I'm Giving Thanks This Weekend

avatar

Let me say, I love long weekends now!

When I was in the 'work for yourself' world, I hated them. To me, they were just annoying days that the banks were closed and PayPal took an extra day or two to transfer money to my bank. That was a long long time ago lol

Now that I'm in the work world, I appreciate these weekends so much more. Here in Canada, it's Thanksgiving. For any American reading this, I have no idea why we have this holiday like a month and a half before yours but here we are...

I'm so thankful for this weekend. And here's why....

Since I've been working the traditional 9 to 5, a few things have been affected.

Obviously, my time on chain has been dramatically cut. And it hurt even more because of all the commuting I was doing. This weekend is now only 3 weeks away from my family being moved into our new home. Which is 3 minutes from my workplace! Thankful!

Next, all the commuting hurt my time being able to spend with my family. It'll be nice to be around the kids much more and it helps that their school is right across the street from my workplace. That's a win, plus the extra time spent with them. Thankful!

As for this weekend, I'm going to be spending it on three things....

I'm going to be working a lot of #jongojems my new subscription service on InLeo.

I'm blown away by the support so far from some amazing Lions! @onealfa @taskmaster4450 @bradleyarrow @jimmy.adames you guys don't know what your support means. Saying I'm thankful is an understatement! I had no idea if Jongo was a thing on chain anymore after these past few months. But you guys showed me, I still have some gas left in the thank!

I'm going to do everything I can to make #jongojems the must have subscription on LEO. Plus we're going to have a lot of fun with it. I've got some ideas I'll be working on with it this weekend as well to spice things up. If you want to learn more about #jongojems , be sure to check out my post from a few days ago!

But here's the really exciting part about this weekend...

I get to spend a ton of time with my family and with God.

I've got some great spiritual books I want to dive into this week and I'll be able to get in a few hours of reading every morning while the family is sleeping lol Thankful!

And when they wake up....Family time :)

I can't begin to describe how thankful I will be for this time with them.

That's my 'Thanksgiving' weekend. We're back on the acreage with my wife's family. Her brothers and sister will be here. My mom will be here. Her parents will be here. So so so thankful!

It looks like subscriptions are going quite well for you. I think there are quite a few people who remember you and I still remember those cryptomaniacs podcast. It's too bad that stopped after your new job but real life takes priority.

At Bilpcoin, we're committed to helping and supporting people, not abusing them. We're burning as many BPC tokens as we can. We ask, why doesn't anyone do anything about these bad downvotes on Hive?

Very alarming situation on Hive: Misuse of power, fake interactions, and abuse of downvoting we've spoken up about the abuse of power on Hive, only to be downvoted and spoken to poorly.

Themarkymark and others are misusing their power, with Blocktrades delegating Hive power to Buildawhale and Usainvote.

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues

lol the Marky mark keeps dreaming

There's been a notable increase in frustration and concern among many users

Reply 2 @crimsonclad You may consider yourself clever

Reply to @crimsonclad

Consider revising the value plan, as it's not providing significant benefits to HIVE

The Value Plan, as it stands, seems to be a one-sided relationship with the HIVE platform, where the benefits are one-way

Actions indeed speak louder than words, a fact we've all observed individuals may talk a good game, a whole lot of shit, but their actions often expose their genuine nature LOL

We consider it unwise to engage in harmful actions, even if you think you can escape the repercussions

The Hive Police aka Hivewatchers, are the real heroes of Hive LOL, aren't they?

Feast your eyes on Hive's trending page, what a load of trash

LoL it's the Hivewatchers Hive Police, dishing out orders like a bakery LOL! Folks, do what you want with your Hive power, just as you please. And you, Hivewatchers, downvote away, but remember, judgment day's coming

Harry fam We're just here, laughing at the shenanigans on Hive! Sure, our content's getting downvoted, but hey, it's all part of the game LOL

On Hive, there's a user who frequently burns a significant amount of Hive LOL with his own accounts

How To Fool An Entire Population

it's so, so concerning to see Blocktrades delegating 2+ million Hive power to Buildawhale, and Buildawhale is downvoting legitimate content

We began sharing factual information following unwarranted downvotes on Hive it's all in the transactions

Upon examining our posts, you will notice they have been downvoted, and we've been labeled as scammers and spammers, which we find amusing. We consistently share new content

Once again, we ask why is our legit content being downvoted on Hive and what is the reason behind it. Hivewatchers ADM spaminator steemcleaners guiltyparties logic

We have Hive witnesses farming Hive, self-voting, operating comment farms, and self-funding projects with community resources

I'm serious, turn yourself in before you turn postal. Get the help you need. No one should suffer like this.

https://peakd.com/inleo/@themarkymark/re-bpcvoter1-skbzej

Downvoters we've got to ask, what's the joy in downvoting, huh? It just shows how down in the dumps you are! Remember, Themarkymark himself has been downvoted in the past

Funny seeing how much power a Hiver with mental health issues wields! And talk about support, Blocktrades is like his trusty sidekick LOL

Many question the impact of downvoting and the role of certain Top Hivers, including Themarkymark who abuses his power, many express disappointment about the lack of response from those in positions of authority NO HELP.

Buildawhale downvoting good content, self-voting comments powering down funds that are then sent to Ipromote and then the alpha account controlled by Blocktrades' wife doesn't look good and raises questions about the transparency and fairness of Hive.

It’s great to hear how much you’re embracing the long weekend and how your perspective has shifted over time. It's funny how experiences like working the traditional 9-to-5 can make us appreciate things like a long holiday weekend, especially when it brings opportunities to slow down and enjoy time with family and reconnect spiritually.

And congratulations on the success of #jongojems on InLeo—having a supportive community behind you must feel incredibly rewarding. Wishing you a fulfilling and restful Thanksgiving with your loved ones!

Hooray for short commutes. I have been busy since moving back to North Carolina. My main "job" now is taking care of my newest grandchild (3 months old now) just 20 minutes away. I get less writing done, but more reading and more joy. The sewing gets to fit in on the weekends around disappointing football games (Carolina Panthers and my poor Purdue Boilermakers)!BBH
