich eine andere Auffassung davon habe, was es bedeutet etwas zu kaufen??
Sowas ist echt unverschämt!!! Für mich ist das Betrug! Auch wenn das irgendwo versteckt in den AGB steht! Wenn ein gekaufter Film aus dem Streamingangebot genommen wird, sollte man automatisch den Kaufpreis erstatten!
Bitte teilt das, damit Apple antwortet!
