I miss Amsterdam and I miss Steemfest, so here's a 420 meme on April 20th. Sorry for the not so politically-correct meme, but I guess it's okay. It's four-twenty, and I'm a Chinese trying to make a Successful Black Man meme in English. I've never mentioned this before, but my long-haul Amsterdam trip back then was made possible by @roelandp and @nextgencrypto - so I would like to take this chance to thank them publicly, at least around these parts of the cryptoverse.
While I don't tend to address the "political" parts of Steemit in the open, this is something that I've been wanting to talk about. There's no doubt that this network is filled with all kinds of people from saints to sinners, and money matters inherent in this social platform usually gets arguments quite heated around here with our differences in actions and opinions. But no matter what we may think of certain bad whales, exploitative users, and inefficient developers, I hope we can default to the belief that we are many people with our own struggles and imperfections. The best way forward is always to learn, fix, forgive, and find ways to be compassionate in our solutions.
Love and peace, y'all!
The biggest room in the world is room for improvement. Steemit keeps getting better and more interesting by the day. I' m loving watching it grow and evolve.
It'll be nice to have a good way to summarize stuff happening on the network everyday :)
This would be great because I miss out too much sometimes
Not praising, thanking in a personal context.
Who's that guy ? Maybe if he had red eyes ... I don't get it
Haha.. here's an explanation of the meme..

Somehow doesn't really roll off the tongue with those words in that sequence..
Sometimes words are better when they don't.
Steemfest 2.0?!? I hope it happens...
It'll happen for sure.. :)
I think you need one of my kitty cats from my last post to cuddle with you and one of my squeezing Mammasitta hugs :) Amsterdammmmm and I also need a hug !

It's the best to get 2!!!! from small on and you will never stop being hugged :) ever again
Keep it high!
Lol the right account for the right post xD

420 is usually a peaceful and happy day...
If you got em,
Puff, puff...
No way i have em, it's illeeegal here. Lol
Haha love and peace man, happy 420!
Compassion is the operative word. Nice post!
Thanks! Happy 420 :)
I still have nightmares for not going to Steemfest. Happy 420!
2nd one should be in US, and it's probably way harder for me to attend :(
Thats a cool message. I totally agree! Woot woot for the peace!
War for peace may work short-term but not way for long-term..
Eloquently said there @kevinwong. That meme is on point!
Thanks @sandstorm. Btw i asked a mate in bangkok regarding the food stalls, and he said that it's probably not real news..!
Dang man, thanks for the heads up @kevinwong! I figured I'd never get caught up in the fake news circle, but I guess we can all be fooled.
I just read Kobkarn Wattanavrangkul, Thailand's Minister of Tourism and Sports' statement that the street food vendors would not be banned as reported by several media outlets. They just want a more hygienic standard and uniformity amongst vendors. I've thrown an edit into my post reflecting this.
It might effectively scare away and close down some stalls with that though.. no prob - I would dread seeing BKK's food scene melt away!
This fake scare caused a huge ripple itself, I hope the vendors will be OK and can adapt, I had a feeling the scene wouldn't be going anywhere, that's a huge part of Thailand's character.
Amen
Lol amen brother..
Excellent post!! thank you for sharing
Ganja Girls approves!
