On a flight with no Internet. Sent my friend a few Satoshis worth of ecash and possibly set an altitude record doing so.

From phone to phone. We're both offline.

i'm a simple man, i design art and resist the state.

i smoke cigars lit with a dupont in the sun,

i wear a swiss watch telling the wrong time.

i eat fine steaks and travel the world to meet with other sophisticated simpletons,

i was early on the next global reserve currency.

i wasn't always like this, but i am now...

thank you, satoshi🏴‍☠️⚡️

Primal has an integrated Strike-based KYC Bitcoin wallet. Not making any value judgements – I see the use case.

Do you know whether they connect your npub to your KYC data? Has anyone looked at the code? Even if I was ok with KYC'ing with Strike, I would never connect the KYC data to my npub. Would you?

Looking back I wasted so much time being loyal to the wrong people.

Massive miscalculation.

Probably a self worth issue on my end.

I extended loyalty to those who didn’t deserve it and of course it blew back on me.

It was my fault, not theirs.

They never deserved it in the first place.

This is what stoicism is all about.

Looking back and realizing that you were actually the cause of all your suffering.

Not others.

Here's a hard pill to swallow...

#Nostr is not just a social media platform to replace [insert centralized SM here] because your bigotry and anti-woke ideas will be censored... your conservative bullshit thoughts are the last thing we need to concern ourselves with protecting.

Decentralized protocols are built so that people in oppressed governments can communicate freely, so your basic Google research of homosexual porn is not saved on some server that will later come back to haunt your homophobic public self.

Decentralized protocols, privacy, censorship-resistant tools are here to aid our data, our freedom of choice, to give a voice back to all of those who have been unjustly oppressed. If all you do is sit all day, shitposting stupid comments on how you are the better bitcoiner or nostrich because you run your own node, have never been KYCed, and throw hate at whatever tools and makeshift efforts others are using to try and build a future, you are not a better human, you are part of the problem, you are just loud, creating division and hate.

FOSS is for everyone, and it should be used in the ways people can with the tools they have. Nothing infuriates me more than people so blinded by their own privilege that they can't understand that those who need the tools the most can't use them as easily as they can because of LIFE AND REASONS!

follow the money.
