Well hello wonderful people and welcome to another potential disaster of a post produced by your most excellent host, @NoNamesLeftToUse The Writer/Artist Himself!
And damn! You folks make browsing content a royal pain in the ass some days/weeks.
I finally get some time to chillax with my chain gang after another long-ass hiatus. I'm excited; I'm pumped; I'm happy to see you. A few days later and all I'm seeing is some newfangled contraption, some kind of a trippy cult form around it, then post after goddamn post all chanting the same thing.
You can relax though. I'm happy for you folks if you're happy. I mean that; but for the rest of the post I'm going to continue fucking around.
Some might be wondering why I haven't pledged my allegiance, or whatever.
"What's going on here NoNames? Are you not one of us? Think you're too cool for 'massive profits' and all that? You got your tickets and you're supposed jump on the bandwagon with us or get left behind. Are you sure you want that? Do we have to hold you down and teach you how to crypto, the hard way? Don't say we didn't try to help when we're all lambo and you're all lebaron convertible. Hundreds of posts about it wasn't enough? Dude announces 30k and you're still not sold?"
Rub it in until it burns!
I like pain.
Those who are closest to me here and the many more who simply follow along — watching my every move — may have noticed a trend over the years.
Here one minute. Gone the next.
The account known as me goes completely silent. No posts; no comments; no votes.
When I leave, often a huge chunk of that time is spent offline. Completely off. No connection to the rest of the world. Just me, the goddamn walls, and maybe some nature. I do the thing so many say is impossible. I live without internet sometimes and other times when a connection is available, if I'm in Gone Mode, that means social media stays far away from me until I decide it's time to relapse and become a fully fledged addict again.
How many times have you this is not financial advice financial experts around here lost your shirt (or at least a sock) in your sleep? It happens, right?
Now imagine how things would be going for you if you had to spend a week, two weeks, two months, away from the internet.
Are you going to be jumping in on everything fashionable in crypto knowing full well you might not be able to pull the trigger when it's time to shoot?
I've passed on plenty of the don't risk more than you can afford to lose 'opportunities' over the years. Probably all of them.
Been in this game a long time. I've seen hype trains get hyped and still can't seem to commit. Most likely because I don't want to, plus I'm the sales pitch's worst nightmare.
"New and improved" written on a jug of Tide doesn't impress me. If you want to be soap, you should've known how to be soap to begin with. Not dick around for decades, ripping people off, then finally decide to get your act together.
That's how I'm wired. It's insane. If those assholes over at Youtube decide to interrupt my regularly scheduled programming just so some bottom shelf bargain influencer can tell me how much money they made this month working from the comfort of their own gaming chair, I'm not listening to their words. I'm studying body language and looking for that classic head shaking in the direction of NO as they spit out the next line of bullshit. That's my entertainment right there.
"My mind's telling you YES! But my body! My body's telling you NO HO HO!"
As a matter of fact, I don't even know how this post turned into this mess; but I have great idea for an opening line now.
So many opportunities. I'm an actual digital artist and I'm not even involved in the NFT craze yet. Could have made sixty million and some change by now, easily....
And in case you're wondering, yes, there will come a time this entity dabbles in selling some work. @NoNamesLeftToUse is exclusive to Hive and always will be, I'll price everything way out of your league, some sucker will show up to buy, and you all can thank me later.
I'm just kidding. Kind of.
Finance/investing; not really my thing. Business is something I enjoy though. Right now I feel the foundation is a bit shaky. I could be wrong, and that's fine. I could go out and grab some short term gains but... I'll just keep my plans to myself.
Earning crypto by producing digital art is nothing new to me. I've been literally (people say that way too much these days) doing just that since 2016.
I knew, since day one, art and crypto would gel. There was no fucking way around it. Bound to happen. People thought I was crazy; whatever. I'm a pioneer in this industry. That doesn't mean I think I'm anything great and you should all bow down or some shit. It's just a little something I get to feel good about.
If more people in the industry would have noticed, back in the day, my efforts creating and presenting digital art on this platform led to an account value worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, this art meets crypto craze we're seeing today would have happened a lot sooner.
I wasn't kidding when I wrote posts talking about generating billions by embracing the consumer and their desire to spend money on arts and entertainment.
It's not going to go away, and now you'll actually get to see the billions.
I'm done yapping.
