Ok, @barge I feel compelled to share my experience with you while reading visually experiencing your piece. I don't even want to call it a post, because it's a piece of art through and through.

So firstly, I'm sitting here smoking a joint of Lemon Kush with my brother when steemworld alerts me that barge has posted. Naturally I head on over to take a look, and I'm delighted with what I see.

I remember thinking yesterday when taking a look at Blockchain Is Fiction And That's A Fact!...Or Is It The Other Way Around? that your art seems to be progressing to a whole new level. I don't mean better, because all of your art is awesome, I just see some different, and new dynamics that are visually appealing to me.

While examining the first image, I realized that I must have looked like a contortionist, with my head going from side to side, completely laughing my ass off. I realize that I've taken part in some of these activities, such as self upvoting, and use of bid bots, and I'm not too hard on myself for it. I did stop using bid bots, and I don't self upvote my posts anymore, but I did create an imaginary friend that does it, with the mind to help me make a return on my investment into delegations, but I'm really not sure how to perceive it. I don't really feel like it's wrong, because my reason for wanting to grow in Steem power, is to help my friends who I feel create awesome content. So it's a bit of a catch twenty two I suppose. Personal gain, with the benefit of more resources for helping others? One might say my practices here are questionable, another might say perfectly fine.

Everyone has seemed to love imaginary friend so far, it's almost become like another me. I feel like I perceive things differently when I'm logged in. It's hard to explain lol.

I've never really given this question much thought before:

I think hate is the complete lack of presence of love. It's a complete positive vs negative conception. I cannot see how the two can coexist. I choose not to judge others for what they do on the blockchain. I'm guilty of a few retaliation votes here and there, but I'll blame that on the Irish in me. Someone recently asked me if I look down on others that use bid bots now that I stopped using them, and my response was that the only negative connotation I've ever felt towards someone here, was when I witnessed a death threat to another human being, regarding a flag war. It really bothered me, and I will not say who it was, but it was messed up. Futuremore, he self upvoted his death threat to around 170 dollars, which is ultra uncool to me. Otherwise, who am I to judge others for their actions. I've made my own fair share of what I consider to be mistakes in this life, and I'm sure I will make plenty more.

I can only claim to be a human being, doing human things, and being really good at creating errors, then realizing the root of the error after I've made the mistake. I just accept it as normal now, and it really doesn't bother me.

Nice work @barge. I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it!
