I guess I'm supposed to ask @svashta why we're having this prompt today. I wouldn't have thought to question it, but I suppose I'll ask him when he comes over for mead tomorrow. I have a callback at 4:25, but that should still leave plenty of time to get home in time for him to come over from...Europe? I want to say some country with a Slavic language, but I can't be sure. I hope he's not offended that I am doubting myself about things I think I know. Oh! I do know. I've seen the #teamslovenia on his posts, so that must be why I had that in my head. Yes. Yes. I do know. We just haven't spoken in HIS language natively, so... though maybe that's an assumption. Maybe he moved to Slovenia, but grew up speaking English... or maybe, after doing all the math, he discovered that the best hashtag is that one. I see a lot of @teammalaysia, too.

Funny. I don't know that I would ever use #teamusa... I mean, it just seems so Olympian. Also, I'm all about breaking down our borders... not that we shouldn't be proud of where we come from... but... should we? Should we? I mean, being proud of people that are around us makes sense, but what is patriotism except a way to artificially separate the workers of the world and allow the capitalists to continue controlling us.

Not that I mean to make anyone feel bad for using whatever tag they think is right. And it makes sense to want to connect to people that are local to you. Maybe the real problem is that the usa is so big that you might as well be in another country if you live on the other coast... or even a state away, depending on the state... maybe Team California? Or even Team SoCal? That might make sense. I would like to connect with other Steemians in my area.

A kiss? Ph! O! I've decided that my child will have gotten a million kisses by the time he's 1. That's just 5 minutes of kissing from each of us daily. I timed my kisses. I can do about five a second.

I agree...#TeamUSA does sound Olympian. I think a lot about whether or not I should be proud of where I come from. Although the United States is a beautiful country with seemingly unlimited opportunity, it's hard to overlook the negativity surrounding the current state of affairs.


It would be awesome if you checked out my #freewrite for Day 94 - a kiss. Leave a comment and let me know what you think =)

Will do!

How about #teamtranscendental for those of us who defy physical borders?

And #teambaby for those of us who can't tell where we end and another person begins!

I think alot of people use tags they have no idea about. Also, using the #teamusa tag wouldn't/ might not necessarily mean not breaking borders, after all steemit as a socialnedia platform.has done tgat, so can what us broken be unbroken?

... typing on your phone?

Five a second huh? That's 5K/PS (kisses per second of course!)

I'm from the US but haven't gotten around to joining the whole teamusa movement yet...

Kpsps is, then, the rate of kiss acceleration.

You did this already.

I suggest you go back in time to read my comment to fully appreciate its true worth.

...I... Which comment? Is it a comment about time travel? I'm...
Dizzy.

The comment I wrote just there. Just above. There. No there!

It's very helpful. Giving you the link to the next freewrite. It you went back in time to before you did the next freewrite, you'd understand just how useful it was would will be.

Oh! Yes! So helpful. It would have been even more helpful if you could have included some knowledge of what crypto would do today, but, ah well ;)

I'll put them in later. You can always go back in time again to pick them up.

Great. Thanks! I guess that means the big movements are yet to come.
