Long day today but a huge sense of accomplishment. My first solo pig. I cut this pig’s nuts when it was only a few days old and over the last eight months raised it to a respectable #260 on forage, fresh produce and non-gmo/soy free feed.

I’m a first year homesteader, I’ll be 50 this year. I never raised and harvested my own large animal before. The closest thing I’ve done to this is shoot a few quail or go fishing.

Last year I decided to leave the city and move to the woods with my wife and dog to raise our own food.

I have to tell you. For me, this was almost like meditation. Practicing the skills I’ve learned over the last year, outside, phone in the house, just me being outside, by myself, in nature, doing natural things.

This is a big job for one person and I’m tired, but I’m also very satisfied. Thanks to everyone who helped me get here. The list is too long to post, but y’all know who you are.

This makes me sad.

Before we get into this, let me be clear. Trump is the best president we’ve had in 170 years. The best president since Andrew Jackson who actually shut down the Federal Reserve. I voted for Trump twice and I will vote for him a third time.

Please remember, we’re both on Noster. We both understand bitcoin and how the system is rigged against us in everything from the food, we buy, to the deep state, to the medicine we take, to the military industrial global elite.

All I’m trying to point out is that Trump is not perfect, he’s just another politician with his own interest at heart. It just so happens that Trump believes a strong middle class is a key to him acquiring more wealth. But he doesn’t give a shit about you or me. He will say anything he needs to in order to get elected. So, go ahead. Convince me. I’ll start with this quote.

“I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air,” Trump tweeted on July 11, 2019.

Yep, he is sure to: put pressure on the Fed to artificially lower interest rates, print fiat like crazy and require groups like the AFGE to buy treasuries because the paper is worthless on the open market. Just like he did last time.

Don’t think I’m pro Biden or pro deep state because I have criticisms of Trump. The current administration is disgusting. I’m just trying to open your eyes, as a Bitcoiner, to his terrible economic policies.

“their” Sorry, had to do it.

I understand. One of my best employees lives in Pakistan. He’s been with me for 13 years. There has been a transfer from my bank to his every two weeks and we still have problems sometimes.

1. Have you heard the argument that bitcoin is halal and that fiat is haram due to the fact that inflationary monetary policy is akin to paying interest? I don’t think that’s a stretch at all, but I’m not Muslim, so what do I know.

2. OMG Lyn Alden replied to my note on Nostr! I’m a giddy fan boy. I’m going to print this and put it in my office. 🤩

Some people are problem solvers and some are not. Generally speaking, those that can solve problems get farther in life than those that can only take direction.

This is exactly what I’m talking about. Don’t tell me why you can’t. Tell me how you can. Maybe there are more steps, idk.

Hi Lyn, I’m a fan. Listened to you be interviewed several times, bought your book, etc.

In my experience, oftentimes highly intelligent and experienced people such as yourself have so much information that you end up hamstringing yourself. Go trade some fiat for Bitcoin and give it to someone who can trade bitcoin for EGP or whatever you need.

I don’t let my employees come to me with problems unless they also bring a solution and I’m holding you to the same standard.

I’m sorry you are having problems with bank wires. Now tell me how you fixed the problem using bitcoin.

A Ukie from Pennsylvania calling other people a Yankees? Now I’ve heard it all.

I poured myself some coffee, opened NOSTR and this was the first note in my feed. I blew hot coffee out my nose and made a mess. Thanks for starting my day off with a laugh 😂

It’s not 5.56. It’s thick walled .223!

Help me understand.

When someone gets a loan to buy a house they can stop making payments and the government will give them a grant to pay off the loan?

Keep it.

There you go

Thanks for posting. News like this is kept from us here in the US. Please keep us updated. Someone should start a bitcoin fund in case this goes the way of the Canadian trucker protest.

It’s already been done via ham radio.

Most of the money spent by the department of defense is not spent in defense of our country.

The links still don’t work. If I win I’d wear the same shirt every day until it wears out. If I won the stickers I’d put them on the front door of local businesses.
