Art Word of the Day
Every day I make an attempt to add a little bit more art knowledge to the Internet, one word at a time. Realizing there aren’t many comprehensive and complete online art dictionaries, I set out on a mission to compile my own.

Download the Brave Browser and get $5 in the cryptocurrency BAT!!
The Brave Browser pays you in BAT (Basic Attention Token) to allow them to display their ads, which you can then use the BAT you earn to tip content creators or just exchange for another crypto. I'm making about $15 a month just from the ads, which are very non-intrusive, and all while simply using the Internet as I normally would. Brave comes with a built in script blocker and ad blocker so it's also very fast and very safe. I opened Firefox the other day and regretfully remembered what a monster it is on resources.
If you download and use Brave as your Internet browser using this link we both get $5 in BAT!!

I upvoted your post, but I can see @themarkymark's criticism of this content. What can you offer that adds more? It looks like Wikipedia rather than Steemit is the place to answer these questions, so what could you add to make this most more substantial, personal, and informative? What are examples of art funded under this program? Does government funding help art as a whole, or subsidize insiders? How do people value this art as time passes, and does it still strike a chord or add value to peoples' lives now? What are the main arguments in economic debates about the merits of public art funding? Was the New Deal really beneficial, or did it exacerbate the very problems it was advertised to solve? There is room for deep discussion and analysis, but all I see is a single paragraph followed by a lot of chaff, to be honest. Wikipedia offers more info with less dead weight, so maybe something more should be added here to create value for the reader when my considered comment far outweighs the word count of your actual content here.
@jacobtothe I used to write a lot of long form content for Steemit. The 6 or so articles I link to at the bottom of this post are just a few; there's a lot more. But I stopped doing that because Steemit does not have a very good rewards system: The rewards didn't match the work. So now I give steemit the level of quality that matches the rewards I get. $0.003. Well, I used to. Now I just don't care at all. I find it ironic that you'd complain about the length and quality of my content while ALL of my content is currently being systematically downvoted, regardless of it's "length" or "quality". Furthermore, some people don't want to read a long article. If everyone on Steemit wrote long articles a lot less posts would be read. Short, concise and informative can also be considered high quality, and can inspire someone to do further research.

You got far more than $0.03 before I started flagging.
After reading some of your posts it's obvious you're not very smart, and quite horrible at math. You believe things only children would believe. You throw a temper tantrum like a child, and you have a sociopathic/narcissistic personality. You enjoy ruining people's experience on this platform almost as much as you like playing video games... like a child. I'm not going to spend any time explaining to you why you're wrong. But every time you interact with me I'm going to remind you that you have no friends outside of steemit because your sociopathic personality prevents you from feeling love or genuine connection with another human being.

Cat got your tongue? You can only downvote in hopes others will not see my words... like a child.

Says the guy who just got $23 in "legitimate" upvotes on the shit you just posted 11 minutes ago. You think gaslighting works on me?

#newsteem is resulting in far better rewards for content creators now. Curation matters again. Steem prices are beginning to rise from the depths of bid bot buyers and sellers dumping their ill-gotten gains for Bitcoin. But if you're going to downvote my constructive criticism comments with a sock puppet account, you're not going to engender any sympathy from me if @themarkymark keeps flagging you into oblivion.
You mean there was a possibility of sympathy? I'll remove the downvote in a bit.
ArtTurtle is not a sock puppet any more than upboater or buildawhale or mackbot or a slew of other bots that have downvoted my posts. And why be upset about a downvote? It's #newsteem.
Steem is having a false rally. Its one of the most manipulated altcoins on the exchanges. It will be $0.05 by January.
If the new 50/50 rewards scheme worked than ArtTurtle would be earning a lot more steem. It's not. With 3000 SP curation rewards are about 3 STEEM per week. That's a whopping $0.45!! Woo hoo! Brave pays me more like $15 in BAT every month just to use the browser. And I get another $30 to $100 of BAT as tips to my websites and youtube channels. Steemit has never paid out that much. Brave requires zero investment. Steemit in based entirely on the size of your investment, a requirement that has caused a lot of people to lose a lot of money. Minds.com is even better. For no money down and very little time invested I've launched a much more successful social media campaign that has attracted many real, genuine people that interact with my content. I get occassional downvotes on minds too but I never have to worry about that removing my rewards and there are no tyrannical whales acting like sociopathic monsters wrecklessly and needlessly destroying other peoples accounts, so you know, it's better.
