I wrote a short rant called "fuck easy" a couple of days ago. I've been listening to podcasts and after the 5th person complaining that nostr is too hard (is it, really?) I was fed up and typed this out on my phone. I hope that we can return to a point, culturally, where "hard" is okay, just like the first level of the original Super Mario was hard.

Coddling everyone's mind has led us to the upside-down clown world we're currently living in, and coddling everyone's body has led to less-than-optimal health, to put it mildly. In the Bitcoin world, coddling users and making things "easy" has led to Coinbase-by-default and other stupid bullshit, and I truly am fed up with all of that.

There is a better way, but the "better" isn't necessarily "easy."

Good Morning #Nostr ... #Bitcoin is winning 😁☀️🎉

Charles II of Spain was the result of nearly 200 years of inbreeding.

The House of Habsburgs stopped introducing new genes at around 1550, leading to a circular family tree.

Charles II had been born the son of an uncle-niece relationship, and historians Will and Ariel Durant described him as "short, lame, epileptic, senile and completely bald before 35, always on the verge of death but repeatedly baffling Christendom by continuing to live."

Before the age of six, Charles II had managed to survive an onslaught of diseases, which included chickenpox, measles, rubella, and smallpox.

He could not walk until he was 8 years old and could not chew food on his own. His tongue was so large that no one could understand what he was saying.

The nuncio papal Millini provided the following description of Charles II:

“The king is rather short, skinny, but not badly formed, only ugly in the face; he has a long neck, a long face, a long chin and as if it bent upwards; the lower lip typical of the Habsburgs; not very large eyes, turquoise blue and a fine and delicate complexion.

He has a look with melancholy on his face and a little astonished.

His hair is blond and long, and it is combed back so that the ears are exposed.

He cannot straighten, unless he leans against a wall, a table or something else.

His body is as weak as his mind. From time to time he shows signs of intelligence, memory and a certain liveliness, but not now; he usually looks slow and indifferent, appearing dumbfounded.

You can do whatever you want with him, since he lacks of own will."

Charles II's death in 1700 (at the age of 39) led to the War of Spanish Succession.

His autopsy report stated that his "heart was the size of a peppercorn; his lungs corroded; his intestines rotten and gangrenous; he had a single testicle, black as coal, and his head was full of water."

Well, I’ve always been a good pollinator for others or catalyst for change so catalyst for change is this Austin, like my old friend Austin, who fell in love with the beautiful woman named I can’t say her name, but I think Austin is fine considering I mean, is it the city orthe chaser

I have a YouTube channel with almost 11,000 subscribers and they have paid me about $14 a month in ad revenue for the exact same videos I share on NOSTR with only 2k followers.

NOSTR zaps on the other hand have made me an average of $30 a month, and it's all in sound money.

What platform is more rewarding for creators 💪?

Gonna say relays and an uncensorable network are a new innovation too.

Agree but most people won’t care about that. Money flow to them they will definitely care about.
