Interesting how the word physician is a combination of “physic” and “magician”

Imagine you have a choice, and your choice determines the future of humanity... You can let 99% of people die, and the remaining 1% evolve greater intelligence and capabilities and build a new world and new humanity ; or you can save everyone but humanity doesn't evolve and we remain retarded for a million years.

Which do you choose?

BREAKING: #Bitcoin is experiencing its largest ETF outflows since inception.

Boomer tears fueling the next leg up. Thanks for the liquidity. 🧑‍🦽‍➡️

i am congenitally curious, so knowledge especially from impulsive experimentation is constantly being acquired... and in my business a high level of knowledge is required as is a reasonable amount of daring to experiment with something that seems like a better solution than what is already known

and knowledge is a one-way process, you can't go back to not knowing, so yeah, it often times is painful both in acquiring the knowledge or simply remembering it when something you see triggers associations

but i wouldn't choose another way, i like this process, and may i never stop so long as i am breating and living

sophistication and complexities are red flags of bad faith behaviour and people with narcissistic personalities

simple things tend to be the mark of the wise and humble

beginners, who lack wisdom, tend to overcomplicate things as well, because they haven't reached the point where they have a sufficiently complete model of what something should be, and they very often find they have to smash it up and start again

it's a subtle distinction between the errors of naivete and the errors of sophistry, but the proper judgement of either is the same - this is something that should not be trusted

Let me know if I get this right?

Some women whore around through their 20's and 30's and when they've lost their flowering age they're ready to settle with a "good guy" but expect him to share what he's accumulated in 30 years to an extend of her receiving half of whatever he has accumulated throughout his life if she splits after a couple of years?

Yeah, right. Keep on dreaming.

This is the most powerful cheat code for sense-making that I know of. It explains lockdowns, masks, vaxx mass formation, Bitcoin derangement syndrome, veganism, on and on and on. Once you disregard (or even invert) the opinions of witches and soyboys, sense-making becomes extremely easy.

meraki (μεράκι) /meh-RAH-kee/ n.

A modern Greek word describing the soul, creativity, or love put into something; the essence of yourself that you infuse into any activity or pursuit.

For example, it describes the feeling when a song overtakes you emotionally and moves you to dance, sing, or express yourself fully. It represents doing anything with passion, from the heart, and with absolute devotion—whether it's work, art, cooking, or any other activity.

"When you do things from your soul, you feel a river of joy moving in you."

— Rumi

Being a Female Executive in a Male-Dominated Industry Isn’t for the Weak.

I don’t navigate; I dominate. I set the standard, make precision moves, and lead with unshakable vision.

Bitcoin sharpened my mindset: sovereignty, resilience, proof of work. Power isn’t given; it’s taken. I own my decisions, my outcomes, my future.

No permission. No limitations. Just execution.

Bitcoin changes you. 🫡🔥

oh yeah i got over those things ages back, 2021 i bought a condenser mic and bought a vintage harman kardon amp and onkyo speakers for my PC so i coud zoom without looking like a cyborg or feeling like a retard

but i'm talking about almost everything -

i bought a magnifying glass that the lens assembly just falls out with minimal force...

the endless stream of "mops" and "brooms" made with delicate aluminium tubes that can barely stand up to the amount of force that a 2 year old could exert on it

the retarded torches that don't have a simple momentary on (basically all of them) and the predominant type that have three cycle clicks where you get bright, dim and flickering, for those panic merchants who are to scared to walk along a dark country road without blinding the cars driving past

an egg lifter spatula thing that has a wood handle that is glued to the plastic instead of spending a few minutes to add a simple spring pressure tabs to the end of the plastic parts and gouging a small divot on each side so the thing just clicks in

household wiring for lights that uses maybe 0.5A capable multistrand shit-copper wire and the owner of this place didn't even consider this when buying a whole array of shitty LED light fittings that are designed to use solid core, 8A capable electrical wires

washing machines that barely last 5 years and develop short circuits that blow up the safety switch panel on the whole house and then not putting a separate switchboard panel in the apartment that they are renting out, and then bitching me out and basically refusing to pay me back my security deposit because their fucking place was so shit that i couldn't put normal fucking incandescent lightbulbs into the light fittings, because they are literally made out of plastic that isn't rated to handle more than about 40 degrees C without melting

and apparently, on that last point, it's now "law" in portugal, or maybe europe, that you can't sell normal light fittings that work with up to 100W lights for actual room lighting, for your safety, i'm sure

of course all of this is really just trying to find some way to deflect from the fact that the erosion of purchasing power continues to accelerate in decline and push that "responsibility" onto the people who aren't involved in running the fiat racket

and meainwhile also slathering EVERYTHING with the word "responsible" and nagging karen shit about recycling, which actually doesn't happen because recycling plastic is rubbish, and even the rubbish itself is toxic waste, and it's toxic waste even before it gets out of the factory let alone the "food" put in it and then we could start talking about the travesty that the food is becoming as well

so over it, i can barely go through a day without bumping into something that reminds me again what a shithole society the entire "first world" is becoming so quickly

Serpentine Sedation.

Sleepily Seeping Sentiment.

Slithering. Sneaking. Seething.

Seeking Solitude. Slow. Steady.

Superfluous Serendipity.

i'm so sick of fiat world

everything i buy is either already broken or breaks within weeks of starting to use it

anyone who isn't noticing this just has a memory problem

### Stoic practice involves waking up every day, knowing that it might be the day that some dipshit family member or friend:

* Buys a shitcoin

* Sells their bitcoin

* Buys a piece of shit hardware wallet

* what else?

NASA just dropped the closest image ever taken of Jupiter 🤯

I don't care about people hurting or even dying by their own will or stupidity. But that's just me. I doesn't have to change your own values, morality and choices 😉
