I bought one of the first affordable Atari. Learned programming on it. I was already working for Rich's (now Macys-same parent company). Rich's bought Lazerus. They inherited a computer graphics station with no one knowing how to operate it. I was in a nice temperature controlled cool room. My boss was in charge of it. I walked in with confidence and asked him if I could flick to power switch on. Unix splashed across the screen. GULP! I read up on Unix. I learned to type, "RUN". Whole cluster fucknof machines lit up and made a shitload of noises. I sat down to drew with a digital pen. Later, president of Rich's(Macy's) advertising/marketing was impressed and told my boss not to give me any workloads and let me play with this Unix paradise. I told what I had and some said theres only two 18 inch LaserWriter of that type in Atlanta. I had one of them. Later, big guys signed off purchasing Macintoshes for 80 advertising workers. Every year, I got the newest one and others got my later ones. Trump and my boss were buddies. Boss was seen in Apprentice Show. Trump misbehaved and boss told him to take Trump products to leave Macy's. I did retouching on some of his products. 2008 Wallstreet crash! Macy's closed Southeast divisions. I got Nicky laid off. Refused New York opportunities. Now I here on Nostr (may know better on Usenets) with 44 cents. I still do #ART ! I invented #paintwithdow with the latest on #nostr. I hope to grow on Nostr but I need Zaps to mint my art and teach how I did my art on #decentralized socials. I already lost much on discontinued centralized networks. Lord help me! Now I'm off to finish my new art movement (modern #fauve to compete with AI art) only to be shared on Nostr is possible.

Is it possible? (we had a "YES!" movement in Macys marketing. It worked really well)
