I am fed up with living in a system that does not acknowledge our qualifications based on our race. Yes, I might be overreacting, and I hear a privileged man in a white coat saying, "If you are talented or qualified enough, you will be chosen." But guess what? The man standing in water does not experience the same reality as the one standing in fire. Can’t we look past citizenship, where we grew up, and race to see talent and charisma? I believe we should appreciate the diverse perspectives in our system. Don’t you think it needs more seasoning? Someone from the slums or hidden villages could bring valuable insights. Their experiences, rooted in their grandparents’ lives on sesame fields and their Imam chanting five times a day, can provide a unique viewpoint that enriches our system. #damus #nostr #grownostr #freedom #decentralized #freespeech #decentralization image
I’m bored. The world’s burning. Let’s write. A poetry challenge—no filters, no likes, no gods. Just drop your wildest, rawest, most unhinged words. Existence is the theme. Challenge the system. Use metaphor. Use madness. Use silence if you have to. Here’s mine: ANOTHER MARTYR My body has no place for wounds It sheds blood and I decease as a martyr every day I have nothing left to sacrifice as a victim of society's wounds I pray that you hear the silence and my sacred funeral. #PoetryChallenge #Lailanite #DamusRiot #WordsNotWars #nostr #grownostr #decentralized #bitcoin #freedom
In a non-algorithmic setting, individuals encounter the difficulty of interacting with ideas without allowing personal biases and emotions to influence them. This situation encourages a change in viewpoint, resulting in a reassessment of one's basic comprehension of reality. Do you agree? #damus #nostr #grownostr #decentralization #decenralized #freedom image
AT THE NILE, WEEPING By the Nile, I knelt praying, My soul wandered in the desert of consciousness Lost and tired like blood-soaked hands of the tyrant She climbed the mountain of light While diving into the bodies of the nonexistent And set up a shrine for my body And invited the creatures of darkness. By the Nile, I knelt crying, My soul is building a castle from the lost moments Enclosed by walls from the spears of survival She descended into the blackness And smoked the clouds of destruction. By the Nile, I am entrapped in the mind, Locked on the horizon. #damus #freedom #nostr #grownostr #poem #art #decentralized
White-Coated Our eyes open for the first time to a white-coated, who lifts us by our feet— imprinting on them our address on the earth. A world whose system was first created by him as the Creator, named upon Himself, and completed by His opposite— who dared not name himself anything but upon Him too, in deep arrogance, refusing even to claim the title: master of sinners, messenger of corruption in souls. Oh, forgive me— I meant the world. His feminine shadows applaud his knowledge, his skills, leaving behind the panting breath of a shadow— that from within his darkness brought forth a light illuminating his face, only to become another number in the encyclopedia of the white man’s achievements. Pardon me— I meant the men wearing white coats. #damus #nostr #grownostr #freedom #bitcoin @jack View quoted note →
Algorithmic Comfort vs. Unfiltered Reality: A Choice of Perception Immersing oneself in an environment influenced by interactions and interests creates a cognitive space that reduces critical analysis and artistic judgment. This leads to heightened perception, attuned to a calming and satisfying atmosphere that penetrates the subconscious. In a non-algorithmic environment, one is faced with the challenge of engaging with concepts independently of personal biases and reactions. This experience prompts a shift in perspective, leading to a reevaluation of one's foundational understanding of reality. Iiniinitially met with resistance, continued exposure and critical analysis facilitate the reprogramming of consciousness, aligning it with an unadulterated truth unaffected by subjective interpretation, a blend of your own reality, reshaped each time to deceive you into believing in change and difference. Each of these experiences is accompanied by its own set of advantages and disadvantages, and it's up to you to choose based on your specific needs and preferences. What is your preference?! #damus #nostr #grownostr #freedomtech #freedom #bitcoin #decentralization
Damus feels like my personal secret spot for journaling. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it has a vibe that encourages openness. The community there is unlike any other platform I've experienced, which is impressive coming from someone with an introverted personality. Happy Tuesday!! 🙏🏽 #damus #nostr #grownostr #bitcoin #freedom #art image
Traditions and beliefs evolve into instinctive behaviors, forming a curse or blessing that renews with each awakened eye. This Wednesday’s “mood board” showcases our connection to a blessed curse, highlighting the beauty of arts, colors, and faces shaped by our ancestors' pain in affirming existence through us. #nostr #asknostr #damus #grownostr #introductions #bitcoin #art #thoughts #freedom #life
