I got mine and it is awesome ☀


my posture wasn't great and this was the thing that helped me most


reminds me of the Louis CK bit about getting old and trying to fix his ankle or something. a doctor tells him to stretch for an hour a day and louie asks how long he has to do that for until it gets better. doctor says oh you just do that now, forever


We either continually set and pursue higher goals, or we regress and die mentally. That’s the essence of the saying ‘most people die at 25.’

What I’ve learned is that there’s no in-between. Retirement is a false dream. Stasis is death.

So I have grown in the past several days. Bitcoin really does change you. I have started a new business. I like to make soap. But I was not understanding the Bitcoin marketplace. I assumed.

It has come to my attention that I am charging too much. Well, that is not because of the cost of the soap, but of the shipping. It is extremely expensive in today’s world. I apologize, but I can’t demand cheaper shipping cost at this stage.

I can, however, make bulk orders to make it right. Here’s the new prices, which include shipping.

2 Bars - $21
4 Bars - $35
6 Bars - $50
12 Bars - $90

This demands payment in Bitcoin. I do not sell for fiat. Period.

A Bitcoin Standard needs to be applied to all transactions. We must refuse, and extricate ourselves from the fiat world. You can’t do it if you stay in it.

Please visit our shop on @shopstr, and give @calvadev a huge tip.

If he makes this easy for non tech ppl, @shopstr will have the Bitcoin equivalent of ebay. This is just beginning. I want to be a part of it.

He has also inculcated @calle to have payments processed. While I have a very limited/ignorant understanding. I have had no problem with this setup. I receive order with address, what customer ordered, and payment. I ship, they receive, and we now have a V4V transaction. The bitcoin standard.

And this is only starting…

Welcome to the Revolution.

Great update, sent you some notes on it via DM


Hey #nostriches

Is your work aligned with your true calling in life?

Or are you being paid to overlook your overwhelming disinterest in the work?

Is your work-life driven by an illusion where the trivial is disguised as important?

Paul admits, “I spent 10 years doing an enormous amount of work but feeling as if I created nothing of substance.”

Most of us know the feeling, but it doesn’t have to be this way.

In other words, work doesn’t have to suck.

Today, I'm thrilled to have my friend and fellow Austinite, Paul Millerd joining us on the show.

Paul is a fellow former corporate consultant who has spent the past 7 years blazing an unconventional trail, leaving the rat race behind to pursue a life of creativity, curiosity, and freedom as an independent author and creator.

If you’re looking to reclaim your inner ambition, as Paul writes: “The only true and worthwhile edge is deeply caring about what you do.”

The real journey isn’t in indulging our desire to escape work, but in finding meaningful work that is true to our mission and purpose here on earth.

In this conversation, Paul shares the uncertainty and loneliness of leaving a successful consulting career, to the unexpected joys and challenges of building a life around his curiosity and passions. We'll dive into the frameworks he's developed for discerning "good work" from "bad work," and how he's navigated the ebb and flow of creative entrepreneurship, including the decision to turn down a lucrative publishing deal.

Whether you're feeling trapped in a soul-sucking job, or simply curious about what's possible when you break free of societal scripts, you're going to find an abundance of wisdom and inspiration in Paul's story.

"There is a war going on for your bitcoins, and willpower is your only defense."

"Everyone's a Scammer" by @bitstein was published 10 years ago today, and it remains relevant for positioning yourself for the next 10 years.

⌛Block 859417: Important News of the Week

Here goes another week. No Bullshit Bitcoin raised a total of 479,438 sats (~$278) in August, which is below what we've seen in recent months. The project raised 878,991 sats (~$512) in June and 690,106 sats (~$402) in July. These were the best months this year so far.

We've seen a notable uptick in our newsletter subscribers since the launch of GM Report, and Nostr has grown to be our biggest social media channel.

Our fundraising campaign that we launched in June with a goal of raising 1 BTC to become a fully-fledged news desk seems to have run out of steam, but we're not ready to hang up our sneakers just yet.

Remaining a publication operating solely on the Bitcoin standard is of critical importance to our reporting. No-strings-attached donations allow us to remain impartial and focus on serving the reader. Until the end of the year, we'll be looking into additional support for the project, as well as how to involve more people, including contributors.

Huge shoutout to our top supporters. Onward 🫡

Brave Search seems to be good. I was using DuckDuckGo for a while but recently it seems to be not very good with ads taking up the whole page on initial load.


this shit was a banger for real


I've been producing a lot of mediocre code working outside a lot this year which is a massive step up from producing shitty code while trapped inside


safe to say, I did not get this job


I popped on a pre-order at a higher price and before the bitcoin payment option 🙃


Event of kind 30023 can be opened with this application: highlighter
