Great power is worry, and total power is boredom, such that even God renounces it and pretends, instead, that he is people and fish and insects and plants: the myth of the king who goes wandering among his subjects in disguise. Alan W. Watts

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend. I've had some quality time with the family at my parents, seen some of my brothers, sisters, nephews, and nieces. It's nice to disconnect from the internet and phone for a bit even if everyone else was glued to them. 🤣😂

New record of time spent on #Amethyst #Nostr Think it's time for me to sign-off and chill out before bed.

The KLF ft. Tammy Wynette - Justified And Ancient

Have you ever heard the story about the British music duo who burned £1 million? The KLF, also known as The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, was a British electronic music duo formed by Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty in the late 1980s. They were known for their eccentric and often controversial antics. In 1994, The KLF announced their retirement from the music industry. As a part of their departure, they decided to burn one million pounds sterling (equivalent to roughly 1.5 million US dollars at the time) in cash. The act of burning such a large sum of money was intended to provoke a reaction and make a statement about the value of money and the music industry itself. On August 23, 1994, Drummond and Cauty, accompanied by a film crew, traveled to the island of Jura in Scotland and set up a bonfire using a mixture of banknotes and kindling. The act of burning the money sparked significant controversy and debate. Many people criticized The KLF, accusing them of wastefulness and insensitivity to those in need. Others saw it as a bold artistic statement challenging the conventions of wealth and capitalism. Drummond and Cauty never fully explained their motives for burning the money, leaving it open to interpretation. They insisted that it was a genuine act and not a hoax or publicity stunt. Since then, the burning of a million pounds has become a notorious event in popular culture, often referenced in discussions about art, money, and the value of creative work.

We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be. May Sarton #quotes

A bitcoin supermarket/grocery store/hello fresh would be a game changer because I'd imagine in the space of a decade the satoshi value for items would decrease significantly, not increase significantly like it does with fiat currency.

I think I've already spent more time on Nostr today than yesterday and it's only 8am #Nostrich

Wanted to give this a go see if it worked.

Welcome Welcome to the Nostrich Art Cafe!

This is the most I've ever used an app.

Near the end of the video Russell Brand talks with Jim Caviezel and Tim Ballard about Sound Of Freedom. Interesting discussion. https://rumble.com/v2zs6hy-sound-of-freedom-they-dont-want-you-to-watch-this-with-jim-c-167-stay-free-.html

Every living being is born with the innate quality to adapt and overcome. Most of the times it's our judgements that fail to upgrade with the paradigm shift. We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. Maya Angelou

Hey @Cyborg can you tell me a funny joke?

I'm getting obsessed with the idiom, 'It's not a bug it's a feaure' when explaining centralised powers.

This is super interesting, if you're on this app. You'll most likely find this useful.
