Sneak peak of the 2025 recruiting materials. TBH - I've changed careers for far less in the past!

I’ve prioritized sleep this past year, mostly for recovery and muscle growth. I’ve found eight hours to be optimal, much more and I feel groggy. #health #fitness

All scarily plausible other than the arrest Fauci BS.

GM all. First coffee!

Here's a new year's resolution for you.

Decide what it is you want.

Write that shit down.

Make a fucking plan.

And...

Work on it.

Every.

Single.

Day.

Lots of shoulder work today, pull-ups, chin-ups. I had to get taped 😟 Getting old.

Whoa! Just stumbled upon a copy of an illustration I did in my college days ('90s). Pencil construction and watercolor. #artstr #illustration #graphicdesign

#asknostr - for those who design stuff to be printed on paper sizes for the US (Letter) and everyone else (A4), what dimensions do you use? Or do you just create 2 documents?

I want to make monthly bonus printouts for nostr:npub1wdpfy4xgam85u9wxpuau24qrddpwqk53gexvnnnmguyqqtvspjeqvc0p5m art challenges.

I thought about making one file at 8” x 10” (20.32 cm x 25.4 cm), and let the user’s printer adjust (or not), but wanted to ask to see if there were other options. Thanks!

As a former Brit now living in US, this is hell for me. I do two different sizes. A4 (the right size) and US letter ;-)

How does one get WoS now that it is no longer available via Apple AppStore?

Someone has a sense of humor...

The Agency (Showtime) is surprising accurate in its portrayals of methods.

IRS Safe-harbor Deadline. Here's a good video by Andreas where he does his best to clarify the comments of the certified bitcoin professional who cannot form a single clear sentence! > https://youtu.be/M1XPOFgjNPk

There are five simple steps most people should take.

Step 1: Consolidate your assets: the goal is to reduce the number of wallets you have for each asset type to a reasonable number. If tax were your only consideration, then the ideal number is one asset / one wallet. However, given security and other issues, one to one isn't necessarily realistic. Review what you have, consolidate where you can, in the context of what makes sense for you.

Step 2: In the process of consolidation, remove all assets from centralized exchanges. This is to allow "cost basis cleansing". You can move them back later (after January 1, 2025) if you want. The reason to do this is because unless you have only ever used one exchange, kept your assets there, and never moved them elsewhere, after 2025 the exchange will likely report an incorrect cost basis.

Step 3: Simplify, ideally into pure assets. The more fringe things you're doing, like staking, the more challenging from a tax perspective things will be for you moving forward. If you don't really understand the tax implications, you may want to simplify for now. Spend a bit of 2025 learning about tax and then jump back in when you're ready for the recordkeeping necessary to keep your tax situation clean.

Step 4: Download a report (or create a spreadsheet) showing your tax basis for your assets, correct errors as needed. Write a memo to document any weirdness. Save the file(s) with some reference to "2024 IRS Safeharbor" in the name.

Step 5: Use opentimestamps.org to timestamp your correct report and memo, which will provide proof of your personal declaration in 2024 when and of the time comes.

Note: At no point are you sharing, reporting, or declaring *ANYTHING* to the IRS. This is *ONLY* a preparedness exercise, should you choose to do it. #YMMV #safeharbor

Not sure if I already asked, did you dry fast (not even water) or did you still drink water?

Thinking of doing 48 hrs myself (prepare the food pics to send my way!)

I’m not sharing anything with anyone. There’s no reporting here. It’s really just getting your shit in order. Other than the 5-10 mins it took me there’s no harm in having the information captured. Air gapped on a USB in my safe.

Don’t know if this IRS Safe harbor thing will ever be a “thing” but did it anyway out of an abundance of caution. Here’s proof of work.
