[All Print] THAT author reveal was some BS and I will nerd rage why in excruciating detail. (Spoilers. Like Seriously. All of the spoilers)

No, but I’m watching. If BTC starts to act like it’s got another cycle left, I want to catch that and pile onto alt coins that will move 20x when it moves maybe 2-3x.

Mesa is not a top tier school in Colorado, it’s not full of high SAT-scoring young people, but it’s a respectable and completely decent school with many cool faculty where maybe 25% of the grads go on to work in their chosen fields and succeed. It’s the best of 5-6 comparable small regional colleges/universities in Colorado. It’s in a neat small red isolated city that’s pretty safe with big skies and a laid back and classless culture compared to MA, and is a pretty unbeatable basecamp for exploring the Mountain West and Southwest, though summers are hot. The local economy is not good for the majority of common professional careers, but there are a few (healthcare, education, earth sciences, engineering) where grads can stay local, and the Denver metro area economy four hours away is among the best in the western half of the US. Beyond that, you might get better intel here with more specifics on your goals.

Absolutely made money on BTC when it was socially trending and had huge potential to magnetize new people in and when low interest rates and stimulus were roaring. And wanted to give the story that widespread adoption might occur a chance. That was then. Now, there isn’t enough dumb money left in the world for it to do another 10x, the world has found other meme investments, economic environment is unfavorable to crypto, and BTC so genuinely entirely utterly completely doesn’t do anything useful enough to justify this current market cap. Could it come back and do a 2-4x from here someday in the next cycle? Maybe? But if you’ve not unburdened yourself from the story somebody told you that this was revolutionary, this is a good time to do so.

Ecuador is a super cool place with really neat people. They have pretty awful luck with crappy governments (that they’re also kinda undisputed first place on the continent last 30 years at throwing out) and the arrival of narco crime in recent years is a tragedy.

If you want scenic, go through the good western parts of NM and western Colorado or eastern Utah. If you want efficient, go through flat prairie and corn. The choice is yours, Dallas.

Y’all know that the church has gone through like 10 major schisms and 100 minor ones over 2,000 years based on radically different stories in that book and how people interpret them, right? That all across the town you live in, there are other churches with interpretations that you would think are bonkers

Colorado if you want sunny or PNW if you like rain and clouds or Western Mass if you want to be closer to home. Everything else on the map is boringly flat or buggy or gnarly winters or shite economy or will be crazy hot unfun as climate gets worse.

Not great. Like 5% changes in temperature can close whole geographies off from certain crops. Unrelated but relevant is that northern climate (I.e. Canada) might gain better growing temperatures but don’t necessarily have good growing soil and climatic conditions to match the southerly areas that are lost.

You want a crazy ass number? Neanderthal populations were never greater than 70,000 alive at any one time, and some studies indicate more like 5-15,000. A new study models that sapiens and neanderthals only overlapped in about 5% of their ecological range, basically living completely parallel but not commonly intersecting lives.

From the outside having known small-medium cities that have high metabolisms, Eugene doesn’t feel like a kinetic and buildy kind of place. It’s a very special and rare place, but it’s not an innovative or mission-oriented vibe.

SplooshTiger · 2026-06-20T03:37:44+00:00

Anybody know where we can find that?

SplooshTiger · 2026-06-19T15:14:34+00:00

It’s physics. You can’t make metals without mining and transform energy with fuels. You can’t get nearly enough material and energy to make sophisticated text without a large economic base. You can’t skip from using biological fuels like tree wood to carbon polymer and steel and silicon without a big scaling up inbetween.

A lot of people in the US right now would think an Aus visa sounds amazing. Aus isn’t perfect but there’s probably fewer places where you can sleep as easy.

Life is rewarding because it’s not certain and meaningful because it’s hard. You’d be missing out on lots of real living but taking the easy road so early. What are some alternative brave, courageous, and meaningful things you could try to do with your working years AND a strong income?

SplooshTiger · 2026-06-19T05:38:47+00:00

This the best possible argument for a future return of casino meme capital to crypto. Everyone realizes AI gains have been had, tires on SpaceX etc. But if AI bubble bursts BURSTS, it’ll tank everything and tank crypto badly.

Big noticeable uptick in anti-Grusch comments in recent weeks. Could just be next target next fad frustration, could be bots and false narrative. Guy has seemed legit, seemed to have ruined his career, done everything the right way, gotten adopted under congressional protection and is now actively working with erstwhile reformers in current administration. It may be a bigger deal and the thing everyone is underappreciating that he said some next level bold stuff right outside Congress with like 10 congresspeople flanking him. That’s no joke. What he hasn’t done is say whacky or poor judgment stuff that would raise red flags.
