“You…are…a particle of God himself.”
Behave accordingly.
I read The Black Company series years ago when I was in college and decided to return to them recently with the announcement that Glen Cook would be adding new books to the series.
Most people seem to hate this last one, Port of Shadows, but I thought it was a fun return and found it a quick and easy read with an interesting payoff/conclusion.
Sprinkling in some gritty fantasy books lately has really improved my pace and volume of reading. I usually am reading something heavy or complex (at least to me) so having other books to balance that has been really helpful. Sometimes mixing it up and revisiting things you enjoyed from the past is exactly what is needed.
This is like watching a video game - insane game, especially after the earlier games
Every year we are fortunate enough to sell out of honey quickly, but I try to keep a few jars during the off-season in case someone calls or as gifts.
It’s always good to keep a little extra for the new year. I’m hoping to make 2026 quieter - more about the actual world than the digital world that is screaming about things I can’t control.
Here’s to the amazing little bees that create this honey. Im going to try and do the same myself and turn this year into more sats and more awesome life experiences
Maybe my favorite post of all time about anything.
Truth is the rarest of commodities nowadays
I bought more Bitcoin today. Highly recommend.
When a female mentions she is/has done shadow work I never can decide if I should be turned on or terrified.
Read Hoppe. Read Hayek. Read Menger. Read Spooner. Read Sowell. Read Ron Paul. Read Seneca & Epictetus. Read Maslow. Read Arendt. Read Dostoyevsky & Nietzsche. Read Camus. Read Mises. Read Rand. Read Mencken (twice).
Sometimes I have a mental barrier to reading, but I find whenever I force myself to sit and read Epictetus, I feel instantly better and more calm. I wonder why I don’t read it twice a day honestly. It is genuinely therapeutic.
Democracy is simply delayed tyranny
Also, don’t get overly myopic. Just because it makes sense to you, remember it doesn’t make sense to most people. Be patient and understanding with those learning and questioning - don’t be a dick. Also, there are other avenues to creating wealth. Exploit them and buy more Bitcoin. Bitcoin can teach you a lot about yourself and the world if you let it - explore new detours of thought about economies, self ownership, power dynamics, belief and skepticism - enjoy the journey of learning.
Remember that most of owning Bitcoin is just living your life
