The opposite of globalist.

$SQ now +20% after hours, happy to be well stocked!

20 years ago today, Concorde’s final flight; G-BOAC departing into the low cloudbase at Heathrow on 31st October 2003.

We took a step backwards then, as we did post-Apollo. Not the natural order of an exploratory species to voluntarily become less capable.

The hits keep coming.

I don’t believe X/@saveyoursons is on here, so I’m just going to re-post attributed as I get value from this healthy reminder. My goodness do they grow up fast.

“I keep this picture nearby at all times. I know it's kind of just a cheesy meme, but it serves an important purpose for me.

It reminds me to pay attention to what actually matters. It reminds me to say yes to my kids more. It reminds me that at the end of my life I'm not going to care how many grains of sand in my hourglass I spent on business or work or anything like that.

All that will matter at the end is your memories, and the way you impacted the people you love.”

The anxiety of not having enough on the upswing is way is more challenging than cruising through the bear times.

Boy did Jason nail the timing.

#Bitcoin acting like people have just noticed their wealth has been intentionally devalued by 20% over the the past three years.

Our youngest comes home from daycare with so much sand in his shoes we’ve decided to start collecting it to see if we have a whole sandpit by the time he leaves for kindergarten.

Not content with killing people suffering from depression, apparently we’re moving onto those with addictions. Of course, in Canada the government is involved in the supply business, so they have both ends covered.

Medical Assistance In Dying.

A relative of mine lives in a complex for seniors and reports his neighbour plans to “keep going until he runs out of money and then apply for MAID”.

Welcome to retirement in Trudeau’s Canada.

Trust me bro, I’m from an international framework.

“Japan has joined an international framework backed by cyber powers the U.S., the U.K. and Israel for software manufacturers to ensure security of their products against cyber-attacks”

Indeed. So many of our civilizational issues boil down to energy flows. Ascend the Kardashev scale or retreat and wither to irrelevance and extinction. Carbon dioxide was always a proxy (attitude toward nuclear the bellwether).

The eco-cult, having established that both the invention of the wheel and harnessing of fire were unfortunate and ideally reversible events in the history of mankind, now have their sights firmly set on science at large.

Excellent thread; post and responses. Honestly not sure what I’d be doing without #Bitcoin; spending my lunch breaks visiting the local bullion broker for coins and bars like I was during the early years of this century perhaps. What a mess. nostr:note13rh33sxfrunx7s0yq2w39wx08pnwpphheqx6wa6exjfzl3headfshmjuan
