Pippin's such a nuisance to poor Gandalf, throwing the stone down the well and looking into the palantir, but in the end, Gandalf only came to fulfil his task through him.

You never know what it is good for in the greater scheme of things!

Safe and effective. Safe for big pharma's balance sheet, effective at reducing your "carbon footprint." 🧐👍

Here are some of my personal favourites

When I see these British high court judges in the media, the first thing that comes to my mind is paedophilia. I'm not saying they are all complicit in covering up institutional paedophilia, but those that do have destroyed my perception of them

there are no conditions that would survive from an evolutionary perspective that severely disabled young people before having children.

you should not be hearing about young adults and teenagers having strokes and heart attacks.

I’m gonna cut back on my podcast listening the next few weeks and watch every episode of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia for the millionth time, but first time in almost 2 years.

Jews are chameleons - white when it suits to undermine white culture, then Jewish to hide behind the race card and muh Holocaust.

You just print money, buy weapons and oppress people?

It's a totalitarian life. 🧐

[REDACTED] bless America. 💀

I don’t like arguing with people like this lol

he was never here for the revolution

I bet Tim Dillon was funny as fuck to hang out with back when he was drinking and snorting coke 🤣 🤪

Okay I'll admit that this has some utility to give people an idea about the 'addressable market', whatever that means

But if you think about it, it doesn't make sense 😭

This is going into the territory of *why* power wins over the market sometimes and vice versa during other times

You say that it's all about incentives. Some argue that it's culture, genetics, history, etc. Others say that it's about the dominant ideas people have. There are those who say that it's an inevitable pattern or progression in society and history. Or that it's divine intervention. Or that it's about the quality of money. Or technological progress. Or the planets.

I can't put my finger on it.

Great post. The closest thing humanity has ever had to a free market was probably in the early years post American revolution. It didn’t last long unfortunately.

I wish we could stop taking that metric seriously. I feel the same way about market cap also 😂

Imo this is the best time to set up trusted p2p networks to buy and sell bitcoin directly or simply networks of trusted bitcoin communities

Would also be a great time to upgrade our own tools that we use to interact with bitcoin

Don't think focusing on onboarding normies can be given much time unless they explicitly ask

gen x soft club was a popular aesthetic in the late 90s to late 2000s, characterized by urban typography, cool or muted colors, and minimal design.

it was often set against city environments like train stations, with a visual focus on clean lines, space, and restraint. the style acted as a more refined, futuristic version of y2k, less flashy, more intentional.

inspired by underground electronica, urban club culture, minimal architecture, and early tech imagery, its visual language often featured blurry photography, bloom effects, and metallic tones.

This would incentivize irresponsible lending right?

Meaning it would make lenders be less stringent while assessing risk. Borrowers would take on more debt. Lenders end up with like a lot of land.
