🚨 DON'T WAIT FOR TRUMP! Or for Elon, or anyone else, to make your life better/worse: Simply study #Bitcoin to benefit AND study #Bitcoin to protect yourself. Do it yourself for yourself (and everyone you love). No middle man. HODL! πŸ†

I don't want to pretend like I'm unreservedly happy right now. I organized Scandinavia's first #Bitcoin conference and fucked up the budget really bad. Got depressed and stupidly found brief comfort in drugs. Having suddenly lost so many hard earned sats I had held for years made it feel like nothing mattered anymore. Before I knew it, I had wasted what little I had left in a self-destructive spiral. I will never be able to earn them back and I still wake up with a panic attack every few nights. My kids keep me going, but also racked with guilt πŸ˜” I'll never stop stackin' though and I'm never spending another sat in my life!

The German economy is tanking, but Berlin remains largely unaffected because: a) No one pays taxes b) Elon's Gigafactory c) We were already poor

Is it true that people will only remember you for the zaps you sent?

I love Nostr as much as the next ostrich, but I'm damn glad I didn't leave X right now.

I wrote a #Bitcoin song this summer. It didn't get much traction, but maybe this is a better time to share it with you all? 😁

How do we actually fix education? πŸ€” Everyone seems to agree that our current model is hopelessly stuck in the industrial age, where students sit in neat rows completing mundane tasks to make them good factory workers. Yet I haven't seen many real platforms or proposals on what education should be like. Is homeschooling the only way? 🀷 I'm sure there must be other ideas out there. Enlighten me.

Most Trump voters are the Lord of the Rings type: they are Hobbits who were quite content to ignore and be ignored by the world of the Big Folk, until it threatened their home and way of life. Now they are on a mission to destroy the ring of power to save all of Middle Earth. But really they just want to go back to the Shire and make babies with Rosie in peace. Some Trump voters are the Harry Potter type: they believe it's their destiny to defeat evil or die trying, so the rules don't apply to them. They go looking for trouble and often attract it, not realizing they're causing most of the wand violence. But they are pure at heart and will happily organize an armed resistance if the Ministry falls. Then you have the Game of Thrones type: image

It's fair to be a little smug today, but America needs Republicans to be the bigger party. Don't do what Democrats would have done. Seek to reconcile and share the future. #ManifestUnity πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²

Imagine how Ross feels right now as they call Pennsylvania for his liberator. Imagine how his mother feels as she realizes Ross is really coming home. NEVER EVER GIVE UP! #FreeRoss image

No one in Europe is ready to admit this, but here's the truth: In our heart of hearts, Europeans are terrified of taking responsibility for ourselves again. While we certainly fantasize about a strong, independent Europe, we prefer the comfort of US hegemony - even when it comes at our own expense. This way we don't have to deal with anything, and can blame the Americans for everything. Yet we also all know this can't last forever. We know this bargain involves losing ground year after year, while the US is becoming an ever less reliable hegemon. Sooner or later we'll face a big reckoning. We all know it. But if Kamala wins, things at least stay the same for now. We can postpone dealing with ourselves for another term. Perhaps. So yay Kamala, signed 200 million cowards. image

The blueprint is the fall of Rome and you're paving the way to the Dark Ages. There is never a second generation of people who don't have kids and build families. Loneliness may punish her, but it won't save us. Are these women stupid or do they just not give a fuck? image

Whatever your wildest prediction for #Bitcoin, you're wrong. $1M $10M or $100M doesn't matter. The dollar value will continue to trend towards infinity for as long as the dollar continues to inflate, which is for infinity until fiat dies. The purchasing power will trend towards infinity for as long as economic potential grows, which is for infinity until humanity dies. On the latter point I might add that we look likely to add another planet to our economy soon. ∞/21M means you can never be too late for #Bitcoin. Today is always the best day to stack sats 🀘

The cells' ignorance doesn't make the body less real, nor the cells' less dependent on it.
