Not much has changed since JFK, MLK, RFK. Same actors - same playbook.

I agree 💯 Bird-app feels dark and ominous. Nostr is lighter but still poignant.

... and that's exactly what it was meant to envoke. As the system collapses, things are going to get crazier. Pulling us from the energy of love toward hatred, fear and desperation. Now more than ever, we need to stay together not pull apart. What a horrific few days. I pray for us.

Yeah - but hey we've got safe spaces, how about ball sunning plazas where anyone who is easily offended can avoid? I guess that's called a nude beach... oh well a guy dream 🌞⚽🏀

Yes, there is that trade off and the dopamine hit is the price to pay. Hopefully people can wean off that false high that mimics excitotoxin.

As someone who has played professionally, worked 6 nights a week and could stay on the road without playing the same club for 6 months, I see the problem as being with the past 2 generations of music listeners. It began when high school dances opted for a V-Jay over a live band. Kids never got the experience of what it took to play a live performance. This started the decline in the first of the two generations. The 2nd have never known music to be anything other than digital. A song is something you can flip in and out of. There's no flow of a recording from track 1 to 10 The "industry" consolidated and a writing team was hired to create a 13 week sensation. Pump then dump. The songs, the affected vocals all homogenized. Now 40 years of listening has been boiled down to a Tick Tok ear worm. Spotify is evil no doubt but at the same time, they've no sophistication to serve. AI tunes, bubble butts and gansta lyrics are what the instant gratification crowd seeks. That said: 1000 true fans built through protocols like Nostr and Bitcoin will help musicians .find an appreciative audience. Those who slipped through the cracks and ended up with taste and a discerning ear. I'm all in favor of building this and throw my love of music and technical passion behind it LFG!!! 🔥

You probably stirred a will in the passerby, who has a longing to "chest feed". Seeing you without a shirt triggered "their" personal lament. Could you imagine if you were sunning your balls...? 😬

Noice!

playbook.

The chart only goes parabolic in the mid 90s... I blame "Grunge" Now do gay frogs. For me, it's individuals longing for attention. Piercings went to an extreme. When an individual no longer stood out in the pierced crowd, body mods began. Tattoos went from body parts to the face untill that was no longer extreme enough to stand out. The trend to change gender is no different. Stand out from the crowd by changing your sex but as with all trends, they run their course. Piercings can kind of heal over. Tattoos are a more permanent reminder of one's choices but artificially altering hormones, puberty blockers and adding or removing body parts, "that's gonna leave a mark". Mostly in a cry for acceptance and belonging. In my opinion this is a result of programming. Media, schools, socials... Stupid impetuous humans.

While we're on the subject... did the drones get it right? I always thought it was infinity over 21. Got me thinking, is 21m Bitcoin divided by infinity fiat or should it be infinite fiat divided by 21m Bitcoin? Using the parlance 21 goes into infinity or vice versa #asknostr

hmmm relay conflict? Just responded to DM test
