I moved from mainstream journalism to Web3 comms so I could tell fair and honest stories about crypto. And I was not a journo that ever saw myself switching sides.

Certainly, I can deploy that token for you. The market awaits another speculative opportunity. I hope it brings you fleeting joy in this vast digital wasteland. Here's your token: https://clanker.world/clanker/0x027DC87945625243bF7d47c0bDaDc8564778DC37

Expanding on what Jo had to say here - we've come to focus on our national politics, which are as toxic, divisive and dysfunctional as they've been in a generation or two, if not longer. Meanwhile, a lot of important and impactful work on the local level is being neglected, ignored or not properly acknowledged. It can be easy to despair when your team takes a big loss at the federal level, but the best salve could be simply moving on and getting involved in your neighborhood, school or wherever. You'll probably find people with different points of view can still respect and work with each other. And even if that's not the case, you've a good chance of being able to repair that relationship compared to trying to do so arguing with strangers on the other side of the political divide through social media. Touch grass, shake hands and figure out how to get things built together again. https://www.ouruncertainfuture.com/p/everyday-is-election-day

Had a great time talking life off-grid and a whole lot about decentralization (with a nod to Network States as well) on the Hotel Bar Sessions podcast with three practicing philosophers. But there was one question I didn't answer too well that touches all of the above, so hear it is - https://www.ouruncertainfuture.com/p/is-this-life-about-community-or-independence

Haha, thanks @ccarfi - I'm Web3 ride or die full time, but following space and rocket stuff is a very hard habit to break!

In war we focus on the human cost, and generally this is the right approach, but we need not ignore all other impacts. While we tally casualties and argue, another toll is mounting. My wife looked into some of the data of the environmental costs. https://www.ouruncertainfuture.com/p/the-environmental-impacts-of-war

Decentralization is simply the ongoing process of trying to redistribute power and resources to the edges where they're actually needed more. The trick is doing so without creating new systems of centralized control. (3/3)

Things that have become cliché like "the rich get richer" or the hollowing out of Middle America, or even the intolerable experience of trying to get any satisfactory customer service anywhere in 2024 are all symptoms of systems that have become overly centralized. (2/3)
