Conference is tame and pandering to deep pockets. On one hand I understand the desire to tread carefully and be approachable as we encroach mainstream adoption. On the other hand, we risk losing touch with our roots. The Bitcoin community shouldn’t bend the knee for politicians and billionaires. Bitcoin and nothing else. You either get it or you need to study up.

Goddamnit, nostr:nprofile1qqsp4lsvwn3aw7zwh2f6tcl6249xa6cpj2x3yuu6azaysvncdqywxmgprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqyvhwumn8ghj7ur4wfshv6tyvyhxummnw3ezumrpdejq4k23nj is a national treasure. Finally some maxi toxicity to balance out all the cRyPto shenanigans at #thebitcoinconference. Keep it simple, stupid. Buy and self custody btc - then, kick back and watch the world’s wealth melt into orange. #btc #maxi #staytoxic

Bryan Johnson bothers me so much. I really don’t understand why he was invited to speak at the Bitcoin conference. The guy is scared to death of dying. Death is part of the natural mystery, it’s not a disease or something that needs to be cured. Life is precious because it’s SCARCE. The guy is speaking at a Bitcoin conference where one of the many underpinning qualities of Bitcoin is its scarcity. Read the room. 🙄

PSA: if you are at a grocery store, put the goddamn cart away in the corral when finished. Even if you have to walk it all the way back up to the store. A minor inconvenience, but lower that time preference. Get your steps in. Don’t be a lazy F. It’s petty, but it says a lot about your character. #groceries #nostr #PSA

Can you feel it? Coiled. Primed. bottled up and ready to rip. Like many before me, I came here for NGU but stayed for the revolution. Because you’ve got to believe a better world is possible. We are the dreamers. The Hodlers of dynamic spirit. The doers of a new dawn - crafting a future rooted in verifiable truth and scarcity, aligned with the finite sands of human time. Let’s be sure to remember why we are here. Give thanks for being alive to witness the unfoldment and fulfillment of Satoshi’s gift. #btc #bitcoin #satoshi

Connected with a friend recently who got another dog. Great..awesome. Good guy great guy, but no partner. In and out of relationships. Can’t/doesn’t want to commit. This is the reality of the modern age: single or you’re a DINK. Granted, I realize this isn’t always by choice and everyone’s situation is different. However, having two kids myself, I can tell you there is nothing more meaningful you can do with your life than pay it forward and pass down your genetics. Kids can be a lot of work but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Filling that nurturing “hole” with pets isn’t the answer. All the plants and animals spread their seeds. To procreate is to partake in the deepest, most sacred part of The Mystery. I love my dog, but it’s not the same deep rooted love and connection I have for my kids. There are no substitutions. Spread your seed. Have kids. Life rips.

Music history in a nutshell…Anyone appreciate ska and/or Ska Punk? There’s a neat history behind this particular music and how it evolved. Mid/late 60s, Jamaican ska was booming thanks to the likes of Desmond Dekker, Skatalites, Wailing Wailers. The influence of this music eventually morphed into Rocksteady and Reggae with its slowed down tempo and heavy bass lines. However, the upbeat tempo of ska made its way to the UK where the Jamaicans intermingled with the punks. This lead to the late 70s “2 Tone” era encompassing a sharp/punchy energy to the mix. The punk influence was in full effect with high energy upstrokes fueled by a desire for social change and racial unity (Ie. Selector, The Beat, Specials). Enter the third wave: Orange County, CA in the mid to late 90s. Building off previous influence, the third wave ska movement kept the high energy of its predecessors but was highly influenced by their particular flavor of punk intertwined with the OC hardcore/skate scene (Reel Big Fish, No Doubt, Aquabats) I really enjoy all waves of ska, including ska punk. It’s cool to give respect to the origins of sound - Where it came from and where it will go. I frequently listen to Jamaican ska, but tonight I revisited a classic 90s Ska Punk album: “Hello Rockview” by Less Than Jake. Despite origins in Fla, it’s an all time favorite of mine and a definitive album of the era. Front to back, it’s a fun nostalgic trip back to a time and a place. It’s grounded in youthful undertones mixed with punchy anthemic horns, guitars and catchy lyrics. As a kid being wrapped up in the skate/snow scene, it definitely had an influence. It’s fun to trace the history of that particular sound all the way back to 1960s Jamaica. The common thread is there despite the radical change in sound. If the below doesn’t suit you - try some classic 60s ska. Taste the origins, then revisit to sense the commonalities. Anyway - Hello Rockview: https://open.spotify.com/album/2F9QXXQKnqqyzI1u4UK1Ss?si=5ifpUjDqQ0KVoaIbcXdTZQ #Ska #LessThanJake #Music #History #2Tone #HelloRockview #SkaPunk

For the yogis out there: super solid strength-based vinyasa flow. This is one of a few that I have been doing weekly for the past several years. Who needs a gym? Get after it. https://youtu.be/t2UCGc4eUHo?si=h---ShDBlafS2mS9 #yoga #vinyasa #breatheandflow #nostr

Question for the #nostr #primal community: is there a way to block users from following you? All I’m seeing on primal is the ability to mute which isn’t good enough. The “report” button doesn’t lead to anything. I’ve had a few accounts follow me over the last couple of months who are actively trying to scam and I want to remove them entirely. Happy to #zap for any solutions. Thanks in advance.

I have a new hobby: commenting on every single piece of Bitcoin FUD on Forbes articles. So many salty tears. “bUT bItCoIn uSeS eNeRgY”, yea no shit. Energy usage is the price of progress, dumbass. Bunch of geriatric cavemen out there refusing to use fire. #nostr #forbes #bitcoin #FUD

Some go on shopping sprees, I prefer zapping sprees. ⚡️#nostr

Tri Tips are the best cuts. If you know, you know.

Getting a little stoned and wandering through Costco is a 10/10 experience. I felt like a grounded and mellow version of Raul Duke, examining the full spectrum of the human being. Observed a guy driving what looked like a street sweeper, cleaning the floors and snagging drive-by samples. Are you not entertained? How wild is it to be anything at all? #costco #nostr

GM. Rise up. Follow the orange towards a better world. In the words of Terence McKenna, “have a plan. If you don’t, then you become a part of somebody else’s plan.” Rise to the occasion, and steer the ship. Let the orange glow ripen you into the person you were meant to be: free. #GM #Bitcoin #Orange #freedom #livefree #nostr https://m.primal.net/Nzit.mov

Stacking sats is a powerful act of honoring and loving your future self - a profound expression of self-respect. Every satoshi saved marks a moment when you consciously resisted impulsive fiat-driven desires, choosing instead to preserve energy for the person you are becoming. It is a gesture of mindfulness, like bringing your hands to heart center and bowing before a version of yourself that has yet to exist. Bitcoin is spiritual money. #bitcoin #spiritual #namaste #love #honor #respect #sats #satoshi #nostr

Stick a fork in an electrical outlet. Look down the barrel of a loaded gun. Lose your life savings by gambling on shitcoins. Darwin Award winners come in many forms. Shitcoinery is one of them. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. #shitcoin #bitcoinonly

What happens when an unstoppable force hits an immovable object? Catastrophic melt-up of the scarcest asset humanity has ever seen. Fasten your seatbelts. Stay humble, you are right where you should be. #bitcoin #nostr #primal #stayhumble #stacksats
