Another Monday, back to the FIAT grind. Wishing you all a great week! For those in the same situation, may it be another stone laid in the path to financial freedom. #stayontarget #stacksats

Anyway... Here's a couple shots of this springs garden! Bonus dog!

I'd like to post more and engage more on Nostr. I believe in this technology, in bitcoin and a bright future possible through this and open-source computing. Problem is I've never really been a social media guy. I've become a lurker these last few months. Hoping to change that. I see my future benefiting from leveraging this technology more and I get such a mental boost from all the positive, solutions focused and responsible chatter on here

Bought more bitcoin today

Good morning Nostr! Got the best of surprises from the wife today! We are expecting our second child. I am so proud and so excited! Feeling blessed!

GM Nostr. Last full day in Greece. Its been a real treat! Been here for almost two weeks watching the little one, supporting my wife while she attends an intensive Shaolin Retreat here. Lots of dad and daughter time. Time well spent.

Question for #canadians in the space. Anyone aware of solutions currently available to use #bitcoin as a debit at vendors who only normally accept cash, debit or credit? I'm not looking for vendors that accept bitcoin directly but rather services that will convert my bitcoin to CAD so in their view it's just a regular debit transaction in CAD FIAT. #arewethereyet? I'm aware of bitcoin exchange that allow for gift card purchases, and bill payments. I'm looking for everyday use solutions, like to buy a coffee for example. Thanks! #asknostr

Drink water. Breathe. Take good care of your temple (body)!

Thank you for all the warm welcomes and zaps on the introduction! Truly feels different here.

Well its about time I do my formal Nostr #introductions ... I like it here. Its beaming with optimism, hope, strong values and a general vibe of genuine excitement! Such a breathe of fresh air. I haven't had any form of social media for years. Over the years I started to despise it. Too many idiots, too many controlled narratives, Orwellian censorship, and optics/lies spun by state and corporate backed sponsors... Big tech, big pharma, big government and big lies. It was just depressing... I grew sick of the doom and gloom the algorithm would feed you, the ethos of the mob and the lack of like minded folk. I had to leave due to the inverted, upside down world promoted on their as "the norm". Now, I'm excited about technology and computing again for the first time in over 7 years because of decentralised technologies like #bitcoin and nostr. I've taken privacy into my own hands over the years. I'm running a degoogled phone (e/OS/), haven't had a Twitter account in over 5 years and a Facebook account in even longer. I never tried other social media platforms. Last year, I finally made my life 100% free of google (okay, I still have a YouTube account if I'm honest! But its isolated on an account with zero personal info) and looking to divorce myself from Microsoft and windows very soon as a next big goal for controlling my online identity and data. Obviously I'm a bitcoiner! My career up to this point has been in Game Development with a background in computer science. I am now an aspiring homesteader. Self sufficiency, community and a nexus of clean food, #beef, water and a pristine piece of wild nature for my children to learn and grow from within is what I am striving for. I am a proud father and happily married to an incredible wife. I live on the beautiful west coast of #canada. Some people say covid broke my brain. Fuck'em, I was on this path in life long before that horrible catastrophe on the human mind, soul and heart took place. I want to leave behind a legacy for my family in the form of honest labour invested into the land. So that no matter what, my family has a refuge to feel safe and call home. A haven of abundance! I want to pass on knowing my children had the most freedom I could award them through their own nurtured self worth, skills and education. I believe in freedom through responsibility, honesty, loyalty, freedom of expression, a right to privacy and a strong importance of morals rooted in family, lineage and community. I first entered into the world of bitcoin in 2020 and have continued to #stacksats since! More importantly I'm most excited about continuing the journey here on Nostr as I learn more about the protocol and its underlying technology. Luck comes from working hard and showing up. My success in life is a testament to that as someone who started from nothing. On a more light hearted note. I love #hockey, #camping, a good comedy and I'm an aspiring #hunter. I look forward to connecting as I sharing my journey, experience, knowledge and self sufficient accomplishments here on Nostr as content. Praise the earthly Mother, honour thy holy Father. Big thanks to @Jor host over at 88satsradio for turning me on to Nostr. Its been quite a refreshing, uplifting ride thus far.
