Another night in the fiat mines. Hope yalls day was well.
Remember the greatest atrocities ever committed against other human beings were committed in the name of the greater good for society every single time.
how can memes help society form a better fighting function? Jeffery tells us in todays read
Change, i believe, can only occur with incentives.
I think just government in general is the issue at hand. Also democracy on its face is a farce idea that has been incepted into our brains as the best, least evil option, when in fact it is actually the greatest evil thats ever been perpetrated by human beings.
Voluntary consensual exchange and agreements with the ability to withdraw from said exchange and agreements is the ultimate solution.
In a democracy we instill the idea that a 51%majority should be allowed to force the other 49% into any situation whatsoever, and the other 49% are taught that they should allow themselves to be subject to the other 51% because this is the only way humans can interact is so completely wrong in so many different ways.
We go out into the world everyday and take the risk that our neighbors/other individuals we come across wont stab us in the neck. The idea that the only reason this doesnt occur (news flash it still does) is that there is a law against it from happening takes some of the greatest mental gymnastics ive ever seen.

Havent paid for XBOX live in years now. The gaming industry has really been hit HARD by fiat.
Thr industry lacks so much potential due to the overlords of investors who have boards who stifle innovation abd creative thinking and risk taking of new fresh gaming ideas.
So we keep getting repeat titles repackaged, replaced, " remastered", it all ends up being more of the same sadly.

I've enjoyed being away from the digital world for a while. I've lurked and made the occasional poast here and there, but for much of this year I've been focused life in meatspace.
Writing, reading, lifting, grappling, living, travelling, eating, reading, sun, sand, seawater, sex - and building..
It's a strange feeling coming back to bird app (is it even a bird anymore??) - but here we go. I definitely got pulled into the vortex of stupidity in 2022, so it will be interesting to see how I manage it this time.
I've got 3 primary project this year, and I'll be posting about them + doing a podcast and spaces roadshow to discuss each.
1. nostr:npub1tayp5jjjfqx4ufukxqamsl28wd5pggvteqe6u9n3svjn62lfr0hsp89l42 - this is an attempt to build a more 'based', Bitcoin-Austro-AnCap language model that doesn't waste half the response moralising and apologising, and the other half on platitudes. The hope is that it will become more than just a tool for Orange-Pilling people, but also one they can use for some biased feedback / ideas / opinions that are not of the woke variety..
2. BitcoinTimes.io - In its 6th time around the sun, this year's Bitcoin Times will be "The Energy Edition." Bitcoin has fundamentally transformed our understanding of "What is Money," and it is now compelling us to dig even deeper. Vaclav Smil said that "Energy is the currency of the Universe." Turns out Bitcoin is a symbiosis of both. If you've got an interesting on take on Bitcoin through the lens of energy, or energy through the lens of Bitcoin, reach out because Gideon Powell & I are co-writing a piece, and we have room for 2 more collaborators. You'll be joining nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy Drew Armstrong of Cathedra, Harry Sudock & Brian Gitt
3. Last but not least, The Bushido of Bitcoin, being published by Bitcoin Magazine. This is a different kind of Bitcoin book, and one focused more on WHO one must become, if Bitcoin does transform the world in the way we think it will. What Virtues will be most important to embody and inculcate in our kin? What will the new playbook-for-life look like, when the materialist-oriented, money printing machine dies, and the measuring stick for human competition and cooperation becomes fixed & incorruptible? I ask some very hard questions in this book, and will challenge your thinking about Warfare, morality, the body and the mind, money, affluence and much more.
I'm adding the finishing touches to the book now, and hope it will be available for The Bitcoin Conf in Amsterdam.
I know some of you have asked me if I'm going to kick the Podcast off again. For now, no. I want to focus on my own things right now, and as you can probably tell, my plate is pretty full.
In saying that, I will endeavour to do some writing again, both for Bitcoin Magazine and on my own Substack; The Remnant Chronicles.
A particular topic I want to delve into is Bitcoin Nietzscheanism, and how "Energy Money" as a concept makes way for a world in which Quality, Excellence, Merit, Ingenuity, and Vitality once more become North Stars.
That's an update from me, not that you asked for it. More a diary entry for me.
Good timing too. I just realised it's the 1st of August!
My favourite month..
See y'all around.
Glad to see you focusing your energy alex. Looking forward to the outcome of pure unabated energy focus. You are an inspiration to others. Keep up the work.
