Two more reels from a collection I got from James Byrne: the Liffey Banks and the Old Blackthorn Reel.

Artificial scarcity is inherently worthless because there’s an infinite amount of just-as-good artificial scarcity out there to be created. If it’s valuable like currency, that’s because of really scarce systems behind it—like gov power.

Printing out your bank balance just now would be a good idea, in case we end up facing a cyberattack that targets banks.

Distinguish on principled grounds, if you can:

I identify as Jesus Christ.
I identify as gender fluid.
I identify as black.

Minifeed (what StartThis.org runs) is soon to finish v2. True decentralized social media. From the comfort of your own miniblog, you’ll be able to follow, unfollow, reply, like, etc. Friends testing now. (No public launch until ready.)

Since installing the handy “Return YouTube Dislike” browser plugin, I find myself wanting a similar button for Twitter.

We need to educate young people who never properly learned the value of unhindered discourse to the health of an open, democratic society.

Do you (and maybe your kids and your grandkids) understand the principles?
