Read books. Be kind. Stay weird.

In the End

You were a part of the sky on loan to a body.

A part of the sea that awoke to thought.

A part of the Earth who borrowed a name.

The essential piece of you that lingers is the love and knowledge that

you set in motion while you moved through the waking world.

You are nature and nature will go on,

but there is a kindness that only you can choose to bring to the world.

~Field Guide to the Haunted Forest

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn the more places you'll go."

- Dr. Seuss

“The interest of [businessmen] is always in some respects different from, and even opposite to, that of the public ... The proposal of any new law or regulation of commerce which comes from this order ... ought never to be adopted, till after having been long and carefully examined ... with the most suspicious attention. It comes from an order of men ... who have generally an interest to deceive and even oppress the public”

― Adam Smith, An Inquiry Into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. Volume 1 of 2

Yes, I did! I cannot zap you back yet though so...

The only other thing that you need to do is make sure you have your lightning address set in your Nostr profile. This is the address where you’ll receive Zaps. I'm leaving for work, in 30 seconds so I won't be around for the next 12 hours, but keep reading guides try #nostr #asknostr #pebchain if you get stuck, there are probably a few guides and youtube videos out there if you do a little internet sleuthing. Good luck!

It's not always about the zaps. You don't even know how much a like/heart, retreat, or positive comment will be the thing that keeps another person going through their day. Be the wind in another ship's sails, the tiny respite in a horrible day.

Imagine that one tiny input from you is the lifeline that a lost, drowning swimmer needs to survive another day. Be kind. Take a moment, if you throw a positive thought to a stranger, what's the worst that could happen.

Positive actions over time change the world. Never stop supporting each other: we are stronger together. Undefeatable.

Home Safety Tip

If you are awoken by a strange sound,

make a stranger sound.

If there's no response,

congratulations.

You are the monster now.

Get out of bed.

You don't need to sleep anymore.

Now, all you need are the shadows

and the endless whispers of dark corners.

My wife is a foraging maniac, she loves finding free food to eat. Mushrooms are so interesting, they play such an essential role in the health and interconnected ecosystem of a forest...

If I lived to be thousands of years old I would barely scratch the surface of all the fantastic things to learn about nature, our planet, the human mind, it's endless!

Need but won't receive, sometimes even if not blind people refuse to see. If the pain tolerance is too low the comfortable lie is less painful.

Most people shy away from pain, and often the truth hurts!

It's hard when people are unfairly critical of our work. You're already thinking smart by not immediately responding with your initial emotional reaction.

If I'm a potential guest and I see an unreasonable negative review I actually become more interested when I see the owner respond politely. If I see a location has only positive 100% scores I automaticly devalue all the positive comments because I assume the negative ones are being censored.

Some people just like to complain, if a future potential customer is turned off by- I couldn't read or follow instructions, and I have no self control towards what I stuff in my face... you probably don't want to deal with them as a customer anyway.

Negative feedback is also a good chance to improve your business practices too. If the information is too long and boring to read maybe you can highlight and shorten the presentation in your communications. I always try to be polite to everyone, but I also assume that everyone is easily distracted or tired or just plain dumb. Some people need more handholding than others.

Don't forget your business is not you. You will never make everyone happy all the time. They are allowed to be disappointed, you can try to reduce the disappointment but it will never be eliminated.

Good luck, keep at it!

For some specific fields, but I suspect a whole portion of the data collection is done via automated processes, so at the very least it would obscure and obfuscate his identity. If they won't delete the data he can take small steps to make it less usable.

Worst case scenario: update all the data fields you're allowed to change into nonsense. Change the address to some political party headquarters - all your linked accounts update the numbers to 123456 or something. Identify as a different gender. Change your birth year to 1776, all that sort of thing.

Their system is built for collecting data... it doesn't have to be the right data!

Going

Only humans believe

there is a word for goodbye

we have one in every language

one of the first words we learn

it is made out of greeting

but they are going away

the raised hand waving

the face the person the place

the animal the day

leaving the word behind

and what it was meant to say

Think of it more as guidelines or suggestions. #grownostr should be more like cooking than baking. You can afford to be a little loosey-goosey with the details, and everyone likes things spiced differently. The main thing is that you're here and you're participating. Skip some days, maybe the true value is a few good posts a week, or a thought a day. Sometimes you can't force it, follow your muse: squeeze water and it squirts away.

Could you maybe can, freeze-dry or dehydrate and sell online? Peppers never grow great in my backyard, I would be personally interested in supporting a fellow Nostronian who could add some fire to my frozen tundra pantry.

“If you keep experiencing the same things, your mind keeps its same patterns. Same inputs, same responses. Your brain, which was once curious and growing, gets fixed into deep habits. Your values and opinions harden and resist change.

You really learn only when you’re surprised. If you’re not surprised, then everything is fitting into your existing thought patterns. So to get smarter, you need to get surprised, think in new ways, and deeply understand different perspectives.

With effort, you could do this from the comfort of home. But the most effective way to shake things up is to move across the world. Pick a place that’s most unlike what you know, and go. This keeps you in a learning mindset. Previously mindless habits, like buying groceries, now keep your mind open, alert, and noticing new things. New arrivals in a culture often notice what the locals don’t. (Fish don’t know they’re in water.)”
