I watched the Jimmy Carr podcast with Triggernometry.
Comedians are often highly intelligent and wrap up controversial views in humour.
Of all the things discussed, I've been thinking of one thing in particular.
The current generation has abandoned drinking for completely valid health reasons, however in the last decade mental health issues have become a major issue.
As an older generation, I didn't drink heavily in my youth, but I did go the the pub several times a week and I still do socialise quite a bit around pubs and restaurants.
Jimmy made a good point. We sacrificed our livers, but we created a strong life long social network (I mean social network in its original physical sense).
The younger generation have improved their physical health, perhaps at the expense of their mental health.
Pubs are social places, there is no modern equivalent.

In soft whispers of the night, their presence is known,
A gentle purr, a twinkle in their eyes, alone,
Cats dance with shadows, cloaked in mystery and grace,
Creatures of curiosity, with tender, silent grace.
Silhouettes that prance through moonlit gardens, unseen,
Majestic hunters, masters of the serene,
With a flick of their tails and a knowing nod,
They weave a web of enchantment, leaving us awed.
Paws pitter-patter on cold rooftops, soft fur stroked,
In quiet moments between dawn and dusk, they're woke,
Watching over us with their watchful gaze,
Their secret language whispered in the night air's haze.
Softly meowing, their gentle voices call,
Seeking companionship, a warm lap to enthrall,
In the stillness of our world, they bring delight,
With their feline magic and their hypnotic might.
Oh, the wonders of these creatures, enigmatic and free,
Cats, the silent poets of the night, the mystery,
Lost in the rhythm of their feline hearts, we find peace,
In the quiet solace of their gentle, loving beast.
It is good practise, and often automatic in most wallets, to never use the same receiving address twice.
In the future, Quantum "good practice" with be matching your spending with the appropriate UTXO size.
i.e. if you're spending 100K Sats, use a 150K Sat UTXO, not a 1M Sat UTXO.
This is already good practise, but will become more important and probably automatic for most wallets going forward.

Somebody I follow on X, because of an Isle of Wight connection, is currently cruising on the ship we will be joining on Sunday.
Because of this, I am engaging and reposting his tweets.
He has his sights set higher, however, as he tags Cunard on all his posts and does not respond to me, his only, highly positive, but low profile engagement ๐
