New word for 2026 I think:

Fraudberg: Tip of the Iceberg of Fraud we all knew was there but “officials, “leaders” snd mainstream media” could not/would not see.

A young American YouTuber - Nick Shirley - exposed MASSIVE FRAUD in Minnesota. Citizen journalist doing what legacy media refuses to. Kudos to this young man. Great job!

So far he has over 50 million views on X. Hopefully he’ll come to Nostr at some point as well. But it is HUGE and well worth watching.

Merry Christmas!

I’m the oldest of 5. I care about my siblings. I’ve helped a couple of them a bit when they’ve needed it.

But I can’t ever imagine tying my finances, my housing, the rules of their houses - to mine. I can’t imagine someone - that none of the 5 of us really chose - being the arbiter of an arrangement like this.

Why would one ever get into a “partnership” like that?

Why in the hell did the EU ever exist in the first place? What am I missing?

More people should conceal carry

I haven’t read a fiction book in years. But I decided to purchase and read “The Blood of the Bourgeoisie” by a young Bitcoiner named Michael Sullivan.

Yes - I’m a sucker for any book about bitcoin. But - seriously - it was pretty darn good. Quick easy read.

I would say it’s quite difficult to sprinkle bitcoin into a “normal” book and make it read “normal” (for now) and think it may be tough for the foreseeable future. But I’m

Glad to see it and I hope works like this picks up speed.

Also - It was Kind of a nice break from Econ, history, money.

(Admittedly, I’m not techie and tried - and failed - “Mastering Bitcoin”)

I’ve said this for a few years now - I’m here because of the F ing tyranny of 2020. The techies were here much before 2020. And I’d say those that are pissed off hard ass freedom lovers - enraged and engaged from the scam-demic - like me - are all already here.

The next wave comes from story tellers - we need to appeal to emotion. We need to promote the great works of the likes of nostr:nprofile1qqs0rxy6jmt44guxkny8z4pkym9mxckqxfytygxuntjn6l80hj409sgpzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpzamhxue69uhkxcfwdaexzmn8v4cxjmrv9ejx2as55yku7 and nostr:nprofile1qqs9336p4f3sctdrtft2wlqaq5upjz9azpgylhfd3dplwf005mfrr9sprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9uju6rfva5xc6t8dp6x2u3wvdhk6qg5waehxw309ahx7um5wghx77r5wghxgetk3mhucz .

We need to show the villages of Africa becoming electrified by the likes of great companies like Gridless.

Anyway - it’s great to see young Bitcoiners trying to change the world for the better. I thank you all.

Bought a bitkey to experiment with it. I’m not keen on facial recognition. Does anyone know if there’s an analog way to log out. Seems like there would be a pin number on the app in order to access it.

Just found this license plate in basement. I have no idea why I saved it. I’m 99.9% sure this is from a car I bought the year my son turned 16 so he could have my old junk truck. Guess what month/year I bought it: Jan. 2009! No shit! I didn’t get into Bitcoin until 2020. Damn!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Great article on the importance of bitcoin remaining a tool for freedom.

I’ve sent this guys videos to several friends over the last few weeks. Love it! Hahaha

It’s Thanksgiving here in America today.

Very thankful for all of you freedom loving bitcoiners I’ve had the good fortune to meet and interact with these last 5 years. You give me hope. Ty all.

🦃 ₿

In Florida at our Airbnb. Enjoying life. Reflecting a bit.

I can bitch about the state of the world better than most.

But I do - very seriously - make efforts to positively affect change as well.

To me, if u r gonna bitch - realize that there are 2 sides to the ledger.

Complain all you want - Then Add real value on the other side.

#bitcoin #balance #life is short

This is the incredible art work done by my friend Mike Bowers. Mike is the artist that created our Magic Mural in Colon, MI. This is Mike’s church. He’s been creating this part of the church for 18 years. Truly truly amazing. Feels like you are in a Dr. Suess world. All 3D. Check out his work here: https://www.mbstheming.com/gallery wow…

Just played poker w a bunch of friends I’ve played with for over 20 years.

Lost $60.00

Worth every dime.

Bought the dip of the dip today.

We are looking at having our next meetup Saturday January 10th.

Thinking of the same type format:

Start (what time start? 5?? 6??) at The Grand Magic Theater - have some kind of 20-30 min presentation.

Have a short Q & A after.

Then to pizzeria for pizza, cheesecake, etc. for an hour or so.

And then to Colon American Legion for adult beverages.

Please let me know if some of you can make it.

Thoughts?

What type of presentation?

Best times?

Thanks all.

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Take care,

Carl

11-10-2025. First day that square has allowed every business in the country to take bitcoin on their terminals. Thank you, Jack Dorsey. Thank you you square. Thank you, Bitcoin!

It’s a great meetup spot. Very cool old industrial building. And - as I said - I’m not techie at all. Just a freedom loving pizza guy that bitcoin spoke to - screamed to really - after the garbage of 2020.

These young men - and bitcoin - give me Great hope.

Just went to a Bitcoin meet up in South Bend, Indiana tonight. I was there with a bunch of much younger fellas. It’s very uplifting and gives me great hope to see these young men not only trying to better their lives for themselves and their families, but their communities and really the world in general.

As everyone knows, there can be a hell of a lot of negativity these days. It can just surrounds us like air with ubiquitous social media.

Being around positive, thinking, striving, young men - taking real agency and moving their lives forward is incredibly uplifting.

Thank you fellas.

Looks like Florida will be getting a few thousand more high net worth New Yorkers…

I don’t live there. Been there a zillion times over 30 plus years.

Sister is a social worker in Harlem. Her husband is far left lawyer for NYU. (She’s basically apolitical)

They lived in manhattan for years and years - then Broklyn for a few years. Now north of city 30-40 mins.

I asked why she left: “well, schools are not great and crime getting worse”.

(I said - no shit. You voted for that BS for 30 years. Now have enough money to escape. Too bad for those left behind…”)

I’ve only been back once after the scam-demic. Got stuck overnight in June of 23 (if I remember correctly) during United’s flight meltdown that day/days.

It was a Monday night in manhattan - and it was dead. Only one bar open after 9pm. in a nice area I stayed in.

How many bars/restaurants killed in the city that never sleeps by that scam-demic bullshit? Don’t get me wrong / it killed thousands out here in the Midwest as well.

But this guy? This far far left socialist? I feel bad for the people that can’t escape.

And I worry that NYC is a springboard for his further ambitions.

Bitcoin fixes a lot, it gives me great hope.

it does not - IMO - fix the electing of these types of dangerous politicians.

I’ll take a flawed republican any day over these types.

I wish you well.

Call me a dumb fuck then. There is no equivalency between the two. Not one building was set ablaze after Kirk’s murder. Nor one town.

Harken back to the scam- Demic, where cities were on fire for weeks and months. Billions of dollars of damage done by Lunatics.

Further: I live in Michigan. During the scam-Demic bullshit this state was locked down like a drum. Thankfully, I live in a rural area. that had a very libertarian sheriff at the time. And also, thankfully, I live ~ 20 minutes from Indiana. I was down there two or three days a week for some freedom and sanity. While our bars and restaurants were closed up forever by tyrannical bitch running this state, Indiana was wide open. Same with Florida. Both ran by Republicans. I drove to Florida five times during that bullshit, (again - for freedom and sanity) because I would not wear their slave mask to fly. (18 hour drive one way) I have issues with both sides, but they are not equivalent. One is far better than the other. Far, far better.

The most poignant statement I saw on X yesterday was this - I paraphrase:

‘You didn’t see one building or city burn last night. That tells you everything you need to know.’

In my own words - it’s not the right’s policies that allow illegal immigrants to stay here in the USA and murder innocent women. It’s not the right’s policies that allow criminals - mental or otherwise - to remain free after13 god damn other interactions with the law - and then slit an innocent young girl’s throat.

As a libertarian I’ve had plenty of issues with the right.

But it’s not them creating, supporting, facilitating lawlessness in our country.

I milked cows and worked on a farm during the last 2 years of high school. But I never worked on tractors. So when these 2 old tractors cane w the farm, I really had no intention of messing w them. Lucky for me, my grandson and his buddies love that stuff!

Met some more young Bitcoiners the other day. I truly appreciate their passion.

They give me great hope.

I have no issue with someone transitioning once they reach adulthood. It’s there life. I feel sorry for them. I hope they find that they are looking for.

BUT, to compete in sports, against biological women is ridiculous.

These men have no shame. Zero. None. Nada.

Truly pathetic.
