I’ll see if he wants to spring for a seacan and a couple dozen J Pro’s lol. We produce enough wood chips we could likely run a wood gasifier in the yard behind the shop and get our power down to a few cents a kW-h.
I sold my Ibanez and my Boss GT-10 and all my gear about 5 years ago. I just wasn’t getting any time to play and after thirty years I’m just a fan now. This song I uploaded to SoundCloud years ago is still there. It’s just one of my early attempts at recording with free drum and mix down software, and playing each guitar part in a single take, but the solo from 1:54 to 2:37 is ok. The rest is repetitive and not fully fleshed out.
I’ve always liked that body style and the twin humbuckers. Pretty good shredding too my man.
My employer came to me today and asked me if I could square him away on “Bitcoin stuff”.
He was pretty blown away that I already had a Bitcoin educational website built that I linked him to, and a full curriculum developed for teaching people about BTC acquisition, custody, transaction and security.
In five minutes I gave him enough material to easily keep him going for a couple of weeks, while he waits for his first signing devices and key storage hardware to show up.
I’m stressing the need to really understand the asset. And the need to stay current on best practices for the technical side of self custody. It’s not for everybody. Especially for people conditioned to using custodians for all of their investing and finance. So many people can’t even manage their passwords without relying on 2FA means of regularly recovering them.
I hope he knows what he’s in for, becoming his own bank…..manager, teller, head of IT, and head of security. I shudder to think. I hope he doesn’t rug himself by taking this responsibility lightly.
In a few weeks I’ll test his knowledge and whether or not he’s taking things seriously or not by offering to punch his seed phrases for 100k sats per set lol. Maybe make him number 3 on a two-of-three. Just because I care. Lol 😂

I learned that the hard way. On the plus side, I ended up with a couple larger ones that I can use for offline data storage
Is that a Charvel? Love the finish.
I was thinking today about the importance of “zooming out”. Zoom out on the charts. Zoom out on the markets. Zoom out on the petty bullshit at work. Zoom out on the little speck that is the biggest problem in your life.
We are hurtling through space on a beautiful green and blue marble that will be here long after we are gone.
Laugh often. Get outside as much as possible. Cherish and nurture connections with others who “get it”.
And GFY. Amazing days are coming your way dumbass.

Keep an eye on him. If he only partially “gets it”, he’ll be asking you what you think about his xrp purchase over the weekend. If he really gets it, it’s a lot of disillusionment to deal with all at once while still showing up to work every day lol.
I don’t need a hug as much as I need to see some politicians swinging by their necks.
The Working Stiff’s Prayer
I pray that in placing my plans and dreams on hold to weather this economy and save in the hardest asset ever discovered, that I don’t forget HOW to plan and to dream.
Alas, if it turns out that I’m stacking solely for my last name rather than my first name, so be it.
Buy The Fucking Dip.
Amen.

The lyrics to this make me think that if Bitcoin were sentient, what it would say to other assets and the $450T of global capital it’s going to eat. But then again I’m a bit of a metalhead so I can actually understand the lyrics lol
Reading that book in 2001 and examining the things about 9/11 that didn’t mesh with what I knew about physics between 2001 and 2003 are the two things that finally woke me up to the fact that our governments and financial system are fully captured by a small group of psychopaths
That’s rad, man.

It took me half an hour to de-Google the Silverado Elevation they gave me for work and personal. And this truck has been back to the dealership three times for critical recalls. Two weeks ago I zipped home for lunch and as I pulled up and parked I got a message on the display saying that there was a software update pending for the fuel injection system. It said “hit accept to start the update”, then displayed a warning that the vehicle would be undriveable during the approximately 15 minutes it would take. Man I’d be pissed as a consumer if I dropped 80-100k on a truck and it wasn’t even really mine to use without permission from a server somewhere. I’m sure this thing could still be shut down remotely with what firmware I can’t disable.
