I’M ABOUT TO TURN FIVE BUT AM I DODGY?
FROT
It’s nearly my fifth birthday on the blockchain, but sometimes I get accused of being dodgy. I’m actually a bit of a simple punter and any geek worth his salt could work out just about bloody everything about me, down to my name and address. With the benefit of hindsight I wish I was more […]
I HAD A YES MOMENT ON THE BUS TODAY
FROT
Sometimes I go into town on the bus. Here in New Zealand all the good little sheeple are supposed to wear muzzles on public transport to protect the covid cult members from “catching a virus”. And even after 18 months of this horseshit, most people still believe it. I’ve never worn a muzzle myself and […]
I CAN’T BE ARSED ANYMORE
FROT
And sometimes that is a good thing. For five years next month I’ve been ranting on blockchains about downvotes being bullshit. Most of my original friends from Steemit threw in the towel long ago, and the main reason in many cases was that they were so fucking sick of being downvoted, while watching whales using […]
IS IT TIME I TRANSITIONED TO THE OPERA BROWSER?
FROT
I’ve been happily using the Brave browser, but I fear I may have been exposed to dangerous extremist viewpoints. I came to realise I need a browser that can keep me safe, and also one that can decide what is the best content for me to see, so I started looking around for a more […]

FROT
When I’m having fun flinging money around like a happy whale, here are 11 things I’m looking out for: Colour We may all be just be cogs in the machine, but at least we can be colourful cogs “Cogs.23” by fROt – spraypaint on canvas with digital editing Humour Wherever we may be, funny as […]
PROOF OF VOTE
FROT
In just two months I’ll be hitting my fifth birthday on Steemit/Hive and you might think I would know what I was doing by now – but I don’t, it still all confuses the hell out of me. For the past few weeks I’ve been giving people heads up about tagging their posts #proofofbrain, but only […]
SOMETIMES WORDS NEARLY MAKE MY NUTS DROP OFF
FROT
Some words are wise, or helpful, or funny, entertaining, or enlightening. But some words are like looking at dog shit. And then putting it in a plastic bag and taking it home to eat for dinner. I’m not all that into eating dog shit and sometimes I’d rather just edit some pictures. Doing pictures is […]
THIS IS BEYOND MY CONTROL
FROT
Sometimes when I look at images, weird things happen. It’s not my fault, forces of evil take over my tablet… Remember the X-Files? There I was just looking at an old picture of Gillian Anderson Next thing I knew she was covered in cling film plastic wrap And then things started to get weird… She […]
IS DIGITAL ART REALLY ART?
FROT
I know that probably sounds a dumb question coming from someone who is clearly on the digital end of the art spectrum, but real paintings are like holy monuments and gazing upon works by the old masters feels like looking at the real thing, while the digital art that I knock out on my tablet […]
The view from the top deck
FROT
One of my favourite places to take photos around town is from the top deck of a double decker bus Sitting in the front seat up top I feel like king of the road looking down on my subjects And despite the fact that I’m taking photos through glass windows and trying to avoid any […]
