Is there any place to pay people to do some art for you, or have a contest for artists to submit their art?

I know you can do a contest on freelancer and ask for digital visuals. But I was wondering if there was a place specifically for artists of all mediums, not just digital.

I figure I'd see about commissioning some artistic representation for what we went through in Thailand...something I could hang on the wall. Since people have time on their hands.

But I don't have any favorite artists or even know what I would want.

RIP Bruno
Bruno, you will be remembered brother. We knew you are going but with this perception that we have ~2 months. Losing you is a great loss for this community. I and others who have seen you around will remember you. RIP brother.

We need to find a family member of Bruno.

Hey guys. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I just found this:

If you aren't totally burned out on the COVID19 BS... this is a REALLY great video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGC5sGdz4kg

This guy is fucking decent.
No he is not. Sending kids back to school is the last thing we should do. Dropped the vid right there.

Send workers back so we can afford to treat and hopefully eventually cure this plague. School kids are the biggest infection vector. Parent your children for a while, for once.

In fact it is kids who should be sent to Corona "Summer" Camps to get properly infected and get them back with their parents when they test inmune. Win-Win.

We could have had all of them already inmune if we had do that as soon as the lockdowns started.

 Wow.  You've been thinking about this.  That just might work!
2829  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: April 10, 2020, 03:55:56 AM
Sending kids back to school is the last thing we should do.

You understand that there have been zero deaths GLOBALLY confirmed for children aged 0-9 right?  You understand once these little turds have it, they become part of the herd that can't carry it and are safe to be around?

There have been at least 5 "first children death articles", but most of them are debunked... If not all of them, but I don't know that for sure.  I do know that they aren't recorded here: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-sex-demographics/

Where I am located... they are trying to get all the parents to go to the school and then bring a packet of papers to the kids and then have the parents take them back lol... How does that help stop a virus? lol! Social retarding.

Social distancing is like being scared of STD's and giving up sex entirely rather than just wear a condom.  Do you fuck?!  

Stop being a fucking fruitloop nutjob, please.  Bitcoin is going to go up without all the crazies cheering on Government to save them from the wind.
What stops the kids from infecting the parents, and the parents from (potentially) subsequently dying?

Please watch the video.  Even if just for 5 minutes or 2.5 minutes.  

As it is now, the parents are the ones going to the schools anyways picking up and dropping off API packs.   Roll Eyes

 I listened for a few minutes.  When asked if the million deaths was a possibility in the US, his reply was strange.  First he felt compelled to tell us he wasn't paid by the government which is a lie (or naive if I'm to be generous).  Rockefeller University gets much of its funding from the US govt via NCCIH and NIGMS.  He goes on to ignore the question of a million deaths until pressed when he gives the number 500 per day.  This is supposed to be numbers of deaths without the current measures in place.   USA is well above that with current measures.  Clearly he doesnt know.  Then there's the China question - are they telling the truth about their numbers?  He can't possibly know but he answers anyway!  I had to stop at that point.  I dont have unlimited data on my phone and there are many people i can listen to for free if i simply want misinformation.
 Maybe you could tell us what he says that might be informative?

I would have gone in for a free burger which rules out Krishna as well but nobody would ever accuse me of being hairless... I do play a mean tambourine.

Nope. No burgers in Krishnaland. They do give out weird vegan crap though.

Back in the early 1970s I answered an ad in the Bargain Hunter Press (later called Buy and Sell) for a P.A. amp at an incredible price. It was only a little over a block from our house on Gerrard near Jarvis but I didn't realize until I got there that it was the Krishna "Temple".

I double checked the ad to make sure the address was right and knocked on the door. The air was filled with incense, chants and the jingling of little bells. Some dude in saffron robes invited me in and immediately started to try to indoctrinate me.

I explained I was there for the P.A. amp they'd advertised. I realized some poor sucker had relinquished his worldly goods to the "church", including a Bogen 100W PA amplifier. Saffron Robe Dude was now worked up to a fever pitch trying to get my cash and sign me up. Maybe he thought he could get me to relinquish it after I'd paid for it. Get twice the mileage out of the classified ad and maybe sell it to someone else.

I asked for a receipt and when he came back with a receipt book he was also carrying some kind of weird seed-cake wafers which he offered to me as "food". I tasted it to be polite, thanked him, grabbed the P.A. and got the fuck out of there. The P.A. worked great until it was stolen from a bar we played in.

Ain't religion grand?

 That's an awesome story.   You lived right in the heart of TO - Eaton's Center, Maple Leaf Gardens, The St. Lawrence Market, Nathan Phillips, Massey Hall, Sam the Record Man...  So many old memories of TO are flooding back.  I'm going to have to take the family there for a few days this summer to look around.  I haven't explored the downtown in ages and I'm sure I wont recognize it.

I'm not Hindu though.
I'd better be careful, if I keep telling people what I'm not, eventually, I will have blown my opsec.

Let me guess. Jehovah's Witness? Scientologist? Hairless Krishna? Southern Baptist?

 Cool

   JW?  I do get somewhat regular visits from a pair of elderly ladies wanting to teach me the truth. No.
  Scientologist?  I remember being intrigued by their offer of a free personality test when they were at Yonge and College. So, no but I would have gone in for a free burger which rules out Krishna as well but nobody would ever accuse me of being hairless... I do play a mean tambourine.
  S. Baptist?  I can count on one hand the number of times I've been south of the Mason-Dixon line - not that there's anything wrong with that.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Pledges $1 Billion for Coronavirus Relief

https://time.com/5817083/jack-dorsey-pledges-1-billion-coronavirus-relief/

My favorite billionaire just gave away 28% of his net worth.
Okay but... how about this part?

Quote
“After we disarm this pandemic, the focus will shift to girl’s health and education, and UBI,” Dorsey said Tuesday in a tweet, referring to universal basic income. The pledge represents about 28% of his wealth, he said.
Those are feminist issues. And more to the point re: the virus, more men than women are dying from it.

Also also, UBI.

 The reason more men than women are dying from Covid-19 might simply be due to the fact that me are the weaker sex with respect to our immune systems.
Look I'm no pharmacist, I'm just throwing this out there but we might want to look into estrogen therapy for our survival.  Estrogen never killed anybody (directly at least) so why not try it?  Of course any result would be purely anecdotal.


edit: oops I forgot the word women  Shocked   Freudian slip?  Wink

You also failed/refused to disclaim with #nohomo.

I disapprove of any efforts towards my own conversion, even if it is for my own good.   Angry Angry Angry Angry 

 You can still identify as a male.

He should tweet it will be doled out in BTC.


I am pretty sure that in recent weeks I had come across a term that describes a kind of poetic justice that occurs when someone becomes a victim of the very thing that s/he has been denying to exist.  


Its called Karma.

 Only if that person were to die though.


Why?

If you sell defective shit and get hurt because of it, its still Karma.

Check out this graph from JP Morgan:


This is based partially on the second wave emerging in China. Are we going to keep doing these lockdowns every couple of months until a vaccine arrives?

South Korea: no second wave, no lockdown.




 Hang on.  They've yet to reopen the schools.
