One thing that is glaringly obvious after spending a short period of time off twitter/on Nostr:

The twitter algos are hyperspecialized in inciting and amplifying highly charged emotional interactions.

This becomes more and more evident the longer you spend away from the platform.

The interactions feel much more natural, positive, and communal on Nostr. Good vibes all around.

One side of effect of controlling money is that government can run wild and prosecute and imprison as many people as it wants with no concern for cost.

A sound money budget would limit government to prosecuting only the most important things (murder, theft, etc - you know, legitimate stuff).

An unlimited budget for government negates the entire concept of rights and justice because we don't have the same ability. Government can just buy whatever it wants whether citizens agree or not.

This is where government becomes ruler of the People rather than government for and by the People.

#Bitcoin fixes this, and #Nostr helps us fight in the meantime.

Long health update from a guy who doesn't eat vegetables! 🥩

Next month I celebrate 13 years of eating a low carb, high fat & protein diet. Started with a paleo diet, and switched to carnivore over 5 years ago.

Went from 260->180lbs. Currently 205lbs thanks to strength training. Working on gaining more muscle mass! 💪

For peace of mind, I requested a fractionated lipid panel and a coronary calcium CT scan. The panel not only gives a breakdown of cholesterol, but also measures particle size. The CT scan looks for calcium deposits in the heart's arteries.

First, my lipid panel results (fasted 12 hours):

HDL: 64

Triglycerides: 47

LDL: 223

LDL Pattern: A (large & buoyant - good news!)

Total cholesterol: 302

302 total! 223 LDL! I'm a walking heart attack! 😂

Dr immediately prescribed statins. No talk about diet & lifestyle, only a call from the pharmacy saying my prescription is ready. Uh, ok?

I've never smoked, I don't consume alcohol or caffeine, and I exercise daily, including weight training 4-5x per week. I don't do "diet cheat days" either. I'm very strict about how I eat.

I've had many lipid panels done since changing my diet, and they always look like this. So I wasn't panicked, but I still felt anxious waiting for my CT scan appointment. I'm always questioning my beliefs. What if I've been wrong all these years and my heart is a mess?

Good news - I scored a ZERO! 🎉

So I celebrated like any carnivore would - with 2 ribeyes Apologies for the lack of pics - I ate the steaks too quickly. 😅

Same with doctors

I think politicians should wear sponsorship jackets, like Nascar, so we can see who owns them.

There is no cult like our current centralized overlords.

Cults never bow out. They supernova.

E.g.: Hitlers worst atrocities were committed when he started to lose.

Their time is ticking. They feel it more than we do. #MakeReady

What are your tips for making a great note?

#grownostr

Would be happy to, because this is a fundamental misunderstanding of volatility based on what your shared here. It’s purely a product of liquidity and perceived assurances from the market.

In other words, the longer it doesn’t die and becomes a certainty in the minds of the market, and the larger and more liquid the global market is (which will inevitably be far greater depth than gold purely due to its fundamental characteristics) this becomes a completely meaningless criticism and it will destroy gold in this category after saturation.

The only “volatility” that will remain will be explicitly a reflection on the market conditions, not the asset itself, which will mean those changes will be critical for market balancing.

“When will you sell your #Bitcoin”

That question obviously indicates you do not understand the game of money.

The game is not to sell assets in order to get more dollars, euros,…

The game is to get more dollars, euros,.. in order to get more assets.

That is the reason why 99% of people never escape the middle class or rat race.

They buy assets and as soon as it turns into a profit they sell it while feeling a genius by doing that (and probably use that money to by some stupid things)

How about a Nostrum?

Had a big, strong coffee on an empty stomach and now my skin is crawling and I’m super anxious about nothing at all 😖

It would be nice to have a public town square that is not controlled by anyone.

What would be a useful hashtag to start for this type of open dialogue and debate?

#USPREZ24 ?

Guys only want one thing and it's disgusting

This guy has taken at least 10 doses of the vaccine 💉😂
