GM 🌞 just sitting outside with my coffee thinking about how I should def add another video to my Tiny Castle TikTok series about the story of St Barbara that is wild. It is not lost on me that the only reason I haven’t told this story on TikTok is that I don’t want to get a violent content warning. 😅 Basically St Barbara created a healing device while her father was gone on some crusade. When he got back he accused her of heresy and “tested” her healing device by publicly torturing her and then telling her to heal herself.

Then there’s this whole weird part where she runs away and the mountains swallow her and hide her, but eventually the father finds her and beheads her. Later she was canonized because the French insisted she performed 13 healing miracles in the name of Christ. But then she was removed in 1969 from the calendar of saintly celebrations.

The weirdest part to me is the second largest work of masonry in the world - the fortress of Fenestrelle- has a pyramid on site that bears the inscription: Saint Barbara. I’m sure it’s a coincidence. 😉 Have a good day yall.

“but but if you get it done juuuuust right it’s great!”

I prefer food that does not require perfection in prep and execution in order to be edible.

these may be fighting words, but I explicitly said I’m starting fights today.

Has social media been a net positive or a net negative in your life?

I agree with this. Gnocchi is such a simple recepy but because of that is so complicated to make the perfect texture.. a lot of things influences, not only quantities, as the kind of flour, the water temperature, how you mix it and for how long.. also the potatoes.. I mean, a lot is there.

since there’s no drama on here I’m gonna start some shit and say that quite honestly gnocchi is terrible and you might as well eat erasers.

The airgap is important because you don't know for 100% certainty what might be transferred from hardware device to a networked computer (or vice versa) without your knowledge. The hardware device holds your keys. Why directly connect that to the internet when you don't need to?

GM 🌞☕️ just a little note from the ol noggin: procrastination for me sometimes arrives as a little liar saying “you don’t have enough” - usually in regards to time but also in terms of energy.

I have found the most effective way to counter this little voice is to reply: maybe I don’t have enough to finish, but I have enough to start, and I will do my best with the time/energy that I do have.

And then half the time I get hyper-focused after the first five minutes and BAM! I did have enough time and enough energy. 😎🤙 Hope this helps a fellow procrastinator.

Content creators are just social media super-users. They put the media into social media. The ones that rise in the ranks in terms of audience and reach on different platforms has depended largely on the platforms themselves (until nostr).

Think about how the different platforms have “created” different kinds of influencers and how their audiences really don’t cross-pollinate very well unless they’re a pretty big celebrity. There are a ton of Instagram mommy bloggers who have zero following on TikTok. That’s because Mark Zuckerberg designed Instagram to boost posts with smiling faces, and TikTok doesn’t. So some of these influencer trends are manufactured by the platforms themselves for their own gain and that has created specific influencer cultures on each platform.

Here on Nostr creators are directly incentivized and don’t have to fit into some mold or say only the right things to be monetized for the media they create. The content creators that start building an audience here will naturally have a different, less competitive culture.
