I've been struggling to make myself legible to the economy for the past five years because the economy is wrong. It's getting more complex instead of simpler, and that's a broken pattern.

It's about to end, but only if we can get this meme to spread. We need a new internet holiday: Temporal Independence Day. I want to celebrate it on July 4, because of the memetic harmony that exists there.

In the next couple of weeks, I'm going to be able to prove exactly how valuable my research is, because I finally found some people to help me build Internet 2.0, so it's becoming a reality.

Like everyone, I've been going so hard for so long, and I'm exhausted.

I had a slight reprieve thanks to some generosity last month, so I'm going to attempt to recapture that same feeling until I can fully break free of this economic quicksand that we've created for everyone.

On July 4, I want us to celebrate the creators who make these platforms what they are. While the consumers pay the attention tax of the slop the platforms push, the creators doing the most valuable work are often the ones who don't get rewarded.

So I'm trying to set a precedent of asking for help, showing a pattern for others to follow, and I'll hopefully be able to finally make the problem visible to people

with everyone I've talked to over the last month, I've realized that I'm not alone in my struggles. Let's make the problem visible, before it kills anyone else.

The creators of the world are doing all of the work and capturing almost none of the value. With Internet 2.0, that changes. Rapidly changing tech isn't valuable.

Stability is. And creators are the stability that the platforms don't appreciate nearly enough.

Let's create an internet holiday together that celebrates the creators that make the internet a beautiful valuable place.
