RIP to the Nouns Discord. ☠️ It’s a good reminder to let people know that the Lil Nouns Discord can be a space to build community and talk about how to proliferate the meme! ⌐◨-◨
Also, worth noting that our Discord is not token-gated — so whether you’re a (Lil Noun) token-holder or not, we should encourage more people to join our Discord…while it’s here! 🙃

Here’s what we cover in this week’s post:
→ #lil-thanks Channel
→ LilNounsMetrics.com
→ Current Proposals
→ Prop House: Round 10 is Open for (Spooky) Submissions
→ Around the Lil Community
→ Events
[Reminder: if there is something that is a lil nounish that you’d like featured in an upcoming newsletter post, drop a line in the #newsletter-channel in the Lil Nouns Discord!]
Alright, let’s dive in.
→ #lil-thanks Channel
There were two traits that initially attracted me to the Lil Nouns community. One was that everyone seemed so curious — to build, explore, and figure things out in this emerging new world. The other trait was that the vast majority of folks in the community were genuinely kind.
This week, I was reminded of this kindness when I saw a new channel pop up in Discord: #lil-thanks. It’s a subtle but important piece of this lil corner of web3 that I’m very proud to be a part of. Reading through this channel brightens my day. I highly recommend you spend some time reading through the interactions of gratitude. And if someone has helped you recently, consider dropping a lil thank you in the channel.
I hope we continue to be curious and kind as a community.

The Lil Nouns Data Pod has been a longstanding experiment that continues to evolve and improve over time.
The mission of Data Pod is to organize Nounish information, to make it accessible, insightful, and useful. Adding more transparency and digesting data that sometimes is harder to reach.
The Lil Nouns Data Pod is now on Twitter and they have some special updates. Give them a follow and read their most recent Twitter thread here:
One big update: you can now check out all of their incredible work at lilnounsmetrics.com.
→ Current Proposals
Slow week this week for Proposals.
The only Proposal on-chain was from yours truly. And can you believe it?! We did it fam! Third-time was a charm — we got the newsletter prop passed and executed. Thank you! From the bottom of my (Saturn-shaped) heart.
It’s fun to go back and read through past proposals that have been put on-chain. Flick through them at some point this week: Past Proposals.
And join the conversations for potential future Proposals (we have some epic ideas in the works right now!) –
→ Prop House: Round 10 is Open for (Spooky) Submissions

Halloween theme is not necessary. but we all love a good Lil SCARE!
