Anyone homeschooling here on Nostr?

Yeah some choices evolve that’s for sure

Spending habits are totally different

It's insane to me that the Epstein files are used as a political football by both parties, as well as the voter base of both parties. "Look! Clinton is in the files!" says the red shirt. "Look! Trump is in the files!" says the blue shirt.

It shouldn't matter. Unspeakable things were done to underage girls (and boys) over a long period of time. Incredibly powerful people were (and are) involved. Politicians are implicated across the aisle, obviously, as are three-letter agencies. Some of the kids are ~5yrs old. Some of the photos show toddlers. What the fuck? "Disgusting" doesn't even begin to describe the situation. How broken is the current landscape if the only lens this is viewed through is the political lens?

One thing is worth remembering, however. It used to be a "conspiracy theory". Only a few months ago, talking heads and politicians would try to convince the public that there's no such thing as the Epstein files. Some high-ranking officials said as much under oath, even. What happened to perjury? Is it just a fancy word in today's day and age? I doubt that anyone will go to jail (except to commit "suicide"). And while perjury is a severe crime by most standards, it pales in comparison to what must have happened on the so-called "Lolita Express" that travelled so often to the "Virgin Islands". Oh, how funny. All these names. It would be comical if it wouldn't be so sad. Diabolical, even.

U.S. politics is a joke. The idea of justice as well as the legal system increasingly feels like a joke too. Innocent people are being jailed. Corrupt politicians and other officials are roaming free, because ... what? They are too powerful? Too influential? The system would destabilize too much if things would come to light?

Justitia holds a balance and a sword for a reason, and she wears a blindfold for a reason too. Today's reincarnation has no sword, no blindfold, and the balance she holds is obviously NOT using honest weights and measures.

What a laughable attempt at "transparency". I would laugh if it wouldn't be so horribly, horribly sad.

It’s easy to get riled up by the politics of it

You’re right

As I reflect, WTF, especially as a man with young kids

Even yday, in the park, a grandmother was clearly shaken up by a man who’d just been there, and as she explained, was now loitering in his car

He’d been wandering around her and the playground

Casually pretending to piss behind a tree

All whilst ogling her and her 5 and 3 year old grand-daughters

These are weak men

Preying on easier targets

As soon as I arrived he drove off

They smell blood when they don’t see a father around…

Drop kicks

And yes, that same description would also apply to the so called “leaders”’ of our modern world

So clearly wrapped up in some paedophile party

Preying on young children

Probably because it was done to them

Weirdly normalised

🤬

The key there: you’ll be able to choose

Ie if the protocol kicks off, you can still curate your experience to be niche

No algo

Short following list

There would be very little noise per say

Orders of magnitude different

2015: no idea what Bitcoin actually was

2025: living on a Bitcoin standard

It’s helping me figure out what I think

Which is that I don’t mind if Nostr remains a fringe community and technology

I like it. The people. The use case. The building

So building for Nostr as it is remains a worthy task

Always looking to test my thinking

Indeed!

It makes it all the more interesting that we have such high quality conversations

I like to get my money to work for me

I don’t sell my time

This took many years to evolve

It would not have happened this early in my life had my father not died young

Inheriting wealth was a kick start

But without the right intellectual capital it would be long gone

Keep learning

Iterating

Trying

Failing

Onwards

💪🏻
