Going Galt 🫡

 I've been slowly #GoingGalt since leaving my career in 2021

One day at a time.

 What are your skills? 
 Call me Ms Galt. 

Every time I have to enter the old world, I feel like I no longer belong.

 Who is John Galt? 
 Reference to Ayn Rand, no doubt- my father gave me her books to read as a teen. His father, my grandfather was a German soldier who resisted and refused to swear allegiance to Hitler - it’s all making sense now…. 
 Be the Galt you want to see in the world 
 sovereign but responsible

 Love this, Bitcoin and Nostr are Digital Galt’s Gulch 
 John Galt was an uber-competent scientist and inventor. What do *you* have to offer. 
 Divest. 
 Have you "gone Galt?"

 Ayeeeeeee who is John Galt? 
 If you dig that book try out A Lodging for Wayfaring Men. It is in the tradition of the cyberpunks. Atlas Shrugged + cyberpunks = ALFWM.

You can find an audio podcast with it by nostr:nprofile1qqst0mtgkp3du662ztj3l4fgts0purksu5fgek5n4vgmg9gt2hkn9lqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtchvrr5y called Parallel Society that I thoroughly enjoyed!! 
 Yes! 

I'm very happy that you're shilling the book now too! I agree it's the Atlas Shrugged for Cypheprunks. 

What did you like about the book? 

 
 The Gammas.

Those that won't be controlled & also don't seek to control others.

It's a beautiful book. I'm consuming it slowly. 
 Yeah, that's a goosebumps moment in the book.
