Cyber Seagull on Nostr: ...
quoting nevent1q…l55zIt's pre-dawn in Transverazina, a small agricultural nation ruled by an iron handed dictator and kleptocracy in eastern europe.
I'm crouching in a culvert next to a rural road covered in a blanket bought for some sats yesterday on my hurried flight out town.
Thank you Pavlo, for the warning about the ministry of internal services sudden change of heart about my article on potato yields.
Thank you unknown peasant woman for the few moments of warmth and dew laden rest i'm taking now.
I spare a few hours before making the run accross the border.
The sun will be up after that, the unseen warmth and freedom rekindles The tinder of my inner motivation.
I tap my chest pocket, it's there, by hardware wallet.
"Everything will go as planned. Pavlov's sister will be waiting for me with tea and sugar on the other side." I reasure myself in air chilled bursts of mist. I relax a littke more.
Headlights, light up the trees hanging far and away, above the road.
A car, slow rolling, as though looking for something...no
It creaks to a stop above me...no..
"Antonella Vipastia ? Ish that you ?"
It was a friendly sounding voice, not authorutarian at all. I dare look up.
It was an authoritiatairian. The assistant to the sargent assigned to me infact, i've have had several "tea" sessions in his office but i've never actually heard him speak before. Damn.
"How?" I let out, intending to be dignified, but it escapes as a scream.
In full leather uniform the adjutant interegator tips his hat almost embarrassed, and slicks his hair with the other hand.
"Ve noticed a donation from a human rights organization address, right around the time of your nomination, und kept a gentle eye on it for a few years. Later a purchase from it to a...Vilma Kotchenko, for one very large pink "Hello Kitty" blanket caught the notice of our software , which informed us of a 78.66% chance you would flee."
I buried my head into the dirt, wishing i could just dig through it a few miles.
"You are not fleeing though are you miss ? You...just have an odd taste in hobbies yes ? Come along now... be a good girl... let's get you warmed up with some good office tea...und perhaps review some of your other bitcoin purchases on the public ledger yes ?"
