Making my way through about the 5th proof copy and still, there will still be stuff in it, but keeping the AI use to the cover only. Chapter four is a tough one, too long, but when you get to a point where it is screaming out of a @Jeff Booth footnote, it can stay as it is.

“Perfection of character is this: to live each day as if it were your last, without frenzy, without apathy, without the pretence” verse 69 book 7, #meditations. Today is a good day to die, but also to live one’s best life. No my landscape today, but because of the mobility of my asset of choice, it could be. 🫡🙌

As I engage in my internal reflections in order to arrive at a point of great comfort and peace, I arrive on a point, a ray of light, a splinter under my finger nail. Has my conviction never been greater, or am I simply better at coping with the pain of price dumps? All a matter of perspective freaks.

Gm nostriches, happy Saturday freaks, loving @Luke Gromen with @nat brunell, doomer, yeah, but also a realist, “change your sails if the wind isn’t right!!!” White collar workers are in for a rough time. https://fountain.fm/episode/mcXIY3nfsVsG3tVAgSrg Bond markets appear to have cooled momentarily, but zoom out and this is all sorts of awful, governments literally have no money to cover interest payments and as unemployment 🚀 inflation will crush, “inflate away the debt” is the road to serfdom The overly bearish limit buy from last month would have been hit at £45k (fuck). A touch on an ultimately none helpful perspective; the bottom won’t be in, until you place a limit order that never fills. But also, don’t be the 2022 “I’m waiting until $10k”. After my work colleague chat, I take real comfort in the fact that unlike him, if everything goes to hell, I can actually pick up a bag with clean underwear (optional and my net worth in 5 minutes to get the hell out of dodge. Without bitcoin, he can’t. $60k, bottom or not, is an awesome place to get on or solidify your conviction. #coffeechain kinda morning.

Ge nostriches, eldest the touch touchy about being being sick, some may say ametaphobic (I just like fixing problems instead of naming them). We’re tasked with writing a story to help her therapy and actually had quite a bit of fun making some AI images as she was asking the model to make the vomit splash into someone’s face. Very good progress, awesome feeling supporting my companion grow

Ga nostriches, having a chat with a long standing work friend, commenting on the state of universities, moving through fire rehire onto private company contracts so they can get out of “teacher pensions” and reducing their contributions to the “good pensions” they were promised……. Me staying quiet as he’d just commented about tax being a good thing and me not offering any solutions (what burn it all to the ground isn’t enough?). Who will spend on infrastructure, I cough “servicing debt” Held back with this “oh, so the pension ponzi you mentioned months ago, so it’s not any good without masses of basically tax payer fundings? What and inflation that will take away debt, which is shit for the poorest is also good?” Fine with talking about religion, politics a little risky, but who thought tax and economics should be off the table in friendly chats.

Feeling giving where my mind, and my employer currently is, thought it might be time to #chooselife @Daniel Prince with a snap shot from January 2025!!!!

Ga nostriches, fun Thursday so far, watched a YouTube channel I haven’t seen for years and “the institutions holding the price down while they accumulate” came up, like meetings up with an old friend. Saved a little mouse from the jaws of near certain death (of a cat) on the way to school. Then a bit of a spin on the old velo, blowing away some cobwebs with the aim of getting a touch of perspective on everything that’s going on. Would love to place another cheeky limit order, but it’s just feeling like it will keep leaking a little longer #58kgang are in the process of doing their roaring kitty post!!!

“Dig inside yourself. Inside there is a spring of goodness ready to gush at any moment, if you keep digging.” #mediations book7 verse 59. Dig inside yourself freaks, everything helps us grow.

Gm nostriches, so, those limit orders that I thought were simply optimistic…… should I re-instate the £45k one?!?!? As is the way on a Thursday, up super early and #catstr has joined me while the #coffeechain seeps through the filter paper. Finished off #layeredmoney the other day, so back onto #bitcoinisvenice. While I may have been schooled on what social capital was by an eminent professor in 2009, then explored it myself, absolutely love your take on it as a base for a functioning society and economy, my own views were oh so “operations” in comparison!!! Looking out side and the weather is a little iffy, but maybe that could simple be the makings of some herodirt for when I’m out on #bikestr

Ga nostriches, I’ve moved beyond questioning the need to just tax the billionaires, (

and worry that everything that can be taxed in the UK will be taxed. It is neither grown breaking nor new, but getting as many people in the UK to at least 0.1 btc could be both a way out of poverty and hopefully bring the government to heal. View article →

Just sent a transaction in work, airgapped with the camera (🫡🙌 @BLUESKY ), improved privacy with Sparrow (cheers @craigraw). Sweet, slick, confirmed, easy, secure and peer to peer. Oh and while confirmation is taking a while, it may change but that difficulty adjustment could make mining super profitable in ten days!!!!!!!

The major question, was this the low.
