Took our granddaughter out for her 13th birthday! She chose Texas Roadhouse, yes! 7% back in bitcoin with the Fold card gift card! Bill was just over $50...free 2500+ Sats!

When I was a teenager, we were in Canton Ohio for the Pro Football Hall of Fame parade and walking down Cleveland Ave minding our own business myself, my cousin and step brother were jumped by some blacks... I've been leery ever since.

And that was long before Canton became the shit hole is is today... Circa 1986... Now Canton is the Memphis of Ohio.

Go ahead and try that shit today.

In the 1980s, Buck set its sights on something new: the military.

With renewed U.S. defense efforts under President Reagan, Buck introduced the Model 184 BuckMaster in 1984, a rugged, hollow-handle survival knife aimed at elite units like Navy SEALs. But it was the pop culture explosion of Rambo that turned it into a hit.

That momentum continued when Buck became a subcontractor for the U.S. Army’s M9 bayonet, a multi-purpose survival tool with a forged 7-1/8" blade, sawback spine, wire cutter, and emergency honing stone. Its performance wasn’t just military-grade, it won over outdoorsmen, too.

Both the BuckMaster and M9 proved one thing: Buck's innovation could serve on the front lines, and in the wild, read more here: https://bit.ly/4lx9y2Z

Can you fucking image, smart enough to be in computer science, but so fucking dumb as not an interest in bitcoin. I can't help these people.

They will get bitcoin edcuation at the price they deserve. Oh and Fuck colleges that are not teaching this. Fuck them all to hell.

I don't, I inquired about being able to, but haven't heard back from them. Have you heard about the company meanwhile? https://meanwhile.bm/

Since they are not regulated by the state, I wouldn't be able to sell them anyway, but I do believe in what they are doing. Had a great presentation at a local insurance conference by them. I'm thinking about getting a policy.

Right! I have 30 acres and it's constant keeping the trees at bay. I try to do one section every fall with the trees... Bought a chipper for more carbon to add to our poor soil. Problem is it's work!

Awesome! Many people don't like or believe in life insurance... I believe it's a generational wealth game changer, that's why I started nostr:nprofile1qqs0lk85lzyctz5n2mpnlfkeqpz5lhdu4ng3vyg3jjlz9zjsxt7guuqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0y67d7s and specialize in helping people understand it. I wonder how many young people are struggling to make a home purchase when parents or grandparents are sitting on locked up capital in equity in their homes.

Hopefully when my grandkids are ready we'll be able to teach them how our system works... And we already have life insurance on all of them they will be able to use...

Welp, I think I almost fucked up.

There was a really nice pile of shrooms next to our driveway (the ones on the right) which I thought were chantrells... So I grabbed a bowl and collected them. Then I took a stroll into the woods and found some more mushrooms that I also thought were chantrells, but they were older and not as fresh... Went to cook up the ones on the right and something just gave me a wild hair to do some research... Well fml, I think those on the right are false chantrells.

As they were cooking in the pan wit some butter, I made a call and trashed them.

#1 in the videos I watched, real chantrells don't have gills, they have false gills.

#2 I've only found real chantrells in the woods, not in the open

#3 when I find chantrells they are normally close to each other but scattered, and the ones on the right were all bunched together.

When we started cooking them they turned a weird color. Also when we washed them they stained the towel orange, which I never noticed before.

This is a case if you don't know Wtf you're doing, maybe you shouldn't be doing it.

We bit the bullet back in 2016 and got a speed queen. They make washers for laundry mats... It's been flawless.

Regardless if it increases testosterone... It feels so good, and makes me horny as all get out. Especially when doing it in the swimming pool.

I'm all for sunning the balls!

The outer part of Eastern juniper will break down much faster than the heart wood.. Charing the part that touches soil will help prevent that because char (aka biochar) will never break down

If you have a pressure washer I've see videos that you can just strip with it. Works slick. Have to let it age a bit, but the bark strips right off.

You gonna strip them and char the end going into the ground? I need to build a wood shed, problem is I am lazy...

Glad I was able to contribute, in part to some of the early successes of the BuckLite. I picked my first one up at the PX on Ft. Campbell in 1989 and carried it to Desert Storm. I still have it as well as several others that I bought over the years

I've had mine for several years, probably about 4... We have a rider you can add onto our other legal membership for like $10/mo that covers just firearm related issues.

This darned bump... Any ideas on how to make it go away?

Replying to Avatar Keith

Have you tried just showering her with love? A lot of people, myself included, say and do a lot of stupid things when we are young. Young people are more susceptible to programming, let her be wrong for a while and love her anyway. Did you do everything perfect, as a parent? Homeschool, pass along freedom mindset, teach self reliant skills? Chances are you made a mistake or two along the way. Give her a chance to make her mistakes and feel loved anyway. The same way kids love parents, despite our mistakes.

Maybe you do need some distance or to set healthy boundaries. A lot of young women go through a phase where they are just mean. They will say anything they can to hurt you. It’s a normal part of development. Nature designed human parents and children to separate at some point and sometimes it’s painful.

One of my daughters and I had a very difficult relationship from the time she was about 15 to about 30. After a couple of years of fighting I developed a strategy to protect myself while still loving her. Whenever she would start attacking me I would say something like β€œI love you, if you ever have a real emergency you can always call me,” Then I would get in the car and drive away until she went to bed or left the house once she was older.

This takes patience and practice. You are the parent and your job of leading by example does not end just because your child’s age is a certain number. You will screw up, just keep trying. Don’t get discouraged or frustrated. If this doesn’t work, try new things. Whenever an approach I tried would fail I would say to myself β€œWhat can I do that protects me and still allows her to love me?”

It's been a challenge for years now. She's 32 and lost her mind in college. There is no talking to her about any subject anymore. We do distance ourselves maybe get together once a month.
