# LT3 #65 — "Water Your Garden"

**Host:** Superhighgasfees (@SHGFees) · **Date:** Fri 3 Jul 2026 · **Duration:** ~59 min · **Speakers:** 5 active (plus intro music)

## TL;DR
- A small, intentionally low-key daily LT3 Space themed on self-care — "watering your garden" — inspired by the day's LT3 art (robe = calm, flower headwear = a thriving ecosystem). [19:29]
- Host opened up about years of neglecting sleep as a two-job Uber driver + whitelist grinder, and how fixing his sleep schedule changed everything. [21:00]
- Real talk on diet: host is trying to cut soda/sugar and eat cleaner; MEGA shared a health condition (perforated bowel → diverticulitis) forcing dietary changes. [31:06]
- cearwylm delivered the standout self-care insight: "radical FOMO acceptance" and treating stress as information, not an automatic no. [40:22]
- Host recounted the emotional toll of over-degen trading — crying in his car over an Azuki/Elementals flip — as a cautionary tale against over-investing. [37:33]
- MEGA (@megacryptmic) launched his project's ("Alex") website today and bought an LT3; host invited him for a proper sit-down interview. [50:18]

## Highlights

**[8:36] Host explains the vibe.** He's traveling, visiting grandparents, setting Spaces up on short notice — so this one would be small and chill. Reflects on how unpredictable the Spaces algorithm has become.

**[11:25] Lightwork on the post-Nikita-Beer algo.** Lightwork (@Lightwork_1017)\* laments dead engagement despite big follower counts, praises host for grinding as a Space host, and says he's just buying NFTs to enjoy holding art and being in communities — "half of these communities are almost chopped in half." [13:31]

**[19:29] The topic drops.** Host frames "Water Your Garden" around self-care and learning to listen to what your body needs — admitting it's something he personally needs to air out.

**[21:00] The sleep confession.** Host describes running himself ragged with two jobs, whitelist grinding, and skating, sacrificing sleep until being tired felt normal. Now on a proper schedule, his body signals when something's off — a night-and-day difference.

**[31:06 / 32:31] MEGA gets real about health.** MEGA (@megacryptmic)\* shares he perforated his bowel three years ago, leading to diverticulitis, and has cut fizzy pop for ~7 months — sipping spring water while eyeing the soda fridge on hot days. A candid moment about the hard journey to healthier eating.

**[37:33] The Azuki crash-out.** Host recounts DGen trading around the Elementals drop — over-investing so heavily that "every decision feels like life or death," selling the moment Elementals was announced, and ending up "crying in the car." His verdict: it's not worth it.

**[40:22] cearwylm on radical FOMO acceptance.** cearwylm (@cearwylm)\* explains her biggest self-care lesson: learning to say no, accept missing out, and check in with her energy — making it an active decision rather than a burnout crash. Later reframes stress as valuable information that deserves a deeper look, not an automatic no. [46:22]

**[42:14] The mature "don't post" moment.** Host describes hovering over the post button on a project announcement (after "Adam" bought an LT3), then deciding with Jack that overthinking it meant they weren't ready — a notably "adult" decision.

**[50:18] MEGA's website launch + LT3 buy.** MEGA reveals he bought an LT3, chose one he vibed with over a higher-ranked grail, and launched his community's website today after weeks of making sure it was right. Host offers a future interview and reassures him it's fine to talk about his own project without it feeling "shilly." [53:00]

- "There was a point where I was crying in the car thinking about the whole thing." — Host [38:36]
- "I had to learn how to say no to things and just accept I'm going to miss out on stuff. Radical FOMO acceptance." — cearwylm (@cearwylm)\* [40:22]
- "Stress is information… it doesn't always mean no, it just means it deserves a deeper look." — cearwylm [46:22]
- "Wait till you get older. You wake up to pains that you don't have… you'd be like, yeah, I just went to bed and woke up. What the hell happened here?" — DaFameless (@DaFameless)\* [29:43]

## Who said what
- **Host — Superhighgasfees (@SHGFees):** Ran the Space solo (co-host "Show" hiking in Hawaii); led the self-care theme with personal stories on sleep, diet, and over-trading.
- **Lightwork (@Lightwork_1017)\*:** First-time speaker; on the broken algorithm, NFT-community love, and the value of the social/positivity angle.
- **MEGA.eth (@megacryptmic)\*:** New LT3 holder; shared a serious health condition, his no-junk-food journey, and his project's website launch — plus a philosophy of never shilling uninvited.
- **cearwylm (@cearwylm)\*:** Delivered the most quotable self-care framework — saying no, FOMO acceptance, and stress-as-information.
- **DaFameless (@DaFameless)\*:** ~40, married with kids; grounded, funny perspective on aging aches, six-hours-of-sleep life, and the No Credits Twitch stream.

## Worth a full listen
- **[37:33–39:55] The Azuki crash-out:** The host's rawest stretch — over-investing, the impossible buy/sell decision, and crying in the car. A genuinely vulnerable cautionary tale a summary flattens.
- **[40:22–47:50] cearwylm on saying no and stress:** A tightly-reasoned back-and-forth on FOMO acceptance and reading your own stress signals — worth hearing in full for the nuance.
- **[50:18–55:28] MEGA on shilling vs. genuine presence:** A thoughtful exchange about how to talk about your own project in others' communities without being pushy — relevant to anyone building in web3.
