is there a section in the forum where they list airdops for BTC holders only? (don't wanna go through all the crap for shitcoin holders)
Bitcoin only should be default here in Bitcointalk. Leave the crypto crapto in the dedicated altcoin areas. |

I'll do 100 push-ups tomorrow as penance.
Do 100 sips of coffee. It's healthier.  |

Pushups? Aren't they a form of punishment inflicted on recruits in boot camp? |

Also, some people (like the character played by Seth Rogan in "Knocked up") claim that weed does magic to some diseases, but apart from glaucoma, the evidence is either thin, contradictory or patchy, imho.
There's lots of evidence that cannabinoids are effective in treating numerous conditions, e.g. epilepsy and COPD. Cannabis extracts play a big role in keeping my COPD under control, under the watchful eye of my respirologist and in addition to the bronchodilators he prescribes me. He was impressed with the improvement that came with my starting fairly large daily doses of cannabis extract (equal parts THC and CBD) buffered with cacao butter and administered rectally. Rectal consumption bypasses the liver so I don't get high.. If I consumed 200mg of that extract orally, I'd be a vegetable. Of course you can treat my experience as anecdotal as I don't know if there have been any double-blind, controlled studies made of this use of cannabis. The treatment of epilepsy with CBD on the other hand has been well documented. https://nyulangone.org/news/study-reveals-how-cannabidiol-counters-epileptic-seizuresUnfortunately the entire subject of cannabis treatment of diseases has been clouded by the fact that it gets people high. Some people who are principally motivated by a desire to get high will want to attribute wonder-drug cure-all powers to cannabis while also touting all the wonderful uses of hemp fibers and seeds. Other will react to this zeal with skepticism and discount any real value as mere fanboyism. It's important to keep an open mind. |

Then after an over-the-phone consult, the specialist wanted him off prednisone, first taking him to 1mg per day. At 1mg per day, he began having some pain again and when he was totally off it, more pain and less mobility. He was no longer walking around the block each morning so I made him call the specialist - I was fucking livid when she called and told him to begin taking 500mg of curcumin daily because I had already tagged it as a fad and fuck her replacing a drug that works with some unproven spice especially at my dad's age. It did nothing for him - NOTHING - now fast forward about two weeks when I took his morning coffee over he was sitting at the kitchen table telling me he didn't know if he could drink a coffee because his hands hurt so much he couldn't move his fingers. I immediately had him call the specialist who, without a consult or any tests, said, "Well it's not related to what I was treating you for so call your GP." I'm not a violent man but if it were possible to punch someone over the phone... Now he's back on 5mg predisone as prescribed by our family doctor and doing his daily walk once again. He was doing well on 2mg so this is a setback. The specialist wanted to see him again so I took him in expecting she would apologize for brushing him off but no... she wants to take him off prednisone... again.
Why would a licensed rheumatologist recommend curcumin to treat a known condition? What would make her think it's a viable treatment for any condition? Why would she think long term high dose of spice would be better than long term low dose of prednisone for that condition? If not prednisone, why not a proven, effective, NSAID instead? Why Biodom??? WHY? I don't even care how much they spent researching this fraud it's the far-reaching implications of the fraudulent research that's at issue. When a specialist swaps a known remedy for a fraudulent fuckin' fad, we're all in trouble. I have the unfortunate advantage of first hand experience.
Not all "specialists" are competent. Last year my family doctor retired after a long career. She had been my GP for over 30 years and was amazing. She never thought she knew it all and she had an impressive list of specialists she was happy to refer me to. When I discovered I had hepatitis-C. she sent me to the top hepatologist in the country, the head of the Liver Society of Canada. I'm still seeing the respirologist she referred me to years ago who has been keeping my COPD at bay. He's the top lung specialist at perhaps Toronto's best hospital. Now I'm concerned about what will happen if I need a specialist in another field or if my respirologist retires. Many doctors refer patients to cronies, family members or neighbors instead of sending them to the best specialists available. Your father's case clearly outlines this. Taking him off prednisone (which my old GP described as a wonder drug) and putting him on some zany herbal folk remedy is an outrageous example of malpractice. She should lose her license to practice medicine. His family doctor on the other hand seems to know what he's doing. He attacked the problem head-on with large prednisone doses and then tapered him off to exactly the right daily dose. Extreme caution must be exercised when prescribing corticosteroids to suppress the autoimmune system. Maybe his GP could refer him to a different rheumatologist even if it means driving him to a different city for in-person consultations. |

...for some reason my phone put its name on the image...
Get a different phone. It's totally unacceptable for a phone to advertise itself on every email or image. There's a good chance they want you to identify yourself to even use the phone. Totally bogus. |

Don’t tell the boomers that though. Billions & billions of boomer dollars are going to pump our bags through these ETF’s.
Boomers? Who's that? Anyone over the age of 19?  |

I'd like to quote Jimbo here in my defense (IIRC, apologies if I'm attributing this wrongly to him) : "Buy if you can and sell if you have to" and it was clearly a "have to" moment.
That's what I thought when I saw JJG's response to you. If you've gotta spend, you've gotta spend. It's not an option that can wait. Indeed I've preached "Buy if you can and sell if you must" for years. Save if you can, spend only if you absolutely must. Take your profits in Bitcoin. |

When is such supposed MegaCrash going to happen?
Sounds like either wishful thinking or probably a low coiner or no coiner or someone who sold way too many coins too soon.
Or an envious shitcoiner. |

Anyone with a brain should be able to see that credit cards are a scam. Debit cards are not much better. There are no fees or interest charged on cash and no minimum balances are required. There are no records kept of times, places, amounts, purposes, or the names of payers and payees in cash transactions. In other words: no monkey business, everything straight and honest. For decades I lived without bank accounts or cards. I only broke down and got a credit card to get a "free" t-shirt at the ballpark. I never expected them to give me an actual card with no bank account or job and I was surprised when they mailed me a card. I did find it made it easier to buy airline tickets and travel internationally but I still didn't get a bank account until I needed one to sell a couple of million dollars worth of Bitcoin and buy a lake. Luckily, in our town in Mexico there are no banks or credit cards. Everybody uses cash. So civilized. |

Fuck you status has nothing to do with Bitcoin or fiat money.
It's all about attitude.
Just stop worrying about money and things.
I did it in 1976. It's actually easy. Just stop worrying.
Sure, sometimes it can get a little dicey but in the long term it'll work out.
Yeah you might have to go for a day or two without eating. Don't worry, you won't starve to death.
Don't be a crybaby. Everything's fine.

Good morn Bitcoinland.
From here in Quintana Roo,
Sunny Mexico.
Got a nasty cold...
Too much air conditioning
Because of heat wave.
Plus bad connection
So no posting in a week.
It's much better now.
Got a good chuckle
From the ETF nonsense.
It was quite funny.
Flapping up and down
Right back to where it started.
Up on year to date.
One coin is one coin.
That is what really matters.
Slow and steady's good.

Years ago when I noticed my blood sugar starting to rise, I cut out all sugars and starchy foods like potatoes, rice, bread, cakes, cookies, candies, etc. I started using stevia in my morning coffee. It soon started bugging me though because it gave me a funny feeling in my mouth and made me drool. I reverted to a single spoonful of pure cane sugar in my coffee. Within a few months I'd lost 30lb and when I asked my doctor how my blood sugar was, she replied, "remarkably better, in fact better than mine". I later did some research and found an article from the University of California medical school explaining the glycemic chemistry of fructose and how it affects our blood sugar levels, and hence diabetes. It seems fructose is really a poison but nature provides an antidote in the form of fiber. Unfortunately most commercially available fruit juices have had all the fiber filtered out of them. Almost all soft drinks except pure soda water contain a particularly unhealthy ingredient called high-fructose corn syrup or glucose-fructose without any fiber. Fructose is sweeter than sucrose so sleazy businesses can save a buck by using a smaller (and thus cheaper) amount of fructose in their products than they would with real cane or beet sugar. At least in Mexico they still use real cane sugar in their Coca-Cola. I'm not at my principle residence where I have access to the article I'm citing but if I get a chance I'll post a link. TLDR- Stevia's OK but real cane sucrose is better. |

Good morning Bitcoinland.
I see a bunch of suckers/tarders got themselves long squeezed overnight. Will they never learn? Leverage isn't a tool. It's a weapon, mostly for suicide.
Meanwhile we're still well up on the year. We've already barted halfway back up from this morning's little episode.
Standard. Same old, same old.
One bitcoin is still worth 100M satoshis.
For every loser there's still a winner. Actually there are a lot more losers than winners, just as there are a lot more casinos than gamblers. It's the winnings and losses that are equal.
Go Bitcoin go.
