Last Notes npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Nothing hits like licking a 9v npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Why would you say that out loud…..dude 🤫 npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Would zap if I could. Much love brother. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all If you lost anything it is critical that you KEEP THE COLD CARD. you may need it for evidence in court. Keep everything. Receipts. Records. Packaging. Whatever you can! npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Anyone else having really uncomfortable conversations with their wife this weekend? I’m beyond blessed that my setup appears to have dodged this attack, but I’ve never felt so exposed. I’m completely reassessing my set up and have been visibly stressed/distracted. I feel emotionally raw thinking of the people who have lost so much this week. I’m praying for each of you. My normally patient and trusting wife is starting to talk about “diversification” 🤢 and “maybe we should keep more in our savings account” 🤮. I am telling her that Bitcoin security will come out of this stronger than ever, but it’s also bringing to light some other things I’ve been putting off like estate planning. She didn’t seem pleased when I pointed out that our business is a far bigger liability for her if I die than the Bitcoin. I’m so lucky to have her and I am going to continue iterating on our security until it’s worthy of her. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Maybe the old kook was right all along? 🤷♂️ #nevent1q…6dc4 npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all We need to fund a private army of autists to review and rank all things related to Bitcoin security. This can never happen again. I too am too regarded but that doesn’t mean I’m without responsibility. I am working on being less dumb and will be actively looking for ways to assess security without leaning on trusted influencer types. The only option I can come up with is for all of us to pay for code review. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all What do you think about on-ramp? The multi-custodian model is looking pretty interesting. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I’ve been Nostr only for 2+ years. When this happened I ran my happy ass back over to X because I needed the best up to date information. GFY if you think I should sit in an ideological eco chamber when access to information is the difference between defending my life savings and loosing it all. I love Nostr, but fuck off with your Puritan shit. This is war. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all If you are the bastard that stole all the Bitcoin, your best option now is to return it all, turn yourself in to the police and beg for a light sentence. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Today reads like an advertisement for OnRamp Bitcoin and AnchorWatch. We are never ever going to get the masses into self custody unless the tools change completely. This cypherpunk shit is stressful. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all New Hampshire state moto: Live Free Or Die New York City moto: Live Free Off That Guy npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all No way bro! xRP is the global ledger. The banks want it rippling through their veins. It’s XRP4lyfe bro. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Sounds like you’ve got it covered. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all You should check out the book (audible has it for free) 100 Million Dollar Offers. It’s specifically about launching fitness brands. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all #catsr #nevent1q…gvlj npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://youtu.be/JEmI_FT4YHU #nevent1q…fvgf npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Is that what happened to Vitalik? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I’ve never heard of anyone having a spiritual awakening from studying Ethereum. There is no second best. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all @TheGuySwann big hat tip to Guy for this post last week. I read the whole thing aloud as part of this episode and it helped me crystallize the argument I’ve been trying to make. Thanks Guy! https://fountain.fm/episode/msmxZ9FT0Wz3bJUq6Vsa #nevent1q…s3wh npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all One of my favorite songs of all time. https://youtu.be/hpM8FjO4Vko npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all 🚨 final episode of our Bastiat series 🚨 Last week we finished reading the essay, The Law. This week I tie the ideas to what Satoshi created and what it means for your ability to defend your life, liberty and property. I also talk about the name of the show, Love & Hard Money and finally tie a bow on what those two divergent topics have in common. Enjoy! https://fountain.fm/episode/msmxZ9FT0Wz3bJUq6Vsa npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Beautiful tribute. Been there. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all With this one weird trick you can. 1. Insert egg 2. Lay egg 🥚 npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I need the straight UTXOoooooooo brother, ya know? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Yes but dumps to 38. Max pain. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all They get all the coolest stuff. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I spent the morning in a Catholic Church to support someone I care about. I pray I never step foot in another one again. I can be wrong about God all on my own. I don’t need a Priest to help me with that. I’ll keep looking for God outdoors in the church he built. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all This assumes we live in a free market npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Wofati. Havent seen that mentioned in a long time. I’m a fan of 3D printing for housing. Thoughts on that? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I would love to be able to bend that much. That’s why I have my kids in gymnastics. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all A number of things. I live near the water and may not always so now is a time to learn. My kids are old enough to do it with me. My wife said it was ok if I cleaned the garage. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all In that he’s dead now but people still talk about him? 🤣 npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I love the Cessna 208. Tico tail number too. One of my favorite places to hang out. I’m jealous of whatever you have planned! npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Anyone know what happened to that penguin? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Life is a fractal npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all That’s real npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I don’t have sons. I have daughters, but the below is categorically true because if your son doesn’t “master his impulses” around my daughters, your son isn’t going to make it to adulthood. #nevent1q…u9ac npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Pro tip. Boomers are getting too old to sail and they own all the boats. Show some interest and it’s almost free. I got this for $1500 including the trailer. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Oh this old girls no maiden. Taking her out on the lake before I brave salt water. I’m just learning to sail. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Any questions about my dinghy? It could have been Bitcoin, but instead I bought a sail boat. ⛵️ Don’t worry, it’s just a little guy. Asymptotic stacking goals still intact. https://blossom.primal.net/0f48b27201fab1d018eaa3eaa565f643c5c825d3ca691a8b9b1dedbb78d4b21a.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Lucky bird npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Pretty solid position actually. 🙌 npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Who do I punch in the fog of war? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Feels like a trap but I’m not sure who I trust. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Anyone one else feeling a weird connection between the bear market, the Clarity act, BIP110v Core, the suits forming a dev funding mechanism and all this treasury company drama? Feels like threads of the same story. Like the castle is about to be stormed. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I don’t want to do the math. Sounds hard. #nevent1q…4psm npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all That’s freaking cool. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? #nevent1q…qgwk npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Maybe this is why… #nevent1q…v9ye npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all No thank you #nevent1q…atxa npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Birds aren’t real. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all My podcast Love & Hard Money is on hold until I get my voice back. I’ve got the weirdest summer cold and sound like a 88 year old chain smoker. The series I just finished (reading Bastiat’s The Law) was kind of a drag if I’m being honest. Super important but a slog to get through. If you haven’t listened before and want to check it out, this one is a much more fun place to start. https://fountain.fm/episode/DVdFZBdRBgTZqrSSmUFa npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all To be fair, we steal from theocracies, democracies and monarchies too. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all That’s not nic cater. Also nic Carter is a turd. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Most of them are migratory but there’s at least one resident pod in the PNW that never leaves and lives exclusively on salmon. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all How did you publish to Nostr? I’m sitting on a manuscript I want to publish but don’t have the energy to do KDP or anything right now. Would love to just release it here. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Zaps don’t give me the same rush they used to. I gotta move on to harder stuff. https://blossom.primal.net/7bab54c8021ede04a35875a0f06b20ec2c233b60e021bdab9b6f5326a26b924b.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all When your neighboring Duke starts acting up and you gotta slap a hoe. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all This is what war looks like in the future under a Bitcoin standard. #nevent1q…dcvm npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I before e, except after c or when sounding like a as in neighbor or weigh. When two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking. Height says GFY npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I want to think slowly again. I want to wonder and wander. I want to ask and talk and then wonder again. I want to go find a book. Dewey Decimal. I want to read it and still not have my question answered. But right now, I just need the answer. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Two things I appreciate Saylor for. 1. His series with Breedlove back in 2020 was some of the best Bitcoin content of all time. 2. His first move of taking cash and buying Bitcoin instead of stock buy backs was beautiful. True first mover advantage. But then instead of staying humble and stacking sats with free cash flow he got all financial-engineery and that’s where he lost me. In short, I perpetually prefer not to. Am I a dick slobberer? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all The answer might be $2000 but that might only buy enough vodka to make you forget you could have bought bitcoin instead. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Best content anywhere npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Who’s going to be the first one to try to prove that inflation is fraud and therefore they owe zero taxes? https://blossom.primal.net/8bbcbdc65d65873510f3f2298a29864002fbe466e5845a22d949dfe90c3812c5.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://blossom.primal.net/babcfd6291736097bf7c7632c61ebb26149f124ea9060c9ef54fa4817f21aeb5.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all MYcro-economics. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Short and one of the best take downs of stocks I’ve ever read. 👏🏻 https://www.zerohedge.com/crypto/deflationary-money-hits-different-losing-half-its-price-and-winning-anyway npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I must be too far out on the spectrum to resonate with this vibe. I think hunk Bitcoin, Austrian Econ and anarchism are immensely interesting. I’m not into tech broadly but have developed an adjacent interest because of my other predilections. Also, none of my friends want to hang out anymore. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Who cares if they want it or not? They gunna get it. 🤣 ewww npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all AI is the apex product of a materialist world that mistakes intelligence for value. All action boils down to one thing: want. A tree wants nutrients so its roots go deeper. A man wants sex so he gets a job and fills a function in the economy to give him the tools to attract a mate. AI can simulate intelligence. If given the right prompts and tools it can even exterminate human life. But it doesn’t want anything. Want is the basis of consciousness. For that reason, AI will never become sentient. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0n0mISeD2OJiJo8qmZG6XC?si=uI-KZEWsSGCx4R_J9o9kkQ&utm_source=copy-link&t=1&pi=SIJi16ReTFaIk npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Can you smell it?

It was a harder read than I anticipated when I set out because of all the French names, long quotes and old English in the translation. I’m proud to have exposed a few of you to this excellent essay for the first time, but I’m also glad to put the project behind me. Next week we’ll talk about how Bastiat’s ideas show up in Bitcoin and why that matters. https://fountain.fm/episode/Xa1PB2JFF0AiDUxgIYnP npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I don’t know enough about the French Revolution. Probably need to do a deep dive sometime. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Thanks man. I agree with your point too. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I hate all of it. Let the free market do its thing. Regulate only crimes that have victims (which includes the commons). Then make participation in the protection of the law and court system subscription based. You don’t have to pay but then you’re on your own if you’re victimized (and still held to the same rules as everybody else). If people value the service and think the price is fair they will pay. If a better offer is made by a different jurisdiction they can move to where they’re treated best. Government as a service. Will likely never happen, but it’s worth working towards. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Different strokes for different folks…he is grinding to me. Talks fast and a little too self assured. I’m sure he’ll mellow a bit as life humbles him like it does all of us. He is clearly very smart and brings value to the space. I still listen to his interviews but always with a touch of annoyance. I’m sure some people feel the same about my way of communicating. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all This is the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://blossom.primal.net/bfe1e94c9939ca12e822b4e0687ba82891c6bcd18958d8c6082cb6ff06fd4144.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://blossom.primal.net/a906668c763a269b3ab735115fdcd2ab8625327f292d270b70959355eb338551.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://blossom.primal.net/f6efbf4d463a0d3477d850225a480a6f2dcb0a94ccf7127355d82504eba01a33.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://blossom.primal.net/d7e13d653e5891155a84a939e16d4e24765e59336fa611badd61269cc0d4b345.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Was happiness ever the goal? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all All I know is they had an office full of attorneys turning out patents. I asked them if they commercialized them and they said mostly no, they just watched for people to violate them and then sued them. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Fun fact. There’s a company in Bellevue WA called Intellectual Ventures. Mostly owned by Gates. It’s a patent troll shop. They have an office and a lab for experiments. Sometime around 2013 I got to tour the lab. They had little plexiglass cages of mosquitoes all over the place and lasers shooting at them from across the room. They told me it was a “smart laser that burns the wings off. Soon you’ll be able to have a parameter around a house that mosquitoes can’t penetrate.” Then there was a tall tower of mosquitoes in another part of the lab. I asked about that and they said they were experimenting with terminator genes. I said “like GMO mosquitoes?”. The reply “exactly!” I remember at the time thinking, this will be how they kill us. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I think it is a tragedy when anyone dies or is murdered. Which is why I think the loss of a war monger like Lindsey Graham might be, on balance, a net positive for the world. But I’m also not nieve enough to think the loss of one node changes anything about the network. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I disagree with this point for most people. We need dreamers and doers and builders but we also need garbage men and plumbers and uber drivers. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Yes. Now ask me how I feel about that… npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all https://blossom.primal.net/7b4b260a4f3efc973a4ede2800392f59b2706c783c9e1f62836a5157675b2752.jpg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all THE BLUE COLLAR DOLLAR! That’s the line we’ve been looking for to bring the next cohort into camp with us. Go forth and tell them the good word my brethren. #nevent1q…geqg npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Do you think it’s an emergent thing or an active decision made behind closed doors? Like does your average state senator know how things work and keep it this way to protect his class or does he vote the way he does because of other incentives? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all I have very little respect for rules. Does that make me an anarcho capitalist most of the time? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Run you idiot! 😆 npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all This is exactly how big things are revealed by a transparent government that serves the people it taxes. Trust the process. They work for you and they care a lot. npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Was that Art Bell? npub1yfy0upgc5s802gqn40vcvq4lkugs6h65f4pl2ml92ghxyu6c9ldsxq3tu8 bitcoin4all Man, Nostr people have to be the most polite respectful bunch of autist on the internet. A pretty woman just posted a picture of silicon titties and not one of you guys is using it as an opening to be a perv……bros. I’m proud of you guys. Let’s keep Nostr a safe place to talk about titties. #nevent1q…afpl
