I'm still a slave — I still work, pay taxes, and pay for a mortgage in fiat.
Being orange-pilled has made me more resilient. Instead of feeling defeated by the system, I embrace my role as a stoker. The little fiat I have left over gets shoveled into the firebox and turned into Bitcoin, which has become a way to propel myself and my family toward a financially secure future.
A good example of this is the impact Trump has had on the stock market in the past few weeks. So many people have been running around like headless chickens, scared and spreading their FUD. My hodlings are still up, and the dip has only given me another opportunity to stack more sats.
At the very least, I get to experience freedom — even if it's just in my own mind. Something that most normies would never get to experience.
I know a couple of people who understand bitcoin, or mined some in the early days but feel like they have missed the boat because they sold up, or lost it.
I don't know anyone who aligns with sovereignty or freedom where I live. Their idea of an ideal world is expecting the government or local council to do everything for them.
Being a Firefighter would be pretty rewarding, and there is a kind of camaraderie that cannot be found anywhere else.
As a kid, I liked to tinker with electronics, so wanted to be an electrical repairman of some sort.
I lost a shitload of weight in a short amount of time doing my own version snake diet. (Omad, with 48-72 hour fasts once a week) That was a lot of fun, and seeing results right away kept me motivated.
Nowadays, I'm just eating better with more physical activity. I prefer this way because I don't need to adjust my attitude, and can still enjoy the occasional treat.
Keep your Bitcoin off exchanges, they will all end up going belly up at some point, best avoid.
Shitcoins - why waste your time being scammed, when you can instead spend more time learning about Bitcoin.
Avoid worrying about the price of Bitcoin in fiat, it goes up and it goes down. Hodl long term and you will simply be better off.
Growing up in my household, we always celebrated Easter in the pagan sense. I associate both bunnies and eggs with celebrating spring and fertility.
And yeah, chocolate eggs are just cadburys and your local dentists run at your wallet. Better to stack sats and enjoy the longer weekend in good health.
I guess I'm a 'Blue zone' maxi. I've deliberately gone out of my way to find a place where my family has access to clean food, and water.
Environmental issues - I'm a maxi for awareness of the damage invasive species can/will do. Near where I live there are signs up warning of Gold Clam, which is an invasive species that can really fuck shit up here. Can't be complacent about this shit.
Other hills I'm willing to die on: full drug legalization, anti violence - particularly physical violence, and life long, access to free education for all.
I use to play World of Warcraft and Aion back in the day. For WoW, I would play around 14-15 hours a day whenever an expansion dropped. Aion on the other hand was pure grind, would often play around 16 hours a day, possibly more. grinding the same elite area or dungeons.
This question reminds me of the Stephen King Novel 11/22/63. I'd worry about the impact that would have on others around me, and as well as my own ego. From others perspective it might get quite frustrating seeing someone win at absolutely everything. I'll probably get over confident with taking huge risks, which might cause tension with my loved ones. If I could do it only once though, it would be a day before a major lottery draw, win it, live it and if that doesn't work out - I'll have a save point to return to.
Act clueless or deaf whenever a telemarketer calls me. Sometimes I'll just pick up the phone and breath heavily - that normally stops then from calling me, and ends the fun prematurely.
I sometimes will say ridiculous shit to my partner to try and get a laugh out of a worker, or bystander at a shop.
Give characters in video games stupid names.
From my count 37, but it could easily be more. A few houses I have lived in more than once. I grew up in an unstable environment, moving was necessary when I was a kid, something that I continued doing as an adult.
The house I now own, is the longest I have been anywhere at 2.5 years.
Might be a more effective, and human approach than what Bill Hicks suggested back in the 90's.
I'm probably one of the most stubborn people who has ever walked the planet, in every way imaginable. It seems I have passed this trait on to my daughter too haha
