Looked into spending bitcoin in Canada today. Biggest laugh. Best tech is gift cards. Send sats, get Amazon code. Ten years on….Monero is no different. Are we early or is this never gonna happen…? :btc: :xmr_coin: #bitcoin #xmr #Canada #nostr

GM everyone.

Happy Thanksgiving from Canada. Family day today, good food, zero rush. That's really what it's all about.

Grateful for the folks around the table. The rest is just noise.

Enjoy your Monday.

My take on the Canadian election: the country’s still 4–5 years behind the U.S., but the shift is coming. The student vote showed young people leaning Conservative—they’re broke and tired of the green-and-gay narrative, while Boomers cling to the system just long enough to squeeze out their pensions.

Gen X—my crew—is small, burnt out, and just trying to survive. We’re not loud, we’re not mobilized—we’re busy keeping the lights on. Millennials? Obsessed with abortion and scared of anything outside the state-approved script.

Quebec, as usual, played it weird. Liberals overperformed, and somehow the old separatists have turned into die-hard Canadian patriots. The country’s polarized, Bitcoin has no real future here, and I’m glad I’ve been working on an exit strategy these past five years.

Joseph de Maistre said it best: every people gets the government it deserves. Canada is getting more and more like California—but with fewer constitutional rights and shitty weather. Not sure if I want to grow old here or raise my kids in this mess. #Canada

Looks like Canada’s gearing up for a federal election, and—surprise!—the Liberals will probably win again. Canadians seem to think another 4 years of the same is the best choice. Truth be told, whether it’s the Liberals or Poilievre’s Conservatives, it’s pretty much more of the same… #Canada
