Nostr is so much better than Twitter. I just wish more people I knew and admired where here
The more frantic the world becomes the more important it is to meditate on that which is eternal and changeless
The dilemma of being in one’s late 40s:
Is the world really getting worse or am I just falling into elderly sentimentality?
Life is made of miracles and wonders, but you never paid enough attention to recognize them
Happiness isn’t having life give us what we want. Life will hurt us in thousand ways, large and small.
Happiness is knowing how to survive the storm and walk out with a smile on our face…
I was just thinking how nice Twitter was back in the day
…before corporations, political parties, and a billionaire all decided to manipulate it for their own ends.
It felt like a public square back then. The place you went to discuss and meet anybody in the digital world, the place where you found your particular tribe of misfits. I made so many friends on that app back then!
It felt like it was ours and we could never lose it. Now it’s an emotionally vacuous space full of cynical con men, shrill politics, and viral stupidity. No one really lives there anymore. They just go to gape at the ghastly spectacle.
NOSTR really feels different. It isn’t a public square yet, but it really can become one, because this time it doesn’t just feel like ours.
It is ours.
