Might have to get ol Cuckerson on nostr:npub10qrssqjsydd38j8mv7h27dq0ynpns3djgu88mhr7cr2qcqrgyezspkxqj8 one of these days and grill him.
The people need to hear from the hardest working journalist in the U.S.
“We labour at our daily work more ardently and thoughtlessly than is necessary to sustain our lives because it is even more necessary not to have leisure to stop and think.
Haste is universal because everyone is in flight from himself.”
-Friedrich Nietzsche
“What the really great artists do is they're entirely themselves. They're entirely themselves, they've got their own vision, they have their own way of fracturing reality, and if it's authentic and true, you will feel it in your nerve endings.”
-David Foster Wallace
Be yourself. Don’t run from yourself. Stay weird. Stay free.
Adding this to the top ten moments in American democracy this week, joining the already prodigious list of the Constitution being dangerous, having more children being a ponzi, and the defense of taxing unrealized gains.

The state of things this week. In case you missed it, the Constitution is one of the “biggest threats to America’s politics,” having more children us propagating a Ponzi scheme, and taxing unrealized gains is good.
Orwell said “Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.”
Disempower this nonsense with #bitcoin and #nostr.

David Foster Wallace on Kafka’s humor:
“It's not that students don't "get" Kafka's humor but that we've taught them to see humor as something you get -- the same way we've taught them that a self is something you just have. No wonder they cannot appreciate the really central Kafka joke -- that the horrific struggle to establish a human self results in a self whose humanity is inseparable from that horrific struggle. That our endless and impossible journey toward home is in fact our home. It's hard to put into words up at the blackboard, believe me. You can tell them that maybe it's good they don't "get" Kafka. You can ask them to imagine his art as a kind of door. To envision us readers coming up and pounding on this door, pounding and pounding, not just wanting admission but needing it, we don't know what it is but we can feel it, this total desperation to enter, pounding and pushing and kicking, etc. That, finally, the door opens...and it opens outward: we've been inside what we wanted all along. Das ist komisch.”
Bitcoiners protecting the value of their labor against inflation, debasement, geopolitical fuckery, excessive taxation, and general governmental overreach by simply hodling #bitcoin.
Bittersweet listening to this, and although nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx and nostr:npub16le69k9hwapnjfhz89wnzkvf96z8n6r34qqwgq0sglas3tgh7v4sp9ffxj almost discredited their entire body of work by suggesting that some random rowboat guy is a better athlete than Michael Jordan (thanks Jack Mallers for setting the record straight), this one really felt like a timestamp on the whole space.
When I got into #bitcoin in earnest in 2020, after a tumultuous dalliance with it in 2017, I never thought it would prove to be the journey it has - financially, socially, politically, and intellectually.
In mid-2022 I got a DM from Danny about going on the show. I flew out to Bedford to hang, record a show, and see a Real Bedford game. Needless to say, it was a pretty thrilling experience, and both Danny and Pete were extremely warm and welcoming dudes.
Pete’s generosity of time and spirit remains underrated and under-appreciated, and it will be sorely missed.
I was ostensibly invited on because I had been writing and publishing a lot about progressive politics and its increasingly uneasy relationship with Bitcoin. At the time, and perhaps because I was still clinging to my longtime identity as a progressive, I still believed the two were congenial.
Even though my views have changed and evolved significantly since that recording, and even though I was probably a little early and a little green in my podcasting career to effectively articulate all my thoughts at the time, the experience is one I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.
WBD was an integral part, an essential part of my #bitcoin journey. Without it, I’m probably in a different situation. And I know I’m not alone in that opinion.
The pantheon of guests throughout the years have been some of the most influential voices in my life.
In my house the joke is I’m either quoting Shakespeare or nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx, T.S. Eliot or nostr:npub10cxz2h7n6rumfpuf49zt4uvm7skzqk5u25vesp0tzdtnkvsnwjyqaffcj3 . And it’s true. That’s how my brain works. But it’s also a testament to the show as a kind of real-time mapping of the space. Pete and Danny were like Lewis and Clark exploring the topography of the Bitcoin movement and reporting back
I could go on forever, but suffice to say it’s bittersweet listening to the last episode. Sad that it’s ending, but excited for the next chapter of the show.
Onward! nostr:note1amkk2gq4zqgrzf27dxel0f8alj06r8a9pma0ugltqr9cxwp5lgpsa77slz
