"Remember that this is all theater and you've got the best seat in the house." - Ryan Zinke, US Congressman
TIL that Congress plows their staffers in the Capitol basement and gets so drunk they have to ask their fellow members to vote on their behalf.
AI Image generation is the best thing ever lol. Still figuring out how to fix the text.
I've always said if you wanna actually get secession on the table, you've gotta make it the left's idea. Empires don't serve their citizens. I think the path to returning to America as it was intended is to disband the federal government.
I get the sentiment. Voters should have skin in the game, but how do we reform this idea to blend with the age of bitcoin?
The user experience at steak and shake was perfect. I hope they do well and other businesses see how easy accepting bitcoin can be.
I don't understand the "dollar going down because of fears the Fed is becoming politicized" narrative. Isn't the fed already politicized? There current behavior seems indicative of such.
Thank you!
In light of the anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's assassination and all this talk about "threats to democracy," the historical revisionism of Lincoln and the acts of the Radical Republicans after the Civil War is under discussed. What's even more important and has fundamentally changed the nation-state balance and continues to affect our lives today is the Fourteenth Amendment--more accurately titled "military edict no. 1." The United States is not a nation founded on popular sovereignty and the will of the people as long as the Fourteenth Amendment is considered a part of our Constitution.
I advise every American to study the history of its ratification. In short, placing half the country under a military occupation until they ratify the Fourteenth Amendment was neither popular nor sovereign.
Everywhere I've moved (and I've moved a lot in the last three years) one of those has opened up.
If only we could get both sides to simultaneously prefer returning power to the states. The dark truth is both sides don't want to be left alone; they want to impose their will on the other side.
Law students at the University of Florida's law school are calling for a racist student to be expelled because of his views. The people who are supposed to uphold the rule of law and some of the most educated people in the country abandon the First Amendment when they hear something they don't like. Pathetic. Admittedly the administration has said they will not censor students based on their views. Ever since this erupted, students have been mocking the school's stance on the First Amendment.
Nothing quite like the expressionless face of a boyfriend in a grocery store. The look of emptyness. Staring into space while his girlfriend picks between two different jars of spaghetti sauce that is actually the same jar. Is it a cry for help?
Fired up my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll server today and I have to say I'm quite pleased so far
A man ahead of his time. I hope history remembers him fondly.
