KINDNESS IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT RESPONSE
“Kindness is invincible, but only when it’s sincere, with no hypocrisy or faking. For what can even the most malicious person do if you keep showing kindness and, if given the chance, you gently point out where they went wrong—right as they are trying to harm you?”
—MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 11.18.5.9a

Yeah this wouldn’t be for nostr 😉
Bitcoin has been around for 18 years and it still isn't money, but now almost all of it has been mined, bought up by the rich, and taken offline. Which means that it might never be money. The rich don't need to ever spend _any Bitcoin._ Ever. Never ever.
This is the thing people don't understand. Rich people collect assets, they don't sell them. If they had the need to sell assets to fund consumption, they would be poor, like us. They got rich by never needing to sell.
> Bad money drives out good.
> -- Gresham's Law
If 10k Bitcoin are owned by 10k people in equal amounts, then you can assume that they would eventually end up running out of _bad money_ and begin spending that _good money_ into the system. It might take a few months or years, but it wouldn't take longer than our lifetimes. And they would each need to sell some, so that would reduce the amount each of them held, which would total a considerable amount of sats coming back onto the market.
But if 1 person owns 10k Bitcoin, he doesn't need to ever sell a single satoshi. He can just lend out 1 Bitcoin and collect rents on that. He risks losing that Bitcoin, sure, but he still has the other 9999 to keep him happy and he can easily recuperate the loss by lending out another one. And he is still putting much fewer Bitcoin back on the market than the group of smaller holders collectively have.
That is why, once the wealthy control all of the wealth, it just stays there and monetary velocity grinds to a halt. They only need to move tiny amounts of assets, and they usually only move it to acquire more of it. Like the way whales will dump a bunch of Bitcoin on the market, all at once, wipe out traders, and then buy it back plus some more, at a cheaper price. Once you have so much of an asset, you can control the price.
And that is where we are now at.

Trump says he is going after corporations who buy homes.
Good, we should all support President Trump because corporations should of never been allowed to buy homes. If they didn't homes would cost like 20k or lower and mortgages wouldn't exist.
"As I said at my State of the Union Address on February 25th, the American Dream of Homeownership is under attack. For example, Rachel Wiggins, a mom of two, from Houston, placed bids on 20 homes, and lost all of those bids to gigantic Investment Firms that bypassed inspection, paid all cash, and turned those houses into rentals, stealing away her American Dream — She was devastated! Stories like this are why I signed an Executive Order to ban large Wall Street Investment Firms from buying up single-family homes. Also, in my speech, I called for Congress to save the American Dream of Homeownership, and ban these purchases, PERMANENTLY! Senators Bernie Moreno and Tim Scott have worked to ensure my call becomes a reality, and have a Bill which has passed the Senate with nearly 90 votes. I am asking Congress to pass that Bill, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, which would ensure that homes are for people, not Corporations. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

Being early is heavy.
I sell my paintings only for Bitcoin.
Not because I have absolute certainty, but because I can no longer ignore what I’ve seen.
Those who understand the importance of Bitcoin often don’t feel privileged: they feel out of time.
Understanding Bitcoin does not mean having arrived. It means having arrived early. And arriving early is uncomfortable: it makes you lonely, exposes you to doubt, and forces you to question rules many still believe are eternal.
Bitcoin is not a religion, nor a shortcut.
It is a hard tool that demands study, discipline, and responsibility.
The truth is this:
understanding Bitcoin does not make you special. It makes you responsible.
Responsible for continuing to study.
Responsible for not mythologizing it.
Responsible for accepting that you might also be wrong.
Perhaps the only real privilege is having sensed, before others, that the rules of the game were never immutable.
And once that suspicion is born, you can never return to feeling at ease as before.

"universal high income" is so fucking stupid it still makes me laugh lol
Sounds like you needed a pre-coffee coffee.
Love it! I collect (read: rescue from the thrift store) old needlepoint and string art pieces. This is nice work.

Ein Unternehmen, das seit 1918 am Markt ist meldet Insolvenz an.
Die Egelseer Traktoren GmbH hat den zweiten Weltkrieg und Adolf Hitler sowie viele wechselnde Regierungen überstanden.
Doch gegen den Grünwokesozialismus kommt das Unternehmen nicht an. Bekannt dürfte das Unternehmen vor allem dafür sein Ersatzteile für Schlüter Traktoren zu verkaufen.

So the plebs, who desire owning assets but are lucky if they own one by the time they die, who have to pay (interest) to borrow a share on someone else's asset to do so. So the cycle continues is what I'm hearing? We've learned nothing?

Cada um vai comprar pelo preço que merece 💥🚀.

Most civilizations collapsed, and the people in them died out or were sold into slavery. People lost the ability to read or to use the wheel. It happens quite quickly.
We progress toward Heaven, not toward Utopia.

Thanks! I should take it off soon, been wearing it a while. I do find it cute though.
And ew, lobsters are nobody's favorite animal. I don't believe you
Ok

Sweet. My biggest problem with the bible has always been the bastardization of translations.
It's all important but the red text is the only part I consider sacred. Everything else has always made me squint a little because nuance exists.
Hopium is alive and well.
why don't you just host your own stuff like your host your relay, or just use nostr build but it's not free
Being a dad is worth it.

I just happened to send a reply to someone else when I refreshed feed and lo and behold there you were :)
people are getting sick... and when sick they produce fragments that overlap from their sick cells
how they got sick is the real question and was it exposure to poor sanitation or a self replicating viral genome? (that's what i am asking)

lil shakespeare joke for you.

nostr says come back to nostr, I don't have a YouTube account so I can comment 😭
Gotta start the day with prose #nomorninghaikus
Just put it in my Amazon cart. I'll order it when my wife adds 3 things tonight.
Got an example of what makes the update so awesome?
Definitely could be fresher. And I miss my lederhosen. Nothing like the comfort of thick leather overalls.
I guess they're a cute animal from afar. Good choice, now that I think about it.
Morning.
I boiled my kettle.
Put the grounds in the French press.
Then waited 5 minutes.
To realize I never put the water in the press.
