I just self-published a book - The Adventures of Leo & Henry - The Quest for the Lost Sword. This is a boys' book, I suspect for around ages 8+, and a quick read (under 80 pages). It is also my first book and was born out of the bedtime stories I make up for my sons. Yes, their names are Leo and Henry.. and yes, they are the heroes! This project is also an homage to a pastiche of things I enjoyed when I was their age, satiating my own nostalgia for unabashed boys’ stuff. It’s The Hardy Boys, Tom Swift Jr, and imagining what it may have been like if a young Indiana Jones were Catholic. This particular story is a fairly straightforward adventure. When a medieval heirloom, the Sword of St. Henry (I made it up), is stolen from its rightful caretaker, the boys embark on a quest to recover it. They encounter mystery, legend, and a sinister SECRET ORDER. The book is now available for purchase on Amazon and Gumroad (digital version only). I am also giving away the PDF for free for those who want the bootleg version. ..but wait, why is Flattery larping as an author now? Great question. The answer is that it seems kids pull unlikely things out of Dads in our desire to thrill them. So I had a lot of fun doing this and will likely be doing more, (if my audience of two demands it).

Capping interest rates on credit cards probably inhibits mom and pop startups. For better or worse, a lot of small businesses are bootstrapped on the personal credit of the owner. If/when capping interest rates leads to the inevitable lower supply of credit, you take away this source of funding. At the other end of the spectrum Megacorps are unaffected. They have access to bank financing and capital markets. So you get less small business formation while established companies solidify their status quo position.

Vance is going to be the next president send tweet
I don't worry about my kids making mistakes, or developing views they later regret. I don't even worry that much about trolls on the internet. You know what I do worry about, Ro? That they'll grow up to be a US Congressmen who engages in emotional blackmail over a kid's social media posts. You disgust me.

I used to work for a guy who said 'never invest in a company with a fat CEO.' Now we have 'never shut down your life when manboob fiat experts decide to freak out about a respiratory illness.'
It's been five years since all the world's manboobed fiat experts decided to freak out about a respiratory illness. Since then, they have told you to: 1- Panic 2- Breathe through dirty cloth 2- Stay home 3- Take lucrative experimental gene therapy from companies immune from legal liability This Twitter account, on the other hand, has constantly and relentlessly told you to: 1- Ignore the fiat noise 2- Eat meat 3- Get sun 4- Lift heavy things Five years on, it is very clear which strategy worked better. The bad news is that the fiat hysterics did a lot of damage over these five years. The good news is that their entire fiat economy is down more than 90% in bitcoin terms in these five years. They can't have many more 90% drops left.

@BitcoinPierre @MorgenRochard I thought I was going to hate on it, but then I just couldn't help but like your dancing.
