This guy is definitely one of the clowns.
Well, if you're sold on meat as a health food, but you're still having issues, it seems like trying no sugar (especially if you never have) might be worth a shot, but good luck either way.
Too much fruit & sugar can be an issue.
Whenever you realize that doesn't work, commit a month or two to fully breaking your sugar addiction. No sugar, no grains or grain products, no veg oils, basically just eggs & beef. Brain fog & sluggishness & other potentially even flu like withdrawal symptoms will be rough for a week or two. But after a couple of weeks you will wake up one day feeling more grounded & clear headed than you've ever felt in your entire life.
Someone telling you to eat more sugar to solve the problem is like a smoker saying you just need another cigarette to relieve your stress. It's only going to make the problem worse.
He said he wanted to cure brain fog, not cause it.
Red meat is the healthiest food a person can consume.
Evertime a girl joins Nostr she has to experience the "suck it Fed" greeting & accompanying mating calls of the internet Autists.
Once you follow 200+ people Nostr is much more fun.
$580k...? I know inflation is bad, but there is no half a billion dollar lambo.
I don't think I could ever be with someone who put themselves on display that way. I have no problem with the fact that some do. I suspect that the choice to do so isn't usually the result of anything particularly healthy. But it doesn't do anyone any good to attack or condemn people for something that harms no one.
There seems to be all sorts of insecurity on both sides of the sexual divide. Religious people are like sexual anorexics or bulimics, & then there are sex workers who are basically the sexually "obese." Neither being good examples of a healthy approach to the subject.
Sex is supposed to be the physical representation &/or celebration of a deep mental & emotional bond that you have with another person. When the mental & emotional connection isn't there, the sex will often just leave you feeling empty.
It's kinda like throwing a birthday party with no birthday to celebrate.
Sometimes just examining the fact that you feel the need to ask a particular question can reveal something about what you may already know on a deeper level.
As someone who has done it & was always honest with them, it can be fun, but it won't bring any sort of real satisfaction, & it won't really make you feel less lonely. And either you hook up with people who are completely broken (not smart for all sorts of reasons) or you eventually have to hurt all of them because they will all want to be the one you choose & none of them will be. You can certainly learn things in the process, but the biggest lesson or realization for me was that I actually wanted to find someone with whom I could really connect & build a future with, & that it was stupid to waste so much time not actively looking for her.
Post covid, I don't want to fuck anything that got jabbed so I think quality would be my primary focus either way.
The pattern is harder to see because the China mining ban prevented the normal blowoff top in 2021. Instead it was basically inverted.
This time around 2025 (like 2017 & 2021) should be the real bull market. Halving years (2016, 2020, & now 2024) are generally decent, but usually include a solid amount of down to sideways movement. Even if this year ends up being unusually good, there is still room for a lot of chop between now & the upward moves that are likely to come later in the year.
So many libertarians were so desperate to hear their ideas parroted by someone halfway famous that they fawned all over that psycho. But he was so clearly a piece of shit human being.
People become increasingly race conscious & demographic focused as they regress to more primitive, unintelligent, & uncivilized states of existence.
Our old WEF buddy is at it again on this bitcoin is a system of distrust thing.

> When I say that Bitcoin is a currency of distrust, I'm just repeating what Bitcoin fans themselves say. There may be good reasons not to trust the banks and governments that create dollars, yens, and other currencies – but that doesn’t change the fact that the preference for Bitcoin is based on distrust of human institutions. Why is this an alarming development? Because the whole purpose of money is to create trust between strangers. Financial devices like currencies, bonds and shares – 90% of which are just data in computers – build trust between millions of strangers, who can then pool their knowledge and resources together, and cooperate. Humans control the world because we learned to do this. If we now lose trust in human institutions, this will limit the amount of money and handicap economic activity and cooperation. I hope that humanity finds a way to build trustworthy human institutions, instead of adopting technologies of distrust.

The banks & govts & the legacy financial system are not trustworthy. People who are trustworthy don't mind if you want to verify that they are being honest. It's only the liars & the cheats who need your trust to operate.
I have spent a decent amount of time on the subject & I think a lot of the common interpretations are completely upside down for a number of reasons. I have talked about a lot of it on nostr, and I have halfway been working on a book. Idk if it will ever actually be a book, but maybe.
This really should be obvious, but I just had to explain it to someone so here it goes again:
People who make money by finding ways to better serve others are not greedy.
People who want something for nothing are greedy.
In other words, the most greedy & truly corrupt people are those who are only happy when they see others engage in self sacrificial acts.
If you can't be happy when everyone benefits, then there is something wrong with you.
nostr:npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec You asked a really good question on hodl hang about reconciling wealth acquisition with new testament theology that didn't get answered directly.
I've contemplated that same issue a lot as I have gone down the bitcoin rabbit hole and read the Bible.
Looking at it from a Buddhist standpoint was helpful for me. Buddha discovered the vacuous nature of material posessions... he then went on to become an ascetic.
Ultimately he realized that was not the answer either and found 'the middle way'.
It's an endless balancing act. 'Being in the world, but not of it.' From a Christian perspective.
I certainly don't have a definitive answer... I don't think there is one. Just wanted to throw in my two sats 🤙
IMO the gospels teach that the divide between good & evil is the pursuit of truth vs the pursuit of status. Wealth acquired for some meaningful & creative purpose is always good. Wealth acquired for power or vanity or social status will not satisfy a person & will only increase the speed they are able to build their own personal hell around themselves.
Was an interesting episode of Rogan
Political boondoggles are never meant to be completed, they are crafted from ideas that sound nice which can be used as a means of extracting money from people forever.
This is a particularly good idea if you can work on cars yourself & if you buy something from the early 2000s which is probably at it's lowest value now but has some solid potential to be more desirable a decade or so from now.
The only downside is that the risk of unforseen expenses which might not be fully covered by the improvement fund could be high right from the start.
