We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky. Now the Metaverse is everywhere. It is all around us

my punditry about cryptocurrency has mostly dissolved into complaining about common fallacies from amongst the discourse, but gg endorsing btc might actually be what it takes to finally convince me otherwise
