“Radical commitment to the fearless pursuit of truth” - Chad Thevenot

Sometimes it feels like everything I’ve studied critically and extensively since graduating college, sometimes for dozens or even hundreds of hours, gets labeled a right-wing conspiracy, despite the fact that I’ve found each thing to either be true and/or make my life better.

Noticing a lot of synchronicities lately. Making me realize how important it is to put positive energy out into the world because it creates the world around me.

Just watched this. Good watch.

“Where the sentiment of patriotism has been destroyed this can be done only by presenting every international conflict in a purely ethical light. If people will spend neither sweat nor blood for ‘their country’ they must be made to feel that they are spending them for justice, or civilization, or humanity. This is a step down, not up.” C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Since incandescent bulbs are banned in California, I guess I need a plug (no pun intended lol) for some non-flickering red light.

The day after I saw this happening, a dad and his son (maybe 7 years old) parked their truck on the bridge and hung up Christmas lights on the side of the bridge. This was a stark juxtaposition of #voluntarism against the Marxist behavior on the night before. View quoted note →

My very unprofessional model for my own understanding about the upcoming cycle. Based on vibes and people in the #Bitcoin space that I like

On a brighter note, I laid down in the grass in a park and looked at the stars and planets for half an hour tonight. Very peaceful and humbling. #gratefulstr

There has been some construction on the road of a bridge near me at night for the past few nights. They shut down a lane and alter traffic. I was curious what they were doing so I asked them on my walk tonight. They are grinding up the surface of the road and putting down a silt-like, rocky covering on the road. The purpose? To prevent freezing and to prepare for snow. In San Diego. The guys nervously laughed and said, “Gotta spend that money somehow.” I figured it is a program meant to give people jobs, but man is it depressing for two reasons: 1. My tax dollars are being wasted 2. The people working these jobs know that they’re doing soulless, meaningless, wasteful work. I could see it in both their eyes.

#asknostr How to have a #node running at all times while also turning off WiFi at night?

If the love of #money is the root of all #evil, how would you reconcile (y)our love of #bitcoin? My approach would be that I love Bitcoin for what it can do as a tool for myself and humanity. How could you see evil seeping into your relationship with it?

Tried sardines for the first time in a long time today. So good.
