eatthecake, they clearly need you on the marketing team, stat.

+1 here, friend. Spread the word.

👍 Yep, it's sad. I can protect them along with the help of my family, friends and community. If not, I will admit failure and live with the consequences. But it's up to me to grow up and build skills and learn patience and responsibility, not the job of others.

Parents need to get back to parenting instead of absolving themselves of what they see as a pesky responsibility of raising the children they produce and putting their lives and impressionable minds in the hands of others, then wondering what went wrong 20-some years on and blaming everyone but themselves.

Decentralize and make it all permissionless. These self-proclaimed authorities and standards organizations are nothing but state-controlled gatekeepers holding the internet back from its true potential.

Dear Meta: 🖕

Anyone got a line on a good cabin? Tell the realtor not to call or text me though. I'll only be responding via telegram (not THAT Telegram, dummy) delivered by horse and rider.

🤣

Price action has been weird and volatile again lately after a slow and steady grind down. Seems like something is brewing.

What a sham market we have.

Potempkin market.

You know what, I amend that. It's a sham world. When are we collectively going to band together and pull back the curtain on The Great and Powerful Oz?

Hopefully soon. Glad to be standing shoulder to shoulder with you all here pushing for that reveal. 👊

Nice. I support any attempt to get the truth out there and educate people with it.

However, I'd be prepared for some strong resistance if you are going against the legacy media narratives and wouldn't hold too much hope, though I do very much respect the effort and thank you for it all the same.

Wikipedia, in my opinion, is a full-blown propaganda tool of the regime(s) and powers that be at this point and I question what I read there today more than I ever have.

I agree with you and it's an important distinction. But for me it's also about the ethos of the developers or company. Promoting free and open source tools is great, but requiring the opposite as a prerequisite to use the largest publicly facing implementation of that is a very odd decision.
