When I was 7, my best friend's dad gave me this advice:

"Think for yourself, question authority."

He was a hippy, obviously. I found out this was a Timothy Leary quote when I heard ir on a Tool song. My mom's from northern California and I'm pretty sure my step grandmother smokes weed because I once found a bong in her Mill Valley home.

My wife's uncle was in the Brotherhood of Eternal Love. He invested in collectibles. The problem with thinking for yourself and queationing authority arises when the money is nothing but authority. The hippies tuned in and turned on, but they didn't have a viable way to drop out.

#Bitcoin gives you the power to drop out/opt out.

Not sure if it came from timothy leary originally, but in tool’s album recording for third eye it is actually bill hicks talking

Either way, great quote. Was just thinking of it earlier bc with ai we are suddenly much worse off in both “think for yourself” and “question authority” overall

Yes! Great song and great quote.

I lost all my b-cash after the fork. I accidently sent it to a bitcoin core address.

Luckily, a whole b-cash coin is only worth 0.0049% of a whole bitcoin.
