Enjoy! I wish I had one near me.

I'm reminded of the story of the grasshopper and the ant.
Bitcoiners are the dutiful ants stacking sats relentlessly preparing for the coming winter while the grasshoppers are frittering away valuable time before disaster strikes.
Personally, I'm cautious and usually only speak about Bitcoin to people I know relatively well. I've never attended a conference, so for me that's not a problem. The thought of a wrench attack crosses my mind, though.
When Bitcoin goes absolutely bonkers and the world potentially turns to crap, how many of these people will knock on my door and in desperation will any of them come to try to do me harm.
I also zap about 25 sats on average, but that's also because that's what I tend to receive mostly, so I imagine for me it has to do with price anchoring early on in my nostr journey.
As for zapping I try to pay my zaps forward and zap out anything I earn wasting time on zbd games during a day.
I do fight the urge to horde sats, though I know that if we want this to work we have to spread the love.
For me, it's because the penny will be worth less by the time you pick it up, put it in your pocket and take it home, the sats are very likely to be worth more.

Really impressed with Venice
I've been trying to get an AI to make a picture of a Kamala Harris Muppet and I've been threatened with being banned on most platforms.
Venice did it without complaint
I'm kind of partial to the first and the last one
What do you guys think?

Thanks.
Getting away from the news cycle helps. Spending time in Nostr feels healthier. I try to spend time with friends and family and play with my dog, which always helps.
I practice gratitude. Compared to other friends, I'm well positioned to weather an uncertain future.
I also try to focus only on what I can control. Every once in a while though it just washes over you.
I have to admit, there are really frightening things happening in this world right now. Things I believed could only happen in books. And it chills me to my very core.
I wake up with feelings of unease, my dreams filled with anxiety.
I feel that we're nearing another turning point in our history. There will be a before and there will be an after.
I just pray that we are able to navigate through these dark times while protecting the shining beacon of liberty, freedom, and the very foundation of our civilization .
We can never give up our fight against the dark forces swirling around us, or we will be consumed

It reminds me of this opening scene with Steve Carell in The Big Short.
I live in a tourist city and sometimes when I look around, I feel this scene to my very core.
I want to grab people and start shaking them awake, but... everyone has to get there in their own time, if at all

It takes a humble person to look deeply into Bitcoin.
It tears apart your deeply ingrained belief structures and it takes a special kind of openness to being wrong to be able to do that.
Most people haven't suffered enough to be motivated to be humble.
Mmmm. GM and enjoy that amazing breakfast. I can smell it from here.
GM Nostr Plebs.
Let's get at it today.
I'm going to go out and spend time in nature with my doggo, enjoy another beautiful day of health and happiness, while I have it to enjoy it, and spend time with good friends today.
What's on the agenda for you?
