Yesterday, me and nostr:npub1lgyhay5uhwpun79nc7z2z0d3f4j4vrrwr9x79c760fhx4z7cxc3qvm00h6 discussed how we relate to others’ expectations and we came up with an insight we hope you might find useful ☺️ Here we go: if someone I know is in pain, so am I. Therefore, if someone I know has expectations of me and I fail to meet those expectations causing him pain, I feel this pain as well. All other things being equal, if I surround myself with people who have expectations of me, some of my actions become painful; specifically, those actions that fail to meet those expectations. Moreover, the others’ expectations often contradict each other; when they do, pain becomes inevitable for me because both the action and its negation lead to violation of an expectation and hence to pain. For me and nostr:npub1lgyhay5uhwpun79nc7z2z0d3f4j4vrrwr9x79c760fhx4z7cxc3qvm00h6 the conclusion is try not to surround ourselves with people who have expectations of us. #relationships #happiness #pain #expectations #emotions #personalgrowth
That’s why I’m using Primal. Custodial, yes, but I’m not going to keep my fortune here to zap you all, anyway 😅
You might find it liberating to switch to a different mindset - one in which you don’t give a fuck about us being mad at you or not 😉
That explains the relative paucity of porn on NOSTR… All we need is Bitcoin and NOSTR!

Yes, I believe so. If pursuing your own hapiness is not enough, then there are many ways in which you help other people by talking about, hacking, and buying Bitcoin. By talking about Bitcoin, you show others a path to financial freedom. By hacking Bitcoin (both in the “destructive” and the constructive sense), you improve the tools others can use to achieve financial freedom. And last but not least, every time you get rid of some government shitcoin and exchange it for BTC, you move the fiat system which actively impoverishes the poor (Cantillon effect) closer to a collapse and draw more people towards Bitcoin - and these people do the same for still more people etc. Hopefully it makes sense 🙂
