The reason we have sex-exclusive spaces is the same reason we clothe ourselves in the first place. The treatment of people as things is as old as humanity, and clothing and privacy prevents the abuse of the other. You may not be worried, but I think that may be because you do not fear being treated as a piece of flesh to be ogled. Women being the weaker of the sexes are more vulnerable and instinctually aware of that danger. It's why sexually aggressive females are either creepy, enigmatic, or at least unexpected.
Action is therapy for men. Achieving victory in arduous challenge is therapy for men. Sitting in a room and talking about their bad behaviors is anti-therapy. Modern psychology often completely misunderstands men and their true needs because it treats the sexes as interchangeable. And that's why modern schooling is more successful for girls, and why women more frequently graduate from college (especially if you exclude STEM fields).
I love you 5BTC!
Excellent definition!
"Religion" is the just response to the highest good, that is, God. True religion is an intimate relationship with God.
I DON'T KNOW BUT YELLING IS FUN SO I'M JUST GOING TO KEEP MAKING LOUD NOISES!!!
It’s time to update the system. #Bitcoin (and that’s it.) https://video.nostr.build/c44110ba5c5e87e69de0c663e235c19185e22aa7165006c1efcaba2aeb3318cf.mp4
Who made this?
This place is pretty quiet.

Privacy is an unnecessary luxury, personal property doesn't exist and is a thing of the past, and there is no war in Ba Sing Se.
Requiring the public to expose themselves to become easily searchable is literally a violation of the fourth amendment. The same goes with requiring bitcoin to be custodial-only, since that makes it easily seizible.
There's a fine but very important line between a peaceful protest and a riot. I wish the police knew the difference between those in the summer of 2020. Did they know the difference last night?

The exit tax
A critical component for expats to consider when renouncing US citizenship is the Exit Tax.
Essentially, it is a tax on the net unrealized gain on your worldwide assets as if you sold them the day before expatriation.
This tax applies to individuals who meet any of the following criteria:
- Average annual net income tax for the five years ending before the date of expatriation exceeds a specified threshold amount. (150-190k yearly last few years.)
- Net worth is $2 million or more on the date of expatriation.
- Failure to certify compliance with US tax obligations for the five years preceding expatriation.
Even if you are a covered expat, you just have to pay a capital gains at the regular rate for all of your assets as if they were sold 1 day before you escaped.
It's another reason Bitcoin needs to exist. The tyrant will pursue you as you escape.
We need a complete governmental overhaul in the US. The federal government has taken for itself too much power and demands far too much from its citizens as if they are our caretakers and is our master. American freedom as our forefathers envisioned is a fading dream.
Everywhere. I miss that place.
If you like Mexican food, there's basically no better place for it. Chuy's is good. Serrano's is also great.
I like rediscovering artists to find they didn't stop making music.
I am actually rethinking my opinion of the world, now.
Note: I ran the numbers two ways, and I think because of some reporting issues they had in 2020, some missing data is causing a moderate error. If you multiply left, then average, it comes out to 108% total over the 7-years, but averaging and then taking it to the 7th power, you get 92%. It does make sense that the error is in the direction.
Inflation has been roughly +11.5% per year since 2017 according to ChapwoodIndex.com, which reports the unadjusted actual cost and price fluctuation of the top 150 items on which Americans spend their after-tax dollars in the 50 largest cities in the nation.
I don't think we noticed it until wages stagnated in 2020, but prices have literally doubled since 2017.
Some maths will reveal +92% average total inflation from 2017-2023 and a projected +122% to now, meaning a $1.00 item from Jan 2017 will cost on average $2.22 now in Apr/May 2024.
