If this is the start of a new era of organ transplantation, where we can use animal organs to salvage, sustain and save human lives, I dont know how to take this in.

I feel like Satoshi was thinking about situations like the ones you've overcome for yourself and others. Supporting your efforts and your work is one of the best ways to honor his legacy. 💪🥰❤️

My 39.

Enjoying the moments of my life:

❤️‍🔥 A moment of weakness: the hardest memories in my 15 years of human rights work are the meetings of families with released political prisoners.

I thought that after having had over 100 such meetings, I could be less emotional.

I can't. An image from my childhood of first losing hope from the lawlessness of the regime towards my family, and then the endless joy of being able to hug my brother, who was released after being kidnapped from the hospital, comes back to me every time.

But every time you feel a wave of joy at the happiness in the eyes of family members in hugs with their loved ones, your pain disappear. You witness the steely hurt in the eyes, the facial expressions from reliving the nightmares of the political prisoners who were released. You see the love that sustained them and helped them through this journey. That moments move you forward and stimulate your work when others disbelieve that it’s possible. Everything is possible.

🧡A moment of strength: I remember vividly the losses, the experienced ups full of love and the painful downs on the way to 39 years. Our love, our feelings and beliefs are getting stronger when we experienced ups and downs, when we fight for our beloved.

I remember the realisation of the moment, how life can be cut short in a matter of days. Everyone you love and everything you love can be shattered. What remains is the memory and the belief that you can overcome, you will love again. You used to say it to other politically repressed who had such experience, and than that moment came to you… you have to listen no matter how hard it was to say.

⚡️Importance of learning: You learn fast how important it is to live in the moment and how important it is to be able to first defeat your own consciousness and the minds of those around you, then the winning in the physical world is a matter of technique. Then comes the moment of power, not only yours but those who are with you in this struggle.

6 years later with this approach you can not only stop but defeat two of the three authoritarian regimes using the whole machinery of power against you and your family, your organisation.

🫶 How to fight back: Yep, it's possible. I have been able to walk this path because of my experience in defending the politically persecuted, friends, my brother who know how to share not only moments of joy but also how to hold a strike. Being all financially isolated, we were able to resist and defeat the attacks of the three regimes thanks to #bitcoin.

#SatoshiNakomoto is unlikely to read this post, but that doesn't mean I want to give him a huge thank you. For being able to stand up, to save the lives of those for whom human rights are not just a set of derring-do phrases and "fresh regret".

How do you feel at 39? Or how do you think you will feel at 39?

Good morning

GM. My parents met at The St Pats Day Parade in 1960. Have a Happy St Patricks Day! ☘️ Sláinte ☕

Yeah, it can be an advantage, but still sort of irritating.

I have always worked in male-dominated industries. These types of prejudices are not unusual and it is curious how easily they can be turned to an advantage. It's easier to stand out when they assume that being attractive makes you less intelligent. You observe silently and speak at the right moment.

Being a female dev means vacillating between grating under the assumption that you must be unattractive and being embarrassed by the knowledge that people who know what you look like think your PO just keeps you around to polish his knob.

Happens to the best of us. Que te mejores pronto!

Also, I don't know if I ever understand that basil joke 😂

Una tontería de gimnasio. Me excedí con el peso en el entrenamiento con el remo.

Damn, sorry to hear that! What happened?
