Was in NY for several days for a belated 35th wedding anniversary celebration - hit the US Open a couple days, saw the Great Gatzby on Broadway, ate cake only for dinner 3 nights (so many freakin' bakeries in Manhattan)...with the appropriate amount of bourbon because that's our favorite.
Also hit nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h - and those guys are great. In fact, my Bitcoin payment through nostr:npub1ajlrwgfj4yerhqf7ady03h7wmtk2qr3gs7h3sxcx83k05yld36sswpzx3q failed...and those guys left me off the hook so I could get to the broadway show. Of course, I'm still paying them, but I need to setup a new Lightning wallet vs go through this Liquid/Lightning extra layer. But both PUBKEY and I would like to support the circular economy by paying with sats.
Sounds like Zeus, here I come.
Anyway - I haven't shared in days, so may as well share some of Robert Malone's Friday Funnies.
Cake for dinner is an aspiration
