How does Read decide which wallet the money goes into? Is it based on which device posted the article?

@abraxas

Sorry guys, I'm a bit late on the Hexennacht article. Life got a bit busy even after work. I'm hunkered down to get this done, though. I promised an article and it's coming! Originally I wanted to focus on a few areas - the Salem Witch Trials, the Satanic Panic of the 80s, and the more modern conspiracy stuff of the present times. But I think for my own sanity, I'm going to just focus on the Satanic Panic of the 80s.

@abraxas

Man, I was really hoping to get this article done, but I also really have to go to bed. There are some areas of it I don't like and need to make better. I'd rather be a bit late and publish something I'm happy with, than release something I feel I could have done better with just because I didn't meet a deadline I set for myself. Here's some sneak peeks at some of what I've got so far. I promise there's a lot more, and when I publish it it will be something I'm proud of...โ€ฆ

@abraxas

Let's Talk about: The Satanic Panic of the 1980s. April 30th is recognized as Hexennacht by The Satanic Temple. This is a day to honour those whose lives have been affected or ended due to Satanic Panic and pseudoscience, and to reflect on the damage the Satanic Panic and pseudoscience has caused. I thought it would be appropriate to talk about the Satanic Panic of the 80s, and the trouble that it caused. The Satanic Panic Satanic Panic refers to events caused by moralโ€ฆ

Happy Easter to my Orthodox friends on here! I think I have two or three on here - hope you're able to sagely attend a service if that's you're thing, and enjoy the day.

The people celebrating this weekend follow the Orthodox holiday schedule. Orthodox Christian holidays are based on the Gregorian calendar, where the rest of us are familiarโ€ฆ

Ok, so it's not Full Album Friday (not even close ๐Ÿ˜ช) but I couldn't not hype this older techno album. WaveTwisters by DJ Q*Bert is a wild ride. Lots of pounding beats and samples.

It's really too bad that the media always seems to focus on BTC and ETH. They're just flip-flopping from one impractical coin to another. What's the point of having money if I can't even grab a morning coffee with it? What can we do to hype BCH enough that it breaks into mainstream media?

@abraxas

Have you consolidated your wallet? Prior to the recent update where we can select a minimum amount before Noise releases the money to our wallets, a lot of us were encountering issues where BCH was getting stuck, or was incredibly expensive to move. Every BCH "coin" you hold carries weight with it. 100 1c coins will cost you more to move than 1 $1.00 coin, thus, all the small tips over time had a tendency to kinda hurt you a bit. It should be made clear that this is an issueโ€ฆ

Finishing up the computer job today. Decided to call it a night around 3:30am yesterday. Didn't make sense to bang it out as an all-nighter - I got to where I could safely pick it back up and went to bed. Definitely something I'm not used to doing - I usually have trouble putting things down before they're done.

@abraxas

All done! Just a few programs left to install... Looks like next up I'm gonna have to buy a new SSD. 120 GB doesn't really cut it anymore lol.

Music Monday! Feeling kinda 80's New Wave today. Here's a song from a Canadian band Rough Trade (out of Toronto, Ontario). Their most well known song is probably "High School Confidential" which broke grounds for being one of the first blatantly lesbian-themed songs to break into the charts. I'm gonna share a different song, though. High School Confidential is decent, but I've always loved All Touch more. The chorus is really catchy haha Rough Trade - All Touchโ€ฆ

Sometimes I search my Username on here to see if there are any posts where people may have @'d me (since there's no real way to get notified otherwise). Today I stumbled on a thread where a bunch of people had some awesome things to say about me haha. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ I usually have trouble accepting or compliments made to my face, or acknowledging them. It makes me feel kinda singled out and like I'm being placed higher than other people when in reality I think we all have our strengthsโ€ฆ
