My first #zapathon, and I don't really know what that is, but everyone seems very excited π

Theyβre accelerating as they lose control. This is bullish. Donβt give them an inch. Remove yourself from their chess board. Opt into bitcoin. https://video.nostr.build/e753a825fc48e44dd71d8dd0bb83b3a399c4957b47e2d13cf4c6c3b3f04e8b92.mov
It will be your choice*

my usual response to this is that free speech sucks - because unfortunately some folks are assholes - but the alternative is much worse
We need an Odell prediction checklist for the Twitter verification steps.
β Bluecheck verification expanded
β first step to extending verification to non-blue check accounts

Ours are wild! We planted a few trees before we realized that we had some already on the property (mature ones and a lot of volunteers). The fruit is delicious. I had never eaten wild American persimmon before this year.
I haven't looked into cultivars. There must be some amazing ones!
Sorry about Colleen βΉοΈ
ooooh that sounds amazing. One of my projects this fall was planting cold-hardy pomegranates. Crossing my fingers that they make it through their first winter.
When you get land, let's start a Nostr cuttings exchange. Soon I'll be able to share elderberry, mulberry, various kinds of figs, American persimmon and hopefully some currants and aronia.
(I know that some of this is in direct contradiction to my post above...)
He's been pretty clear about regretting his stance on some of the covid measures.
Do you have any reason to say that he was a paid shill - that's a pretty strong accusation - rather than just a victim of propaganda himself? (as most of us have been at some point...)
Jujube trees at HOA! so cool. They must be getting more popular (which means that you'll have lots of options later on - people selling cuttings - when you're ready for them).
Sounds like you had a good time π
It's incredible.
As with Krugman's moronic statements about inflation- either Yellen is really stupid or she assumes that we are.
Rev.Hodl responses are terrific and thoughtful.
You can also take a look at some of the permaculture accounts on here! lots of good stuff going on in the world
There are some wonderful projects happening that might surprise you.
Once we leave the extractive and large-scale framework of conventional agriculture, things start to open up a lot.
What do you mean by "agricultural land?" My land is not "agricultural land" but we might be close to filling all of our protein needs within just a few years, and in the meantime we're seeing dramatically more biodiversity and we're building the fertility of the soils.
If you're curious to explore more -
Silvopasture = growing trees on animal pasture (so: fertile soils, protein, nut/fruit crops from the trees).
Permaculture = incredibly productive and rich ecosystems
Intensive rotational grazing = moving ruminants around as they graze, which dramatically improves pasture (so eventually means much more productive land) and improves soil (which means better drought resistance and stronger ecosystem in general)
Wise use of animals and land contouring can lead to big improvement in fertility and food production in nearly every climate.
Then there's the use of biochar, thoughtful interplantings/symbiotic relationships, hydroponics... there's a lot going on and plenty of room for hope outside the factory farming and monocropping world besides cows in the Alps.
Every once in a while we find a treasure of hidden eggs! There are lots of wonderful surprise moments in life on the land, but this is a particularly delicious one.
"human musk of the startup grind" lol
At a talk about how to maintain water on your homestead. Super cool, looking forward to putting what nostr:npub1e2rd2k45ym2jmctnysfadxumrvrr57vqj69ck6trt2y62c40r0kqs9lx8t and I learn into practice someday.

one of the families that we met at the Doughtery workshop at HOA a few years ago helped us find our land. We're still in touch and see them often, and Beth's guidance and enouragement runs through our conversations and efforts.
I'm excited to hear more about what you both learn!

I'll look into the hay wagons - thank you! Most of our pasture is on very steep slopes, so any kind of mobile structures are really tricky. We're growing trees so that eventually we have a silvopasture system, but of course that takes time.
