Yes.

If you can time it, the downswings and inventory firesales can help balance out the shrinkflation and eye-watering markups.

In Weimar, you create the stability between the two extremes and hope you can remain solvent long enough.

Just need to give my pension fund some bitcoin exposure... as I'm not allowed to touch that either for my own protection, and all the permissible index funds are lame bond, property, cash, or worse... again for my own protection.

My actual pension is my bitcoin stash but there's 25 years of sunk costs from both myself and my employer tied up in the pension fund and it makes me so angry to think how the government will snaffle it up before I get to convert it into annuities.

Came back from holiday to a quiet house. Wife goes into bedroom and spots giant spider just resting on carpet between her and the bed.

She screams and I come running with a cup to trap and release. Missed the first time and it runs under the bed. Now she won't sleep knowing the monster is lurking there waiting for her to sleep so it can come out and terrorise her.

The next hour involves dismantling the bed, tracking the spider down, and annihilating it with sufficient evidence to talk my wife back into the bedroom, but not so much evidence as to activate her humane instinct and make me out to be the monster šŸ’€

Who can relate?

Bipolar clown world.

One day they classify all the normal stuff I do as criminal and create chill effect as they bluff being able to follow through.

Next day they pivot and support all the normal stuff I do with greater political zeal than ever as they bluff being able to follow through.

A few poor souls get caught in the blast radius each time, whether made example of for chill effect or scammed by state being helpful then helping itself.

All noise no signal.

Body needs good level of Vitamin C to help with absorbing.

Calcium can inhibit so space that out, also eggs, and tea.

Can use liquid iron supplements instead of pills.

Alternative day dosing is also a thing.

On related note, magnesium can take the edge off tiredness, which helps with energy and wellbeing during the day leading to better sleep at night, and sleep makes everything better.

Simple covenant theology.

The new covenant is the means by which God gets all the things done through Jesus.

On the doggie dynamic: well played. Today's concession becomes tomorrow's expectation and next week's routine. We have a poodle cross who always holds out for a better option. As if mind games with the teenagers wasn't enough šŸ™„

On the wife dynamic: took me a couple of years to understand that when my wife comments like that (don't be so hard on the poor soul etc) it was more about her staying in role as the nurturing home maker who has the privilege of delegating discipline to me... and not a challenge to my authority or direction in that moment. The right response for me was to acknowledge that and then remain consistent, (your mother cares about your feelings and wants to show you grace, that's good and we'll get to that after you acknowledge what was wrong and carry some responsibility for it). Or in the case of the puppy eye poodle, making similar acknowledgement for the sake of our little daughter who would otherwise see me as a monster for not giving in to the doggie's every whim (mind you she dresses him up, carries him around everywhere, and pets him long after he's throwing out those 'please save me' eyes to anyone else in the room.

So it's all good fun 😁
