 Good luck 💪 
 On iOS Damus had to remove zaps on posts because Apple. You can only Zap going to someone's profile and zapping that way. Someone created a work around but I am on Android and never played around with that. Welcome to Nostr 
 No problem. Yea the apple tax. The Primal app let's you zap posts on iOS but they have a built in wallet and let you buy bitcoin with....... the apple tax of course 😂. Got to give apple their cut from somewhere and then they will allow zaps. Its early days on here so engagement and stuff for new users is not the greatest. We have come a long way though from where Nostr was a year ago.  Replies are the way. Interact with people like this. Most people on here are great and helpful.  Glad you made your way here.  
 RFK: bro,have u seen what they use in McDonald’s !?

 After reading this. I JUST HIT SMASH BUY. 
 I knew you'd love it 😂 
 I love how calm it is and we are at 77k . I have the received 0 texts so far from people about Bitcoin. Everyone knows me as the Bitcoin guy and usually when things are going crazy they always hit me up. So far crickets. This is good news. 
 Listen I hate Pomp as much as most Bitcoiners but he held his own here. Dismantles the narrative Bitcoin is too volatile for savings

 We have lost of people along the way. Mainly those who were not humble lost their asses and had to shitcoin scam to make money back. 
 Cracks me up that people think today’s social media is so terrible for kids. 

Back in the day ... 
 So true. Also the famous "You got mail" usually meant spam from porn sites and all the bad stuff. Parents need to talk to their kids. I feel like that solves most issues. Instead they send them off to government schools all day and barely talk to them when they get home. 
 Banning social media use for teens is the 2024 version of “video games and rap music make kids ... 
 It should be the parents responsibility not the government.

 YES 
 DO IT NOW MR TRUMP 
 Have not heard that. 
 I kind of want to watch it now too. If I find good place to do so, I'll post it here. 
 Yea Tucker can be cringe sometimes. I'm listening to the full Rogan podcast with Dave Smith its definitely worth a listen. 
 After seeing how spot on betting markets were on the election. They seem to think its likely he will do it. We shall see though.

 💯. Massie might become the head of agriculture. That would be awesome he is based. 
 Congratulations.  I am joining #dadstr next year. I can not wait.  Happy for you.

 I agree. People are tired of being told how to think. I do not think they will change their ways either with Trump in office. He makes them malfunction. They will continue pushing the same junk and expecting different results. Some of these experts are blaming a certain group of people for the result instead of engaging in self-reflection. I watched more mainstream news in the past couple of days than I have in years, and I can tell you I can see why there is so much hate. If you watch this type of stuff every night, it can make you mentally ill. 
 Yeah, a lot of them were crying. I have a liberal cousin who went to Duke University who took social media and was going nuts over Kamala losing. They have been brainwashed to believe Trump is so dangerous, which is ridiculous.  He was already president. Mental illness 📈.  https://v.nostr.build/oyQpMpV8XwXPD0wc.mp4

 😂😂😂😂 
 I am optimistic about it too. A lot of people behind the scenes could lose a lot of money if he succeeds, so I expect a full-on assault to stop anything he tries. 
 Bad take. RFK Jr was not there last time.  
 Okay, when you repeat stuff like "Felon" and "Rapist", I know you are clearly brainwashed by repeating talking points. Did you ever look into that with a critical thought, or just repeat whatever MSM tells you? There is a reason they went after him with ridiculous litigation past the statute of limitations that they would not pursue on anyone else. So they could have these labels they could blast on MSM media. So NPCs could repeat it over and over.

We are a joke to the rest of the world? It seems like they are starting to straighten up because we actually have a president without Dementia now. Is Trump perfect? Hell no but the irrational hate for him is just stupid. MSM brainwash works sadly. I see so many NPCs repeat Felon and Rapist over and over. Sad. Think for yourself. https://i.nostr.build/fD5Gx3Z92hoLbNs5.jpg

 Anyone who would look at this with a clear mind would have questions. It's so easy to dismiss stuff as conspiracy. That's closed-minded BS. Everything they said about COVID vaccines as "conspiracy" ended up slowly becoming truth. The 2020 election probably goes down as the election of fraud on both sides. Even Trump's number is statistically too high.
https://i.nostr.build/uEFlmPA2OiYFL6cX.jpg
Where did those 15 million voters of Joe Biden go? I guess he was just that good of a candidate! Maybe the covid vaccine killed 15 million people. Hard to explain how those voters just disappeared.........

🙄 He wouldn't have to pardon himself if the political targeting illegal actions against him didn't take place. Rapist? Never convicted of being a rapist; he was convicted of sexual harassment and defamimg of a lady from 1990 - a lady who goes on CNN and says rape is sexy. Yeah, that trial in New York was fair and unbiased. They even increased the statute of limitations prior to that. It was a civil case as well not a criminal one because he would never be convicted. Felon for bookkeeping, paying off a porn star? Felon for that? I guess half the nation are felons. Most small businesses' books aren't up to snuff. All done so they could say over and over on MSM "Rapist" and "Felon"! So people could repeat it over and over like NPCs and they sure did.

The hate for the man is irrational and brought on by constant mainstream media brainwashing - 80% negative coverage. Meanwhile, 90% positive coverage for Kamala, and she still lost. How terrible of a candidate do you have to be to have all the chips in your favor and still lose by a landslide? Embarrassing. The nation has spoken. They are tired of the brainwashing and being told how to think. I kind of hate that I have to defend Trump. I was dissapointed by his first term. I think there are better candidates with much more based conservative foundations like Thomas Massie and Rand Paul. However, the more people unjustly treated him the more it pulled in people like me. Liberals dug their own grave by politically prosecuting the man. Literally doing the exact same thing they been fear mongering he might do.

 Fair enough but if you can't verify the supply its just not good money. I typically don't dunk on Monero because I respect people wanting privacy.  Its the least bad shitcon but its still a shitcoin. 
 Everyone must be burned first before they get it. Hope she enjoys her rug. Influencers also tend to go towards shitcoins because they can be at the top of the pyramid and scam their followers. Bitcoin does not work like that.

 🇵🇷🇵🇷 That must of been a cool experience. When I first moved to PR, I  used to go to that beach often. I lived close by 🌊🏝️
 
 That's awesome having those experiences young. What part of DR are you from?  My wife and I fly to the DR every year, it's a very easy flight. It's usually to get away for a little while in Punta Cana or Cap Cana. My wife loves this place. We go every time we are there.

 I just bookmarked this. Yeah, we usually go for the resorts just to get away and relax a bit. However, we will have to do a trip to explore the island more. I appreciate the recommendations 💜. Home is always home. Hope your able to visit DR soon. 
 I lost a lot of respect for Bernie Sanders when he got railroaded in 2016 and he still endorsed Hillary which showed me he ain't based at all. Ron Paul refused to endorse Romney because he stands for something why he was so beloved. Bernie probably got paid off as well for a communist he does love easy money.  
 Doubtful. He is not based. If he was threatened he wouldn't be so friendly with them.  Not a prinicipled guy.  Always attacking the rich but the man lives in a McMansion. Typical communist. 
 They turned that joke into a political opportunity. I live in Puerto Rico, and it was played 24/7 on the news. Most people are unaware of the waste management problems here, including many of the people living here. It had little effect on the elections. The Puerto Rican areas in Florida were still won by Trump, and it had a minimal impact on the election. It also helped that Biden came out the next day and called all Trump supporters trash. 
 However, I still think whoever vetted the jokes was dumb to let that one be allowed.  Should of been clear as day the left would of used that as an opportunity.  He is funny though he is known for aggressive jokes.  
 The lady who cuts my hair is from Ukraine. She told me that her mother passed away recently from a heart attack and she hasn't been able to see her since 2019 because of COVID-19, then the war. Since the war started, I have seen the physical impact it's had on her just from the stress alone. She has probably lost 20 pounds and aged a lot since the war started. She has a lot of family in Ukraine. The last time I saw her, she said she was voting for Trump. I told her to be positive that things would get better. I said that 2025 was going to be a great year and she might be able to visit her family. I really hope Trump finds a way to end the war. Today, thinking about her having some hope, it makes me happy. https://i.nostr.build/CFjwTEusQO5CAKO8.jpg

 More evidence they cheated in 2020. Trump with 1-2 million less votes compared to 2020, but somehow 20 million voters less for the Democrats. Yea 2020 was definitely rigged. Biden got a lot of fake votes. No way 20 million voters didn't turn up this time around. https://i.nostr.build/UwBpIvOhNansCg1q.jpg
https://v.nostr.build/e8PFQrjOwAHpZUpn.mp4
 
 She got the same amount of votes on average as past Dems so your over estimating it. 2020 was an outliner of fake voting or peak Trump hate.
https://i.nostr.build/YNA8HfDe5jAZWgaG.jpg 
 Yes with a big side of fraud. 15-20 million is a lot of voters to just disappear. Trump hate is still very much there...... 2020 going stand out like a sore thumb for decades. 
 Those messages are still being pushed though. 15 million just dropped off from this hate fuel? Very hard to believe but it doesn't matter. We move forward. 
 No mask of covid restrictions. 100,000s more poll watchers and massive amounts of lawyers on stand by who also won a bunch of cases where shenigans were being tried in trump areas to extend voting 
 For popular vote?  
 Someone charted it by just taking the official numbers. I actually think Trump had some decent fraud on his side in 2020 too based on his high number as well but Biden just did it at 2x the scale.

 I think in 2020 there was fraud on both sides; even Trump's numbers were too high for the average. This time around, it was harder to cheat. With no more Covid restrictions, there can be poll watchers everywhere. A bunch of laws and court battles since 2020 have ensured less mail-in voting fraud. It seems like it was also too big to rig. Maybe you are right, though - maybe they did not want to win and will stop faking the job numbers now and let the economy crash under Trump. We shall see how it plays out. I'd be happy with small wins, like Ross out on day one and RFK Jr. making major reforms at the FDA, and replacing older Supreme Court justices who are going to retire with younger ones to ensure there is a majority of conservative judges. I have little hope, though, that they will actually cut government spending. 
 Fair enough. We will see on day one what we are in store for. Free Ross, or it was all BS. 
 Trump wins. Its time to bring him home
https://i.nostr.build/3GHuUt9bzxLQw1U4.jpg 
 Everyone should be on top of him if he doesn't get out on Day 1. I'll be the first to do so. We will know if this term will be legit or bs based on that day 1  
 I think the most interesting story about the election is that there were 150,000+ more Amish registered to vote compared to 2020, and they probably helped Trump win Pennsylvania. They raided an Amish farm recently over Raw Milk. Do not fuck with the Amish

We only had one test remaining. She said she was experiencing period pain and that it would likely yield another negative result. So, I already fell asleep when she woke me up to ask if I could help her read the test. I wasn't fully awake yet so my mind wasn't processing much. I got out of bed to look at the test results, seeing two lines with one being very faint. That still counts as positive result. Not wanting to get my hopes too high, we drove to Walgreens at 2am and purchased more tests. Did we take enough tests? 😂 All of them came back positive. Tears of joy. I'm going to become a Dad! What an incredible feeling it is.

I listened to this podcast recently. Fiat foods really are killing us. Woman with irregular periods this is worth a listen.
