Thinking back on 2025
Probably one of the worst years I've had
Scratch that
It was, by far, the worst year of my life
*Covid was bad but it ended up being a blessing in disguise
However, this year gave me the opportunity to practice skills that will serve me well for the rest of my time here on earth - stoicism, gratitude, and discipline
I've also been thinking about how lucky I am to do what I do every day
I'm not sure how many other Bitcoin channels are 100% value for value - you could probably count them on one hand
And it's pretty fuckin cool that I'm in that company
I still have some adsense money from YouTube but it barely covers my internet bill each month. Fuck YouTube
I believe integrity is the greatest asset one can hold in life - far better than Bitcoin
And taking the V4V route allows me to speak the truth I believe in without any outside influence
Side note: I will be doing a V4V promotional segment every morning on show featuring Bitcoin/Nostr businesses starting next week!
This is a win-win-win in my eyes. Let me explain:
WIN 1 - the Bitcoin/Nostr businesses that can promote their product or service without an upfront payment (or any payment at all)
*it will be 100% success-based
WIN 2 - the community can discover new products and services being made in a low time preference world
In addition, they will be able to grow their own network and move further away from the fiat banking system
WIN 3 - I'm able to maintain my own voice without reliance on sponsors
Win-win-win is best case Ontario
Anyways, the reason for this post.

I wonder if there is a fix for this. 🤔😏

⚡️🇺🇸 NEW - Roberts: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you to take their product. So it raises the question -- how much of last night's speech was hyperbole?
Lutnick: No. What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring the drug down to $13, if you're looking at it from $13, it's down 7 times
Roberts: It's not a 600% cut
Lutnick: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now. So $13 would have to go up 700% to get back to the old one. So it all depends on when you look at it.

In the world of professional wrestling, that’s called Steiner math.
Ahhh…the peculiar Zero Hour Dipshiticus, affectionately known as the Zero Hour Dipshit, mysteriously behaving in the wild.
It’s always interesting to observe them galavanting about, in their natural habitat. Such curious and often, overly assertive creatures they are.
(*** Note: It is highly recommended to read my comment in the voice of David Attenborough, for the full effect ***)

Taking me back to rave DJing days, with this one Scottie. I dig it 👊🏾
I have a few butane stoves that came in clutch during the Snowpocalypse, a couple for years ago.

Great video, brother. It’s always good to see the co-CEOs of Cuteness, Incorporated. Hola, Flipper and Hoflr!
My therapy is working in my home barista skills, by making #coffee daily. Also, sending some freedom seeds down range makes the therapy list, among a few other things.
Keep posting great content like this, mi hermano. Lastly, please pass along the following message to Hodlr…
”You’re Killing Me, Smalls!” 😂
A snow day? That only happens about once every 4-5 year, in this neck of the woods. We already had the snowpocolypse a few years back, so I think we have maxed out our snow credits for the 2020s. 😂
This weather is amazing. I really wished this front could stick around for a while.
Will there be a replay of the webinar, for those who cannot make it at the original time of the live webinar?

If this clip isn’t the signal folks need to know that Bitcoin is going to rip, I don’t what else they need. In the meantime, stack sats, stay humble, and continue adding value to the world…and let Bitcoin cook.

Heyo everyone! New member and first post, so here it goes. Although Im 40 and have heard about Bitcoin since its conception, I never paid any attention to it. I orange pilled myself by accident December 2024 and what a journey its been thus far. I love Bitcoin for its potential and structure of a finite asset and best store of value humankind has ever known. Im now addicted to saving in sats, "This is the way." I've learned in this short time that politics are part of this puzzle as well. nostr:nprofile1qqs0x4sg8v2xzwg8dfcjpcpj08pggchz62wxlu2gga2a9zwq42wl3wsprpmhxue69uhkvmpwwp6hyurvv4ex2mrp0yhxxmmdqys8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttjv4kxz7fwv3jkumnewdkhvm3wd9hxvmc2dg2yz showed me this. He provides great content for both. Hoping to find more content here to continue to learn, feed, and grow from.

Welcome to the party, brotha. 👊🏾
Some days, you just need to go “bells” to the wall, shut up, and train. No excuses.
Push up variations/ kettlebell swings/kettlebell rows/kettlebell farmers carry
Stoic habits that will transform your life for the better
What’s good, brotha. I’m still getting a feel for this platform. Hoping it picks up momentum from more folks.
Primal & Nostr really out here making me feel like an AOL-era grandpa. 😂
