The year is 2044. Bitcoin has unlocked troves of cheap energy Coupled with AI and automation, this has driven the prices of basic living necessities to historic lows.

90% of the population are now influencers, life-coaches, and fitness instructors that buy each others courses on how to make money selling courses

Would you say this is more or less true?

If you have a strong “pro-Palestinian” view you fall into one or more of these groups:

* A leftist - Israelis are “colonizers” and are therefore in the wrong

* Anti-American - you resent the US for the way it has wielded its power for the last 80 years

* Anti-Semitic - you believe Jewish people manipulate various aspects of the world

Certainly, I could. But I still find it jarring

The primal wallet asks for an email address? Is that a joke?

habeas corpus and presumption of innocence

I won’t tell anyone they’re wrong for supporting Bukele. Especially not the people of El Salvador.

O see ye not yon narrow road,

So thick beset with thorns and briers?

That is the path of righteousness,

Though after it but few enquires.

And see ye not that braid braid road,

That lies across that lily leven?

That is the path of wickedness,

Though some call it the road to heaven.
