You would definitely enjoy Preacher. Graphic novels are great, show is better than ok.

Guy ends up gaining “the word of God” as an ability

There’s definitely an inherent paw clause to this power…unintended consequences galore!

Probability has more than one side, bend it one way and its also being bent away from another.

Bend probability to my will.

Example: Jump out of a plane (see a bowl of petunias and a sperm whale on the way down), bend probability so that against all odds; I start to fly.

The Fediverse demographic skews very heavily away from anything that smells even remotely like promotion or sales (and especially AI).

Your best bet, and possibly the only meaningful way, to leverage the Fediverse as a business is to use it for thought leadership. Write, post, comment about specific meaningful things your business is centered around. Do not promote, do not use contextual links, do not direct people to your website for more info.

This isn’t a place for direct lead gen at scale. It’s a place to accumulate like minded people, and work towards those people talking about you inside their own networks.

It’s the long game, recognition and association; not engagement and monetization.

Saw Robocop when I was six. Murphy getting his arm blown to bits haunted me for years… Until I saw Red Foreman years later, then I was ok

This brand of positivity you’re embodying is the most infectious one, and if I can feel it in your writing I imagine hearing it spoken from you would be some next level inspiration.

I’ve lost some people close to me over the years and what saddens me most is how I’ve forgotten so much about them beyond what they looked like. All of them except one…Gordon left behind audio recordings as his last messages to each of us in the group of friends.

Every time I hear his voice, it brings back so much about him that just can’t be said. His cadence, intonation, and overall manner of speaking have helped keep an entire person in my memory.

I wonder if that’s an option for you. I can say from experience that the lasting impact of audio is…powerful. Being able to actually hear my friend…i can imagine him speaking to me, and it’s in his voice because his voice is not forgotten.

Your family hearing your thoughts, in your voice…and being able to hear you speak long after your time…man, I can’t think of a better way to highlight your true personality and make it a lasting one.
