Gm nostr, first crop of rhubarb for ginger jam

Marriage is _not_ for the faint of heart.

Getting one of these changed my life. Can’t recommend enough

Not too bad considering outdoor storage all winter #Blackstone

Having a big Easter party?

If you've ever wondered what 25 lbs of chicken drums, thighs and wings in a big bowl of brine looks like, here ya go:

Name things people should avoid in 2025 👇

“There are twenty million Germans too many.”

-French PM Georges Clemenceau, Dec.1918, on keeping the starvation blockade against Germany despite the armistice

I just can’t imagine why the Germans would be spoiling for revenge a generation later. 🤷‍♂️

we reject gatekeepers.

we defy borders, hierarchies, and middlemen.

code is our passport. access is our right.

permissionless technologies defend freedoms.

they scale trust without institutions.

they enable action without approval.

no one asks to speak.

no one begs to build.

no one waits to change.

we build systems that can't be shut down.

we create tools that serve all, not the few.

we write code that liberates, not controls.

this is not just infrastructure.

it’s a revolution—

silent, sovereign, unstoppable.

we don’t ask.

we deploy.

One of the reviews recommended adding a tray of water to even out the temperature throughout the smoker cabinet area. I used that idea but used the brine I'd soaked the chicken in instead of plain water. The smell is phenomenal.

Some of the written reviews for this smoker claimed that the smoker was hard to maintain temp in. I've found it quite easy so far, but I've only had it going about an hour. It's been sitting pretty at about 225.
