"Dan's Mode"
Gotta tell you kids. Most of you may not know it yet, but certainly I am one of the oldest users still active creating content on the Hive blockchain despite the current & adverse circumstances. Today would be 2406 continuous days since I started doing it and still I haven't stopped. And in fact, it has nothing to do with consistency, or perseverance, or tenacity, or need, or stubbornness, or tirelessness nor anything as arcane, esoteric, glorious, divine or applaudable & exemplary as that. I tell you!!
The only thing this has to do with is, that I'm already very old. Old, pensionary and retired. And this privileged situation for a good number of years, had granted me the fortune to stop dealing with a large number of idiots, imbeciles and assholes on a daily basis. Well, at least reducing all of them to a minimum since I started creating content on the blockchain. All this is nothing more sophisticated nor complicated than that.
However, perhaps I should also add something else. For example, my infinite curiosity about the behavior of the human beings. Especially in other more distant cultures in which I had not yet had the luck and opportunity to interact much on a personal level.
And to top it off, also my natural desire to share & exchange wisdom experiences, some useful knowledge I learned through a big heap of years, one or another personal anecdote that could be valuable to someone else, a few random insights and above all, an inexhaustible weird, twisted, flamboyant, ironic and sarcastic sense of humor that always would invite people to think and reflect and thus, make me able to learn something new every day by taking everyone who hears or reads my stuff to the frontiers of their way of thinking, their logic and their reasoning.
As I write these lines, I realize that there are many more things that I would like to tell you about myself in this post. Because I just feel like I'm getting excited. But I have to be disciplined and not let this get out of hand. Because otherwise, this post would be too long and most likely I could lose the thread of what I came to mention today. So, I'll leave the rest of this story for another more auspicious occasion.
¡Going back to the beginning!

To tune in and empathize a bit with what chatGPT has already said in the screenshot above. I will only say that I am well aware that most of you who make life here in this "social network" of the blockchain on a daily basis, most of you are nothing more than a huge mob of youngsters. I know it and I always have known this.
And for the same reason, believe me that I understand you well. I understand that some or many of you have mentioned at some point (because I found out) that I often turned out to be an annoying chap, someone suposedly complicated and difficult to interact with, someone who with certain frequency could sound a bit arrogant, condescending, fatherly and bossy. But in fact, nothing is further from reality.
In first place, I am well aware that, generally, many around here may not like me because of the truths that I say and that have to be said and that no one else dares to say. In second place, perhaps, because I say things directly and without many detours with the genuine intention of making people think, reflect and make them truly aware on what they say and how they say it to make them think twice.
Because as you know, basically nobody likes to be confronted with these situations publicly. And much less to those who believe they have some power and they think they are above others because the only thing they have is money and high HP. I suspect that those are the ones who like me the least and Oh boy! how well they show it. Hahahaha
It's just that I'm already too old. I have lost a great deal of patience a little bit. And evidently, I'm already tired of dealing with childish kids. But far above it all, having to deal with an increasing army of asskissers, brown-nosers, boot-lickers, jalabolas, sycophants and spineless parasites & leeches of all kinds to whom throughout my whole life I've always really despised big time. Hey! nothing specifically against you buddy.
But hey! that there are, there are! And they all know very well who they are. Although the point is, that because I am already very old and I've been wandering, snooping and creating content across these blockchains for so long. As you will understand, I have already seen, heard, smelled, tasted and touched many things that you would only dream to have the chance to feel and witness here in the "social network" in tha blockchain.
Yeah, I've seen almost everything. And at this point, all of that now makes me a little more demanding. There was a time when in these new "social networks" on the blockchain in which anyone could monetize their content, used to be a fertile ground to attract, retain and see it flourishing with all sorts of truly smart & witty people.
Truly intelligent people, with truly original ideas and with the authentic enthusiasm and the genuine intention and willingness to show off and share their work, their experiences and ingenuity with everyone else just in the search for real feedback, lasting relationships and the opportunity to gain new knowledge interacting and engaging with everyone in the ecosystem with a very high level of acumen and desire to give. A wonderful quality that I feel and resent that has been lost a lot lately. Since nowadays what can be seen the most is extraction, subtraction, restrictions, downvotes, cronyism and blatant sycophancy. ¿What do you think happened?
Well, if you don't know or have no idea what happened. Well, here next I will leave you with a trio of videos with which chatGPT responded to my witty prompt. Which in honor of the success of the chain and the retention of its users, you may confirm by yourself how many of them you already know and if you think they all have survived and are still "active" here on the Hive blockchain.
