I went backpacking in the Wind River Range last week. It was absolutely incredible

Anybody else getting the distinct impression that the digital gates are being shut on freedom this week? It's more important than ever to liberate yourself from walled gardens

I walked into a convenient store in rural America and saw a BTC ATM near the door. I touched the screen to check out the interface and the spread. The machine was turned off. When I asked the clerk about it he said, "We don't want to have anything to do with those scams." I asked for clarification and he told me that an employee of the store had been social engineered into putting the whole cash register into the machine and sending the BTC to someone over the phone. He said an elderly man came in with 35K in cash and was feeding it into the machine while talking with someone on the phone. The clerk interrupted the scam and the old man left to go to the other store in town with a BTC ATM. Luckily the clerk was aware of the other store and called ahead to save the guy from being scammed. There's no easy solution to these issues.

Every government is really just a glorified Mafia. Taxes are extortion. Posted while walking past an FBI office.

Overheard between old men at a bar: "I'm sorry again about being late. I had my nose in a crossword puzzle and I looked up at the clock and said, oh shit."

I have two friends who regularly drink coffee and both frequently struggle with constipation. Listening to them talk about how they need coffee to poop is like listening to a stoner who needs weed to sleep. Doesn't seem right to me.

I'm about to go backpacking and will not have cell reception (or price updates) for six days. I love doing this.

The way this is edited makes it look like the sheep is spooning the guy

Sometimes the cheapest option is actually the most expensive
