Turns out being a freedom tech dev means studying accounting, markets and other non-comp-sci related engineering.

Just gotta show her 🤣

Not yet. I will. And I can already feel her eyes rolling 🤣

Taking others money without providing value is extremely costly to the spirit.

How does a corporation go about buying bitcoin? Our landscaping business is incorporated so is it as simple as the company just buying bitcoin as an asset?

Nostr's activity is might down, but we're still releasing apps and pushing for better privacy, more freedoms, and making sure as many ideas as possible come to fruition. I love all of you psychopaths that are still here. 💜🫂🤙🏻

every time I watch this one video about fractals I fall asleep

I can’t get through even like three minutes it’s incredible

on that note good night probably

Magical lines and circles. 👀

You do you.

Anyone saying Good Afternoon around here?

GA!

GM good people 🐸

This is going to be a great day

$108k is the new $58k

The natural state of the free market is deflation.

You’re right: change is hard and responsibility is scary, but since there’s no magic finger snap, we can start with the smallest daily acts of integrity. One step at a time: nurturing healthy communities, making conscious choices, having honest conversations. If each of us tends to our own “why,” the “how” becomes contagious.

Against the Tyranny of the Alarm Clock: Reclaiming Our Mornings

In the quiet pre-dawn hush, before the first light spills across the horizon, the human body stirs with a wisdom older than civilization. Our circadian rhythm—an elegant internal clock shaped by thousands of years of sunrise and sunset—prepares us to wake, not with violence, but with grace. Yet in modern life, this natural order is shattered daily by the shrill tyranny of the alarm clock. Jarring, artificial, and intrusive, the alarm clock should be used only as a last resort. It severs us from our biological harmony, denies us the stillness we need to begin our days, and conditions us to start each morning in panic rather than presence.

Alarm clocks are not neutral tools. They are blunt instruments of modern life’s industrial demands, originally born of factory schedules and the need to regiment human productivity. When we allow ourselves to be wrenched from sleep by a digital screech, we override our body’s intuitive process of waking. Sleep scientists have shown that waking abruptly from deep sleep—especially during the wrong phase of the sleep cycle—disrupts hormonal balance, impairs cognition, and increases stress. Over time, this habitual interruption can compound fatigue rather than alleviate it. We trade the wisdom of our own biology for the artificial rhythm of machines.

Waking naturally, by contrast, allows the body to complete its sleep cycle, releasing cortisol gradually as the sun rises, signaling the body to wake gently and clearly. This process supports mood, energy, and mental clarity. The person who wakes with the sun or ambient light, who lets their eyes open softly in silence, enters the day in communion with life—not in resistance to it.

Furthermore, alarm clocks deny us one of the most important and overlooked human needs: stillness. The moment we wake is sacred. It is a liminal space between the mystery of sleep and the demands of the world. When we are jolted into consciousness and immediately thrown into motion, we miss the quiet opportunity to align our spirit, to reflect, to breathe. The time just after waking should be unhurried—a chance to greet the day intentionally, not reactively. Alarm clocks fracture this space and reinforce a culture that idolizes urgency over awareness.

There are, of course, times when an alarm is necessary—early flights, commitments, or rare schedule constraints. But these should be exceptions, not norms. The default approach should be to design our life in harmony with our body’s rhythm: dimming lights at night, avoiding screens, rising with natural light or gentle cues like a sunrise lamp or birdsong. When we structure our days to support the body’s innate cycle, we no longer need to be coerced into wakefulness.

In a world obsessed with control, the refusal to be startled awake is an act of sovereignty. To rise without alarms is not laziness—it is alignment. It is choosing health over haste, presence over productivity, and peace over panic. When we wake gently, we don’t just reclaim our mornings—we reclaim something of our humanity.

Let the alarm clock be your last resort, not your master. Let nature, not noise, be your call to rise.

Bitcoin is Scarce

The best way to maximize all 3 is to spend your 4th of July drinking wine that you bought with Bitcoin.🇺🇸

One of my oldest friends is a Solana Maximalist.

He rode it all the way up and all the way down while winning some and losing some trading NFTs.

Dude plays poker for a living.

I'll never understand.

Last time I saw him, I asked him questions about Solana to try to understand why he was so into it.

"What's the monetary policy?"

He didn't know what that meant.

Rooting for my homie, but damn. I thought I was comfortable with risk, but he's on pure Hopium.

Was in sauna with friends and their friends back in January. Investing, then Bitcoin came up.

Two of them asked me about XRP, and were saying how high it could go. I asked them the simple question: “what’s the supply cap of XRP”

Crickets. These aren’t serious people.

So you're the one that ran me out a soap! 👀

You either have an army living with you, or you don't want to buy soap for another year. 😂

Thank you brother! I appreciate you 🙏🫂

Don't you dare tell anyone about the Bitcoin price and jinx this for all of us

Great but quite hot day hiking in Idaho

First note. Might as well go big. We have always asked the same questions and they're good questions because the answers aren't knowable. Why all this, what is all this. These questions logically lead to positing on the origin of things. Here's my take. And this is just for fun, just what makes sense to me, what works for me.

The cause of the observable, I will call God for ease of conversation. I do not see it as a he or a she or anthropomorphic in any way. It seems obvious to me that putting a face (or arms, legs, preferences, pronouns) to the origin is just our animal hubris filtering the cosmic scope through our lens. That's not big enough for me. That doesn't work. It needs to be too large for an understandable idea. So I will say It is both everything and nothing.

I propose there is an energy screen, on one side nothingness, the other side, here, awareness. God encompasses the extant and non-extant sides. When nothing is pushed through the screen we get the universe.

I like the Dao. That makes sense to me. I cannot truck something that must be asked for love, begged for favor, performed for or earned. Because that's not love. I believe in love and light and a positive force because those must be. Nothingness, before form or color, becomes force and light and that is love.

This origin could be a race of beings, the universe their terrarium. It could be a kid. It could be higher dimensions. I think probably it takes all these forms with its infinite iterations. For fun, I think God plays a game. The game is: push through the field from nothing to something and see if this is an iteration where God remembers it is God or if it's one of the times where God thinks it's something else, separate.

I think my job is to be amazed and the definition of God is mystery. I think all is one; wrinkles in a blanket look across the valley and think they are separate from that wrinkle over there. I am God-part like a star or a bug or a human or trash or gold.

I like the practice of doing nothing with purpose, letting things be exactly as they are and in so doing obtaining and doing all things.

I like the idea that to wrap my arms around the universe I must zoom inward not out.

I think the grand unifying theory of physics that aligns micro and macro systems is spiritual in nature. I think string theory is getting close to being a spiritual theory.

I think ultimately it is pointless and I think that is very good news. I think because life is not serious it is time to be kind and see what I can add to it. I don't think this means I shouldn't be angry or hate or kill or lust. I do not judge the human experience as wrong or right based off morals. I do not begrudge myself or anyone the full experience. I know what I prefer, kindness and love, but hate and anger are no less a part of The Way.

I like football and cooking and reading and mountains. I think we live in a strange time where truth is no longer denied us but rather buried in bullshit so maybe even harder to find.

Hopefully you don't piss all night 😂 💦🌊

Nostr is better during bear markets and non-volatility. It's almost time for the summer price drop and non-volatility, right? Right???

Let’s hope that is the outcome
