DISCLAIMER: The Fine Art of Not Taking Advice (Especially Mine)

 

The Fine Art of Not Taking Advice (Especially Mine)

If you’ve ever stumbled onto a blog in search of wisdom, you may have noticed a pattern: people handing out life-changing secrets like they’re free mints at a diner. Not here. Nope. What you’ll get here is more like the fortune inside a cookie that was written by someone running late for lunch.

Take, for example, financial advice. Other blogs will tell you to diversify your portfolio. Me? I’ll tell you not to keep all your eggs in one basket…unless the basket is really big, made of titanium, and guarded by three very angry geese. Same idea, but clearly less actionable.

Or medical advice. Some blogs will explain the benefits of leafy greens. I’ll remind you that pizza is technically a salad if you squint at the toppings. Don’t quote me on that at your next doctor’s visit, though.

And relationship advice? The best I’ve got is: don’t text your ex at 2 a.m., unless you’re a historian, in which case… maybe you’re just fact-checking.

The point is: life is complicated. Blogs should be fun. And if you ever find yourself taking this blog seriously, please re-read the disclaimer below twice, then call someone who actually knows what they’re talking about.

🚨 Mega Disclaimer 🚨

This blog is not financial, medical, legal, psychological, marital, parental, chemical, scientific, nutritional, investment, career, plumbing, rocket science, relationship, spiritual, tax, veterinary, weather, fortune-telling, DIY surgery, cooking, mechanical engineering, time travel, fashion consulting, intergalactic diplomacy, or common-sense advice.

It is for entertainment, amusement, distraction, procrastination, and maybe mild confusion. Any similarities to people living, dead, fictional,  historical, or not yet born are purely coincidental, accidental, incidental, nonsensical, and probably inevitable when enough words are thrown at a page. If you feel otherwise, please lie down in a quiet room until the feeling passes.  

Proceed accordingly.

How to Stop Worrying and Learn to Love Bitcoin Volatility

  Volatility is the main reason many people hesitate to get involved with Bitcoin. The sharp rises and sudden drops in price can feel intimidating compared to traditional investments. But here’s the twist: volatility isn’t always the enemy—it can actually be your friend if you understand how to work with it. The Stock Market Lesson In the world of stocks, investors sometimes use “loss harvesting” as a strategy. Imagine you buy shares of a company at $100, and later the price dips to $80. On paper, that’s a loss. But in practice, you can sell those shares, record the $20 loss against your taxable gains, and then repurchase the stock later. Over time, those harvested losses can soften the blow of market swings and even improve overall returns. Applying Loss Harvesting to Bitcoin Bitcoin doesn’t behave exactly like stocks, but the idea of benefiting from price swings still applies. Because Bitcoin is volatile, there are more frequent opportunities to buy at dips and average down ...

When Food Waste Becomes More Valuable Than Food

 🧠💡 When Food Waste Becomes More Valuable Than Food: Bitcoin Mining with Tomatoes 🍅💰 In today’s world of rising Bitcoin prices and energy innovation, a new model is taking shape—one where unsold produce or food waste can be worth more when converted into energy than when sold. Let’s break it down with a simple example: 👇👇👇 📍 Tomatoes at a Farmers Market (August) Farm-fresh tomatoes in August usually go for $3–$4/lb in places like the Northeast. 🧺 10 lbs of tomatoes = 💵 $30 to $40 But what about the tomatoes that don’t sell? Overripe, bruised, or imperfect? 👇 🔥 Turning Unsold Tomatoes into Bitcoin Instead of tossing them, farmers can use anaerobic digesters to convert them into methane gas. That gas powers generators... that mine Bitcoin ! 📊 Methane & Energy Yield from 10 lbs: ~4.5 kg of waste → ~1,135–1,362 liters of methane ~11.35–13.62 kWh of electricity ⛏️ Bitcoin Mining Efficiency: Takes ~266K–350K kWh to mine 1 BTC So 1 kWh = ~2....

What if the CIA were the good guys and saved us with Bitcoin?

  For years, whispers about Bitcoin’s origins have swirled around the internet. Was it an eccentric coder? A group of cryptographers? A pseudonymous genius? Among the many theories, one always resurfaces: what if the CIA had a hand in creating Bitcoin? Usually, the suggestion comes with a dark overtone — control, surveillance, some sinister financial plot. But what if the opposite were true? What if, for once, the CIA were the good guys ? A Country on the Brink Picture the U.S. in the late 2000s: spiraling deficits, ballooning government spending, and a fiat system fraying at the edges. The financial crisis exposed the vulnerabilities of money backed by nothing but promises. Inside intelligence circles, the writing may have been on the wall: the dollar’s long-term supremacy was under threat, and with it, America’s global standing. Maybe, just maybe, a handful of idealists within the agency saw Bitcoin as a lifeline — a tool to protect not just the U.S., but the world, from th...
