Viktor Frankl's book, Man's Search for Meaning, always comes to mind when I think about resilience.

Not quite the same, but it reminds me, telling my in-laws, twice, 2016 and recently, that Trump will win the US elections, and them thinking I'm insane. 😅

Also, I have an African background, and we have similar cultural dynamics. The older you get, the more you realise that those "wise" elders were actually full of shit. There are too many sacred cows to slay...

MIGA!!!

Antonopoulos' books are also available on GitHub for free...

I suspect "dementia" is probably just the symptom. Knowing what causes it may assuage your worries...?

The water was around or below 10⁰C. I forgot to check the time before and after, but I guess possibly 8 minutes.

I haven't read the article, but I'll say this: Airports are very stressful places. The many people, the shops, the bad food, the noise, etc 😮‍💨

Trump has no cards and must know it. India and China have already called his bluff. Witkoff's negotiations are about about helping him save face.

I envy you! I have given up on my wife trying to understand bitcoin, and why it's important in these unstable times... At least she likes gold, so in a way we complement each other.

"Honest burger" — every Friday evening!

The community note on the tweet is very insightful, hinting that the state of the terrain is paramount: viruses and bacteria are not harmful on an healthy terrain. This is quite well-known and accepted among naturopaths.

How do you reliably make business with the US if the tariffs are changing so regularly?

I'm so disgusted, and feel vindicated that I've been off of that social network for about a decade now...

What you are, your true essence, is immortal.

Someone recently made a very interesting remark about tariffs. Initially designed to re-industrialise America, they are now being (mis)used as a weapon to coerce other nations into following America's foreign policy.

We have to ask ourselves how America, who is actively involved in the conflict, with weapons, intelligence, planning etc, can at the same time present herself as mediator.

The funny thing is that all NATO countries still buy Russian oil through intermediaries...

At this point, Trump is only fooling himself...

Sewing is surprisingly similar to writing software, lol...🤭🤔

Thanks, just bought the audio book.

Of course you have to work for money! How else can you quantify that what you do is valuable? Money is the main motivator for me, but not the only one. I could change jobs and make 10k more, but I won't, because with my current job, I enjoy certain freedoms that I value more than money.
