Regardless of your opinions on Palestine/israel, or even the protests on campuses…

What I can’t get out of my head are videos I’ve seen of police geared up more than soldiers in Afghanistan beating young college women and girls with batons and pepper spray as they hold their hands up.

The military police state in the U.S. has been quite robust for some time, regardless of the administration in power at federal and state levels. Our obsession with violence and power in our highest institutions is an irreversible stain as large as slavery was to the inception of our nation.

This is nothing new, but it’s so painful to see every time.

Using a coinjoin is the same as ordering a sex toy online & having it come in a package with a generic name instead of weirdfetish,com.

#Bitcoin  is a PUBLIC network. The idea that you cannot use privacy tools is literally like criminalizing people for not posting every DM in their public @X feed.

Something to be aware of as an operating principle.

When weighing the legality of something unclear or ill defined. Consider Letter of the law vs. Spirit of the Law.

Many think following the letter of the law is all that matters, but spirit of the law will often be the important question considered if a difference of opinion arises regarding the ruleset.

Intent matters.

Their definition is literally insane:

This is *literally* the criminalization of #Bitcoin  in its entirety. Running the software in any form means you are committing a crime. nostr:note1sy3fgdthmkjvezja07f3xldjcrd87xskljdwnthfawpqghur8n0sger6q8

Please delay WWIII until after the bull market. I need some time to build my bunker.

So Iran likely spent over $100M attacking Israel and Israel spent over $1B shooting down nearly all of Iran's drones and missiles.

What a fucking waste.

The more you reinforce a system based on theft, the more it steals from you, divides you, and then controls you.

From that system, war is inevitable because it is a requirement that you believe it is someone else’s fault to retain its power over you.

With the chaos from the existing system bound to expand over the next number of years, it will be easy to get pulled back in.

The more you reinforce a system based on truth, the faster the world changes to hope and abundance. We are early, but our actions matter more than we realize. Every node (we) matters.

Keep the higher ground, and help others see it.

Enjoying your morning coffee (black and no sugar) while listening to singing birds is priceless.

“Learn to appreciate what you have before time makes you appreciate what you had.”

GM, have a great day.

Xitterers don't get it.

Shouldn't God's pronouns be "they/them?"

It’s amazing how the “it’s going up forever” meme seems insane to most people, but in the right context, it makes perfect sense, and in multiple ways those same people **have already accepted it** in other goods/places that actually should NOT go up forever.

I make the case that’s it’s both natural, and exactly what SHOULD happen to our money. nostr:note1kajvqnj00eyz3l6xhzexmlmjcq7lrg2r46unrdlfvm5cc6k3833qegmfhk

In 2012, the daily issuance of new #Bitcoin  was 1800 multiplied by the price $12 equals $21.6k worth of Bitcoin (from 43k). Now Bitcoin‘s worth $63 million are issued daily which is reduced to $31.5 million after the 2024 halving. It looks to me that the halving is still significant.
