I spent my first bit of Bitcoin today. I was stacking a little bit specifically so I could start spending and getting into the mindset of really living on a Bitcoin standard. I bought a jersey for my home MLS team after they beat LA in the Leagues Cup. Got to be at the game with my wife and in-laws. On one hand I was debating about wanting to spend the Bitcoin for the future gains, on the other it was a great memory. Feels good. Keep stacking.

Democracy as the highest ideal or good is idolatry.
Politics replacing religion/faith in the modern world is one of the greatest societal tragedies.
The One Piece is real.

I feel like I get value from #Instagram. I enjoy seeing what my friends and family are up to and see what they think is valuable. I enjoy posting a few times a year as like a "virtual holiday card". I enjoy how it's not ramblings that you get on #FB and #X. BUT, the fact that #Meta decided to add in #Reels to compete with #TicTok has ruined the app. It has become such a temptation to suck my attention for hours that the things I actually do enjoy the app for are such a small percentage of usage. I've deleted all other corporate social media accounts except Insta and I am very tempted to do the same for Insta but those reasons listed above keep me there and it sucks. The fact that companies will manipulate the mind in that way while hiding behind the genuinely valuable aspects of the platform really makes me think that the executives running them are evil.
Everything coming out now about the United States government being so militant towards its own people and it's own economic drivers makes me feel like we aren't that far off from a catastrophic uprising. The American Revolution was fought for much less as were other revolutions since.

The upfront costs of buying a house is insane. You think you're spending X but in reality you are probably paying 5-10k more.

These fees are making me feel like Ordinals and Runes are ruining the original value proposition for #bitcoin. How in the world is the Bitcoin community/nodes allowing this sort of BS and spam? Shouldn't we be rejecting this kind of shitcoinery?

If I didn't have so much taken out of my paycheck from taxes, I could easily afford for my wife to stay home on just my income as it stands now. But no, I have to continue funding wars, subsidize others crappy healthcare and politicians that don't care about me rather than take care of my family.

It should be fairly obvious to see who the genuine Christians are and who the partisan hacks are. Don't get caught up in the quarrels of this world

Trying to buy a house right now and it makes me realize how fucked the housing market is. Bidding wars on a very limited inventory, with rates north of 6.5%, all while wages haven't caught up with the inflation the housing market has seen. My in-laws are seeing many good, single family homes in their neighborhood get bought up by hedge funds to rent. How is this affordable for anyone? How is this sustainable? If there's a catalyst for a revolution, this housing crisis would not surprise me in the least. I don't even live in a traditionally expensive market either.
I never changed the time on my cats automatic feeder from "fall back". She's been living on permanent #DaylightSavings this whole time. Her life was not inconvenienced in anyway on Sunday. If she can do it, so can we.
I hope someday to own 1 Bitcoin, but I'm darn proud of owning more than .5. There isn't enough Bitcoin in the world for everyone to have that much and I have to remind myself constantly about what is "enough" for me and my family. I'm not trying to play the Wall St. games of who has the biggest wallet. Thankfulness in God's provision for my life goes a long way and takes the pressure off of having to have as much as possible.

The US is just an elected Monarchy. Congress is just an oligarch club with little interest of actually using their power.
Is the West currently the Republic or the Empire from Star Wars?

God instituted age limits on the Levitical Priests... 25-50... (Numbers 8:23-26). The US President 81, average age in the House of Representatives is 58, and the average age in the Senate is 64. USA retirement age is 66. Something is out of whack.

”Follow the pattern of the sound words that you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit entrusted to you.“
2 Timothy 1:13-14
”Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to quarrel about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers.“
2 Timothy 2:14
”But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness,“
2 Timothy 2:16
”Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.“
2 Timothy 2:23 ESV
Guard the truth, remind others of the truth, don’t stoop down to the level of those who don’t hold the truth and don’t engage in things that will only get in the way of the truth.
