Self custody is hard.

I shit you not: coming back home to my APC UPS continuously beeping. A few seconds of this, and I start losing my temper...

My first reflex: shutting down my power backup.

WITHOUT TURNING OFF MY BITCOIN NODE PROPERLY 🤦‍♂️

I just recovered my node after a corrupted drive, because of a power outage. And I didn't even open my new lightning channels yet.

And I simply killed it, because I was pissed at my UPS, basically in the same way that corrupted my drive previously...

Luckily, I restarted it, and it works fine. But just imagine how close I came to fucking it up again. Just like that.

Self custody implies responsibility and accountability. At all times. You make a mistake, and you may have to pay the price dearly after.
