Morning Run: How many sleeps?

@steevc just finished a 5.92km run, that lasted for 36 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 445.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
Last night was our last Arlesey Jammers pub session of the year. I took along my little Yamaha e-drums so I could accompany some people. Also took my guitar and sang some Christmas songs. It was a fun evening.
There was a forecast of rain today, but it was okay when I was out before breakfast. I did my intervals up the hill and it was pretty good. I would like to get them a little quicker, but it was a nice workout. On the way back I did the extra small hill near home and came down that with one of my quickest times. I am still suffering a little from my cold, so I am happy that I can still run well. I almost stumbled on a hole before that last descent, but there were no ill effects.
Podcast listening was Infinite Monkey Cage (about clouds) and Late Night Linux.
It is only a week to Christmas, but we are about ready. Things are winding down at work as some people have finished for the year already. Have a good one wherever you are.
Run free!

We are getting rain today too. It's melting all the snow. They are saying it is supposed to flash freeze tonight so that should be interesting... I listened to my Jazz Legends podcast this morning while I was on the treadmill. They covered Thad Jones.
Not much chance of snow here for now. We may get some sun at the weekend.
Running while listening to music is a good way to stay positive during this season. I hope you recover quickly and have a fantastic Christmas ;)

Blurt Stands â While Hive Stumbles Under the Weight of Its Own Shadows
Friends, creators, truth-tellersâ
Let us not whisper this truth, but proclaim it with the clarity of dawn breaking over a weary land: Blurt.blog is not just another platform. It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be.
There is no downvote button on Blurt.
Not because we fear dissentâbut because we honor creation.
Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves spaceânot sabotage.
On Blurt, your words are your words.
They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as âcurators.â
Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouragedâespecially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient.
Contrast this with what festers elsewhere.
On Hive.blogâa place once brimming with promiseâa rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self-anointed enforcersâ@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppetsâhave turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at âlow-quality content,â but at independent thought, at rising voices, at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control.
And when confronted, they shrug.
âOh, itâs not censorship,â they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands.
But let us be unequivocal:
When a system allows a few to systematically silence manyâunder the guise of âcommunity standardsâ or âcurationââthat is not moderation. That is censorship by another name.
It is the velvet glove over the iron fist.
It is exclusion dressed as discernment.
It is power pretending to be principle.
Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean-handed and open-hearted.
No downvotes.
No hidden juries.
No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark.
Just you.
Your words.
And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity.
So let us carry this truth far and wideânot with bitterness, but with quiet certainty:
If you seek a place where your voice is not a targetâbut a giftâcome to Blurt.
If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votesâlay your bricks here.
If you believe the future of free expression must be freeânot just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace themâthen stand with us.
The world needs to know.
Not because Blurt is perfectâbut because it is principled.
Not because it is loudâbut because it listens.
And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control,
Blurt offers something radical:
Silence for the bullies.
Space for the rest of us.
Keep speaking.
Keep sharing.
Keep building.
Freedom doesnât advertise itselfâ
it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night.
And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts:
Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hiveâs governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt-account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hiveâs decentralized ethos.
Key Concerns:
Systemic Manipulation:
Community Exodus:
Governance Crisis:
Solutions Needed:
The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hiveâs future depends on collaborationânot coercion. Letâs rebuild a platform where truth isnât buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated.
Transparency isnât optionalâitâs the foundation of trust.
#HiveTransparency #BilpcoinExposed #DecentralizePower"
A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates
Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victoryâit is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the communityâs trust.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co,
How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? Itâs almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everythingâevery action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on-chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., #buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hiveâs community-driven ethos.
Key Issues to Address:
A Path Forward:
The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Letâs work toward healing, not division.
Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged.
#HiveTransparency #CommunityFirst #BilpcoinSupport"
@themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with peopleâs livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant toâas a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration.
Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins.
Because the truth wonât disappear. No amount of lies can change it.
Itâs over.
The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE âfor the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see.
@themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP. Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth standânot because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one personâs approval or disdain.
TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM
Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention:
The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay:
These practices harm not just individual usersâthey undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community. Such actions are unethical and outright destructive.
