There's only one picture of my husband and I online in any English-language context, and it's not labeled as such but rather is buried in a Twitter thread and just kind of put in there as one of many photos, on purpose as an easter egg.

We like privacy, so we don't post many pictures.

But since I already showed my left ear on Nostr (likely for the first time ever in a public picture, funnily enough), I might as well give Nostr the exclusive to my husband as well. It's technically not new, which is why I can show it, but rather I can just be more specific about it. It's a picture of us from back in 2021 at Sahl Hasheesh in Egypt that we've had quietly online for three years. As readers of Broken Money know, his name is Mohamed Badran.

Mohamed is the editor of all of my long-form content, deals with the technical backend of the website, and inspires me to be better as a person every day.

As an update on my (probably bad) hobby sci fi book, I’m up to 45,000 words written.

Very enjoyable to write. The first draft is 40% completed.

PSA: I often drink beer, and I prefer Miller Lite, but I also enjoy an Asahi when eating hot pot. #beerstr

Nice.

Pizza season.

Saying ai is stealing is like saying being inspired and making art in someone’s style is stealing. It’s just hard for humans because computers learn much faster and it seems unfair that computers can make art in your style with so little effort. nostr:note1v992ptyddc5z4h898fl3wx5zjuvn80ahh0lmjm6jqe88trwh35vqz0lnz3

Best story wins 100k sats.

Just said “nothing stops this train” on Fox Business live. ;)

Who knows how real either number is, but notably I crossed 70k followers here on Nostr a couple days before I touched 700k on Twitter.

The Social Security Administration expects their reserves to run out in 2035.

That’s a different pile of money than most other government functions, and so without either tax increases or legislation that transfers other money to it, payments going out to retirees could actually be cut after that due to not enough income flowing in.

I’m not sure what they’ll do at that point since we don’t even know what things will look like then, but basically 2035 is the next station to see if the train keeps going or not.

This drawdown will represent “intergovernmental” public debt turning into public debt held by either the private sector, foreign sector, or central bank.
