#RageQuitAlert 🚨🚨🚨

My dad used to say this to try to minimize the sting of not getting what you want: “if we had eggs, we could make eggs and bacon - if we had bacon”

Well, i’m not sure who needs to hear this, but it could be all of us

Just because you and me and others see amazing potential in something does not mean it will come to fruition, especially not in the way(s) we expect

Bitcoin has already shown us this by going from for cypherpunks by cypherpunks, to being for everyone - including the “commies” and “normies” and “trannies” and “joos” and “suits” that some of you shit your pants over regularly as if that’s a healthy mentality. It’s still heading towards what i personally believe is its destiny, full-blown global money. So that’s cool. Could be wrong, but that’s my highest conviction in terms of any belief regarding the potentially distant future

BUT, and sorry but i’m just being honest here… i am not so sure about nostr. I’m not saying it’s due to the predominant topics of conversation or the onboarding flow or the funding structure for development or really anything in particular

But the truth is that this is a niche community on the internet. A very small niche where a lot of incredibly smart and talented people enjoy each other’s digital company and many build things together on this dynamic, incredible, open protocol. It has a lot of potential for sure… but stay humble, i guess that’s ultimately what i’m trying to say.

Think for yourself and be honest with yourself. Double check three times daily that your head’s not up your ass and you’re not in a small deadend cult-de-sac, and if in doing so you find that you are, genuinely assess whether you’re truly ok with that

Personally i’m not ok with that and right now i’m feeling like that’s sorta what’s going on here. I am certain the potential is real, and i hope the potential for the potential to be realized is high. I guess i just need a break!

So that’s what i’m gonna do. If history is any indication, i’ll be back shortly. But in this present moment i hope i can give myself more time this time. I’m a poor mfer living in obscenely expensive fiat world. I have to focus my energy on productivity for the sake of my wife and myself and the son and daughter i’ve been having visions of someday raising, and stop embracing diversions

My sincerest apologies for expressing such uncomfortable feelings. Don’t wanna harsh the vibe here any further. This is 99% a me-problem to be absolutely clear (probably comes through loud and clear huh 🤣)

Pura vida, gfy, and keep stacking those sats little by little mfers. Keep doing and building cool shit and realizing more of that potential day in and day out. I’m rooting for us, i promise

But for now… peace! 🖖🌽

peter schiff wants to debate me on Bitcoin vs Gold. thought he’d never ask.

we were born for these moments, nostr.

holding nothing back. taking no prisoners. let’s fucking go.

I don’t have a technical background so this might not make sense, but had a thought:

Lightning Network seems to have issues being clunky and hard to run nodes personally etc.

What if the geography was centralized around a localized custodial network

Example: A hotel-resort opens in El Salvador and runs a LN node to facilitate transactions within the resort. Almost like a room key. When you check out you send it back to your regular wallet.

Nice. Where can I check this stats?

Bullish on eekowtshembrz

Finally hoodie weather again.

Fuck yes.

Social media today is:

- any opinion you have post it frequently and immediately!! No thought necessary

- any story you see post it frequently and immediately!! Don’t check sources.

Times that by about 500 million, and yeah I’m sure we’ll all be just fine 😬

One of my first jobs was flying around the country as a referee for MLG tournaments.

I used to help run tournaments in Halo 2, Halo 3, Gears of War, Rainbow 6 Vegas, League of Legends, Dota2, StarCraft 2 etc. Total dream job for a 17 year old.

I like to think working full time on Bitcoin is the adult version of that dream job.

There's an argument against modern shoes, especially so called "sports" shoes. They have terrible ergonomics that crush your toes, deform your foot arch, and weaken your feet with their unnaturally raised toes and heels and exaggerated padding. Curiously enough, "running shoes" could be especially bad if you actually use them to run, because their allow you to do so in a way that impacts your knees and hips really badly, slamming heel first.

He may be referring to that.

Basically.

Izzy wins 8/10 times against Driccus imo.

After this fight I'm looking forward to Strickland beating Driccus a 2nd time.
