What does it mean to proliferate ⌐◨-◨?

To me it means sharing the art, the tech and the ethos with as many as possible. That's why this clothing line wants to appeal to all kinds of people and organically introduce them to all things nounish.

Check out the product page and cart views, read the brand statement and the full brand guide we created: https://d1ygpk-es.myshopify.com (password: flows; ordering not enabled yet).

Check the site as it's being updated and share your thoughts on design, branding, UX or strategy. At flows we like to build in public and in real time, so expect more frequent updates too!

What's next:
💳 Receiving KYC approval to process fiat and crypto payments in Ethereum, Base, Optimism and Solana
🧧 Setting up exclusive collections for @nouns-dao, @lilnouns, @gnars & Yellow Collective token holders
📦 Placing test orders to proofcheck the whole process from order to delivery
🛒 Publishing first batch of products and making the site public
🌎 Languages, domain, SEO
A week after publicly picking up cigarette butts at the park, the local gov installed 19 of these. The community has picked up 2250 butts this week alone!

Part of my flow goals was to create awareness and promote changes like this even if I don't work with the gov directly. What change can we inspire next? ⌐◨-◨
A few new books for the public park📚

These are from a campaign called “Let’s Better Costa Rica” and they’re like a self-guided course with daily activities on responsibility and self-esteem for young people.

Can you think of incentives for people to actually pick them up if they see them at the park? 🤔
On the way home from the /flows cleanup I met this good boy. I didn’t have the kibble on me but I’m thinking about leaving the compostable bowls in secure spots that they can access 🤔

As you can see there’s also a bunch of trash where he was looking for food. Next time I will clean that up too.
The toughest part of yesterday’s cleanup was picking up one by one what felt like hundreds of cigarette butts around this bench.

These guys can take up to 14 years to decompose and pose a real threat to animals.

Based on your feedback, I found a supplier with these benefits:

👕 100% vegan, natural, biodegradable, and organic fabrics
👗 Materials are Forest Stewardship Council certified
👔 Every piece is cut-and-sown from scratch instead of printed on a pre-made garment
👖 All garments are made locally in the UK
🧥 Water usage is minimized and ink waste is responsibly disposed of
🛍️ Fabric remnants are given away to crafters to reduce waste
👚 You can send back t-shirts to recycle and receive a 15% discount
👟 Fast global delivery with online tracking and customer support for your orders

This does come at a higher cost and the end product would be more expensive than standard cotton/poly blends. The prices and finish would be very similar to the DOPAMINE x NOUNS collection (pictured below), which are also made from cotton: https://shop.nouns.gg/

Before jumping the gun I want to hear your thoughts—are you on board with prices like these to support sustainable practices and values?
Does anyone know of an affordable place to stay in Arizona? Would be my first time traveling to the US and I'm a bit overwhelmed.
What do you value the most when buying clothes? The look of the design? The comfiness of the fabric? The environmental impact? The price?

I'd like to hear your thoughts so that the end products are aligned with the community ⌐◨-◨7
This week’s trash on its way to the waste deposit.

With the help of /flows we want to keep our community clean and safe for both humans and animals.
Decided to invest in a few of these compostable bowls to replace the cheaper plastic ones we were using. Keeping vrbs regen 🌱

Reminder for people who are keeping up with /flows
Thanks to /vrbs local impact grants we stay stacked with kibble to distribute to doggos in need.
Got inspired by @vitalik.eth wearing the golden noggles and I just could get left behind ⌐◨-◨🌟 thanks @ccarella for giving us this moment

@seneca
Not a dog, but some workers came across this little guy who looked pretty ill. We helped them take him to the vet for inspection and basic meds and now they’re keeping him as their workplace pet 🐱💚
This boy was probably hit by a car and needed to be taken to the vet for urgent care.
If you've never been to an official competition, this is what they look like. We want to make Lil Nouns a core part of the community's identity ⌐◨-◨
Looking around Vrbs' growth metrics and finding out that Costa Rica has almost as many visitors as the UK was such a surprise! Not bad for a country that's barely web3 aware.

Amazing to see Brazil and many Asian countries making the ranks too 💚
We keep running into Frank Buddy and he’s still very shy with people.

We noticed his collar is worn out and the fur around it really dirty. His previous owners either lost him or abandoned him.

This little guy was roaming around at night but was too afraid to get close, so I put the food in the spot he was resting at and gave him distance space so he could eat it calmly. He left a little a then ran away.

He also had a collar on so I’ll ask around the neighborhood if somebody knows the owners.

For now, Vrbs is taking care of his dinner, so what would you name him?
For transparency's sake: I wasn't able to do the dog food trip last week, so I will pick it up this week and post the updates.

1st week we will try to feed around 10 different stray dogs with around 4 cups of food. Will adjust depending on funds/food/dogs.

Updates here and on https://vrbs.build/vrbs/users/valesol01
Some of the strays still have a hard time trusting people and they run away even when we bring them food. We hope that they can learn to trust humans again 🥺
Thanks to @rocketman and all of /vrbs we will be able to keep feeding more of these good boys around the neighborhood 🐶❤️

How would you name this handsome fella?
I just minted a photo on Moshicam! 📸
