Hey Riddy.
Welcome (as if I'm part of the official red carpet squad for nostr).
Anyway, it might be the best that can be hoped-for from a decentralized organic system relying on the free consensual interplay of individuals to their networks..
Happy days.
Im happy for you to Donate them to Opensats or similar foundation. 👏
Beware the Is-ness of Being.
this is one of my favorite guides. when you hear your mind say..."This IS bad, or good or terrible or wonderful, be careful. IS Fixes ones perception and stops it from responding to more detailed information.
would love to hear a "Choo Choo, motherf....s"🤣

Seductive...
The siren song of certainty,
That we are finally
Masters of the future
And slayers of humility's constant work.
Turning and tweaking the knobs
Looking back with crystal clarity
The mind balking at the unanswerable question,
As we shine the imaginary glow of our final understanding
Into the farthest edges of a world whose masters are not yet born.
I'm speaking to some game rangers and conservationists soon. I'm needing some references to help explore some ways that bitcoin facilitates and improves this domain. I've got some ideas. love Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers work, need a few more pointers.
Gracias nostr.
I asked one of my readers for a review. Amazon won't let him post because he hasn't spent enough money. Tbh it really touched me and made it feel really worthwhile. I'm posting here first....
"Nell’s pacy, thoughtful romp imagines the disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto (a pseudonym), the presumed philanthropist-genius developer of Bitcoin. Bitcoin – the tech which promises a marriage of innocence and money, a mode of lucre impervious to human stupidity. Nell’s instructive take on this ignorance is made real through his characters, some of whom will disrupt your habit of sleeping when it’s dark. Their crime in a nutshell: the co-option of money by evil. And Satoshi’s cash, seemingly immune to such co-option, has justifiably rattled men in suits. In counterpoint to his take-down of money, Nell riffs rarefied on Bitcoin as an attractor of goodness-writ-large, and perhaps even consciousness itself. The attractor draws the good guys too, and as they are elevated by Satoshi’s quiet authority and presence, they risk more-and-more to midwife the still-vulnerable technology. Nell’s take on the world’s ills, their rootedness in the corruptibility of money, and the power of tech to circumvent this flaw is a heady cocktail, as is his quirky turn of phrase. He weaves some big philosophy into the action, and some strong, relatable characters who find love, courage and clarity as Bitcoin motivates and moves their being. By the end you’ll think differently about the world, about money, and perhaps about Jiu-Jitsu and cryptography. And you’ll hope, hugely, that Satoshi is okay, wherever he may be."

Amazing. that's exactly what I've never wanted. None of our dreams haven't been realized.

I am not grist for your mill.
I am not a cog to be turned.
I am not your second class masked down and cowed.
I am not the product of your empire fantasies.
I am not your eyeballs for hire.
I am not the mouth for your slick trash slush.
I am not your treadmill jogger.
I am not your drugged up, dumbed down and sanitized body.
I am not your arm to be jabbed.
I am not yours to command.
Don't count me in.
I'm opting out.
Aside from what Nostr has taught me about Bitcoin, I’m so fucking grateful to have been introduced to decentralized social media.
Prior to being on nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg , I didn’t really talk about the things I care about on the internet. It felt counterintuitive and dishonest to talk about health on centralized platforms that consciously make us sick.
I’m so thankful that Nostr has given me somewhere to start playing with my voice. It has given me hope and community.
I’m wholly convinced of its ability to create a free, autonomous, creative, and connected global community. A healthier society.
We just need to keep sparking our neighbors’ fires.
I'd be interested.
it feels like a little bit of an inflection point underway on nostr. interesting. Exciting as fuck
primal and snort
I'd wholeheartedly agree. My contribution is to fill in the silence before the question "Why Bitcoin?".
I've written what I'm calling Bitcoins adventure textbook. An action adventure novel to Trojan horse the orange pill into fertile minds.

Maybe the distorting gravity of fiat inheritance is lost of the degradation of character and value that occurs with a lot of inheritance situations.
I tend to feel that inherting sound money, along with a deep understanding of proof of work and other principles that make it sound... will allow my children to stay true to themselves and their deeper character .
"You don't change Bitcoin. Bitcoin changes you."
I have felt this firsthand, being pulled and pushed, bullied by Bitcoin. Stepping up. Speaking up. It's a small fractal of the hero's journey, playing out day by day.
Changing long held patterns and habits that dont really serve me...
What is the hero's journey if not holding yourself to the fire of your discomfort and growing from that?
Bitcoin offers a field of value and purpose acquisition that is
-individual
-emergent
-engaged
-enhanced.
Feel it for yourself...
