Thank you for your generosity on the chain. When I first started on Steem, somehow your family noticed me and began upvoting my posts. It was one of the defining moments that kept me coming back at that

You on the other hand are just damaging your investment in Hive by pushing people away with your abuse and harassment. I'm pretty sure he has bought enough Bitcoin (and other stuff) from his

Thank you. Sorry to say someone wasn't a fan of my post to raise funds for you, and so far has knocked off about 2/3rds of the potential rewards it had garnered. While not surprising, still disappointing.

more than 50% of the world's cases have been recorded. And there have been so many stories of false data collection being used to inflate the numbers. This has grown beyond the pale of ridiculous. I'm

I still have hope to find a way to resell where I live. In person sales is tricky here, as folks aren't congested here like they are there. I had Ebay off to a great start before Covid hit (2 consecutive

Homeschooling is the way to go. I did this with my son after he finished the 5th grade. He was one of the brighter students, and would get in trouble a lot as he finished his work quickly and then wanted
