Daren the Silent Ranter plugs into the Steem Blockchain

Hi, my name is Daren Eris and the reason why I joined the Steemit community was to sever the mortal coil which held me to social media platforms which use the addiction model to data mine their users. These third party social media platforms collect our biometrics . These platforms use facial recognition and track their users. They gather user data such as who we know, where we go, what we do, what we like and don't like, who we love and who we hate, etc... These social media platforms then use AI algorithms to predict our future behaviors. They use targeted advertising on their users and then sell their users data to the highest bidder of the advertising agencies. They are attention sucking vampires who want every last second of our time, and even the like button was modeled after the casino slots. These social media soul suckers have an unquenchable thirst for their users' data. The blockchain promises an end to this practice. The end of need for third party mediators and their fiercely guarded databases which belong to their users. These social media sites amassed great wealth with databases that do not belong to them. Steal your facebook. Steal your database. Start new forks in Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, etc... Create your own alternative versions of these Social Media sites. These companies are now scrambling to figure out how to save themselves and so are world governments, banks, and just about every other entities in existence today. The blockchain will disrupt them all. They will try to stop it but to no avail. Decentralization in the Peer-to-Peer, or P2P, Economy is an unstoppable force. Once the engineers get the scaling correct the blockchains and cryptocurrencies will accelerate this process and this is where parachains can be plugged into the relay chain and blockchains will form an interoperable multi-chain. The blockchains will communicate with each other and AI will be fully established everywhere and within everything in the world, and just when everything looks bright and promising, the quantum computers will kick in and throw a wrench into smoothly moving machine. That story is for another time. Check out:

None of this would have happened if it wasn't for Pope Black of the SubGenius who collided with me at the Grey Area Coffeeshop Amsterdam. http://www.greyarea.nl/
on Saturday the 22nd of November 2003. On Friday the 21st of November 2003, I took a vow of SILENCE. On Saturday J. R. "Bob" Dobbs sent Pope Black to meet up with me thus creating SILENT BOB and the residual singer-songwriter, Bobby Darin. Pope Black asked me if I would like to perform in a few hours at De Badcuyp in De Pijp neighbourhood of Amsterdam, and of course I accepted.

At the performance at De Badcuyp, it was my turn and I wasn't ready yet. As you can see in the following photo were I have just sketched some outlines of words and I hadn't yet filled the outlines in with black marker. This is where Daren the Silent Ranter begins, and this is where the journey continues on Steem, a blockchain-based social media platform, and with Medusa's gaze this Legend turns to stone to last the ages to come.
