After Donald Trump's victory in 2016, Boris Johnson's victory in 2019, and Javier Milei's victory in 2023, there seem so be a trend of "don't bet against the firebrand with the unusual hair".

If I was an establishment politician, I'd be terrified if I had an opponent like that given this hit rate now. Or if I was advising an establishment politician, I'd advise them to have something more distinctive. Like my first advice to Biden would be "I mean, at least grow the beard out dude". And I'm kind of shocked that none of the Republican candidates have beards. Ted Cruz deciding to grow a beard has been a great appearance decision but nobody else seems to be doing it.

We should get the world on a #bitcoin Standard before Artificial General Intelligence arrives. People should control this development, not rich people.

Yes, it’s for you

Agreed.

Technology is not magic in the supernatural sense.

Though, there are some interesting parallels between programming and historical conceptions of magic.

A spell is a written code that must written or spoken exactly to the letter, or it won't work. In magic, you are supposedly compelling unseen entities to carry out your commands. Some magical spells have instructions of going around in a circle a number of times, similar to what a loop does in programming. We even use some terminology from magic in programming, such as Invoke in C#.

Writers are basically just slow rappers.

We just try to add more detail to what has already been said, and likely with beat.

Magic is real & wonderful, but it's not unexplainable things that violate the laws of reality. Magic is in all the seemingly impossible things that people working together make possible.

Something as simple as a number 2 pencil can't be made by a single human being, but it can be made by many humans working together, & made in such a great abundance that they are nearly free. The key to making magic possible is economic coordination. Given what people have made with weak money, while heavily burdened by taxes & regulations, imagine what sort of a world #Bitcoin will allow people to create 😊

Young people are woke; they have been trained to see the world through a marxist lenz with opressors and opressed. They believe that Hamas is a freedom movement against the oppressors (”and the fucking zionists”) Israel.

So young people in general are brainwashed sheep who cannot think for themselves, and who consume the maoist world view at the cost of Western civilization.

Last night someone made a whole new account on a dating app to be able to bitch me out for blocking them

the "men do better challenge" is not looking good
