People were asking me "why are you using AI for the background of your product pictures?". Because I used to take those pictures from the floor of my shitty studio.

Everyone is shocked when I tell them I believe in the right to be racist.

I feel like I'm building so much more than a company. I'm building a House with a big H.

Saving money when you're young is overrated. Nothing wrong with putting some money on the side, but it shouldn't be the priority. The priority is to create momentum in your life and move forward. You have to spend to take action. Take action.

I swear one of these days I will evolve away from wallets. Think in decades and you'll perceive my game plan.

I know it's the most cliche thing to say but thank God for music. It probably saved my life. Or at the very least it saved my sanity.

Experiencing @Bitcoin Beans @Snorkel and @woodMiner Let's start with the cacao from Bitcoin Beans. What a beautiful product. Raw cacao is so very Bitcoin. As much as wine, honey, maple syrup, coffee, silk... You'd find it in the old trade routes of the 16th century. The smell and taste is intense. VERY bitter. I tasted a nib by itself as soon as I got it. IMMEDIATE REGRET! I wasn't ready. It's an acquired taste. I probably won't be putting raw nibs into my yoghurt. But that's fine because I got it for hot coco cérémonies. I have to find the best recipe for me, but I did 15g in 250ml of hot milk with some maple syrup and the taste becomes very enjoyable. I was worried I would find it difficult to enjoy for a while when I first smelled and tasted it raw. But it won't be a problem. I first grinded the cacao into a powder before mixing with the milk and maple syrup and heating it on the stove while making sure the temperatures dosent Go Higher than 70°. I read high temperature destroy nutrients at a certain point. I'm enjoying the experience a lot. I feel like I'm living my life at bit more from a first principle approach if that makes sense. One last thing that might trigger some of you, the packaging is a beautiful proof of stake. The nice magnet lid boxe is proving me that Bitcoin Beans actually cares about his product and is committed to provide and distribute it on the long term. ------- Very cute wooden prop from Woodminer. I'm probably going to use it as a Vallet tray for keys so I stop losing them. Very nice consolation prize for a lost king of the zap. I don't feel like I lost. ------- Cedar samples from snorkels! He wanted me to experience the burned smell and see if I prefer it over the Palo Santo. I would say that the Palo Santo smell is a very spicy one compared to the cedar. Cedar is sweet and less intense. I like it but it's different. The smell of the Palo Santo feels like it can keep demons away. The smell of the cedar feels like a cosy evening. ------ Thank you guys. I feel more Bitcoin. image

People who brag about not watching movies. Lol. Do you also brag about not going to museums or operas? Or is it just the art of cinematography that's been lost on you?

You ever started writing and got into it so much you start producing actual tears as you align the words? Sometimes I really get into it. I just wrote a banger about my mission on my private tweeter and there's probably not more than 15 people who're gonna see it.

This one time Saifedean sent me, out of the blue, a *hours* long video about the Jews. I completely ignored it. I didn't know what to say. I didn't want to watch it. I was busy in my own realm. I was busy building a business to survive. So very disrespectfully (wasn't my intention) I completely ignored it and never said anything. I stayed in my lane. A few years later I was approached by him and I signed a partnership with his company. Lessons in there.

Don't sell everything you have for bitcoin. With the help of Bitcoin, the goal is to own *more* things.
