Storytime! 🕰️

So I had to sort out my #taxes for the year and I had an extra line item this time around. I normally keep a little bit of cash in a savings account just for rainy days, liquidity issues and as a buffer so I never have to dip into my Bitcoin

It collects a bit of interest which claims to offset the core CPI locally but clearly doesn't offset the growth in m2, so you're already robbing me, just a little slower than usual.

Normally the tax man didn't bother about it, but as the South African Rand devalues faster and faster the numbers get bigger despite the relative purchasing power not budging much. Now the figures are raised to a point where they want me to pay in 13% of those annual interest payments for the year in taxes too lol

Now I see why people don't save for a down payment for stuff and just take on these stupid high interest rate loans, you're punished either way

If I wasn't in #Bitcoin man I would be so pissed, the normies are really getting shafted

Bitcoin and AI are going to compete for electricity supply, and we know what's currently preferred. One threatens hegemony, the other assists. The question is whether Bitcoin mining will generate more value, watt for watt, than AI can produce or recover.

Holy crap, I discovered today that people are literally scared of — and wearing masks to protect from — the “Monkey Pox Epidemic.”

They are legit scared and believe the media is telling them about something important and relevant to their lives.

It’s weird how totally disconnected I am from that dumb shit now. I legit thought it was nothing but memes.

Humans seem to build more shit, when they have babies to build for.

TYPO ON MY TAGGING #HAMRADIO
