Disruptors and curious minds, book lovers, readers! Welcome to book club.

Benjamin Franklin said once you lose it, you’ll never find it again. Theophrastrus said it was the most valuable thing you can spend. Pericles said it was the wisest counsellor of all. Oscar Wilde said punctuality steals it away.

Turns out they were all wrong.

Ladies and gentlemen, Albert Einstein. “The distinction between the past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.”

Or,

“Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.”

Isaac Newton said, “Absolute, true and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature flows equably without relation to anything external.”

Aristotle said, “Remember that time slurs over everything, let all deeds fade, blurs all writings and kills all memories. Exempt are only those which dig into the hearts of men by love.”

Time really is all we have. And in this months book club, we're talking about it in more detail than we ever thought possible. We're reading:

  • The Order of Time, by Carlo Rovelli.

Welcome to Book Club, where serious readers come to get more from their books. It's where adventurous book lovers come to understand concepts, share ideas and get different perspectives.

Please Enjoy The Show.

          —— What makes Lens special? ——

          1. It’s decentralized and composable.

          All Lens data is stored on the Polygon blockchain. This means that no company has control of your data, only you do! No one can delete your profile, posts, or followers

          Composable means that all of your data (followers, posts, etc) appear on every Lens website/app… it’s all shared!

          If you switch to a new Lens website, your data is already there!

          1. Posts can be collected

          Every post can be “collected” a set number of times for a price set by its creator. When a post is collected, a “collect” is created. This is a copy of a post. Each post can have a limited amount of collects

          Collects can be collected on most Lens platforms and can be bought, sold, and traded on LensPort

          Collects function as the economy of Lens! They are a novel new mechanism for creators to earn and for collectors to feel social ownership

          Try collecting your first post for free! lensport.io/p/1_1
