I’ve been using nostr:nprofile1qqsfnz2sqsflkatdssmeztxr90s8xrd7r07xkhfwaa6eu9zkcguljpgpzamhxue69uhkuenyvghxummnwa5x2un99e3k7mgprpmhxue69uhkc6t8dp6xu6twvaex2mrp0yhxxmmd40nff6 for the last year and it works well

Actually been a key learning experience

It never crossed my mind that X or IG had to store the data somewhere in order to share or post a video or photo etc

Reminder: if the product is “free” you’re the product

I've thought about using peer tube + nostr. Seems better than using YouTube and subjecting my audience to crypto gambling parlors.

I was gifted my health back 100% for the first time in about 2 weeks on Christmas. What a gift and a reminder not to take it all for granted.

Also my mom zapped me. Another great gift.

Merry Xmas cassone hope youre having an epic time thx for the love 🫂💜. I actually believe it is an evolution. Not a transformation. An evolution bitcoin helps every human being undergo which will lead to evolution of humanity to the next stage.

If your boys haven’t watched The Worlds Fastest Indian movie, you should fix that this week.

GM nostr 💜🫂

Sharing something personal…

so you get the chance to better understand me.

I fucking hate Xmas.

I’m traumatized.

Every. Single. Year.

On that day…

All my friends were with their moms. Their dads. Their families.

Exchanging gifts.

Giving & receiving love.

Meanwhile…

Every. Single. Fucking. Xmas.

I was alone & lonely.

No mom.No dad.No fucking family.

No shitty presents.

No love.

Just me.

Sitting alone in a nearby trash McDonald’s…

crying.

Without money.Without food. Without warmth.

That leaves scars.

Anyway…

Today I feel proud & deeply grateful.

Because on this very day

I built my own family.

A real one.

A loving one.

And today I get to create an epic day for my daughter…

so she never has to experience what I did.

That’s healing.

That’s breaking cycles.

That’s real wealth.

Stay blessed & grateful my friends.

What a beautiful day to be alive.

Merry Xmas chosen brothers&sisters 🫂

Accelerate.

Keen for a podcast?

I hope everyone is having a good eve to Christmas Eve. All hell has broken loose in my house/life. Just taking a moment to say hello Nostr!

I once thought that the point of life was purely enjoyment and self actualization. I’m finally coming to understand that it is more about graceful endurance in service to others, in spite of the evil in the world and artificial, imposed challenges. And in doing so, the glorification of God.

Maybe it’s capitulation. Maybe however, I have been an entitled fool for measuring my success and limiting my happiness by the yardstick of the attainment of worldly things and the achievement of personal goals.

The world looks hopeful and salvageable. May my example of service today inspire others to make it so.

I've been slumping on my fitness this past month.

It got cold, so I stopped my daily biking. Then I got sick, so I wasn't hitting my basement gym either. Then even when I recovered I just wasn't doing it. Best I was doing was walking outside to get some sun and fresh air.

Yesterday I got back in. Stretches, push-ups, squats, bag-punching, deadlifts, dumbbell routines, and a few treadmill sprints. I'm super sore today, and my cardio is shit at the moment, but it feels great.

If you've been slumping a bit this winter, I'm right there with you! Use today as a catalyst to get back in. You'll be glad you did.

My taste changed after covid and hasn’t been the same. Real sugar tastes ok, but it’s all the artificial sugars that make food taste weird. So since I never know what I’m gonna get… like will that cookie taste good or feel like a mouthful of hammered shit on my tastebuds??? I just stay away anymore. I don’t wanna get rugged 😂 oddly, I ate a sugar free cookie one day not knowing it was sugar free and that was yummy 😋

Everything is a PSYOP until proven otherwise

My ability to avoid sugar is on point. My ability to record it via nostr:npub1vygzr642y6f8gxcjx6auaf2vd25lyzarpjkwx9kr4y752zy6058s8jvy4e, however… I gotta do better at recording all the things! 🏋️‍♂️

Nostr everything.

What a year. Just lost my father.

I hope he finds the peace he deserves.

Committed to improving my environment over the next year. We got a piano for the girls. Tiger oak, quite pretty and 100+ years old. The sheet music it came with worth the whole cost of the piano. Check out the savage garden cover there. And cabinets painted in laundry. Took 4 coats of navy to make it look even and deep enough in color after 2 coats of primer. But ceiling paint trim pain and wall paint next before the slate floors go in.

After 3.5 years, and 19 times packing up and moving house

Last night I slept at the property we purchased

Feels amazing

To know that it’s ours

Sending good vibes all

I hope you’re kicking the goals you set out to achieve

Big lessons along the way

Shorting physical real estate was harder than expected

Rental contacts

Landlords

Mould

All sorts

In summary “you can’t live in a Bitcoin”

Even if it does wonders for your purchasing power

Cheers

Was quoted 14k for my side yard project. No thanks. I’ll do the work.

Grass ripped out, inserted bark, planted Red Baron Peach tree and much more to come. Just do the work yourself. This is not my trade, but I’ll figure it out.

The minds you seek on Nostr aren’t valuable because they’re search engines. They’re valuable because they’ve lived something you haven’t.

Think about it: when someone shares hard won knowledge here, you’re not just getting information. You’re getting the scar tissue. The late nights. The failures that taught them what the textbooks couldn’t. You’re getting wisdom that was expensive to acquire, offered freely because they remember what it was like not to know.

Their expertise isn’t some polished, sanitized output. It’s inseparable from their specific journey, their unique vantage point, their particular blind spots. And yes, even their biases and limitations. That’s not a bug. That’s what makes it real. That’s what makes it useful in ways a perfect answer never could be.

Because here’s the thing: you don’t just need correct information. You need to understand how someone got there. You need the context, the nuance, the “yeah, but watch out for this one thing that nobody tells you.” You need their beautiful human incompleteness, because that’s where the actual learning lives.

An AI tool can give you answers instantly. But it can’t tell you what it felt like to be wrong for two years before figuring it out. It can’t say “I thought that too, until…” It can’t share the wisdom that only comes from being human, from struggling, from changing your mind.

Use the AI when it serves you. Let it handle the obvious stuff, the quick lookups, the pattern matching, the coding etc. But when you’re here for the real thing? When you’re trying to actually understand something that matters?

Seek the humans. Ask the questions. Build the relationships.

Because wisdom has always been relational. It’s not transmitted. It’s shared. And that makes all the difference.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I’ll find you a good documentary as well. They are less popular but there are a few I’d recommend

Oh man. There’s so many. Lol. I’ll do some work for you

You are in the right place Doc.

The progressive left fears Bitcoin because it eliminates their capacity for redistributive control through monetary policy, while the establishment right cannot reconcile decentralized sovereignty with their instinct for institutional hierarchy. Both mistake their dependency on fiat intermediation for political principle, unable to recognize that monetary sovereignty precedes all other freedoms.

Happy Saturday. 🍻 Cheers Nostr
