I'd definitely agree.
History of asylums is filled with the most heinous transgressions of human rights.
I think I was reflecting (probably too simplistically) on the institutional mandates...
To care for (even though that was poorly or inhumanely executed) vs
To punish.
But I definitely take your point

Hey Riddy.
Welcome (as if I'm part of the official red carpet squad for nostr).
Anyway, it might be the best that can be hoped-for from a decentralized organic system relying on the free consensual interplay of individuals to their networks..
Happy days.

Beware the Is-ness of Being.
this is one of my favorite guides. when you hear your mind say..."This IS bad, or good or terrible or wonderful, be careful. IS Fixes ones perception and stops it from responding to more detailed information.

Power law Prediction
Seductive...
The siren song of certainty,
That we are finally
Masters of the future
And slayers of humility's constant work.
Turning and tweaking the knobs
Looking back with crystal clarity
The mind balking at the unanswerable question,
As we shine the imaginary glow of our final understanding
Into the farthest edges of a world whose masters are not yet born.

I'm speaking to some game rangers and conservationists soon. I'm needing some references to help explore some ways that bitcoin facilitates and improves this domain. I've got some ideas. love Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers work, need a few more pointers.
Gracias nostr.

I asked one of my readers for a review. Amazon won't let him post because he hasn't spent enough money. Tbh it really touched me and made it feel really worthwhile. I'm posting here first....
"Nell’s pacy, thoughtful romp imagines the disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto (a pseudonym), the presumed philanthropist-genius developer of Bitcoin. Bitcoin – the tech which promises a marriage of innocence and money, a mode of lucre impervious to human stupidity. Nell’s instructive take on this ignorance is made real through his characters, some of whom will disrupt your habit of sleeping when it’s dark. Their crime in a nutshell: the co-option of money by evil. And Satoshi’s cash, seemingly immune to such co-option, has justifiably rattled men in suits. In counterpoint to his take-down of money, Nell riffs rarefied on Bitcoin as an attractor of goodness-writ-large, and perhaps even consciousness itself. The attractor draws the good guys too, and as they are elevated by Satoshi’s quiet authority and presence, they risk more-and-more to midwife the still-vulnerable technology. Nell’s take on the world’s ills, their rootedness in the corruptibility of money, and the power of tech to circumvent this flaw is a heady cocktail, as is his quirky turn of phrase. He weaves some big philosophy into the action, and some strong, relatable characters who find love, courage and clarity as Bitcoin motivates and moves their being. By the end you’ll think differently about the world, about money, and perhaps about Jiu-Jitsu and cryptography. And you’ll hope, hugely, that Satoshi is okay, wherever he may be."

Maybe the distorting gravity of fiat inheritance is lost of the degradation of character and value that occurs with a lot of inheritance situations.
I tend to feel that inherting sound money, along with a deep understanding of proof of work and other principles that make it sound... will allow my children to stay true to themselves and their deeper character .

Protest
A jumble of mismatched words stretched across a bony face.
Too tight and brittle,
Cracking to release the inner light
And inner flood...
Of heat and breath and gasp.
To grin again....
And grit against the grind
Of teeth and jaw and face and heart.
In rough revolt against the paltry sinners who would have us cowed and masked and meek and sorrowful.
Mourning, in unrecognized anguish,
The dear freedom and precious chance
That was so cheaply sold.
Given over to the mean and fearful gods of little and less...
Instead of all or nothing.
While in the reflections of our tear filled eyes,
The conflagration roars
And mankind's promise crisps to ash.
And what can we stack against
Such weighty sorrow?
Nothing more than the fleeting choices,
Freely made.
By one.
Then one more.
Then a flood...
Of men and women standing strong.
Or striding forth in equal and appropriate measure.
Nothing more than a growing army
Of wilful fools and willing jokers.
Who would laugh and dance and wrest the kernel from the fire.
Choosing meme and martyrdom over staid and rapacious normality.
Nothing more than a slowly waking hive mind swarm
Of realization and righteous anger.
Nothing more than a grass roots
Ground swell
Root fed
Upwelling of deep and dedicated believers.
The Hodl army.
Massed and massive....
To gainsay the soulless corrupting rot of decay gripping the world.

Btc blues
I got that perpetual open interest man.
I got that negative funding rate blues.
I got those bottomless market jitters;
That falling knife sweat.
I got those freak charting eyes, man.
And that red candle butterfly.
My hands are clammy from holding on....
I got that China ban glaze.
The ESG got me good.
I got that energy FUD man.
And a FED shock, rate hike expectation.
Gonna do me the only thing I can, man.
And grab me a can of cool-as-shaved-ice HODL.

True. level 1 smartness often leads to mean one-upmanship and petty superiority.
Deeply understanding something or someone invariably leads to compassion, nuance, and generosity of spirit.

The problem with Trump became even more starkly apparent. He can't imagine anything being more important than him. can't or won't devote himself to Bitcoin so uses it for attention and votes.

I'm causing the Btc price drop.
I stopped doing my 100 pushups to 100k a few weeks ago.
Starting up again so expect more green in the chart.

2024-07-03 16:54:39

Sovereign
The They that is Them,
that are those who were Us
And before that, We
Who stopped caring, maybe.
Who stopped feeling, maybe.
Who forgot that I exist in me,
This other side of the screen in front of your eyes.
And I occupy space.
I occupy a universe that is not yours or theirs to command.
I choose for me
How to live and who to love
And how to care for them on the other side of my eyes.
And what risks to take....and hold.
And when I take a risk,
I change a risk,
Knowing I am singular, discrete.
And not subject to stochastic rule.
The bell curve outlier...
To be the one in one thousand and one who dies.
A map is not the territory.
And a map of me is not the territory of me, the thoughts and idle sparks and more...
The body flow.
The rivers and woods and contours.
The weather of me.
And all this terrain of me
Wills into life, a voice that says...
"No thank you."
I honour my stars for direction not their charts.
I obey my fullness not their emptiness.
I consecrate my courage not their fear.
I sanctify my body not their politics.
I am mine own.
Not theirs to own.

Btc blues

I got that megative funding rate blues.

I felt my way into this thing.
Underpinned by cavernous warehouses...
With humming fans and green unblinking eyes.
Electric dragons hoarding digital gold in metal caves.
And in pulses adding their million buzzing circuits to the hornets swarm.
I felt my way into this thing.
The dream fabric of an anonymous crypto shaman.
Ephemeral yet compelling,
Nowhere and yet everywhere.
And the echo of his drumbeat chanting still holds the rhythm,
The base note of the tribal heart.
Let's feel our way into this thing.
The final weight and measure of the human arc,
The elliptic curve of complex spaces,
Holding flourishing, centering.
A distributed conductor, giving preference to neither bow nor string.
So tone and pitch and key can marry in overarching transcendance.

I've been working on the art of writing poetry for the last 3 years. I managed to keep to a daily discipline of one poem a day until about 6 months ago. I'm going to start to post what I feel.is worthwhile. I'm hoping it kindles the discipline again. a lot of it is inspired by the meaning, potential and implications of Bitcoin.
I hope it strikes a chord now and then.

Enough
Breathe in and breathe out
Like a sob or a shout...
So we do what we can
To slake thirst in a drought.
And no...
It's not enough
It's not enough.
It's the rhythm we feel
That connects us to steel...
The rod in our spine
It's yours and it's mine,
When we do what we can
When it's life on the line.
And no...
It's not enough
It's not enough.
When we're crushed by the wheels
Of progress that steals
The food from our mouths
And the air from our lungs
Til gasping we raise
Our eyes to the Lord
And say...
It's enough
It's enough.

Orange glow
The rush, the crush, the dash for cash to stash and
smash the walls and halls and malls of
old gold that's sold for less of the mess and more of the stress than before
while more and more score the mark of cain
the spark of pain that all told is so so cold.
Rather,
farther and farther out where air and care meet
in the breath of innocence...
we see the glee, the sigh, the sign that me and thee
might win and, skin aflame, another game is played
deeds are done and none are blamed ... all who ask can bask...
in the Orange glow.
