🤔 More steps to get away from normie social media aka likes? I still want zaps and reposting, but definitely much cleaner view.
Before: "Oh man I can't wait to see what's on my Nostr feed today!"
After: "*~laser eyes~* I KNOW WHAT MUST BE DONE"
(zapzapzapzapzap)
Bread and circuses
Just listened to nostr:npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc talk about how non devs can contribute to Nostr... 🤔
I will remain patient and continue to shitpost.

what is this new “the cake is a lie” meme

The cake is ~not~ a lie.
GladOS tasted it herself.
STILL ALIVE!!!!
The Bible is as reliable as a Wikipedia page that's been translated multiple times.
Witch hunting became an industry that fed the judges and inquisitors. Witches were blamed for the weather, for mishaps, and tortured without due diligence on anyone's word, even children and felons who could not normally testify. Accomplices were named through torture. Where there was no torture, there were no witches. When they could not seize the witch's assets, there were no witches.
The witches were a group, an army, preventing God's grace. If only we could kill enough witches, earthquakes and killing frosts might not happen.
Pretty interesting. Just a little bit of "The Encyclopedia of Witchcraft and Demonology" by Rossell Hope Robbins.
Stop pretending everything is gonna be OK.
I am honestly scared. What's gonna happen when Gen Z takes the reins? 10% of us ain't even literate! The doomers and their children, for sure. The apathetic losers and memelords of the apocalypse.
Maybe it's not that bad. But it's still pretty bad.
"Why should I do it?"
"More importantly, why aren't you doing it?"
Where do I go to get my registered "Nazi Offender" badge?
Nostrasia Edward Snowden notes No. 2
Can we fight it, can we raise awareness, if not can we create new jurisdictions online in our own space. Infrastructure based on other people's stuff isn't secure.
Chinese and U.S. everything apps to contain your life for government review. Nostrverse is a human-based alternative with
infinite variety in apps and clients.
People don't control their own lightning, kinda defeats the point.
Facebook etc. servers were funded, we need to fund them. Avoid monetization and the Twitter points of failure that led to ads and enshittification.
Too much dependence on specific relays that then fold or force everyone to use the same relay.
We need to get new users recognized (they have no followers). Shoutouts?
Nostr isn't ready for a big rush. Get onboarding and everything figured out first. "make it easy, make it friendly, call out what's interesting about nostr"
block lists and follow lists and trending people etc. to help new users out.
agitate. Free Assange. They could, but they don't.
reading suggestions:
discourses on voluntary servitude
the wealth of nations
Teach how the internet/technology/phones works
We want to make it accessible to the non-specialists. Not a religion for the techpriests but accessible to all.
Nostrasia Edward Snowden notes #1
"everybody is shouting and noone is listening"
small community is better.
"government is done to us". They don't want pushback. Comfortable silence, "we'll fix the problems if you let us".
The point of democracy is that we can debate.
average people (gross) don't have a huge desire to understand and use security. npubs and nsecs are meaningless to people used to usernames.
adversaries are studying us like we're studying them.
"authoritarian center of gravity" governments move towards using emergencies to violate civil rights.
The NOSTRVERSE of Nostr clients and apps. Infinite possibilities and configurations. Make it happen!!!
Watching nostrasia. Yeah, people tend to see bitcoin and company as a ponzi scheme, where the rest of us who believe see it as something that gets more valuable when more people invest in it and use it, which is really true of anything.
It feels like there was a preemptive smear campaign against the future. There are no coincidences around timelords lol. It feels like things turn out *too* well for them sometimes.
It seems like predominantly guys transition. Gotta make up for your original white sin. I'm sorry, but I don't want to be uncomfortable in my own skin anymore. Call it white pride if you want.
I'm not really a rebel. I'm just so tired of all the bullshit that I don't go along with it anymore.
You have to break the mirror a little bit at a time to undo the spell. The littlest steps in the timeline can have the biggest impacts.
