GM #nostr, thinking through how our existence could probably be defined by the word “overextension”. By overextension I mean we stretch things past their natural capacity. We’ve overextend: Money Government Food Environment Schools Communities Purpose Humanity Fitness Entertainment Family Business Am I advocating for degrowth? I guess I kind of am, centralisation is the scourge of humanity. It’s ironic that my favourite show, Star Trek: TNG, shows a future of almost perfect bureaucratic bliss. If such a thing was possible it would be great. "I feel I need a holiday, a very long holiday, as I have told you before…Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: Like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. That can’t be right. I need a change, or something.” - Fellowship of the Ring

It’s wet and miserable outside but putting this on an imagining myself in the warmer climates of the US

GM #nostr Had a really valuable call with a brother in the US yesterday. He reminded me that we need that challenge he called “the rock in the stream”. Something that’s hard but if we stick at it shapes us. Sometimes we feel like we aren’t moving forward like that rock, but we’re still being shaped by the stream. Keep the faith, don’t let the system define what you should be. Realise your God given image 🫡

No one ever got fat from eating fruit

Having fun with npub.pro and creating a site to document our journey to self sufficiency. Any notes with # proofofharvest (deliberately broke the hashtag) get added there. proofofharvest.npub.pro

"NHS soup and shake diet can beat type 2 diabetes" Or you could just eat as our ancestors did. Cut out the processed rubbish and eat meat, fish, fruits, nuts, seeds, dairy, vegetables.

Anybody else get a headache at the back of the head on Saturday mornings? Suffered with them for so many years that me and my wife refer to them as my “weekend headache”

Gm #nostr #puravida It’s the weekend after a long week. Hoping to hit the farmers market to get some grass fed beef this morning. Whatever you’re doing today have a good one 👍

It’s potato day! First of our 3 grow bags, 1.75kg. A lot have blister skin so will take that into account with watering the next batch #proofofharvest #gardening

Anyone read The Uncommunist Manifesto? Currently half way through #bookstr #reading
