$CUB has reached new lows #cub

One thing at a time. #cub is overlooked right now but it will pick up. Have to get some basic things in place. Leothreads is the gateway into all this.

They need to look into building DeFi into that.

Ask Khal about the due cub report, please.

I'm counting on this picking up as well and try to show Khal there's demand for info on cub, Cubdefi amd etc.

There is a demand for info on a lot of things. I wish they would be more timely with their posts and updates on stuff.

Sigh I don't have much hope for this thing honestly not unless it starts get integrated more.

I think the burns will keep the price in this levels so one might average buys to start earning. I'm wondering why there's little or no support for LBI's cublife or there's no Leo account posting daily and using rewards to either burn cub or support MTB

plz make it stop

I always love seeing when people ask for the old UI

Old UI is dead forever. Never to come back

Enjoy progress frens

I still think the old UI is better for long form content but I think it can get better. Maybe when you start rolling out new features.

That's it! Let us welcome the progression of the new as it unfolds nd leave the old at the past.

Haha, deadly UI is gone forever, we now in a modernized UI.

big facts

Yeah, for sure, thanks to you and your team for such a wonderful job done. Big Ups

Lol. That is human nature. I remember going from DOS based to GUI based at work. No one but me wanted to change.

evolve or go extinct

Absolutely, we see a lot of people go 'extinct

difference is you could still use Dos , cant use the old ui

you can also still use dial up

I don’t see anyone here using dial up over high bandwidth internet

but the option is there for the choice to be made.

not everyone has the same means and access to stuff

Not at our work place. They took away the option

Bugs and glitches makes them to remember the old UI but its improvement.

This new UI is a good idea but the time for indexing is still long unlike the Old UI and twitter which is companion. Sometimes, threads just disappear on its own.

evolution is painful, but fruitful

is Long form dead on Leo?

have you explored the Explore tab?

If you are attached to "explore," why not something like the old Google option: A click on "Explore" directly serves up a rotating curated blog post or a thread with LOTS of action. #suggestions

yup they just look like a thread

As an old usability geek, I'll just say that your navigation is your most valuable real estate. Leave "Home" as is, lose "Explore" and replace with "Blogs" lose the hashtag and replace a page type icon. Make it obvious.

LeoThreads might need a backup ad system because coinzilla looks to constantly be running out of ads to serve up lately...

I think there are a couple of services like that arent there? Perhaps they should try to incorporate them.

Is that just for CoinZilla as a whole, or did they stop ads being served here?

Funniest thing I saw all day on 'the blue bird app'...Other than 'influencers' shilling some #meme coin...

always a classic

LOL that is funny.

Jajaja that's very funny!

lol I love it

Hahaha! Funny misunderstanding

Hah! That's one of the funnier things I've seen in a long time!

if you thread, you should give small upvotes to the the threads you appreciate the most. Let's make #Microearning more of a thing!

Without a doubt. That is what some of us strive for here.

Yeah, that's true... I've noticed a lot of us don't upvote 😢

I still give my upvote to some threads here but sometimes, I would have forgotten. Upvotes are a great thing here as it also encourage people.

When creating a threadstorm the protocol that works best is to:

  • post top thread
  • keep replying (commenting) under the main thread

do not comment on your comment. that buries the rest of the info and makes it hard to find.

@mcoinz79

Very useful tips, I appreciate you

Hope it helps. Makes it easier to read.

It is nice to write threadstorms but even more important to make sure people can read them.

thank you!

No problem. I went to read the threadstorm and saw only one comment until I realized you buried the two others. Want them all in a row.

I will do a sample threadstorm.

Thanks for the tip.

do not comment on your comment. that buries the rest of the info and makes it hard to find.

I have been doing that.

Go back and review it. Think of how hard it is read what you wrote and how its gets buried underneath itself.

Man! The bear run is brutal. Many hive projects are hanging on a thread. It not even the case of no support, people are just uninterested. Welp!
Thanks to Leofinance for keeping the fire burning.

That is how it always works in bear markets. We have seen this repeatedly over the years. Those that survive the bear come out stronger.

But it is tough to go through.

Are we still in a bear? I mean it's been like a 10k swing in price...

ironically, we are also hanging on a thread

Just a different kind of thread

Its a life saver and its ability to incorporates with the platform and Thread coupled with this campaign promotes Hive and its"ecosystem

burning hot!!!

organizing our day helps us stay productive, reduce stress, and make the most of our time. We can take small steps each day and soon it will become a habit.
#threadstorm
1/🧵

Start your day with a to-do list. Prioritize tasks based on importance and urgency.
2/🧵

facts.
doing it before the week starts, defining what your goals are, tweaking them to make sure you get them done, & properly budgeting time makes things so much easier.

i believe things will go faster and more accurate

Set clear goals to give your day direction and purpose. Break them down into manageable steps.
3/🧵

Allocate time blocks for different activities to stay focused and efficient.
4/🧵

Consider your energy levels. Schedule challenging tasks during peak productivity times.
5/🧵

Don't forget to schedule breaks and downtime for rest and rejuvenation.
6/🧵

Use technology tools like calendars and task management apps to stay organized and track progress.
7/🧵

Learn to delegate tasks when possible to lighten your workload.
8/🧵

Stay flexible and adapt to unexpected changes. Have a backup plan in case things don't go as planned.
9/🧵

Avoid multitasking and focus on one task at a time for better concentration and quality work.
10/🧵

Reflect on your day, celebrate accomplishments, and identify areas for improvement.
11/🧵

I will keep your recommendations in mind, I need to stop procrastinating.

A lot of tasks can be done easily just with organization

Fully agree with you, organise the day, to get maximum out of it. I try, even if I don't fully succeed, to follow a daily plan. Thank you for the threadstorm.

all of us we don’t always succeed but at least we try at the end it will work

Hey guys, after two days, I'm back here on the threads. I needed a break! This will be a more relaxed and superficial thread. What do you want to talk about regarding the expectations for this event?

1/🧵

This is where you can find us. Leothreads brings a new form of engagement to Hive.

Glad you find it more than just a place to go for the contest.

Welcome back. Lets thread away.

Certainly! I'm finding out that this is a great place to share some thoughts! Let's keep it up!

We are. It is good to see weekend warriors showing back up. time to get the numbers up.

Don't talk to me about numbers, haha. But since you mentioned it, I still need to create 600 threads to have a shot at third place.

Go for it. LOL

Yeah the numbers are growing, that is what is important.

I think everyone needed a much deserved break after the battle! So I'm not gonna hold it against you :P

I may not have fully charged energy, but I'm still managing to keep things lively!

Hahahaha yes, my brain was no braining. The power went down today and I was gonna draw on that time, but I touched my bed and my power went down too hahaha

I think most of us here are participating in the event organized by Leo Finance, including myself, of course. My initial goal when this competition started was just to aim for the top 20, without much ambition.

2/🧵

My daily life is very hectic, and I don't have much time to spend on the PC. Being among the top 20 would be great, a big achievement!

3/🧵

But after a few weeks, I'm getting closer and closer to the top positions. Wow, I never imagined that I could compete with so many competent people and reach the top 7 (at the moment).

4/🧵

Well, since I'm so close, why not aim for the top positions? I'm giving my best, and I'm really happy with the results so far. And I don't even need to mention how cool it is to exchange ideas with so many people here.

5/🧵

Just imagine having a conversation with Taskmaster, Khal, and other big names here on Hive! It's really awesome! In summary, it's been a great experience for me.

6/🧵

Oh, and I almost forgot: there's still the prize! But maybe that's not so relevant, lol

7/🧵

#threadstorm incoming;

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is set to launch his presidential bid in a live event with Elon Musk.

1/🧵

With DeSantis’ strong track record as Florida’s governor, his bid for the presidency is generating significant buzz.

2/🧵

Teaming up with Elon Musk, adds a unique twist to DeSantis’ campaign. Their event promises to bring together technology, leadership, and a vision for the future.

3/🧵

As the presidential race heats up, all eyes will be on DeSantis’ launch event. It’s a pivotal moment that could shape the political landscape in the coming years.

4/🧵

money trees is the perfect place for shading .

LOL that is awesome. Absolutely.

I'm glad you can relate .

We need to keep growing the money trees and build a forest.

Yeah right! That's the plan

hahaha that’s the naked truth

I just a transaction on Ethereum and it only cost me 2 bucks in gas fees.....What a steal!!!

you used Ethereum? What's the world come to?

lol didn't have a choice. but hopefully, this is the last time i ever have to use it lolol

At $2, Leothreads would cost about $10K per day.

Just insanity. But like you and I have talked about, it's a bankers coin. The gas fees don't matter when you are exchanging millions.

Nope. Then it is secondary. We are going to see a great deal of activity that cant take place on other chains have to go on here.

*did Jongo...Did...I just DID a transaction...

I fucked up my last #ThreadStorm but fortunately I was set straight! It won't happen again lol

It is all a learning process. I just did a sample one for people to see.

Is not just you. Me too
It won't happen again

What's your favourite #Music style?

Let's see if the Poll feature works the first time!

The poll works well. You aced it.

I'm going for pop.. always love listening to it..

Classical. Not the Western classical though, Tamilisai classical.

Great pic. Love seeing nature. Really helps to provide a soothing over oneself.

Thanks. I'm cool with providing some soothing while threaders scroll!

A welcomed relief. Keep dropping them. It is what threads needs. Some different type of content showing up.

beautiful like glass

Incredible day, a few years ago

The man at the bar
drinking to forget the things
that happened last night.

#bcpoets #apoemaday #threads #zapfic

thats one of the remedies of forgetting your problem for a bit... alcohol

I don’t know if it’s actually a remedy, but it is the way a lot of us cope with things. 😉

When the drink left him, he will still remember his problem
#alive

And when the man at the bar wakes up the next morning, he will still remember the things that happened...lol
I Don really believe that drinking can make us forget any occurrence, it's just temporarily

Maybe sometimes it can help us let go of things a little, but more than that, I think it just numbs people until time works it’s magic. Often, though, alcohol just makes things worse.

And when he is okay, he will come back to remember what happened.

It’s a vicious cycle.

What are you planning to change your lives forever?

Over past 2 years I've started a journey to achieve financial freedom starting from the bottom and in this #threadstorm I'm going to share a little bit of my story.

#life #freedom

1/🧵

I was looking for cryptos to invest and #play2earn games to join and ended up finding one called "Splinterlands".

A few weeks later I met a discord community called #hivebr and many people welcomed me and gave me tips about Hive.

5/🧵

I was unemployed and there was little time left for the money I made selling items in online games to run out.

When it was over, all that would be left would be living on the street, wow, a tragic end.

2/🧵

Last 3 weeks I was called to assume a public tender that I had done 2 years ago. Despite being only a minimum wage, this was enough to survive.

I started there in August 2021 and I was already using my time to study investment.

3/🧵

The salary was low but I was skipping meals to save 25% to invest. I would go for the traditional market but in September I got to know the crypto market, you remember well what the market was like.

4/🧵

Since then I never stopped investing and studying. I took another public tender and was called to work in August 2022.

My salary improved 300% and I never had to withdraw from Hive. I grew my profile and engaged with many projects.

8/🧵

At time I was told that it would be possible to create content to receive positive votes and I started for extra income.

Since then I've never missed a week and I'm trying to be a better content creator every day.

6/🧵

I continued to study every day to better understand the cryptocurrency market, economics and investments.

I still didn't eat right to invest at least 25% and in January 2022 I received a raise that slightly improved my situation.

7/🧵

And since then I have continued to give 100% of my effort to make it all worthwhile. It's hard work and requires a lot of dedication, but I'm willing to do it to achieve financial #freedom!

This is my story.

Threadstorm end.

que legal cara, parabens pelas conquistas e pela perseverança!

hive has come through in so many ways, thank God you located hive at the right time of need...

It was a stroke of luck in the midst of so much going on at the Bull Market top.

You really are a beast! You have accomplished so much and your experience will help others find their way to financial freedom.

You are someone who is consistent and works hard, which proves that every effort pays off. Thanks for this! :3

Consistency and hard work was the formula I found to run after success. I just need to catch up xD

hell yeah dude. top tier threadstorm

I'm glad you liked it!

Great story! It should be seen by all members of this community!

It's good to know that people face difficulties like ours and find their own ways to overcome

Splinterlands was my path into #hive as well. Glad you found your way here :)

I was really lucky to find Splinterlands and I'm so glad I did.

Leofinance is kicking ass. Listening to the #ama, there are a lot of plans over the next 60-90 days.

We are not going to recognize this place in a few months.

Lots of features to bring people in and keep them around

Yeah. It is interesting to see a bit of what is planned. The debugging is still the primary focus and for good reason. But lots of feature updates after that.

Exciting to see. We are only 23 days into the UI being in beta.

Hehehe.. this is interesting and I am eager to see what this place will look like then.

We all are. It is going to be exciting to what unfolds. I cant wait to see the impact of what is planned.

You are right. Many things will change. ManyMany projects will join LeoFinance

I dont know if other projects will join.

the only thing we will still have is all the weirdos like you and me

Yeah weirdos never change. We are relics from the past.

well, one of us is a relic LOL

Yeah. The one without the tattoos.

#spanish
hay que irle a comentar a binance sober leofinance! es una nueva misión en zealy, a hacerla mientras dure

evolution is painful, but fruitful - me

Gotta keep at it.

but we want it NOW! Not #Soon enough!

This is truthful!

Fact! And not only painful, but often also very time consuming!

Taking the first step towards evolution is the hardest, then just keep walking in search of becoming someone better

#gmfrens :)

I've been kind of knocked out from the tooth pain that turned into a nasty infection but it's getting better!
I just want to shout out all the Lion Slayers from the last weekend's battle!
I'll be ready for the next battle 💪

oof that's no good hopefully it doesn't cause any damage

Waiting for the next appointment to see if there's a fix..taking antibiotics to clear most of the swelling before they can do something..I still look like a puffer fish lol

Drink lots of of rum!

ahaha I actually tried that during the weekend when drugs weren't doing anything..don't have rum but I tried homemade liquor 🤣

Sorry to hear you are ailing. Never fun when having tooth pain. That is nasty.

Glad you are on the road to recovery.

Thank you! I tried to thread from my phone but couldn't even concentrate with this annoying pain jeez. But better drugs are by my side now!

A bit of Brandy can help.

It's the second person in a short time scrolling the threads that has a tooth pain, today was a difficult day for you. I hope you get well soon!

tooth pain is one of the most bitter experiences in life I will never wish for my even enemy. Speedy recovery dear

How you get better soon, tooth pain is the worse thing, can't ignore it.
And thanks! hahah See you next battle! If there is one... I hope not too soon, I still need sleep xD

I had a pretty bad day, came online on #threads and you guys literally cracked me up with the #pidgin trend😂😂😂😂

You all rock!😂

you are welcome. Ask me to try #pidgin everytime you are sad

😅 ego fall for her hand. #pidgin

what does this mean? :)

Means your #pidgin will get better and she’d be surprised and wouldn’t know what hit her. 😅 she wouldn’t be able to cope. I think the last one is a better explanation

ah okay. ha ha this is so funny that the #pidgin tag is trending no 1

#pidgin the people are loving it

No wahala #pidgin

just wahala #pidgin

Ohhhhh God😂😂😂😂

#pidgin

ha ha #pidgin dey no1 tag. smile please

Who is this man please?😂😂😂😂

#pidgin

Glad we could help. We dey for you #pidgin 😂

Una thank you oo

#pidgin

Na wetin dey make threads sweet. If day wan oppress you, run enter threads, las las you go dey alright

#threads247 #pidgin #hivenaija

Wise words, you know the matters 😂 #pidgin

I hear oooo

#pidgin

See as we dey happy say we make you laugh 😂 #pidgin

Lol I dey tell you

#pidgin

Laugh my dear, problem nor dey finish #pidgin

haha, I also just came to see it tending oh,

Netflix announced they are going to charge $8 per shared account.

Do you think that will backfire on them?

Is it aside from the normal subscription payment? That´s too much and I guess people might switch to another site.

I think what is happening is people are passwords, i.e. multiple people usig the same account. So to do that, it will charge $8 a month for the extra people using it.

𝕿𝖍𝖊𝖞 𝖏𝖚𝖘𝖙 𝖉𝖚𝖌 𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖎𝖗 𝖔𝖜𝖓 𝖌𝖗𝖆𝖛𝖊.

Some might say they were already on that path but this could accelerate it.

I have no use for them but they have a lot of subs. They might have less after this.

I will cancel them in a heart beat....Only thing I'm subbed to right now is like Amazon Prime and Apple TV.

Yeah it is going to be interesting. Streaming is turning out to be a net loss for many of these firms. Netflix is encountering problems.

100% gunna backfire

I am surprised they havent seen a drop in subscription yet. It appears all streaming services are facing headwinds.

i think when it actually happens, we will see a reaction. most people don't pay enough attention to even know this is coming.

That could be true. People only notice as it appears on the bill.

Reminder:

Thursday we will have @khaleelkazi on #cryptmaniacs.

We will get all the info out of him the community needs. @jongolson and I are not above waterboarding him to get the info. He will not keep any secrets from us.

No one can resist the charm of the Taskmaster

What are you buttering me up for? I feel the hammer is about to fall here.

😅 oh just stating the obvious:

that would be nice to have him.

Another 5k to @leo.voter Total 25k.

Why?

Supports the community and I get more of those juicy $LEO tokens in return ;)

this is the way

That's a beast mode move @jongolson 💪🦁😎 ROAR!

I love the daily $LEO in my wallet...Moar powering up!!!

Nice do you have a end goal you what to hit? 100k?

Yeah I'm going to shoot for 100k before the end of the year. Hopefully I can hit it and even get closer to 150k.

I am pretty much all in my delegation

Just such a no-brainer for building your $LEO

Yep. And that $LEO is being bought on the open market. That means there is more buy demand from the additional you placed.

Yessir, it's truly remarkable how epic this is all becoming.

It is what happens when you are building. That is a rarity in the cryptocurrency world.

Nice one. Big delegations, bigger returns.

Helps the community, and helps my $LEO stash...Win win!

Fun question for my #hivenaija and #ghanian people... Who go fit write full post with only #pidgin? 😅

Let me make a #threadstorm about my day and how frustrated I was because of something that happened generally to a lot of people. Stay tuned!!!

1/ 🧵

Oh nice, I'll be just right here to read and go through your day with you 😊 bring the gist on!

Please, do. Be my guest on this 😏😂

This all happened last night when I was in the mood to thread and engage a little on Hive. Well, I had just finished watching an interesting movie, titled "Enough" by Jennifer Lopez.

2/ 🧵

I turned on my data and noticed messages I sent before watching the movie were not sent. What was happening? I thought it was my phone. I restarted my phone and it was still the same issue.

3/ 🧵

this has happened to me before asks it is very annoying indeed, I also used to off my phone several times but nothing better,

There was no network and I was frustrated and pissed off at that moment and went to bed angrily. The next day which is today, I woke up as usual around 4 pm to begin my day, the network went and was able to engage on Hive.

4/ 🧵

Around 9 pm, I was through with my chores and drafted my article to be posted. Then came another battle of no network. I was trying to download an image online and it got stuck there. I was demotivated.

5/ 🧵

After many trials, I ended up posting around 11 am. I logged in to Discord to chat and make my complaint to my friends and I got to know they had the same experience since last night. Then it was not only me but a general issue.

6/ 🧵

I planned to come to #thread to spend an hour but the network deprived me. I left my phone to prepare my meal. Then get prepared for my home lesson this evening, hoping the network would be normal.

7/ 🧵

Since morning, I couldn´t do much online and tonight after returning from the home lesson, the network is now stable and I hope it stays that way. I began with Zealy so I could complete my tasks and claim my XP.

8/ 🧵

Right now, many things are piled up for me and I can only do the ones I can do while leaving the rest till tomorrow. This is how my day went as it was a bad and frustrating one.

9/ 🧵

Sorry about the network issue, It seems everyone experienced the ssa thing too, bad network can be frustrating.

That's tough, I myself have experienced many times that I lose my HIVE blog drafts and lose my motivation. Lately, I've been drafting to Gmail and pasting it into the HIVE website later because it autosaves every so often.

Sorry about the network issue. It happens occasionally. That's the reason why I have two Sms. Hope you are able to check up with things. Cheers!

Mtn is the only fair network that works fine in my city here. This is why I get frustrated and had no choice of switching to an alternative like Airtel. Besides, Airtel drains data too much. How are you doing, Nonso?

sorry to hear that having problems with the network is horrible! I hope you can do everything you need

Yes, I will try my best and when I am tired, I will take my rest.

I Care to know about your day..

Yea, you can go through it to feel my pain. Lol

How are you, dear?

Sorry about the whole issue.

I'm doing fine, thanks 🤗, and how are you doing ma?

I am fine also. The network is behaving normally now. Lol

What a fuckin day. Hopefully tomorrow will be more chill

I wish the 'following' tab only showed top level Threads.

I'd like to be able to log in of a morning and see, for example, your Threads to chat and vote.

But they're hard to find, lost in all the replies.

i think this as well. leave the reply level threads for the tags section

Show today?

Nope, Thursdays at 9pm EST

right, ser

What made today 'not chill'?

Busy buzzy work day, the usual

I feel ya fren. Had a hell of a day myself and still far from over

You're gunna make it

Also, GM 💚😵

Ya casi está lista la próxima actualización de Ragnarok. Es una actualización del desarrollo del juego y también de la interfaz. Creo que a la comunidad le va a gustar. #spanish

Mmmm todos estamos esperando ese desarrollo, ojalá estemos listos para cuando el juego sea lanzado tener suficientes nfts para divertirnos a lo grande en un juego que pretende ser una maravilla y un resumudero importante.

Here is the #threadcast for the #nymets at Chicago #cubs.

This is the first game of their three game set.

@jimmy.adames @tokenizedsociety

It was encouraging to see that the Mets won series against the Guardians and Rays and those teams went kept on winning. Those were good teams. Let's hope the Mets are over the hump at playing lousy against the lesser teams #mlb #sports

It is important to get the wins against good teams. They blew so many games that they, on paper, should have won.

Oh well, dig a hole and climb out of it.

Speaking of rookies, is there a draft in the MLB similar to the NFL?

1/ Yes for American kids. They draft from both high school and college. However, unlike the #nfl and #nba, these kids have 3-5 years in the minor leagues before they see the majors.

2/ Outside the US, there is what is called the international free agency market where the kids are signed at about 16 to contracts. Each team has a certain amount in bonus money it can spend and it has to spread it over its signings.

3/ Alvarez, the kid we just mentioned, is from VZ so he was an IFA signing as a 16 yr old. He is now in the majors at 21.

The #mets won the last 5 in a row. Need to keep the ball rolling.

They have to win series. They can't sweep every team, but if the Mets can continue winning series then at the right time reel off a long winning streak then it could erase the bad start @taskmaster4450le Baby Mets gave the Vest a butt kick!

They have to win series. They can't sweep every team, but if the Mets can continue winning series then at the right time reel off a long winning streak then it could erase the bad start @taskmaster4450le Baby Mets gave the Vest a butt kick!

That is the key. Sweeps in the big leagues are tough.

Take 2/3 in Chicago and get out of town to Denver.

The #mets should beat the #cubs but should doesnt come into play.

It's easier to say that when the team is at home. Cubs will give them a good fight, but it would be huge for Megill to go into Wrigley and pitch a good game and the bats have to come alive earlier in games. Take leads not give 'em.

Yeah. Megill needs to duplicate what he did against Tampa.

The Cubs have a few hitters that will be a problem if Megill and the rest of the pitching staff is not prepared for them. With that said Mets beat two pretty good teams recently. Smyly is off to a very good start 4-1 and ERA under 3.

They have Swanson who killed the Mets as a Brave. So hope it was the uniform and his luck ended when he changed teams.

Swanson is having a very good year. That was one of the best off season signings hands down @taskmaster4450le

Trea Turner is off to a slow start.

The Mets also will face Stroman I believe.

Cool! Let's go! Gonna be a long night so might as well have some fun watching the game

We need to get to 150 threads in there. Lets get it active.

I hope it doesnt freezes, but let's give it a go!

@jimmy.adames

How about the start Trea Turner got with the #phils?

Did you imagine he would have such a rough go of it. He was very consistent, at a high level, through his career.

That is a case of where the WBC may have something to do with his slow start. He was on fire during the World Baseball Classic. His brother had a similar bad start with his big first year contract with Texas last season I believe.

Actually, it wasn't Trea. I was thinking of the Seagers. But yes, @taskmaster4450le and playing with Philadelphia, I read they are booing him hard lol. He did admit that he would boo him too.

Alvarez is not starting and fans are chirping and I can understand that, but he has gained respect for his work ethic and the pitchers like throwing to him and he can hit. He will be the starting catcher for many years to come.

He will be but why not start him on a day off. Unless Sanchez has huge numbers against the Cubs SP.

That probably makes the least sense. If it was Nido I can understand that, because Nido is a very good catcher sucks as a hitter but pitchers like to throw to him. Sanchez is horrible. With that said, Sanchez came up hot so let's see.

Yeah although Nido needs to be DFA.

He sucks and is really nothing more than a journeyman catcher. They are a dime a dozen.

We need Sanchez to face Blake Snell. He crushes that guy lol.

Well it is an interesting approach by Buck. As long as they keep winning.

Buck is starting to show how he is anti-kid.

He likes the vets evidently.

The Baby Mets have proven how important they are to this team. Not that they are going to hit 30 homers and drive in 90 this season, but it allowed the veterans to breathe, start to have fun and in some ways shown up by the kids - but good.

Alvarez would hit 30 if he played full time. He is already at 5 in spite of his issues. Imagine if he gets on a roll. He is the type that can hit 12 in a month.

Did a search and found a list of pitchers Sanchez has faced and Smyly is not on the list, but he is batting .333 since being called up, which of course is misleading because it's only been a few at-bats and only one RBI @taskmaster4450le

Yeah what is he? 1-3?

So not exactly a large sample size.

Is Alvarez one of the star players of the team?

He's a rookie, but is one of the top if not the top prospect in the Mets organization @tokenizedsociety

Ah I see, thanks!

He is in his first year but is the highest rated prospect in the game. So the potential is there. He is only 21 so showing great maturity.

I hope I can be ready to start at the very beginning of the game because I have no idea how a match is "kicked off". The game I watched had already started by the time I got to tune in

The batter steps into the batters box and the first pitch is throw. The first at bat and the 20th of the game look the same.

Got it. Do they flip a coin to decided who goes first or something like that?

Home team is in the field first, visiting team hits first.

That way the home team gets the last at bat...it is called last licks.

Last licks haha cool

Good to know the lingo

Yeah I figured it would be good to get some of that in.

So tonight the Mets will be at bat first.

Expect Alonso to unload a couple moon shots in Wrigley @taskmaster4450le but I predict that Vientos is going to come up huge in this series. Just a feeling.

If the wind is blowing out, a great way for the hitters to pad their stats.

Then a trip to Colorado which is always pinball numbers.

Late start @jimmy.adames.

The time zone is always tough to take.

Drew Smyly was awesome a few years ago. I dont know how he is now. I guess we will find out.

Damn Smyly is having a terrific year.

Looks like a tough match up.

Ernie Banks was one of the all time greats. Vastly underrated in terms of his place among baseball elite.

Is there any kind of rule for jersey numbers or they can pick whatever?

From 0-99.

The only one cannot pick is 42 which is retired across baseball for Jackie Robinson and some teams have retired numbers for some of their great players.

For the Mets 17, 41, 31, 37, and some others are retired.

I see... but do numbers have any relation with the position they play

Not exactly although there are some characteristics. You rarely see a pitcher with a single digit number. Also relief pichers tend to have some higher numbers...in the 50s and 60s.

Damn Nimmo would have been on third if it wasnt in the net.

Good start.

@jimmy.adames

I hope your Pete forecast comes true.

He didnt want anything to do with Pete. He wasnt going after Pete that hard.

Lets see if the first baby Met comes through.

What a drop off in temp tomorrow.

Vientos swung through the curveball. At least they made Smyly pitch.

Need another good start from Tylor Megill.

A nice way to start. Got one out.

Ouch. Nice play by Escobar. Too bad he probably is going to find the IL on this.

It looks bad.

So just now one guy threw the ball and another guy who was standing by one of the cases caught the ball and tapped on the ground a few times. What does that mean?

1/ I didnt see it.

If there is a force, no need to tag the runner. If no force, then a tag is required.

At first base, the hitter running is always in a force, hence only have to touch the base with the foot.

2/ On the bases, there is a force only if the runner behind is forced by the hitter. In other words, first and second, then any play means a force is in play.

Nice inning for Megill. Good to put a zero up in the first inning. The Mets need to keep doing that.

So far, easy inning for Smyly. The Mets are giving up the good first inning.

The Mets were lapdogs there. Bad at bats.

Well he crushed that.

At least he got the first out of the inning.

Man Sanchez has no mobility behind the plate.

At least he got the strikeout. Now need to get the third out.

Gomes had some big hits when he was with the Nats.

Damn another run in 2-0.

Two out RBIs are fatal.

This is the Mets modus operandi.

They cannot get the big out when they need it.

Unreal. How come these guys cant get the third out in an inning.

An easy out there. Sanchez with a weak fly to right.

Nimmo overmatched there.

Another weak inning. Not jumping on Smyly in the first will haunt them.

Good start. Lets see if he can keep it up for 3 outs.

Two quick outs. See if he can get the third.

He got the third out.

Need to get some runs now.

Lindor is a smart player.

@jimmy.adames

Pete did crush that one. Too bad nobody on. The Mets are on the board.

4-1 #cubs.

This playing from behind is getting old quick @taskmaster4450le but the Polar Bear is doing his part!

Yeah and the Mets giving the runs right back.

How many two out RBIs have we seem the last few weeks?

This one is looking bleak @taskmaster4450le Soul sucking.

Not even competitive. Back to looking like a dead team.

Imagine if Pete does go for 60 this year.

Vientos is showing that he has holes. I am not really high on his overall as a prospect.

Could be something but I feel a better trade chip.

Oh wow, my stream crashed when it was 2-0 for the Cubs now stream is up again and it's 4-1. Very dynamic match it seems

Shitty pitching. A couple homeruns. A two run shot by the Cubs and one by the mets.

@jimmy.adames

Pete Alonso hit a HR. That was something he called earlier today.

Nothing after Pete's blast.

At least they inched closer.

Holy shit. Did I just see that? He dropped the damn ball.

Damn another two out RBI.

The story of the Mets season.

And they will challenge.

He was safe. This inning isnt over.

And it continues. More two out issues.

Amazing how Hefner waits until there are 5 runs in to go out to the mound.

More two out hits and RBIs.

This is just awful. Why cant these guys get the third out in the inning?

At least we are over 100 comments in this threadcast.

He swung at ball 4. That helped the mets out.

Sanchez not exactly impressing today. I dont think he has much of a rope.

See if this guy can get the third out.

Nimmo being Nimmo.

Bases loaded Pete up.

At least he got a run in.

Mets scored again. Is a recovery still realistic?

Going to be tough. They need to get a run or two here.

Vogey hasnt hit a HR this year I dont think.

Nimmo showed up.

The journey to the unknown

This is the topic for my threadstorm this day. Have you ever wondered what will happen to us when we are dead? Just read to get my view, hehe

#threadstorm

1/🧵

This is an issue that people get to talk about most often but which has had no conclusive answer since there are varying opinion about the destination. However, one thing is certain

2/1

That one thing that is certain is that, we all shall go somewhere after life here on earth. Although even this conclusion o mine is a problem to some of those who say there is no life at all after death.

3/1

We are more or less the same as the goats, dogs, fowls, etc who die and have no destination . They have no soul bur we humans have souls and as such, we cannot be equal with the animals.

4/1

Therefore, there is a life after this life in earth, but we we are going is also a problem. For so many (Christians) we shall go to heaven or hell and to some others, we shall go to paradise and which is on earth.

5/1

According to some sect, at the end of time, the earth will be turned into a paradise and the children of God shall be raised to dwell on the earthly paradise where there will be no sorrow but only joy.

6/1

But which do I believe sef? Hmmm well I believe we are heading somewhere called heaven or hell. Heaven for good peoole like @jessicaossom (I love her personality). And hell for other bad people, like...OK, tomorrow, I'll let you know

7/1

One of the questions that intrigues me the most! Since I don't know if there is really life after death, I try to make the most of it while I'm alive.

But then the heaven's remain an unknown world because no one has gone and come back to tell us how it is and how to get there, hehe. Abi @maryjacy don go??
I know @ksam cannever have gone, he has been busy threading and slaying all, hehe

Wait o, for those of you that believe that we go no where afterdeath, how una take reason am sef, ??? Hehe

THis is the end of my tonight threading on this topic. Now I have conveyed my belief and that of others, pls, if you have another belief, type it here, let us

Hey zCash Global community!

This partnership will be huge!

ayyy some OG's coming from there for sure

How much time per day do you spend creating content on the Hive blockchain?

Including threads, I would say 4-8 hours.

When I just do it in traditional English, it takes 2-4 hours, but when I have to redo it in my native language, it takes longer.

creating content 2-4 hours engage on the blockchain though it's pretty much an all day thing

It normally takes 4 hours but also it depends on the nature of the content.

It depends on if I'm focused or I'm doing several things at the time. 4-8 of actual work, plus 8 with distractions. To this add the work with my Hive team that is not inmediaely seen

I'll mark less than 2 hours because I'm not in the habit of posting every day, usually only 3~4 a week

In case you missed it, LeoFinance is making a lot of noise here, check it out and maybe even add something yourself:
