If I ever quit tech I think I'd run one of those hippie dippie wellness retreats, but like with science. So you can totally bring your crystals and do sound baths if you like, but we also have Congnative Behavior Therapy and anti-inflamitory food. Chant whatever you want but you have to do your EMDR session! And it won't cost an obscene amount cuz it's just some shack on the side of a mountain in Peru. So you just have to get down there then it's like $250!

It’s one of the most consistently difficult things in my life, how on earth can someone hold the reality that this could all end at any moment, at the same time as they engage in long term planning? Car accident, WW3 nuclear blast, stroke, etc. you just never know. And you then have to hold that knowledge while planning your kids education, deciding if now is the right time to refinance your home, making a 5 year career plan… like I just don’t think the human mind can really do that. So in a lot of ways, you just gotta say fuck it and go for it knowing that you and everyone you know will die, but just live anyway.

Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. So what turns pain into suffering? Shame. At least for me. How about for you?

Just watched a disturbing video on Instagram. It's a dude explaining how Epstein trapped people and how some of his friends almost got trapped. he describes a situation where a business man goes to meet with Epstein looking for investment and after the meeting Epstein say 'hey I'm about to get a massage would you like to join me?' and the masseuse is an attractive young woman and during the massage she then gives dude a hand job and dude doesn't realize that the masseuse is 17 & there are cameras in the room. Boom, he got you! Do you see the problem here? This guy presents this situation as if it's just a freak accident that anyone could fall into. Like a car accident, just a sad unfortunate situation. And he completely glosses over, and just assumes that all middle aged business men are quite happy to accept a hand job from a woman young enough to be their daughter. And who the fuck actually does that? Who just has such low moral standards that with out even thinking about it they cheat on a significant other, and with someone young enough to be their child? No way bro. That's no accident. If you got caught by that you 100% deserved it!

The ends never justify the means. You are the means you chose.

When I put on a long dress and let my hair down I look like some sort of religious cult member. ...maybe that's why the Red Pill dudes always want to talk to me. I certainly look like the nice submissive wife of some fundamentalist Christian dude!

If you’re a dude who thinks of himself as a protector, that’s awesome, I fully support that. ...but what kind of protecting do you actually do? I think a lot of “protectors” just periodically go to the gym and then decide that if they should ever witness a man violently attacking a woman right in front of them that they would intervene. What is certainly something, but that is very unlikely to actually happen. That’s not how predators function. If this is the only way in which you protect, you are very unlikely to ever do any actual protecting. Predatory men are not cavemen, they are just as smart and calculating as you and me. To do real protecting, you need to keep an eye out for the types of assault that are very common. First, Predators prey on women when they are alone. You probably don’t understand how common street harassment, groping, and SA is because it never happens right in front of you. Again, these predators aren’t dumb. They rarely do this in front of other men. They wait until a woman is walking alone, or is somehow secluded and in a vulnerable moment. Second, predators don’t defend themselves with their fists, they defend themselves with public perception. “But he didn’t do that to me.”, “But he’s a pillar of the community.”, “but he’s a hard working guy.”, “but he’s a sophisticated business man!”, “it’s just a he said she said situation.” Serial predators will work very hard on their public perception so that their accusers will not be believed. Again, these are not simpletons, they are smart, they know what they are doing. If you want to actually protect, protect the perception of women in the world. Protect societal respect for women. Protect women’s rights and women’s autonomy. Protect proper processes and real justice. Object when your friend makes a rape joke. Speak about women like they are real, complete human beings. Don’t default to believing the man when an assault is reported, default to demanding a full investigation. Keep your eyes out for men expressing predatory views. Warn your female friends. Walk with them.

For the past few weeks my head has been a swirl of authoritarianism, Epstein files, political instability... I am full of rage, as any decent person should be. I feel that I should be doing more, but I’m delighted that I wake up each morning & work on decentralized tech. What is abundantly clear is that the absolute worst of us will do literally whatever is necessary to gain power over others. We can not trust institutions to protect us for very long. The best bet we’ve got is creating systems that do not allow for concentrations of power. “If you build it they will come”… if you build the concentration of power, it will be co-opted. Never was it more clear that the best thing we can do here is first to seek justice, but then to build and use decentralized systems. No one is coming to save us. We gotta do this shit ourselves.

gulp, I got the video of me giving a presentation en Espanol! I was so nervous to give the talk and I'm nervous to look at it 🫣 But here it is! https://rumble.com/v75x560-la-revolucin-silenciosa-dlares-digitales-sobre-bitcoin-plan-forum-el-salvad.html

I love men that can wear a skirt, or paint their nails, or wear some dangling earnings. Ya know why? There has been this pervasive collective unconscious idea in the world that femininity is inherently less than, pathetic, embarrassing. And when a man is terrified of appearing in any way feminine, it very strongly gives me the impression that he also finds femininity to be less than. "I'm not ashamed to dress 'like a woman' because I don't think it's shameful to be a woman" - Iggy Pop When I man can be unashamedly feminine I feel safer with him. I get the impression that maybe he is capable of respecting me and respecting my mind and my decisions 🫶

People get more worked up over high taxes than they do over literal child torture rape and murder. ...and this is why we have the world that we do. Pathetic.

Where are the protectors? Where are all these dudes that want to hold that title? When ya gonna do some protecting? I think it’s about time you relinquish the title of protector to the wine Mom’s.

The world is run by pedo cannibals and aliens are real, but whatever, here are some pictures of my very long hair. I've got to document this as I'm going to chop it all off!

2026 is the most bizarre year of my life... and it's Feb 15th.
