I love puzzles🥰

The journey doesn’t end here, brother. Far from it. But it is a good checkpoint. Are you enjoying the ride?

Thank you for writing code, cypherpunks. nostr:note143zzcf355r864szwmp0tfan2py9f79mku39qam6tax7fzu32nyuqqk69yg

This why it’s the best cult.

No leader

Makes you rich

Doesn’t have a crack at your wife

Solid cult

Bull markets can be more strenuous and disorienting than bear markets. Tread lightly, don't do anything stupid, don't lose your mind, and try your best to remain calm and focused. It's relatively easy to "stay humble and stack sats" in a bear market. It's harder in the bull, especially the first part. That said, don't forget to take care of yourself and make sure to enjoy the ride.

Grateful to be on this journey with ya'll.

Another ATH, another round of “hey remember that bitcoin you gave me in 2020?”

They can't let the world figure out that cancer is the body's reaction to life threating pathogenic infections.

#Ivermectin, #Fenbendazole, and #Doxycyline could quite literally collapse the cancer industry, not to mention thwart the depopulation program initiated under covid.

Might want to get some, just in case it catches on...

Wish I hadn't ignored every single girlfriend for15 years and started a face skincare routine earlier 😆

What is the main driver of single parenthood?

I think that single parenthood is a result of fiat culture, Bitcoin is the antidote to fiat, so as the fiat culture erodes and is replaced by Bitcoin culture, single parenthood will likely decrease.

I’m pretty sure ChatGPT offered a better response to what is bitcoin than 99% of people can give for the everyday person:

“…

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that allows peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries like banks or governments. It was introduced in 2009 by an anonymous person or group using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

Key Features of Bitcoin:

1. Decentralized: Bitcoin operates on a distributed ledger called the blockchain, maintained by a network of computers (nodes) worldwide.

2. Limited Supply: There will only ever be 21 million bitcoins, making it deflationary by design.

3. Blockchain Technology: Each transaction is recorded in a block and added to the blockchain in a secure and transparent manner.

4. Anonymity: Bitcoin transactions do not require personal information, but they are pseudonymous; all transactions are publicly visible on the blockchain but tied to wallet addresses, not real identities.

5. Mining: New bitcoins are created through a process called mining, where computers solve complex mathematical problems to validate transactions and secure the network.

How is Bitcoin Used?

• As a Currency: For buying goods and services, though its adoption for this purpose varies.

• As an Investment: Many see Bitcoin as “digital gold,” used as a store of value or speculative investment.

• For Transfers: Used to transfer money quickly across borders, often with lower fees than traditional systems.

Bitcoin’s value and use cases depend on factors like market demand, regulation, and technological developments.

I'm done with the carnivore diet. 🐄

I defeated carb addiction, and boosted my testosterone with lifestyle changes, in 5 months.

Long read:

I'm currently 5 months into a cut, working on reducing body fat. Before that, I ate a carnivore diet for 5 years, paleo/keto since 2011.

I agreed to add 60g of carbs pre-workout at the start of my cut, per my trainer. Also 1g protein/lb body weight, with fat for the remaining calories.

Carb addiction is something I battled my entire life. Moderation was impossible for me - the cravings were the worst! Keto and carnivore diets can be lifesaving for people with this issue.

That said, I still couldn't lose stubborn body fat, so I was willing to make changes.

The cut was going great initially, but my energy levels dropped off a couple months in. I felt like a zombie. I knew at some point it could happen, and I know hormones are impacted by a cut.

I had blood work done pre-cut, and my total testosterone was 575ng/dL. Normal for a mid-40s man, and I always felt great & healthy. No complaints!

10 weeks later: total T dropped to 205 ng/dL. 😲

My body was telling me something needed to change.

For the first time in nearly 15 years, I switched to a high carb diet. I started eating 165g carbs per day, timed around pre & post workout meals.

My weight skyrocketed ~10lbs, even with only 1885 calories/day. Most of that was likely water weight, but my workouts at the gym started progressing at crazy levels, likely because of increased muscle growth.

Even so, it felt bad seeing that scale number shoot up when I'm trying to *lose* weight. I rolled with it, understanding that body recomposition can take many months.

By the end of November I felt incredible. Energy through the roof, huge mood improvements, etc. The carbs were working! So I decided to get more blood work done. The results?

Total testosterone jumped to 1005 ng/dL. Free testosterone 205.2 pg/mL. 🤯

This...WAS a surprise, to say the least. WOW!

My long break from carbs helped overcome the addiction and cravings. For the first time I can moderate these foods with ease. This is the biggest win so far, and I've had a lot of W's recently.

My perfect diet down the road (post-cut), will still be heavy on beef, but also foods like fruit & honey. Never processed garbage.

It took a long time to fix this issue, but it's real growth to be able to have a healthy relationship with carbs. I still have a ways to reach my current goal, and lots of building to do after that, but I thought I'd share this interesting development.

Can't say I expected my total T to drop 50%, and then nearly 5x within a few months, like it was the #Bitcoin price chart. 😂

(FYI: all blood work took place early AM in a fasting state)

The more authoritarian governments become, the more popular Nostr will be.

My Apple Music replay for 2024 def shows my excessive listening habits 🤣

WTF do people do with this trash these days?

Seriously how am I supposed to turn this into sats?
