None of the big names are worth a damn. As a tradesmen, I can’t get a pair to last more than 10 months. Most didn’t make it 6.
Try some of the smaller handmade outfits. I use JK boots, but I’ve heard Nicks is great too. Both out of Spokane Valley, WA. You’ll be into a pair of boots for $600+ but you’ll get years out of them instead of months.
No affiliation but an extremely happy customer.
Cause I got a new plucker and now I’ve got a freezer to fill.
Clearly he understands that the reward he will receive will likely not keep up with inflation. 🤣
The Pontiac Vibe of the early 2000s was also known as the Toyota Matrix. Does that have the same matrix to you?

The US should be abolished and sovereignty returned to individual states, so that governments can better represent their people.
In my case, (Oregon), I’d be screwed worse, but if it brings more freedom to more people I’ll support it.
But I’d take it farther: Governments, of any form, should be abolished and sovereignty returned to the individual, so people can better represent their interests.
Bitcoin lets anyone be their own bank in a way that was too much of a challenge with fiat or gold. What technology allows us to be our own sovereign?
I did check the comments (half the amusement on any “serious” video) but didn’t check the screenames of them. I also figured anyone on Nostr already sees the BTC value, but I had sent the video on to my girlfriend who is earlier in her financial education journey and added that caveat, so figured I’d post it here too. Good find.
Good until it states categorically that there is no third option beyond private banks or public banks. Welcome to individual banks with a public, verifiable ledger. Welcome Bitcoin & self-custody.

Holding on my own keys is ideal for as much of my stack as possible. But at the end of the day I live in and have expenses in a fiat world and I’d rather pay those with leverage against an appreciating asset I control through trust than to sell that asset and not profit from its appreciation.
Love your loan product. It allows me to save in bitcoin and live the life I desire and that makes sense to me.
- Income goes to acquire an asset with huge growth potential.
- Expenses are charged against debt on that asset expressed in a collapsing fiat.
- Requires a stack large enough to maintain a comfortable buffer to cover downturns. But if that buffer drops too small, I’m fully collateralized and can liquidate assets to pay off debt at a 4:3 ratio.
- Debt load is kept under asset growth (due to stack size and ongoing income).
Result is I maximize the BTC I acquire, my net wealth grows faster then my fully collateralized debt, and I provide stability to cover my expenses despite a highly variable income. Looking forward to the line of credit options to make this process even smoother.
I don’t understand the hate. This is the end game product I’ve been waiting for. My biggest risk out of my control is that portion of my stack that is held by Strike and over-collateralized beyond my debt load. But you can’t find fiat financing partners without that. So I have to trust that Strike maintains proof of reserves for BTC held without re-hypothecating. I wonder if there would be a way to provide a signed on chain address for BTC on a loan to know Strike has the keys to that address and that the collateralized BTC is not touched during the life of the loan.
Regardless, keep up the good work.
Well now you’ve got my attention, I’ve got to go track down your music and see how awesome you are! 😏 When I’m in a place I can afford to make noise anyway. I’d get strange looks playing music right here. Guess I’ll go look at pretty pictures on Instagram and browse your thoughts on Nostr. 😆
😁 *sigh* I loved her character and everything she had to say.

Really, there’s a wet paint sign on the bench.
Like with communism, those previous implementations just didn’t do it the right way. This next one will work out right, cause the right people are involved. 🙄
Massive amounts of drones in Lugano. What if Dan is right and Putin is Satoshi?

Dan is stuck in the idea that it’s not what you do and the value it brings to others that is important, but it’s more important who you know. This is what happens when you build your world on trust and faith instead of truth and verification.
Bitcoin doesn’t care. It’s a unique technology in that we benefit when our enemies use it, as we benefit when our friends use it.
“White pill moment” when you realize you can only change things within your sphere of control, but learning some of the truth about the world but having overcome the despair for changing the world you find happiness with improvements to your own life and peace by providing an insulating buffer from those aspects of concern outside of your control.
🌱 Free Screening: Living Soil: A Documentary
Join us, at White Horse Farm (Yamhill, OR) for a community screening of Living Soil: A Documentary. Our soils produce 95% of our food, filter our water, and store carbon; yet in the last 150 years, we’ve lost half of what makes them fertile. Living Soil shows innovative farmers and scientists tackling this crisis head-on. The film invites us to see soil not as dirt, but as a living system that could decide our future.
