Bitcoin doesn't need more people and nostr doesn't need more users. The ones who get it come by themselves when they are ready. Both are great filters for individuals who value freedom and whatnot. They will come tho, so welcome them with fire and memes. 🐸

If you get your feelings hurt you haven't been beaten up enough. Don't be a malaka.

MAT 11.8 But what went ye out for to see ? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.

The word for "soft" in Greek...

(g3120) μαλακος, — mal-ak-os'; of uncertain affinative.; soft, i.e. fine (clothing); figurative a catamite: — effeminate, soft. Transliterated: malakos;

Pronounced: mal-ak-os' of uncertain affinity; adj Trans & freq in the AV

- soft 3 times, effeminate 1 time; 4 occurrences of Greek word in AV 1. soft, soft to the touch 2. metaph. in a bad sense a. effeminate

1. of a catamite

2. of a boy kept for homosexual relations with a man

3. of a male who submits his body to unnatural lewdness

4. of a male prostitute

Seems pretty clear that soft men make for hard times.

I'm familiar with "Malaka", I'm a tiny bit Greek you know. 😅😅

I had heard the term was back to my childhood. I had friends who were Greek.

I love, though when I see the text of the original New Testament and the words are very clear.

What's even more interesting is the translation from Greek to English is consistent. So when I see soft I know it's referring to malaka...

Also "Heavens" is Ooranos - Uranus lots of heavy deep language.

MAT 3.16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

(g3772) ουρανος, — oo-ran-os'; perhaps from the same as (3735) (ορος) (through the idea of elevation); the sky; by extension heaven (as the abode of God); by implication happiness, power, eternity; specially the Gospel (Christianity): — air, heaven ([ly]), sky.

Transliterated: ouranos; Pronounced: oo-ran-os'

perhaps from the same as 3735 (through the idea of elevation); the sky; TDNT 5:497; n m Trans & freq in the AV- heaven 268 times, air 10 times, sky 5 times, heavenly 1537; 284 occurrences of Greek word in AV

1. the vaulted expanse of the sky with all things visible in it

a. the universe, the world

b. the aerial heavens or sky, the region where the clouds and the tempests gather, and where thunder and lightning are produced

c. the sidereal or starry heavens

2. the region above the sidereal heavens, the seat of order of things eternal and consummately perfect where God dwells and other heavenly beings

from my grounding in southern slavic languages i understand imediately this is a negative expression, "mala" means small, and cognate to it is malicious meaning evil... oh and "ka" at the end of a word makes it feminine... the southern slavic tongues are very latinic but have a deep connection to the greek, both in the script devised by the students of Kiril and Metodiy and many of the common constructions in short, their latinic component was overlaid after the original bulgarian and then the greek was on top of that and then the latin after that, this is why the modern forms have a heavy latinic influence but the grammars are not, in the west it's based on the germanic syntax and in the east it's the archaic bulgarian and it should be notid that the most ancient form of writing thus far discovered was in Bulgaria, the Vinca artifacts
