Hello friends, welcome to the blog of high thoughts!
This place is dedicated to ramblings like the one you’re reading today, as well as to short stories, philosophical essays, and maybe even the occasional podcast.
I knew little of cryptocurrencies and nothing of this community until just last week, when who-knows-how I stumbled onto steemit — through some random tweet 45 minutes down my feed probably — so I’d like to ask a priori for your forgiveness should I misuse any technical terms.
Reading through the Steem bluepaper & whitepaper, I have to admit I was both amazed at, and jealous of, Ned Scott and Dan Larimer. Amazed because embedding a social network within a blockchain database to produce a structure that values quality over quantity is visionary work. Jealous because I had the same idea just last month, damn it.
Lucky for everyone, Ned & Dan were talented enough to bring such a platform into existence. And successfully at that. Top 5 most promising cryptocurrency of 2018? Sign me up.
The post-it note on which I jotted down my own blockchain epiphany is rotting in a drawer as I write, and I probably couldn’t find it should I wish to.
Having spent a few hours reading various blog posts, I can confirm that there definitely is quality content on the site. For example, I found this series of articles on a DMT breakthrough utterly fascinating. But I also found myself reading blatantly plagiarized work, and even wandered into heartwarming porn clips on d.tube. Nonetheless, I can’t wait to get to know you freaks!
Since #introduceyourself is quite the popular tag around here, I shall offer my rookie stats:
- Timothy J Cauchy
- Age: 24 yo
- Lives in Los Angeles, CA.
- From Paris, France.
- Has never blogged before.
I’ll often be writing about personal experiences, so if your fetish is to creep on strangers, you’ve come to the right place. However, for further information on me, I encourage you to hit the subscribe button (follow button, maybe?) as I find it more appealing and, frankly, less awkward to introduce myself through narration rather than compiling a list of facts.
I’m no historical landmark, I’m an ever-evolving brew of cells, chemicals, and thoughts. Don’t try to put me in a box, bitch.
For your random pleasure, a horrid photo of the recent "super blue blood moon" eclipse.
As parting words, let me also say this: in the next 18 months, I’ll be traveling to Southeast Asia and South America for extended periods of time, and I’ll probably be touring North America as well— living out of a van. New-age hippie as my mother would say, hooray!
Talk to you soon, fellow humans!
[Disclaimer] If you recoil at satire and/or fear 'death by astonishment,' you'll find this sanctuary to be a scary place indeed. Otherwise, I’d love to have you onboard for upcoming expeditions to inner spaces and outer worlds.
