1. i was asked to resign after being reminded that there's a non-disparagement clause in my contract.
2. i'm going grift weird gamers by using my temporarily amplified voice to scream about how i was silenced by the woke left.
these guys are real turbo dorks lemme tell ya.
imagine taking financial advice from ant man, or telling a belly button pervert that you think mario is going to be cancelled.
real cook hours here folks. just real boomer online shit.
imagine still being hardcore into gamer ethics and titty censorship or whatever when all the rest of your 2014 pals have cranked up the racism dial and gotten pilled to the gills on the JQ or whatever. pathetic.

if you're an artist who is keeping quiet about NFTs and thinking "why is everyone being so mean? all the NFT people seem so nice!"
please take a step back for a second and look at other groups that use "love bombing" and more importantly, why they use it.
"they say NFTs are going to get better soon!"
cryptoart has been around for years in the same form it's in now. it has had ample time to change. if they change it will be because they fear losing their product... which is you.
"they say i can get royalties from my art and that i can prevent fakes!"
they're lying to you. this system is broken and can easily be exploited by those who understand it, and odds are you are not one of those people.
please, crypto men, your lvl 1 posts are very boring. i am tired of explaining that landlords and grocery stores do not accept jpeg bucks as payment. please read nft marketplace t&cs, any book, and the bible, before posting here. also stop being rude.
thank you for your time sir
p.s. breaking these rules means i unfortunately have to block you. i am sorry but this is a christian website.
p.p.s. please start your journey to not being a crypto man by listening to this guy. go read his books. very interesting.
here's a piece of art. is it cryptoart? if so, who owns it, what edition is it, what marketplace was it sold through and where is its "ownership" recorded?
cryptoart doesn't solve digital provenance. it's techbros stealing legitimacy from an already corrupt fine art market.
okay fuck it. out of curiosity, i took at a look at a contract. lots of junk about timestamps and ids and whatever. i'm here for the actual art though. let's look at this one on rarible.
it's a tulip. moving on.
i can see who owns it pretty easily using etherscan, but that's not what i'm interested in. where's the art, the thing that my token represents the value of!?
oh there we go. no idea what ipfs is but it's a regular https url so lets go.
artists pay to list pieces, buyers pay to place or cancel bids, artists pay to accept bids. this is all paid in speculative funny money that you need to buy in advance.
sure seems like a system where people with money/audience can benefit from this at the expense of others.
the more people buy the funny money, the higher the perceived value of the funny money. the higher the perceived value of the funny money, the more expensive it becomes to mint and make/accept bids.
IT SURE SEEMS LIKE some people are gonna get rich at the expense of others
this is not the democratization of art. this is not taking the power back. this is techbros and investor backed platforms sitting on mountains of funny money converting you into fuel for the turbo train to climate hell.
