Now that I've had a decade of Father's Days, I've come to realize that it is the day that fathers work extra hard to give his family the opportunity to celebrate him by creating the illusion that he is enabling family recreation and relaxation for his benefit.

"To whatever degree he may have desacralized the world, the man who has made his choice in favor of a profane life never succeeds in completely doing away with religious behavior... even the most desacralized existence still preserves traces of a religious valorization of the world." -Mircea Eliade, The Sacred and the Profane
Want to know what it was like to create the universe? Gather your family around the dinner table tonight.
Nothin's gonna change if nothin's gonna change.
Cheers, my friends. As for me and my house, we will honor Laszlo. 

Americans are addicted to fear. Its gross.
Your home, your dinner table, constitutes the absolute center of the universe. It is the altar upon which sacrifices are laid and the world is created.
For those who have experienced Home, this is objective reality and absolute truth.

Saw a cybertruck in the wild today. They are as ugly in real life as they are on the screen. But, a little bit bigger.
I find myself sitting here at a Livestock Arena in NC where my 10 yo girl is about to show her prized chicken. #homeschooling takes you places you wouldn't expect.
I just want to manage 4 non-kyc lightning wallets on one device... but I don't want to run my own lightning node.
Any suggestions?

Let us cast off the old robes of cynicism and criticism that we wore with such flourish before bitcoiners.
Let us be heroic. For if bitcoin is what we say it is, we have no need for victimhood.
Let us be men of energy and action and enthusiasm and creators of a new world.
How quick we are to sacrifice our pleasure, how slow to sacrifice our pain.

Note: To the people in the back of the room who don't read, this is not an endorsement of MMT. I'd insert my Austrian bonafides here if I could.
------
Many Bitcoiners bash MMT as "nonsense", and thus lose arguments with statists before they even start. It would serve them well to understand the framing within which MMT is meant to be used.
MMT strictly limits itself in scope to money derived from monopoly violence. It is actually axiomatic in MMT that all money is derived from the barrel of a gun. MMT generally and chartalism specifically, asserts that the money must be ESTABLISHED by a state via force, and in order to do so, it must have something to ENFORCE. Thus the primary purpose for taxation under MMT isn't funding gov't programs, but rather to give the gov't a means to force and enforce the use of its fiat. Taxes exist to force us to use their money. This seems to be true. MMT is exceedingly accurate and descriptive with regard to money emitted by power centers with monopoly on legal violence. However, there is no room or intellectual tools within the MMT toolkit to analyze or predict the effects of a money that emerges independent of violence and coercion.
This is why when Ron Paul asked Ben Bernanke if gold was money, Ben responded "no".
MMT is totally unequipped for discussions related to bitcoin. When trying to orange pill an MMTer, you must first deal with their primary axiom.
It isn't that they believe that money CAN'T emerge organically. It is that they acknowledge (correctly) that OUR money HASN'T emerged organically and cannot persist organically.
So when talking to them, don't insult their theory. Don't quote Rothbard or Mises; it's a waste of time and you are casting pearls before swine. Acknowledge that MMT is useful for money that exists via force, but that you are working to build a world where money no longer requires force to persist.

Asymptotic #ossification MUST be the driving ethic or #Bitcoin can never be a universal money.
Bitcoin isn't a tech stock, it is a network protocol.
