Wild that Bitcoin Twitter lost its network effect in a matter of months

Reading as therapy isn’t discussed enough. The right book allows for non-threatening self-reflection that stimulates blocked emotions, missing awareness, empowering knowledge, and a reason for hope.

I remain unequivocally committed to the belief that the hiking shoe spike is the best tool ever invented. Takes you from ice skating to 100% functional stepping

Something different about the 🏔️☀️

Headed to bitcoin country for the week 🤠 #[0]

Thank god for running

My uncle was an architect. He kept a daily journal inside his sketchbook that consisted primarily of ideas, stories, doodlings, and newspaper clippings. He used it as the physical embodiment of what captured his attention over decades and it was at once goofy, intense, spiritual, and inconsequential meandering. When he began experiencing early dementia, his journals became a lifeline. A way for him to remember people, places, spatial rules, and important times. When he passed, his commitment to journaling culminated in dozens of physical notebooks that were gifted to his kids. The value for them was beyond comprehension. It was a way for them to be with their dad again and explore sides of him they had never experienced before.

I’ve always wondered what the digital version of this sketchbook would be for my generation. A blog felt too formal and Twitter felt too impermanent. Nostr could be the solution and for that, I am excited. #[0] #[1]
