#[4]​ created a gpt3 bot and I asked it to write me a joke about #nostr (Q: what do you call a nosy ostrich? … A: a Nostrich!). Classic kinda lame AI joke, but I loved the idea of the Nostrich…

I played on Midjourney & chose purple because Damus was already purple (and orange is already Bitcoin).

Will proposed it as the official mascot, then #[6]​ tweeted the photo out and it stuck.
