Iāll let you know later. Last time I didnāt get zapped but today I was already generous, so weāll see. :) my first #zapathon coming
Wen #zapathon? I am GMT +2 (Prague).
New book dropped today
Last year I started digging into the IMF and World Bank a little bit and was surprised that there were so few approachable books on the topic
This led me to keep digging, which led to a massive rabbit hole of archived essays and reports, interviews, and discontinued books going back 70 years all the way to the creation of the institutions at the end of WWII
What I started to realize as I learned ā which became the thesis of the book ā is that the IMF and World Bank actually exploit poor countries, they do not help them
This has mostly been achieved by working with dictators and corrupt officials to plunge emerging market countries into debt they can never pay back
Western lenders get paid back plus interest, and benefit from a massive economic engineering where entire societies are re-architected to suit the needs of rich nations instead of achieving industry and sovereignty
The Bank and Fund are known as charitable or maybe as flawed but necessary
In reality their operations are straightforwardly neocolonial, and they help subsidize the way of life in the West by depressing wages and looting resources in the global south
The book was a huge wake up call for me, I hope you can find it useful too

Do you have any means to make it available on Amazon.de or something else in Europe? I would love to avoid customs.
Hey, #nostr #plebs, how would YOU react?
Today I took my 1,5y daughter to a playground. On our approach I saw a mother. She was smoking on the bench, her young dog without a leash playing as well - taking piss on every possible place, including child toysā¦
At first, I did nothing, I respect other people and two simple rules:
- live and let live
- your freedom ends when my starts
But eventually the dog find itās way to my girl and jumped right on her. It was not an attack, but she tripped over, sand in her face and eyes, dog jumping in joy on her⦠so she started crying.
At that moment I asked the other parent to leave the place immidiately.
She didnāt listen and sit back on the bench, again pulling out a cigarette from her purse.
I had to insist on her leaving as I was feeling my daughter will be under constant threat and stress from the dog.
She pulled out some idiotic arguments as āwe were here firstā and āthe dog is young, he didnāt knowā¦ā.
Eventually I made them leave, telling her I tried to be tolerant, but enough is enough. But I didnāt feel victourious, quite the opposite actually⦠was I right? Was I wrong? I am sure she could do better, following the rules of public playground or at least watching the dog or have him on the leash⦠Iām just glad that the little girl is not hurt.
Whatās your opinion on this?
Wow. Youāre a generous zapper. That would put you on #1 spot on lot of list I guess. Including mine.
Care to share the e-shop? Iād like to have one as well.
And I should add that Model T is better and now even cheaper than ever (switch to USD and you can fet price like 4.200 CZK) - youāll get Shamir backups and Coinjoin features.
I believe they are going to build a Model One 2.0 first⦠somewhere I heard they want to have a modern ābasic entry modelā. That would mean Model One successor, not Model T.
Hello, #Nostr, did you #stack some #sats today?
#Bitcoin

Iām actually only 98% in #BTC. I still hold some #Cardano from my earliest days in crypto space.
Obviously I am big time in unrealised loss. Should I sell for #Bitcoin now or do you think there is a chance to get a better ADA/BTC ratio than this? Is it possible for ADA to have enough momentum to escape unavoidable death of a shitcoin? Letās talkā¦
Hey! #mostr #plebchain. Post your favorite #Bitcoin artwork. One you own or you just like, doesnāt matter.
I go first.
Obviously itās a #banksy inspired handmade painting from a czech artist. Not something superfancy but I think the message is clear and I love it. š§”
I have it in my study where I do most of the work when Iām on home office.
Letās call this hashtag a #postr, shall we? š
