Black is my happy color. Little black dress magic

Curls up on the couch reading a book on a rainy day, listening to the rain outside—at that moment, the whole world felt quiet

The weather is really lovely this morning, and there are quite a few people out walking and exercising

I remember visiting a church in New York during Christmas; I plan to go again this Christmas

Haha, this cat thinks I'm doing something naughty

This really is an unexpected turn of events.

I am an independent voter and generally agnostic to political party. That said, if you are against Bitcoin and data centers in America, you are opposed to the long term strength of America. After today, I will never vote for a Democrat again. I love my country too much.

@QuintenFrancois So, did you buy it?

Pebble Beach, a mecca for golf, is a place crafted by Americans to look exactly like a scene imagined in the movies

There's a new $70 million dollar film titled, "BITCOIN," that is in postproduction. Gal Gadot, Casey Affleck, Pete Davidson, Isla Fisher. Good news and Bad News: Good news first: This will put Bitcoin front-and-center with major stars in a an actual, "big" movie (not just a documentary). Doug Liman directs. He did The Bourne Identity, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, The Edge of Tomorrow, and even Swingers (when I met him). He's incredible. I expect the direction (so meaning the acting) will be exceptional. Top-notch. This might be one of the first AI films but where all of the acting and performances are 100% actors. Meaning, they saved money on sets and lighting by filming in an empty warehouse, theater style. A.I. creates the environments. This would have been a $200 million+ movie otherwise. Okay now BAD NEWS: This film is the Craig Wright story! Gal Gadot plays a journalist who is hired by Pete Davidson (playing crypto investor Calvin Ayre) to investigate Casey Affleck (playing Craig Wright). If you're newer to Bitcoin and have been hiding under a rock, you may have missed that Craig Wright claimed he was Satoshi Nakamoto 🤣🤡 This went to court where the evidence was overwhelming that he defrauded and lied to the court with an abundance of forged documents. He was suing both Peter McCormack and Magnus Granath (Hodlonaut) for years, simply for claiming he was not Satoshi. In short, the court declared Craig was not Satoshi, did not write the Bitcoin white paper, and did not code any of its software. Based on the film's premise, the movie is going to skew toward Craig Wright being Satoshi. How could he not be Satoshi if a coalition of tech billionaires, governments, and crypto organizations spent hundreds of millions just to discredit him? That will be the narrative. A.I. versions of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Jack Dorsey appear in the film. So if Bitcoiners were expecting a balanced or honest portrayal of Bitcoin's beginnings... this isn't it. And I get why as a story-teller. If you set Bitcoin aside, it's a compelling narrative to focus on the misunderstood "genius" who gave the world perfect money but no one will believe him. Yet, Bitcoiners know this is flat out false. Oh... on top of all of this, the film is partially financed by... (drumroll)... Calvin Ayre! Calvin has been Craig Wright's main benefactor over the years and the most prominent supporter/promoter of Craig as Satoshi. So although a huge budget with A-list stars... it's really an indie movie made by Calvin Ayre about Craig Wright. As of this post there's no major domestic distributor outside of some international sales. I expect it to be a good film from a filmmaking aspect. But I'm bummed that the first big Bitcoin film, and with the title, "BITCOIN," might confuse newcomers on its history. There's always hope it gets other aspects of Bitcoin right (not Wright).

May life treat us gently, and may we always have the ability to discover happiness.

Be a gentle yet determined woman, with light in your eyes, dreams in your heart, and your own path beneath your feet.

Every single swing is a precise focus on the target.

Time never takes away a woman’s charm. What makes her shine brighter is experience, wisdom, kindness, and a heart that keeps moving forward.

Lighting up some white sage to let the smoke clear away all negative vibes. Spring cleaning my energetic field for pure peace.

Sometimes change does not mean the past was wrong. It simply means we have finally understood the life we truly want. Having the courage to leave the wrong path is also a sign of growth and maturity.

A breath of freshness by the desk reminds me to keep a sense of beauty no matter how fast I run.

Just because something hasn’t worked out yet doesn’t mean your effort is meaningless. It’s okay to move slowly and to feel tired sometimes. As long as I keep moving forward, I believe good things will eventually find me.

A cup of mysterious purple, a cup of gentle gold. Tonight the night is perfect, the breeze is soft, and the buzz is just right for secrets.
