"Why are you working over the weekend? Live a little." - Because it brings me 500,000 Satoshis!

Whenever I see a dirty toilet, I'm happy because I know that after work I have the opportunity to buy more Satoshis. I'm also happy that people laugh at me (like they laughed at American Hodl when he drove a scooter and not a car) because one day I will be the one laughing. I'm grateful that 5 years ago I opened a cleaning business and out of boredom started listening to #Bitcoin podcasts. I'm grateful for every dirty toilet that comes my way because it brings me closer to my goal.

"You can say anything as long as it's not illegal" is like a soviet joke 🤡🤡🤡

The Climax of 20 Years of Disastrous American Foreign Policy When the history books of the early 21st century are written, Ukraine will likely be remembered not just as a battleground but as a turning point—the moment when 20 years of failed American foreign policy finally hit a wall. I am not writing this to rub salt in anyone’s wounds. As someone who has lived through five years of war, I feel the cost of the conflict all too deeply. From day one, I wanted the war in Ukraine to end. But let’s be clear: A Ukraine that does not join NATO and that gives in to Putin’s demands will never have a viable shield. It will never prevent another conflict. The United States—and consequently its Western partners—bear much of the responsibility for where we are today. A Chronology of American Foreign Policy Failures (2001–2024) 2001–2021: Afghanistan The longest war in American history, presented as a mission to destroy al-Qaeda and bring democracy, ended in chaos and humiliation. After 20 years, trillions of dollars spent, and thousands of lives lost, the Taliban returned to power within weeks of the U.S. withdrawal. 2003–2011 (ongoing): Iraq Launched under the false pretext of weapons of mass destruction, the Iraq War destabilized the entire region, strengthened Iranian influence, and led to the creation of ISIS. Another “nation-building” experiment that ended in disaster. 2011: Libya A NATO intervention toppled Gaddafi, but left Libya divided, awash in weapons, and in a protracted civil war. A “victory” that quickly turned into long-term instability. 2011–present: Syria Washington has supported various opposition groups against Assad, only for Russia to solidify its position as a key player in the region. American commitment has been inconsistent, and allies have been abandoned. 2014–2021: Yemen (indirectly through Saudi Arabia) American support for the Saudi intervention has contributed to one of the world’s largest humanitarian crises—famine, disease, and mass displacement—with no solution in sight. 2014–present: Ukraine At first, the U.S. and Europe were hesitant to offer a clear path to NATO or EU membership, leaving Ukraine in a gray area—a buffer state caught between the great powers. When war came, Western support oscillated between big promises and underdelivery. Every case is different. Afghanistan is not Iraq. Iraq is not Libya. Ukraine is not Syria. But the pattern is the same: The American Foreign Policy Handbook 1. Poor selection of “experts.” American foreign policy is created by so-called “experts” — intentionally in quotation marks. Their track record speaks for itself: zero stable democracies, trillions spent, countless lives lost. Why? Because the best minds often go to the private sector, where salaries are higher. Public service, especially foreign policy, is often chosen not by ability but by political loyalty. Democrat or Republican, it almost doesn’t matter. The system rewards membership in the political herd, not expertise. 2. Finding a support group. The formula is repeated everywhere: identify a local opposition group, declare it “democratic,” and assume it will transform the country overnight. But these groups have lived under the same norms, rules, and traditions for centuries. The United States imagines it can rewind history, ignoring that societies develop over decades, not in election cycles. 3. When it fails — blame the locals. When a plan fails, it is always the local groups who are to blame. Afghanistan is a textbook example. After years of arming and training, Washington withdrew overnight, leaving them to the Talibans. Today, Ukraine is burning on two fronts: an aggressor Russia and an inconsistent ally of the United States. Lessons from Ukraine Ukraine is paying the price for this inconsistency today. The Biden administration framed the war as a fight for freedom and democracy. Trump’s approach was more transactional — deals, minerals, and short-term bargains. Neither strategy gave Ukraine what it needed: long-term security guarantees and a unified Western vision. You can’t shout “war, war, war” for three years and then expect it to end in a month. With each passing day, the stakes have risen — not just territorially, but in human lives on both sides. And where was Europe? Many expected the EU to be the voice of reason. Instead, it has often played the role of a dutiful partner in America’s high-stakes games. The main problem: inconsistency The greatest flaw in American foreign policy is its inconsistency. Every four to eight years, doctrine swings like a pendulum. One administration builds the “forever war.” The next abandons it overnight. Allies learn quickly: U.S. support is conditional, temporary, and always just one election cycle away from a turnaround. Foreign policy is not a startup. It cannot be built on hype cycles, partisan shifts, and short-term victories. The cost is always measured in lives—American, Afghan, Iraqi, Libyan, Syrian, Yemeni, and now Ukrainian. #Ukraine #NATO #EU #US #Afghanistan #Iraq #Libya #Syria #Yemen #democracy #war #freedom

The price of peace = $100 billion Yesterday's peace talks didn't just reveal a number. They revealed the truth. And the truth is bitter: the bill will be paid by the EU, not the USA. Why? Because Washington is sitting on an unsustainable debt plan. The US public debt is around 120-125% of GDP, and the budget deficit for 2025 is estimated at $1.9 trillion (≈6.2% of GDP). Interest on the debt alone became the third largest item of government spending last year — bigger than education, infrastructure, and almost everything else. What did we actually learn yesterday? - Ukraine will get US weapons. - The EU will pay for it. - NATO's defense spending target is rising from 2% to 5% of GDP. Translation: Europe is helping the US refinance its debt. The uncomfortable question is: is this the result of strategy — or incompetence? A. If it is intentional: boosting selected industries without adequate economic returns is a failure of oversight. You only go into debt if the rate of return is higher than the interest. Basic Economics 101. Where did those billiards end up? A question for auditors – or the FBI. B. If it is ignorance: then the wrong "experts" were chosen. And again, responsibility is needed. Meanwhile, Ukraine has been reduced to a pawn in the profit game. The fight for freedom and democracy is turning into a "cash grab2" for the benefit of a few industries and interest groups. And this is where a PR disaster occurs: - Democracy should rest on values. - We show that democracy rests on profit. - If inflation eats away at our assets, deflation of value will eat away at our societies. We have to ask ourselves: Are we any better than Russia, North Korea or China if we let greed be our compass? What kind of world do we leave to our children when "peace" gets a price instead of principles? Peace should not be sold. Because if peace is sold — the next in line is freedom. #Geopolitics #Peace #Ukraine #Economy #Leadership #Future #EU #Freedom

One of the most underrated skills you can learn is the ability to ignore your mood and stick with the plan.

Motivation is such a worn-out term these days. And everyone is looking for an answer, how to motivate yourself for anything: motivate yourself for a healthier life, a better job, a better relationship... And the answer is very simple: Obviously we don't want it badly enough. We're not hungry enough. We're not in bad enough health. We're not unhappy enough in our relationship. We're afraid of an uncertain future if we decide to make changes. The lack of a clear goal, proper leadership and a work plan are topics in themselves. And fear, laziness and inertia are the biggest reasons why most people waste the gift we were given at birth. And no matter how much we complain, we feel good in that comfort zone. And apparently everything is not as bad as we say. Because if we were really bad, we would probably get moving, right? Or do we love and appreciate ourselves so little? Maybe for some reason we like to suffer? Do we think we don't deserve to be happy? Think carefully about these words, but I believe that the answer, if you are honest with yourself, you already know very well. The problem is that, apparently, we have not yet reached the bottom. Because it is precisely this bottom that is the greatest motivator, of course, for those who do not give up. Because from there we can only go up... #Motivation #leadership #fear #inertia #life

The irony of history would be if the Ukrainians defeated Russia in the war, then joined the European Union and NATO, only for Macron, Ursula, Starmer and Merz to bury them with the Taliban and bring them other charms of neoliberal democracy... How much labor force will they lack after all!

It is impossible to save someone who does not want to participate in their own salvation. It is also impossible to help someone who sincerely does not want help... GM beautiful people (and vlogers) 😊

Do whatever you want in life, just don't intentionally hurt or exploit anyone, don't live other people's lives, and don't impose your beliefs on others. GM
