Lots of shake-ups in crypto social these days, so let me re-introduce everyone to Ethereum Follow Protocol @efp and why I think it's a key primitive moving forward Crypto social should be: - Onchain and decentralized (need to say this) - Use existing key protocols like @ensdomains & @signinethereum - Enhance what we're already doing in crypto, rather than only directly competing with twitter That's why i built EFP: - Onchain social graph protocol for Ethereum accounts - Ethereum accounts follow other ethereum accounts - No special EFP accounts, just uses Ethereum accounts (which means you can follow accounts even if they've never used EFP) - Doesn't have its own competing naming system, it simply uses ENS, the one true crypto naming system - Fully onchain, decentralized, open source, no compromises - 76 integrations and growing, including POAP, Snapshot, Superfluid, Tally, and more - Funded by @ENS_DAO EFP isn't a standalone app, it's *a primitive you embed into the apps we already have*, like ENS Twitter clones are fine, but I'm more interested in adding a social layer to everything we're already doing in crypto. I think that's the future of crypto social But why social graph w/o a focus on posting? People need to open their mind to social beyond twitter clones. Many other use cases: - Web of trust - Portable address book to make sending crypto more secure - Context for who someone is and their relation to me - Probabilistic proof of human - And more! Whatever you want to do The Onchain Profile Future The screenshot below shows @VitalikButerin's ENS profile enhanced with the EFP social graph (he's a user). Everything there is onchain and open for all apps to use for free. Some apps use this, but most don't. We could have this in all crypto apps if we simply decided to. Learn more about integrations at this link or DM me: efp.app/integrations

@kookielah @Apogee_Ent Got a 9070XT and this is all I play

@Apogee_Ent I think it's meant as an insult but then I know I'm getting something I'll like.

Is “boomer shooter” a compliment or an insult?

@trad_west_ Go to the ant, sluggard - Proverbs 6:6

Ants doing a procession 🤣

@AscendedYield She***

That BBC reporter really hissed like a demon when they heard Jesus

@PinkNews I think you meant to write RETVRNING

Men under 24 returning to homophobic views of past generations, study suggests thepinknews.com/2026/01/16/you…

@AtomicAutist @romanhelmetguy @theo_nash And the breasts??

@romanhelmetguy @theo_nash Bro has the fashion sense of a 2014 high school English teacher

@romanhelmetguy @theo_nash Just ask the Italians lol

@theo_nash Ah yes, the Roman Empire. Famous for zero ethnic and religious conflict. Just ask the Carthaginians, the Numantines, the Judeans, the Dacians, the Goths, the Druids, the Christians then the Pagans, etc etc.

@KelliB4Thee @RorateCaeli Nope, worse

@RorateCaeli The pain is second only to the death of a parent.

Divorce is so painful for children (watch until the end -- his parents divorced when he was four.)

@HyperboreaMind @latinedisce Well, Latin was the lingua franca and it was their language. We are now in the position of the Romans and Latin to us is like Greek was to them, and Greek is super Latin

@latinedisce But the Romans themselves would rather suggest to learn ancient Greek.

There is really no good reason to learn Latin. (Apart from preserving the Western intellectual tradition from total abandonment, thus preventing the consequent destruction of our civilization.)

@nikthedork @Boaiatach there are many "games." there is one Half-Life

@Boaiatach You can say this about many games.

there are real human beings in 2026 who have never played half life

@SecWar I thought Trump defeated ISIS in his first term

Earlier today, U.S. forces commenced OPERATION HAWKEYE STRIKE in Syria to eliminate ISIS fighters, infrastructure, and weapons sites in direct response to the attack on U.S. forces that occurred on December 13th in Palmyra, Syria. This is not the beginning of a war — it is a declaration of vengeance. The United States of America, under President Trump’s leadership, will never hesitate and never relent to defend our people. As we said directly following the savage attack, if you target Americans — anywhere in the world — you will spend the rest of your brief, anxious life knowing the United States will hunt you, find you, and ruthlessly kill you. Today, we hunted and we killed our enemies. Lots of them. And we will continue.

@mtracey @JerryOteri I would say by going to a stadium you are acknowledging there is a chance you will be shown on the jumbitron

@JerryOteri Obviously they couldn't expect total privacy while attending a public concert, but they had no reasonable expectation they were going to be suddenly beamed onto a jumbotron and scrutinized by millions during a quasi-private moment. So I'd call it an invasion of privacy, of a sort

The gleeful public humiliation of this woman -- as well as the man she was canoodling with -- was outrageous. They fundamentally didn't do anything wrong, and their privacy was invaded nytimes.com/2025/12/18/sty…

@rikardhjort @latinedisce When I say "conjugates similarly" there I mean the principal parts follow similar patterns

Yes re: principal parts. When I was learning, for first conjugation I would just note it's first with the first principal part followed by (1) since they conjugate consistently. You'll find other tricks to save time like that where you can only include the full entry if it's irregular either in the technical sense or in the sense that it conjugates just a bit different from "normal" verbs if its conjugation (most 2nd conjugation verbs conjugate similarly, same with 4th). You can use similar tricks for nouns, where you mostly learn just the nominative unless there's something a bit off about something (like nauta being masculine). Even though 3rd declension has patterns within patterns and can have all genders, there are patterns that can shortcut extra memorization like all -atio/-utio/-itio nouns are feminine and have predictable genitive, etc etc

Learn one Latin word a day: one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening. Repeat each one out loud 20 times (it will take about 30 secs). In two years, you’ll know the 2,000 most frequent words, which cover about 80% of all texts. Total study time: 18 hrs.

@TheCinesthetic Yes it is self-evident that people who didn't watch the show would not grasp the impact of this scene

Anyone who hasn’t seen Game of Thrones can’t grasp the impact of this scene eight years ago.

@rikardhjort @latinedisce for verbs*

@rikardhjort @latinedisce All 4 principal parts or verbs, nom + gen + gender for nouns

@AstorAaron @LevelOneRaccoon @Anc_Aesthetics Or he could purposely shoot more than his target to obscure the intent

@LevelOneRaccoon @Anc_Aesthetics Collateral comes when one sets of a bomb that targets a person and then kills others in the vicinity. If using a gun, the shooter could hit his target and simply leave. But he didn't. He kept shooting. If there was a target, it may have been the professor (who wasn't in the room)

The past few months in crypto got ton of noise. 1.) crypto peaked (bearish) 2.) 4 years cycle is over. (Bullish) 3.) Saylor and DATs to be sniped. (Bearish) 4.) chart looks bearish (bearish) 5.) short term, price has corrected enough. (Bullish) 6.) crypto market structure bill (bullish) 7.) CT fighting each other The list can go on, but literally many of us do not care. We got enough and good balance of crypto and cash to capture opportunity in both PA direction. Let the market work for you, not the other way around.
