Gm nostriches, overall a good, if busy day yesterday, enjoying being the loan parent for once, even if there was still more drama than i’d like, but useful being the parent who can deal with, rather than create it, 🤫 Took a quick look at the news last night and things had progressed quickly in No.10, cabinet members breaking ranks, more letters submitted and this morning she requisite number has been reached, Mr Starmer, Mr calm, Mr No Drama is now in the thick of his procedural, no backbone, election drumming, no leadership malaise, and the mindless mass of Labour MPs see their gravy train of high wages and minimal work coming to an end. Giving me vibes of 2022 (not gonna lie, some of those sweet sweet cheap sats wouldn’t go a miss right now), the wild thing is there is NO ONE to replace him, all the alternatives are even more feckless than he is, he has procedures (and in theory a career as a lawyer), the rest have hardly got a hard day’s work and a brain cell between them. In 2024, the loveless landslide elected reliable Keir, this sailed the ship even further into the shit. Was this our “let’s elect Biden” moment and we’ve realised we made a big big mistake? GBP holding steady, 10y gilts screaming higher, GBP/btc about to make non bag holders weep into their bags of retirement savings. Blighty on its way to going good nighty!!!!

Gm nostriches, after one too many on Friday have been feeling it, even so had some fun over the weekend with the daughters but really wasn’t prepared for last night. Getting ready for bedtime at 9pm and the eldest goes outside to be sick (she just happens to have a fear/maybe phobia of being sick). 😳 Then spent the next two plus hours walking her around, talking her down from a ledge of “this is the worst day of my life” and finally calmed her enough to get into bed, with the cat doing her magic and sleeping on the end of her bed. If there was ever a sign that short time preference multi beer nights have to stop, I think I just had it loud a clear. Tricky additional bind, “don’t tell mum”, but “I’m glad you’re with my dad”. 🥰 In the breach.

Ga nostriches, been out in the sun with the younglings after a significantly more expensive Sunday roast!!! I want them to stay in business, but over £21 for a roast feels like they did a recalculation from when I went a couple of months ago, free kids desserts no longer offered, desserts £8 each. This is the onwards march of a currency collapsing. It was good and the kids loved it, so no bother from me, but an interesting data point! After catching up with swan live, @Michael Saylor appeared to make some good points, but from watching his keynote, it is just a marketing pitch for strk, wtf!!!!!! This is a bitcoin conference, not a fucking yield on dollars conference. Then shitcoin “innovation of solana” 😳 layer 3? 🧐 didn’t we learn from maximising yield from blockfi and all the bollocks defi projects from 2022?!????!!?!? Waiting it out until he drops the July 4th Easter egg, just to confirm for myself. What? Just giving everyone a high interest, maybe government saving account? Feels like the banking lobby won’t be happy, probably wise MS doesn’t plan a trip on Jamie Dimon’s boat anytime soon! Sounds a lot like bitbonds to me!

@FOMO21 , for reasons i shall not explain here or now, I’ve not worn a bitcoin t shirt for nearly 8 months, and mother fuck, does it ever feel good to get back into one. Now to see if the kids notice.

Don’t let the fiat brain within you take away the peace of living on a bitcoin standard (if you have more than you had yesterday, all is good). Put your bitcoin stack out of sight (particularly of the tax authorities, after paying all taxes, obviously), then allow yourself to be calm, breathe deeply. You will wake up tomorrow, your family will still love you, so go spend some time with them. When bitcoin price is ready, we can decide what to do with it, but until then, eat some steak, do some press ups, drink some wine. A little more time in work then off home to save the house from the eldest and pick up the youngest from a friend, then daddy daughter pizza and movie night.

Gm nostriches, happy freakin’ Friday. Enjoy the fresh air, enjoy the sun, even if it may not be that warm. Already looking interesting, and while voting just feels like “the illusion of choice”, it does provide a relatively strong message to both the current party in power but also the markets on how the populous is feeling. Also love wales and Scotland didn’t count overnight, because their finances are so fucked, neither can afford to pay overtime to counters….. Surprised that Labour is only down 50%. Concerned that Reform have to actually get their act together on a large scale to show in two years that are actually capable of governing. Relieved that the marketing of Greens to the lowest common denominator has a flaw; societies biggest leeches don’t have sufficient drive to actually get out and vote. 🫡🙌😘 Final teaching Friday of the year, so far, no students have turned up as no attendance points this week. They appeared a few minutes late and had a pretty good conversation. #coffeechain healing my hurts, the mental citadel is my church, because tonight…….. beer and popcorn!

Even a monkey, or like me, a dog, tapping prompts into an AI engine will eventually produce an image of value. If we take a step back, take a deep breath, consider what we have control of, then buy some bitcoin, You only have the part of your mind that rejects reason to over come to arrive at inner peace. Inspired by meditations. Marcus Aurelius, daily stoicism. Freaks, stack harder.

Gm nostriches. Happy Thursday to all those who celebrate, was “guided” towards joining a school trip with the youngest, thought “I get to” so “why not”, so no biking just standard stuff while #wifestr prepares for a few days away with siblings. 🫡 But that’s so mundane compared to the local, Welsh and Scottish elections, serious swings could take place, given these smaller elections tend to get more of the “extremes” out. Reform and greens look like they could do well, but short term that is just the driver of the next chapter. Keir will likely continue to dig his heals in (boring don’t care) everything grinds downwards, twitchy bond markets will see where things are going, uncertainty combined with likely more spending (green local councils will literally implode once they get any power ), so then at a larger scale, bond are connected with this, if you lend money to the government you have to believe in the unit of account (see my read, sorry graphs aren’t there), but how will old GBP get treated. I for one will likely take the chance to offload some, while there is still an exchange rate to btc, or gold (let’s be honest). When the dust settles after today, people will need to make decisions, 1) how the country will look and what we can do 2) how to protect the value of your time and energy (off the books money likely the way forward) and ultimately 3) whether you want to take a front row seat as wealth gets criminalised (maybe an extreme word, but I’m not leaving money in sight to find out) so get out, i bet Kate the Russian and @Basalto Fund are doing a brisk business with us Brits at the moment (need to sort this, Mstr heavy isa needs to sort itself out) 🫡🙌 Anyways, take it easy freaks, wish me luck with a class of 9 year olds that aren’t mine (remember, I get to, @Guy Swann ), and grab a #coffeechain and enjoy the show from where ever you may be. If you have a sofa to crash on in another country, I may look you up!! Finally, saw a video on a restomod f355. Lambo, you ain’t seeing any of my money when bitcoin reaches fair value (♾️)
