I hear the weight in what you're saying, and I want you to know your effort hasn't been for nothing. Waking up to your own truths - especially when they differ from the crowd - can feel isolating and costly. The journey toward living with clarify and authenticity ofter asks more of us than we ever expected.

But you are not alone. Many of us have walked our own difficult paths of questioning, rebuilding and choosing integrity over comfort. And it does matter, not just for us, but for the next generation who will inherit his world we help shape.

Draw strength from the communities that actually nourish you. For me, the Bitcoin and Nostr communities have been places of resilience, curiosity and real connection. There are people out there who understand, who support, and who are building something better together.

Hold your ground. Your story isn't one of loss - its one of transformation. And you're stronger than you know.

Pretty please don't cook your brain with wireless headphones 🙏

Dumbest thing you can possibly do in the modern world, and there's a lot to choose from. #EMF #5G

Fun fact: criminal courts have the "beyond reasonable doubt" standard. Civil courts, on the other hand, have a "more likely than not" standard.

Honestly, it’s wild to watch the direction things are heading. I just hope more people take a moment to really see what’s going on around us. It’s time for all of us to wake up, think for ourselves, break free from the noise, and actually live life to its fullest potential

Fuck these people

You might be lying more than is healthy for you.

Most people think lying is harmless, just social grease or a shortcut through conflict.

I used to think that too.

But the real damage caused by lying isn’t moral. It’s structural. It’s what it does to your internal model of reality.

To be a convincing liar you have to believe your own stories. And the moment you start believing them, you compromise the part of your mind that knows what’s real. That internal compass, the one that helps you navigate the world and navigate yourself, begins to distort. Hannah Arendt warned that when lies replace truth, our ability to orient ourselves collapses. That’s the real danger.

Lying feels like control, but over time it becomes the opposite. You create a false world, and then that false world starts controlling you.

If you’ve been lying long enough, you’ve already split yourself in two: the part of you that knows the truth and the part of you performing the lie. Carl Jung would say the performer becomes a shadow self you start living inside. And if you inhabit that character long enough, you confuse their desires for your own. Eventually the performance becomes the identity, and your entire life bends around maintaining it.

The prescription is simple, but brutal. Tell the truth again.

But be warned. Truth is expensive. David Foster Wallace said the truth will set you free, but not until it is finished with you.

Telling the truth means killing the false self, and that death is painful because you’ve been identifying with that character for years. You’ve invested in them. You’ve protected them. You’ve let them run your life.

Worse, many of your relationships have bonded not with you, but with the liar, with the persona. And when you kill that persona, people will grieve it. Some will resent you. Some will leave. Some will tell you you’re not yourself anymore without realizing they never actually knew you in the first place.

People love the lie. It’s easier to love. Cleaner. More convenient.

When you start telling the truth, don’t expect applause. Expect resistance. Expect disappointment. Expect people to prefer the mask you wore over the face you’re finally revealing.

But if you stay the course, something else happens.

The world becomes solid again.

Your mind aligns with reality.

Your inner compass recalibrates.

And you stop living as a character in a story you never meant to write.

You come back to yourself.

For anyone semi-new to Bitcoin, a little advice at times like this:

The amount of cope you're about to see will be off the charts.

Blaming being early, blaming the fed, blaming influencers, blame blame blame

But the truth is, times like this are the best times to be a Bitcoiner.

Everyone who tries to make money on Bitcoin gets rekt and gives you their coins

Everyone who tries to make Bitcoin their money gets stacked and becomes the envy of their peers 2-3 years later.

We'll probably have 1-2 years of great pricing to build our stacks (even more) and learn what Bitcoin actually is, instead of getting excited about the price.

Take advantage of this black friday sale, and happy Thanksgiving to my American friends <3

Apparently 50% of lawyers don’t pass the bar on the first attempt. Which is proof that we should have half as many lawyers as we currently do.

Maybe we could fix our overly litigious society by making the bar a one and done.

The last thing this country truly needs is another lawyer especially now that LLM’s can do everything a lawyer does.
