 My favorite speech of all time! 
 THERE IS NOSTR AND THEN THERE IS EVERYTHING ELSE.

 World:  you should……

Me:   You’re not the boss of me 😁🚁 
 If Biden were to pardon Ross tomorrow, would he destroy the Bitcoiner voting block for Trump?

Ho... 
 No. 
 Times zones are fiat and should be eliminated.  The world should run on GMT (Zulu) as the aviation world already does. 
 What would be the outcome of this potential bitcoin policy from the dot gov?

The government says... 
 Capital gains taxes are a scam since the gain is usually due to inflation created by monetary system in the 1st place.   Capital gains tax will die as bitcoin becomes the measure of value.    I think Gov policy will be:  Please spend your bitcoin freely and engage in economic activity within our borders to benefit our citizens. 
 Sorry 
 why do I constantly have to build things that don't exist? 
 You get to. 
 This isn’t like 2016/17 anymore, where many people didn’t even know of Bitcoin. Now, literall... 
 Sounds exhilarating 😁🚁 
 Mocking or ignoring are the proper responses to these people. 
 the most whiny, dissatisfied people rarely make anything. 
 One day the money printer will dry up and they will fade into irrelevance where they belong.   For now, they can still get government and/or HR jobs. 
 Saw this emoji in the sky yesterday during my flight.  Guess it was a sign bitcoin was going higher 😎🚁.   #helistr

For a lot of people freedom can be stifling. This i... 
 💯.  These type of people infest the state bureaucracy which is why I really care about separation of money and state. 
 Could go for a face melting cycle rn

 💯.   I can only read so much.   I’m perfectly happy if it is just people I enjoy.

 I don’t want the USA to mine bitcoin.  I want the USA to make sure our country is the best place in the world for our private citizens and corporations to mine and acquire bitcoin.

 Supreme Court is  but one branch of government and not superior to the others.   Courageous representatives and executives would ignore that ruling. 
 I consider myself pretty much a default setting tech user and bitcoin works great for me! 
 Is there any way to get #bitcoin without going through an exchange ? assuming you don't know any ... 
 Get to know local bitcoiners, make it known you have fiat cash to trade for sats.   Do the transaction in person. 
 My next goal is to live more light-weight, mentally speaking. Had enough of all the heaviness, da...

 Who exactly is his we?   My guess is he is a coward who would only send other people to do the dirty work while he sits in safety. 
 So do we still call it Twitter or X? 
 What are those things, are they like nostr? 
 Those power lines are beautiful!  Probably built with helicopters😎🚁 
 Stupid people should think more. 

Smart people should think less. 
 Ummm, I’m gonna have to think about this😂 
 You can’t sanction a country you don’t like off the #bitcoin network.   I’d imagine authoritarians big mad about that. 
 We had to cancel flights today because of the flight restrictions associated with President Biden’s visit to AZ.   I appreciate him getting me some extra time off, but I’d rather have supported our workers.  Trump and Biden both in AZ today, seems like a great opportunity to have their golf contest. 
 So, I had a message on my Start9 that Bitcoin Knots had an update. I never had Knots installed. I...

 If you are a grown man and you scroll through tick tok you need to reevaluate yourself 
 If the tick tok dancing people show up in nostr faster than I can mute them, I’m out.

 Just watched it and really enjoyed it! 
 Gm, I'm not here to support nostr, I'm here because a place like this is my natural habitat. 
 That’s my plan. 
 Anyone have an opinion on pediatric dentistry? My youngest has a cavity and they want to fill it.... 
 We had our kids cavities fixed unless dentist thought tooth would be out soon.  They all went to a regular dental practice rather than pediatric dentist.  Not a pediatric case, but my neighbor had a tooth infection, ignored it, and now is paralyzed from the infection. Never thought before of tooth problems being so close to spinal cord.  If you leave it, I’d just make sure it’s not something that can turn into an infection. 
 Been banned from twitter for a minute now, don't think i'll be going back. oh well. 
 No longer giving people and platforms your attention is glorious freedom.  Don’t go back, just stay here😎 
 Think of how dumb the average person you know is. Then realize 50% of the population is dumber th... 
 Lots of people are dumb because being dumb has no consequences.  I bet they figure it out after they get hurt.

Thank you for tuning in for some of the best content from the best guests...

 Copying is not theft.
Stealing a thing leaves one less left
Copying it makes one thing more;

 Imagine thinking ideas are exclusive and it is the role of government to stop other people from using the ideas you put into public.   That sounds more communist to me.   If you don’t want other people to copy your ideas, it’s on you to keep them a trade secret.  If patents and copyright weren’t a fake form of government intrusion, they’d never expire. 
 There is no such thing as intellectual property outside of stuff you keep secret.  Once you put it out in public it is no longer property.  It’s plagiarism when you claim to be the original creator of the exact thought and you’re not.  Plagiarism is an academic/reputation/moral issue, not a criminal issue. 
 💯.  If you put organized information out in the public domain it is no longer property.  Property can be destroyed, information cannot and is thus something different.  Don’t want someone using/copying your ideas….. Keep them secret. 
 I think we care about authorship/identity because we care about reputation/trustworthiness.  The original organizer of good ideas will be who people seek out when they have new questions.  People who copy (including AIs) will only be able to answer with summaries of already answered questions. 
 500 Follower Celebration!

Firstly, Id like to show some gratitude towards a few fellow bitcoiner... 
 Congrats!  Leaving the old and embracing something better will result in a new bounce I. Your step.   Good things ahead from here I predict.  👍🏻🚁 
 Mute list is growing, I ain't here to argue with the haters 

Good vibes and freedom tech only 🫡 
 Same here.  No freedom of speech in my feed. 😁🚁 
 When Blackrock forks and dumps the real BTC that they confiscate for users who hold their shitty ... 
 Makes sense.  In that scenario yes I will dump BlackRock BTC for more of the good stuff.  If BlackRock is in change, bitcoin will have failed and I’m going off grid.
