As long as I skip @markusturm's posts (no easy task, cos they are so often nail/head), my nostr feed is my daily balm to the soul.

I know fuck all. And that's OK.

Next on the reading list. Why are there so few female geniuses (genii?!) who have influenced/shaped the world? And what personality traits does it take to be one?

"Neither a borrower nor a lender be."

Happy magna carta 2.0 day

Babies come in to the world with no preconceived ideas. They watch, listen, taste, feel and smell to 'conceive' their surroundings. Over time, they rely more and more on preconceived ideas to conceive what's going on, rather than relying on their senses. This is how it becomes so easy to fool humans in to believing something which is blatantly false. We stop using our senses. And rely on preconceived ideas. If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck.... P.S. Your government is not your friend. P.S. The money in the bank is not your money. P.S. You're not an expert in anything.

Lose your mind. Come to your senses. Life-changing. Back to the roots.

Bitcoin has led me down many fascinating and rewarding paths. I'm currently on the hardest path so far. To my self.

Beautiful time of day

If we believe that we can be 'the mother' to children under the age of three and simultaneously have a full time job, we are wrong. Babies and toddlers have no concept of 'quality time', even if we women have been persuaded to believe otherwise.

The most far-reaching decision you will ever make is the partner you select to have your children with. Parenthood. Till death do you part. Choose wisely.

I love people. We are awesome.

I would hate to work at something I don't take personal pride in. However much I'm paid. Because prideless work is soul destroying. I have never had to do any work in my life which I was not proud of. And that includes the many hours of babysitting, waitressing, hotel house-keeping and supermarket shelf-filling jobs of my youth. Because I've never had to spend my time and energy on a bullshit job. Eternally grateful for this.

We will see a glorious rise in real craftsmanship.
