I am really, really thankful for Bitcoin, and more importantly Bitcoiners. You people have really inspired me to be my best, and to know that we all have a great and extraordinary task before us that we are manifesting into reality. It is all becoming true, and with Bitcoiners we are going to right the wrongs of our world that are rooted in the lies and corruption that are fiat. Together we are going to free our people from this impossible problem that has been so graciously and serendipitously solved by Satoshi. I thank all of you for helping me know that I have a mission and purpose in this world, and it is with all of you who share in this great quest that is to liberate other being into the sovereignty that Bitcoin provides and teaches to all of us.

What excites me the most about Nostr is that we now have a protocol from which we can build literal killer apps. The internet was suppose to be free, and only over the last 30 years did it become walled off and enslaved to corporate and government interesting alike. I want to see us build each and every FOSS app possible to compete with and destroy the corporate apps, as our data is ours, and it should no longer be free for the raping and pillaging for fiat companies, with fiat interest, and fiat lords who are more than happy to sell you out to whomever they please. I’m here to watch the old internet die as much as I’m here to watch the new one we are birthing together.

More and more I believe bitcoin to really be a spiritual calling to each of us individually, to demand of ourselves and our communities to truly self-reflect on what it means to be spiritual beings, and what it means to dignify one another with a money that is absolutely scarce and cannot be stolen from one another. Each of us who know and understand what this technology is are to show our people what it really means so that we may birth a new age of love and prosperity for all, simply by righting the wrongs that fiat money has created in the world. It is a most glorious and noble cause to which I am repeatedly humbled by the task that my greatest responsibility is to simply speak this truth into the world, as each of you are also to do.

This actually presents the most exciting aspect of the insane cypherpunk future that we are going into. Just like cryptography and AI, all of the tools that billions were spent on developing will be expropriated and turned against the machine for the profit of the individual entrepreneurs who see how these tools can serve them best.

Shitcoin are specificity designed to separate money from the retarded to the unethical Bitcoin is designed to separate money from the unethical to the ethical. These are not the same thing.

It blows my mind that so many people don’t understand that all social media is actually a political apparatus that has been mutilated into the most debased crass garbage EXPLICITLY to mute out its political nature. We can interactivity speak and organize directly through a decentralized nature to millions of people now. There has never been a power so politically potent in human history, and this nature remains hidden because the moment it is truly understood as a political praxis it will become the most powerful political entity that has ever existed. We can now start the grandest conversation about what it means to be human in our day and age, and what The Political really is. If we are truly free people and not slaves subservient to a system of totalizing exploitation, than we should be able to use these tools to both throw off the yoke of digital imperialism, while also giving one another the knowledge/power to create a totally new territory of human freedom from which a new future may be born.

Thanksgiving I am thankful for my life--all of it. Each any every minor details that has created who I am, and my thrown life into this world. It is a complex and complete tale of how I am to become who I am suppose to be, and I am here for it. Despite the fact that most of my life I feel less-than, incapable, and incompetent about what is before me; there are moments into which infinity unveils itself just for the shortest of all durations and I can see it, I can see it all, and it is the face of God showing itself for the briefest of moments. But in those moments that all else is defined, and that the whole of who I am is realized in the flash of an instant; the entirety of my being is consolidated into one, and I am so thankful for what it is, and what I have been given. I can see each and every beautiful monad that is the path of my life towards who I am and the majesty of who I will become. Much of that becoming is only through my understanding of what Bitcoin is, what it represents in our world of today, and how it will allow for us to save humanity from the clutches of evil that are growing more powerful with each passing day. Bitcoin is not about money in any contemporary sense; but the birth of a new kind of law for all of humankind and into all of the known future for humanity. It is the one and only law that has always stood before time and always has and always will outlast the temporality of any being for what it really is: Aletheia. Speaking to this essence that I know to be Bitcoin is the task that I have been chosen for, and what I am most thankful for on this day. All people everywhere now have a form of law that can keep their wealth and property secured forever no matter what, and it is through the protocols of self sovereignty that Bitcoin as a social contract of what the being is through cryptography it represents. Bitcoin may now become our sacred value and relic that bonds all of us into the ethos of time itself, and what it means to be a human being on our planet today, and moving forward for all of human time. Only with Bitcoin have we discovered a new kind of law that is beyond the legality of any nation-state, and its armies of lawyers, bureaucrats and politicians; all who seek to make infinite war against everlasting peace, and enforce and invisible system of power, surveillance and control against all beings everywhere, forever. In short, fiat money is evil, and it must be destroyed. To destroy this evil system of surveillance, control, and domination is the most holy of all tasks of our time, and is a spiritual calling that many already have been called to. At this very time there are thousands that hear the call and are discovering for themselves the truth of the task before us all and what it means to be called to that. I am thankful for the task that I have personally been call towards to educate my people on the task of cryptosovereignty and the power to which each and every being may now hold to honor, respect, cherish, and dignify the one and only law will redeem us all from our fallen world and the sinister fate that we all have become ensnared within. We are to unveil the the laws of the universe together and the infinite capacity of cryptography to protect the knowledge of what is mine and what is yours for all peoples everywhere, forever. No matter their station of birth, creed of religion, color of their skin, or any other identifying feature; we may all now use the shield of cryptography to protect ourselves from anyone else who may seek to harm us through the very knowledge of who we are. To show people this secret is a most beautiful and sacred task that only the seekers shall know. It is a knowledge of what the future will become when it is freed from the avarice and slavery of moderninty and all of its appendages of death and power that seek to make us into slaves who are little more than flesh based machines for the free rape and exploitation of whatever powers there may be. What we see is the light and agency within each and every being to now choose a new and better existence for all through banishing the last vestiges of slavery that we call fiat money and all of the tentacles that come from that evil lie. It is an existence of purpose, drive, and calling that allows for a radical new world to be unveiled that needs you to help create it. Bitcoin needs your help show the world that understanding this is a most blessed and sacred of tasks. It is something that shall be remembered for all of human time to come for it represents the moment that humanity as one group of peoples finally stood up to take their place in history to be the final liberators of the individual from the oppression of the collective forever. Each being may now choose for themselves alone what system they will choose to create and support, or which they will be enslaved to and forced to serve. There will always only be one truth against any infinate number of lies their may be, and it is our task to expose the world to what this means, and how the return towards The Truth as Aletheia and how that shall set all of us free. No longer must we tolerate the lies of fiat money and the world it has created, nor will we continue to allow for the illegal, unconstitutional, and unethical wars that so guilefully and obtusely contort and control the money of the whole world to kill and enslave our brothers and sisters everywhere. Now is the time that we may rise to the task of freeing ourselves and our posterity from the yoke of fiat money and what it is, so that we may open the future towards a new and better time for all. It is time to free ourselves so that we may make the world a better place for all beings to be free forever. This is what I am thankful for this Thanksgiving, and I hope you are too. Thank you my friends, my brothers, my sisters; and thank you most of all to Satoshi Nakamoto—whoever you may be.

I’ve pretty much ate only steak and chanterelle mushrooms for the last week for dinner. Flatirons are becoming one of my favorite cuts.

I actually feel bad for government bureaucrats, having to shuffle around papers all day, acting like the most basic procedures are extraordinarily complicated, and are useless at actually helping people or making problems better. It must be a pretty defeated existence.

I finally figured out that I can just pitch liberal on bitcoin as it being anti-war money—I’m just gonna start with that now.
