Dreaming of a front porch fit enough for banjo plucking. Specializing in forestry and agriculture for over a decade.

Government websites are the biggest gaslight on the American population. They are poorly maintained repositories of ever shifting regulations and programs.

I'm surprised you got as far as you did.

Accept e-cash, fuck the federal reserve.

we mint our own peer to peer digital cash.

Unspent good morning output.

E-cash mints will be direct attacked by the Federal government. You can bet your ass they will be.

Today's events shine a light on how far these fucks are willing to go to "do their job".

A meal, a succulent Chinese meal.

Thank God we have e-cash and fedimints hitting the tape right now.

If you figure out a way to leverage one system for the benefit of another while both systems simultaneously benefit that is a mutualistic relationship. Even if the thing we are leveraging is doomed to fail, it's failure shouldn't be the outcome we're focused on - it's the birth and growth of the new we should prioritize.

some of the shit I've seen come out of the federal government in the past 2 years has been mind boggling.

if there's any institution that needs a good firm rug pull, it's the US government.

billions of dollars have funneled into conservation over the past year. many people in Washington DC are pushing and advocating for climate smart practices, and want to move towards perennial agriculture.

there's a fundamental flaw though, central planning.

I've had front row seats to these efforts and I've seen how ill prepared not only the government is to deal with this funneling of money, but the people who are implementing these projects.

Farmers and ranchers are good, honest people who are often 4th or 5th generation people on the land. They're dealing with inflation of their purchasing power, not at the rate consumers are - but almost double the rate. When inflation spiked, producers were hit extremely hard. This forced many to heighten their already high time preference.

perennial agriculture and resilient food systems take a long time to establish. once the trains going though, look out, because their abundance is uncanny. hundreds of thousands of calories can be produced on a single acre with stackable functions. it's the same thing we see in nature, but under human management.

these government programs are largely a giant failure, with some small victories and stories of people who have been able to get their resilient low time preference food systems off the ground. my hope is that Bitcoin incentivizes more of these low time preference growing decisions, because we need a transition - #bitcoin for every farm

daily reminder: people bring baggage into Bitcoin.

everyone's baggage contains different things, ideas, experiences etc.

I got that same thing, have to sign for a package.

just going to tape a note to my door saying I'll pick it up at their office.

Bitcoiners are a cabal of people hell bent on fixing the money.

it's a cabal anyone can join.

Bitcoin maximalism is familial maximalism.

shitcoins rot culture.
