I installed Radar over the weekend and am using it as my messaging app for immediate family. It works great and I like having a more private solution.

The pump and dump continues.

I want to be an asset holder not a creditor on someone else’s balance sheet. I want a house not a REIT I want a stock certificate not a promise to basket of shares I want physical cash not a bank balance and a card I want bitcoin in cold storage not an ETF I don’t want your counterparty risk and I don’t give a shit about your market structure bills.

@primal Great work on the app. Here is a small change that would make the app much easier to use for me. I have an iPhone mini with a case. It is extremely difficult for me to bookmark a post without going into the thread. If there was a bigger margin on the right of the bookmark icon then it would so much easier to click. Here is a screenshot.

In downtown of a top 20 sized city in Canada. I’ve lived in the area for almost 20 years. Just sad to see how far it has fallen. Homelessness, mental illness and drug addiction has overtaken what used to be a vibrant downtown. I hate coming down here and no longer feel safe.

I’m inspired by @Achilles who posts great content to remind us all to focus on what really matters in life. Every year I make a rink in my backyard. My kids play hockey, which rules our lives in the winter. Playing a competitive sport teaches so many skills: resilience, communication, determination. All great skills for later in life. We have a new addition to our house. A dog who is experiencing her first winter. It is great watching the kids play with her on the rink. She’ll bite my boots while I shovel it, chase pucks around and reluctantly toboggan down the snow hill built at the back. We’re stacking memories!
