I’m not an expert on history. I’m not religious. I’m not the one who can debate well on either front. But I know what I’m seeing in front of me with my own two eyes. It is inarguably, ethically wrong by all standards of decency for anyone, least of all a people that experienced the murdering of millions of their own to do anything, ever, for any reason that could remotely be considered genocide. The use of that term at all in the narrative should be a wound itself causing every party involved to ensure it stops. It’s somehow worse because of this, to me. It’s the most morally corrupt, ethically confusing thing I think I’ve ever seen in my lifetime. The dissonance of it…

This not only illustrates the illusory truth effect, but also anchoring bias: the tendency to be overly influenced by the first piece of information that we hear.

Sending a big thank you to the asshole who, a year or two ago, told me I wasn’t a “real bitcoiner” because I didn’t have an air gapped multisig setup. The gatekeeping condescension probably saved me from getting rugged. This is the only toxicity we need in this space. It’s actually about protecting people: from themselves. Or not, ya know, like, fuck off. I could have just deflected. I already *was* a “real bitcoiner”. Facts. But from that I fucking educated myself and it ended up protecting years of my proof of work. Some of you have lost the narrative and it shows. If I ever meet the dude I’ll legit thank him. He’ll probably tell me to go fuck myself. I wouldn’t have it any other way. image

A mother isn’t always the woman who brought you into the world, a mother who chooses you has a much different but very powerful bond. image

I can’t stand it when people say “As someone with anxiety…” Anxiety is something every single person feels. We are ALL someone with anxiety. More honest would be, “as someone who struggles to manage feelings of anxiety…” Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. 🫡
