RELAX - POB has your back
Never has there been a community that has given so many views, comments, interactions and votes on my post as the proof of brain community. Part of that is the excellent curating from the #pobleus project. Somehow I got to trending on the Google page for that post.
Can you see that my post is first if you make a google search for "Pobleus"? Also Google will try to direct you to publeus and some pubis may follow.
I started posting on Proofofbrain.io in the beginning of the summer and made entries in contests like POB-WOTW and daily contests created for interaction. I loved the challenge to stretch my creativity and the support from large stakeholders. Reading @calumam became a sport for me for a while. Still the WOTW continues with @scholaris.pob's efforts even though he is in the middle of work and studies.
Today I'm pleased to see that @onealfa.pob is still curating actively especially posts that promote Proof of Brain or increase interaction or may possible bring in more users. I'm really impressed with the organic efforts he has put forth in upvoting the community posts.
However suddenly this Phil Collins photo popped up right below his kind comment. I guess the order of the comments changes with the amount of upvote given to each comment.
I never meant for that comment to be right before yours @onealpha.pob but I hope you don't take offense. It looks like Phil Collins is looking for an upvote.
This comment falls on my last post from POB-WOTW (Evolution of Paradise) which still has a lot of competition to be ranking in Google. I don't write these posts to earn POB or even to earn an audience. I write these posts because it is a challenge and a discovery for me.
For the past week I have been looking to take a rest but have not been able to completely stop interacting online. I like the daily challenge to comment on a piece of art in the Pob art contest from @auina. I like @elricmoonslayer's random word challenge and the POBtalk daily from
@vempromundo.pob . This is kind of the POB cafe where you walk in and there are your buddies. I might not have hours to write a post, but I can stop in to say, "Hi. I'm still alive. I'm glad you are alive too."
The Green Olive Cafe is one of my favorite cafes near Seoul. This cafe is on Gangwha Island that belongs to the city of Incheon about one hour from Seoul. Here I can relax and think about a few things in perspective.
The garden is beautiful but the inside is even more inviting with a display of the family bong on the top shelf.
Korea is always a mystery to me as is the POB community. I write because I have a few things I want to say and I need to figure a few things out. Writing blog entries helps me to discover who I am and this is worth more than all the tokens I could get.
I am tempted to write about how I traded Splinterlands and collect close to 300% APR and how I have Leo Cubs in a Den collecting some crazy interest rate and how I staked all my hive-engine tokens and just watch them spill out every day but that's not cool.
I take one look at some of the cool people on Hive and see they really got their niche down. I really envy people who can record their life in that is simple for others to understand and contribute something special.
One day I'd like to do that too, but in the meantime I will just have some fun and collect some of that "internet money" on the way.
Don't forget to get yours as well. It will be worth more than gold.
I can't figure out for the life of me why I like these Canadaian singers but I love them.
Now would you look at this
Looks like the frontend gets crawled very easily on duckduckgo. I'm surprised to see palnet and Hive hustlers right next though, are they really that engaged?
That not being the case, if you Googled malopie you'd see a few results too, one of my favorite contents got crawled
Which is really exciting because if someone was to look my name up on Google or any search engine, for now, I'd love them to stumble on these contents first.
That's really cool @malopie,
This is always fun to find usernames on different search engines. You are a man of brain. After all these years I still don't show up mineopoly on a google, but on an image search I am there.

So, You are in Splinterlands and Leo clubs too. That's great. Anything else you wanna give try🤔. This is a lovely café, do you go there on a date with your wife? POB takes care of everything for sure, it is giving knowledge, experience, friendship, laughter, financial freedom and a new trend to life. Have a chilled day dear 😊👍
It looks like a good future for us @vikbuddy,
I brought one set of SteemMonsters years ago and I never played. I went back a couple weeks ago to play a round with my son and we found 13,000 DEC and a lot of SPS to collect. He said the game was boring but he liked the way I staked the SPS.
Leo cubs was my first and only de-fi experience. Hive opened these doors for me. I learned a lot from @offgridlife but usually I was so far behind him that I missed the bus although I did catch a few deals here and there.
Yes
POB is just one piece of the puzzle to get my kids in college and me into retirement.
One day it would be cool to start my own tribe but it takes too much energy and I'd be burnt out too fast. It's easier to just keep my eyes open and buy into somebody else's tribe coin.
I think I have !PIZZA !BEER and !LUV and crazy random !giphy

BEER.Sometimes it's complicated for me to be here on a daily basis... Working as a curator and working in real life ends up taking a lot of my time and I can't comment and interact with other people... That's a little boring actually, but it does part.
I loved the pictures, @mineopoly, and I also have a crush on Neil Young... So your post made me happy.
I'm glad I could spread some cheer @aiuna,
A very young Neil Young has a way of making people smile.
Answering replies and engaging takes a lot of time and it's not worth losing your life for. I usually answer comments when I have a break or when I'm on the train. If I'm at home it is impossible.

Don't you just love the POB community??, It's evolving really fast and of course it's the best place to be.
I'm still looking forward to those posts about Korea.
Enjoy your ride @mineopoly, I'm still looking for a good bike to join you on the ride with. I hope I find it soon
Hi @chincoculbert,
When I see a lot of replies on my posts I get nervous and think I have to make a better post every time. Screw that. POB is filled with regular people that will continue to support and encourage and help each other reach their goals. I want to spend more time in art and education and make short videos but there is something blocking me. Mostly a time constraint but more than that it is the guts to start.
This post is about Korea as Korean as I get and the next post about Jongkak kimchi is Korean as well. What kind of things were you interested in about Korea? Most of it can already be searched, but not my messed up experiences. There is a cool meercat cafe I may visit in our neighborhood. They let you play with kangaroo and other freaky mammals. I prefer dancing with humans not other mammals. Korea is endless but I have work to do and not much time to party.
What kind of bike are you looking into. I don't have a bike. I usually roller blade or walk. There are a lot of hills. Most of Korea looks something like:
But there is another side to Korea that is undisturbed and beautiful on some islands.
I realize now I have millions of interesting photos in Korea. Let me know what you are interested in and I may make a post for you.
Wow, guess I was expecting to see more about korea's cultures, just like that ancient looking building with men dressed in gowns (I don't know what it's called) and carrying swords. But notwithstanding, all the pictures you've shared are lovely and it'll be a shame to be limited to just culture post on Korea. You're very insightful @mineopoly and I trust you to make more amazing posts, whatever draws your attention that you feel we'll love to see..pls share.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to indulge in my curiosity
I like your attitude @chicoculbert,
I'm keeping your suggestions in mind. Most of Korea is business as usual. There are some Buddhist temples that keep that ancient feeling and tradition.
The spirits guard the forbidden.
Lol..I might as well just change my name to chicoculbert, it has a nice ring to it.
I'll love to see those spirits up close some day. Looks like the one on the right is trying to tell the other one to calm down a little.
Thank you for exposing me to more and more of korea.
Have a great day!!
I'm happy that you seem to be thriving on HIVE in Proof Of Brain. I will admit I have felt pretty distant from HIVE for a while, but I still really enjoy it as the one place I like to document my writings for posterity.
You seem to be coming into your own unique blogging style combining your interests and experience as a teacher, longtime foreigner living in Korea, with all your other passions/hobbies such as art and humor.
I have really appreciated your friendship and engagement with my posts over the years... it means a lot. Writing is such a therapeutic practice and it's great when it seems to strike a chord with others as an added bonus.
I could relate to one part quite a bit
Like everyone else that held Splinterlands cards over the years, I've been amazed to see the skyrocketing userbase there along with card values. Somehow, I just am not too enthusiastic about writing all about it! It's one of those high risk, high return investments that honestly.... I can't take any credit for. It's just a nice surprise when the loop life throws you for is actually profitable rather than well, your house burns down or something.
I really rarely talk about crypto with people that aren't into it anymore unless it comes up naturally in conversation as I know it is such a volatile space. I am totally bewildered by it and have no idea which projects and coins will survive long-term. For now I am just enjoying the ride and grateful for the connections I've made along the way.
Peace
I learned so much from you @d-pend,
Reading your poems opens my mind.
Looking at your art gives me ideas for new ways of doing things.
I like interacting on Hive these days and found it rewarding in interaction and in earning crypto. It's important to take things into perspective though. A few years ago before I met you I tried mining and most alt coins were worth less than one cent. What a ride that was. I know that things may go back to close to zero at any time so I am just trying to have fun writing. Then I don't have to worry about any loss.
I do have to make a little better effort at selling off a portion at the ATHs. So far I have been unsuccessful at this point of trading. Another thing I need to be careful of is getting carried away. I am a little set back that I am spending too much time writing here, but that not so bad. What worries me more is becoming conditioned to rewards. If I notice that somehow my style is compromised I will take a couple days off until I come back to my senses.
I haven't changed much. One of the big differences is I see people commenting on my posts. This usually makes me feel better.
I can't say much about crypto. They are tokens. We are the value.
Just be yourself and continue to drop in from time to time.
Hive is not inherently evil. It's what we make out of it.
When I look at my students at school I know I should be working on some English as a Second Language community for them. That's why I am trying some things. I think video is where I should go but I freeze a lot.
Good luck
