The proportion to which aging society regresses, the power of Bitcoin grows. The darker it gets, the brighter it will burn. Asymmetrical but...

Wen you ditch socials but still check the NOSTR on occasion...

A wise man once taught me, that the SOLUTION to POLLUTION is DILUTION So, when you come on the NOSTR, and see a larger than proportionate subject being covered by the autistics that is dull, esoteric and essentially petty, there should be an effective response to polluting the timeline. Pollution is EXCESS. You can either remove the excess amount, or you can add more of the base substance to lower the concentrations of what you don't like. If someone is being noisy, its easier and more controlled to turn up your music, than convince them to be quiet. Being loud is their right. If the subject has a distinctive keyword, you can DILUTE the POLLUTION with a positive, diluting note. For examples sers, I am a huge fan of KNOTS that's K-N-O-T-S If you also like #knots pls post your own so people on the NOSTR can learn something useful, from something initially so pointless. I'm sharing a few basic ones, some fishing ones, and if the autists keep honking - the Hangman's knot. #knots #knotstr #knotsofnostr

Billions of lives at stake. Don't just be right: WIN

Stay Humble and stack squirrels.

I'd let a slave nation have guns if I could limit their ability to read and understand literature. Literacy and health are lower orders of basic freedom than a rifle. From such a handicap, the guns aren't a threat to a tyrant.

This will ruffle some jimmies... But this is sad. 21% of American adults (~43 million Americans) are functionally illiterate, meaning they have difficulty reading and comprehending signs, instructions and forms. 54% of the American adult population reads at or below a sixth-grade level (11 years old). So a little under half of US adults can read Harry Potter. A third of all US adults lack basic numeracy skills. Fewer than 2 in 5 US adults possess strong numeracy proficiency The sick part of this, is the victims don't know what they have had stolen from them, like a lobotomy. This is despite a spend of 16k per student per year. Truly, if you cannot read or write, you are a slave - even in a free country.

We have a new app - "tell us what you think" a few minutes later... "wow everyones soo angry, he's why the feedback is wrong tho...".

There's a time, not long from now, when the fear of the whip at peoples' backs is preferable to the direction it is driving them, and the game is to survive up to and thrive through and beyond that moment. Keep your power dry. Don't get angry - get ready. All else is error.
