result of the cob test, after drying for a few days.

our subsoil, with just a little clay added, and dried grass.

minimal shrinking, no cracking, very solid. 🙂

Good morning nostr, today i'll need to water some trees, because once again the weather forecast was wrong. I'm starting to think that no human really makes the forecast, maybe an ai that hasnt been trained yet. And no human even bothers to to oversee the process, because the "human" meteorologists are also created by ai.

On the chicken front, we'll be starting to incubate a few more eggs. We recently bought a few chicks at tractor supply because we only had 2 of our eggs hatch from the last incubation. The bought chicks are not as hardy, and 2 of those died within a couple days. So i think we'll hatch some more. Anyway, yall have a great tuesday, enjoy your coffee, and do your work with a happy heart. #coffeechain #homesteading

So now I am officially not subject to the system any more.

I am a fultime homeschooling-farmer-carnivore!

Life is great!

That’s a retarded justification to say “well it can identify illegal immigrants.”

Not only do I care less about that than a giant centralized surveillance apparatus, the way to fix illegal immigration is simply to STOP SUBSIDIZING THE EVER LOCING FUCK OUT OF IT. If we stop paying for their travel, housing, letting them game the welfare system, and make them work honestly, 98% of it will go away all by itself. Paying to flood immigrants into the country and THEN also paying for a giant, centralized, Ai powered surveillance monstrosity is about as peak retarded as it gets

Gotta solve problems of govt with more govt amiright?

I think everyone expected individuals to adopt btc more than they have, it’s possible businesses and governments get it before normies

Isn’t his family, like, at the top of the pyramid?

Never had a broody hen. This is the last livestock species on our farm we've not successfully bred.

Apply paleo logic to everything.

We are still like our ancestors, especially metabolically and even socially.

When you try to get a lion to eat and support itself like a sheep then the lion will have both metabolic and psychological problems.

Our body likes sugar because for our ancestors who ate when they could, sugar was an instant source of energy, like honey for example, and could save their lives in the absence of food.

But our body is not made to live on carbohydrates, agriculture only started 10000 years ago and metabolically there is no adaptation, nor would there be because in general cereals have a low nutritional index.

A human can live only eating meat and be completely healthy, but cannot live only eating cereals and be healthy, for the simple fact that meat is the most complete food there is, in fact we do not need anything else.

Unfortunately the Fiat economy makes meat a more and more precious commodity every day, maybe we should consider going back to raising our own animals for self-consumption.

I love this! We currently have some native shrubs for shade and cover and a few established fruit trees. I want to increase the variety of their forage food to decrease feed costs. There are some great options I'll try too.

This app does not work. I hear you guys promoting it on podcasts but when people come here and try it and find you can’t even add followers it’s not a good look. If the devs want it to compete with x make sure its basic functions work…. Implement the same features and algos that twitter is using and ppl will come over here if it truely is censorship resistant.

What are you planting in your chicken area? How are you protecting those plants? And are they for your benifit, the chickens or the soil?

One counterintuitive bad thing about Bitcoin is that it is a far better investment than land.

Real estate prices are inflated by decades of fiat games. Cheap debt. Tax advantages. Mortgages stretched across generations. This early state of bitcoin makes it massively cheaper in comparison.

So yes. If we are talking pure returns, real estate is a shitcoin. Buy Bitcoin.

But here’s where it stops making sense. I see plenty of Bitcoiners who've already won. They've seen massive gains and are financially free in ways that we all dream of. Yet they still live in cities boxed into apartment buildings and subdivisions. They still live inside the system they claim to see through.

Admittedly, I have my own bias here. I grew up on a farm and will never totally feel comfortable living a city life in a way that many people do. But I also fell for the same trap during my 8 years in cities and didn’t appreciate what I had growing up until I came back.

When you’re in the city and think about moving to a small town, you worry about what you will miss. The events. The bars. The endless options. I was afraid of that too and moving home felt like giving something up.

But once I was out, I realized none of it mattered. You stop chasing plans and start actually living.

Many Bitcoiners talk about citadels. About someday buying land. About someday living differently. I get it. Making the leap is expensive. I wouldn’t have been able to do it if my dad hadn’t made it his life’s mission to buy the farm where I was raised. What feels misguided is having that financial option and still choosing to live and raise your kids in their world.

You get eighteen years with them. That’s basically it.

Do you really want those years spent in apartments and crowded parks? Wouldn’t you rather have them outside? On land they can know. In a place they can return to with their kids?

At a certain point, you have to stop looking at your gains as numbers on a screen. You need to turn them into something real. Put down roots. Give your kids a place to know. Buy The Family Land

Education available to everyone is literally exactly what it is… for lower education anyway. Higher education should be equally as universally accessible (without burying children in debt before they have a job).

So Is it perfect? No.

Is it toxic? Not remotely.

Should it be better? Absolutely.

Would destroying it completely directly lead to throwing us back to a time where only those who could afford it could learn to read? Without a doubt.

The last one confuses me a bit… Public education is one of the most significant creation that’s singly handedly lead to education being something reserved purely for the rich, elite, upper and ruling classes, to being something *literally* everyone can receive.

To the Founding Fathers of the United States one of the most revolutionary and core concept’s they created was the idea of a public institution that provided education to each and every person, regardless of race, gender, religion, or social class.

Jefferson, Franklin, and Adams all *strongly* fought for the creation of public schools, so that a person that grew up on a farm (who were historically left completely illiterate) could receive the same education as someone that grew up in the richest family, or the highest eschlons of society.

Without public education we might as well go back to the dark ages. When people attended church where mass was conducted in LATIN — so not only could they not understand the words spoken, but wouldn’t be able to verify them if they wanted to, since they couldn’t read the Bible.

Being anti-public education is to be anti-knowledge. Anti-learning. Believing that these things should be tightly held and kept secret by the ruling class, at the expense of the public as a whole.
