For meat, egg and fur consumption humans unnecessarily kill 94 billion land animals every year and roughly a trillion fish every year. We can sufficiently feed humans with 25% of the land used to feed the animals that are consumed.
Not wanting the thing is the fastest way to get the thing, desperation has a smell and everyone detects it at close range. something about desire repels the desired. the universe is running a scam where you have to let go of the thing to grab it
2-3 cups of coffee per day associated with an 18% lower dementia risk and better cognition in a 40-year study of 130,000 participants.
Even with these benefits, I can't do it; caffeine creates a physiological roller coaster and enslaves me.
This is the essence of the win-win philosophy in an image. Many, if not most ideological conflicts tend to dissolve if you can find a sufficiently high dimensional perspective on reality.
The Bitcoin “Silent Salary”
Bitcoin’s power-law trend rises ~0.09% per day.
That’s ~33% per year regardless of price action.
This is the raise nobody sees.
While price chops sideways, the target keeps climbing.
Time is doing the compounding for you.
At today’s trend level:
1 BTC
≈ $110 / day
≈ $3,350 / month
≈ $40,200 / year
5 BTC
≈ $550 / day
≈ $16,750 / month
≈ $201,000 / year
10 BTC
≈ $1,100 / day
≈ $33,500 / month
≈ $402,000 / year
No boss.
No reviews.
No promotions to wait for.
Just a scarce asset on a deterministic growth curve.
If price isn’t rising, pressure is building.
And the trend never stops.
You don’t need a better job.
You need a stack.

Jensen Huang: Bitcoin is "taking excess energy and storing it as a new form called currency and you take that currency wherever you’d like."
"And so you took energy from one place and now you transported it everywhere.”
Sure you COULD have always done better but should you have? probably not, or else that would have happened, and you then STILL could have “tried harder”, so it’s a wash. Don’t want to try harder, be intentional about it
17 years after the white paper, the Bitcoin network is still operational and more resilient than ever. Bitcoin never shuts down.
@SenateDems could learn something from that.
Highly intelligent outlier men require spirituality to ground their souls and to prevent corrosion.
I don't mean the performative kind, but a deep, holistically scrutinised spiritual anchor in the divine, acting as the conduit for ongoing spiritual integration, no matter the form it takes. For the weight of fierce intelligence and ferocious wisdom carries immense soul debt, born from the suffering such insight demands.
When this anchoring does not occur, that soul debt is often externalised as hatred or indifference, regardless of the chosen vector.
Unless you look homeless, talking to yourself in public is completely socially acceptable because everyone will assume you’re just on a call. The opposite applies, if you do look homeless.
