Celebrating "95 Steempower"!
It took a year but, we now have 95 SP. Now our upvote it is worth a full $0.0001 more than it was yesterday! Whoo-hoo?
Again, to remind everyone, I am here to upvote and resteem other artist's work as well as share Mr. Dreamtree's artwork as it comes to fruition. I am here to tell you the truth. It really matters not if we make cryptocurrency, get upvotes/resteems, or any other accolades. However, when we find those who don't deserve such accolade, we will let them know. Just know it isn't an act of hate, it is a simple act of honesty. Hate to say it but, the truth, more often than not, isn't what we want to hear. Kind of like when you find out that Santa was made up and your parents were giving you the presents the whole time. The truth tends to be dark and we never claimed to be nice people. We are at first until you do something that gives us a motivation to cease benevolent behavior.
That being said, I can't believe how many frauds are on here, making money they don't deserve. Posting about how "nice" they are just to attack you, without any intellect, because their ego seems to be bruised because you told them a truth they couldn't handle. Well, get used to it. I, for one, am not the welcome mat I was in High School and I sure as hell won't lie to you, nor take your "LMAO's". If I think your work is uninspiring, unoriginal, lacking of imagination, "been there, done that", automated, or any other quality that would cue me in that you aren't a worthy artist, I will hinder you just the same as I would help someone who deserves it.
If you look back to December or so, I posted about how I took all of my remaining crypto after the "Resource Credit Crash" and converted it into SP for the soul purpose of being able to communicate with people on this platform, upvote, and resteem posts without a hinderance. I still hold true to that ideal to this day. It seems ridiculous to me that we have a platform here, called, Steemit, that should be like FB and allow people free, open conversation. Instead, we have folks who use the now convoluted "Discord" to communicate instead. Not going to lie, I am not going through all of the effort of re-establishing a presence on Discord because, we have nothing to hide and we should be able to communicate here in a manner that is free and open.
This is NOT a decentralized platform. Did you have any say in that incident that created the "Resource Credits"? Enough said. It is a capitalist, pyramid-scheme like any other currency that is on this Earth as of this moment. Most of those who have any say here operate in secret. That should be the biggest red-flag of all.
Much Love, sortof?

This pastel drawing is a crappy drawing Mr. Dreamtree did way back in the early 90's when one of his teachers insisted that he study the work of Jim Dine. It was a journey worth taking.
Don’t spend it all in one place. 😉 Congratulations.
Lol, right? I haven't spent any of it in the whole year I have been here, other than token amounts for "boosting" which I gave up on doing when I realized having SP was more relevant to me and what I do. Thanks for the humorous comment!
Hello @shaman-ra, thank you for sharing this creative work! We just stopped by to say that you've been upvoted by the @creativecrypto magazine. The Creative Crypto is all about art on the blockchain and learning from creatives like you. Looking forward to crossing paths again soon. Steem on!
I appreciate it but, I am probably getting off of this platform soon. All it does is cause me stress.
