RMXCEO (Co-Founder / CEO): this is wild

"Twitter is now Reddit moving at the speed of Tumblr. What goes viral here feels more like what goes viral everywhere else."

JOE THERRIEN KELLY(Community Manager): Speaking of Tumblr - am I the only one that still uses that site?… I recommend still using Tumblr. The hours I spend on there curating my little page are some of my most zen. Its one of the only “social media” sites that I use that feels wholly for me - I actually don’t think any of my real-life friends follow me on there and I actually prefer it that way.

BRANDON DEES (Transistor Choreographer): Son of Godzilla

so much silly string.

MADELINE BOUTON (Design Lead): revisiting terekke this week to encourage a little flow state. v nice for moments when ∘silence∘ feels too loud ˙ᵕ˙

JOHNNY DUNN (Geneva Community Member): ooh i been deep in a new mobile game

i had a really great/fun run with PokemonGo when it first came out -- it afforded me a good excuse to walk around outside but more importantly I got my 7 year old daughter into it and we've been playing pretty consistently for 4+ years

anyway -- the rec --- the same team (Niantic) put out a new version of the game, and its a fully licensed NBA experience. All the stars, all the teams -- and you walk around the world and have encounters with randomly placed NBA players, and if you beat them in a drill/mini-game.... they can join your team, and you can play as them... as you go on.

JOE: This is so cool! I’m going hunting for Jayson Tatum.

JOHNNY: from a gaming perspective, its really well made -- and slick. Fun music, its truly possible to play it casually for as much time as you have.

JOE: I’m in London this week so I want to recommend my favorite British comedian James Acaster. He did a three-part special that’s available on Netflix called Repertoire that to me personally is the best stand-up special I’ve ever seen!

He also has a really funny food-based interview podcast, where guests come on and share their dream meal. It’s very recommendation-core, so check that out as well. I’d suggest you start with the Joseph Quinn episode (Eddie from Stranger Things). He’s got one of the best menus I’ve ever heard and I think I would order exactly the same thing.

Finally, I wanna recommend Monster Munch. Delicious cute little corn puff chips (crisps?) shaped like monster hands (or feet?). I know something foot-shaped that tastes like “Pickled Onion” sounds nasty but you just gotta trust me on this one.
