waah waah waah food is so expensive I mean yeah but like there are people who never go to an actual grocery store. like if you gave them a bag of flour or a sack of potatoes they wouldn't know what to do. LEARN TO COOK!

I am having trouble relating to people who watch a lot of movie theater stuff or television shows. I know it's social engineering and I hate that someone who made these kinds of videos is trying to shape me into something I don't want to be. I don't know how to explain it to someone naive to social engineering without sounding like a crazy person. It doesn't help that the most vocal people on this topic are obnoxious evangelicals or people with obvious acute schizophrenia.

I put you know what in my you know whats and someone gave me 0.01 over a month ago. I don't know which post compelled someone to do this or who did it, so all I can do is feel a general sense that someone just thought I was really cool. with the other thing I always knew exactly what I said that made someone give it to me and I always knew who it was. still not sure how to feel about either scenario.

block the stream and sell liquid. the BCH people were completely right about blockstream, segwit, lightning, crazy luke, all of it. you rewarded them with pejoratives and expulsion. all it took to convince you was a bunch of low effort forum manipulation tactics. lol

99.9% chance the "MoE of the future" will be a stablecoin. the fact that it's a stablecoin will be completely invisible to the end user. you can thank blockstream et. al. for guaranteeing this future. there was a tender moment lasting only a few years and they completely ruined it. our toys will remain as an agorist sandbox on the fringes, with most people only pretending to interact.

jumping spiders are not creepy. you can leave a jumping spider alone even if you don't like spiders. jumping spiders are allowed in the ethnostate. if someone got reincarnated as a jumping spider they probably didn't even do anything that bad. I'd still love you even if you were a jumping spider.

I want Spark and Arkade to die. They are centralized money parking lots sitting next to LSPs. Exactly the same retarded idea as liquid+boltz combo wallets. They exist to justify lightning, and they are needlessly complex because they are trying to emulate covenants. This is the ugliest and stupidest way to achieve UTXO sharing. View quoted note →

The complexity of lightning is absolutely staggering. It has an unbelievable amount of technical surface area. You have been papering over it and hiding this complexity from the user behind centralization and central points of failure. It has spawned the most disgusting anti-bitcoin things conceivable in an effort to justify its own existence, and now all of these abominations are exploding and collapsing under the weight of the hidden complexity. PLEASE stop. It's been ten years of this shit. You are starting to learn the hard way. This is your final chance to admit you are wrong about lightning and leave it behind before it hurts even more people.
