I never really got into poetry and I have never seen the appeal. But this poem struck me hard thanks the teachings of bitcoin and having a son of my own. It has helped me navigate the clown world where we are bombarded with transgenderism and anti white male rhetoric. This is a poem that I will be teaching my son one day: Rudyard Kipling, How To Be A Man If … If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream – and not make dreams your master; If you can think – and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, And stoop and build ’em up with wornout tools: If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’ If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings – nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run – Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And – which is more – you’ll be a Man my son!

Just banned for 12 hours on twitter today for saying: “@RishiSunak is a warmonger. Just like Tony Blair who should be hanged for his crimes against humanity.” Not so bad eh? Don’t think I’m wrong here? Just stating facts

Trying to transfer to Amethyst on my GrapheneOS phone but only have the one relay on there and it’s not connecting. Anyone know how I can fix this? I’ve tried adding relays but they don’t seem to stay there. Just defaults to the default relay which isn’t working

How do you add pics to this [insert word here for tweet]?

How do notes work? I’m assuming this is similar to quote tweets? But all I can find is the repost button on Damus. Is it just this client?

Thanks to my secret admirer who sent me 69 sats. What you trying to say? 😂

Fuck already getting shitcoin spam in my DMs

JUST IN (@discloseTV) - Websites of several German airports offline. The websites of Düsseldorf, Dortmund, Nürnberg, Erfurt, Baden-Baden, and Hannover airports are currently not accessible. A Russian hacker group has claimed responsibility for the attack on multiple German airport websites, Spiegel reports. Of course it’s a Russian hacker, lol! All these outages are surely part of the cyber pandemic predicted about 2 years ago now.

Anyone have hodlonaut’s npub for me? Can’t search his name

Crazy how fast Nostr is moving! It almost feels like home. A little buggy still but I can see myself moving over pretty fast. Following a lot of plebs now thanks to @imafox (tag didn’t work so maybe I’m getting that wrong - imafox@nostrplebs.com). Either way, I love what’s happening here! 💪🏼

Can someone test my LNURL please? My first time doing this.
