We're building a monetary galaxy.
Gn #nostr frenz.
I stand beside
Each of you
Facing the void
Peacefully;
Knowing that together
We will experience
Everything.
I rode my motorcyvle today. A couple times up and down my street, and two laps through my hillside circuit.
Very deliberately, I am learning to ride my motorcycle.
Today was with sunglasses (glare of setting sun was bad yesterday.
Tomorrow I will likely take off, planning to go see some music in the park.
Friday I want to switch to my full helmet and boots. Been cheesing a bit with a bucket and trainers. If I can move up to using at least one of those without issue Friday, that would be great.
Sad if not true. Me and wife are 40s, and she is more attuned to fart humour, while I am the dirty dog, but we're very close on both counts.
I really hope that lasts into our 60s.
In my office, I have a mini-fridge, a keurig, and a Cinder. The Cinder is something I picked up based on reading about it on Saifedean's site. I think they are no longer selling them, seems they were going out of business - but it is basically a George Foreman grill with a flat plate top and bottom, and the plates are temperature controlled by a dial on the base. This make it really easy to cook a steak, or some sausages, while I am working. Set the plates to around 300°, sear, then drop it to less (like 225) and let it cook a little while.
I am really inconsistent at cook times/temps. I am usually working, so not really paying attention. I don't care that much about the doneness of the meat, I can eat steak at pretty much any temperature. Also a lot of the discount steak I get is thin cut, so it cooks almost as fast as it sears. For sausage, I'd rather be safe than sorry, so I leave it on there for a while.
It ends up working sort of like a souvide. Not spelling that right, it's two words, but you get the idea. Still, means that for very little effort, I eat steak and other meat while working throughout the day, and I don't even get out of my office chair.
Here, you'll just have to mentally add some white rice to this, and you'll have a sesame garlic ginger chicken, stir fried veggies teriyaki dish.
That I didn't eat at all. I ate a lot today already.
Food pics are imteresting. I do cook full family meals with veggies and starches and other standard american diet items. They often do look somewhat photogenic (I do care a bit about presentation, becauseveven at home, you eat with your eyes (and probably nose) first.)
But for me, I don't usually even eat dinner. And steaks just get a bit repetitive, and I don't bother with presentation for my own food while working.
So I could take bad pictures of food I eat, or take much better pictures of food I don't eat, but make for others. I really don't like either option.
Ok, I don't follow the actual use case for fedi. Like not really at all. I have my savings in #bitcoin. I might make purchases on-chain, or over Lightning. So what am I missing? (Similar goes for Liquid, by the way - I don't see where I would need that in my life.)
I do understand that people other than me may have other needs. I'm just hoping that whatever the use cases for fedi (and liquid) can be abstracted away by good software that lets me make purchases, pay bills, and get paid.
Yeah, already did that that.
Wow, I'm gonna be in a lot of trouble when the world figures out what I did there. Better not tell them just yet ;)
I would happily donate some politicians if it meant getting more devs.
Should I read Heidegger? If I do, where should I start? Being and Time?
I think I may have some immediate issues with this, as I discard the notion of original sin (or any sin, for that matter). Still, I keep running into references to Heidegger and probably should be more familiar with his work?
Objective truth will always fail you, breaking down as facts become useful fictions.
New contemplation:
Apply the timechain to ourselves.
Each moment we are alive is the hashed total of all prior moments.
Nothing is missing, everything is there to be found. There are no voids left in our past. The only void is our future.
Tick tock, next block.
What will be in that block? Only what we have worked to include. Our proof of work is the present. All of it.
What if I told you...
...the only truth is emotion, and it only lasts as long as you feel?
Actually no, that is not my conclusion. I am taking a sideways glance at interpersonal relationships, and seeing that instead of trying to fill a void in someone else or ourselves, we should be joining each other to face these voids together.
This isn't fun (although it can be)
This isn't work (although it can be)
This is just us. Peopling like people, peopling as hard as people possible can.
