I love this man. He’s a big part of why I found Bitcoin.

Bush Jr. trying to push the official narrative of how it happened after the smoke cleared.

“The purpose of a system is what it does.” Best quote I’ve heard in 2024 so far. Brilliant. nostr:npub15879mltlln6k8jy32k6xvagmtqx3zhsndchcey8gjyectwldk88sq5kv0n

Don’t change a thing. The world needs more truth and less pussy-footing around.

Today’s proof of work. I spotted this huge standing dead Jack Pine 2 years ago while hunting about an hour from our house. Today I went and got it. I could only just barely fit 12 rounds in my truck since they were all 24-30” diameter. I’ll likely buck and haul another load tomorrow. Fit perfectly. It was a bit of a sketchy felling job. One ten inch diameter 60’ Jack Pine was growing up through the limbs of the tree I wanted, so I had to thread the needle and flop that one out of the way first. And the tree itself had a massive limb pointing opposite the intended direction of fall, making the weight calculation really unusual, and a split in the trunk parallel to the direction of the undercut that really increased the risk of “barber chairing”. Everything worked like a dream, and the branches suspended the trunk about 18” off the ground for nice easy bucking. Fun day, but I’m exhausted. Now I just have to blast it all apart with the splitting maul once it has dried a bit.

The first time you get in your truck and you’re sitting on them, you know you’re old.

What the actual

I built this on a furniture dolly to charge two 80 A-h deep cycle marine batteries off a solar panel. It’ll run the deep freeze and a bunch of LED lights at least.

Yes it’s a problem. I just encourage people to use the rule of 3’s when starting out on their prepping journey. Strive for three days of essentials, then 3 weeks, then 3 months. Then longer. Any crisis we face as a society that lasts longer than that, we are going to have bigger problems than what “bugging in” will help overcome. It’s attainable. And be prepared to make anyone pay dearly at a moment’s notice if they come for you.

Until you hold your child for the first time.

Just some random pics.

Most people don’t have 3 days. I think it’s the most we can hope for the critical mass

I see the need for a general strike in our future. Collect your three months of preps. Let’s see who owns the means of production.

Fucking 56GB update. WTF is this Activision?

The Schelling point for most people regarding the corruption of money and the system in general is when they miss 3 meals.
