And of course it will require every user of ‘social media’ to be “age verified” leading inexorably to national digital IDs through the back door…it’s a Trojan horse for digital slavery & CBDCs
On my the plus side, in 200-300 years our descendants can move to California and claim ‘reparations’ 💰💰💰except of course there’s no way out of this digital cage for humanity once you’re in it.

What a totalitarian shithole this country’s become. Growing up I was fiercely proud of being British, now I‘m angry and ashamed of what this once-great nation has become under successive WEF controlled politicians. Nobody voted for this shit. Move to Nostr guys and say what you like.

1984 is the most depressing but necessary book I’ve ever read.
It’s clear that the “elites” and our WEF-controlled “leaders” are using it as an instruction manual rather than a warning.
It should be required reading in our schools (never going to happen though because the government won’t want the plebs to wake up to their dystopian agenda).

With the UK’s loony left government threatening to ban X we need #nostra here more than ever. I’m just a small, lone voice in the wilderness….we need some big hitters on here to get the message across to the British users of X and others here worried about our descent into an Orwellian nightmare that there is an uncensored alternative out there.

Got this for Christmas as I wanted to see if it’s suitable to give friends and family that don’t yet “get” Bitcoin yet or why we need it. The answer is a resounding YES! It’s a very accessible guide, easy to read, and explains the complexity of our financial problems in plain English. #NatBrunell #BitcoinIsForEveryone

On Amtrak’s Empire Builder train from Seattle to Chicago last week, I set my alarm for 03:00 so I wouldn’t miss this stop. For the pedants out there, I KNOW hardly any of the film or TV series was filmed here but when else is an English fan going to get another chance to say they’ve been here? Will earn me a free pint at our next pub film quiz 🍺

Have just completed a two week tour of NE USA by Amtrak train (Chicago>SanFrancisco>Seattle>Minneapolis>Chicago). Had a blast. It’s been a few years since I was last in the US….I can’t believe how expensive everything has become. Being in the UK I’m used to high prices but I was shocked when I went into a Wallgreens or 7/11 for some basics….all that money printing’s coming home to roost I guess in the form of massive inflation.

Try reading “The Mandibles” by Lionel Shriver….it’s the story of a family trying to survive the collapse of society following a global financial crisis.

Back in the day (late ‘70s - 90s) I used to be a keen photographer (Olympus OM1 & 2) but since I moved to digital I’ve sort of lost interest in it.

What a great take from @npub1pwz…tdyp on his X account (yes, I do still look at X occasionally to see content from people I respect who aren’t yet on Nostr or, as in Luke’s case, don’t post regularly on it):
“If you are 30 years old with 1 #Bitcoin you are in the top 0.0001%.
Let me explain.
Majority of early #Bitcoin adopters (which includes you) are men between 35-65.
This means millions of coins will begin transition from 2045-2075 as this generation passes on.
90% of the 400,000 wholecoiners from the “early days” of 2009-2035 will be dead by 2080 or so.
75% of the young wholecoiners from those “early days” in the 2010s and 2020s are still alive but either sold, lived off of, or lost enough #BTC out of their wholecoiner status.
The only thing more rare than being a wholecoiner in 2025 is to be a wholecoiner in 2075 who worked for said coin in their youth.
The majority of wholecoiners after the 2070s will not themselves have made that #Bitcoin in their lifetime, but inherited from their parents.
There is nothing wrong with inheriting wealth, but it would make you unique in being one of the wholecoiners left.
In the year 2085 there may be less than 10,000 people that can say:
“I shook Michael @saylor’s hand.”
“@adam3us replied to my post once.”
“Back in my day people could buy 0.05 #BTC off a normal income.”
“I made it to 1 #Bitcoin before America started buying it… and I didn’t lose it.”
All ages should focus on getting as much #Bitcoin as possible but in particular young people under 30.
Assuming 11 billion people in the future this would make you 1 in 1,100,000.
Perhaps over the next 50 years we invent significant life extent in technologies… This only makes these concepts more imperative. More will survive into the future but each decade you live extends the impact forward even more-so.
We have less in common with the future than the past… In 60 years the world of 11 billion people will look to you in a rare light.
You lived in an era that is now technologically ancient to them.
You were one of the few that saw their modern world before their other grandparents could see it.
If you have 1 #Bitcoin under 30 you have each foot in two entirely different worlds. You’re passing the baton from the ancient world into the modern world none of us can see yet.
I do everything I can to internalize this likely outcome. Not because it makes me any better of a man but the precise opposite… We are in the right place and the right time therefore the reward (and responsibility) will be great.
We are the visionaries of today and the revered historical artifacts of tomorrow.
Our grandkids will be living in a sea of digital receipts but you will be one of the few thousand living breathing people left representing the billions of people before them.
The principles and character you build over the next 50 years will be what billions look toward in the future as they handle technology we can’t yet fathom.
#Bitcoin is important but youth more-so and your character the most.
Less than 10,000 will hold the title you have now.
You’re 1 in 1,100,000.
Don’t fumble the shot.”

I think most people realise these ‘forever’ wars are avoidable and only enrich the state and arms industries, and why risk your life for that?
Also, most European countries, and I include the UK in that, are flooded with millions of third world illegal immigrants that will not fight for their adopted homeland, leaving the task to the beleaguered indigenous male population….who are already the most persecuted sector of society in their own country, and who are finally waking up to the reality of the globalist agenda and saying “NO I’ll not fight for you!”

If you’re ever in the beautiful far south west of England come to Penzance and see this magnificent example of Egyptian revival architecture, dating from the 1830s.
Even if you’re in London, jump on the Great Westen service from Paddington and ride it 5 hours all the way to its terminus in Penzance….its an experience in its own right, especially crossing from Plymouth/Devenport into Cornwall high above the River Tamar on the iconic Brunel bridge.
There’s loads more to see in the area too, including the stunning St.Michael’s Mount, the harbour, Newlyn fish market and art scene. St.Ives isn’t far away either…a must for art lovers everywhere.
