You can love people more when you trust yourself to be able to walk away. People get so scared of “falling in love” or having intense feelings, romantic or not, for anyone. And I get that, you can get your heart stomped on. But being really into someone, romantically or platonically, is really good for you! It makes your day better when you think about them, it fills you with happy hormones, it just makes life more worth living. When you get a bit old, and after you’ve already had your heart stomped on a few times, you can get pretty good at knowing when and how to walk away. And once you trust yourself to be able to walk away, then you can really dive into appreciating someone. Go on and be obsessed. If they become an asshole you can say goodbye. And there is no need to feel bad about it. You gave love because you are a loving person, and they were the ones that lost that.

Sometimes I want to be stupid rich, but not so that I can go to the Met Gala or feel superior to others, but just so I can do ridiculous shit ... like buy myself and 4 friends last min tickets to China so we can try some cafe I saw on TikTok.

In San Juan in the night sky, we have stars. In Chicago in the night sky, we have airplanes lining up to land at O’hare.

If you're an American experiencing apocalyptic dread, I've found the most beautiful soundtrack for your break down. James Blake's Like The End.

I find strict atheists to be just as illogical as the very religious. If you’ve got any honesty, you gotta admit that we just have no #$#@$ idea. Just think about it, we can barely even get ourselves off this rock floating around in the middle of nowhere, we can’t cure cancer, we can’t even stop murdering each-other… and we have the insane idea that we understand the universe? Madness! We have no idea. And sometimes that is even more terrifying than thinking we vanish into nothingness. But it’s the truth. All we got are shots in the dark.

I've pondered and pondered and am now convinced that the single most important thing in this life is your relationships with others. I just think that's the only thing you take with you when you leave this dumpster fire of a planet.

I've probably got a whole journal entry about it.

Don’t try to spice things up. If you’ve been with someone a long time and the “spark” is gone, don’t try to “spice things up”. It will just lead to everyone feeling pressure and frustration. The “spark” leaves when you’ve grown apart, or become room mates, or when the both of you have just stopped trying. And deciding to do some sexual role play scene with your room mate that you’re just not that into really isn’t going to go well for anyone! Instead, reconnect. Read a book together. Go out for long walks. Go on a trip together. Get drunk together. When you can actually see that person again, when you remember why you were so into them… that’s where the “spark” lives.

Banks and banking services still are really valuable to Bitcoiners, and always will be, and please make use of them. The most obvious current example is the wrench attack. There are plenty of people who very famously have ridiculous amounts of money, pop stars, sports stars etc. but a wrench attack is very rare there. It’s not just because they have security teams, it’s also because they have banks… they don’t keep the money in their house! The banks have the vaults, they have the security cameras, they have the security guards. If you are a bitcoiner who doesn’t have the means to or the desire to have all those things, well, you go get a safety deposit box and pay a bank for their willingness to let you enjoy all of their security efforts. Wrench attacks happen when a thief gets the idea that you have a giant pile of digital cash accessible in your home. So Bitcoiners, please don’t be scared of using banking services, pay them for their security services, and please don’t have a pile of digital cash in your home!

The Bitcoin vibe on Twitter is so sad. All this forcing others to take pills or bend knees 🤢 I’m a big hippie y’all, I’m not here to “dominate” others. I’m just trying to build some cool shit that makes life a bit better… for everyone 🫶🧡✌️
