GM I once met a man that loved to joke about others, but when he himself became the butt of the joke, he would become angry. Don't be that guy. Just embrace it.

Sometimes I feel like a barnacle and I just don't know if I'm anchored to the bow or to the stern of the ship.

GM The world is going "topsy turvy." If you would like to learn how I try and stay sane within this maelström of madness, please read my Musings on the Human Condition via this @Ungovernable Misfits blogpost: https://ungovernablemisfits.com/musings-on-the-human-condition/

I finally got round to making some artwork to go with my story in 21 Futures, Tales from the Timechain! Check out this sneak peek and read the first page of the tale. Here is the colored version of the illustration. Let us know if you would like a colored version of the book. I think @Niko 📚 Konsensus Network is considering it.

Please read my Musings on the Human Condition. Do let me know what you think on these matters, I'd love to learn. https://ungovernablemisfits.com/musings-on-the-human-condition Many thanks to @Ungovernable Misfits for publishing this to their website. Go give them a follow and check out their website too! Here is a little taste of what you'll read: # Musings on the human condition. It is not weird that various religions have gained a foothold in the minds of man when we realize that each and every one of us comes into being by some very improbable means. You are a descendant from a very long lineage of happenstances. Long ago, somehow, something came into being. We do not exactly know how or why, but it evidently did happen. Maybe it was always there. Who knows? It is a mystery. And it has perplexed and fascinated anyone who dared to look at it. Your pattern-seeking noggin is craving an answer on how and why it all happens. Existence. Hello World. Please keep in mind that no matter how improbable all of this may seem, you are, in fact, here. And you seem to be able to have some say in what is going on. Wow! Isn’t that marvelous‽ The way things manifested over eons past tells us a tale. A tale of stumbling and fumbling in the dark. Cold and hard survival. Uncaring environments. Brutal slaughter. Parasitic behavior. Push and pull and scream and shout. Chaos, sprinkled with small clumps of coherence. Some did so well that they even managed to duplicate themselves. Others congregated and started conversing among themselves in esoteric ways, frantically swapping out atoms and molecules in exchange for feedback. Was there conscious intent by these agents of happenstance? Were they just pieces in a predetermined game? Did some god set it up in advance, neatly planned out, or did he wildly trigger an avalanche of possibilities so complex even he could not foresee all possibilities? Some Penrosian retro-causality scheme to induce a sense of free will? No one really knows. But don’t worry. It is okay not to know. Perhaps it is sufficient or even better to rely on probability alone. That leaves a lot of room for creativity, doesn’t it? And I don’t know about you, but I see a lot of creative stories about why we are here and what it is we are supposed to do being passed around. Reading a book is like reading somebody’s mind. You open the page, and you travel in time and imagination to what that person thought. They took the time and effort to jot down these weird symbols on whatever medium they had available at the time. I find it strange. But it is also quite wonderful. Wouldn’t you agree? Maybe you think it is irrelevant. Perhaps you are right. Maybe not. Consider that there need not be a universal answer to some questions. Maybe, just maybe, it is the mystery that keeps things interesting. Let’s do a thought experiment. Imagine knowing everything. Every detail about everything that has ever happened and will happen. Scary, isn’t it? The thought makes me shiver. Next, try imagining nothing. Nothing at all. No sound, no word, no color, not even being able to come up with a concept of that weird word - nothing. Impossible. We can only imagine it as we compare it to something that is. As such, nothing is a logical impossibility. It cannot exist. So there we are. Without shelter or warmth. Only the vastness of the universe to consider. What is that sound? Is it a venomous snake in the shrubbery? Some unholy monster to strike you dead? Maybe it is your stomach, craving some grub. This is how it was for a lot of living things. And how it still is, for plenty. Albeit less so than it was, or so it seems, at this time of writing, block height #816333, in the year of our Lord (sorry) of Satoshi, no, no... Let me try again... I think block height will do. For old times’ sake, let's also include the Gregorian calendar. It is the 11th of November, 2023, and things are confusing AF. --- Continue reading via: https://ungovernablemisfits.com/musings-on-the-human-condition --- Consider buying the upcoming 21 Futures book: bitcoinbook.shop/products/21-futures-tales-from-the-timechain/?ref=sf21 Thank you for your time and attention.

GM frens As @ODELL says, "Stay humble & stack sats." Let me add that spending sats into the Bitcoin circular economy is a fine endeavor. Remember, eventually most people will be losing sats net. That is not bad. You just have to make sure you stay in the saddle.

Hey nostr, what do you think of this? The idiotic saying used to be: When you assume , you make an ass out of u & me. Let's instead use: When you assume, it amuses those who know. What do you think? #anagram #asknostr
