Found some old pictures of the first paid gig I got, playing in a van halen cover band. Each of us got $300 back in 2006 for playing at a local festival event. I was convinced at that moment that we were going to be famous (we did make top 100 in canada one time 🤣) I'd end up playing with 7 other bands for the next 5 years before going to university and leaving that life behind me. I'm glad I did, that kid was an idiot. #tunestr #grownostr

This is big news for the company I do contract dev work for. The last time this passed with bipartisan zeal, we were basically told to comply, build backdoor access, or else we would face consequences.

Next step, sue the media for billions for slander and defamation. #freeross

All you guys taking pictures of shoes on your head, why is this a thing? Also, y'all are confirming my suspicions that we are all just a bunch of old people circle zapping each other.

GM I had a random dream that I was talking to Trump about Ross and how he was going to avoid looking at the case the first week. Pretty sure I convinced him otherwise. You're welcome Ross.

We moved my sister-in-law and niece out of our house over the weekend. My wife was so worried that, left to her own devices, her sister would burn her appartment down as she had almost done to my house on numerous occasions...so I was commissioned to install a security camera in her kitchen, facing the oven. Upon walking in, there was smoke everywhere as she had forgotten her pizza in the oven. Not even 24 hour in and she had her first almost fire.

There is a lot of unexplored opportunity in building businesses that provide services that a butler would typically take care of. I think this year, in addition to focusing more on my web design business, I'm going to build out a few concierge styled ideas I think could fill a need people don't realize is a need/ pain point.

I showed my wife #Olas, and she seemed pretty excited about it. She seems to have misplaced her nsec so she might need to create another npub lol.

Ok...OOOK @PABLOF7z I just got around to checking out Olas and... it's Flippin beautiful This will totally get @Janelle back on here 👀

Cops showed up at my door asking for "John Forest". My wife calmly said nobody by that name lives here, closes the door, and immediately asks me, "John Forest isn't one of your aliases by chance is it?" 🤣🤣 #nostr

GM 🤙 This weekend, we are finally moving my wifes sister and our niece out of our house. For 3 years now, we have housed them in our already very tight living quarters. I've been looking forward to this moment for a very long time 😂

I was given a laptop from 2008 and wanted to see realistically what it could produce as a miner with xmrig. 0.11 H/s 🤣🤣🤣 Just over here protecting the blockchain yall.

It's been a while since I've played chess, and I downloaded Lichess cause I saw someone mention it here on nostr as a an open source alt to chess.com. I started a game with what I thought was a computer, turned out it wasn't. Also turned out that I'm so bad that my opponent left the game before he inevitably won. So I deleted the game out of embarassment.

Rough day. Straight up not having a good time.

We have a system down at work and at the same time, my oldest might have just broken his foot. Happy Monday #nostr
