How do I add GIFs to posts and replies on #Nostr ? Asking for myself.

The problem in fighting for the freedom of others is wanting it more than they do. Most people don't actually want to be free. They want to believe they are safe. Even if it's in the warm embrace of familiar chains.

"You were in the military, how can you support Bitcoin after being part of the government?" Someone asked me this when I was presenting at a conference, and it's a good question. Here are a few bullet points: >Military veterans are individuals, like everyone else. The government is the government. We are people. >Veterans have been inside of the most destructive machine on the planet. Now we're out. We have a unique perspective of the inner workings of this system. This perspective is tremendously valuable. KYE >Veterans have a front row seat to the brokenness of the fiat system and its dehumanizing effect on individuals. We see the problem clearly. And we're pissed about it. >Everyone comes from somewhere and all traveled a path to get to Bitcoin: -Shitcoiners -GoldBugs -Legacy Banking Executives -IRS Agents > #Bitcoin is for everyone. Military veterans are here. We're not leaving. And more of us are getting on the mission everyday. We're fighting for your freedom and the freedom of your grandchildren.

One of my favorite non-Bitcoin books by Jocko Willink that aligns with #Bitcoin principles: 🟠Decentralized Command 🟠Proof of Work 🟠Check the ego 🟠Discipline equals freedom 🟠Hold the line image

Do we really expect a wave of Tik Tok users to come flooding into #nostr? It's like expecting someone when eats at McDonald's every day to start eating whole foods when they can't get Big Macs when we all know, they'll just go to Burger King instead.

Humble. This was my gym for about two years. I've moved up to a few dumbbells, an ab wheel, a wooden box to jump on and a pull-up bar. But I won't forget the work that can be done with 50 pounds of sand and a plunger handle with some painters tape wrapped around it. image

Technology is cool. Meeting and following Bitcoiners online is informative and inspiring. But there's no substitute for sharing physical space, making eye contact, cracking jokes, breathing the same oxygen with other humans who are on a shared mission. Bitcoin is for humans.

How about we slow things down just a little bit. I'm not done stacking over here.
