 Family holidays goals, steak and Peony Lane Cab Sav. Mother stole the remainder of father’s Chardonnay. #grownostr with #bitcoin wine https://image.nostr.build/a76194448546f376168af78b172e5feb84bba8d7a4fee62d9f99601c2f72e47a.jpg https://image.nostr.build/5246243873bb6488889777661f009b9acb578a4f58a106f6c6f1e429a3edf3b5.jpg  
 Paul McKenna (a British hypnotist): it is not about the lambo, that will lose value, you don’t need, you probably won’t enjoy and will lose a shit ton of your time value.

It is about securing your time into the future, so you’re not fighting against the tide inflation.

It is about knowing you no longer have to chase fiat gains in your fiat mine, contributing to a pension that will never afford you the quality of life you are working towards. #bitcoin is about securing your time with your legacy. 

Ngu is a fiat characteristic. But you can do that in your flippin’ lit lake house. https://image.nostr.build/4618bc7ceedb815a664e387991fa26acc24492bff422e1ea1770f8de7fdee83e.jpg  
 Gm nostriches from NC. Going to miss the #eclipsestr today, but my retinas will thanks me. Beginning to accept that if there was an option, I wouldn’t say no to a lake house!!! #grownostr #coffeechain https://image.nostr.build/462c655b9636d7931d70f61a19b0cac224d2d5ff2a3289f4d914ddc5165774c5.jpg  
 Ossification is one thing, incremental, variance reducing, super high reliability system style improvement (sorry done some work in this area) is another thing and definitely not ossification. 
 Shot in foot realisation. So, who is going to call Saylor a larp? 
 😵‍💫 
 Still waiting for a zap from Marty. 🫡

 Listening to @ODELL and @MartyBent , and the argument for supporting Open Sats and bitcoin developers is too strong to ignore supporting the maintenance of the network that backs my #bitcoin . Why doesn’t @saylor and the “bitcoin development company” $mstr appreciate this ?

Now there are ETFs, I think there is an argument for share holder activitism, even with the strong argument for mstr over an etf. Thoughts @DrJeff ?

 🧐 
 Very good points made, but rather than Bitcoin development being about tinkering, “getting one of your upgrades into core”, or implementing what your benefactor wants, how’s about viewing it as maintaining the skills, competences and capabilities to be able to make changes if particular issues arise in the future. If we ossify and developers disband, there will be no one left with the ability, if, in a particular scenario where “Bitcoin had to be saved” 
 One of them definitely does, 
 🤙 
 Great work from @CBP and @joey on reviewing the current economic situation. “Yeah, I’m enjoying my steak and sparkling water (on credit), so anyone catch the came last night?”, 

It’s bread and circuses times boys, right before they do a 6102 on you and seize ALL your assets. This is not a drill.

 Gm nostriches, mid jet lag after landing into Charlotte NC yesterday. Hoping the breakfast will get me going. #grownostr #coffeechain https://image.nostr.build/fc2f76e3c0dc8676f3fcefa27a1bb3a50331ed157d9519630b066085b45ef7b9.jpg

 Happy Friday freaks and in particular @BlockwareTeam, getting some new random number generating servers online (naming is actually very important, cheers Bob Burnett and @CBP ).

 Gm nostriches!!! Finished fiat mining for a week, admin mountain defeated yesterday, final packing today then heading to a night in a hotel tomorrow before flight on Saturday. But first, #coffeechain https://image.nostr.build/68b1c6e730d5b17bd26acb517677a0194feec496aac1e7e000ea5b3beb42f68d.jpg  
 Giving another #bloodstr donation today (#88), fun times behind the screen, a pink haired lefty getting scared at the sight of their own blood (how dare you put a needle in me to take blood, you shouldn’t be able to hurt me like that). Ahhh, the freedom to say such things on nostr #grownostr https://image.nostr.build/3ec4d0ff4311dfbfeba0e2df4af4c9335d037431d23c02c122ed8ff84a9a5279.jpg https://image.nostr.build/5d502fa8547543034fb05059370bb5adc5727cf0bd4d5dbc1ea2a0c74153f34e.jpg

 Orange pilling my barber with some rather questionable sunnies on. Being from Kyrgyzstan, I think he got it, didn’t believe in climate change and liked the idea of having money he controlled. Also helped that the last £3 tip from November is now worth over £6. Oh yeah, #bitcoin does loads of great things, so there is also a side effect of that, and that is it goes up in price. Thanks for the cape Hector Alvero #growbitcoin https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/share-bitcoin-with-your-barber-or-stylist https://image.nostr.build/700728f0450cdea81f3d1d865bbb5a54f9ea6f758f358c08c852658eca44b4d4.jpg

 Zap fail. So how many sats are those beauty going to set me back?

 Don’t eat many carbs, but when I do, I make them count. Bacon, avacado and cheese triple decker sandwiches, with middle slice fried in beef tallow. #foodstr #sanwichstr. https://image.nostr.build/7349f29632c18c86918a004c18e8ab8e177a44642804aa22dcf629e8793afb10.jpg https://image.nostr.build/169f6fd5a48dc298226128fcb37ecd165e5c9dfa92b9d088a28259a3e1d2b042.jpg  
 On tiger bread. 
 Needed slightly more bacon, but always looking to improve. Was very good. 
 Happy April nostriches!!! Happy #halfining month, it’s going to be lit 🔥. “Halving” a great start, good night’s sleep, 10k run in the bag and it’s only 11am. Time for another #coffeechain https://image.nostr.build/9e6027e896ee31c000cc5affd04f2d2b6e1bdcc7b50246ae054c8dd4c69210bd.jpg

 Started reading @erikcason #cryptosovereignty. Felt the need to remove more of my economic power from the fiat system and buying some more corn, not buying half and seeing if the price drops, completely price agnostic, dollar value is a concept that is not long for this world, 1 Bitcoin = 1 #bitcoin guys. Read some Bitcoin and maybe think about writing a little Bitcoin as well. Ideas are powerful. https://image.nostr.build/cb1c9f5cdb668abdccb9e6c606088887be694a95ca77c6a859cd447b0ce9491b.jpg  
 Thank you @TheGuySwann and @Gigi  for this fantastic piece and rant. It is not my problem if my opinion is not to your liking, me expressing my opinion in itself should not be a crime, then the whole misgendering…… I tried if fix some work badges. https://fountain.fm/episode/iKJ9O0CtOyYmxt8yxom0 https://image.nostr.build/57920c341b0ee698f76e1b0ee341478b2fb1c5f9a442fc16cdd57b2f8aa548ba.jpg  
 @TheGuySwann worrying developments coming out of the basket case that is Scotland at the moment, following Canada’s questionable lead. Take a step back and think who benefits from this, the police can’t police every post on the internet. Someone hurting my feelings is my problem. In my day we said “sticks and stones will break my bone”, but suppose that’s now hate speech. "that a reasonable person would consider to be threatening or abusive," hmmmmm, I’ve listened to politicians, they are no reasonable, this is a law that will end badly.
