White Camas is starting to bloom in our area in Southern Oregon right now.

Happy Resurrection Day! He is Risen! Matthew 28:5-7 But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you.”

Yesterday on the Oregon Coast. Yesterday a pair of bald eagles were hunting seabirds out on this rocky point.

The Bitkey is impressive! @jack @Michael Rihani⚡️

Mt Thielsen, also known as the lightning rod of the Cascades. at the very tip, it’s been struck by lightning so many times the rock has turned to smooth glass. It’s amazing up there. #nature

My boys and I went up to Crater Lake National Park yesterday to build a snow bunker with rooms and we cooked flatbread down in it. It was a lot of fun.

My bitcoin Bread issue arrived from @CashApp. Very well done!

Fascinating article on what really caused the baby boom and subsequent bust that we are now seeing.

The Baby Boom

Lessons and Patterns

This post talks about how Malthusianism is at the root of so many issues our society is facing right now like housing and childcare, etc..

Outdated Malthusian intuitions cripple our politics

More people and more houses for them is good

Nature is so refreshing.

The impact that bad inflation has on a country and their people. View quoted note →

It takes life energy to pay off debts. A country that just continually gets in more debt and doesn’t even try to live within its means is a country that is ok with stealing the life of future generations to pay their debts for them. Why don’t politicians balance the budget? They are cowards that don’t care about the future generations. They only care about getting re-elected. We have somewhere between 12 and 15 years before all Social Security money is gone. The debt payments in a decade are going to be so massive, they will swallow up all entitlement spending at which point there will be no money to pay for entitlements unless entitlements are slashed massively or taxes are raised massively. Oh, and things in our culture are so unhealthy that birthrates are plummeting because people don’t want to have kids in this environment. That will make things much worse.  Either way crushing times ahead unless our country and its leaders humble themselves and try to start paying down their debts now. The alternative is hard default and loss of faith in our currency or hyperinflation. These are both worst case scenarios, and max pain and at the moment we are headed towards one of these being reality.  Sidenote, the theory which says there are no consequences for endless money printing has thoroughly been debunked as we have seen the last couple years. There are massive consequences to printing money, and that road leads to hyperinflation. Want proof? Powell is literally destroying the American economy right now to try to get inflation down a few percentage points and throwing us into a recession because of it. He ultimately won’t succeed. We will end up with high inflation and a recession. but his desperate efforts should be a signal to how serious bad inflation is.  This is one of the most serious issues we will face in our lifetime and something in which you should use to judge the qualification of a leader. If they are not talking about this, they are not a serious politician.  Everything else is like a little tiny wave approaching us while a massive tsunami several miles out is also heading towards us, but not being talked about. 

The beauty of Oregon in the spring.

He is risen! 🙏

The United States is behaving like a drug addict that doesn’t focus on taking care of its own health, but rather continually sabotages itself, leaving us dependent upon some convoluted world order that will never exist again. Be concerned if you don’t see significant progress towards health in the United States soon, because without it, we will undoubtedly turn to war as our solution. Mark my words.
