If you’re in North America and want to go to bed early tonight, just find a countdown from Newfoundland and then call it a night. It will be midnight there at 9:30pm here. I get to keep my regular bedtime.

I’ve been using @PayPerQ as my default AI access point. The other day I needed to look up some sentences in Spanish, and used the audio playback to hear the rough pronunciation. Pretty hilarious to hear @Guy Swann speaking back to me en español 😂.

I refuse to believe the Silver vs Hershey’s chocolate bar people are real.

Yes, but if you continue to replace them you’ll continue to receive a lump of shit. Eventually you grow out of diapers and deal with your own shit like a sovereign adult.

In 2025, I set a major goal for myself. I took a risk, left a “comfortable” job, albeit a soul crushing one. I manifested a place for myself within a group of mission driven people. Were there things that didn’t go my way this past year? Absolutely. But this thing I set out to do, I did. It feels good. I have a new main goal for 2026 and I intend to manifest that into my life as well. I also intend to put much more energy into Nostr. You can just do shit. Merry Christmas to you all!

“Hey, so we destroyed the money and inflated the housing market to unattainable levels, forcing you to find an alternative asset, but also, no way we’re gonna let you buy a house with that shit because drug dealers use it sometimes” Opt out

The must-watch Christmas movie schedule for me is: Christmas Eve: Christmas Vacation Christmas Day: It’s a Wonderful Life I’ll watch others but everything besides these is gravy. Home Alone usually kicks off the season.

Feliz Navidad 🎄

These fuckers love war eh by.

The socialist urge to tax billionaires is almost, but not quite, inline with the libertarian stance. They want to tax them and perpetuate the coercive nature of the state, while the libertarian would prefer to end the corporate welfare state altogether. We both agree the billionaires have centralized capital on the backs of the plebs. Libertarians would just prefer to prevent the mechanism rather than adopt it.

GM Thinking about how easy it is for us to turn something into an existential crutch. I’ve been reducing my coffee intake, and when I hit my daily limit, I find myself wondering what the hell is the point of all this? 😂

If only they knew that bitcoin would let us build these again.

Square launching lightning payments is almost enough to make me want to visit the U.S. again.

Perhaps the saddest thing about the AI revolution will be losing the ability to know if cute dog videos are real.

Why doesn’t anyone in Bitcoin use a Lucha Libre mask for a privacy masks?

I’m spending a few nights in an expensive city next weekend and I asked an old friend who lives there if I could spend a few nights at his place. I could do Airbnb or hotel but they’re completely overpriced. I’ve known this guy for close to 25 years. Yet I felt this guilt of burdening him by asking. On the flip side, I’ve let bitcoiners stay at my place and vice versa, without question or hesitation. Sometimes after knowing each other for days or even hours. (Note that it’s always a mutual friend connection that I trust, not just any random person). I think that says a lot about having a shared passion and vision for the world.

My friend stopping me from saying “Bitcoin, you dumb fuck” when someone complains about the cost of living.
