Get those adaptogens

Corporate media: "Can potentially expose people to bird flu"

Me: k, how many times has that happened?

CM: well, it's never been documented, but.........

The fumes burning off look and behave different than a campfire/fireplace combustion. Looks really cool.

I cut a 55 gallon barrel in half and just do an open burn rather than a kiln. I start with a small fire and keep adding material whenever the top of the burn gets ashy. It's easy to quench when it's done because the barrel I used had its bungs sealed, so both halves hold water.

I think the cone shape would work better because I usually have some wood around the bottom edges that doesn't fully pyrolize. But it's easy enough to separate that and add it to the next burn.

I bought bitcoin for the first time after several months on Nostr. Jack Spirko sent me.

I made the mistake of listening to music I was part of creating. It's a recipe for an earworm to listen back to something you tracked who knows how many takes of vocals for. https://youtu.be/kOetVuO_P1Y

Lyrics:

Can someone save me from the pit

This grave I dug myself is filling in

I built up my walls, created the divide

But now they're caving in I'm trapped inside

Now I see the lies that I have believed

Promises of life and fame and fulfillment and self

A sweet sweet pill with a bitter end

Lay me down inside my grave

I know I'm broken can I be remade

Lay me down underneath the ground

I know I'm lost can I ever be found

I'm screaming for help can no one hear the sound

I've spent so long chasing empty dreams, but still you stood there calling me

I pursued the shining gold, the wine so red, the bandit, the harlots, the faithless friend

Beaten and abused and left for dead

I had no hope until you took me in

My self-inflicted wounds you began to heal

You filled the emptiness and took away the pain I used to feel

Why did I take so long

What was I hiding from

I will never go back

Never go back, not going back

Lay me down inside my grave

I know I'm broken can I be remade

Lay me down underneath the ground

I know I'm lost can I ever be found

I've been like a withered tree growing in the dry bed of a desert stream

I sunk my roots into an anchor of sand, but the rain stopped coming to this barren land

I wandered from the path, was lost in the weeds - but you never abandoned me

Dig, dig, dig til I'm 6 feet down in the deep - still you never abandoned me

I will never go back

Never go back, not going back

You saved me from the pit

This grave I dug myself, you filled it in

The life I lived is buried there

I'll never go back, not going back

I'll never go back, not going back
