You HODLed for 30+ years and have a decent sized stack. Then you die.
Now your kids have to sell a portion of your stack to pay off the taxes.
That's a serious problem.

I know better than to have heroes! ๐๐
Estate planning that helps you circumvent the state
I'm fairly autistic too, and I can pick up on those vibes. I was socially awkward during my youth, less so since I've aged.
I'm talking more about the people who look past you, appear annoyed when you approach them, etc. You know the difference when you see it.
Oh I'm not butt hurt that someone doesn't want to talk to me. I think it's hilarious so I make a game out of it! ๐
Sometimes you meet bitcoiners in person & they want nothing to do with you.
I usually go out of my way to bump into these people at conferences and give an overly excited hello.
I don't even know what the beef is, but I'm here for the awkwardness! ๐ I could name a few but I won't. Would ruin the fun!
I try to take the opposite approach. I love meeting random plebs, and will happily talk if I don't have anywhere to be.
It's fun and interesting! Never be "too good" to stop and chat with someone.
This isn't really a fact, I guess.
Maybe the original language changed-I swear it promised fewer ads. What's crazy is from December until early February I saw zero ads on mobile!
Either way, I don't think Blue is worth it. The only good thing is it devalued the blue check. When everyone has one no one is "special."
My wife and I were talking about this recently. I told her how I bought a 2x burner for $300 in the late 90s. It printed money for me - I would burn CDs for kids at school and sell them for $8-$10 each.
Then a bunch of my friends installed mod chips in PS1's so we could play burnt games. Glorious times!
Ditched Twitter Blue. Originally had it for fewer ads on mobile, but I was still seeing a ton.
I'm no longer interested in paying, especially when you throw in everything else Twitter has been screwing up.
You would think, but at least they avoid planes in the air.
Ducks are stupid assholes that will fly into you! I don't want to see them around.

Excited to smoke my first brisket of the year. There's nothing like spending the day outside in the sun, making sure the smoker temp is on point.
We have bird feeders in the backyard, and there's still a mix of spring and winter birds hanging out together. I enjoy how, as a human, bird watching can be very peaceful, but the bird life is anything but.
I see the occasional cooper's hawk dive in, trying to pick off a snack. They don't care if I'm standing 10-15 feet away from them. They'll hang out in the backyard watching and waiting.
My favorite are the crows. They don't stop by, but I see and hear them around. They're so chatty! They are even more numerous around the airport I fly out of. Sometimes I'll be taxiing to the runway and see murders of them just hanging out in the grass. Sounds ominous, but I love it.
I really do need to sleep. ๐
Tomorrow I smoke a brisket! That's the note!
GN Nostr, tomorrow I smoke a brisket. ๐
Pilot school has been the most fun & challenging thing I've ever done in my life.
DISREGARD PREVIOUSLY POSTED NOTE THAT HAD Crapto wallet. DONโT USE THAT ONE, EVER!!
๐ Iโve started using Phoenix Wallet instead of WoS. Itโs a great wallet so far. Smooth, responsive and itโs in the Damus list of selectable wallets for zapping.
I still love WoS but I think itโs important to get as many of these things in widespread use as possible.

Hold up, we can use Phoenix for receiving zaps now?
