oof. That must have been scary

A great place! welcome 🙂

idk, folks. I think it's a good sign that he's popular, and I love that certain topics are now in the Overton window.

But really - do we think the WEF invited someone who's a genuine threat to their agenda?

We haven't yet seen this but have been warned that it might happen with our rabbits if they feel threatened when kindling. So I have nothing to offer but my sympathy.

I'm sorry - that must be pretty upsetting.

Saladino was my intro to the whole concept of carnivore, and I appreciate that he keeps experimenting to find what works for him. I heard Sally Norton say the other day that based on her struggles with oxalates, her attempts at full carnivore just haven't worked, and I think Saladino is similar (probably for different reasons). Also a lot of his work seems genuinely backed by his hunter-gatherer research, in which honey features prominently.

I'm not defending his conclusions, but if more folks approached eating the way Paul Saladino does, we would live in a radically different world.

The arrogance is almost as bad as the stupidity.

I can determine who gets the free money (and - wheee! free money)

welcome!

Will check it out - thank you!

Yes, I agree.

Since distancing from political parties I definitely watch it all with more amusement, but also with a pretty cynical eye ("how will this be used to gain more power?")

Yes! We've buried some buckets for the animals, and that definitely helps.

I didn't get around to doing that for our dishwater, though. An extended freeze is pretty rare for us, so this isn't an ongoing issue.

Hi, Liz, and welcome! many folks do hashtags on themes that they post about, so you can do searches by hashtag for areas that interest you.

Have fun 😄. It's a great place

GE, Nostr!

I listened to some of nostr:npub15u0l0pfjfcrkqc5ljumxwk3gvnknal2kl6vkvv8hr534c4fmd2dqnt5kmv's interview with Russell Brand tonight (excellent and very depressing, as always). Given some of what she is predicting, nostr:npub1m2mvvpjugwdehtaskrcl7ksvdqnnhnjur9v6g9v266nss504q7mqvlr8p9's post about Cashu working over Reticulum is encouraging. (Leaving aside for the moment the fact that I know nothing about either cashu or mesh networks.)

Hope you're all having a good start to the weekend!

I did a brief stint of carnivore (beef, salt, water) and one day I realized that I was in a fantastic mood, euphoric almost. I wish I had taken notes but I think it was about 3 weeks in.

Soon after I added things in and have been pretty loose for a few years, though one thing I didn't ever add back in was green veggies.

(Going back to carnivore now! I'm very curious about whether I get that same euphoria again.)

I've been thinking a lot about the fact that the WEF invited Milei and the Heritage guy to speak. That combined with the Dimon comments makes me think there's a shift in strategy: join and co-opt.

I've read several insightful articles about how the Occupy WallSt momentum was successfully redirected to social justice concerns, leaving the outrage intact and the banks and corporations untouched. If there's an undeniable grassroots populism building all over the world, the WEF et al are probably adjusting their strategy accordingly. Same ends, different approach.

Whitney Webb's recent interview might address this. I'm going to listen soon.

oh dear. I took a look on YT and the comments that I can see are ok but the recent ones are showing yet for me.

It's nice that you respond to them!

I haven't yet! I'll try that - thank you.

got it - thank you!

Hello, Nostriches! We're hunkering down for another 2 days of cold before we get a thaw. It took me about 2 hours to get the dishes done this morning (have to gradually melt the ice/snow in our camp kitchen) but the animals are doing fine and our young bull may have FINALLY figured out what to do with our heifer when she's in heat. 🐄💘

I'm encouraging people to get on Nostr but with Alby's waiting list I have to figure out another way. Any favorites? Can you connect any lightening wallet or do you actually need a node?

#asknostr

Sending good vibes your way!

I love seeing these projects!

Maria, what kind of rabbits do you have? And did that pelt come from an adult? (from what I hear, the pelt of the fryer might not be worth the trouble)
