 Oh oops, I said good night twice.

Third time's a charm. 
 Goodnight Thrice Jay ✌️🧡

 Has anyone tried red light therapy? Is it real? Does it work?

 Red light district therapy? 
 You can be masculine without being toxic. 
 I’ve been going to a therapist for over 5 years. It has helped my self esteem. 
 Thanks! The macho masculinity takes on here can be annoying. 
 Few people see the macroeconomics of spiral dynamics. 
 Are you into spiral dynamics? 
 Ken Wilber or Clare Graves?

 Personally, I find the economics side of Bitcoin most compelling. Once you understand scarcity and the devaluation of the dollar it makes sense. A couple of book recommendations:

Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt 

What Has Government Done to Our Money? by Murray Rothbard 
 Oof. The only interesting part is seeing if they cover 37.5… 
 It means bettors think Ohio State will win by at least 37.5 points 😂 
 Exactly. And anyone who bet over 37.5 wins the bet at whatever the odds were.

 Got a new sweatshirt that’s kind of baggy but I guess that’s the style these days? https://image.nostr.build/ef16ebf8e9b86032f4b63b8fc0cc4b7a7d81eb765def9111b81205fea9450d09.jpg  
 Absolutely! Next step is for my daughter to be old enough to tell me how uncool I am.

If the plural of 'man' is 'men' then is the plural of 'dan' then called a '... 
 Dans the man becomes Dens the men 
 Damn! I think we’ve gotten 6-7 inches the past two days. The roads were pretty icy this morning! 
 I don’t mind it right now. Ask me in February how I feel about snow 😂

 I’ve never seen that before. But Villa couldn’t get anything going offensively anyway. 1-0 seemed like the right outcome. 
 It’s nice having a team in the Champions League ⚽️. I get to watch football during the work week. #AVFC 
 Can we just vote to have no president? 
 Fine. I appoint you as president 🫡

 Have you watched Fringe? 
 Stolen from AI 

The plot of the TV show Fringe is about a fictional federal task force that investigates crimes and phenomena related to fringe science:

The Fringe Division is a joint task force that includes FBI Special Agent Olivia Dunham, Dr. Walter Bishop, his son Peter, and FBI Junior Agent Astrid Farnsworth.

The team investigates cases involving fringe science, such as transhumanist experiments, a technological singularity, and the possibility of two parallel universes. 
 This is the way. 
 We have an all-in-one oven/air fryer/toaster, etc. so it’s not a typical air fryer. But used the air fry setting at 325 for about 18 minutes. They were a little crispier than usual but still tasty!

 I think Ross says fuck the government. It’s not like Trump pardoned him when he was in office. 
 Yes. I’m aware. That doesn’t mean trump will do what he says. 
 There are plenty of people trusting his words about Bitcoin and free Ross
