 So many of you are into Pocket Steak for the wrong reasons. It's become a corrupted movement.

It's always been about one thing.

 My friends: "Wow you have a lot of followers, how did you do that?

 So what gets engagement on NOSTR?

1) FM

happy HODLing 😉🍷 
 I've gotten quieter about it in my community
completely recognize that and am glad I live far from a city 
 JUST
STOP

 Running an NFL Survivor League is my favorite way to stack extra Sats. #Bitcoin

Essentially its an Interest Free Loan that you get a chance to win back.

 Today is the Telluride Film Festival

That means I'll spend all day selling wine to LA Film Yuppies.

There is no other time of year that I feel more thankful for having found #Bitcoin and Bitcoiners and for living on a farm in rural Colorado. 
 white.? 
 he goes to this? 
 oh, thanks bro!🫡💪 
 I'll keep my eye out

what do y'all u think he will say if I tell him that he has the best Bitcoin show out there? 😉

 NOSTRs learning curve is YOUR opportunity  
 are you saying that nostr should implement the I'm feeling lucky feature from Google? 
 Talking politics with my family is incredibly frustrating. They're trapped in the Duopoly.

Right where the system wants them. 
 Not when it comes to politics and economics.

and I'm being to general with "my family" 
 🫂 morphius always knows what to say 
 I think I gotta stop, but it's hard 
 NYT and easing FOX to "get the other side" 
 I gotta get better at that 
 buying Bitcoin is voting

1) I'll be voting
2) my vote doesn't matter  
 and that's really sad to realize in someone you love and have looked up to your entire life 
 I've learned the hard way that I'd be better off just doing my thing quietly so many times, but can't seem to do it 🫂 
 I don't think the solution to a broken system can come from within that system 

but they don't take Bitcoin seriously as a potential antidote and the conversation can't really progress from there 
 see my answer #2 for my response  
 I'm not good at that and will do good to learn that by the his fall 
 this response really makes me want to pop a cork with you 🤝🍷 
 Hey!

I only sell direct to consumer, but it's super easy to arrange a shipment to meet you wherever you're going to be. 
 well said. gonna just try to not talk about it  
 that's the only way.
you just wanna shake people

but the only way is to walk your own path and hope they call out for you to wait so they can walk with you 
 boring but smart and I should probs do it more 
 no daylight 

this conversation "makes me sad" is the response  
 I can't argue with the conclusion you've reached. warmth and humanity seems like a better angle than combatting the machine  
 fkn a
well said 
 it's so much more bread and circuses than sports 
 you can pay for faster shipping, but normally I like to ship on Mondays and it arrives Thursday or Friday.

I can work directly with you to time it specifically tho. just shoot me a DM when you're looking to order 
 like love and friendship 
 who the fuck does that guy think he is? 
 I will always read POS as ‘piece of shit’ before ‘point of sale’ 
 holy shit 
 Never been more bullish on NOSTR 
 it happening
the momentum
how much I've been using it
the path forward (understanding what will bring people here) 
 Random guy I went to college with just reached out saying he was a big fan of Peony Lane 🍷 

He had no idea that it was run by a fellow CC alum. I had no idea there was another Bitcoiner who survived the same Liberal Dogma.

Fired up today.  #Bitcoin  
 GM.
It's Happening.

There are more people out there, on your side than you think. They just don't know to reach out.

Have Faith.

 I just got into a text discussion with a Kamala poll worker. I must be on a list.

 funny like that ain't it? 
 Just had an amazing interaction with a based (and clearly autistic) bag boy at the grocery store.... 
 My favorite love song right now has the chorus,
"IM GONNA SPREAD YOU LIKE BUTTER"

but you think you like butter more than me?

 I just followed @Svoboda because in his bio he says that he's an "unapologetic Pro Wrestling Fan"

That's the kind of GFY energy I love to see.
Many of y'all are just LARPing. 💪 
 💯 
 Making fun of people for still using Twitter is like telling people to HFSP for not buying #Bitcoin

It's fun, but come off as an ass.

You don't know people's finances and you don't know what people use social media for.

 
 the answer is both, but Nostr is my investment in the future  
 When you do something nice,
don't ask for anything in return.

the universe will provide 
 I love late replies to a joke I was making that I have to re-figure out what I was talking about
