Join us tomorrow, approximately 24 hours from now (12 noon US east coast time), as we continue studying "The Law of One” which is a series of 106 conversations that occurred from 1981-1984 between a physics professor & the entity known as Ra who had previously tried to spread the Law of One in ancient Egypt with mixed results.

Last week, we covered:
- The logical fallacy known as “No True Scotsman",
- The first half (pages 84-87) of chapter 9 from “A Channeling Handbook”,
- Session 75 of the Law of One,
- Personal research updates from study group members along with discussion.

This week we plan to cover:
- The logical fallacy known as the “Genetic Fallacy",
- The second half (pages 87-91) of chapter 9 from “A Channeling Handbook”,
- Session 76 of the Law of One,
- Personal research updates from study group members along with discussion.

I'm not sure how to take that.
Did he literally get off to other men having sex with his wife or are we talking cuck more like how all XRP hodlers are cucks?

This is written above a doorway at St. Paul's Monastery on Mt. Athos in Macedonia:
If you die before you die, then you won't die when you die.

Memeing that, one might get:
If you live poor(beneath your means) before you retire, then you won't be poor when you retire....something like that.

I've told you about my homeless period and how much that affected me in different ways. Psychologically it made me doubt myself which made me "look over my own shoulder", or, in other words, do my due diligence and seek economic understanding. Most people fall into the category of "I want to act like I have an adult opinion on economics so I memorize a sound byte I overheard the pundits on TV/social media saying and cross my fingers, hoping no one will ask me anything deeper on the subject." I'd go so far as to say that even most of the people attending your salons fall into this category. Some may know more than that, but if most people are being honest, they are ignorant of such things. I know I sure was when I graduated. I didn't understand why I couldn't find a job. I had no concept of sub-prime mortgage bond bubbles bursting or anything like that.

In early 2023, I wrote a letter to the Missouri state representatives of the General Laws Committee who were considering a bill in committee. The bill would have made digital money illegal except for CBDC's which is total bullshit, hence me writing them. In that letter, I shared a parable:

Two young fish are swimming along and they cross paths briefly with an older fish. The older fish remarked in passing “Water’s great today, eh kids?”. The younger fish, eyes wide in confusion while attempting to maintain decorum and civility, nod and offer the older fish a hollow affirmation. A few minutes later, one of the younger fish turned to the other and said “What’s water?”. Most people today are the younger fish. They’re surrounded by an economy, an ocean of money but they don’t even truly understand what money is.

Some people from the salon may be familiar with AA, either directly or indirectly. The first step of the 12 steps is to admit you have a problem. Admitting ignorance of money, economics, networks, cryptography, etc. is all step 1. If they can't humble themselves to admitting their personal ignorance, they're a lost cause when it comes to Bitcoin.

Graduating in winter of 07 was brutal. I had a degree in applied mathematics and a student loan payment grace period that was quickly vanishing. I wound up homeless by 09, crashing on couches, living out of a few bags and my car. I had almost nothing. When I did land a good job, I could have elevated my living standards but, as a trauma response, I continued to live as though I was homeless and poor. I continued to live under strict personal austerity measures for years.

This is key. I was psychologically and economically broken by my experiences and so when it came to learning about Bitcoin, I was both willing to acknowledge that I was ignorant and, because I had lived well below my means for years, I had spare capital available to be allocated once I had heard enough compelling content that Bitcoin was the real deal.

If your salon attendees can check their egos, admit their ignorance, and humble themselves into learning a new thing, they will find themselves on the path for wholecoiner status. Depending on how much value they are able to provide, how much they are willing to sacrifice in terms of quality of life, and how disciplined they are able to be, they may be able to reach that goal.

Bitcoin is a test and/or a filter. The #1 thing it tests for is ego. Only those willing to say "Everything I was taught about money was bullshit and everyone who taught me about money had the wool pulled over their eyes too" will be humble enough to take the first steps. The good news here is that in a sovereignty salon, I would expect there to be a decent sized contingent of people who would consider themselves to be conspiracy theorists. The conspiracy theorist mind is open to such possibilities where the hyperminority is correct and everyone else has been impacted by mass formation psychosis.

Seems like you've just made a supporting argument for the validity of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
I've written about how Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs drives the "Bitcoin metanoia" before.
Also, can confirm. When I go into "super ninja focus" mode, it is a reallocation of my pie chart of attentional resources. Typically when I reallocate attentional resources, I reallocate them away from the sense of hearing to my sense of sight. I will still respond to auditory stimulus but only direct address, blood curdling screams, alarms, loud impact noises like crashes, etc. Everything else gets blocked out.

I wouldn't encourage anyone to leverage trade. I don't even know how to leverage trade on exchanges.
Having said that, an 8.37% move to the upside, if captured on a 50x leveraged trade, would have been about a 417.5% gain.
Depending on the initial bet size, that's not bad for 21 hours of sweat and anxiety lol.

Yellow lines are showing bullish divergence on the 1 hour candles. 4 hour candles show some bullish divergence too. Higher time frames aren't showing it though. Weekly RSI is approaching the "oversold" threshold.

All interaction influences people directly and indirectly, so I'm not buying that, even if you believe that to be the case. Your interactions do influence others whether that is your intended purpose or not.

Precisely stating problems not only eliminates wide sweeping psychological collateral damage done to huge portions of the population, it also encourages solving the actual problem being highlighted.

You're a fan of math-based money.
You're a fan of math-based social media protocols.
I would prefer it if everyone chose to adopt the precision of mathematical expression. I would prefer that everyone stop being rhetorically lazy.

Nope. I have a problem with people who virtue signal their affiliation with Christianity while spewing venom and toxicity in direct contradiction of the Golden Rule.

It seems that you didn't do the math before deciding to be an AZhole.
8+ billion people
~10% are L, G, B, or T.
That's over 800 million people.
Cut that into quarters and you have 200 million gay men, 200 million lesbian women, 200 million bisexuals, and 200 million trans.
