That was not a professional wedding DJ, that was an ego-driven douchebag.
Yes, HBD and just keep going. I'm coming up on yr/19 clean. Simple but not always easy. Sometimes it is all about an unforgiving dogged stubbornness - but most times it is just a matter of adjusting the people/places/things around you.
New windshield wiper blades is one of those quality of life upgrades that hits well above its pay grade.
Worth the sats.

How did it work out so far? I paid for one of the zap-it's to see what it was like. It is better than nothing, but realize the link itself is not paywalled. I expect eventually there'll be tools here for doing it properly.
I've been on boarding a friend of mine here ( nostr:npub149qe3lga9w25p8mrsugggtsfz4zkzk0a5ce8j8fxk64swdz9jmzstmdxxc ) who's been wanting to do stuff like this for awhile. I discouraged her from starting an OF because she's not in a position to put in the kind of work required to be successful there. I got her on BentBox first, but that's a bit of a hustle as well.
Nostr has good potential to work, and it is still early days, so I've been helping her get set up and figure it out.
Freedom's just another word for
nothing left to choose.
Never say "never",. except when you are saying "never" to say "never say never"
Strike is great because it is bitcoin-only, and serves as an exchange so you can covert your sats to usd and plop it into your bank account if you want to. You do have to use strike.army to get the LN address to allow for receiving zaps directly on notes, but once your setup it is slick.
I keep flipping btwn Coracle & Primal.
People may pay if the value FAR outweighs the cost. Not everyone, of course. The idea of ads disgusts me but perhaps there really is no other way?
I suppose it'd end up being both at some point. Maybe the classic pay-for-no-ads model is what happens.
Most people are average.
(it is my b-day today too!) If there's any left in your pile - zap my friend who I've been slowly working to onboard via txt messages the past couple of days.. npub149qe3lga9w25p8mrsugggtsfz4zkzk0a5ce8j8fxk64swdz9jmzstmdxxc
Coracle has been gaining steam w/ me lately.
Each one of those is a server that takes your notes/posts and sends them to everyone else on the relay. Conversely, it also sends everyone's posts to your feed. No, you don't really need to mess with them. You *can* decide to only send or only to receive from them individually.
At least the other one sang me the happy #birthday song the best he knew how.

It is my birthday today and this little shit DGAF
