#Batstr 🦇

We’ve all had the experience of opening that steak we’ve been putting off eating, because life, to the intense stench of frustration.

Protip: In your fridge, a steak on a rack exposed to air will last much longer than in a vac bag.

You might have 5 days in a bag.

But easily 10-15 on a rack - and after that it’s probably not going bad - just drying out more than is ideal.

Many of the things that go wrong with meat happen in the absence of air. (i.e.- in the bag)

Namely rot.

The way a conventional fridge cools makes it double as a dehumidifier/dehydrator - which red meat loves.

Make sure your rack is stainless steel and not coated metal, which can rust.

Lastly, and I think this is important, you WILL know if raw red meat is not good/safe to eat.

It will be visibly off- often green-ish. It will be slimy and, most importantly, your nose will tell your brain “FUCK NO!” in a primal way. (Exceptions to this would be game meats that might have parasites.)

Slightly turning brown is normal with oxygen exposure.

Food poisoning mostly sneaks in undetectably in prepared foods that haven’t been handled properly.

This is not investment advice.

My parents are up more than 5x on their Bitcoin.

They got a lot of crap from their financial advisor when they bought back in 2020.

My dad is a doctor, this is the best investment he’s ever had. My mom would clap back over the years to their financial advisor.

This is better than Bitcoin being up for me, the fact that my parents are nearing retirement with their stack of Bitcoin is incredible.

I haven’t been here much but something nuked my follows.. again.

What is going on? What’s the best way to recover it?

I wonder who was the bigger freak, Hagrids’ dad or his mom?

Ah, I get it... who hasn't experienced this feeling?!

Every now and then I feel the need to go somewhere distant and quiet, where I can realign my thoughts, recharge my energy, and reconnect with good vibes.

Take a deep breath and take it easy. It’ll be okay 🫂💜

oh just posting about a life of making loud music

Oh, no! What happened?

it does that

Every morning I start by taking a cold shower and then going outside to do some chi stretches while barefoot, watching the sunrise. I've been doing this for around 3 years straight now, and the natural energy I get from this routine is why I don't drink coffee (and honestly, I've never actually purchased coffee in my entire life lol).

The importance of grounding goes beyond just feeling good - when you make direct contact with the earth barefoot, your body absorbs free electrons that help reduce inflammation and normalize stress hormones like cortisol.

This natural electrical connection literally joins your conductive body with the earth's global electrical circuit, which research shows can improve sleep, reduce pain, and boost mood.

But the sunrise piece is equally important. The morning light - especially the red light at sunrise that comes without harmful UV - resets your circadian rhythm through your retinal pathways. This sunrise light essentially charges the water in your body, creating the biological battery that powers your day. It's giving your hormones the correct signal to start their daily cascade in perfect timing.

After three years of this practice, I can tell you the difference is very noticable.

Those first 10-30 minutes outside barefoot, absorbing both the earth's electrons and the sun's morning light, sets me up with sustained energy that feels completely different from any artificial stimulant. It's your body working exactly as it evolved to - connected to the natural electrical and light signals that regulate everything from your sleep cycle to your energy production.

And, it's completely free and available to everyone. Just step outside, take your shoes off, and let nature do what it does best. Ditch the $9 morning coffee at starbucks.

Thanks so much! Always grateful to hear that people enjoying using something I built 🙏

I’m not so sure about my recent haircut.

I was asked tips on how to market on Nostr and I said:

"just show up and be you"

I thought I might sit down and write out a few paragraphs about this. What do you think, any input?

-

Is it possible to choose not to judge yourself when you’re wallowing in self-pity or self-deprecation mode and you’re putting yourself down and beating yourself up? It would seem difficult at that time to stop doing that, but looking back at myself as a person who wants to do that these days, if I’ve done something wrong in the past and my subconscious bubbles it up into consciousness, I acknowledge it. I consider it and then I tell myself, while I might have been an asshole or an idiot back then, I’m not being that person anymore, so I don’t need to torture myself for my past mistakes anymore.

why did soap operas have a taste, maybe it’s just me

I've updated LND, LiTD, Electrs, and Alby Hub this morning on my node. Is your stack up to date anon?

I still think about how one of the very first academic papers ever written about bitcoin predicted it would fail because there’s no incentives to run a node and thus no one would and then transactions wouldn’t relay.

Yep I realised that. Sats earned regardless of the interface

👀

what would happen if a man ate only soy?

Changed the hummingbird feeder. Now obsessively observing the feeder for validation.

Bitcoin isn't pumping, it's just very undervalued and is catching up

I went 48 hours without checking the price of bitcoin.. I'm tempted to check now, but I'll probably just be disappointed.

My entire feed right now. 🤣

This is creepy even for fiat standards.

You know you’re a Bitcoiner when you’re doing pretty well in life but your bank account still looks like this lol 😂

We used to have one and they shut it down because it wasn’t profitable.

Dude absolutely 💯 so when I started with nostr I realized more and more that it's about the connection and engagement. Unlike X which is pure nonsense and a waste of time.

“This is the kind of spontaneous publicity, your name in print, that MAKES people. Things are going to start happening to me now.”

Turns out that there are many paths! I had to do a ton of research before I took the leap. I’ll keep going. I’m obsessed now.
