Dude. I opened a Steemit account.

Ascending from a yearlong funk, I have decided to utilize Steemit as a motivation for self-discipline and inspiration. Yes, it's true: I am exploring ways to use a social-media platform as a vector for mental health. Considering the veritable hellscape other platforms have become, this is obviously counter-intuitive. I truly believe that Steemit--with its incentivized posts--could prove useful to individuals who have lost sight their joie.

Also, I'm kind of a jackass, so take some of my fuckery with a grain of salt.

Here's me:

My interests back then were animals, E.T. and striped tubesocks.

Here's a more recent picture:

My interests now include literature, graphic design, film, dicking around and self-loathing.

Future me:

This version of me is into cryptocurrency, network security, MDMA-assisted therapy and he makes video art installations.

Anyway, in addition to being a weirdo--I plan on posting some of my older (and hopefully new) work, exploring the philosophical implications of decentralized social-media and cryptocurrency, bugging some of you geniuses on here for all kinds of advice and, ideally, ignoring my bullshit long enough to make something new.

Word.

Haha, welcome. Gotta say, seeing an introduction like this is almost a relief. Will be following you. See you around...

Yeah, I feel like I'm missing something. All the trending posts seem to be about Steemit and/or getting a cryptocoin nut. Is the website supposed to be dedicated to these topics, solely?

I don't believe so. I think it may be due to the fact that it's still new. So Steemit is still an exciting topic. I believe if Steemit gains a much larger community, there will be a lot of good content to take the spotlight. I do agree, a lot of the trending section is about Steemit, and I think that is just due to people seeing the money in it. A lot of people are on here primarily to earn $. Right now the best way to earn $ on Steemit seems to be writing articles on how to earn $ on Steemit.

Welcome to Steem @rollogreb I have upvoted and sent you a tip

I think you were into the wrong kind of funk. Try this kind.

Also, the powers that shouldn't be want you to be a self-loathing sack, so just keep it up.
It serves them well.

James is my favorite kind of funk.

Nice work my friend. I love the pictures. Upvoted
