The reactions to this Saylor podcast with Saifedean are humorous. We're really surprised the guy who took out billions in debt to buy bitcoin is open to a future world with debt? No shit.

Every now and then, I hear someone say "Oh you know, bitcoin is still just an experiment." That was true back in the day, but there is no such thing as a trillion-dollar experiment. Too much is riding on it. It absolutely has to work.

Popeye deserves better.

So an Austrian economist, a communist, and a bitcoiner walk into a bar. They order a round of drinks and then decide to close out. The bartender is busy and refuses to ring them up separately. He asks them to pay on a single tab. The Austrian economist reaches in his pocket. He gets out some gold coins and says to the others, "Here you go. This is just enough to cover mine." The communist shakes his head. "How about this?" he says. "What if we all empty our pockets, pool our resources together, and pay the tab out of that." The Austrian economist balks at that and the two of them start arguing. They both look at the bitcoiner to decide what to do. The bitcoiner stands up from his barstool. "Don't worry, fellas," he says. "This one's on me." He walks behind the bar, rolls up his sleeves, and immediately starts doing the dishes.

Chills. #tunestr

It's always a funny feeling when you stand there filling up a glass from your stainless steel fridge and you look up at the top edge and see pawprints.

After all the snap elections abroad in which people drop what they're doing and go vote, it's humorous to then have the U.S. go through the long ordeal of a presidential campaign. Meanwhile, America has such an outsized influence on internet culture. The rest of the world has to ride along with each twist and turn on the timeline. Right now, the nation is basically that person on Facebook who keeps debating out loud whether to get back with their godawful ex or the uninspiring android the dating algorithm coughed up. It's all so tiresome and the most American thing ever.

Fantastic points from @rabble on Nostr deletion and how it provides an alternative to cancel culture. Revisions are healthy. https://habla.news/rabble/on-delete

Shoutout to my Carolina Panthers. #NFL Worst team of the league last year and we're running it back in Week 1. Down 37-3 so far. We started out with nothing and we still got most of it left!

They say the grass is always greener on the other side, but they don't say anything about the price candles.

If you could pill someone on just one thing, which would you choose: #bitcoin or #nostr?

Nostr is censorship resistant because we only talk about Nostr. What else is there to censor?

Censorship resistance is only part of the problem. The other part is having something to say.

GM. If you have someone in your life who loves you, that is worth more than all the bitcoin in the world.

The Nostr scaling argument is funny. Just two weeks ago, people were saying Nostr was dead from too much bitcoin content. Which is it, dead or alive? I guess we'll have to settle for Schrödinger's protocol for now.

This is an informative video on how the two major parties are changing. They're breaking down strongly across gender lines. It also helps explain why many people say dating is hard nowadays.

I keep hearing people say Nostr's boring and they're not getting enough engagement. Here's a hack to help you generate engagement: 1) Log into your Twitter account 2) Copy all posts sitting in "Drafts" 3) Share them here 4) Figure out months later you can't delete anything 5) Panic Follow me for more insights on Nostr and content creation.

It's pretty ironic that the Statue of Liberty came from France...
