This data is fundamentally flawed. It's literally provably false, right now, just by looking at the data directly.

JUST the top 10 NFTs, trading only on Opensea, pushed 21,549 ETH in volume just in the last 24 hours alone.

That's $32,323,500 traded over 24 hours calculating at $1500/ETH.

According to the chart, total USD sales were only 13 million.

So basically this is wrong.

Edit: I’m sorry my facts are disrupting your narrative and upsetting your fragile reality. Thanks for the downvotes though.

This is my general argument for the whole "ban tiktok" argument.

To think that it's just Tiktok doing this is ignorant.

We literally saw Facebook's affect on politics via Cambridge Analytica, and that was 100% data driven science. They literally manipulated the flow of information to particular types of people and fucked with their brains enough to sway their whole thought processes.

To think there is no one else in the world doing this is ridiculous.

I can't help but to feel like this is the evolution towards the entertainment in the move Idiocracy.

There are a bunch of different plans in the works but amusingly enough the only example we need to follow is the city infrastructure plan that Singapore has.

If we followed that, our cities would be infinitely more beautiful, sizably better for everyone involved, and would cost far less overall than our current infrastructure plans.

I'm so sorry, I totally get it. I was as well. Losing a parent isn't easy. My girlfriend lost her father a few months before mine so we've both been grieving.

Only advice I can offer is to work towards remembering and celebrating the great times, forgive the bad, and to work towards personal closure as best as you can to anything which is lingering heavy in your heart. I wish I had done that more while he was still with us.

Difficult time. So sorry. :(

Can confirm. I have recordings of my father who passed in August that I'll likely forever cherish.

Wound is still fresh on this one but I'm thankful to have messages from him saying hi before he went downhill.

I think that’s a joke. You spent too much time on the buildup though so I feel like you’re serious at the same time.

I didn't like foldable devices the first time they presented them decades ago, and I won't like them now.

It's a cool nifty concept but in practical use is beyond annoying.

Millions of people want to live there.

Thousands of homes are available.

Basically it.

Just as so many are a mouthpiece for the fossil fuel industry.

It's amazing to me how many people still parrot the "findings" of "scientists" who are on big oil's payroll.

>She doesn't have answers

So you think she's a puppet, completely incapable of free and independent thought? A young actor paid to deliver a oscar award winning performance?

I agree that parents tend to mold the minds of the younger generation, but isn't it possible that kids are also capable of forming their own opinions by 16?

It's not that they're rude, they just don't care. You're a nameless faceless individual on the internet and we've grown desensitized to the emotions of a world without names or faces.

People simply don't care until you make a post like this and make them care.

If you hadn't posted, we'd have never missed you in the first place because we don't know you and didn't even know you existed.
