I just got a scam call from Ryan at "Live Gmail Support."

GTFO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What one situation in your life that caused a personality change?

GM Nostr 🌳🌧️🌳

I'm sitting here listening to the rain and the forest, drinking a cup coffee, and thinking about Europe and the direction it's headed.

On one hand. I LOVE where I live. The quality of life is off the charts; I've got great friends, good food, and insanely good access to all the outdoor activities that makes me happy.

On the other hand. It's becoming more dystopian every month with the continuous stream of AML/KYC/Taxation/Prohibition laws being proposed and/or coming into force.

The continual gaslighting and incompetence that goes on at every level of government about the causes for rising cost of living and deteriorating economic conditions is also beyond absurd.

It's not the continent for running a business. It's not the continent for building wealth. It's not the continent for being free and having agency over your life and your finances.

I don't want to leave my valley. But I don't want to be subject to the EU bullshit either.

I know I'm mostly complaining here, and I'm certainly not expecting anyone to have any answers for me, but it's something I think about often and I wonder how many others are in similar situations.

I'd love to hear from folks that have left Europe (or other crumbling empire states) about their experiences.

Also – where have you all found to be the most free & open jurisdictions in the world?

Fucking wild bro. How do you follow the president? lol 😂

at the moment these legends are following Trump in the agenda.

Nostr is the main event folks.

In bitcoin’s early years, a lot of people debated the theoretical functioning of it with a critical lens, but then in practice it just worked and bootstrapped for the next 15 years and counting. It was simple and elegant enough to work despite being rough around the edges, caught all the right types of mindshare, and grew.

Nostr has a similar pattern so far. Lots of people critique it. And galaxy brains are trying to build more complex alternative digital identity schemes without much shipping. Meanwhile Nostr is out in the field bootstrapping with users and developers and companies.

how do you know I didn’t borrow against bitcoin to finance it? cheeky little speculative attack … one might even call it … money laundering …

just got my first dishwasher. AMA.

It's my birthday 🎂

Just saying 😌

Did anyone on here ever use a #bitcoin atm?

I spotted a few of them a while ago but I never used one. Didn’t really get the idea of a Bitcoin atm at thet time too…

Also, is it possible to buy such a machine yourself somehow?

Day 1 of the 4th of July week long cabin trip…..

My son bit the head off a snail and spit it out. 😅

GM to all the escargot 🐌 enjoyooors out there.

i’m interested to learn more about this type of censorship. can you share specific examples I can read about?

Bit-life crisis: The moment in your bitcoin journey where…

- your stacks stop moving the needle

- net worth fluctuates more than annual salary in a single day

- fiat job losses all meaning

- you lose the ability to self censor

- things that upset those around you barely register for you

- you just stop giving a fuck entirely

stablecoins may strengthen demand for USD as Paul Ryan said, but they do so at the expense of your ability to control capital flows

just sayin…

Built in the 1100s by Saladin, the massive Citadel of Cairo was the seat of government and residence of the various rulers in Egypt for centuries all the way until the 1800s.

In addition to its large size for the era, the citadel included a complex well system that pulled water up from the Nile.

From atop the citadel, you can see far across the city, including to the Giza Necropolis.

Think of every conversation as a dance and not a fight. You'll learn more, gain respect and make new friends.

STOPPED SENDING GM NOTES BECAUSE PRIMAL TRENDING HEAVILY WEIGHTS REPLIES AND THERE WERE TOO MANY CONSPIRACIES ABOUT WHY MY NOTES WERE OFTEN AT THE TOP OF TRENDING.
