I know what It's like to be physically willing and able and even ambitious enough to work, but its not enough. Powerlessness is seeking to grow financially and spiritually but no matter how well you do in your local economy it's never enough to save. Even if you could save, the banks are corrupt and offer no interest in your deposits and there is not much that you can lucratively invest in.

Should bitcoin standard become the way of the global economy, it will be crazy to finally witness a society where no expects a bail out or savior. Nice post

The world has never been more connected—yet, it’s never been quieter. Small talk is fading. Conversations are shrinking into social media posts. Airports, waiting rooms, and cafés once filled with chatter now resemble libraries. True connection goes beyond the digital—it’s built in everyday moments, through casual conversations that spark real relationships. I’ve seen what happens when distractions disappear. During Army Reserve training, without internet, small talk thrives, and real bonds form. Maybe it’s time we reclaim that. Put down the phone. Look up. Say something. What do you think?

My brother and I got into a heated debate today. He was wondering why I would vote for Trump. I wish I had an answer that was all encompassing but i didn't have one. No one candidate could fix all the issues in the world and that's not the point.
