YAY!!!!

YAY, we hit the 500 mark, lolz. I know, i know im still a little account but its good to celebrate the little milestones right ? Its been a pretty interesting run since my last milestone of 420 followers :) Have made more great mates, awesome convos, read and written fantastic articles, played some tunes and all in all created some good memories for the branium to store.

Copes corner pirate radio has been happening every week with lots of fun interesting and different music being played, requested and talked about

Had myself another crack at the steemit open mic for week 97 with cover of "Audioslave - I am the highway" which seemed to go down rather well :) Lining up my next entry as we speak...

Open Mic Week 97

I was fortunate enough to win the Make a Minnow 5000SP delegation for a month and kicked off Copes upvote initiative, through this i got to see what Dolphin life was like and try my hand at some new challenges, like curation, dealing with a slider bar for upvotes, being responsible with the superpowers which were given to me, being a PAL and HELPIE recruiter (well trying... i aint that good at it).

I got to meet a good mate on the platform nathankaye as he was passing through on his journey to the land of milk and honey where i hoping to get my ass up to soon as well. The 20 min pit stop turned into a few hours of philosophical and psychological chat with a touch of psychedelics thrown in fr good measure :)

What is it like meeting a Steemit friend in the physical world?

Been trying to get up on the retro & VR gaming and getting some of the experiences out there for peeps to check out and trust me im having a great time playing the games in standard form for the game reviews and in VR just to take it to another level :)

Virtual Reality (VR) Review of: Road and Track presents The Need for Speed (PSX/PS1)

While its fun to get into writing articles about Vr and gaming im still writing some of the psych and philosophy based articles to keep them wheels of the mind turning too. There is nothing like delving into the depths of the mind and shining a light on some of the darker sides of the hooman condition.

No matter the type of screw you are… you’re still getting screwed!!!

Detaching From Toxicity - Start Today

These kindsa thought pieces have gained me some pretty cool new friends of late AND have landed me regular spots on Clayboyn's Coffee and Philosophy show as a drop in plug and play guest from time to time. Again this is a place where we get to stretch the legs on the brainium and entertain a number of thoughts and ideas. These sessions scatter my thoughts a bit so i need to make notes so i don't forget topics i want to bring up, thus was born the Copious thoughts articles where i "show my working out" for the math we do on the show, lolz.

And of course check ins withe Checkas still happen from time to time as she continues her journey from a nerve racked, scared kitty, due to some abuse before she came to us, to a more chilled and loving kitty who is still learning how to cat properly in her old age.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg for whats been going on in the past few months !!!!! So i would definitely say Achievement unlocked at this point in time :) I would like to thank all my peeps on the platform who keep it real and are too legit to quit ;) My friends on the platform are some of the greatest people i have interacted with in my whole life, the greatest gift we have is the connectivity we have with one another and here we connect across the miles and oceans between us to create a community which cares for one another, for some even more than those they interact with in real life. I do feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to interact with you all and hope that I find more peeps on the level in the future :)

Much love and copious hugs in all your directions
