I am cooking something MASSIVE for everyone 👇
Pastors: An enormous number (majority?) of pastors (and especially professors) are very, very out of touch with normal people and families, ESPECIALLY blue collar people.
So, to reach and disciple those people you are going to need to do some things that “pastor world” finds cringe (not theologically, but in things like style, tone, often emphasis), and you will be chattered about.
There will be a couple moments (not in everything) when you’ll have to decide which matters more: Being in the “inside circle” of pastor-world or actually reaching and discipling real people with real jobs and real sins and real problems in a real culture.
Charles Spurgeon summarized this dynamic well when he was viciously attacked by other pastors and newspapers for his jokes in the pulpit, his “vulgar tone”, and his sort of blue collar speech:
"I am perhaps vulgar, but it is not intentional, save that I must and will make the people listen. My firm conviction is that we have had quite enough polite preachers, and many require a change. God has owned me among the most degraded and off-casts. Let others serve their class; these are mine, and to them I must keep."
— Charles Spurgeon
You know what shook me when I was Muslim?
The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him.
She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world.
And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK.
To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3.
I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that?
Then I realized I was the wife.
I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless.
And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.”
He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.”
That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean.
He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty.
Islam told me to make myself worthy of God.
Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy.
The cross was Him naming the price.
Praise the Lord.
One of the best places to notice the triumph of gynocentrism is in car design.
Elegant shapes, cool details, a sporty vehicle structure that exuded power and performance were replaced by rounded forms, abolition of details, and a structure that evokes comfort and safety, rather than danger and speed.
What lies behind this is the idea that a car’s aesthetics should reflect a peaceful, careful, and well-behaved driver - the kind who drops his daughters and wife off at the mall so they can max out his credit card without any complaints.
The wild driver, who sees speed as the freedom of his soul and whose backseat is a Jackson Pollock painting manifesting his sexual conquests, is now viewed as “patriarchal” and “oppressive.”
Our era, while attacking the very idea of family, simultaneously turns it into an existential prison for a man who is denied any expression of vigor, strength, and vitality.
People adding moderate amounts of liquidity with $pDAI, $HEX or anything else tightly interwoven into the rest of the ecosystem are shooting themselves (and everyone else) in the foot.
$PRVX was intentionally decorrelated for a reason. Re-assimilating it back into the wider ecosystem liquidity just serves to act as an anchor on a chart that could otherwise behave independently of the ecosystem (aside from the obvious impacts of asset rotation).
Why do you think there have been recent discussions about shifting the $HEX and $PLSX liquidity to be heavier with stables/ETH? Tying everything together ensures everything dumps together, and until new money is consistently flowing into the eco, then the more decorrelated assets are, the better.
Hope the $50 in LP fees and the high risk of impermanent loss is worth it.
@stridentcitizen@stridentcitizen@GigaTheMinter Have you guys talked about the pie (3.14) symbolism of today's launch? Or that today is considered men's valentines day? March 14. 3-14.... get your steaks ready.....
The SEC tried to take him down. They failed.
Interpol came next.
His tokens are down 95% but his community is still here.
Nobody has told this story honestly. Until now. The spam king turned rumored crypto billionaire turned international fugitive who somehow still hasn't lost.

You’ve probably heard of the OODA loop. Observe, Orient, Decide, Act. It was created by legendary fighter pilot John Boyd as a decision making cycle.
These days, pretty much all the smartest people and top performers in the world are using some version of it to process chaos and stay one step ahead.
It works incredibly well for military strategists and elite CEOs but in a grappling exchange, the classic OODA loop is too slow. By the time you finish deciding, the exchange is already over.
I hacked it. After twenty years as a Rilion Gracie black belt, owning my own academy, and pressure testing this every single day on myself and my students for the last six years, I built a complete method that turns the entire OODA loop into automatic instinct.
Here’s the hack: you accept three fundamental givens and hand the whole decision making process over to them
Modes of Action
(grip, frame, hang, and technique)
Basic Options
(go behind, tip over, pass the legs, submit)
Stages of Grappling
(neutral, advantage, mixup, dominant pos.)
These aren’t steps you consciously run through. They’re relational equations that keep every possibility in proper proportion. Your Modes of Action become your receptors and effectors and sense of touch takes over. You stop thinking and start flowing. You hunt the Mixup stage where you have multiple threats at once.
Anticipation and speed blend with intuition. That’s when submissions, passes, and back takes just appear. And here’s how you dial it in: film your rolls, watch them off the mat. It’s important to observe and self reflect. That’s where it really clicks.
I’ve had this book sitting on my desk for seven or eight months. I knew it was complete, but something was missing. It wasn’t the content, it was the synthesis.
It’s a method. It’s a mode. It’s a whole new way of being on and off the mats. I’m pumped because it developed on its own through rolling, not forcing some theory. Six years of testing, one to two years of writing, and now it’s almost ready. This is something truly valuable. Coming soon.

$pTGC is front-running this coming bull run.
By the time influencers are telling you the bull run is confirmed, The Grays could already be up 10x.
I’m big on managing every choice with a discussion of risk to reward.
Crypto is already a somewhat risky spot to be in, and a lot of the safest plays have had some pretty weak gains. The true reward is finding the future safe plays before anyone else. In the last 5 years, $BTC and $ETH have been outperformed by gold and stocks. Now everything in crypto is sitting at a massive discount.
Upside potential on most legacy cryptos: 5-10x. Upside potential on $pTGC from here: I personally think over 100x. It’s written on the wall where a portion of your value should be held this bull cycle. NFA
