 William Shatner is 93 but looks and acts like 73. Always impressed when I see him in interviews. ... 
 Yep. That’s nostr Lyn. We need more posts like this to ensure botproofing. 
 There are three meanings in a piece. One is the intention of the artist, one is the piece itself, And one is the perception of the viewer. 
 Money is not a personality (digital or otherwise). 
 So little time.
So many tyrants to fuck with. 
 Sounds incestuous. 
 A Cashu gateway is a Cashu user who uses their own Lightning node to offer anonymous services for... 
 What about making static invoices for cashu mints where people can redeem the same QR code for a set of payments connected to an inventory of products. So a cashu token pays out a small amount of satoshis for each product sold but uses the same pay string address? Is this possible? A non custodial static invoice for AMP on lightning still does not exist. This seems like it could be a feature for Phoenix server launching soon, But what about cashu? 
 I think what I am imagining would be a feature of locktime. A set amount of payments would be associated with the cost of a good, So the mint can pay to pubkeys associated with customer wallets. I think this demands additional features in the e cash codebase. A P2PK with a fixed value associated with an inventory, Where the cashu nut does not expire until the transactions are all fulfilled and the 
token can expire. 
 Sorry the customer pubkeys can pay to an owner pubkey to fufill a token. 
 I am imagining being at a Bitcoin event with products to sell, And having an invoice that accepts payment for items. Each product could be a single token, And when this scales out, A business with tokens that have year or multiple year lifespans. 
 No time for a debt based economy or a guilt based relationship.

 That because you only party when bitcoin tells you to. Sheep.

 Hey, The military industrial complex needs proof of concept for the next round of money printing. 
 Check out CSIS on YouTube. Basically Military Industrial Complex shareholder meetings. It’s like watching the news two weeks/months in advance. 
 Problem is, When people think that you are rich, Nobody wants to help you, And when people think you are poor, Nobody respects you.

 IF THE RESULTS OF YOUR WORK CREATE SOMETHING FAKE IT IS A BYPRODUCT OF THE WESTERN LIBERAL ORDER. THE MONEY ILLUSION IS THE EMPTY PROMISE THAT FASCISM MAKES. REAL CHANGE IS NOT SOMETHING YOU BUY, ITS SOMETHING YOU CREATE. 
 Not every woman is cut out for a career as a prostitute. 
 Don’t make important decisions when you are high. 
 Being famous for bitcoin is bad opsec. 
 The Arab UAE Saudi average lifestyle. But not Iran, They are still traditional.

 Andreas Antonopolous talked about this, That the decimal point moved back around at the last block. A patch was made so it does go to zero. Mining for profit is a 100 year game. What happens when the block reward is 1 sat? Save those zaps! 
 My favourite thing about Bitcoin is the dress you wore when you won miss universe. 🤌 
 This is just the tip of the iceberg. Google the french connection or operation paper. The United States was both in Vietnam and Afghanistan to corner the opium market so the mafia can produce heroin in Marseille, France, So the money could be laundered through the Catholic Church to rebuild Europe after WW2. Not to mention the Iran/Contra scandal where the Sandinista movement was funded by the crack epidemic in Los Angeles fuelling the blood crip gang wars. Pretty much all the covert intelligence operations are funded with drug money and China is just leveraging this corrupt unending war on drugs to its advantage. No cool at all.

 I literally threw a book in the trash last night.

“The last white man”

I read Mein Kampf as... 
 Totally understandable. Somehow I think I would do the same with Donald Trump Jr.’s book “triggered”. 
I consider the word “white” derogatory. Identifying with the labor class particularly in the United States. The Carnegie family is largely to blame as people were more easily assigned to tasks when segregated into racial groups they agreed with. If your cultural identity is a color you have no idea who you are.
