Okay yeah I get it but I think the people who you want to read this are not, and those that do (like me) don’t feel this way

GM! ☀️ Here’s another shot looking towards the Matterhorn and Grand Combin from the Dufourspitze west ridge

Nice one Jimmy, welcome to Nostr! Set up your lightning wallet and I’ll zap you some sats ⚡️

Looking back to see fellow mountaineers climbing up the west ridge of Dufourspitze / Monte Rosa 4634m with the mighty Matterhorn in the distance

Why do we say GM?

Nostr represents a radical leap toward a freer, more dynamic internet. With Nostr we get absolute free speech, open competition, and genuine user autonomy.

On Nostr, we control our identities through cryptographic keys, so we can join any community we want without losing our followers, content, or voice.

And because the network relies on many independent “relays” rather than a single central server, there’s no single gatekeeper to censor or deplatform you.

By integrating Bitcoin’s Lightning Network for micropayments, Nostr opens new possibilities for creators and entrepreneurs. Imagine zapping someone a few cents for a clever post or paying directly for valuable insights—no middleman, no hidden fees. It transforms social media into a global marketplace of ideas and services, free from the advertising-driven business models that dominate Big Tech.

Nostr offers a blueprint for disrupting entrenched monopolies in the same way open-source software upended proprietary giants. Instead of complaining about Silicon Valley’s control, we can build a world where users own their data, creators earn directly from their audience, and innovation happens in the open. It’s a rare glimpse of real progress—one that puts individual freedom and entrepreneurial spirit front and center.

We’re witnessing the reemergence of a truly open internet. If you believe that tech should empower people rather than exploit them, Nostr is where you want to be spending your time. Nostr is the most promising and disruptive idea since Bitcoin.

And on Nostr we say GM.

GM! ☀️

How to Talk so Little Kids will Listen.

Great book by Joanna Faber & Julie King that contains lots of helpful experience compiled from their many years of helping parents through a wide variety of challenges.

Theres so many insights here, and what most interested me most were the tools for handling kids emotions, such as instead of scolding, asking questions or lecturing, try to acknowledge feelings with words, art, writing or fantasy or just silent attention. By giving them our full attention we allow them to find their own way through their feelings and trust them to work it out. There’s a caveat here that all feelings can be accepted but some actions must be limited.

It’s been a challenge to use these tools sometimes, especially in the heat of the moment, but the results have been well worth the extra effort!

Recommended reading for anyone with young kids.
