Proof of Work in my new @OPERATION BITCOIN swag.

How quickly we revert to our juvenile need for self deprecating obscenity when the latest rendition of Girls Gone Wild appears on the screen. We must elevate our thinking. Do better.

This album ages well.

@Bitcoin Veterans fixes this.

Nations who are in a continuous state of conflict invariably find themselves in a voluntary military personnel deficit. They'll get the people they need, one way or another.

Congress weighs adding women to the US military draft

A Senate proposal would require some women to register for the military draft.

For all you conspiracy wackos, here's evidence the pyramids weren't built by aliens. Circa 2550 BC, this photo ends the debate. They were built by humans.

No matter what you do, or how much you think you know, to someone else you are a normie.

Monster Magnet on a Monday morning. Magnificent.

Already have the physical copy but after learning the audio is narrated by @TheGuySwann there's no way I could pass up him reading @Lyn Alden's work.

Why would a government automatically register its young people for conscription into the military? Pay attention. Get ready.

The Selective Service should be abolished, not made more efficient and equitable.

House GOP Blasts Biden For Opposing Their Pay Raise For Low-Ranking Troops

While a first reaction may be outrage at the victimization of our troops, I have to wonder about the underlying motive. Clearly the gov can invent more money to support pay increases so this becomes a question of incentives for the DoD. Imagine recruiting and retention efforts are so terrible they have no option but to resort to implementing stop losses, reactivating recently separated service members and eventually moving toward conscription starting out on a supplemental and temporary level and then when the next conflict erupts more wide scale. For our safety and freedom of course. If you or your children are between 15 and 50 years old, you need to have a plan.

Be more than your labels. Especially the ones you give yourself.

BITCOIN WINS THE WAR But we still need to fight the battles. Be vigilant.

"Air Force raises maximum amount for retention bonuses to $180,000" This is an act of desperation. And indicative of the internal cultural decay within the DOD that is leading service members to opt out. 'Pay to stay' only works for so long. What's next?

Task & Purpose

Air Force raises maximum amount for retention bonuses to $180,000

The larger bonus, widened eligibility and greater time to reenlist are all part of the Air Force's strategy to retain personnel.

The biggest story usually isn't the most important story. Eyes on the background.

People on pedestals rarely put themselves up there.

Ideas don't shape the future. People that act on them do.
