 "I wish I need not have been the main character," said @ODELL.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who wind up in such roles. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the role the internet has given us."

 Meaning you’ll become just like me and every other Nostr pleb who has eight followers and zero engagement?

Be careful what you wish for! 
 Rule #1: never be the main character.  
 NOT VERY HELPFUL BEN. 

WHAT IS RULE #2. 
 Rule #2 is STAY HUMBLE STACK SATS. 

dunno who came up with that one tho  
 WE ARE ALL KEY PLAYERS. RIGHT NOW PEOPLE LIKE US ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN. IF COMPARED TO PEOPLE IN THE WORLD 🙏🏼 
 ONTO THE NEXT CHALLENGE 
 You will always be the main character, just in a better story. 
 BIG IF TRUE

 We just need some more “characters” with large audiences that have the balls to exit X’s FiatNam and enter the uncensorable real world…. People are scared to lose their audiences, but the biggest risk in life is to not take the risk…. ONWARD 🫡 
 Be the change you want to see. 
 GREAT ADVICE BUT NEVER TELL YOUR WIFE THIS 
 not if you keep shouting at us you won't.  
 YOU ARE ALREADY WILLIANM WALLACE. YOU KNOW YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.
