Gotta buy food and socks...
Foot comfort intermediate layer while wearing work boots.
I do. I always will.
The way to fuck the system is to realize that the stuff you pay attention defines your world.
You're what you pay attention to, your world is what you care about, your humanity is who is around you. Minimalism can help as long as you don't underestimate the role of happiness in life: nothing is worth doing just for the sake of it. Fucking the system is not of any use per-se, I prefer to explore the world and then, eventually, understand that my happiness incidentally intersects the "fucking of the system".
Go right ahead. I'd watch it. 😁
Only when really desperate.
Also is an easy way to unfuck yourself. 😂
Isn’t as impactful if the masses don’t do the same…
This is the way of the goats.
thankfully, the two things presented here are not mutually exclusive.
Not buying crap hurts the system.
Buying bitcoin hurts the system.
the logical conclusion is to use money that would be spent on crap on bitcoin instead; 2 birds with one stone.
Easiest way to stack sats too
Darwinism will get a lot of em
I’m not concerned
pretty sure the system found a way to fix that too so they get a cut
Natural selection at its finest 👌
I PUT FOOD ON MY FAMILY
They’re the ones that don’t want kids 🤷🏻♀️
Stop buying shit, and stack sats instead.
Food fights are fun, true
But then you’d buy cleaning supplies…
Dilemmas
One mans spending is another mans income.
Less about not spending, than it is spending with intention
Buy food locally and buy socks sparingly. #minimalize
I feel a little like a hypocrite for sharing this. The problem is that I do agree with it on the principal level, but I also like to buy shit...

There is a fine line between a need and a want. Make sure you know the difference. 
That's the goal, for sure.
And when the fat control the marketplaces, the fat only gets fatter
I prefer my focus on time, moments spent, with loved ones, instead of spend on intent.
That would only work if the masses all at once decide to stop buying "shit"
Unfortunately the masses keep buying cheap "shit"
Which in end up does not fuck the system.
It's fucks the savers while those who buy "shit" live in luxury as long as they live in debt.
Bitcoin fixes all this. Keep saving in Bitcoin.
Only Bitcoin will fuck the system.
Samurai, soldier, you should know better
Didn’t you watch Forest Gump?
I like the lil symbol at the bottom 👌👍
This is spot on.
Small, local & quality… and only when it meaningfully enhanced life
Julius always gave us a lesson, but many people didn’t take it seriously. 😅
Yes. Thought about getting tickets to BTC Conference 2025. Decided I’ll just spend that money on buying more BTC
What’s the quote?
kinda...
its true, I can't control what others do but I can voluntarily leave and join with other like minded people.
help create ways to exist in parallel economies and most of all be happy.
Reading toxic threads on x and being mad all day isn't freedom
Make a point of reading Altlas Shrugged if you haven't.
cheers!

go to meetups!

I don't know what you're referring to.
It's been a very long time since I've watched it.
i couldn't finish that book... i enjoyed a few chapters of Fountainhead way more than the first 200 pages of Atlas
but i mean, she's on point, the way she characterised the socialist drones and their endless gossip and retardation, so perfectly accurate
was the holy roller mainstream of the 50s to 90s and then flipped to be the socialists of the period since then, same mentality, same literal people, went from all stiff suits and shit to commie jar hats and bags covered in badges and shitty graffitos of sickle and hammers and veganism
the flip was jarring for most people, i'm sure, but i think their time in the sun is about to end in a slide into the abyss, with lots of ugly self destruction
A fellow prepper and hunter friend of mine has a good saying: “Gear begets gear.”
Think you just need an ATV? Do you have a trailer? Tools? 12V air compressor? Tow sling and clevises? Jerry cans? Spare parts? Helmet? Rifle rack? It goes on and on. Same thing for camping.
“If you don’t buy, the discount is higher.”
some things are worth buying
That's the definitive way of being part of the system. The system wants you to buy less "shit", because working and having the minimun places you nearest of a slave. The entire 2030 agenda is about that.
Freedom is choice
Choose your system wisely
fair enough
🤝
Say it louder for the people in the back!! I wish so much crap was never bought in my 20s, trying to get rid of it now is a nightmare. Future me would tell past me just don't!

Buy good wool socks, hubs has had a couple pair 10 years or more. Darn Tough is what we buy, pricey but they have a warantee if you wear a hole in them.
Grow more things than you buy
Tried it once. Got me 6 weeks in jail 😟
💯
Stop buying shit WITH THEIR MONEY … only buy with BTC
circular economy is the the easiest way to fuck the system
First i need to sell those shit i have been collected 😄
We don't need it. We can't afford it.

I would turn the knob just a bit further and consuming and using stuff from the better systems. The goal is not to have nothing but to have better things (systems)
Minimalism is the ultimate act of rebellion against the materialist machine.
This.
That which you can do without, you own.

Change the system.
That is the best way to fuck it.
and stack sats ✌️
That’s not what I thought he was saying…
So what to do if I feel lonely. Just sitting at home isn’t working in changing that feeling
All my hiking socks are DT. I do need some more to replace my now in places threadbare work socks. I just can't afford to buy 10 pairs all at once.
never bought shit. never had to be convinced otherwise
One of my favorite books is on this very topic (minimalism). Read it 3 times thus far.
No. You have to reduce the use of slave money.
Dry socks are very important, but the more socks you have doesn't guarantee dry socks. These are the only socks you need to own, I only have three pairs. 
kn0w wat hard assets ar & minimalism.
any paper ba$ed shit is not an a$$et bc0z it says so.
$bitcoin is an asset bc0z - backed by electricity & maths.
computer is an asset bc0z - backed by hardware & s0ftware, if U really 0wn the s0urcec0de not cl0ud c0mpute.
H2, Hydr0carb0ns ar assets bc0z they provide l0gistics & so on.
Great. Now I want all those things.
And if you need to buy something do it with bitcoin and do it with someone you met on vexl
This is the red pill! 💊
That’s what I’ve been saying to everyone around me. Art of reduction
how's that?
Yea, and don’t give anything away from free, that’ll really get you in trouble 😂
👋
Even better than minimalism just buying stuff that lasts for life :)
And saving in bitcoin coz then you want less stuff and more btc
It needs another small step.
Buy more from small and local businesses.
Buying less but only spending with big chains won’t actually change much.
But supporting small local businesses will put the soul back into communities.
Vote for the world you want with your money and your attention.
It took me such a long time to stop buying (into) useless shit. Quite hard in the beginning.
The older I get, the more I make, the less I buy. Feels great.
If you're not willing to buy something with Bitcoin, do you really need it?
I have to build parallel circular economies with no third party outside of tyrannical control.
Minimalism is a good start but it isn't enough, we gotta fight.
Heh, exactly the same for me. It's at the point where just knowing I *could* buy something is almost as good as actually buying it. 😏
Buy sats, not plastic
I have children
Stop now I want to buy these 😂
Exactly
Teach them how to fuck the system too.
This is the way
The modern Radical:
Doesn't buy useless shit.
Chooses NOT to be miserable.
Never been a better time to be a radical.
True statement.
Shit... i'm doing well, im the kind of guy who would own only 1 fork, 1 spoon, 1 knife & 1 pan

Sounds like a free radical to me 😂
The government hates savers... its why the US implemented 6102
Minimalism = less fiat crap and more room to stack sats
We like it!
WE DO hold the buying power but we DONT share the allocations or the ownership power so 🤷🏻♀️
Exactly.
Producing more than consuming is the key :)
So true yet so hard for many
I can't live without air-conditioning and running water 😐

I moved states with my ex-wife and thought I'd be settled there for a while. She ended up cheating so I moved back home and after lugging around 600+ vinyl records and other stuff up and then back only 9 months later, I opted to minimalize my life. I've made a good amount of money selling things off and my load is much lighter, feels great!

I don't think I can wear those...
Bitcoin helped me understand this very clearly.
The elastic band in the center makes your foot feel like it has been taped. I love this. The toes aren't for everyone but I need it for Japanese moisture and have to wear flip-flop style slippers.
Well, cool, but, how long do they take to put on?
For my feet about a second longer than normal socks, my pinky toe usually gets jammed up. That time is maybe up by how fast the socks can dry. If you are a runner, hiking or live in a very humid place I would recommend these socks.
I am not sure my toes would fit. 😅
My main problem in Japan is they sell sock sizes up to 28cm but I wear a size 30cm so I usually get holes in my socks very fast. Fortunately they sell this sock in size 30cm so the length is okay and I don't get holes as fast but it is a tight fitting sock.
Very true
