Had I shared this video with you? It's pretty unreal. These are the new laws that our government passed in a rush before a long weekend and while families are preparing for new school year and returning from vacations, etc.

Four Bitcoiners in the year 2066. 😁🧡

House is clean, washing is done, car is serviced, tax docs are ready to send to accountant, all batteries for all appliances replaced (I do that every January), haircuts had by both of us, blood work done at doctor for us both, teeth all good at dentist, cleaned up pantry, fridge and shoe cupboard. Garden looking good and ready for the new year. Now this boomer is watching other Bitcoin Boomers at @BTC Sessions 🧡 Boomers talking about a revolution! 😂

Ha, ha! :)

Cummings Clearing Put reminders/alarms “in your way” to remind you of new habits. Question What is the next step in your evolution? Affirmation I choose to be patient. Uplifting Extra In this concise yet information-packed book, to which you can download the audio from the included link and listen to or read at your leisure, bestselling author Louise L. Hay shows you that you “can do it”. That is, you can change and improve virtually every aspect of your life, by understanding and using affirmations correctly. Louise explains that every thought you think and every word you speak is an affirmation. Even your self-talk, your internal dialogue, is a stream of affirmations. You’re affirming and creating your life experiences with every word and thought. Your beliefs are merely habitual thinking patterns that you learned as a child and many of them work very well for you. Yet, other beliefs may be limiting your ability to create the very things you say you want. You need to pay attention to your thoughts so that you can begin to eliminate the ones creating experiences that you don’t want. (Link is below)

Tick tock next block, Bitcoin doesn't do this (see screenshot). With my suspicious mind, I wonder what this outage was really about? 🤔👀 I don't trust them one teensy bit. 🤡

An easy, simple explanation for friends who still don't get that government, in collusion with banks, are the only ones who give us high inflation. Explanation: “Why Inflation Really Happens” Banks create money out of thin air. Most people think banks only lend out what you or I deposit. Not true. When a bank gives a loan, it just adds numbers to an account—they literally create new money. Government adds more money too. When the government spends, gives grants, guarantees loans, or hands out stimulus checks, it’s not just moving money around—it’s putting more money into the economy. More money chasing the same stuff = higher prices. When people suddenly have more money but the supply of houses, food, and fuel doesn’t grow as fast, sellers raise their prices. That’s inflation. Early recipients benefit most. Banks, big investors, and government contractors get the new money first and can spend it before prices rise. By the time it reaches everyone else, prices are already higher, leaving ordinary people worse off. Interest rates are the economy’s “cool down.” Raising interest rates doesn’t just make banks richer—it slows borrowing, reduces new money creation, and helps slow inflation. The system depends on borrowing. All the existing loans plus their interest need new money to be paid off. That’s why governments and banks keep encouraging borrowing and spending. The real fix? Honest, sound money that can’t be created out of thin air prevents this cycle. Bitcoin is the first ever example of money that works this way. Mini version: Most people think banks only lend out deposits, but they actually create new money whenever they give a loan. Governments do the same thing when they spend, hand out stimulus, or guarantee loans. More money chasing the same houses, food, and fuel drives prices up—that’s inflation. The first people to get the new money (banks, investors, contractors) benefit before prices rise, leaving ordinary people worse off. Interest rates aren’t just for bank profits—they’re the tool to slow borrowing and cool inflation. The system depends on ongoing borrowing, which is why banks and governments keep encouraging it. The fix? Sound money that can’t be printed into infinity, like Bitcoin.

For our health. One of these videos, I found. The other was sent to me by a friend. Enjoy!

#267 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes Wisdom On The Web Think about times in your life when everything just clicked. Maybe you were so focused on a project that time flew by. Maybe you had a conversation that led to an unexpected breakthrough. That’s flow and it’s not random. It can be created on purpose and you don’t need to fight life into submission. The smarter move is to learn how to work with it. When you’re in flow, things line up naturally. The right opportunities show up, the right people appear and progress feels effortless instead of forced.
