 Can someone explain what people are doing to lose this ₿? Are they trying to short the market like stocks?

What does $100k mean for you? How is this milestone different than 98k? 
 Just fun.

Question for my US frens about Airsoft. Is this an Airsoft gun in any way?

I believe it to be a hoity toity Nerf style toy that we bought off Amazon for our son. The Australian gummint, however, have accused us of importing a prohibited weapon into the country. I'm not joking, we could be charged. https://i.nostr.build/172BFDld7YC4gVrE.jpg https://i.nostr.build/ccd7oPr292gk37L7.jpg 
 Paintball guns are now seen as firearms, you need a gun licence. That's been law for decades. Gell blasters are also now firearms, quite recently, after one guy went around shooting out of a car. 
 It's the Gulag for us.  
 As far as we know, a little puff of air fires the foam nerf dart out, it doesn't have plastic bb's  
 Cool, here in Aus they are totally banned, you can't even own one with a gun licence.  
 I almost, almost, want to get charged, so I can stand in front of a judge holding a fucking nerf gun while explaining what an airsoft gun is.  
 Just realised it looks like an enormous eye looking down on us.

 Yeah, I can see that.  
 22° solar halo (just learned that) above Goolwa, South Australia. Pretty cool and vivid.

 Since when did being weak become a virtue? Disabilities are like arseholes, everyone's got one, don't use it as and excuse.

 You can lose your licence for riding a bike drunk, but you're allowed to ride that same bike to work with no licence the next day.

 You don't need a vehicle licence for a bicycle, but you can lose your vehicle licence for drink riding a bicycle. I find that stupid. 
 All good, I should have said bicycle. 
 Yeah similar here, it's just stupid. 
 i have a confession, some of you know this but I work in corporate finance 🤢, but also I love ... 
 More finance people SHOULD be Bitcoiners, strange they don't get it. 
 Did you receive any texts or questions from your friends, family or colleagues about #Bitcoin rec... 
 Not one. It'll be too late for most when they realise. A finance guy on the news was talking about the daily stick market figures and how Bitcoin was the highest performing thing compared to anything else since Trumps election, he then said "but back down to earth now.", as though it wasn't real.  That's everyone's concept of it, they don't understand. 
 How do we have almost 3000 billionaires on earth.... but not one batman...

 
 Good point 🤔 
 Do you answer your door with your weapon showing or did you grow up somewhere nicer than I did? 🤔 
 Where I grew up people left their doors unlocked all the time.  
 Adelaide, South Australia and Tasmania. My family in Tasmania still don't lock their houses when they go out, people just drop in. 
 My cousins neighbours in Melbourne, Australia used to fire AK's into the air on new years, they were Lebanese and you can't get away with that now.  
 Yeah, we're pretty lucky here. In the little town I live in someone in your backyard with a torch is high crime. 😂 
 Near Cygnet, they still live in the road named after our family, old convicts. 
 I've contemplated moving there permanently many times, but the child and rain put me off. My Mediterranean climate suits me currently. 
 Life taught me that the more low-profile you are,the happier you’ll be.

 I've found that, if people forget or don't notice you, the less they want from you.  
 Troubling. But “who” would do such a thing?

Brown Snake just scared the shit out of me in the greenhouse, it's in my greenhouse the bastard 😂

Anyway, good episode on productive plants for the homestead. I can easily kill Mint, Goji/Wolfberry and many other "unkillable" plants here on my dry hillside, but areas are getting better over time. 

Enjoy your day!

 The monologue in the last 20 minutes of this episode is 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Worth a listen for it alone.

Just had dinner alone at a restaurant for the first time ever. Dropped the kids off at a party and had a spare hour and a half without the kids or wife.

Hit up Bangkok Noi, in Hahndorf, SA. Funky little place, had a very nice seafood Tom Yum and a few Singha's, all while watching the people wander by. Highly recommend.
