And also also, boy did this get expensive, all the fluids (and a spanner and a cheap glycol tester) landed just south of 150 USD equivalents.
And since I'm going to replace the cooing fluid anyway I will know the exact ratio anyway (50/50) so I don't really need the tester, but hey, I liked it and it was only 5 bucks.

https://twitter.com/LinaSeiche/status/1429664737567010816Precisely this. My friend who has been doing the standard meme things (buying shitcoins, selling during the last correction and setting his buy orders $5 below the bottom, trading with all his stash etc) now has cold feet because Bitcoin "is too volatile and manipulable by big players" and can't be convinced that it's any better than fiat or, as he says, "the old system" because of that. Seems to be getting him quite anxious and he just can't understand how I can hodl and be cool as a cucumber.
JJG, your value post is precisely what I mean. Negotiation is the exploration of who gets what share of the excess value. I'd say it's almost never evenly divided and no reason it should be.

And also, I had no idea cars doesn't have distributor caps anymore.

Nice pump.
Coming in handy as I'm going shopping with my Binance card.
I'm about to go do some more early morning shopping, have to buy some more love for my car.
I'm gonna change the motor oil and filter and rear axle oil and replace the coolant, and the distributor and rotor, it wouldn't start on a very humid day this summer, I had to feed it starter gas to get it going on three cylinders and after idling on that for a while the fourth started too, haven't had any problems since but I suspect a small crack or something in the distributor cap to be the reason so changing it, and it's about time anyway.
Still to do is changing oil in the gearbox, but that's a pain in a automatic, so I'll let a garage do that.
Winter is coming.

Also consider plugs/wires. They are high voltage, and as such, moderately high-stress. Modern ignition is much better than old ones, but since you mentioned a distributor/cap you have an older one. Go ahead and do the plugs/wires as well.
Yes you are right but I already did them last year and was going to do the distributor and rotor as well then but never got around to it.

I have also learned to try NOT to get too surprised by anything, even while I am ongoingly "I told you"ing folks about where we are at.. and so many of them remain nocoiners.. so I just ongoingly wonder and wonder and wonder when they are going to get in.. are they waiting for $1 million coins or what?
This is a very important thing to cultivate. It has made me generally peaceful through many of the downs (and ups!) of Bitcoin over the years. I cannot say I am 100% cured in this regard, but one of the strange things I have learned over the last decade is to not care about money all that much any more. It really does not fix anything, and most of the things we think it will do for us... it will not.
A kind of side story: yesterday, one of my uncles mentioned something about since I have bitcoin that I am going to be able to do whatever I want when bitcoin reaches $1 million, and I asked why the hell would I personally need $1 million per coin.. I said for rounding off purposes, we could just figure that my costs per BTC are around $1k, and I am wondering if he could even imagine why someone in my position would need any more BTC price appreciation in order to be happy.. why do I give any shits if BTC reaches a million or not? Sure, I hope BTC does not go back below $20k.. and I am even doubting the possibility of that ever happening again, so if we have spot price profits that ends up being around 50x in profits for me and a kind of guaranteed ongoing profits of 20x, then why would I need more than that.... I said that is already amazing profits, and I am not even saying that bitcoin is not going to $1 million.. I said that there still is no other investment that is as good as bitcoin.. even given current market conditions
I said sure, maybe if I buy a helicopter, then my problems could be solved because so many people get rich and they buy helicopters and then they crash their helicopters when they had a lot going for them. .Maybe it is not a good idea to buy a helicopter, then. I had some other frustrations talking with seemingly committed no coiners.. and just seems crazy.. that so many of the no coiners still do not want to budge... when? when? when? I don't know.. they may well wait until we get to FOMO position.. and we are not there, yet.. even though they consider that we are already in FOMO status.. and we are quite likely not.. not yet.

This is one of the most weirdly frustrating things. I have not cast many pearls really, because people do not listen to you, and it's a waste of time. But now and then I try, and it still blows my mind.
I accidentally left a bluetooth headset in a box I handed off to a co-worker. This morning he asked if I could give him my address and he'd mail it. I said, sure, and told him if he gives me a BTC address i will cover more than the postage. "Nah.", He said... "no worries". "Well, just think! If I send you 10-15 bucks in BTC today, it could be worth a lot more in a few years!". "I could only wish that would be true." was his final reply.
I would really like to give him the money. But if he's going to remain asleep then I am not going to waste SATS sending them to a wallet he will not be able to find the keys for when he realizes it is now worth $500. And I will not be able to bear the message I will get... "Hey! How can I get to the Bitcoin you sent me?" You can't. Neither of us can now...
I have another workmate that I sent $5 to in BTC years ago. This one, though I set up the wallet and keep a copy of the seed words myself. Good thing, as I am 100% sure he's lost it, and it's worth 4 figures in USD now. I am not sure what I will charge him to give him the keys later.
It's so weirdly frustrating.

We are approaching buddies next number.
Would be nice to see some solid lifting.
maybe 51k and 52k for monday.
next poll
35k or 70k?
I sold a bit at 50k+
Still stacking and selling less than I mine.
Dumping all the
LTC
Doge
Eth
That I mine
for fiat and Btc.
Working on a family emergency 🆘.
My bro-in-law had a heat stroke and was hospitalized with failed kidneys.
It will take quite a while to fix all the problems involved.
Maybe no true fix as long term care seems to be likely.
As an older guy 64 here is free advice from me.
Take care of your body.
Dont get hammered every day.
Eat decent food most of the time.
Find a solid lover and have tons of sex as it will give the two of you good reason to take care of your body.
Over the years of life I can tell you no drug or alcohol 🥃 matches a solid night in bed with your lover.

Price looking good today. Out of a few possible bullish fractals that were likely to play out, looks like price found it's outcome following a 4 candle correction from a TD 9 Sell Signal 
The 21 Day MA and previous resistance held as support (circled purple), currently anticipating further upside to the 0.618 fib retracement level (circled red) where there is minor confluence of previous resistance.
Furthermore, price strength is currently testing the bearish divergence that developed this month. A close above would be a nice set up for further upside:
That said, a breakdown today below the Daily opening price of $49.125 would further confirm and reinforce the bearish divergence likely leading to a correction back to the 200 Day MA.
The market is otherwise still lacking volume with low volatility, so this is far from the a breakout. Price is merely continuing to grind upwards, not that this is a bad thing either.

Me? For a long time (say post 2017, in 2017 I cashed out as well, from 2018 - 2020 I bought), I aimed for +/- 1% of my net in BTC (none in alts). As BTC rose, I would on occasion re-balance my portfolio by selling (or trading BTC for gold). Typically during 2020 (and especially 2021) the BULL MARKET ran away from me so fast that it was hard to balance it back down to 1%. But, that's OK, good, in a bull market. Right now I am roughly 1.5%.
DO keep in mind that even my HODLing 1% (subject to irregular re-balancing) in the past year and a half or so has yielded me well over 1% in my whole portfolio. I will have to do the numbers, but even just a HODLing at 1% has probably grown my portfolio perhaps 4% - 5%, not bad considering I have been trying to keep BTC at 1%...

Please don't tell me you're sticking with 1% allocation because you heard that on CNBC and in the MSM.
There is a reason they are telling the public that, and it isn't for the publics' protection.
Hint: the wealthy elites aren't just allocating 1%.
