Interesting 🤔 well I was just thinking about how the quality of replies is so much better here because it’s the only place I know of where people can tip/zap replies. What if we could zap relays directly. Like maybe a relay sends out a report or something as a note and then we can zap them directly? Idk

Right. I keep wondering if the next step is to incentivize relay-starters somehow. I know some folks are already doing subscription models but maybe there are other ways to make monetization more accessible to them. Just thinking out loud

Welp… oops I guess? #nostr 😅

I’m a tech nerd in general - my specialty is social media, but I’ve been keeping an eye on web3 stuff for a while too.

Had to re-read that last sentence in my pirate voice. 😜🏴‍☠️ here’s some blackbeardesque encouragement: yarrr can do it! We believe in yo-ho!

Yes I like the idea of that too. I used to use private Twitter lists to accomplish that to some extent

Technically speaking… if the O stands for Other then shouldn’t it be pronounced “NUSTER”? 😈 #nostr

If yall wanted me to pronounce it “nawstur” then ya should’ve used a breve > ŏ 😉

Nos tr 😁

P.s. that’s my nickname for ol Musky. You know so his little groupies don’t come for me

I def think it was Elmo 🤣

Yep it’s illustrating the reason I made the video in the first place 😅

I gotta admit I didn’t expect that vid to be my first ever report 😅

🤣

GM 🌞 Somebody reported my TikTok vid about #Nostr as “branded content”… what does that even mean? 😅

Wow! Interesting

Is this real?! 🤣 what a day

🤣🤣🤣

This guy 🤣

In studying for my lesson on gentleness, I listened to a lecture on how all violence stems from immaturity, brutishness, crudeness, and childishness. I never quite thought about that before, but it makes sense.

When emotionally immature parents strike their children, those children learn subconsciously that violence is both acceptable and necessary to prove one’s strength and authority. When these children grow into emotionally immature adults, they enforce control through perpetuating the cycle of violence.

Gentle parenting has sprung up to counter this idea, but I think at first, we didn’t really know how to do gentle parenting without being a bunch of pushovers 😅 now that we’ve continued to develop these skills and methods, we have become better at holding other people (including, but not limited to, our own kids) accountable without attempting to control them through brute force. Gentle parenting hinges around the idea of encountering a child’s immature, crude, and violent tendencies with empathy but also firm correction, role modeling, and training.

Gentleness is not softness. Meekness is not weakness. It’s not passivity. It’s not submission.

It’s knowing when to YIELD… knowing how to hold back your own strength and force… understanding how to be careful with others.

This applies both to the micro and the macro…
