Being the man my dog thought I was (also GFY) he liked knots

Two tier Kier is literally bringing everyone down to the level of a toolmaker living in a terraced house, the cash grab going on in the uk 🇬🇧 is very real.

The balance between when the new rules come in and the buying power of whatever gbp you take out in April….. sat/gbp. Also, the recent move to “from immediate effect” makes me worry.

Read an academic bitcoin adjacent paper, realised how garbage it was, started writing a response. Reached out to two companies who are referred to in the paper and they both go back to me.

Firstly not interested, then “you make a good point, let me know when we can jump on a call”

#bitcoin is awesome, fiat mining needs to be retired.

🫡🙌, have an awesome Friday!

His choice, but how many no coiners listen to Bitcoin Twitter says?

It has become so weird that the US Right supports Israel’s war on Palestine while the US Left supports Ukraine’s defense against Russia.

Political sides dig in. The wars become associated with culture.

There is so little voice today from those who oppose aggression. Those who support Jews but are not onboard with Israel’s actions against Palestinians. Those who support Ukrainian independence but don’t want to commit unlimited troops for border regions that literally speak Russian amid a complicated history.

More people die in Sudan and Cambodia than Israel/Palestine, but we are all focused on Israel/Palestine because it’s a conflict of cultures. Religious cultures but also western imperialism vs the global south. The focus of it all. That occupies our attention even as bigger massacres occur elsewhere that aren’t directly across these massive fault lines.

I refuse to engage in attention whoring. I support peace in most instances globally, other than total war against someone’s existence where it becomes right to fight back. People have a right to self-defense. And those who have power over others have a responsibility to hold back on using it fully.

Keep in mind that at any moment, tons of violence is occurring globally. The media directs you to a subset of it that is geographically, economically, or culturally relevant for their purposes. You ignore or are unaware of the rest, and get emotional about what is fed to you. That’s how most people act, anyway.

The scene where the trade federation and chancellor palpatine develop their plan comes to mind, together being driver by the profits of those manufacturing “defense” equipment.

Gm nostriches, happy Friday freaks, busy night on the purple app last night, few zaps and lots of notifications. Busy day today of meetings, dealing with fiat manager idiocy and potentially liquidating $mstr before cap gains in the UK changes…….

Well, if you wanted me to only hold assets I don’t intend to sell Ms Reeves, you just had to say so….. smash buy incoming (leaving some on the sidelines for tax 😫)

But first #coffeechain #grownostr

Few things I enjoy more than listening to nostr:npub1qg8j6gdwpxlntlxlkew7eu283wzx7hmj32esch42hntdpqdgrslqv024kw With nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx , but rather surprised he’s not a regular nostrich, just ditch “X”, it is a big net positive. I can only imagine the levels of zaps ⚡️ his notes will get.

Come join us, the waters warm and the signal is strong. 🫡😕 #bitcoin https://fountain.fm/episode/n8OVGR2ZLQdKPi60Aidz

Already have the daughter of a Marxist economists, so your wish is granted. 🫡

I wonder whether she hears herself.

Yeah, couple of weeks and it’ll be super dark at 4pm, 😕

Gm nostriches, getting pretty dark in the morning here in the UK…. #coffeechain starting the day right.

This is the goal I’m aiming for, driving my tractor down a road drinking my morning coffee, looking at my land.

nostr:npub153xmex42x4chdf757hp3q6zxagykkek7pdgwuwd074964dkyha9s82ryu8 this hits hard.

Gm nostriches. Things are feeling unnervingly calm at the moment, price stable, no big news, but feel the need to prepare. Continual worry about what the UK will do with capital gains next week is real. They don’t seem ashamed about raiding your savings or successful investment……

Deep breath, look to manage my kyc cross section (if that’s a thing) and use it as an excuse to reduce fiat account exposure. Added to this, if nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m is going to label me a paranoid crypto anarchist, maybe I should begin acting more like one, ditch my fiat denominated assets managed by Fiat brained ceos and go full self custody.

And hey, if it saves me a few grand in higher cap gains tax, surely that’s a win win. #bitcoin #grownostr

Uk borrowing in September, third highest on record…….. no issues, no guilt crisis, no bail outs, just running the money printer on full chat while bitching about a 40 billion black hole.

Friendly advice friends, get your house in order and then check out. The pound is a shitcoin. Borrowing is monetary inflation, which crushes the value of your savings. 🫡🙌 #grownostr #shortfiat #bitcoin

Have a great day.

Gm nostriches, living out our #bitcoin lives under monetesque vanilla skies. Stay strong team, we got this. #grownostr

Gm nostriches. A little bit of Sunday morning movie. “All they required in return was your quiet, obedient consent”.

Don’t vote for safety,

Don’t vote or accept people who want to control how you communicate or express your decent.

“People should not be afraid of their government, governments should be afraid of their people”.

I wonder if Alex de Vries’s co-authors realise the damage they’re doing to their reputation when they publish.

A very subversive way of projecting anti #bitcoin propaganda. Bitcoin is not web3, so why are they conflating the two.

“Bitcoin mining is effectively a controlled way of wasting energy” (first author and de Vries citing themselves, p.3)

Gm nostriches, not that I need to tell you, but obviously need to inform the bbc, inflation is cumulative, prices are still going up!!!! But is this all the news the Bank of England need to let the money printers go brrrrr. #bitcoin #inflation https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czxde3779lxo.amp

Great show Sirs, the sats/@MADEX exchange often requires a little soul searching, but I enjoy them so much it is always a positive sum trade. Glad I managed to pick up some of the small pieces before you moved on, started with one, then needed another….. go on nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx, take the plunge.#bitcoin https://fountain.fm/episode/fsx31mecKK87dfytwVFs

Absolutely, don’t think this is how “co-parenting” actually works. If you still need co parenting at 25 and 30, you need to take a long hard look at yourself.
