@inthehands@hachyderm.ioA lot of their strategies are like spammers and phishers: they’re kind of stupid, they’re kind of lazy, but they just spend all day trying — and they only have to catch somebody off guard once. And so while they lazy it up, we have to remain in a state of ceaseless vigilance…because as we all know from phishing scams, everybody slips up eventually.
@pre@boing.worldDay two introduced again by Mad bitcoins .
Then the history of art on bitcoin includes satoshi and his original logo, ASCII art in the Blockchain, Cassius coins with scratch off keys, these pictured images of fake satoshi and 200 logos.
Exploded from there, trading cards, the rare Pepe's.
What makes it bitcoin art?
Symbology. The logo. Religious symbology. Is it a cult?
Memes. Memes catch and go in a fashion which is unpredictable and fits the whole history to a timeline.
Art builds culture and heros proliferate bitcoin culture for all.
Art traditionally goes up in value but none of it seems to outpace bitcoin itself.
Some is for sale in the gallery but it'll unlikely be a better but then 30 percent discount bitcoin today 😆

@inthehands@hachyderm.ioPer replies, something I need to clarify:
We often use the word “neurotypical” to mean “neither autistic nor ADHD.” That might be useful as a shorthand, I guess, but it’s that mode of thought I’m specifically arguing against here: creating a single catch-all category defined as a negative, calling it “normal,” and assuming that it fits most people.
That doesn’t stand up to empirical scrutiny, and I don’t think it’s particularly healthy or helpful.

@cdarwin@c.imThere’s an unwritten rule in publishing,
or so I’ve been told:
don’t write about COVID.
Our collective attention span has been saturated by those endless months holed up in attics and cramped corners of apartments, staring out at a world we could no longer take part in.
When the worst of it passed, we felt an urge to close that chapter, to padlock it behind a heavy latch.
But in doing so, we also tuck away the hard-won lessons of that time:

@davidaugust@mastodon.onlineI wrote a story. It starts:
He woke up, looking forward to finally fishing. He’s retired, even though he feels like he could keep doing the work, and now, finally, he has the chance to go out on his boat, with a beer and his rod to catch something. Maybe if he catches enough he can fill the whole freezer set up in the basement. Fresh frozen fish for months.
The rest of it:

@hex@kolektiva.socialTime for a social experiment. I have 5 questions:
- What should we work towards as a society?
- What's one thing that doesn't exist now in your community but should?
- What's one action you could take in the coming year to align your life with that goal?
- What's one thing you could achieve in the coming year to get closer to making that thing exist?
- Imagine that we changed everything and you're living in the world you want to see exist. What does the world look like?
I've asked variations of these already (and am still getting great responses), but this time there's a catch. Get together some of your friends (3-5 people) and ask these questions of the group. Come up with *one* answer that everyone in the group agrees on and post it here, then write a bit about your experience.
If you don't know people locally (or otherwise can't do this in person), tag some folks in here or wherever your people are at digitally. Just add some info on if it's online or in person.
For anyone bold enough to actually do this, let me know if you'd be OK with me putting this in an upcoming entry (https://anarchoccultism.org/building-zion/).

@hex@kolektiva.socialAll we're asking is for y'all to catch up on some history so you understand what you're coming into. Even #NoKings grew from #50501Movement, which started as a decentralized protest before being taken over by the nonprofit industrial complex. Antifa networks were doxxing fash hard through the first Trump admin, but those networks go all the way back to the 80's... And they inherited an even older tradition. If you really want to get down to it, the whole "no kings" thing in Europe was at the very least heavily influenced by indigenous folks in the so-called Americas. There's a lot of history that's lead to this moment, and it's kind of all relevant to understanding how we got here and how we actually get out.
