me, being a master outdoorsman, sat by the fire, and lit my sock on fire. 🔥

til, a mayoral candidate in Germany was banned from running ( democracy my ass ) because he was a Lord of the Rings fan, and attended a works of JRR Tolkien event where “questionable people” attended. i am so over these ubër Karens running around telling everyone what they can say, think, and do.

when i fire up my laptop, it starts a tmux session that cycles through psalms, proverbs, and the book of john, then starts an ssh session to a server where i can browse RSS feeds, download media, and convert it to formats which are 25 to 5 percent their original size before rsyncing them locally, and listening offline. i like it alot.

well, my good will toward Trump after the Epstien cover-up lasted for a couple hours after he told the UN how retarded they are. Then he opens his dumb fat face, and goes full pro-Ukraine war. Done.

anyone out there still listening to the Grima Wormtongue media?

buying lots of bitcoin does not make a bitcoin expert. at best, it makes a successful speculator. I would think people who weigh in on protocol changes would at least know what CheckTxInputs is.

i obtained one of these in a weird trade of sorts. it was one of the most boring, non-descript cars in 1978 when it was made, but made interesting and rare by time. i drove it for a while, made some improvements, and sold it to a Philippine gentleman who tried to talk me down. I added $50 to the price every time he did. He burst out laughing, and paid my original asking price.

someone please remind the youngsters about “do one thing and do it well” as opposed to “check out my massive, bloated circus software project that does 271/2 things mostly well”

the idea that you have a moral responsibility to know about all the dumb shit going on in the world is more retarded than repeatedly licking an electric fence.

i hate to say it, but it kinda seems like corporate bitcoin is starting to reshape the average bitcoiner into something about as interesting to me as the average wall street trader. which is to say, not at all. cypherpunks. not timeshare condo conference attendees please 🙏

thinking about the concerted effort to discredit crowd sourced, open intelligence and journalism. because theorization goes off in many directions, some of them pretty crazy, centralized powers try to use this to say, “they are all ‘conspiracy theorists’ you can only trust us, the experts.” This is thinking from a previous era, put forward by those who want to cling to power. just like music companies, movie companies, bankers, politicians, and any other group, which stands to lose control, due to social and technological change. Decentralized journalism, intelligence, and investigation is the norm now. It comes with its own set of pitfalls, that every sovereign person has a personal responsibility to learn how to wade through, but the time of ‘just trusting the experts’ is over.

pick up your cross, and follow Him.
