Chinese cryptocurrency entrepreneur Justin Sun outbid six other rivals to get the "Comedian" installation of the Italian visual artist on Wednesday.
"In the coming days, I will personally eat the banana as part of this unique artistic experience."
The taped banana was actually bought earlier in the day for a mere $0.35.
A former mutual from TW who tried CoSo, asks me about that “stupid morning ritual of greetings”
Stupid to whom?
It’s like hanging my laundry on the line, while yelling Hey over all the fences to one another.
These days require we tighten our circle lest we be lost to hate, racism & chaos.
I’m so grateful to have y’all.

Aerial view of #NYC
We start at the bottom and work our way up. Starting with the western half of #Brooklyn, the largest and most populous borough in the city. In terms of poulation size, its considred to be the 4th largest in the US (even its part of NYC).
That small island in the center of the photo, just above Brooklyn is Governor's Island, which has a big role in our colonial history.
To the right of the island, (skyscrapers) is Wall Street & Chinatown in Lower #Manhattan.

5. Andy Warhol
It's easy to find the soup cans at MoMA, just look for the swarm of students crammed up taking selfies in a cloud of ironic postmodernism
I have always hated Andy Warhol. So pretentious, his visage cemented across cultures as the personification of elite sophistication
For what? Reproducing advertising & celebrities with different colors, in a damn "Factory"??
Eff this effing guy. Was he taking the piss?
Then I saw the Oxidation Paintings, & got the joke.
“ According to research into the molecular changes associated with aging, humans experience two drastic lurches forward, one at the average age of 44 and the other at the average age of 60.
"We're not just changing gradually over time; there are some really dramatic changes," geneticist Michael Snyder of Stanford University said in August when the study was published.
"It turns out the mid-40s is a time of dramatic change, as is the early 60s.”

Today was a major fiasco! Headed into the city to meet a friend at the Met. Too late, I realized I'd forgotten my phone. Well, I figured, I'll meet my friend where we always meet 🤞 I get there, & the damn Met is closed on Wednesday ( how did we not know that? Friend is a member) So, home again. Waste of time, money & friendship. Arghh!!
