This is why bitcoiners eat steak: it’s real, and so it’s healthy. As nostr:npub1gdu7w6l6w65qhrdeaf6eyywepwe7v7ezqtugsrxy7hl7ypjsvxksd76nak says, “Only meat makes you full enough to not desire fiat food.” Steak roots you in the Real—our reality and that of our ancestors. It’s the ultimate low-time-preference act, a pure expression of humanity.
This is the irony of Cypher’s scene in The Matrix: he’ll return to the simulacrum as long as he can enjoy steak. He accepts the fake world, the Matrix, because it offers a taste of the ultimate reality—something the hollow, desolate human world of his time no longer provides.
By comparison we’re pretty lucky we can escape the proverbial matrix by just watching a few videos, reading some great Bitcoin books, and still make real steak for dinner. Bon appetit frens
