Come on freaks, join some coins, obfuscate or onchain connections with of data. This is you opportunity, don’t end up with a pile of cucked, kyc’d bitcoin that will be surveilled. Well, two close blocked don’t help, but still, coin joins aren’t getting any cheaper!!!!

Gm nostriches, #coffeechain and coldstorage for the win. The joys of marking continue, slipped a little in yesterday, hopefully get some more done today, but also now deep into the final chapter and come up against a question. I keep tagging @knutsvanholm for medium of exchange through time 🫡🙌, but can’t find the podcast it was referenced in…… any help? #aksnostr I can’t just drop a bomb like that and not evidence my sources, I’m a credible, academic dog don’t you know!!!!

Gm nostriches, looking ahead to a little teaching today, helping some fundamentally unacademic students get some real world experience, working on starting their own businesses for half a term with the help of mentors and support…………. Brother sent me the opportunity cost of private school and university (in US), but same issue largely, how to tell the kids that not just having a go at a business without the massive loans is the much better option, fail, learn, improve. I can only add so much value to the process. Cognitive dissonance setting on high!!! Going to tell my brother “it’s all about the life experience and network connections his sons will make” Me: right, off to state school, education standard may be shit, but at least I can teach an give you bitcoin I bought with the money I saved on your tuition!!!!

Me wondering whether to see what my pension is doing after the last week or so in fiat land.

Great work @TFTC @Marty Bent and @_Checkɱate 🔑⚡🌋☢️🛢️ on the current state of on chain. Helping me get a little perspective, “you can only control your feelings and your actions” (sorry for error in the exact words). Only thing I’m feeling and I’m worried about is the level of fiat left in the bank account that people will start to notice and bills don’t get paid.

Gm nostriches, weather in the process of showing how grim it can be. #coffeechain helping my start my day right before I must return to the pile of marking at work that is already having to be balanced against teaching in later in the week. Feeling like some of the marking may have to come home, the university squeeze on time is setting in. Have never had to do this in all the time I’ve been a lecturer. Actually scratch that, the only reason I’m bringing stuff home is because I’m working on my book in the office as it’s more fun!!!

Ge nostriches, hope y’all had an awesome weeknd, even with the shittty weather. Cooked up some beef with some Yorkshire puddings. Even if your weekend wasn’t the best, remember, no matter how shit it’s been, probably a world away from Starmlin’s weekend. No surprised that after giving “full confidence”, the sacrificial resignation of Morgan mcsweeney just wreaks of a scapegoat play, so obviously a last ditch effort that no one believes. Sitting here, in my lane, happy I don’t need the government for my employment or my money.

Phew 😮‍💨, and for a moment there, I was worried we were entering a miner death spiral 🌀. Lucky I didn’t lose any sleep over it. Going to be enjoying a little boost in miner revenue (sats denominated, ovi) but when difficulty restarts it’s onwards march, so be it.

Gm nostriches, catching up on a little Friday night tv with a show I used to enjoy, The Last Leg, so Flippin’ annoying at times. They don’t mention it often, but consistently, why the heck do they choose to open the show with a reference to a 50% bitcoin dip. Someone on the team knows and are choosing to spread the news to an audience, likely media consumers and no coiners, to add a little fear in the mix, because comments like that aren’t really that funny, unless you know a 50% drop from ATH is nothing to worry about. Who is suggesting they put this pro fiat currency propaganda into a show that should be sharing the news. FYI freaks, bitcoin is doing a hell of a lot better in the freedom front than any of your beloved, “safe” fiat currencies. I watch the show to just laugh at how they get so annoyed with so many things, “orange man is awful”, yes, so don’t give him space in your brain!!!

Ga nostriches, a good bit of afternoon, rainy day fun with the eldest playing #risk. Didn’t hold back, forgot the ceasefire card, but ended with her having 98 game pieces, me with 99 (the imaginary 3rd player only had 40). Felt bad trying quite so hard, but impressed is was so close by the end. Finished with a three eyed snake telling me my turn was over in style. 🫡🙌 Freaks, make time for your kids, these moments won’t last forever (unless you raise your kid and they want to continue with the games as an adult!!!!)

Gm nostriches, calm Saturday, starting the reduced monthly run to on 5k, with further support from new comfier shoes…….. also went for speed over distance (any young uns out there, not comments, I’m old and broken) Weird enjoying the exposure of the proof of weapons network and the destruction of uk politics from with (bet he wishes Burnham wasn’t blocked, 🤦‍♂️). Students weren’t ready for me to be quite so brutally honest about my views on “the public sector” and government. Hmmm, should I be waiting for a complaint? But then, living in a city whose council is bankrupt, why on earth would they spend so much on this shit!!?!?!?!? That’s either more council tax or more debt. Light night, but looks like some form of riot!!!! Anyways, Stay humble out there freaks.

Ge nostriches, dinner out with fam for pizza m, back home with the #catstr and a nice little whiskey.
