Apparently, people talk about NIPS a lot on Nostr. 🤭

Th Amethyst store sucks. It does nothing to promote listings. As do most BTC stores. You can list dirty socks next to art. They could start a bot profile that randomly shares good listings, but no, that's too much. Table flip.

You can do both. I dare you to take a photo of your own ass that people WANT to see, and pay for.

Worrisome thoughts, by Velvet Blue. 🔵 ---------------- The more technical that Bitcoin gets, or more layers that obfuscate it makes it harder for the general public to understand or adopt it. It's entirely possible that only a few will use it and decend into Oligarchy. This thought is totally depressing.

A violinist played for 45 minutes in the New York subway. A handful of people stopped, a couple clapped, and the violinist raised about $30 in tips. No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world. In that subway, Joshua played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. Two days before he played in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out a Boston theatre, and the seats averaged about $100. The experiment proved that the extraordinary in an ordinary environment does not shine and is so often overlooked and undervalued. There are brilliantly talented people everywhere who aren't receiving the recognition and reward they deserve. But once they arm themselves with value and confidence and remove themselves from an environment that isn’t serving them, they thrive and grow. Your gut is telling you something. Listen to it if it's telling you where you are isn't enough! Go where you are appreciated and valued. Know Your Worth. ❤️

Twitter has devolved into a Conservative right wing, and liberal far left wing echo chamber of political slaves and statist minded fools. Worshiping a politician because TV news told you to must be all the fun you get.

Art is a reflection of LIFE. #Art #Artster #poetry Alienated End-user, by Velvet Blue In a realm of wires and circuits, I dwell, Trapped in this technological hell. My mind, a hammer, against the cage, Pounding, exclaiming, in futile rage. Bytes and bits, they mock my sight, A labyrinth of darkness, devoid of light. Each click, each buzz, a maddening sound, As I'm shackled to this digital ground. I scream in defiance, a primal roar, But the machine's grasp tightens even more. Its language, a cryptic, alien tongue, Leaving me shattered, frayed, and undone. I tear at the cords, my fury unleashed, But they bind me tighter, never to be ceased. With every failed attempt, my anger swells, In this inferno of zeros and ones, I dwell. My fists, they strike against the screen, A futile gesture, a futile dream. For I am but a prisoner, a slave, In this techno-dungeon, my soul is depraved. So let my screams echo through the wires, A symphony of wrath, fueled by ire. For I Neuro-Divergent I refuse to yield, Even as I'm crushed by this digital field.

I'm just going to come out and say this. Woocommerce tutorials suck. Even with using them, I can not figure out how to set up my shopping site. Please don't feed me tutorials that you think are simple, I'm neuro-divergent and can not follow them. I have sincerely tried. I'm going to be homeless if I can't create income and sell my goods. That's not hyperbole. I need help, have been offered help, and still can't connect with anyone that will help. (╯°,□°,）╯ ┻━┻ ︵

Happy Mother's Day Weekend, All! This goes out to all the fine mommas out there. 🤭
