 Just got back from BTC Nashville! Trying to wrap my head around nostr and am excited by the prospect of Nostr addressing the key threats articulated by Snowden, who was powerful and profound but unnervingly short on concrete recommendations beyond “work together.” 
I am passionate about invigorating the creation of so-called “third spaces” in real life, a la Putnam’s “Bowling Alone,” and am really excited to learn more about how nostr and Fedi can help bring these about. 
I spend two weekends a month (approx) getting to know recounting voters and understanding their feelings and priorities. It’s humbling, and a constant reminder of the breadth of human experience about which we are each - by definition - relatively ignorant.  I really want to break open the false binaries; people are awesome (proven to me for the millionth time in Nashville) but we so rarely encounter each other in an unmediated way.
