I’ve found that stepping away from X and mainstream news is a massive boost for my energy and happiness. It feels like every headline is engineered to spark a political reaction or manipulate our emotions. Instead of getting caught up in the outrage of the day—wherever it's coming from—I’m focusing on getting my own shit together. There’s so much more value in improving our immediate circles than in pouring energy into distant stories we can’t control.

How nostr feels like
Never had a Twitter, X, or Facebook account. If it weren't for Bitcoin, probably wouldn't have a Nostr account either. I here to learn about the corn not politics not religion not health. Bitcoin only the rest is blah blah blah.
Have a good day.
Its even happening here.

The human mind doesn’t agglomerate in data centers. It is localized and dispersed in billions of minds around the globe. The new AI and machine learning movement is only the latest force to deny this reality." — George Gilder
