Excellent... I keep hearing it's turning purple from all the Californians that have soiled their bed and moved their politics there. I'm hopeful the country has reached peak woke and is ready for healing.
Life is good.
Having unwavering conviction separates the strong from the weak.
Spring is the season of life.
The sun is a warm doctor giving you free medicine.
Joy to the world.
I have witnessed this... but to be clear, most normal children are not "normal" and when they become teenager they are pliable blobs of hormones... and if you are motivated to sculp them into a rainbow you can.
Its amazing how "suicidal" people become when they are in a position to expose child trafficking... the darkest of the dark appears to lurk in the shadows.
In Czechia it's a national and very old custom to serve bread and salt to visitors. It's a lovely symbol of staying humble and being served it on first Nostr meetup is simply beautiful. nostr:nprofile1qqsxn4xueqcl3u7xwry9yu30pqwkdvzad3q5v3jtgv20a9nr7250uqcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj7qgjwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxcafwddjj7wwn6g7 won the internets of the day.
That is wonderful. In today's world, when someone takes the time to make a beautiful loaf of bread and then share it with me... I just love that feeling. That is a great Czech tradition.
I have familymembers in the same boat. They know the "unsinkable" ship has hit an iceberg and is taking on water, but hoping to ride it out in the safety of the bar with the live musicians.
Fiat has helped to create soft people... complacent and too comfortable in their privilege. Unlike in past times, the number of Americans willing to sell it all, uproot their families, and head via "wagon" to a better place are few... about as few as there are bitcoin.
Nostr meetup in Prague. We were served bread. A fresh made ostrich bread made by nostr:nprofile1qqsxn4xueqcl3u7xwry9yu30pqwkdvzad3q5v3jtgv20a9nr7250uqcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj7qgjwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxcafwddjj7wwn6g7 . How hipster can this turn😆😀 #praguestr #grownostr #foodstr 
Beautiful... breaking bread together is a wonderful thing!
I'm happy for you and your family... Sounds like an oasis in a country full of weak and easily controlled NPCs. I hope for everyone's sake that Texas remains a red state. Enjoy the weekend!!
I wish I shared your optimism. I frequent a blue city that still has a significant number of people that still wear masks. I want to think people would respond more defiantly if the state attempted this again. I think at some point we will see.
Yes, which is also why the public health response to covid was a disaster... same pharma leaning involved.
Dreams of baby duck for dessert.
Sometimes it's hard being the sane one in a crazy world... but there are still plenty of who remember better times when crazy wasn't the norm.
As a parent of a high functioning autistic child who has started college, what RFK has to say about autism is profoundly important. Too many children and families have been wrecked by it. Mine is one of the fortunate 30% who can still get on with life.
As an educator, I get to meet the MANY families of low functioning kids who have little hope.
And don't tell me that studies show no connection to vaccines. This is a lie. The safety data is obscured and very under-evaluated and almost none of the vaccine ingredients have even been studied.

What boggles the mind is the shrug of the shoulders from those managing public health when they are presented with the huge increase in the autistic numbers... then after parroting "correlation does not prove causality" they show no curiosity to discover what is causing it.
I love that someone has mentioned this vid in a post this past week, but it wasn't present in the post... then I stumble upon this searching #tunestr... love it!

The Metallica rif in the background is the cherry on top.
Life hacks... I think we all have them. The financial hacks are the best. This one was so good my friend never shared it outside of family, but the secret eventually got out and I think the gig is up. But, since it was so good, I will pass it on in case it hasn't been shut down in your neck of the woods.
Most grocery stores now have "member cards", that are tied to a phone number, that earn points and can be redeemed at gas stations for discounts of up to a $1/gallon. For years now my friend has been using phone numbers that millions of people use in the stores to get the coupon price, and then used the rewards when pumping gas to get up to $25 off per tank fill.
Someone had originally posted that the number 420-420-4200 was being used by all the stoners to buy munchies. Well, all those munchies amounted to a lot of gas discounts. Eventually that number was shut down, but other common numbers worked. Anyway it was a great life hack while it lasted.
For you to give this a try in your area, go to a gas station that allows grocery store rewards, and you can type in the phone number at the pump. If your area code starts with 603, try typing in the number 603-603-6033, and see if it gives you $1 off/gal.
If you have any life hacks to share, please post them here... stay humble and stack sats is a given.
