Leather crafting ideas:
A belt sheath for a pair of Falco pruning shears. IMO the best succateers you can get.
A holster for a can of bear spray or dog spray
A belt pouch for 12ga shot shells
A braided leather bull whip
A leg sheath for an all purpose bushcraft knife
A holster for a bear banger launcher or pistol with slots for extra bangers
The documentary on this feat is really good.
Baumgartner, in addition to training for maximum physical fitness, also had to enlist the services of counsellors to help overcome the fear and claustrophobia that wearing a space suit and riding the cramped life support capsule to altitude for hours induced. Passing through altitudes with such low atmospheric pressure that one’s blood will boil at body temperature, Felix had to come to terms with the inescapability from the capsule during the ascent to altitude, knowing that any failure of the experimental prototype’s envelope would result in a horrifying, painful death if it happened before he donned his helmet and pressurized his suit prior to exit. He could not use up the suit’s onboard oxygen carrying capacity for anything but the time immediately before exit and during the freefall. So there was a time where his only protection from boiling to death and exploding was the capsule itself.
The whole story is a great tale of human ingenuity and courage. An elderly Joe Kittinger, the last man to set the altitude and speed record for human freefall in the 1960’s, was a mentor to Baumgartner throughout the project, and was on hand on the day of the attempt.
As a former skydiver, I remember where I was this day like I remember where I was the days of the Challenger shuttle disaster, 9/11, and the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope. Historic. 🤙🏽
And the best gunfight of all time in downtown LA. That one scene of Val Kilmer ripping 20 rounds at the officers down the street, spinning 180, and sending lead towards the ones trailing them. First saw it in the theatre and it was deafening.
Come and get em you fucking city slicker.
Fack! Definitely not as easy as they make digging a grave look in the movies. Sure would be nice to have a mini hoe and a spotter.
It somehow helps circumvent the Canadian App Store version limitation on Damus that previously eliminated my zap ability with the app. I’m not sure if it’s still limited in this way. But one of the other respondents to this thread provided a link.
I read a story about a guy who was dealing with one such tree while his kids were standing in the root zone, unbeknownst to him. Finished cutting, couldn’t find his kids and realized to his horror that they were crushed underneath the stump and root flare.
Yeah it’s fucked I just bought two new Cold Cards which are getting shipped from Canada but charged in US funds and my bill with shipping was $567CAD.
And now because of the postage strike (which started two days after I placed my order) my hardware is sitting in a Canada Post terminal in Toronto with no end in sight. This country used to be something to be proud of.
Damus with the zap zap zap script running. And an Alby Hub node.
I’ll need a friend to help me with my dual patellar dislocations if I try sitting like that. Lol.

Another professional student turned think tank analyst that has produced zero value to society. This episode likely went further to put Joe’s listeners off of Bitcoin trail temporarily than any other. I particularly like how Zeihan tries to sound so authoritative about topics he hasn’t even studied.
His lack of aging could maybe be attributed to not wasting the last 11 years of his life stressed about money, working ungodly and often sedentary hours, skipping workouts as a result, getting shitty sleep and spending his days building someone else’s empire, surrounded by fucking retards.
Or it could be edited.
From my Spotify “2024 Wrapped”. Just shy of 1000 hours of Preparedness, Permaculture, Bitcoin and Decentralized Tech discussions and content on one platform. Mostly listened while gardening, hiking, hunting, splitting wood doing chores and driving around on work estimates.
I wish I had a similar tally for Fountain. My top 5 pods would be ordered differently if Fountain listening for V4V were added. The Survival Podcast and Bitcoin And would be tied for #1 now. I really only started getting into Fountain and listening to my faves from Spotify in Fountain instead in September. Musically, the clear leader was Parkway Drive. These guys rock.
My Fav audiobooks were Broken Money and The Fiat Standard, also listened to these on Spotify.
2025 is going to be more heavily weighted to V4V. Spotify is getting a little too fat and sassy with their rate increases. And they don’t share enough with the artists/creators. Might ditch it.
