I've come back to Twitter to find @mollycrabapple & @leashless have been having a conversation "with" me for over 2hrs & my feed is flooded. 04:01:40, 2014-07-22
I retweeted one thing hours ago and come back to find my name included in dozens of retweets that out of context sound like I'm a racist nut 04:04:35, 2014-07-22

Once again the idea of a temporal currency comes to mind. The only ultimate resource. 23:01:45, 2014-07-22
Ultimately matter can be created from energy, scale of energy production or harvesting is a matter of time. 23:05:22, 2014-07-22
Resource-time as a measure of productivity to spend against other peoples productivity. And scales against efficiencies. 23:06:35, 2014-07-22
Does it work with large economic disparity tho? A 3rd world farmer might earn 60hrs/wk in hard labour. A 1st world office worker only 30hrs. 23:09:34, 2014-07-22
