Harari is a spokesperson for the Party.
He's packaged up and presented to us as intelligent, and people believe they themselves are intelligent if they adopt his ideas.
Bruh populate an alignment grid like this for patriarchs...
Yes, she's the prize.
Her worth determines the nature of the competition.
Her worth isn't determined in economic terms but neither is it intrinsic on account of being a female.
What she curates as her worth will determine what kind of men she attracts and therefore what kind of courtship challenge she gets to set..
It's hard to envisage this until you meet such a woman and they are really few and far between today.
I am abundantly blessed.
"A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life."
Proverbs 31
'An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones".
Proverbs 12
"House and wealth are inherited from fathers, but a prudent wife is from the LORD".
Proverbs 19
Bisq user here, no active involvement with the project apart from occasional market maker trades.
Interested in where you are coming from with that endorsement for Haveno at the expense of Bisq?
First, the endorsement for Haveno. I could understand a general framing around privacy, involving a fork that focuses on XMR and BTC, (Haveno being XMR-First, whereas Bisq is perhaps XMR-Second), but credibility goes down the drain with ETH, BCH, and LTC being described as "interesting and useful". This isn't 2016-2018 Blockchain Euphoria Season.
A few comments on the FAQ's critique of @Bisq
1. Sending bitcoin direct from a bisq account to a coinbase account (or equivalent) is first rate stupidity... does any one really go to all that trouble for NKYC, only to hop directly to KYC?
2. Yes, the BSQ token is an integral opportunity for users to save on fees, and those savvy enough will avoid the token and just do maker trades instead. However, if there is a "a huge privacy concern" that makes it "possible to link", then has this been done or is it just conjecture because a token is being used?
3. With the security patch, which seems to be the only realy concern about the project, did an actual attacker exploit the vulnerability? If the problem has been patched quickly and nothing significant discovered since 2021, that all sounds like good practice rather than compromise.
There's always room for innovation, for example robosats has done away with the dao and relies on lightning, and haveno will have it's own niche too, but it's been a work in progress for ages... and the pitch of 'Bisq is so bad but we still like ETH/BCH' isn't congruent.
To be honest, this resonates with my season as a young widower years back.
Nothing prepares you for that feeling of heaviness, weighing you down as you move from mourning the loss of someone you love, to raging over the fact they had to suffer, to pitying the patheticness of your own tragedy and how badly you're coping with it, to connecting with the pain of universal suffering, to questioning God... and then finally the waters settle into acceptance, tranquility, and a sense of new hope and optimism.
I guess that would be reflected by flowers starting to grow out from between the stones.
Confession time.
My profile pic was taken from https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ way back... and I added the laser eyes (till fiat dies).
I get digs from the so-called oppressed about my alleged white privilege, based solely on their reaction to the image and their assumptions about my command of English.
Meanwhile I laugh in Palestinian at their virtue signalling ignorance.

1. The progressives arrived to school us and brought their bots to monitor us so we stay in line.
2. The state created a chill effect by going after bitcoiners (who may or may not have breached some regulation), and doing it in a cluster to give credence to a narrative... basically 'get your bitcoin from BlackRock not from each other'.
3. The halving was hyped up to ridiculous levels, giving noobs a feeling of euphoria and immanent moon, only to hit an anticlimax in discovering that the real price action comes next year (first time meme.jpg)
4. The protocol and tools are changing rapidly, not yet settled, and there's too many options and combinations right now, mostly half baked and buggy with health warnings attached, so it's taking a while to figure what all this is good for... one person's amazing use case is another person's waste of time.
5. Custodial or non-custodial and risk of rugging put a dampener on the joy of zap.
6. Changes in how relays do their relaying, and the need to pay monthly for anything half decent that isn't fediverse level spam, means the content of your feed is harder to predict. No algorithm but also little control or predictability unless you hunt for stuff and change up your client and relay combos.
7. Impatience about wanting to monetize effort invested here, since the early promise was earning megasats for memes, comments, and takes.
8. Pura Vida, Good Morning, Good Vibes, Biblestr, Coffee Chain, Pleb Chain and Nostrich love all displaced by 'GFY'... we came to find our tribe but now there's division based on tribal markers, and you're guilty of something if you're not in the right tribe.
9. People thinking this is social media.
That's for starters 💜

The whole passage is an eye-opener to be honest!
A downward spiral in which the people surrendered their assets and their liberties in order to be kept alive. I wonder if Joseph overstepped his remit here, in that he was appointed to prepare a nation to face famine, but then started wheeling and dealing with his surplus stock in order to enslave... the very people he was appointed to help. The next book, Exodus, begins with a telling phrase "there arose a new Pharoah to whom 'Joseph' meant nothing"... and guess what, the tables turned and this Pharoah moved to enslave the Hebrews instead. Uno Reverse. Yes there's a whole redemption drama that follows, but I hadn't appreciated that Joseph's over-reach was the root of the problem, not just a mean ol' Pharoah loving to whip the slaves.
Here's the passage, Genesis 47:13-26.
"There was no food, however, in the whole region because the famine was severe; both Egypt and Canaan wasted away because of the famine. Joseph collected all the money that was to be found in Egypt and Canaan in payment for the grain they were buying, and he brought it to Pharaoh’s palace. When the money of the people of Egypt and Canaan was gone, all Egypt came to Joseph and said, “Give us food. Why should we die before your eyes? Our money is all gone.”
“Then bring your livestock,” said Joseph. “I will *sell you food in exchange for your livestock*, since your money is gone.” So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and he gave them food in exchange for their horses, their sheep and goats, their cattle and donkeys. And he brought them through that year with food in exchange for all their livestock.
When that year was over, they came to him the following year and said, “We cannot hide from our lord the fact that since our money is gone and our livestock belongs to you, there is nothing left for our lord except our bodies and our land. Why should we perish before your eyes—we and our land as well? Buy us and our land in exchange for food, and we with our land will be in bondage to Pharaoh. Give us seed so that we may live and not die, and that the land may not become desolate.”
So Joseph bought all the land in Egypt for Pharaoh. The Egyptians, one and all, sold their fields, because the famine was too severe for them. The land became Pharaoh’s, and *Joseph reduced the people to servitude, from one end of Egypt to the other*. However, he did not buy the land of the priests, because they received a regular allotment from Pharaoh and had food enough from the allotment Pharaoh gave them. That is why they did not sell their land.
Joseph said to the people, “Now that I have *bought you and your land* today for Pharaoh, here is seed for you so you can plant the ground. But when the crop comes in, give a fifth of it to Pharaoh. The other four-fifths you may keep as seed for the fields and as food for yourselves and your households and your children.”
“You have saved our lives,” they said. “May we find favor in the eyes of our lord; we will be in bondage to Pharaoh.”
So Joseph established it as a law concerning land in Egypt—still in force today—that *a fifth of the produce belongs to Pharaoh*. It was only the land of the priests that did not become Pharaoh’s.
Just because he buys a lot of bitcoin it doesn't mean his opinion is worth listening too.
Same for all of us, thought that's a hard pill to swallow for sure.

Need a lightning address for general use.
If I subscribe to mutiny plus and get an address, does it still work if I stop paying subs the following month? Or is it 16,000 sats a month to rent the address?

Have you solved the 'play protect certification' issue on your now degoogled device?
Nanny play store won't let me touch a couple of apps, because they're "not compatible with your device", which apparently means they need assurance that the device is play protect certified. There's a workaround and a toggle setting but I can't find specifics.
Please help... sats for a working solution that doesn't involve "go use aurora".
Thanks 🙏
Patience is a virtue.
The funds reverted back to Alby and the balance updated, but not until I'd had six hours wondering WTF?
None the wiser about what actually happened, so I'll be reckless and try again.
Distracts me from the coordinated 'arresting of bitcoiners' psyop in progress... this is the technology that's going to save us all, right?
RIGHT?
What if your note included 12 words embedded in a longer meaningful note, whose primary meaning had nothing to do with bitcoin?
What if that note was constructed by a large language model?
So many possibilities
When businesses proactively enforce regulations on behalf of the state, instead of leaving it to the state to enforce its own bloated regulations, we have fascism.
Sad to see coin corner capitulate so easily, all that Isle of Man exemption flex was just fluff.
