I have always thought that ideologies were stupid, and that the stupidest forms of ideology were based around individualism. Think about it. To adopt an established ideology, you need to buy into the COLLECTIVELY agreed-upon value system. And you subject yourself to being judged by that collective according to your adherence to those values. Is there anything funnier than a body of peers telling you that you aren't being a good "individual"?

Bitcoiners: "Bitcoin is an amazing anti-fragile alternative currency technology driven purely by code and human profit incentives."

I have to start a JOB in five days. I mean, I don't HAVE to. UGH. Why can't I be like my cool internet friends and sling bullshit wellness goop to idiots wanting to spend bitcoin. GOSH.

My wife has ghost-illustrated children's books. She tried her hand at authoring/illustrating her own book with the writing assistance of AI. Early feedback is that the illustrations are on point, but the copy is predictably AI-sloppy. So now I'm a children's book writer. Halp.

The cult-to-streaming pipeline is too dry. TOO DRY. We needs more cults to satiate our voyeuristic desire to consume the misery they create.

If I ever attend the conference, please don't hesitate to shoot me on sight, for I already belong to the dead.

I don't know about you guys, but the more I spend time on nostr, the more it feels like how the Ron Paul movement radicalized itself into full-on irrelevant schizophrenic moonbats obsessed with spiritual awakenings, buying farms and wellness goop. View quoted note →

Paul Storcz has entered the phase in his rebirth cycle where he gets tired of insulting Bitcoin developers and, like a retarded Phoenix rising from the ashes of his immolated reputation, runs back to shitcoining.
