GM Nostr. There were a couple npubs in a @HODL thread talking about the annoyance of carrying a gun in the summer time heat. This Vlog is a quick show of what I think is the best way to dress for the weather while keeping your gun on you where it belongs. Don’t be another statistic, stay safe.

Wife processed 12 pounds of strawberries, organic cane sugar and lemon for citric acid into jam. Based on the kids' current PB&J intake this should buy us 3 weeks supply or so 😂

GM Nostr. A little proof of work ASMR. I worry at times that Nostr doesn’t have enough interesting content but then I recall that I didn’t contribute anything new so why am I surprised? Post what you want to see more of, who else will? Or just bitch about on chain zaps, up to you.

Hey Nostr. I've been channeling @npub1546j...f9mt lately and his recent video about a 10 year sovereign plan really hit home with me. So, I'm attempting to do my part to help the next generation. There is a new crop of young folks getting ready to enter their adult life. When I was in their shoes, I was met with advice that quickly became toxic. Go to college, borrow money, work a desk job, save in a 401k, and finally hope that it all works out. All of this while our money is getting weaker, expenses are getting higher and no one has a clear answer as to why. Instead, I would like to give the answers to those problems that many of us here are already well aware of. Reason being is this cohort will not find them in the mainstream world. They will be given the same bad advice, that will not lead them to a life of abundance. It is my belief that a young person could still start out and work over time to a point where they have full control over their finances, health, and ultimately their freedom. Please share this video if you feel obliged. My goal is to have more young folks on the path to sovereignty for the sake of their own benefit. More folks choosing Bitcoin over fiat. More folks backing up their own data over being harvested in the cloud. More folks building with Private AI. More folks limiting their surveillance through Apple, and using Graphene. More folks ensuring their free speech with NOSTR, instead of being censored. There are more tools available to be sovereign today then when I was on the same path over 10 years ago. If they can begin using them on day 1 and not fall prey to conventional wisdom, I believe we can change lives. Thanks

I wrote this irresponsibly fast with my Clanker this afternoon. Borderline AI slop, but the message is very true. I've been wanting to write and create content for young men to help attract their attention away from nonsense, and into truth. This is a foray into that. It's not perfect, but if I never start, I'll never get anywhere or improve. Massive assumptions being made. However, I feel that this information would have had the power to change my life at a younger age. I'm making up for that now. My hope is that perhaps it will change someone else's life for the better. Please critique and share. View article →

Anybody know if @Start9 servers are impacted by the Linux Copy Fail bug?

Something smells off, and it's not the seafood.

Important lessons being learned. We choose to not ignore the fact that evil exists. The best solution is not to hide from it, but confront it with strength and virtue. Instead of trying to keep the next generation in a utopia where they trade personal responsibility for false security promised by the state, perhaps arming them for a future where they can protect themselves should be considered. Being weak and saying you stand for non-violence is hypocritical because you do not even have the capability to be violent at all. Being strong, capable of violence but choosing to remain peaceful is true virtue.

On the deck tucked under a blanket and the moon, getting started on another book. Thanks @Sourcenode for the reminder that I've been wanting to read this one.

Peak life experience is when the kids are restless and it turns into the most epic and spontaneous dodgeball fight. My boys usually take Mom's side so its always 3 v 1. Since I get outnumbered I throw the balls as hard as I can with no remorse. I love hearing the fear and squeals as dodgeballs whiz by them and slam the wall. So many laughs and close calls. Great way to wind down before bed time!

GM. I just had a minor personal epiphany this morning, help me think through it anon. I have spent some time recently reviewing the past decade of my life to see how the choices I've made have led me to where I am today, specifically with my career and finances. What I realized is that beginning to stack Bitcoin was the most significant and pivotal point in this era of my life. Not because NGU, but for another reason entirely. Pre-BTC I was simply trading my time for fake promises. Some people call this "work". However, until I was actually taking my energy and effort, then converting that into something backed by proof of work, then and only then was I for the first time working. Hear me out here. You can spend time working physically hard, but so long as you are doing that for a promise that another man can print, the value of that work is meaningless and null to you. The only way you can preserve your work and value over time, is BTC, we all know this. So, when I look at my past working life as a young man, I don't call it work or a job. I would refer to it as a period where I traded my valuable time for something that would eventually hold no value. This sounds like servitude to a degree when you think about it. The first time I began working was when I began holding small incremental amounts of Bitcoin, which is enforced by proof of work. To put it in a shoddy illustration, think about the Notre Dame Cathedral, or any other of that era. It took nearly 200 years to build. Imagine if the men working on it were given sand to form the stones by hand, and every time they made a completed of blocks, as soon as it rained, they were washed away. This is the fiat equivalent of building Notre Dame. Now consider how the men who built the cathedral were bounded by nature and proof of work. They used limestone that was verifiably proven by nature to last centuries, and these materials could only be harnessed and deployed through true effort. That is what saving in Bitcoin is equivalent to. So the men building with sand, were "working" but the value was toiling away. The men building with stone were WORKING and that value was preserved for centuries. I admit I was a fiat normie and wasted nearly a decade of my life trading valuable time for nothing. Who else would recognize that, admit it and move on to sound money? Those who are humble enough to study and understand Bitcoin. Bitcoin may just be the ultimate ego test.
