Also…dialogue these days lead to violence when you no longer want to dialogue.
Do it…also nostr:npub1n0stur7q092gyverzc2wfc00e8egkrdnnqq3alhv7p072u89m5es5mk6h0 also has been stepping up their game. Been using for most of the notes today.
I still can’t zap you btw. Fix it. I wanna zap
That’s great. I appreciate it. I do my best to pump out thought provoking material as it comes to me.
A book though, that would take me some time to think about something that would be worth my time and yours
FBI: “We’ve dismantled a dangerous criminal enterprise running illegal sports betting operations.”
Also FBI: works for a government that runs a $36 trillion casino where they bet your tax money on wars, corporate bailouts, and programs that never materialize
At least the bookies pay out when you win.

FBI…hard at work on such pressing issues of our time.
We literally invented computers to compute things for us, then got mad when they computed the wrong things, so we built a system where the computer does… nothing. The “algorithm” is “ask humans.” We’ve come full circle and it’s beautiful.
Next up, blockchain based abacus…
Options. You have to love options.

I’m about to post something intellectual and captivating for an audience that prides itself on being uncapturable.
You know the game…If I try too hard, you’ll smell the effort and dismiss it. If I don’t try hard enough, you’ll scroll past. If I’m clever, you’ll call it pretentious. If I’m simple, you’ll call it shallow.
Everyone here wants to be intellectually stimulated, but admitting you were intellectually stimulated feels like admitting you weren’t already thinking that thought yourself.
So here’s my actual move….I’m not performing for you. I’m performing with you. This post is a mirror. Your reaction to it (whether you like it, zap it, boost it, ignore it, or write a 400-word reply about why I’m wrong) reveals more about your relationship with intellectual performance than anything I could say.
The hardest groups to perform for are the ones who forgot they’re still an audience.
What’s your move?
Well said, I think we’re in the process of that reprogramming here.
“I’ve been busy” has become our culture’s socially acceptable way of saying “I exist and have value” without having to prove it or be vulnerable about what we’re actually feeling.
We’ve turned busyness into a virtue signal, a reflexive shield against the discomfort of admitting we’re just… living. Existing. Maybe even struggling.
The truth? Most people saying they’re “busy” either aren’t, or they’ve confused motion with progress, or they just don’t trust you enough to say what’s real.
Busyness is the new fine.
The irony is that when you stop performing busyness and start being honest, you often connect with people in ways that actually matter. And that’s when you realize the “busy” script wasn’t protecting you from judgment, it was protecting you from being relational.
What’s your instinct on this? Do you guys find yourself defaulting to “busy” too, or have you found a way around it?
The only way. Agreed
Exactly. You’re not waiting for permission to live. You’re building, cultivating, serving. That’s the posture. The urgency you feel isn’t anxiety, it’s clarity about what actually matters.
That’s a really good framing. Unlearning the zero sum view of energy is huge. I wonder how much of that mindset comes from the industrial model of work, the idea that effort always drains instead of enriches. What helped you start to unlearn that?
