Salt Lake City is better 😅. At least here you don’t have to live in St Louis and still just a few minutes from farmland.

A little James Allen for your edification.

“You believe (and upon this little word belief hang all our sorrows and joys) that outward things have the power to make or mar your life; by so doing you submit to those outward things, confess that you are their slave, and they your unconditional master; by so doing, you invest them with a power which they do not, of themselves, possess, and you succumb, in reality, not to the mere circumstances, but to the gloom or gladness, the fear or hope, the strength or weakness, which your thought-sphere has thrown around them.”

Thanks for saying it 😅.

You don’t bring the world up by finding everyone in need and helping them. You bring the world up by doing our best at home, by perfecting the lot we have been given. It feels good to the ego to say what you’re saying, but it falls flat in the face of real progress. Let me leave you with a quote from Emerson.

“Love abroad is spite at home” or, for more context here is the verse:

“Go love thy infant;

love thy wood-chopper:

be good-natured and modest:

have that grace;

and never varnish your hard,

uncharitable ambition with this incredible tenderness for black folk a thousand miles off.

Thy love afar is spite at home.

Rough and graceless would be such greeting,

but truth is handsomer than the affectation of love. “

Your goodness must have some edge to it, — else it is none.”

Yeah, I would love a “sponsor” flair that took 18,500 sats a month or whatever the $5 equivalent was at the time. Lichess does this and it works wonderfully.

True

To each their own, but this ain’t it bro.

nostr:npub1cashappn03s3cl2ljsdntv0v28e2um5lgx4vjctqjt23pcwzjhsqmtdg5l why did your account go radio silent? Keep posting the content and keep the dream of #nostr alive.

nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s you should charge a one time fee for Damus. I’d pay it gladly. It would help build revenue. Even if it’s just $4.99. If you don’t want Apple involved, you could even do it for the relay.. one time fee of 18,500 sats for write access on the relay.

I swear to god this green line trend is the funniest the internet has been for a long time.

Good morning, #Nostr! Found this on X, thought you’d enjoy. #bitcoin https://video.nostr.build/9f9d32584d953fb1182249c02a169c498e4323cb716f3c193c19d3d4f2fd473a.mov

Good night #Nostr! I’ll actually post on the #coffeechain tomorrow this time 😅.

Why? Is it not producing energy?

My earth runners finally got a hole in them. Got well over a year of everyday use in on these. I walked 20+ miles a week too. I will definitely be ordering another pair.

“It is not sufficient to deny or ignore evil; it must be understood. It is not enough to pray to God to remove the evil; you must find out why it is there, and what lesson it has for you.

It is of no avail to fret and fume and chafe at the chains which bind you; you must know why and how you are bound. Therefore, reader, you must get outside yourself, and must begin to examine and understand yourself.

You must cease to be a disobedient child in the school of experience and must begin to learn, with humility and patience, the lessons that are set for your edification and ultimate perfection; for evil, when rightly understood, is found to be, not an unlimited power or principle in the universe, but a passing phase of human experience, and it therefore becomes a teacher to those who are willing to learn.”

“

Unrest and pain and sorrow are the shadows of life. There is no heart in all the world that has not felt the sting of pain, no mind has not been tossed upon the dark waters of trouble, no eye that has not wept the hot blinding tears of unspeakable anguish.

There is no household where the Great Destroyers, disease and death, have not entered, severing heart from heart, and casting over all the dark pall of sorrow. In the strong, and apparently indestructible meshes of evil all are more or less fast caught, and pain, unhappiness, and misfortune wait upon mankind.”

What’s funny is that real redheads stand out like a sore thumb. Not just with stunning beauty but with their freckles and pale white skin. Growing up around dozens of red heads it is always easy to spot the fakes.

Only real ones know how orgasmic eye drops are during allergy season.
