    I will preface this by saying the production quality of the videos look very clean and this team is doing well by just going for it. I am casting against in this case for a few reasons, in no particular order: - Promoting financialized community to kids makes me feel weird. Not fault of team in this case. Just my gut reaction. I dont sense Nouns has matured its mission and who it is pitching to and should be careful before approaching kids. - I appreciate that this was put into discourse forum. I still would like to see more temperature check and confirmation of DAO interest before this hits chain for a large sum of 60k. I would support a smaller sum to retro reward the content creation in this case. *sent from voter.wtf*

    While IRL events for Nouns are worth exploring to strengthen brand and create content (more members, more capital, better outcomes), a better start would be deploying capital to help host side events at existing etherish conferences. This will help coordination costs for people and cross-pollinate Nouns culture. Also, I generally just think these IRL things are hard to verify for value-add and should be discouraged for always-online communities like DAOs. *sent from voter.wtf*

    The work by ultra sound relay is to be applauded. It was bold and critical work at the right time to matter. I am voting `Against` however because I think in context of the large requested sum of `100 ETH`, Nouns DAO should normalize going though Discourse discussion process to flesh things out, as per the docs. This will encourage thoughtful applications of capital, esp. where the proposed funding seems more remotely related to Nouns` brand and purpose. Further, given the grant already given to Protocol Guild (500 ETH), this would seem to overlap and open Nouns up to many such requests on top of its existing, demonstrated commitment to ETH protocol support and public goods. Nouns should insulate itself from political and legal risk through things like PG curation. All this being said, 100 ETH seems fair to cover dev support for next year, as the 10 ETH monthly donation team already has can cover stated infra costs.
