Even better, the company he’s partnered with is all about AI voice over tech which aims to make him and his peers redundant someday
I don’t like how he’s saying “you can hate or you can create” as if those who were negatively affected by NFTs due to its over abundant usage of energy and what not are to blame themselves

Troy's always been incredibly thin-skinned.
Man quoted Jason Schreier saying "Games are too long" with a whole ****ing "Man in the Arena" quote from Teddy Roosevelt.

Sounds like this whole NFT thing is becoming the next anti-vaxxers.
I think it's more analogous to a ponzi or pyramid scheme. It's a huge scam encouraging people to invest in something that has no actual value.

This NFT bubble will pop eventually and a lot of people's bank accounts are going to be hurting for it.

...I'd say it's being enviromentally unfriendly would set it apart, but pyramid schemes are built around overproduction and aren't exactly great for the environment either.

What's up with all these voice actors getting into NFTs?
Idk but you will be glad to hear Chris Hackney and Eric Vale are violently against it. Chris regularly tweets "**** NFTs" and Eric vale, in fact ,responded to a post about this voice nft thing with , I quote, "Please choke on your own **** forever" so it's pretty clear he hates nfts with a passion

Well after an 18 hour drive, my family and I have finally arrived at our new home. It was quite a long trip with our four dogs and five cats all in one cargo van, alongside a lot of our stuff. But we got here safe and sound which is nice. Hoping for a bright future ahead here!

Troy's NFT tweet is one of the most tone deaf and condescending things I've seen in a while.

I wish no ill will towards him or anyone involved, but to say I'm extremely disappointed in him is an understatement.

That’s a pretty cool distrubtion event. I really like the birds having their normal colors. It’s weird but a cool concept.

Also Brock is back for this anime special? I wonder how and why. Plus we haven’t seen him get sent back in time in the previews so I wonder what happens.

Been playing a lot more Deadly Premonition today and I swear York's mindset is literally the exact same as mine.

I wouldn't be surprised if Swery65 is autistic what I'm thinking now.

Pride comes before a fall and I can't wait for it. Hopefully crypto will follow.

Though what worries me the most, the tech based in NFTs could lead to a lot harder to share stuff on the internet.

We're now currently two weeks into 2022. How is it for everyone?
Outside of severing ties with quite a few people for mental health reasons and increasingly eating a lot more protein stuff/ice cream to gain weight not much has changed.

Also waiting for a bloody decent day to get on my bike but it's freezin or rainin.

My sleep schedule is ruined, my anxiety and self loathing are peaking, I’m super bored now that I’m out of a job (it was annoying, but it gave me something to do) and all I want to do is sleep, watch Encanto, and forget I exist.

But Legends Arceus looks cool :nifty:

Know the feeling my dude. That's me with my anxiety as well along with my obsessive compulsive thoughts which my anxiety tends to mostly stem from. Thankfully landed myself a therapist and she'll help me manage them better. Be seeing her on the 24th.
