Dang. I logged into Twitter for the first time in like 6 months just to complain about #bitpay to their stupid face on an alt account.
I took one quick look down my feed and thought "why do people still use this X crap when #nostr exists?"
Using #bitpay is the worst experience I've ever had trying to pay for movie tickets online.
The payment failed and a refund was given with no explanation and you need to install their app and upload your drivers license to collect the refund.
This is absolutely insane!
#bitcoin
When is someone going to build a digital camera that produces and saves a video file only after sending a hash and timestamp to the #bitcoin time chain?
This #AI video is getting too hard to distinguish. We need a form of media we can trust.
Joshua 21:43–45
43. And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
44. And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.
45. There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

There are no unfulfilled promises of land owed to Israel.
I do not support Israel's war with Palestine or Iran, and I will remember all the American politicians who do.
I am a believer in and follower of Christ. I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God.
I grew up in a belief system known as Dispensationalism. Even though we didn't know it had a name. Over the years, I had developed issues with this system of biblical interpretation. Certain patterns of behavior that I saw (and still see) in my community troubled me.
So I have been reevaluating my methodology.
After many, many hours of biblical study and prayer, I now realize this system of hermeneutic practice is incorrect and, in many ways, a distorted view of God's holy word.
I am now convinced that Covenant Theology is the most aligned with the biblical intent of scripture.
I pray I can be a light to enable those around me to see God's word more clearly.
Maybe the concept of nation-state as guardian of civil liberties was a flawed on all along? The bureaucratic state always marches towards power consolidation. Use fear to take control and call it "patriotic".
