Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 50/60) Liquid rewards.

And now that expectations are lowered...

Weak-end, I hate you a lot
Weak-end, a hard-on you're not
Weak-end, you'll get one if you're outta luck
Weak-end, I really can't give a fuck!

An excellent effort, much better than mine I think.

No, yours is an inspiring original, whereas mine is but a mere reflection.

Now I'm thinking I must arrange a weekend poem-off, like a weekend poem battle that asks people to write shit poetry with the winner being the worst one! Lol.

Very kind - I know no other way😂
!BBH

Hard time guide us to know what we do today, so that we don't fall into the things we didn't like for ourselves yesterday, happy weekend everyone, blissfulness all through the weekend 🥰

Have a good weekend too.

Thank you 🥰

Good poetry. Happy gentle and kind weekend to all, it has to come and we can't help it, Galen.

Poetry is my super power.

I'm definitely terrible at so many jobs, hehehe.

You and many others I think.

Some good topics. Guess its time for me to get back on the horse and tackle some writing challenges. I always like yours, so here we go.

Thanks, I wanted to present a wide set of topics so there might be something for most people.

I hope you have a good weekend, much planned?

Not much planned. The heat here makes fishing a downer. Probably work on the yard and flowers in the evenings. Mostly watch the Euro2024 games to stay in the cool and drink a brew or two.

What about you?

It's going to be cold here but that's ok...I'll do some work on my computer tomorrow, (after getting back from the range), maybe hit a cafe later for a read and a coffee and Sunday I have to head to mall (hate it) to pick up some stuff and maybe have a bite to eat. Pretty laid back.

I hope you have a good one.

No electricity? Now that's an interesting scenario

You reckon you'd be able to do it? I can, but that's because I'm prepped and wouldn't miss technology. You?

Yup. Biggest issue today would be to handle money though (no light = no internet = no digital money, including credit cards etc). We'd quickly go back to paper, metals or barter; or at least until we adjust to off-grid generation. But you mean no electricity at all, right?

It's gonna be a cool write up

I don't think that would be a bad thing...back to basics. Some wouldn't make it but Charles Darwin's natural selection is there for a reason.

Population would drastically decrease as social unrest, hunger, and more serious medical interventions (without electricity) increased.

Yep, and that would be a good thing. Too many people. It would force people back to basics and those without skills and self reliance would not fare so well.

We all love weekends
(not when you're a workaholic please if you read this rest sick)
Good day for rest, another one for beer, for those of you hive do weekend themes as in posting.
(I'm not one to post things anymore)
So everyone have a good weekend 🍔🥓🍟🌮🥪🌭🥘🍲🍹🍸🍷🍺🍻🥂🥃

>I invite you to join this blog. I'm not suggesting an investment, and I can't promise that you'll make tons of money writing here. And you certainly won't get rich overnight. Instead of money, I suggest you "invest" your free time and try blogging. In the worst case, you will have another social platform (in my opinion better than many others) where you can show your art, write about life or find interesting personalities. I have been writing my blog intermittently since the end of 2017 and I don't regret it. I write about my art, games and life. I have friends from Finland, Australia, Malaysia on this blog. Again, if you join, you should expect to have a good time, not get rich. And keep your passwords safe.

I intend to write this in one facebook art group. Do you think that this is a good/fair invitation to Hive?

It seems ok, not knowing they types of individuals who may read it makes it difficult to determine how it may be received but on face value it seems ok. Good luck.

thank you.

My comment was deleted right away. Shame.

Really? Fucktards.

I hate social media and Facebook is probably the worst. #wankers

You are right. Yesterday(?) I joined another art group...And today I left it because every second post was created by AI. Those AI images were getting hundreds of likes as well...And many people were complaining that AI art is not recognized as art.

AI is shit...it's not people being creative, it's being being dumb.

One person was saying that normal artist start selling their art at around 500 dollars and he is ,,only'' getting 35 dollars for AI created prints. As someone who has never sold a piece for as much as 500 and has sold for 20 and 50 eur(and gifted many pieces away) I feel no sympathy for that AI ,,artist''.

My dad was an artist so I understand it somewhat. Sitting back and letting AI (the computer) make a picture doesn't seem like a human creation at all, but people would argue with me on that I guess.

>My dad was an artist

I enjoy making art but know little about art. Could you please check this post and tell me what style my paintings are? I only know they are not realistic.

I'm not sure what style they are, maybe a new category needs to be invented. I'm sure my dad would have a better answer but I didn't really get his talent. What do you think it is, the style,

Thank you. I am not sure either. I checked most categories in Saatchi art https://www.saatchiart.com/paintings
But I didn't see anything similar. I would probably just like to call it dreamy art.

I think there's nothing wrong with creating your own name.

My dad used to say, there's no bad art, just art.

What I guess he meant is art is unique to the creator or the observer and can't really be defined as easily and conveniently as good or bad. I think the same goes for how it is categorised...art just is, and that it exists should be enough.

But what do I know?

Excellent approaches this week, here my selected topic with no swear words!:

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@nbarrios67/weekend-engagement-211-language-swear

Happy Weekend!.

No swear words? Ok, no worries.

We live is abject darkness in a modern world in part of Africa. We only hear that nations have celebrated tens of years experiencing no power outage. To us, it is not possible because down here, nothing like that exists.

Yeah, Australia has a very stable power grid and it's rare for the electricity to drop out which is great. Of course, many other countries don't enjoy that benefit for many reasons I guess.

For Austrialia and parts of Europe and the Americas, it is understandable when there is power outage. Here in sub-Saharan Africa, power supply is a huge failure. There has never been a time when we enjoyed power supply for ten day consecutively in the last ten to twenty years.

Why is the power so bad there in your opinion?

Corruption in high places of authority.

Yep, that's what I thought you'd say.

That's the basis for most African problems.

Yes, that's plain to see even from all the way over here.

The poem is... hahaha great!!!! Especially when he leaves hahaha, we wish it would never end!!!

Woww i liked all but all the themes!!!! You put me in a dilemma but I'll solve it!!!!

Have a wonderful weekend, and do whatever you like!!!!

You say you're in a dilemma every week but always seem to find the right topic to work with.

Good luck.

Here's another weekend poem:

Oh weekend how I love thee
You are so good and so lovely
Both of your days start with 'S'
The perfect time to de-stress
Oh weekend your time must be plucked
And without you I'd most surely be fucked

This poem is even better!!!! I love it and Sunday... my Sunday starts with D hahaha it's great!

Yes, I like them all, then I sit down, look at them... analyse and see which one appeals to me the most. You are very inventive with your themes.

Next week is going to be a super cool week!!!!

haha I liked that poem. 😆😆

You must have taken that photo in New Zealand.

There's gazillions of bonus points on the line, I'm looking for specifics.

Details: It's probably in Queenstown and you went hiking in Milford Sound.

Nope, not Queenstown.

😆 ok then

It is definitely in Fiordland National Park, Te Wahipounamu.

A very motivational poem hahaha!!!!! Living without electricity? 🤔. Interesting topics. Greetings and happy start of the week ☺️

What can I say? I'm an excellent poet...but I'm also humble so I'll not say it. Ok, I already did I guess. 😋

I admire the excess of humility 😂😂. Greetings and nice day. ☺️

Happy weekend friends
This week topics is super and I am having a great challenge chosing from them but I know I will make a right choice.

Do have a great weekend

Challenges bring us the opportunity to push our boundaries and achieve more than we thought possible.

Have a good weekend.

Definitely, and I will be choosing the best.

Thank you enjoy your weekend

Please am i writing on all the topics?

Please Is it compulsory To write on all the topics?

Choose only one and follow the guidelines.

Ducks care not for weekends!
They just wanna be ducks
Floating aloof in a pond
Flying away
when winter has come.

I met a duck who didn't give a fuck
He stayed in his pond never going beyond
He didn't want to fly there's nothing in the sky
Just float and stay safely on the ground

Just float and stay safely on the ground
such is the fate of many birds
having feathers sometimes isn't enough
to rise to the sky, so they just swoon

There once was a bird named moo moo
He was a fucken big ass emu
He had feathers and wings, and other bits
But couldn't fly which gave him the shits

There once was a duck named Shelly
it ate bread till it had a full belly
her wings were to weak
to carry her fat cheeks
she died soon. She wasn't healthy

Shelly had a friend called Mary
Whose life at the pond was scary
She kept her head down but was killed in a hunt
And Shelly thought oh what a ~~cunt~~ pity

Pitiful indeed are such stories
of ducks and their pond worries
Shelly and Mary are but examples
of poor luck grabbing ankles
and demise becomes a series.

The pond is a dangerous place
Shot, drowned, a slap on the face
With care one can thrive just like on Hive
Enjoy a life feeling much more alive

A life to enjoy in such a place
gives plenty and returns at rates
ever increasing towards a future
soon to come to every user
by Hive's transparent grace

There was a girl called Grace, she had a lovely face
Her personality was shit which wasn't a hit
So she had no friends and that's how the story ends

[IMAGE: https://media.tenor.com/3yPBPC_dwe8AAAAC/leonardo-dicaprio-clapping.gif]

Lol.

It was a nice end to the story

> "What job would you be terrible at and why?"

I am on it bro!

I bet nobody can guess what job/profession I will choose as the focal point of my post? Anyone does guess it before I write about it and I will award them with a shit ton of ecensy points...

Artists Depiction of some of the earliest truckers...

Lol...that's you and me on the way to the range!

A job that you'd be bad at... 🤔

I'm interested to know.

Another weekend is here again, what a wonderful topic, I will surely participate oooo!!

Yes, it's the weekend because if it isn't right now I'd be way late to work!

and here we go again!! great topics and i already choose one! have a nice weekend :)

I saw your entry and liked it a lot. Happy weekend.

thanksss! just thinking about being in the dark gives me chills! that post was very honest hahaha

Sometimes good things happen in the dark though...or with the light on.

It continues to bet on the variety of topics and I think it's good because it generates more creativity.
Speaking of creativity, I think it's great the way you started because beyond the quality of the poem, what is really interesting is the different way of starting a work.
Sometimes I get carried away and try to make poetry and if the recipient likes it or I feel good doing it I am more than satisfied.

My favorite themes are related to education for the future, living with or without electricity and solving a mystery.

But, I must participate in a topic and education is one of my passions, so I think that's where my participation will be.

Excellent image, but, I don't know the origin.
Happy weekend. Cheers and best regards.

Hello and thanks for your comment. I look forward to your post and hope you have a good weekend.

Hi this is very good this week, electricity doing its thing

https://hive.blog/hive-168869/@lisfabian/week-211-or-a-theme-that-fits-me-like-a-glove

Cheers, have a good weekend.

Wow..?

WTF PeakD..!?!

[IMAGE: https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/krazzytrukker/23tbpcAmqBYmTuP7mZfB6wSdkr9nBYZKz3nPA56ThZMRxayQzhfiws3dxB5YiM4WfaAj1.jpg]

So I clicked on this a.i. bullshizz. Hit the critical analysis only to be told what an "unbalanced piece of shit" that my post was...

Fucking a.i....

Bub bye PeakD, never to be used again by meeee...

[IMAGE: https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/krazzytrukker/EoCg8PR3HXZkg1kSPGUYmn976YX2TeeYsJJKXC7gfLjvb8stEZgFSWBvzfm72npWKgn.jpg]

Yeah, it's been there for a while which doesn't seem like a good idea to me. I like Peakd mostly but they got that wrong...promoting AI responses? Fucktards.

Thanks bro. I was hoping you would agree. Some will like that I suppose.

I believe a.i. is only going to be abused and used as a weapon. And that will destroy any good that could be done by it.

Real life examples are already being seen in Gaza with the use of the lovely "Lavander" a.i. threat assessment programming for killing and collateral damage. Much of this mass killing being carried out by drones. Straight up terminator skynet stuff.

Yeah man, the world as we knew it is not the world as we know it and not in a good way. There's so many things that people embrace but which in fact are of detriment, or will be long term.

I don't worry per se, but it's worrying if you get my drift.

Are there any other front ends to use. I only know of ecensy and PeakD. What do you use.

There was another app I used early on. The name escapes me.

It stopped being supported and became buggy.

You can use hive.blog: https://hive.blog/@krazzytrukker

When that AI thing came on Peakd I was like WTF and if I see AI comments, even if I suspect them I rarely respond, and issue downvotes. Fucken AI.

My entry

An interesting theme for the #weekend-engagement contest greets us again, I am very interested in all the themes you shared, brother, this is my entry for this week's #weekend-engagement contest.

My entry : https://hive.blog/hive-168869/@juwon-btc/electricity-is-very-compulsory

Ok.

These weeks topics are interesting
Here's my entry

Hello everyone
Here's my entry https://inleo.io/@jezmaine/why-engineering-isnt-for-me-79d

That is an incredible poem, but I like the one you wrote to @avdesing better. Very good themes this week as always. Happy weekend and may this one not end so quickly.

Thanks, I'm really not much of a poet, but now and then I let my averageness escape the confines of my mind. 😋

I, myself, am not good at poetry, although I like to read it. But I'm bad at rhyming.

Rhyming is about timing, not miming or climbing. Ok, not about timing at all, or being tall or taking a fall, one just needs to find words that sound the same, make it a game, not to try would be a shame. 🤔

Actually I have tried it, but I haven't dared to share it, it's something else on my to-do list. Thanks for that, now I have a better concept of what rhyme is in poetry.

Yes, that second one was super nice! I loved it! I hope this weekend doesn't go by so fast! Hugs @doriangel 😀

Hi, this week I like three of the themes, we'll see which one I'm more inclined to go for. ☺️

Ok, have a nice weekend also.

I'm doing well, thanks for asking, and I hope you are too.

Thanks for your entry, it's not late.
