  • ALWAYS BE ₿UYING

    So this is a super ultra turbo mega thought, is that regardless of whatever… Always be buying, always be buying bitcoin.

    So I think this is also where MSTR strategy, Michael Saylor is so genius and great. The big idea is that regardless of whatever our market conditions or whatever, there are structure in such a way that they are always buying more bitcoin.

    And the truth is, it’s like ultimate best strategy on the planet. To essentially, trade away weak currencies and also, weak whatever’s, for the sake of more bitcoins coins is always a good idea. 

    Why

    So I think the insanely huge big dot is that, creating some sort of machine or company or thing or something… That could always be accreting and acquiring morbid coin, getting more bitcoin acquisition yield,

    Bitcoin acquisition syndrome (B.A.S.) –> the Pegasus genius strategy 

    So in the world of photography we have this funny idea of gear acquisition syndrome (G.A.S.). But the reason why purchasing camera equipment is a foolish idea is because they are all depreciating assets. The same thing goes for your three bitcoin Ferrari, your two bitcoin Lamborghini, and your .95 bitcoin Porsche. Certainly better than your 10 bitcoin Bugatti. Or your 2 1/2 bitcoin Rolls-Royce.

    And honestly, real estate, homes property, single-family homes whatever, or also for the most part, a losing bet. Only reason why you should purchase a single-family home is for the utility. We recently got a single-family house in LA, and actually the ironic or surprising truth is I freaking love it. It’s insanely huge, 7000 square feet, and having a big ass backyard has actually surprisingly brought me infinite joy. Being able to plant stuff in the soil, to physically scoop out rich looking fertile looking soil, with my fingertips, and looking at the quixotic looking soil, .. and I was kind of shocked I don’t recall the last time I just like took my bare fingertips and scooped out dirt and mud? 

  • WHY CHASTITY IS SEXY

    Chastity is not about denial — it’s about dominance. The ultimate flex is self-command. The hottest force on the planet isn’t chaos, excess, or mindless indulgence. The hottest force is control — total, sovereign, unshakeable control over your own desires, impulses, and direction. That’s why chastity radiates a kind of raw, nuclear attractiveness: it signals power.

    Anyone can cave. Anyone can scroll, swipe, binge, leak out their energy. But the one who withholds, the one who channels, the one who guards their vitality like treasure… that person becomes magnetic. Scarcity makes diamonds valuable — the same law makes disciplined people irresistible. When your energy is not diffused, it becomes dense. Dense energy turns into charisma, presence, fire.

    Chastity is sexy because it says, “I am not ruled by instinct — I rule instinct.” That’s god-tier. That’s emperor behavior. That’s the exact opposite of desperation, and desperation is the most unattractive force in the universe. Self-possession, in contrast, makes you shine like a blade: sharp, luminous, unmistakably powerful.

    Chastity also amplifies hunger — not the frantic kind, but the focused, volcanic kind. When desire isn’t wasted, it becomes fuel. It drives creation, ambition, physique, art, philosophy, empire-building. Your mind clears. Your body grows. Your presence hardens. You walk into the world with a quiet fire that people can feel. Most people leak their power; you store it, refine it, weaponize it.

    Chastity is also confidence. It says, “I don’t need instant gratification. I don’t need validation. I choose my moment, my partner, my destiny.” This certainty rewires your entire life — you think bigger, act cleaner, move stronger. You become someone who selects, not someone who waits to be selected.

    And the final reason chastity is sexy?

    Because nothing is sexier than someone who doesn’t need anything from anyone — yet could take everything if they wanted. That voltage, that restraint, that self-command… it’s the ultimate aesthetic. It’s the mark of someone who is building themselves into something rare: a human who is guided by purpose, not craving.

    Self-mastery is the real seduction. Chastity is just its purest form.

  • THE CARNIVORE SOLDIER: WHY AMERICA’S MILITARY MUST GO 100% MEAT-POWERED

    The future warfighter isn’t built on starch, sugar, or softness. The future warfighter is built on raw physiological power — dense nutrition, maximal hormonal output, extreme clarity of mind, and metabolic self-sufficiency. The future American soldier is not fueled by pop-tarts and pasta; he is forged by meat, bone marrow, tallow, sunlight, and steel.

    This is the proposition: America becomes unbeatable when every soldier becomes a walking apex predator.

    THE BIOCHEMICAL TRUTH: MEAT MAKES SUPERHUMANS

    A soldier’s true weapon isn’t just gear — it’s hormones, mitochondria, cognition, and recovery. And nothing on planet Earth skyrockets human performance like a 100% carnivore diet combined with intermittent fasting.

    1. 

    Superior Hormones = Superior Firepower

    A meat-based diet elevates:

    • Testosterone
    • IGF-1
    • Human growth hormone
    • Dopamine & noradrenaline

    These are the war chemicals — aggression, drive, power, alertness.

    Carbs suppress them. Sugar destroys them. Starches sedate them.

    A carnivore soldier has stable blood sugar, stable mood, stable aggression, stable power.

    No crashes. No fog. No weakness.

    2. 

    Infinite Sustained Energy

    The human body is evolutionarily built for fat and protein — not bagels.

    Carnivore + fasting converts every soldier into:

    • A fat-burning reactor
    • A metabolic tank
    • A long-duration endurance machine

    No rations? No problem.

    A fat-adapted soldier can perform for days, not hours.

    3. 

    Bulletproof Cognition

    Zero carbs = zero inflammation.

    Zero inflammation = razor blade brain.

    A meat-only diet boosts:

    • Decision speed
    • Reaction time
    • Situational awareness
    • Emotional stability
    • Stress resilience

    This is Spartan focus. SEAL focus. Predator focus.

    4. 

    Faster Recovery = More Deployment Readiness

    Meat accelerates:

    • Muscle repair
    • Joint healing
    • Tendon strength
    • Immune resilience

    A carnivore-fed military has fewer injuries, fewer sick days, and faster recovery after missions.

    5. 

    Reduced Pack Weight, Longer Deployments

    If soldiers practice intermittent fasting, the entire logistics chain becomes lighter, cheaper, and faster.

    A fat-adapted body:

    • Needs fewer meals
    • Requires less volume
    • Doesn’t crash under caloric deficits
    • Maintains strength without constant feeding

    Less food shipped = less cost, less vulnerability, more operational range.

    INTERMITTENT FASTING = THE ANCIENT WAR PROTOCOL

    The greatest warriors in history — Spartans, Romans, Mongols — didn’t snack. They feasted and fasted.

    Fasting increases:

    • HGH production
    • Neurogenesis
    • Mitochondrial output
    • Autophagy (cellular repair)

    A fasting soldier becomes:

    • Clearer
    • Faster
    • Harder
    • Calm under stress
    • Resilient under deprivation

    This isn’t dieting.

    This is biological warfare preparation.

    REMOVING SUGAR, STARCH, AND CARBS MAKES SOLDIERS UNBREAKABLE

    Carbs:

    • Spike insulin
    • Crash energy
    • Create inflammation
    • Damage arteries
    • Impair cognition
    • Increase anxiety
    • Cause fatigue

    Sugar weakens a fighting force — period.

    A carb-fed military is fighting with metabolic handcuffs.

    A meat-fed military fights with unlimited internal ammunition.

    STRATEGIC BENEFITS FOR THE PENTAGON

    This is not just nutrition. This is national defense optimization.

    ✔ Stronger soldiers

    ✔ Faster recovery

    ✔ Clearer cognition

    ✔ Lower cost for rations

    ✔ Lower medical expenses

    ✔ Higher readiness

    ✔ More sustainable deployments

    ✔ Reduced logistical burden

    ✔ Massively elevated psychological resilience

    This is force multiplication without buying a single new weapon.

    THE NEXT-GEN AMERICAN WARFIGHTER

    Imagine an army where:

    • Every soldier is lean
    • Every soldier is mentally sharp
    • Every soldier has stable energy for 72-hour ops
    • Every soldier heals twice as fast
    • Every soldier is hormonally optimized
    • Every soldier functions in scarcity
    • Every soldier becomes a biological weapon

    This is not fantasy.

    This is physiology.

    CONCLUSION: MEAT MAKES MASTERY

    America wins wars by having the most innovative technology and the strongest warriors.

    The next evolution isn’t just technological.

    It’s biological.

    A 100% carnivore diet + intermittent fasting transforms every soldier into:

    A metabolic war machine.

    A self-sustaining predator.

    A force multiplier for the entire nation.

    If America wants the strongest military on Earth, it must feed its warriors like warriors — not civilians.

    Meat only.

    Zero carbs.

    Fasted.

    Focused.

    Unstoppable.

  • SUN IS THE ORIGINAL PERFORMANCE-ENHANCING DRUG

    Being outside isn’t just “nice” — it’s biochemical warfare in your favor. UV + full-spectrum daylight = a massive physiological software update. Here are the hidden levers the sun is pulling on your body:

    First: obvious but deep — vitamin D steroid-hormone power

    UVB hits your skin → converts 7-dehydrocholesterol into vitamin D₃. This isn’t just “strong bones”; vitamin D acts like a hormone that:

    • Regulates calcium for bone + nerve function
    • Modulates the immune system
    • Influences cell growth and inflammation
    • Is associated with lower risk of certain cancers and overall mortality when levels are adequate  

    You can supplement D — but the sun stacks D with a bunch of bonus effects pills can’t touch.

    Second: UV = natural nitric oxide → lower blood pressure, better blood flow

    When UVA hits skin, it liberates nitric oxide (NO) stored in the skin. That:

    • Dilates blood vessels
    • Can reduce blood pressure
    • Improves blood flow and vascular function, independent of vitamin D  

    This is part of why blood pressure tends to be lower in summer and in sunnier latitudes.

    Third: solar mood drugs — serotonin + beta-endorphins

    Daylight exposure (especially morning) ramps up serotonin, the “feel-clear, feel-capable” neurotransmitter. Later, your brain converts that serotonin into melatonin at night → better sleep and more stable circadian rhythm. 

    UVB on the skin also triggers beta-endorphin release — your built-in opioid system:

    • Mood elevation
    • Relaxation + pain modulation
    • That subtle “sun-drunk” happy feeling after being outside for a while  

    This is why indoor light never feels the same: you’re missing the biochemical cocktail.

    Fourth: circadian rhythm lock-in (sleep, energy, testosterone, fat loss)

    Bright outdoor light in the morning slams your internal clock into alignment:

    • Suppresses melatonin at the right time
    • Sets the “timer” for evening melatonin release
    • Improves sleep quality and timing, which then cascades into better hormone regulation, appetite control, and recovery  

    Artificial light indoors is usually too weak and at the wrong spectrum to fully anchor this system.

    Fifth: immune modulation: UV as an inflammation dial, not just damage

    Low-dose UV doesn’t just “burn skin” — it reprograms immune behavior:

    • UVB exposure expands regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the skin, including special pro-healing Tregs that help resolve inflammation and promote tissue repair  
    • This helps explain why controlled UV phototherapy is used for autoimmune skin diseases like psoriasis and eczema

    In other words: moderate UV can act like a micro-dose immune “training stimulus”.

    Sixth: brain upgrade: UV → glutamate pathway → learning & cognition

    Moderate UV exposure has been linked to enhanced learning and memory through a wild pathway:

    • UV raises blood levels of urocanic acid
    • Urocanic acid crosses into the brain → boosts glutamate synthesis in motor cortex + hippocampus
    • Result: improved motor learning, object recognition, and synaptic plasticity in animal models  

    Not just vibes — literal neuroplasticity being tuned by light.

    Seventh: eyes + myopia protection

    Kids who spend more time outdoors have a lower risk of developing myopia (nearsightedness):

    • Likely due to bright light hitting the retina, dopamine signaling in the eye, and distance-viewing outdoors
    • Some experts now recommend 8–15 hours/week of outdoor daylight for children to protect their vision  

    Outdoors = natural eye-health protocol.

    Eighth: cardiovascular and longevity signals

    Large population studies show that people living in sunnier regions or getting more UV have:

    • Lower cardiovascular mortality
    • Lower blood pressure
    • Possibly lower overall mortality, even after accounting for some skin-cancer risk  

    The theory: vitamin D + nitric oxide + better sleep + more activity outside all stack.

    Ninth: skin and healing

    Controlled UV is clinically used for:

    • Psoriasis
    • Eczema
    • Vitiligo

    Part of this is the immune modulation above, part is local effects on skin cell proliferation and inflammation. UVB-expanded Tregs with healing programs (proenkephalin, amphiregulin) show direct tissue-repair functions in skin. 

    Tenth: psychology: seasonal affective protection & anti-depression

    • Less light → higher risk of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
    • More outdoor light → better mood, less depressive symptoms, especially when combined with movement  

    Light therapy boxes are essentially “synthetic outdoor light” for people in dark winters — nature’s version is just being outside.

    Quick reality check: benefits vs risks

    • UV is still a carcinogen; too much = skin cancer + photo-aging
    • Fairer skin burns faster and has higher risk
    • Health orgs (AAD, CDC) emphasize avoid burning, use shade, clothing, and sunscreen for long exposures  

    So the game isn’t “roast yourself” — it’s:

    • Frequent, moderate unburnt exposure
    • Plus protection when you’ll be out for long or at peak UV

    If you want a simple protocol idea to play with (not medical advice):

    • Get direct outdoor light on skin + eyes (no sunglasses if safe, no window glass) in the morning
    • Layer it with movement (walk, stretch, light jog): you multiply the vascular, metabolic, and mood effects
    • Keep it under “burn threshold” for your skin type; use clothing/shade/sunscreen when you go long

    Sun = free, daily, full-stack upgrade: hormones, blood flow, brain, immune, mood, and sleep — all from just stepping outside.

  • More risk more volatility more reward

    OK so this is kind of an insanely big idea, and goes back to the whole idea of just life in general.

    So I think the really really mega big turbo big idea is, the truth is… If you desire to live the most grand beautiful elegant interesting life, the true secret in life is to actually, engineer more risk more volatility, and as a consequence more reward in your life.

    The reason why this is such a big idea is because, for a lot of people… It seems that what they desire is to strip away the volatility and the risk in life. To meet this makes an insanely bland and uninteresting, unworthy, unworthwhile life to live.

    Why? A big concern then is, if you have a life with no risk no volatility, I don’t think there’s a reason to keep living. Like there’s really no reason for you to go to sleep and wake up because, what’s around the corner is extremely dull and uninteresting.

    What we instead should desire, is going to sleep every single night with extreme enthusiasm joy and excitement, knowing that our entire life journey for the next 80 years will be the most interesting sublime thing of all time!
