The left has been warning about this for the last decade and all we got was “stop buying avocado toast”. Sound money doesn’t fix unequal distribution of opportunity and economic power.

I am old enough to remember a time. when if you complained about $15 an hour people would scream at you something something about cardamom lattes and avocado toast. I guess it’s good we’re beyond that?

Don’t fuck around with elections

When folks say “oh we just UASF if the miners start to act badly” but they’re all still on Twitter.

Can you catch Nazi from listening to a song Rolling Stone calls “right wing”? Asking for a friend.

No explanation. “Violated terms of service”.

I was in Canada at a math conference. No explanation given.

This is just stochastic extortion.

Nice to see the digs on RFK nostr:note1uyuq5va5njsk7nqgyfxjkzj4dk2hm6wnuq6nzj2gls6ecsel8mwq406nyy

Is expeller pressed canola oil bad

Why are they worse? Convince me I should continue to use my US bank rewards visa card to buy dogfood at PetCo instead of using a CBDC.

We can now resume our “security budget is doomed discussion”

I’ll go

Miners will be so squeezed for profits after the 2028 halving they will be forced to consolidate to the point where selfish mining becomes feasible

We can be certain that the 600 (6000 if they pay) tweet limit applies to China, France , Turkey, Joe Biden, even if they ask really nicely and coercively. nostr:note19mkj3x8drkwfv8ch9a6agu4aq42d6zecnmzyt0l5canudxlys4jq69nm07

Once it was fully clear to the public that the book was available without purchasing it from Amazon, the game was over. It completely dropped off the Amazon charts. It is doing better than Limpwar in the sales category though.

The value of divergent opinions is overrated in some circles and underrated in others, unfortunately. A lot of folks say controversial things so that they can get “censored” and make themselves some sort of a free-speech martyr. The trick of being a good Internet citizen these days is to be able to:

1. Calmly, and cleanly debate people with the wrong ideas assuming good faith, while

2. Knowing when it’s not in good faith, these people are just trolls and it’s not worth your time.

It is possible to direct naturally contrarian people into productive uses of their brain that don’t involve Nazi nonsense.

Yeah, this whole thing is really bizarre to me, like all of it. There’s people who seem to spend most of their lives obsessed with the fact that the Nazis are taking over. But I really have no idea what they’re talking about. There are a few people out there who are trolls and like to take oppositional or contrarian viewpoints, and ask stupid questions like “mmm and how do you KNoW all this about the holocaust?” and they do seem to be succeeding and getting outsized attention. I don’t think they’re going to be disabused by facts, I think a better tactic is to validate the right to ask questions while basically ignoring them or distracting them. This business of making every platform with a conservative on it a Nazi bar is not an effective tactic I’m told that because I’m a white heterosexual male I’m not exposed to the harassment, which I can believe, but recruitment? I’m not going to try to invalidate the lived experiences of anyone who has been harassed but I’m not seeing anything like Nazi recruitment.
