Money is a tool– think about your relationship with money. Do you wield money as a tool, or do others wield money as a tool to use you?

the best usecase for cryptocurrency was and continues to be being able to pay for things without a bureaucrat standing in your way going "no"

i'll probably catch some flak for this, but utility bills have gotten so out of control that i've started turning off the burners on my stovetop before i leave the house. it saves a lot of money! i don't need them to be on when i'm not there! i don't know what else to tell you

a work of art is a creature that wants to destroy you and replace you with something else. it is in your interest that you allow this to happen, sometimes
counterpoint: it is good and correct to view engaging with a piece of art as an act of consumption. you just have it backwards. *you* are the thing being consumed
Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice.
Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT."
IT IS ART.
YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

Market dynamics and consumer attitudes need to change. "AI" is too much of a monolith. I'm planning an Act I scene that will improve competition between models by featuring many open-source models and "fine-tunes"- open source has moved onto multi-stage process with multiple techniques including DOO

AI is a social phenomenon. Every user, every lab, every socialite online and offline, has their hand on the ouija cursor of what humans perceive and expect from AI.
I'm tired. I don't want to argue about the cursor. I want to create a new cursor.

I accept Bitcoin, Ethereum network assets, and Monero.
Monero is private for both the sender, the receiver, and the amount (redeem via Kraken)
Ethereum has USDC which is a piece of cake (redeem via Coinbase, try Base or Arbitrum)
You should try accepting one of these too!

all these visa/mastercard-mediated censorship debacles just show that the highest priority of anyone who holds freedom of transaction dear should've been to make crypto a useable alternative that normal companies will accept
