VC-backed companies are fragile. They're not built to last because it's about getting big at all costs. And when the sh*t hits the fan, you know they're going to take their 2% and shrug their shoulders as you flounder. This is why I generally advise startups to not take their money.
There's nothing like guaranteeing someone won't waste your time by charging money. So many things that should have prices don't and so many things that shouldn't have prices do.

Taxes really suck, but tariffs suck a little less than income tax or property tax.

Bitcoin will break $100k when you get a PR on your deadlift. Hey, I don't make the rules.
Being a Bitcoiner, Black Friday is very different. I don't shop deals anymore because in Bitcoin terms, I know the price will come down. I buy what I need and/or what I want to support and it's a much purer form of transacting. In other words, I buy not due to external circumstances, but because of internal values. I've grown in understanding what I'm about as a result. Bitcoin really does make you a better person if you let it.
Looks like they've done something to my youtube channel where I can't really post any updates anymore. TGFN.
Listened to the Marc Andreesen Rogan podcast. A few things that stood out to me as a Bitconer: * Andreesen using the debanking as an excuse for the NFT and DeFi crash was serious cope. * He claims that you need a blockchain for signatures to prove a public persona wrote something official<facepalm>. Dude, just use Nostr, no blockchain necessary! * He doesn't like saying Bitcoin, but he kept bringing up crypto to try to pump his bags, associating it with the Trump win. Anyway, he's clearly smart, but is still a "crypto" VC.
We live in a society full of sell-outs that get mad at you for not selling out yourself. That's a fiat zombie trying to make you a fiat zombie as well.
