It continues to amaze me how the words of a few unelected guys can move the entire market so drastically. #endthefed

Just thinking out loud here. The two income household is a trap. If there was a movement of families across the country where one parent stays home and the household severely cuts back to cover expenses, the whole economy would have to adjust to accommodate for this. Your spending speaks louder than any vote you can ever cast.

I'm really over the post election animosity that I'm seeing towards fellow citizens who don't agree with them. It really makes me sad, having family on both ends of the spectrum, seeing disdain and borderline hatred towards other human beings. In the end Jesus is king.

Only 21m people can own 1 BTC 28m can own .75 BTC 42m can own .5 BTC 84m can .25 BTC (Assuming all of it is distributed evenly, which of course it is not.) There are approx. 261m adults in the US alone. We’re so early. Stay humble, stack sats. #bitcoin #btc #satoshi #us

Democracy and freedom are idols. Seek first the kingdom of God and everything else will follow. #Jesus #Christian #Democracy #Freedom

This seems like almost the ideal for someone who would want to live on a #Bitcoin Standard. Sad it’s Euro only atm. Being able to spend from your wallet without first having to convert to fiat and all the converting happening in the background seems like the perfect situation! The fees aren’t ideal but otherwise, am I missing something? Wen @strike @jack mallers

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. #bitcoin #btc #memories #football #soccer #bitcoinstandard

Democracy as the highest ideal or good is idolatry.

Politics replacing religion/faith in the modern world is one of the greatest societal tragedies.

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. #politics #usa #government #lawless #bitcoin

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. #housing #money #economy

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? #halving #ordinals #fees

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. #taxes #usgov #usa #politics #war #healthcare

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 #politics #christianity
