“I don’t agree with those who plunge headlong into the middle of the flood and who, accepting a turbulent life, struggle daily in great spirit with difficult circumstances. The wise person will endure that, but won’t choose it—choosing to be at peace, rather than at war.” — SENECA

We need a new cultural enlightenment. I want to be a part of it.
My goodness, this is fantastic.


We Are The Slop
Your life is my background noise
I don’t know how this shakes out, but we are in the era of streaming hell.
I started learning about bitcoin in 2021 and learned this lesson while hanging out in bitcoin rooms on Clubhouse. Clubhouse was kind of a flash in the pan but it came at the right time for me because I learned a ton.

My vehicle is on its way out I think. For the last few years every 5k has resulted in a $1000 to $1500 repair. It needs another one now. So I’m considering unloading it. Money is tight and a large car payment isn’t something we can really do right now. I’ve considered selling some btc to offset some of the cost. Without going into too many details, I’m looking for advice or perspectives on a couple things.
One, selling seems to be a pain from a tax perspective in terms of computing the gains on the btc I sell. Has anyone gone through this? I don’t have much, but what I have is on cold storage. So I would have to sign up for an exchange and sell it there?
Is this stupid? Should I just avoid this at all costs?
Most people don’t want to know what is true. They want someone to parrot back to them what they already think is true.
