Gm nostriches!!! Someone on the bird app just asked for advice, someone replied with a book recommendation, which I responded to with a link to a paper I wrote linking the concept from this book to bitcoin.
Today, my work is done, well that and getting the kid’s hair cut. #dadduties #grownostr #academicnerd
Feeling like it would be kind of awesome to be in Montreal right now. So much Canadian #bitcoin signal from there this weekend. Can’t wait to get some content. @MADEX@FRANCIS@CBP@BTCsessions and @joey
Started explaining communism to my 11 year old, yes there is no private property, you don’t really own anything I said (apologies for the simplification), “what about clothes? That is just weird”, she said, to which I said, “yes it is, I couldn’t explain why people think it is a good idea, unless, just maybe if they already don’t have clothes and are envious of those with clothes, it seems like a good idea to vote someone in who will aim to redistribute the clothes. https://image.nostr.build/ece91023915d55730fd71250defb5bd9f2f484153691d1d40521a184fc33257b.jpg
Gm nostriches, #coffeechain clicked the grey matter into gear already,
In all honestly, while the contribution your employer makes to your pension, in fiat terms feels like a good deal, do you honestly think it will be well managed and they have any incentives to work to beat inflation while taking their sweet sweet fees?
This is a trap to convince you the fiat mine has your best interests at heart. Reduce your exposure to the fiat monster, even if you can’t withdraw what you’ve put in already, stop contributing any more. Grab some self custody #bitcoin instead.
It’s like free money, except it’s not really free and if you actually understand what money is, you then realise it isn’t actually money either. https://image.nostr.build/07746b0cfe7f155f5a097bcb8614dae0caec1a0ce67559ac80c0a15d6853f32a.jpg
Gm nostriches, @TheRoaringKitty has put together a lovely Easter egg trail of teasers about what he’s planning on doing,could this be t lighting of the blue touch paper that gets the next financial event in motion?The house of cards is in place. My only trade is to reduce my counterparty risk.
Say no to fomo, reduce your exposure where ever possible, then grab some popcorn and enjoy the show. #bitcoin doesn’t need the meme crowd as much as the world needs to own more of a counter party risk free asset that you can self custody.https://x.com/theroaringkitty/status/1790426851409817615?s=46
Fight being the alternative to being overly complacent, fight to develop the protocol, fight to use it as a medium of exchange/unit of account, fight against bad legislation, fight government overreach. Hmm, more sorts of fighting than I originally thought.
Gm nostriches, Twitter may be getting excited about the return of GME’s prodigal sun, which we don’t care about in pura vida land.
Happily two days behind the curve, so I get to go through all @TheRoaringKitty posts in work today. 3 years ago pretty much marked the end of the last #bitcoin bull. Full Bulltard mode engaged. (For the market, not me, I just save in and buy stuff with #btc )
I may not trade or even feel any fomo, doesn’t mean I can’t sit back and enjoy the show in normie land, to be honest, while these degens may ultimately be looking for #bitcoin, I hope they stay away. If they can lean that just taking a few percentages of their “paper gains” and saving them into bitcoin will change their lives, financially and mentally. Have an awesome day out there, stay safe, stay frosty, fight ossification. https://image.nostr.build/dd52969dacb09f1ec41b7b41af4d5973579aaf97e934ed184d73bf96dfc3da2f.jpg
It’s nothing personal, but this fiat, admin, bureaucratic shit you want me doing today; teaching loads, research hour,“mutually agreed redundancy schemes”,I’m just not willing to be part of it. I’ve seen behind the curtain, there is no “wizard”, only fiat bull shit. #bitcoin only, #grownostr #shortfiat https://image.nostr.build/857a58a4e7d8aa99b8066b8c77fc2668e01dc5f8ebf688f3bde217a6cea02dc8.jpg
My own learning ranks highest, but it takes more work, maybe pushed towards it be person I know first, then if I know the celebrity/digital public figure from their work, they will influence me to start learning about a particular topic, unless I’m in full degen, bulltard mode and buy anything someone of YouTube talks about (although hopefully those days are behind me now)

With the kids getting scouting badges at #churchstr. Maybe they don’t like “don’t trust, verify”, but happier with “stay humble”.
Also, very much agree with their view on taxation, thou shall not steal (the fruits of other’s labour)
And thou shall not kill (either by bombing other countries “for peace” or supplying others with weapons, funded by the stolen labour of others)
May also add, thou shalt keep one’s nose out of the business of others. If thou thinkest a crime has been committed, please present evidence before restricting my freedom to transact privately. https://image.nostr.build/16a35b2ae16a9af9207286b3881900d47d2f1a1491a05243058e808c554ed3ad.jpg
Most British thing I’ve experience in a while:
Two dudes waiting for the single toilet, women/disabled toilet is empty with no queue.
Me: are you going to sneak in there?
Guy in queue: oh no, what happens if some needs it?
Me: will say it was empty or that I’m disabled!!!
I left with the guys still queuing to piss. I don’t know if they were sheep or just spaced out on a Saturday, but happy to be able to say I was the toilet rebel. Not saying anything about being ungovernable, I’m still pretty British!!!! 🇬🇧
Love seeing a reference to #ftx in the normal media #theweek. Hope that even if they are getting all their money back, the degens that went deep into FTT token learn a lesson, also, maybe some volatility is on its way, unless it is a repeat of the “oh shit, #mtgox is paying creditors” fud.
Stay humble out there. https://image.nostr.build/b2d56aa597090d581e995a7d9e1c64848831efd0a143b3e3f32fed8fd1de28e7.jpg
