I like to mega zap when a post is a real banger or someone comment and it really hits me in the feels.
Can’t do that on xittxr.
Sadly, some of my older family members are extremely NPC. After a lifetime of MSM brainwashing and the total destruction of thought from it, all they can really do when faced with difficult realities is exclamation, “That’s a conspiracy theory!” And shove their head in the sand, never to look at it again.
I use to think I was obligated to have them ‘get it’ but I now realize they’ll never get it, and that’s ok. I’ve met great people throughout my life who do get it and wanna rap deep with me about these topics. They really value getting to share in those conversations, and want to join the party to be a playable character in the world.
Not everyone is capable of being a playable character, and that doesn’t make them bad or wrong; it just limits what is possible with them. I now focus on just keeping things with them as ‘normal’ as I can and considering that allows for things be stable and easy for everyone else in the family and that works well.
I’ve been really feeling the extreme emotions of, “WE NEED TO DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO DECENTRALIZED THE WEB, DEPLOY STRONG CRYPTOGRAPHY AND WIN AGAINST THE STATIST!!1!” and the other extreme of,
“Fuck it, I just wanna hang with my family, work on projects on my property and be left the fuck alone.”
I know a balance of the two is the real answer, but sometime in just really feels like one extreme or the other.
I love September as it’s the month that I’m so rich in apples and pears that I get to seek out the ripest, juiciest, tastiest fruit that there are.
Fuck these companies tracking my data and trying to sell me shit based off of that.
I have such a deep desire to find a way to completely fuck up their data sets and make them useless by feeding them tons of dummy data.
A good friend of mine took his own life, and he had another friend who asked to borrow money in the fall out of that. He promised to repay with a few months and it’s now years later. Saw him come up on a social feed and just thought that I was happy he was no longer in my life.
I’m always amazed at how cheap buying off someone crooked is. They’ll scam you for a few days of their wage, and fail to realize how much of a favor they did for you:
They proved they are a scammer and have saved you so much time and energy to have figured that out now, rather than later. Now they’ll never find work near any of my social circles and will be known as a scammer.
Your reputation is the most priceless asset that takes decades to build. Don’t piss it away for a quick buck or two.
I just loved this conversation between John Vallis nostr:npub198auqkkwueclk4u3st9r8v8yrdz4hv0e2e9epg7c7teemm3lyausht0p3g nostr:npub15vzuezfxscdamew8rwakl5u5hdxw5mh47huxgq4jf879e6cvugsqjck4um and nostr:npub1hk0tv47ztd8kekngsuwwycje68umccjzqjr7xgjfqkm8ffcs53dqvv20pf.
It's quite long but worth every minute.. it not just about #bitcoin.

Gonna be a great day.
How do we know Nostr won't feed us algos? Primal could implement similar right? Same for the relays?
Change clients and see what the difference gives you.
There is a real lack of understanding in just how fucked up the algos are, and how much power we gain in not being manipulated by them. We could be using the internet to do something extraordinary, and instead it is being used primarily to sell us shit and keep us scared. The whole of humanity is being fed lies and distortions through centralized social media that is designed to keep everyone asleep and unaware of their real power.
Now that there is no longer gatekeepers to what can be said to a global audience we have the power to shape a real unadulterated narrative; also known as the truth. The power of censorship to have molded a false global narrative is one of the pillars of the power structure that keep people divided over petty and impractical differences that can now be shown for what they are: manipulation tactics through the algos to keep everyone disempowered. We now have the ability to reclaim our voices in a way that no one can stomp out. What is to come and the changes that are to be ushered in will surprise all of us in the most remarkable of ways.
If we are to really think for ourselves with rigor and contemplation that is only worthy of being called thinking, then we must deeply consider the role of money and states in our world. We live in a technologically advance global society, yet we are governed by fractured, geographically limited elite party-based political forms that serve the most pernicious and immoral forms of life. This is only possible because of how money functions today in our world, and how we think of wealth itself and how broken that is.
Another world is possible, but it will only come to fruition if we are to think for ourselves in the most serious and rigorous of ways. For each one of us to deeply consider the state of the world, the position of all states, the functions of fiat money, the hidden meaning of value, what the real purpose of social media is, and how these all thread together in our globalized digital world where the internet is still free and open, as it may not always be. It is only through this rigorous thought that demand we take responsibility for the state of the world, that we can come to understand the awesome power that is Bitcoin and the hidden sovereignty that is encrypted within it.
Choosing Bitcoin as your own personal vehicle of wealth preservation is about so much more than just money, wealth, or savings. It is about taking responsibility for the state of the world and demanding the abrogation of all fiat money everywhere. This is not for the light and transient causes of personal riches, but to secure the value of money for the future ones in such a way that it cannot be unknowingly inflated away, seized in states of emergency, or guilefully stolen through the perniciousness of banking. It is our responsibility alone to rise the task that is demanded of our generation to secure wealth for the future, and to protect and honor it in such a way that no person, state, government, or institution can ever overcome it. Bitcoin is the only thing that can offer any being in our world this kind of security, and in that, it also demands our responsibility to cultivate, cherish, harbor, honor, and secure its flourishment and bloom in the world. Bitcoin is the personal responsibility for each of us to secure our own lives, wealth, and honor so that we may perserve that which is only destined for a world where the corruption of wealth has been solved and protected forever.

He looks so retarded…
I’m excited for corporate shills to make their way to Nostr so I can talk epic amounts of shit about their shitty corporation and there is nothing they can do about it.
Most people don’t understand risk because they have spent their entire lives living in a gilded cages serving their masters as good little slaves who don’t have to be concerned where the yield comes from.
Anons are the only heros that can save us now.
