I had glasses for a few months until I scratched them up too much and stopped wearing them. One thing I noticed, being a night owl who likes reading, is my headaches from squinting to read went away. Once I gave up on my specs I started accepting I needed to relax my eyes and read the slightly blurry words to avoid headaches. I never experienced the further deterioration mentioned above, but perhaps I’m a boiled frog and just don’t notice it. 😅

I will :) I just need to decide where to start. I don’t necessarily like all of my early tutorials or my lack of facial hair in some of them 🥲🤣

nostr:npub1n47jznzclhr8kzyyv6dtl4cqeltuzuajngx93m3flw2sdw9kfmaqjh8w74 - Thank you so very much for an incredible introduction to basic options of Primal. The precision, patience and pragmatism you have so very kindly shared with me - completely changed my take an understanding of Primal’s philosophy and modus operandi. Extremely grateful and excited to let things unfold… meanwhile keep on posting… just in case? Perhaps!

My friend Rishee who introduced me to Primal one fine evening promised me the most fulfilling and inspiring conversations. Your message Mike was a stellar example of such communication! Refreshing, Heartwarming, Exciting af 😈

PS. I got to know about you guys on this divine little boat moored in Vauxhall (south side) by the Lambeth Bridge…

Thank you so much Rishee for this jolly introduction… I tried to call you to ask if I can post our pic… but since you didn’t pick up and - surely - we are among friends and well wishers - in a long run this shouldn’t be an issue at all… Hope I am right!

That night we have met 2 great Buddhist guys staying at our #DiamondWay Center in Vauxhall and the most intriguing girl - Carla (Choko) - who doesn’t only knows the dogs I walk, but also quoted something truly wise and thoughtful… I’ll try to paraphrase…

It was about your “shady friends”… even the very last one… how do you handle it?!?!?

Any ideas - Shady Friends Retreat? Block? Tolerate? Kill them softly with your Love? Move swiftly on?

PS2. I have a dodgy feeling I’ll be using Primal as my little diary filled with the most random ideas, photos, films (if I can upload them again)…

Thank you nostr:npub1yxq9hwcut9rch7nh6r4zatnr9p5sh0pnum2gevypfwwg2vzprups8kpcze :) I appreciated the opportunity to share what I’d found out so far :)

nostr:npub1yaul8k059377u9lsu67de7y637w4jtgeuwcmh5n7788l6xnlnrgs3tvjmf & I recorded this morning. Was great catching up with you, Terry.

You can find the conversation in all the usual spots if you want to take a listen 🤙

1hr in, really enjoying the discussion so far, 30min to go 😊

I generated one earlier, it kind of is, I will have to tag my videos so that they show up on the right “pages” on my site, I hope as they iterate on the service they add the ability to filter out posts I don’t want to appear on my site as well as the ability to manually select what post goes to what page or to be able to make standalone pages that aren’t technically nostr posts. Somehow…

Thank you for the suggestion, will research their service :)

Trying to decide if I should slowly upload all my past yo-yo tutorials to my nostr (spaced out so as to not spam the feed/followers) so that I can phase out my website and avoid YouTube…

I really enjoy listening to Richard Dawkins lectures 🤷‍♂️ wish he were on Nostr 😮‍💨

I like how Primal stole that old twitter crop feature. Based.

Houdini’s Bridge Jump is a yo-yo trick I made up in January of this year, it’s built off an intermediate trick element known as a Houdini Mount, which is why I used that in the name of mine. #yostr https://v.nostr.build/Leq0R.mp4

Also I attempted to change my theme and it generated a second website with a new domain

Awesome thank you for the response I will go checkout the preview :) is there a knowledge-base/faq? I am curious about using my own domain with it. 🙏
