It's such a juvenile conception of sex - just pleasure rather than reproduction
No wonder we have so many sodomites and pedophiles when even adult women expect you to use their body just for pleasure
From wiki:
The term gasoline originated from the trademark terms Cazeline and Gazeline, which were stylized spellings and pronunciations of Cassell, the surname of British businessman John Cassell...
In the course of business, he learned that the Dublin shopkeeper Samuel Boyd was selling a counterfeit version of the fuel cazeline, and, in writing, Cassell asked Boyd to cease and desist selling fuel using his trademark. Boyd did not reply, and Cassell changed the spelling of the trademark name of his fuel cazelline by changing the initial letter C to the letter G, thus coining the word gazeline. By 1863, North American English usage had re-spelled the word gazeline into the word gasolene; by 1864, the gasoline spelling was the common usage.

Petrol isn't a great name either, given that it's not petroleum but a petroleum products (and one of many).
how do you feel about lobster, shrimp and crab?
IMO best is either managing wilderness to support wild game (eg natives in New England used to burn the forest to clear out the understory and keep it in a savannah-like stage of succession) or pastoralism
I had assumed Israel was basically a European colonial power in the Middle East, but after learning about their plan to nuke the world if they're ever threatened I see them as more of a North Korea of the Middle East

This is a great series in which Rothbard talks at various points about the attempts to cartelize on the free market, including in sugar, railroads and oil refining
They all failed for various reasons, leading businessmen to turn to government regulation to enforce their cartels throughout the "Progressive" era
I think prayer is helpful because it requires you to translate what you want into concrete language (rather than just a vague emotion)

I'm fine with flat forever
I don't hold gold to get rich (although I do think it will appreciate in real terms as fiat dies)
I don't care about stock to flow or whatever
Even if hyperbitcoinization happens gold's value will still be based on how difficult it is to pull out of the ground
While if gold circulates more freely Bitcoin can go to zero

2024 Bingo Update
After the attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria and the ambiguity of my wording of 'Israel vs Muslim Nation State' I think this checks that off. It is an attack directly between the two.

I don't remember what I said when this question came up a couple months ago, but I agree it should count
Israel's strike on the Iranian embassy is an act of war
Yep - disentangle from the federal leviathan and move towards complying with A1S10 of US Constitution
GOLDBUGS AREN’T BITCOINERS
And they never will be.
Yes, they’ve identified a common enemy - central banks and governments who print money out of thin air.
And they have the right prescription - sound money.
Logically they should be our greatest allies, but they are not; why is that?
Because Goldbugs are in it for themselves. They want a return to a gold standard not because it would free people from fiat debt slavery, not to help the unbanked or to separate money and state.
No, they are goldbugs because it would pump their heavy bags. The fact gold is already captured and controlled means Goldbugs cheer when Central Banks buy more because they don’t want to overthrow the table and reset the system; they just want fiat repegged to shiny rocks in a vault no matter their rhetoric.
This is why so few actually convert to becoming Bitcoiners; they’re not in it for something greater than themselves - they’re in it only for themselves.
The few who have joined us had ideological axes to grind. Whether it was nostr:npub1gdu7w6l6w65qhrdeaf6eyywepwe7v7ezqtugsrxy7hl7ypjsvxksd76nak watching his country get rekt, or nostr:npub1d3f4m9dgvkdjxn26pqzsxn6lpfn78sxwllxyt8mp76q0a9zyyjlswhr4xv who got fukt in the GFC or Quoth the Raven who realised the “cult” would be a self-fulfilling prophecy - they saw beyond 5000 years of history and understood this could be bigger than all that, and might actually work.
And this is why the Goldbugs ultimately failed - they had no positive vision to articulate for the world, and thus no identity for others to adopt.
They could tell you about a better monetary system but economics is inseparably intertwined with politics and culture and philosophy; without which they lacked a comprehensive worldview and aspirational conviction for others to follow.
Bitcoiners must learn from this lesson of the Goldbugs if we are to succeed. Millennials need to step up and lead the way, demonstrating a better life that people want to emulate and opt into.
Merely asking of the fiat system to use our money is not enough. 
Gold isn't going up, fiat is going down
It's not about "pumping my bags" it's about having money that doesn't evaporate
And Bitcoin is nothing - a game of telegram, a chain letter
Just another fiat
