What's funny is that one job I applied to has been unfilled in my hospital for about six months. I could have already been in the job and probably well caught up on the missing items by now. Makes no fucking sense outside a large bureaucracy. But they also haven't denied me. They've just left it all in limbo.

I'm kind of sick of hearing industry complain about the lack of skilled labor while they refuse to build and retain those people. I've experienced this personally at a company I already work for. Like I am willing to grow and fill in skill gaps. I can fucking read. I can study the specific literature, technical manuals, and research.
They want people with a ton of specific experience at a low pay. I don't believe we have a shortage of people wanting these jobs. We have a shortage of true leaders and educators in industry.

I frequently see people use the American Revolution as a justification for political violence. What I think they miss is that the ultimate goal of the war was 1: create a better system (not just destroy shit to land in a worse place) and 2: end up with a system that makes it much easier to live more freely and initiate change without shooting people.
Yes, they shot people, but I think with the goal of not having to again. I don't think they wanted rule by force, even if they were using force to get there (I view oppressive/offensive and defensive force differently, but that's a different conversation).
Obviously (I have notes complaining ad nauseam, so I won't engage with whataboutisms), we didn't end up with a perfect replacement and will always have work to do. But I think we have it pretty good compared to everywhere else and what we had in the past. I can afford to go anywhere in the world, yet I stay.

My Yeti bottle lid doesn't give much to hold onto when taking it off the bottle to refill. The gasket also makes it even harder to get off. I discovered that if I tighten the lid a bit, it's much easier to remove. Probably half or less effort.

That's why I generally consider a Bitcoiner to be someone who uses Bitcoin for one or more of it's virtues or would if they could (meaning they philosophically agree but just can't for some reason). Landing on any single specific requirement is arbitrary.
A miner might add mining to the requirement. Is anyone not mining a less than? I don't think so.
Having these stringent requirements for an arbitrary definition is exclusionary of beginners and adds nothing of substance. It's just shame based bullshit.

While I don't consider deeds to be my purpose in life (meaning I don't go looking for chances to do them constantly), I learned how to do them best for me pretty early on. I call this "score keeping." I don't loan friends anything. I'll give them a gift, but never a loan. I'll just say no if I can't give something as a gift, or give only what I can live without having returned.
I've known score keepers and I didn't keep them around long. It's an obnoxious way to live. On the other hand, it is important to realize when a relationship is demanding far too much as a trend. Some people just take.

I try to expose myself to a very limited amount of material from my biggest philosophical enemies (the most popular and effective ones), but it's harder than ever to find opponents I even respect. Think of someone like Christopher Hitchens.

I don't think it's realistic to hinge ownership on never being able to legally lose a thing or face some legal use issue. But I limit that to property rights issues handled by civil courts. Criminal only for things that are directly meant to harm others. Say dumping some toxic material in a water way knowing it'll pass down to your land. Easements, water ways, all issues that have to be addressed.
But yeah, the other stuff is bullshit unless it does the aforementioned somehow.

Yeah this was somewhat facetious because I happen to be looking for some land and real estate is mostly just showing what's broken in other areas anyway. Pretty different from an emerging money is a list of ways. But I agree, land and community are a big goal for me. Money is and end to one of my many goals in the real world. I don't see the point in sats for their own sake.

I'm okay with this as long as there is no longer an Israel. It should become a US territory under total American control (US flag at the top of all poles), under our Constitution and structure. No mergers. No working together. No Israeli state. No Israeli military or government.
Otherwise, go fuck yourself and have fun on your own. I'm sick of this kind of bullshit.

Some. But I don't live under a democracy either. You've probably seen a lot of my complaints. Our constitutional republic in the US is far from perfect.
But in general, I'm not delusional enough to think I don't have it pretty good relative to most of human history. I don't know of a better alternative. Anarchy is a joke. The admin state IS awful, and that's really where a lot of the problems stem from. It's less the fault of the constitutional republic and more the fault of us handing it over to administrators. Again, US perspective.

I'm not saying it doesn't. I just dont control what people sell goods for and I can't buy everything I need in SATs yet. It's a purity test with little merit, in my opinion. Especially if you're just dumping fiat onto the people who want it. Doesn't hurt me.
Besides, in terms of a treasury company, the entire concept is kind of outside the realm of relevance. We just aren't the same and that's cool. They are fiat entities as far as I'm concerned. Not all bad, not all good. They just are. I don't normally give a fuck what they do. I just take issue with the arrogance that they somehow made Bitcoin what it is by doing what people were doing for years before they got here. Fuckem.
I'm with you in principle though. I always preference those who accept sats directly
