100% alpha and stack sats. Shrinkflation-proof. Never KYC. Peace.

SMBC comics parts ways with their ad provider, leaving them without any income.

I really wish I could just pay with lightning to see content. Are there any easy to use lightning paywalls? Surely someone could write some simple JavaScript to do this. It doesn't need to be completely secure.

The technology isn't exciting to hackers. The sats aren't wanted by the artist. The cash modality is always swimming upstream online. Anything else requires trust and yet custodial services always operate under a pall of suspicion. Anyone who builds trust (exchanges) gets accosted by the state and KYC. The question is which of these to tackle first and what subset needs solving to make lightning paywalls great? Til then it's sell for fiat and do patreon.

We just do it for the small talk. Nice weather today innit

You don't have to make me do this.

I'm just going to wait until they turn the power back on, buy up all the properties, and put hotels on them.

What's the favorite thing you made in the last month?

Mine was a vision board to keep my big ideas front and center.

When inspiration comes is it more like a fragile ember or massive supertanker?

Did Chalamet get robbed or do people just not care much about human stories?

Where did Kanye go off the rails?

The meaning to me is to do that which creates more life and more possibility. We are such small pieces of the universe but our capacity to create has the power to transform, enable, extend, differentiate, demonstrate, and inspire.
