Hearing rumors that Musk's Twitter is trying to stop users from getting Bluesky invites… so I got a backup plan.

If you're looking for an invite code, just message me on SimpleX, and I'll get back to you once I one available.

"Oh lordy, my trouble so hard

Oh lordy, my trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God"

Seriously, this song never gets old.

Never say never...

While recording Dire Straits' fourth album "Love Over Gold", frontman Mark Knopfler wrote "Private Dancer", which he eventually submitted to Tina Turner… It became one of her biggest hits.

Rest in peace.

The month of rainbow capitalism is soon upon us.

How much will mega rich corporations virtue signal this year?

FUN QUESTION TIME:

If you all of a sudden 150 million sats, what would you spend it on?

P.S. You can't say that you'd stack it. 😋

Pura Vida! It's been a while since I logged on here.

How's the Nostrich-gang doing?!

I'm sure glad I have a free checkmark on #Nostr, that I never had to pay for, unlike on the bird app…

Damn, that's funny. GG, Damus.

Alright, fun question time, cause I'm bored…

How many sats would you be willing to pay for a beer at the pub?

No answer is the wrong answer…

Except the ridiculously expensive ones. Do better stuff with your sats than get drunk, comrade.

How does he do it?! How does he fucking do it?!

It's dumbfounding!

Pura Vida! Spring is here! Go outside! Have fun and… do whatever. ☀️✌️

Starting this or next week, I'll be handing out invite codes for Bluesky, to certain people. To those I got respect for, as well as those who are kind enough to request one.

So be on the lookout, either on my Twitter, Mastodon or Nostr!

Too many people have given Elon a pass. Don't give him a pass.

He's a marketer, not a founder or an engineer. He didn't found PayPal or Tesla; he bought into them early. He's good at selling narratives and equity valuation for perpetually unprofitable companies.

Everything for him is a narrative. His green revolution was a narrative to sell more cars and get more subsidies. His bitcoin purchase was to gain appeal among bitcoin/crypto people in a bull market. And he shilled doge like a dumbass. His SpaceX narrative is to get money from the government.

His rooftop solar thing was an outright scam; the technology isn't ready and went nowhere because of that. His full-self-driving-in-an-intermediate-term timeline was a scam, and is going nowhere because of that. He makes scams to draw people and capital in, because for him it's all about narratives and equity valuation.

And then he dug unproductive holes, suggested unproductive hyper-tubes, built meme flamethrowers, for what? It's a narrative, not a business. None of this is real productive shit to make peoples' lives better.

His latest "we need free speech" narrative was a scam too. He tapped into something real, which is what marketers do and why it kind of worked. Yes, we need free speech. Yes, Twitter had censorship issues. He saw that and jumped on it maliciously rather than productively.

But what did he replace it with? He replaced it with arbitrary journalist censorship about his private jet, arbitrary censorship of Substack, selective Twitter Files release, won't talk seriously about any of his China connections because Xi Jinping fucking owns him economically there like Jack Ma, has his balls firmly in his grasp, etc.

Elon's playing the narrative, the anti-woke meme of the day. He's a master meme-momentum-player. Don't fall for it.

Hello? Officer... Yes, I'd like to report a complete annihilation.

Happy easter, to all of your nostriches! Have a nice weekend! 🐣

So weak

Weakling Elon Musk vs. Strongman Nostrich. Who would win?

On the bird app, your Substack articles are a waste of time, and you should just keep your opinions for yourself.

On Nostr, we all are curious about what you just posted on Substack, and want to read it, so please share it with us.

Which place is the most wholesome again?
