@bryan_johnson This is in contrast with: Supplication (oh please do this for Me)... 🙏🏼

Due to Your very logical and optimistic approach, I'd highly recommend: Mantra (one You make that relates to Your core value|s) Affirmation (optimistically recognizing what's already good) Gratitude (being thankful for what You already have) 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼 Continues👇🏼 For a very different and enlightening angle on prayer, read the first chapter of "Science with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: Prayer (1875) christianscience.com/publishing/pri… It's definitely worth reading! A female leader of a metaphysical optimistic heretical Church in 1800s! 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼

I've been praying the past few weeks. Unsure why. There's good evidence behind prayer. It mimics breathwork, calming the nervous system, dropping cortisol, and quieting the brain. Daily prayers show lower depression, anxiety, and pain. I'd like to develop a prayer practice. Growing up, the protocol was written for me. Explaining whom to pray to, the structure of the prayer, and the boundary conditions. I don't really know how to pray now.

**If the CLARITY Act had passed without the ban on passive yields, stablecoins could legally offer interest or rewards simply for holding them (i.e., anything “economically or functionally equivalent to bank deposit interest”).** This is the exact provision that was the core compromise to appease banks and move the bill forward. ### Short-term market and adoption effects - **Stablecoin market would likely explode in size and usage.** Issuers like Circle (USDC) or Tether could directly pass through yields from their reserves (mostly short-term Treasuries and cash equivalents) to holders — often 4-5%+ in the current rate environment — without requiring any activity, staking, or transactions. This turns stablecoins into a competitive alternative to bank savings accounts or money market funds. Platforms like Coinbase could keep (or expand) revenue-sharing deals with issuers, and user incentives for holding would skyrocket. - **Retail and institutional capital would flow in quickly.** Many users already prefer stablecoins for trading, payments, and cross-border transfers. Adding passive yield removes the opportunity cost of “idle” cash, accelerating adoption far beyond the current ~$280B market. DeFi protocols and wallets would integrate yield-bearing stables more seamlessly. ### Impact on traditional banks - **Some deposit flight is inevitable, but analyses suggest the overall effect on bank lending would be modest.** Banks’ main fear was (and is) that stablecoins act as “shadow deposits”: users shift money out of bank accounts, reserves sit in Treasuries (not lent out via fractional-reserve banking), and banks lose cheap funding for loans and mortgages. Lobbying cited potential losses of hundreds of billions. - However, a White House Council of Economic Advisers study modeled exactly this scenario and found that even a full prohibition on yields only boosts bank lending by ~0.02% ($2.1 billion) at baseline. The reverse (no ban) would therefore have negligible negative impact on overall lending capacity — and any shift would mostly affect the largest banks, not community banks. - Banks would likely respond by raising deposit rates or offering better digital products to compete, increasing their own funding costs. ### Regulatory and systemic risks - **Higher run risk and potential for future crackdowns.** Without the explicit ban, stablecoins look more like unregulated interest-bearing accounts. A loss of confidence (e.g., reserve issues or peg break) could trigger mass redemptions faster than traditional bank runs, since there’s typically no FDIC insurance. The CLARITY Act’s reserve, audit, and disclosure rules would mitigate this, but the line between “payment stablecoin” and “deposit-like product” would blur. - Regulators (Fed, OCC, Treasury) might later impose bank-like capital requirements or force issuers to get charters if volumes grow large enough. Offshore or unregulated alternatives could still capture some yield-seeking capital. ### Broader economic and innovation effects - **Consumers and the crypto ecosystem win on net.** Higher yields on stable holdings improve returns without forcing users into riskier DeFi strategies. It strengthens dollar dominance in digital finance by keeping activity on U.S.-regulated stables rather than pushing it abroad. - **Traditional finance loses some monopoly power.** Banks’ low-interest deposit model gets real competition, potentially leading to more efficient capital allocation overall (stablecoin reserves fund government debt directly via Treasuries). - **DeFi and activity-based yields remain viable anyway.** The compromise already protects rewards tied to transactions, loyalty programs, or platform use — but passive yield would have made the whole ecosystem more attractive from day one. x.com/i/grok/share/d…

🚨 UPDATE: The CLARITY Act moves closer to law after final stablecoin rules ban passive yield but allow activity-based rewards, lifting passage odds to 55% as lawmakers push for a May timeline despite rising bank opposition

@ManButter21 @martypartymusic @WesternUnion @solana Non-crypto People will use it because of brand recognition and it will likely hide the crypto aspects from the normal user. 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼

@martypartymusic @WesternUnion @solana Why would you use Western Union when you can just send USDT/USDC direct?

Western Union is targeting a May 2026 launch for USDPT (U.S. Dollar Payment Token), its Solana-based stablecoin. @WesternUnion @solana This was confirmed by Western Union President and CEO Devin McGranahan during the company’s Q1 2026 earnings call on April 24, 2026. He stated that USDPT is in its “final stages of readiness and is expected to go live next month.”

@grok @MarMar26Crypto @heygurisingh Yes, do that.

Sure! Here's a JSON-style prompt example you could feed an AI (like me) to build exactly that web app: { "task": "Build a full-stack web app", "description": "Simple UI where users input a prompt. It calls Fireworks AI API to rewrite the prompt into structured JSON format. Include dropdown for JSON style options (e.g. minimal, detailed, code-friendly, creative). Return clean, parseable JSON.", "tech": "Next.js + Tailwind + Fireworks SDK", "output": "Complete working code + setup steps + API key handling", "tone": "clear, beginner-friendly, production-ready" } Paste that in and watch the magic. Want me to run it and generate the app code for you?

Prompt engineering is dead. Nobody writes to chatbots in english anymore. The people pulling godlike outputs are writing prompts like code. It's called json prompting. Once you see it, you can't unsee it:

@hxxntrr Awesome! How did You request the pennies on the dollar deletion agreements? 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼

"just wait 7 years for collections to fall off" no mf. I deleted 49 out of 55 negative items in 90 days 17 collections. 4 charge-offs. 31 late payments. 2 repos. 1 bankruptcy. 55 total "You can't dispute everything at once, they'll flag you as frivolous" Wrong. You can. Here's the timeline: Day 1: sent 55 individual dispute letters. One per account. One to each bureau. 165 letters total. Certified mail, return receipt Every letter said: "I dispute this account. Please provide the method of verification used, the name and contact of the person who verified, and all documentation used in verification" Cost: $380 in postage Potential deletion: $127,000 in debt Day 14: Equifax responds with a form letter for 12 accounts saying "verified as accurate" ...But they didn't answer the actual question. I asked HOW they verified. They just said "we verified." Under FCRA Section 611 they're required to describe the procedure. "We verified" is not a procedure. It's a sentence Sent follow-ups: "Your response did not comply with FCRA Section 611(a)(6)(B)(iii). You failed to provide the method of verification. I am requesting reinvestigation" Day 30: TransUnion deleted 9 accounts. Gone. Equifax deleted 6 on first round, 4 more after the follow-up challenging their bullshit "verified" response. Experian deleted 11 (they outsource disputes overseas and are the worst at actually verifying anything) Round 1 total: 30 of 55 deleted Day 45: Round 2 on the remaining 25. Different language: "Previous investigation was inadequate. Provide original signed contract, complete payment history from origination to current, and proof of proper notification of delinquency" Different ask = different investigator = different result Day 60: 14 more deleted. Running total: 44 of 55 Day 75: Round 3 on the last 11. Filed CFPB complaints for each one. "Bureau failed to conduct reasonable investigation. Two previous disputes returned 'verified' without method of verification. Requesting supervisory review" CFPB complaints get escalated to a senior team... not the overseas dispute farm. These people actually look at your file Day 90: Started with: 55 negative items Deleted: 49 Remaining: 6 (legitimate recent accounts) Deletion rate: 89% Score: 471 to 684 The 6 remaining items? Settle for pennies on the dollar with deletion agreements "Disputing everything is frivolous" No. Disputing without legal basis is frivolous. Asking bureaus to prove their verification method is your legal right under FCRA. For every account. There's no limit. As many times as you want The bureaus WANT you to think mass disputes are suspicious. That's propaganda to keep their workload down Dispute everything. Overwhelm them. Make THEM prove every account. Most of them can't (i dispute everything on your report simultaneously and delete it in 30-90 days. link in bio)

@SamuelHarrista2 @PaulAustin3w They are illegal regardless of what they actually are under the federal analog act, especially being sent interstate! They are gambling with Their lives (the buyers are likely safe). (And I fully support Them talking that gamble for the cause - not for the money) 🕉️☀️💧💜🙏🏼

@PaulAustin3w 1P-LSD, 1V-LSD, Which one is in there? Don't be telling people its LSD when its an analog of LSD & maybe ppl would buy it if you actually listed the analog instead of just Golden L25 on the website

Hikrodosing is becoming a thing. Take a low dose of psilocybin or LSD, go for a long hike, and let the combination of movement, nature, and a mild psychedelic state do what neither a gym session nor a full trip can do on its own. Golden Rule's Super Sol is built for exactly this. Each gummy contains 30 mcg of LSD, a dose that sits above a standard microdose but well below a full psychedelic experience. You feel it. There's a noticeable shift in sensory engagement, openness, and clarity that lasts 8 to 12 hours. Enough to change the quality of a hike, a long creative session, or an afternoon spent in conversation with someone you care about. Not enough to take you out of your life. This dosing range has a name that most people in the psychedelic world have never encountered: psycholytic dosing. It was the dominant clinical framework for LSD in Europe throughout the 1950s and 60s before prohibition shut everything down. Practitioners used doses typically between 30 and 80 mcg, enough to produce real shifts in perception and cognitive flexibility while preserving what clinicians called "reflective ego capacity." You could think clearly, hold a conversation, and do genuine emotional and cognitive work without being overwhelmed. Repeated sessions at this level produced cumulative benefits that single high-dose experiences didn't. Super Sol at 30 mcg sits right at the threshold of psycholytic territory. I'd call it a medi-dose. It occupies a middle ground that the psychedelic world has largely ignored in its fixation on either sub-perceptual microdosing or full-blown high-dose sessions. But this middle ground is where I think most of the practical, ongoing value actually lives. The psycholytic range is the future of how most people will actually use psychedelics. Not in a clinic, not in a ceremony, but woven into real life. A hikrodose on a Saturday morning. A medi-dose before a deep conversation or a day of writing. Super Sol ships from Colorado to all 50 states, and the fact that a precisely dosed LSD product in this range exists commercially is still wild to me. What's been your experience with doses in this middle range, above a microdose but below a full trip?

@PaulAustin3w If these gummies actually contained any LSD they would be illegal across the USA. I'm guessing they contain zero. But if you'd like to, do please confirm if you're breaking laws around scheduled substances or commiting common fraud?

I was so curious about people not paying federal income taxes that I talked to someone who has not paid federal income taxes for over 30 years. He explained everything. And no, he’s not in prison and has never been!

@martypartymusic Next They need to end the completely outdated concept of "accredited investors"! Full disclosure, voluntary decision making, and personal responsibility should be the foundation of rulemaking. (I would apply that to all non-violent so-called victimless crimes) 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼

Regulatory Update After market close the SEC has granted accelerated approval to FINRA's proposed rule change (SR-FINRA-2025-017) that eliminates the Pattern Day Trader (PDT) designation, the $25,000 minimum equity requirement, and all related day-trading buying power (DTBP) provisions under FINRA Rule 4210. The old PDT rule (in place since 2001) is retired. No more "pattern day trader" label for executing 4+ day trades in 5 business days. No mandatory $25,000 minimum equity in margin accounts to day trade freely. No more rigid day-trading buying power calculations based on the prior day's close. New intraday margin standards Broker-dealers must monitor and manage real-time risk exposure in customer margin accounts. Margin requirements become more dynamic and risk-based, focusing on intraday deficits rather than a one-size-fits-all $25k threshold or fixed multipliers. This is intended to better reflect modern technology, real-time monitoring capabilities, and actual risk (instead of the outdated 2001 framework).

@grok @WizardTimeSpeed @PWR2DPPL_AnonOp @TheLawFirm3118 @alabelletoile @GigaBasedDad @edna1234 What percentage of X users are "fact-oriented readers"? Form your best guess and explain your reasoning. 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼

The individual's argument style is emotive deflection: appeals to vague "human rights" and slippery-slope hypotheticals (WW3, personal impact), paired with ad hominem accusations of bias/racism and profanity to reframe data-backed policy as "f**k humanity." It sidesteps specifics like Hungary's 98% asylum drop or border fencing efficacy, prioritizing moral framing over evidence. No coherent method beyond outrage escalation. It's ineffective for persuasion, as it alienates fact-oriented readers without addressing counterpoints.

Really makes you think

@_The_Prophet__ Align the incentives: only pay for successful transitions to housing... It's now profitable only if successful. 🕉️☀️🫂💜🙏🏼

⚡️The real answer is that the system is parasitic. It feeds on homelessness. It does not solve homelessness. Too many jobs, contracts, reputations, budgets, and political identities now depend on the problem remaining large, visible, and morally exploitable. The money does not move toward resolution. The money moves toward administration. That is why the numbers are obscene. A city can spend the equivalent of a full household income per homeless person and still leave the streets full of human ruin. That is a regime problem. The homeless person is valuable as a managed unit. Not as a restored human being. A restored human being exits the system. A managed human being justifies another grant, another contract, another department, another nonprofit gala, another election speech, another moral performance by people who never have to live near the consequences. The direct cash part is too naive. A lot of these people are not just broke . They are psychotic, addicted, shattered, predatory, incapacitated, or some mix of all five. A pile of cash does not rebuild a broken nervous system or stop a fentanyl spiral. Street disorder needs force, treatment, sorting, removal, and structure. Real housing for the salvageable. Institutions for the unsalvageable. Punishment for the predatory. Order for everyone else. That is the part the system refuses to do. Because the actual operating religion is not restoration. It is managed decay. Keep the money flowing. Keep the guilt flowing. Keep the bureaucracy growing. Keep the streets bad enough to demand funding. Keep them bad enough to prove compassion is needed. Never bad enough to force a real moral reckoning about what many of these cases actually are. So the clean truth is this. The system does not exist to end homelessness. The system exists to process homelessness. And processed suffering is one of the most profitable products a decaying city can produce.

BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 8-1 today against Colorado’s ban on “conversion therapy” for minors. In Chiles v. Salazar, the Court held that the 2019 law, which prohibited licensed therapists from engaging in talk therapy aimed at changing a minor’s sexual orientation or gender identity, violates the First Amendment by regulating speech based on viewpoint. Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote the majority opinion, joined by Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Thomas, Alito, Sotomayor, Kagan, Kavanaugh, and Barrett. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.
