 America feels like #nostr in real life 

Just walked down a street and got about 21 extremely friendly GMs 

The real world is kind 🫂
What you send out in the universe comes back..

 For all of our faults, Americans are generally very friendly IRL. GM. 
 I totally agree. The people are incredibly nice 
 We like to chat 😂 
 In Belgium we go with the “headnod and awkward smile”

Sometimes I say hi, but usually people react with the “headnod” 
 In Germany we don’t even do that. It’s just look down on the street 😂

 Good morning brother 
 There’s really no incentive to be a dick in real life. Whereas there are huge incentives to being a dick on most social media platforms. 
 what's the incentive to be a prick? 
 Ask Elon Musk

 It sure can be. Where are you at. In the south I feel like it’s that way. In Seattle kinda but not you much.
You must be the GM you wish to see in the world 
 Newport Beach right now. 
Small enough community so everybody is super nice 
 Nice, have a good time out on the coast! 
 Did you also zap them instantly ? Like a zap smile or a zappy handshake 🤝
