What's not surprising, alas, is that the right-wing Senators who mention the Constitution in their Twitter bios are in no way, shape, or form standing up for the Constitution.
Ok I’m trying OpenVibe. Hooked up some of my socials that are decentralized in one way or another. So far so good. We’ll see how it goes! Maybe we can do sosh medes and be less dependent on broligarchs.
(Will this post to each of my connected accounts? I think so. Maybe? Still learning...)
Cost to the Social-Media Billionaire Class
❌ You moving to Bluesky: 1 penny
❌ You moving to Mastodon: 1 nickel
✅ SMBs dropping their Silicon Valley ad campaigns in favor of local, decentralized digital alternatives: *priceless*
I wonder if Threads users moving here or over to Blue Sky makes much of a difference. It might! But what would matter more? Getting SMBs to adopt a different technology. Who would benefit? You. Society at large. Your community and the SMBs themselves.
We offer a decentralized platform for merchants and customers to mutually benefit. Know a shopping center near you? A college town near you? These places are especially perfect fits.
For more information, please take a look at gotyou.co
Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) place a high value on getting customers. This is not new. But over the years, things like Yellow Pages and a large variety of other customer-getting methods that were local or local-ish have been replaced by sending all the marketing money to Silicon Valley. This is key: SMB advertising is the source of the broligarchs' wealth and power: It's a boatload of local money being funneled away to 3 big companies.
I have been working for a year at a company that would make a real difference in what powers broligarchs like Zuck, and we are struggling to find any funding. Have some capital? Let me know — stat!
Here comes some more info.
It's not a real pitch. I'm not the real pitch guy. I just build the web apps. But I hope you'll read more. Starting with some big-picture background:
aburtch“The US top rate of tax in 1944 was 97%. The postwar top rate from 1945-63 was 94%, and it was 70% from 1965-80. This was the period of the largest expansion of the US economy in the nation's history. These are the ‘good old days.’”

I think Bitcoin is here to stay. I think the price dip is a good buying opportunity. I think that if you don't have any BTC yet, some time in the not-too-distant future you'll look back at today as a time you wish you would have bought some.
$100 USD will get you over 190,000 satoshis right now. Do it!
BTC exchange rate has dipped a little. If you still have zero bitcoin, could be a good time to get some.
Hey, what do I know and this is not financial advice, but I strongly suspect that if you acquire even a small amount (like $100 / 170,000 satoshis) and then do nothing else for a number of years, you'll be glad you did.
Many Bitcoiners are youngish white dudes, and I hope that if that isn’t you, you’ll really consider getting some.
Anyway, wish I’d done this many years ago. Peace out.
