This weekend my home town is host to one of the largest 🏳️‍🌈 Pride events in the world, people flock here to celebrate the diversity and inclusion we are blessed with in our local communities. Brighton has it's problems but I fucking love living in a place where freedom of expression is not only tollerated but celebrated. It's probably the friendliest place I've had the pleasure to live. Certainly in the UK. Being home to one of the largest LGBTQ communities here it's really not an unnusual experience for me to see trans men and women on the street, or to see gay and lesbian couples holding hands or embracing. It's a normal part of life. "Normal" people doing normal things, going about their lives, and not bothering me in any way while they do it. I don't come on socials much but increasingly when I do my feeds are littered with hate towards trans people - it's unnatural, they want to mutilate your children, corrupt your minds, burn civilisation and all that is good to the ground. Please! It's like me feed is constantly telling me that my neighbours are my enemies. I refuse to accept that. I don't really care all that much to go in to the science or philosophy of what is and isn't a man or a woman because while they might be interesting topics it's always more important to me to accept people as unique individuals and to interface with them as such. People are interesting and diversity is the spice of life. All I can really wish for others is that they find the freedom and strength to fully express their own uniqueness. 💜

gd afternoon! It's never too late for coffee if you go by Moscow Time! Not any more. Morning is coming! I had an old pi 3b and 20x4 LCD kicking around without a current use case so I decided to make a bitcoin ticker/block clock thing with them. It's mostly been built to connect to my local instance of Bitcoin Explorer but it can also connect to a Mempool instance or directly to a BTC Core node (not many data screens available yet for those last 2 options though) For Bitcoin Explorer it can currently display fiat exchange rates (gbp, usd, eur) and sats to fiat with an option for Moscow time, market cap, next halving details/countdown, latest block details, and current supply. #coffeechain #moscowtime #raspberrypi

Wasn't that fun! Gm, and welcome to Bitcoin's 5th epoch! Anyway, let's get back at it: tick-tock next block; stay humble, stack sats; and, LFG! 🙏

GM ☕️ There's points in my life that I don't know how I would've gotten through without the medicine of good music. This is one of those performances that never fails to lift my spirits and bring a smile to my face. Have a fantastic day 🙏 #coffeechain #reggae #vibes

Wow! Finally getting around to checking out noStrudle! 👌🔥 Great experience on Android so far. Seemed to be working pretty well in Brave with Amber, but I had some issues signing certain events (but I'm sure that will improve as Amber matures). So now I'm using Kiwi Browser with nos2x extension and is pretty seemless so far. Love the UI. Love all the features. Well done to everyone that's been working on this. 👏

GM ☕️ Let's get at it!

FYI This never got resolved! I got 1 email response from a support staff after posting the below back in November but then all further messages were again ignored. I have no idea what i did wrong to deserve this 🤷‍♂️ I simply didn't and don't have time to keep trying to get a response so payments to join the relay are disabled, and i guess @ZBD just gets to keep whatever few sats were left in the account. I'm leaving the relay up for now so that any members can continue to use it. No guarantees on how many months that will go on for though. Pura Vida 🙏
