These are part of my new "abstract life" collection. So far the pieces in this collection have had more social engagement than anything I have created to date. No sales yet, but I am very hopeful. Each piece in the collection is a 3/3. objkt.com/explore/toke...

4 hours left in my tezos aution. Current bid is 5 XTZ. Piece created in GIMP. Title: AI BOY objkt.com/auction/e/Rm...

AI Boy is an image of a robot with a round head and entanaes coming out of the top. It has big round eyes. The ears, and the whole robot, has a yellowish orage color, the ears have wires attaching the head to the rest of the body. The entire image is overlayed on a greenish colored abstract that looks like digital tree bark.

I'm poor. Like REALLY fscking poor. But I don't sit around on the interest begging random people, friends or strangers, for money. I create art and beg people to buy that. Same results, but one makes me feel like I am doing something, the other makes me feel like a beggar. opensea.io/brucebates

The covid vaccine does not stop the spread of Covid. It does not prevent a person from either catching or passing on covid. People who are vaccinated can get and spread the virus to others just as fast as the unvaccinated.

If you are not happy right now... That's actually normal. You should exist for the most part simply content in life. Happiness and sadness are moments that happen, not states of mind you are intended to stay in. You know who tries to stay constantly happy? Drug addicts.

I don't care what you think about using NFTs to sell art. I'm going to ignore anytime you exclude "NFT art" from what you post - like when you call for art shares but say "no NFT art". There is only art. NFTs are used to make sales. There is no "NFT art". You can deal or block me.
