I loved twitter btw. It’s wild that I don’t prefer it much anymore. If I’m not into something I don’t force it.


I’m hoping to catch some pretty leaves tomorrow. I’m going tree watching. 😂


You know what’s funny? My X account actually paid me pretty well a few times and I still don’t even want to be over there posting.

I’m big on vibes. Nostr is just a good vibe lately. Hate, love and everything in between pay on X but peace in my soul is priceless.

Nostr is a peaceful place for me right now. I don’t dread logging on.

What was the nirvana thing that I missed today? I glanced at Nostr but I was doing too much to investigate the conversation. 😩


You’d think that at a time when so few trust the corporate press that independent media outlets and “influencers” would take their place by relentlessly telling the truth.

It would have been helpful. A large portion of them seem to have done the opposite, sadly.

There are incredible journalists out there. Too few in times like these.

I hope that incredible journalists globally find their way to #nostr I’d like to see citizen journalism here as well.


As they should be! I made an extra stop today for pate just for that very  reason.


Those are very fine cats!


How many cats do you have? They are all so beautiful!


Lean back. Stare at a point that was steady. I donno. 😂


I’m less pressed about that and more thinking about the rocks scraping my booty. I wouldn’t wear shorts. 😂


Yeah 😂


It sort of makes noise when it moves but I like the sound. I’m nervous to wear it because I’m afraid that I might break it.


New belt.

I’ve been obsessed with it for a month. I found it on a vintage shop and I’m surprised that it never sold. I guess we belonged together.

A NOSTR - "I'm doing a nostr"


Sunrise!

https://image.nostr.build/6e612ed0aa652996b7d98860bdb06681638e1c621176e3fc5ff3b3c15402ced7.jpg


It will help with bots and CSAM (a high percentage of the CSAM bots and various types of CSE distributed on X are from those areas) without requiring an ID (for now) CSE Bots typically sell/distribute the CSE links with 5k-15k abuse images/videos.

It’s for new accounts so this targets those issues specifically. When they remove accounts new accounts will face a bit of friction returning. They will probably change their tactics as a result of the credit card and the $1.

There was an issue going on last month with bots tweeting CSAM links 100 times per minute under a hashtag used for a word that most folks use everyday. This has happened previously, not just under Elons leadership. (I’m not at liberty to discuss that specific situation any further in public)

I’d rather have them do the credit card over ID but required ID is coming either way, globally.

On the flip side, I don’t like it from a broader human rights perspective. Everyone doesn’t have a credit card and I believe those individuals still deserve an opportunity to speak and I don’t trust X to keep that credit card information safe. Grateful that Nostr exists!

If nostr gets to the size of X or anywhere near it there will be similar problems, unfortunately.

Instead of looking at the situation and thinking about X, I’m looking at it like, “If CSE bot farms leave X because it becomes too costly or dangerous where will they go? Will they come to Nostr? Is Nostr prepared for the problem?”

I don’t think that the CSE bots will come to Nostr right now because there aren’t enough active users… yet. No shade. I hope that I’m right about that one. I might not be tho.


#gm to the beautiful people on the nostr https://image.nostr.build/7b8dc8eadb61b47591b835b9f16e1351fb8ac76704d44e0b5a2ce999212c4aee.jpg


Think about checking Instagram and if you don’t have an account the freelancers would have an email in the bio.

Depending on the size of the group and the style desired a MAC could accommodate for $50 per face and often times those artists freelance as well. Excited to see the looks! 👀

Let it grow at its natural pace. Mention it, nudge a trusted friend, casually drop it in conversation.

1) people are very aware of spammy or over the top pressure and marketing tactics after years of crypto/nft stuff
2) you really don't want the kind of people who need to be forced or bribed while you're building

I hope that you like it when it’s done! 💜


I’m not even sure how I got hooked on my pronunciation but it’s a fun word to say either way 😂


Yes I’ll post it on Nostr.


I agree although I don't think anyone should ever apologize for expressing their authentic self.

I'm glad that you can see the value in having the protocol & like you, I'm excited to see where this goes.

The flip side to this is that there will be & is content that I don't want to see or my children to see. I think free expression is more important than maintaining an illusion though. There are always tradeoffs.


That’s what I always wanted for Twitter btw. Sadly I didn’t realize that what I wanted wasn’t possible there. I’m grateful to have found where it’s possible.


People talk trash on Nostr because they think that it’s a “bitcoin meme circle jerk.”

But when I see Nostr I don’t see it like that. I see the potential for some of the worlds most vulnerable getting an opportunity to speak, truly speak.

Y’all just holding down the fort with the bitcoin memes until they get here. That’s all lol. Keep building! nostr:note17rdjkh0larqqfwyu5uwv4xcpc2k09g8lhlngan252j7apq3l84sszgnsxv

I’m writing something for work and it fills me with so much hope and joy to be able to write, “I believe that the future of survivors sharing their stories online globally will be on completely censorship resistant and decentralized protocols.”

There are a lot of valid conversations happening around the abuse that survivors face online but there is very little conversation about how powerful and impactful it has been for survivors to share their stories online. It brings my heart joy that survivors can come to #Nostr and share their stories and not be censored by the state, the corporate press, tech companies or anyone in a position of power wishing to silence their voice.

The survivors in China who put their stories on the blockchain during #MeToo after being silenced at the hands of the state are not only brave but they are trailblazers.

*Sorry I know that folks probably don’t want to hear much about that topic right now because the world in such a heartbreaking place but you could replace the word “survivor” with political dissidents, journalists, freedom fighters, human rights activists, whistleblowers or peacemakers and it still works.*

Mood


I’m actually surprised that they didn’t fine them sooner. The government in Australia has been on them about this issue specifically since early this year.

This month will be a difficult month for X. EU with the DSA, UK with the Online Safety Bill and India is getting pushy, again. X will have to abide by the laws of every government that they provide services in, even when the governments implement new laws.

Fines are the least of X concerns right now. I’m anticipating at least one or two governments will do a blackout with X by the end of the year for noncompliance etc.

This could have both negative and positive impacts on #nostr

Perhaps a select few individuals will seek out the protocol and abandon state controlled tech in search of real freedom of speech. X can’t afford to lose the ad revenue in multiple countries at this time under the current model.

#NostrNovember is just around the corner. Get ready!

#Nostrasia conference - Register https://tally.so/r/meM1yx

Nostrasia #hackathon - Register https://bolt.fun/tournaments/nostrasia/overview

#Nostrville - Registration is closed.

Nostrville Party - https://geyser.fund/project/nostrville2023party

This November, we are promoting the various aspects of the Nostr protocol beyond social media clients on other social media platforms. I encourage you to promote nostr.cooking, zap.stream, highlighter.com, pinstr.app, and all of your favorite "Other Stuff Nostr" apps. Let the world know that Nostr is much more than social media, more than a Twitter alternative.

By promoting Nostr and its various applications and use cases, we can help to build a more decentralized and open Internet.

If you want to get a head start, you can start drafting some of your posts now and schedule them throughout the entire month, if the platform supports it. This is what I'm going to do. That way I don't have to spend additional time there. Here are some tips:

* Share educational content about Nostr, such as blog posts, videos, and articles. nostr:npub1lelkh3hhxw9hdwlcpk6q9t0xt9f7yze0y0nxazvzqjmre3p98x3sthkvyz 's video about why social media is broken is a fantastic choice here.
* Share your own experiences using Nostr and how it has benefited you.
*  Use relevant hashtags, such as #Nostr, #NostrNovember,  and #NostrApps so others can find your content.
* Promote specific Nostr apps by sharing links to them in your social media posts. Find them on https://nostrapps.com


Actually the EU is working pretty hard to do marketing for Nostr ngl. 😂

#grownostr is a movement to expand the conversation on Nostr beyond Bitcoin and Nostr itself. We all have other interests, right? 👀 For example, I've used this hashtag to share my love of the outdoors, golf, gaming, and beer. Tag me in your best #grownostr note and I'll boost it.


Good morning #nostr I hope that you all have a beautiful day! #farmstr https://image.nostr.build/9796ce5d994abe0853adc5d2cb3ebd6473b7351fe0fa7cc259dbb2543722c4e7.jpg

Being a Nostrich makes you always bullshit.  It's the building. It's the community. It's the freedom. We're different.

Damn. That took less than 24 hours to play out exactly how I said…. Sadly.

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/oct/10/eu-warns-elon-musk-over-disinformation-about-hamas-attack-on-x

“EU warns Elon Musk over ‘disinformation’ on X about Hamas attack”

“Failing to moderate content such as fake news could incur fine of 6% of X revenues or EU blackout under new laws”

I’m not saying that I like disinformation, I hate it actually. I just hate the government deciding what the truth is more. Keep building #nostr nostr:note1a4qrdu3yv8808a47cehlxnu6w4nxpskrhw4p60fqwyc56r9pgddsmh3mlp


Things are so horrible that I don’t have too much to say and I normally would post something loving and positive but what is happening is so gruesome that even that somehow seems offensive. So I’ll skip all of that and it’s not that I don’t care.

I care deeply.

I’m going to talk about #Nostr and #humanrights I have a feeling that the governments, especially the EU, will clamp down on “misinformation” “disinformation” on corporate tech platforms during this time. I could be wrong but I’m surprised that it hasn’t happened already tbh. I’m not advocating for that at all but the DSA in the EU targets some of these issues specifically. I’m just keeping it real based off of the information that I have available.

Nostr is fun as social media but as we move ahead during these uncertain times it can be a great tool for those who need to speak in a censorship resistant way. 💜

I love that all of his interviews are essentially just people sitting back, relaxing, and shooting the shit.

Peter, what do I have to do to get you to update your website to have Nostr socials at the bottom AND to create a WBD npub? Do I have to Zap Danny some Happy Birthday sats or something? C'mon man! 🫂🤙🏻💜

So, the economy is kind of fucked. US, but it's all tied up globally. It's not just houses this time, it's credit cards and loans record high with very low spending. Just save what you can. If you're comfortable, prepare for tight times. If your payday to payday, cut everything you can and save, in bitcoin would probably be safer. If everything turns out fine the worst case is you saved. I expect propping up till after the election, if they can.


Good morning!

Popped up on #Nostr and everyone is posting beautiful pics of flowers and leaves! Thank you!

Quick question, I’m trying to zap and it’s not taking sats out of my WOS anymore it’s coming out of a different spot now, why? It’s not a big deal but it’s just odd.


I’m quite, I’m mostly anon but I’m here. I’m here and grateful. 💜


I told nostr:npub14j7y6l7kprs8azvq7z7r02qu2ah3wysy70p53yvl79epwhs970mqrqantz today on the phone today that I’d be freaking out about the state of corporate tech right now if I didn’t know that #nostr exists.

I thank God for Nostr.


I’d expect new users on #Nostr due to changes on corporate tech platforms as a result of the Online Safety Bill.

Not necessarily nefarious users but more along the lines of folks who will be unwilling to accept the changes.

Journalists, whistleblowers, survivors, anons, political dissidents, activists and anyone who doesn’t feel comfortable giving  ID. Anyone who is skeptical of the government or mass surveillance. Folks who believe in a need for encryption etc. I’d expect them in the next few months perhaps shortly at this rate.

I have a lot to say about that but I’ll leave it there for now.


#nostr trending on my X “for you” feed. Love to see it! Keep building. https://image.nostr.build/f9bfb29b4617ac9bfaa091609e47742b2f5dae8fef1f6d37f97708223048c815.jpg


Hello beautiful people on #nostr

I’ve been primarily using my anon account on Nostr, upgrading personal privacy and security and learning. I have so much to learn, the Cypherpunks are taking me to school. Wow! There is a lot of history there. It’s all been very inspiring.

I just wanted to say how proud I am of you folks. Please keep going! Please keep building. The deeper I get along this journey the more that I appreciate the need for what you are building.

It won’t be perfect, you’ll hit some rough patches but it will be worth it. Sending you love. 💜


It’s a proposal for usability when there are more users of the protocol. 💜


They aren’t ready for any tests yet imo. 😂 They are building. I think eventually everyone will have their own relay. That would probably help.


History will remember you kindly if you are able to get this right. I mean that. It won’t be easy but it will be worth it.


As a survivor advocate, I’m exploring other options like education and awareness to hopefully prevent the illegal content from getting on Nostr in the first place. That should always be the goal.

Education around SG-CSEM is not robust enough. Now, AI is in the mix heavily. I’m trying to adapt quickly to the ever changing space.

It’s a wild time but I’m ready for it.


I like that too but more because it’s fun and interesting.


Alright #nostr I think that folks will be headed this way shortly, more people = more problems.

This will be a problem so talking about it now is a good time. (It’s a problem everywhere online basically so Nostr won’t be unique)

This is a difficult topic so let’s start with 101: Online Child Sexual Exploitation

CSAM = Child Sexual Abuse Material (sometimes referred to as “child porn” “cp” it’s better to say CSAM) is an adult abusing a child in any imagery.

CSEM or CSE= Child Sexual Exploitation Material or Child Sexual Exploitation (Can include grooming and online enticement as well as any type of sexual exploitation of a minor online. It’s a broad term it could include online child sex trafficking where the sale of a child is happening online.)

SG-CSEM = self generated child sexual exploitation material. In other words the child is groomed or coerced into taking the imagery of themselves and sharing it. This is common with “sextortion.”

Sextortion: It’s like catfishing with the purpose of extortion for imagery, money or both. This can happen to anyone but teenage boys are highly susceptible and vulnerable.

AI generated CSE & CSAM: The AI imagery is being used in sextortion cases as well. They take a real picture of the child, add it onto AI generated CSAM or CSE and blackmail the child into sending money or imagery.

If you see anything questionable on Nostr please report it to the NCMEC CyberTipline (I’m not shilling for an organization, I don’t work for them, they are the national org that runs PhotoDNA)
https://www.missingkids.org/gethelpnow/cybertipline

If the questionable content is CSAM, CSEM or SG-CSEM is identified by NCMEC as abuse material it will be added to PhotoDNA and hashed. That hash will run on all corporate tech platforms so if it pops up again it will be removed.

PhotoDNA
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhotoDNA

There is a decent amount of tech available out there to detect and remove this content. I will caution anyone using the technology to be cautious. I have concerns sometimes. That’s all that I can say about that right now.

In closing, I believe that many of these types of issues that end up online can be prevented via education, awareness and prevention. It’s not a tech platform or protocol responsibility to end all evil in the world. When we are educated about these issues we can prevent them from happening to ourselves and our loved ones.

In the case of Nostr, if you love this house…. get ready to protect it. If you see this type of content PLEASE don’t share it because you will be spreading it but let these people know that they are not welcome here and please report the imagery to the app and the CyberTipline. 💜


😂😂😂 pretty much.


Good idea!


The vast majority of people can’t handle changes.


This is why I like #nostr nostr:note1cqtwujsla793vdu30sygpur9eaumh5c380422qdgnuafuvgtvdhqnlnl6x


To be the best survivor advocate that I can be I had to come over, see the negative/positive sides and learn to be able to speak about the space in an authentic way to my fellow survivors/advocates.

As of right now, I’d encourage most survivors globally to speak anonymously on #nostr and use hashtags to share their experiences.

I’d suggest that advocates use their name.

This could change. It’s just my suggestion right now.


Thank you for listening! My biggest fan/stalker is pretending to be me by trying to wear my skin on #nostr by spamming others with pics/videos of me. Some of the imagery is real, some will be AI generated.

As we move ahead in this space expect that survivors, advocates, influencers, politicians and activists etc. globally will be treated this way.

A good lesson on how to verify who we are all speaking with online. I’m a great test case by being over here. This was very deliberate and intentional on my end. nostr:note16ktvzp64eq95s0rh92auv9gxazx8jjtfsf0vl3exuh5jrq53zg4quzkrj2


Not drinking anymore but I’m totally there is spirit.


He’s such a mood.


I’ll try to work on that ASAP.


I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but that individual is a good example case of what Nostr will face.

So it’s lame but good for work purposes as a survivor advocate because I can see how survivors, journalists, activists, political dissidents etc will be treated on Nostr and try to find solutions.


Yes my stalker is pretending to be me on #nostr
