BLACK PILL:

- Bitcoin is HARD, you have to learn or RE-learn everything in the first pic.

- Bitcoin is HARDER because it’s alienating.

- Bitcoin is HARDER because we know we are right.

WHITE PILL:

We have done the work and found the HARDEST money in human history.

Man, the survivor’s guilt thing nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs was talking about on the pod yesterday is real. I’m just realizing how much of that I’ve been carrying around, how much I feel like I should have done more for other people to really get bitcoin long ago, when in truth I’ve probably done enough.

It’s time for me to let go and remember that everyone gets bitcoin at the price they deserve.

It’s a hard one - the love I have for my family still wants me to try, in the hope they avoid the hardship you can see in their future.

I’m up to the part in Atlas Shrugged where Dagney crashes the plane into Midas Mulligan’s Hideout and she’s meeting all the men that went on strike. The men went on strike, in part, to not perpetuate the existing system. This thought comes as I ponder deleting my X.

Same. Always thought people who got news via Socials were retarded, now I won’t touch a newspaper and it’s all via socials (mostly YT and X).

Whenever I find myself getting a bit hot under the collar at general stupidity/bad faith arguments, I think "what would Lyn and Jeff do?"

Unfortunately, even after thinking WWLAJD, I often still respond in an impatient and destructive manner (tinged with a bit of humor), but I'm getting better.

Anyway, just wanted to say thank you to both Lyn and Jeff for being real role models and great human beings.

I recently had a big shift in my life that has me feel like I am back from the dead. A second chance as what I had been building for a decade, and then proceeded to fuck-up because I was too stupid to see and value what I had been working on. I was sloppy and thoughtless about much of my approach to life and let that suck me into my own self-aggrandizing bullshit. In short, I was pretty childish about what I was doing as I thought I had made it.

A year and a half later, someway somehow, I got the smallest of shots to fix it. It was a massive risk that I had to stake really everything I had built on. But in that moment when I had to make a move, to do or die; I took a deep breath and took everything in that moment. I knew what it was, what risk I needed to take, and what the cost would be if I had miscalculated. But I knew, as knew more than anything in my soul that I would make it—but only with that risk being taken. It honestly felt like one of the most badass moment of my life because I really showed up for myself with no doubts, lack, or hesitation.

I crave moments like that in my life. They define the peaks and troughs of life, and are the most intense character building moments of my life. It is to choose to be the man in the arena, marred with the blood, sweat, and tear that only those who step into the arena will ever know. It is vastly more rewarding and fulfilling than any life with the cold and timid soul who choose a safe life where nothing is ever at risk.

Fucking legendary, good on you dude
