Thumbs Up & Friends

/thumbsup144

The official community. Here hypersub patrons can join in the discussion about pretty much whatever y’all wanna talk about—within reason. Subs Up Weekly (✧420/week) and Monthly (✧4200/month) members both gain access.

I've made some updates to my @hypersub

For starters, I am now using sparks as the way to describe the price as it is easier to visualize than several decimal points worth of ETH.

Secondly, I've introduced a secondary tier. Now we have:

Subs Up Weekly
✧ 420 / week
Ongoing patronage, unlocks access to post in /thumbsup

Subs Up Monthly
✧ 4200 / month
Ongoing patronage with perks like a credits in the newsletter, occasional airdrops of zora creations, and access to channel/group chat.

Of course both include protocol rewards.

spending time in the middle of nowhere, followed by spending time in the middle of somewhere

either way, haven’t been online much
I joined Farcaster on April 27, 2023 and have been a member since 1 year 5 months! Check your Farcaster stats: Frame by @0xdexter
Earned the same amount of USDC and Moxie today. Definitely worth the effort to post on here 💪
Anytime I share any thought on Farcaster instead of my blog:
In case you’re new to following me, I write a blog and monthly newsletter called Thumbs’ Update. It largely focuses on decentralization and technology through the lens of leftist politics, though it explores other topics too.

Right now I’m on a two month hiatus while I travel—I’ll be returning to regular posting in November—so there’s lots of time to read back issues!

This.

Politicians start wars by playing callous political games, vying for power, trying to spread their world view, and trying to capture strategic regional outposts, while often handing off neocolonialist exploitation rights to industries favourable to the western hegemonic regimes. When those games backfire, wars begin.

Let the politicians and their families be conscripted. The rest of us can and should choose not to. If enough people did this worldwide, war would cease.

It’s unlikely, but sometimes choosing the moral option means taking a leap of faith.
According to @botornot I’m still a “good caster” 🤓
Can’t decide if I should draft up a newsletter for October or not. Gonna sketch it out either way but I’m gonna be afk again soon and it’s kind of nice having no deadlines
Such an enjoyable read. It’s true: Musk knows Mars is a fantasy but he uses it as a distraction from the damage being done on earth. Not just the environmental damage, of which he contributes to, but to the socioeconomic collapse that’s guaranteed to long-precede the heat-death of the planet.
@family is my favourite @xmtp implementation for a while now 💚
This open edition is still open and I am still travelling for another month. Just much less busy at this leg of the trip.
Damn, I missed y’all. Farcaster is definitely still the vibe 💚
Been some cool places. Might be back online a bit more often but I’m still not back back until next month
