Classic Florida Pic. On the edge of the everglades, guy on the dock fishing...the black dot on the watter is the head a of big gator, wish I would have got it side ways to show size.

Great sunset. Great walk. Snakes, gators around, bushes moving all over...keep me on my toes.

I started doing this about a year ago, got my two little children into it... maybe 1 out of 10 fall back to maple syrup, but honey for the win.

Interesting... obviously I am learning so not sure how it has behave, but at least during covid it seem that it skyrock in value. For some reason always though that crisis are almost always a reminder to people that there is tons of value in a peer to peer financial system independent from legacy fiat.

Randomly checking nostr to see what things are new...and there are weird things all the time here 😂.

You can just stay weird.

You can just enjoy a sunset.

GM,

In Spanish, we have a saying: "Cuando el río suena, es porque piedras trae," which is similar to "Where there's smoke, there's fire."

I’m not all in on BTC, not because I don’t want to, but because I don’t have much to invest in it currently. However, I do my part with what I can.

Regarding the Ross Ulbricht case, I tried to inform myself as much as possible, and this episode of nostr:nprofile1qyfhwumn8ghj7ctvvahjuat50phjummwv5q32amnwvaz7tm9v3jkutnwdaehgu3wd3skueqqyzu7we2xhgry2mknq8v7227yn7jguu9xhu3g90n6rtnjj3mpyq3ackdvvhl was really helpful.

Now, with the U.S. starting this national reserve of seized assets, like the ones from Ross, and considering the very high likelihood that his case is, at the very least, partially framed in many areas, national powers, corporate power, etc. , all seeking a piece or control over BTC. In, well, questionable ways (like a president and his wife realizing just unfounded crypto trash!?). It all just keeps pointing to positive trends regarding the seriousness of its relevance.

The timing, with possible wars, is prime time for BTC’s value to rise.

The U.S. government appeals to populism, nationalism, and the constant new attempts to regain relevance.

Very interesting times, and I am amazed at the role Bitcoin will play in the coming years ahead of us.

I am thankful for Nostr, which continues to provide more and more insight to sideliners like me, who are just absorbing as much knowledge as we can while we consider our best way forward.

100% true!! Even now that's a good reminder, tool sickness is real haha.

We started with a $400 contractor saw. before upgrading we bought a planer and jointer, didn't expend more than $2000 on those last two combined and make over $200K easily in the spam of two years.

Of course we wanted the better set up and we did bought it eventually. Was way nicer.

My rule, buy the best tool you can afford at the moment that will last you the longer.

X(.)com is such a toxic place right now.

Dreamcast was absolutely ahead of its time 100% correct. Love it so much. I start counting my family's ones from Atari and Sega, those were my older brother, I start playing with Nintendo, then got hook for a while with Castelvania in Super Nintendo.

Fun times.

there are welcome and introduction relays...what about we encourage others to have some of those relays so they can read when a new person comes in.

depending on their introduction more or less people will engage.

I did use primal at the start and got many people saying hi.

but the trending. which currently I do not find that helpful, at the time it was very helpful to follow others. So that is a good one for that purpose.

A nation that has lost its way many many decades ago.

Sad.

It has pivoted from left to right and right to left so many times, that has forgotten that there is actual right and wrong.

You do not deal "cards" with the wrong, you do not call evil, good. Neither good, evil.

You stand by your principle and pay a dam dear price for it. But you do it because it's the right thing to do.

There is always opportunity for diplomacy, and there is always the fork in the road when diplomacy is dressed in a web of lies, to make it more appealing to the masses.

When the masses have bought into that narrative and are incapable of calling out bad behavior, lies, and falsehood. But just praise equally well and honorable executed actions, the same as untruthful founded ones, just the same because that's what their "party" is doing...or that's "the best for MY country". That is the moment you know your party has become another cult.

Then morals have been broken.

Then the line that divided good from evil in our hearts is blurred, that line is in every heart, and is a very thin one.

Dark times ahead....but also if you hold faith in Christ, you know the end of the story, you also know your alliance is with the ONE man sitting on the throne, with your one and ONLY citizenship in heaven. So if you are indeed free in Christ, do not take offense in your popular or unpopular political party, leader, or country, call them out all just the same in the Light of what you know as the TRUTH.
