I've been using Sundpowder this summer instead of sunscreen. I've found it gives you around 2 hours of full sun exposure before getting burned. Definite game changer for those who want to avoid putting sunscreen on your skin

I was inspired by the recent What Bitcoin Did podcast ( nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7cnjvghxjme0qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcqyrtl8gkckam5xwfxugu46v2e3yhgg70gwx5qpeqp7prlkz9dzlejkvg2vts ) with nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqs05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sgew2ua about the deflationary properties of bitcoin.
In order to better realize this property I spun up a browser extension for converting all prices to bitcoin/ sats. Taking steps toward fully embracing a bitcoin standard -

In 2022, I tipped a guy in Argentina $100 usd in bitcoin, about $30k ARS. Today it's worth $700 USD, and nearly $1M ARS...
I've been out of #bjj training with an injury for about a month and someone from my gym reached out to say they miss having me around.
It was a super small and simple gesture, but has truly made my day. Feeling a part of a community is an underrated part of mental health.
So if you ever feel like you miss somebody being around, reach out and tell them!
Realizing after years of hanging out with the same people that they can never EVER tell when I'm being sarcastic. Like holy shit, who do they think I am??
I never feel more useful than when my wife has an itch on her back that she can't reach 💪
#x fills me with irritation 😡
#NOSTR fills me with inspiration ✨
"How is this broken? This was working last week, nothing changed. How could this be broken?"

"Holy crap how did this ever work in the first place?"

I was once on acid, out with a friend getting beers. We were about to leave and he told me he closed out our tab. I was the last to walk out and one of the servers stopped and said "what the hell, c'mon man your tab is still open".
I asked my friend about it right after and he shrugged and said "meh they can afford it".
Seeing that part of my friends personality come out like that, while tripping, changed our friendship forever. I couldn't unsee it.
Trust is such fragile thing
There is nothing that will deteriorate a friendship faster than lying about stupid shit.

Last thought related to the practice of patience relates to #jiujitsu. I have made it habit to always tap early and tap often.
However, all it takes is one single instance rolling with a friend and thinking "I'm pretty sure I can wiggle of this arm lock" to screw up your shoulder for years.

Similar to the practice of patience is the process of dealing with grief.
You can overcome your grief in a single instance, but you can't overcome tomorrow's grief today
The tough thing about patience is that you have to be patient ALL THE TIME. Being patient isn't a single instance, but instead it's constantly overcoming your impatience.
All it takes to fail is 99 times of overcoming your impatience, and 1 time of failing. Virtue is sometimes an all-or-nothing game
this is why I DCA, because you NEVER know #bitcoin
It's winter now and the crows are gone. I had a crow during the summer that came to my porch every day. I'd feed him little bits of dog food. My dog was always jealous.
Miss you Sanjay! See you next summer
Hard night at #jiujitsu last night. Left feeling defeated and down.
Pushing through these days is what it's all about. Wouldn't it be worthless if it all came easy?
Today is a new day!
