You can try to find ways to support solid bitcoin companies, open source projects in the ecosystem, or devs with the skills you have.

Then there's indirect ways to get involved, such as joining the bitcoin guerrilla marketing team by slaping some nostr:nprofile1qqsrmqhg7mxxczt9gjln8ey8tgpl2cq2elm7c3n7z59pe3m395s5mjgppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0ymxesv stickers and signs around town.

Does this make us all boomers? I'm suddenly feeling responsible for all the world's problems.

My off the cuff theory is that dancing is deeply tied to localized culture (often ethnic culture). Dancing was a major part of community life for ages, but with modernity came the fragmentation, even decimation, of localized community life. How many people work, shop, socialize, and go to church primarilly in their immediate community? How man people know their neighbors? How many people deeply engage in the social and civic life of their town? How many people receive an inheritance of community knowledge, which would include HOW to dance?

I'm guessing this began post industrial revolution when men began leaving the home for work. Cars, television, women entering the corporate workforce, and young people incentivised to move to major cities all likely accelerated the death of dancing as well.

All this said, there are still subcultures across the US where people still get together to dance. I've been in some. Lindy and swing communities, churches that have balls and dancing functions where singles can meet, etc.

I have dark mode set on my nostr client. Does that count?

Yeah if it is just the wallet exploding, it would be more of a nuisance than a danger. Who is carrying their hardware wallet on their person all the time?

Keep your keys separate and restore to another device.

As a people, we have grown spiritually fat, slothful, and, in many regions, apostate. When a people turn from Christ, they turn from life to death. They no longer value life. So having no children is a consequence of spiritual rebellion. This is broasly true and works itself out more granularly and in unique ways on individual levels.

I also recognize people have legitimate struggles (unable to find a spouse, married later in life, fertility issues, etc.). I'm not intending to hypercritically target every individual.

Pragmatically, we have used technology and law to sever sex from childbearing, sex from marriage, and marriage from covenant (prenups, no fault divorce, etc.).

Monetary debasement is certainly relevant but a secondary factor.

We are so back
