Climbed down to a secluded beach on Costa Brava.

Lake Serene, Washington. Worth the big hike!

😊🤩 For a brief moment I was blessed with this visitor this morning.

Good morning! This is the view from my coffee perch today.

Heh, I inadvertently track the Bitcoin fiat price when I open Primal and it opens to my wallet. Today was, “Oh! Hello!”

When my seeds don’t grow, I agonize for my ancestors who absolutely needed those seeds to spout. I’m grateful that my life doesn’t depend on that dead tray.

Spring is here in the PNW. 🤩

Huh, is there a way for #nostr to do this? Dating apps just want to keep people single, but a decentralized system could do what the participants want.

My son is in engineering school and told me a friend (white male) who is a year ahead of him can’t get any responses for an internship for this coming summer. The guy has a 3.9, leads an engineering club, & had an internship last summer. All the girls have summer internships lined up - of course.

On my perch ready for fiat bucks to break open at 100k Bitcoin.

A favorite place in #Prague.

The greatest cost of the state’s coercion and infestation is that it smothers and destroys the traditions of anarchic order that maintain an orderly society. For example, one of the costs of welfare was the destruction of mutual aid societies and marriages staying together because of social pressures. Mutual aid societies are mostly gone except for some maybe the Amish. Can’t trust what churches do now. They are mostly corrupted by the state which is another cost. The state is acid poured all over long standing anarchic order.

Who is John Galt? Who is Satoshi? We don’t need to know. We need to build. Beauty.

I’ve been amused that Trump has been the gateway for many Americans to first learn about Joe Salatin and glorious good soil. Me not voting for Hilary (or anyone) was the reason my former Joe Salatin inspired friendship from long ago got blocked by my farmer girlfriend. My gf was enraged that I didn’t support Hilary and FB dumped me after Hilary lost. My former GF was into soil but she refused to do foundational thinking about society or the impact of her child abuse that distorts perceptions and one’s ability to be curious and discerning to rise above occult-banker inspired tribalism. Her identity was primarily tied to a synthetic tribe, not shared values and personal bonds. I often post the link to Origins of War in Child Abuse by Lloyd deMause. He’s been criticized for being overwrought but I haven’t seen deep engagement that enables me to see that any critic has awareness of the impact of his own abuse and childhood distortions. Interestingly, my friend who has shown the most interest and traction with deMause is an anarchist Austrian Aspie firmware engineer. He’s been the best collaborator for exploring deMause’s ideas as a foundational issue — the soil of our souls. If anyone got this far, here’s the link. #originsofwarinchildabuse psychohistory.com/books/the-orig…

The thing the socialists don’t comprehend is the biggest capital is in our heads. The lefties and the righties! It’s the same mind/body split. It’s about the exchange of values and you have to connect with others to figure it out.

Every non-consensual association carries an extra opportunity cost. Cooperating is cheaper for everyone! No waste! Because everyone is rowing in the same direction. Coercion bleeds energy from the rowing.

If you don’t keep re-grounding your concepts your abstractions will develop so many errors you will float away. Touch grass!

You can’t compel connection. American can’t be “made” to be a certain way. Americans must be inspired —inspired to work together without any damn coercion. The glory of America is free speech and free association. If you want to mess with us, we have guns.

There are still remnants of the American Spirit in this culture. We are still the bulk of the culture. That spirit is anarchic. The custom and tradition is that we have to respect one another and connect with one another voluntarily. But connection *is* voluntary!!! It can’t be coerced. We are not Europeans! We are free citizens. Americans with American Spirit are built different.

There are many immigrants who don’t respect the anarchic rules that govern American society. It takes very few adherents from an incompatible governance model to create noticeable problems and ruin the anarchic trust system of America.
