When I was a kid, an older relative had this big rubber band ball, about the size of a softball, and I thought it was so cool, that I started my own rubber band ball.
So for years, I had this subplot of adding to my rubber band ball. It eventually became bigger than a basketball, and extremely heavy since it was dense rubber. Only unusually large rubber bands could go on it, and so tracking down hyper-sized rubber bands became a task in its own right (this was largely pre-ecommerce, 1990s, thus shopping was like hunting and gathering rather than searching and clicking). Various relatives would surprise me with like $5 packs of specialized rubber bands that they happened to run into and for me that was like an A+ gift.
I try to always focus on rekindling and/or being open to that basic sense of wonder and joy in things. A kid and her large rubber bands.
Anyway, happy Sunday.

I remember that during the COVID-19 pandemic, at least three German politicians (one from Hamburg, one from Bavaria, and one from the CSU) publicly stated in front of the camera that the primary purpose of schools is childcare.
Not education, not upbringing, but childcare—so that both parents or single parents can go to work.
That's the purpose of public schools in the system.
Let that sink in.

Why do so many German words that have made it into English have such a negative connotation? 😀
Schadenfreude – Pleasure derived from someone else's misfortune.
Weltschmerz – A deep sadness or world-weariness.
Angst – A deep sense of anxiety or existential dread.
Übermensch – A concept from Nietzsche, meaning "superhuman" or "overman."
Kindergarten – Literally "children's garden," referring to preschool education.
Blitz – Meaning "lightning," used in "Blitzkrieg" (lightning war).
Kaputt – Broken, ruined.

Yes, we had a computer called the Cassius PC, the first all in one desktop.
It sold in Harrods and a few other places but ultimately failed, however the industrial version of this lives on till today in the subsidiary company that eventually bought out Densitron from Gyllenhammar, Quixant, who make PCs for gambling machines:

It’s not about whether women are playing a bigger role in finance. It’s about the framing. You could’ve just shared the stats without adding the whole ‘nobody talks about this’ angle, which gives it that woke flavor.
Bitcoin is about individual sovereignty, not identity-based narratives. If the data is real, cool, but the emotional framing (‘I felt misogynistic for doubting it’) is exactly the kind of thing woke culture pushes—guilting people into accepting a narrative.
You weren’t wrong for questioning it. That’s what we do as Bitcoiners. But hey, if you just found this interesting and wanted to share, fair enough. Just don’t act surprised when people call out the way it was framed.

I think most people eventually get bored of social media, including Nostr. The cycle usually goes like this:
Excitement & Exploration – They join, engage, and find it interesting, especially if it's a new platform with fresh ideas.
Routine & Habituation – It becomes part of their daily life, but interactions start feeling repetitive.
Diminishing Returns – The novelty wears off, and they start seeing the same types of posts, drama, and engagement tricks.
Disengagement or Burnout – They check in less often, only follow a few key people, or leave entirely.
Even on Nostr, which is more decentralized and free from corporate control, the core problem remains—social media is designed for engagement, but people eventually realize they're just consuming endless content without much real-world impact. The early adopters and builders might stay longer, but the average user will likely rotate in and out.
The only users or communities that last are those where people build real friendships or business connections, so engagement stays because of the relationships, not just the content. But even then, people naturally cycle in and out.
I'm getting bored of nostr too. There is also no way to search for other users around us or businesses around us.

Cidades brasileiras em risco de inundações devido ao aquecimento
O aquecimento global é um fenômeno que tem gerado preocupações em todo o mundo devido às suas consequências ambientais. Entre os efeitos mais preocupantes está o aumento do nível do mar, que ameaça cidades costeiras. No Brasil, com sua extensa linha costeira, essa questão é particularmente relevante, afetando tanto a população quanto a economia local. […]

Fully 100% agree. Building for the current user base means building for more technical users or users that don't care about technical hurdles because they value being first or understand why Nostr is important. We need to be focusing on onboarding the next wave of non-technical users.

Hi, I'm Silvie. nostr:nprofile1qqs0a4xk9radptlyh3dsguw3l09pxk485xwvlse4n7afc2jvhz5mgwqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtch8z7pg and I started a podcast abtly titled "Too Angry Cunts." We talk about everything from #Bitcoin, hypocrisy, #music and everything in between. We also laugh, a lot, at the nonsense of living in an upside down world that we do not want to participate in.
First episode drops tomorrow morning.
Listen in, if you wish.
