 Bro did you know that this is what Mrs fields looks like? I always thought it was some old lady. 👵 lol https://image.nostr.build/a4580c8cf6c099d0ac337f2b8646cc0d46574b52af7285b94aac4f10c2f09754.jpg

 Women are taking it now as well. People finally figured out it’s safe and effective and demand has exploded. 
 Every bottle here will be opened at specific bitcoin price targets. @BenJustman's bottle is reserved for 10 million per coin. 🪙 https://image.nostr.build/04539559d5b0f55ab47fb9f09682c895c9ced6955468133bad65636b8abe4606.jpg  
 What do you recommend? 
 Thanks for the rec I’ll pick up a bottle 
 I’m doing a similar thing 
 Yep they’re in a fridge 
 My man 
 Rogan was insufferable as well. Overall a pretty bad interview. I think they need a do over. 
 Instead of frequently doing/joining Twitter Spaces, I'm thinking of firing up #Nostr Nests going ... 
 I’ll do more nests too if someone reminds me how to do it lol 😂 
 A man with experience need never bow to a man with an opinion. 
 I would say the opposite. We’ve been listening too much. Listening to too much bullshit. 
 “Trading Bitcoin is the sign of a lesser intellect” - Michael Saylor 

“If you trade Bitcoin you’re fucking retarded” - American Hodl 
 No I wouldn’t. I don’t believe in handouts. 
 I would have been successful with or without bitcoin. 

That said Bitcoin is a 10x multiplier while at the same time freeing all of my time. 

It was a very welcome addition to my life and helped me get where I was going much faster and with much less effort. 
 Hard to say honestly, but probably still running my production business and investing in ETFs 
 Rogan keeps on talking about the wonder of the pyramids - how it makes no sense how they were bui... 
 I know it’s so dumb

Joe we built the Hoover dam, the Panama Canal, the international space station, the James Webb space telescope. 

The pyramids are not that complicated. 
 It was as if Rogan is hearing some of these ideas for the first time, when they’re old ideas to everyone else. Pretty boring interview because of Rogan. He was trying to show thiel he was smart. He should have been asking thiel more questions. Thiel is a lot smarter than he is. 
 looks crankin’ nostr:note15nm5tv5s5pv4476wkpm7e49kagfvyl9ka9g5yqxpeeql85k8uwase5d8tt 
 Btw Nashville beefsteak was excellent. Didn’t get a chance to say hi because you were busy af. 
 I know man I could tell lol you crushed it though. Food was excellent. 
 It’s a tradition we call being the fucking man 
 The deficits they ran 5-10 years is the inflation you're paying today.

 lol 😂 
 The decisions you made five or ten years ago is what you’re living today. 
 Absolutely the upward spiral is real 
 I have two phones. One with everything I consider addictive, bad for mental health, a waste of time etc… and one with all the things that make everyday life more useful. It’s a good system. 
 Make babies, without babies everything you are doing is kind of pointless. 
 Yes necessarily 
 Hodl jambalaya recipe

I forgot the original recipe years ago so here it is from memory 

- 1 red bell pepper 
- 1 green bell pepper 
- 1 white onion
- 1 large stalk of celery
- 1 can diced tomatoes 
- 1 can tomato paste 
- 1-2lb chicken breast
- 1 large andouille sausage 
- 4 cups bone broth 
- 2 cups white rice 
- 2-4 tbsp lard or duck fat

1. Chop up all the veggies and sausage and chicken and shit.
2. Heat up a pot on medium high add lard or duck fat (I prefer duck fat usually)
2. Add sausage and fry until crispy
3. Take cooked sausage out and set in a bowl in the fridge for later. 
4. Add chopped onion to fat and fry until golden brown.
5. Add tomato paste and fry that up also.
6. Add bell peppers.
7. Add celery.
8. Add diced tomatoes. 
9. Add broth. 
10. Add all your spices (garlic, pepper, zattarans, old bay, hot sauce, ghost pepper, msg) and Bring to a boil. 
11. Reduce to low/simmer
12. Stir occasionally over the next 1-2 hours 
13. Add rice. 2 methods. You can add the rice to the jambalaya and cook over medium stirring until done. This imparts more flavor. Or You can be lazy and cook the rice in a rice cooker and just dump it in near the end. I usually do it the lazy way lol 
14. Add the sausage back in, stir and plate 
15. Enjoy! nostr:note1l65eyd23c3uxjgap3jeugypp0zk5ekj8zeuaryhvvvpndvnqheks9gwvs5 
 Shit I forgot a step. After you add the broth add the chicken. 
 How do I do that? 
 It’s so fucking good 
 Come over I got leftovers lol 
 If the bugs tasted this good I would eat them lol 
 Chicken, sausage on this one. I usually throw in shrimp if it’s just me eating it, but my wife doesn’t like it. 
 Everything is better on the bge 
 You can usually get it without shrimp most places it’s so bomb you gotta try it 
 I wanna make drip chili where you cook the meat over it 🤤 
 It was so good 🤤 
 Fuck I forgot how much I love clam chowder 
 I do everything in here lol 
 Making jambalaya on Saturday. Listening to podcasts about AI. Life’s good. https://image.nostr.build/138b862370bae9b06b4ca4aab67f0f71eafdd001a51069d84fbf774fe33db42f.jpg  
 @TheGuySwann he has the best ai podcast imo. Keeps me up to date. 
 Not sure I can fuck with Nola, but it’s pretty damn good. 
 I’m going streaking later… 
 Been thinking of making myself unzappable again. 

I've never been a big fan of receiving tips. 
 Just zap them all back in a pay it forward fashion. That’s what I do. 
 Listened to Peter thiel on Rogan, what was interesting to me is that thiel, despite being one of the richest people on earth and most influential people in tech was visibly nervous for the first hour of the pod. 

Really shows the power of Rogans platform. 
 Yeah he settled into his regular routine about an hour in. Before that though he was much more nervous than usual. 
 Running palantir will do that to you 
 His longtime friend Reid Hoffman likely is, but what’s the info on thiel. First I’m hearing that. 
 There is a lot of weird underage stuff in the gay community so you’re not wrong to be suspect but I think thiel is not. just my personal opinion. 
 In n out is the perfect fast food cheeseburger and it isn’t even close. 

East coasters in heavy denial over this one. 
 I think they’re pretty consistent. Haven’t had one from Texas though. That’s a bit far from home. 
 Neapolitan shake + animal fries for the win 
 Guilty pleasure of mine as well. That’s usually my go to move in airports. Nothing like paying $24 for a double whopper during a layover lol 
 Connecticut also has very good pizza 
 Dude I’m not even joking, I literally just bought one of these before I saw this post lol https://image.nostr.build/436ef4230e6298eb8616ce12c0327185ccd4cf0e8a9e363e91793ed746732bc1.jpg  
 I like the act of uncorking the bottle with one of these. Uncorking it with an electric one feels gay as hell lol 😂 
 I had this very nice bottle with a friend recently and it was opened tableside with a $10 opener. The way it should be. nostr:nevent1qqsryzf8ydmlgsdumw5n6aayqtwucjqpffq6xmeldpa7ugtcrjjzevgpvemhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0dec82c33wf6xcutrvyu8ydnpw4ukzae4dc6ksvmvx56ryvnyd568xunex4j85en9v56rvwfkveck2wrnxeckwatyddenwer2w3n8x0mzwfhkzerrv9ehg0t5wf6k2qgcwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8xmn0wf6zuum0vd5kzmqpr9mhxue69uhhqatjv9mxjerp9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsq3gamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7mh68eh 
 It's hard to overstate how insanely excited I was for the Nintendo 64 when it came out.

I played... 
 Ocarina of time. Enough said. 
 I bought a switch and played through the whole thing again as an adult. Great nostalgia. 
 Living this way is fucking retarded. Pray for your normie friends. They’re fucked. https://image.nostr.build/ff581f4edb437f2b1120fb04cff3fedafec2601b0aa9149c2b461a1de3cedb94.jpg  
 I’ll take the 1’s and 0’s all day 
 Hodling is so hard people don’t even believe you do it lol 😂 
 I wouldn’t worry about this too much as a fud item. Whatever the Marshalls are selling is likely going straight into black rocks / fidelities hands otc nostr:note1f3e7z5d58gnmw4es90mx6vrytyqq4xwuvrdc4l8t7xgvazpy8veqzy0sgl 
 I feel like the 20th century may have been the most lit century ever. 
 Yeah but with less cool smoking and drinking lol 😂
