I suspect that anything but co-sleeping is traumatizing to a child. In a culture that leaves you to your own, and during this time of mass confusion, it makes sense that parents might think it "ok" just like they thought it was ok to inject each other with experimental pharma in 2021.
Sleep training is surely the worst approach. I recall a nanny in a Latin American country crying to my wife that our American friends, whom she worked for, would allow their 2 yo to cry in its own bed for a hour. This concept is completely foreign to much of the world and our indigenous ancestors (pre "expert" era) would surely find it evil. Isn't this the problem of experts- that acting in consensus they can invert reality!?
The kids have so much going against them nowadays. I encourage parents to figure it out and enjoy the love and fun of co-sleeping. Your kids will never forget it- deep in their hearts- even if growing up erases their mental memory of it.

Inflammation/Inflation
Always associated it with natto. Didn't know you could cultivate it on yogurt too
At least when they Print for AI we get AI.
When they printed for Covid we just got tyranny.
Just amazing that the true cause is still obscured to 99% of people 😭
I've injured lower back a handful of times. When I find the right movement like dead bug or something, the pain immediately levels down 50% or more. Just goes to show that the solution is only right there.
Also, learning to sit helped too
Totally! And not to be too full of cliche but...as they say, the difference between medicine and poison is the dose
I mean budget determines a lot. On the low end, if you're in el zonte no need for a car. However it's possible to rent for the day informally from the shop where the first bitcoin payment was accepted. I recommend eating at Vikingo when they are open and making a reservation. You can get transport from the airport, I have a driver friend that we've relied on dm me.
In Uvita I'd say get a car. Restaurants are great and don't miss Dominical, especially the Indian restaurant there it's 🔥
Movement is medicine 💊
Been a while, how is everyone doing?
Proud moment for The Surfer Kids!!
Best results ever at the South African Junior Surfing Championships!!
Not a single one of our kids were eliminated in the first round of competition!
Another small step toward our goal of training a national champion within the next 5 years.

Great work!
Are cooperatives (food coops in the US for example) included in "the commons"?
Twitter is a minefield. Get rich quick is the order of the day.
All the distractions as before, plus mining stock runs, BTCTC runs, Yield Funds (MSTY)-----ZERO 'stay humble stack sats' vibes. Most would be fortunate to make it out with their stack intact.
Something you wouldn't expect about being a parent to an infant is understanding the terroir of spit up

Legislation supports SOV over MoE 100 to 1
Just listened to Pete Rizzo’s interview with Michael Terpin: https://x.com/supplyshockbw/status/1953226635081036132?s=46&t=wq0GoOCdXxA5DblxlsJJng
While it was excellent overall, there was one thing that I want to respectfully push back on. In discussing Bitcoin and/vs crypto, Michael notes that he looks at Bitcoin as "store of value" and the rest of crypto as "innovation". I feel very strongly that this is a narrative that is not only mistaken but against which we must push back (again, all respect to Michael).
I ask: innovation toward/for what? When I look out at the vast landscape of crypto, what I see is a network of projects guided by technological determinism and engineering masturbation. Projects that extol the virtue of innovation but offer up self-referential loops of engineering gymnastics garnished with flourishes of Web3, DeFi, Blockchain (all rhetorical devices).
So what is innovation? Well, I believe that it is something that moves us -- humanity -- into a new stage of development, of growth. One can argue over the etymology of the term "innovation" (see etymonline.com/word/innovation), however, I believe strongly that the restoration and renewal to which it speaks is a profoundly humanistic one, focused on virtue and evolution.
In its beautiful simplicity and what it offers us -- the ability to communicate truth, trust, value and meaning across time, space and culture (h/t to nostr:nprofile1qqsp2wdswcnnykz6jg5skv34tth9qw34x22ev4l42jcje25hjzt5yxspp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejs072k5u and nostr:nprofile1qqsfccf03dms7r3l6dwd4s4u2l7waptpu4s9qn4ztj9ealuwqdgjk0spz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuanpwf4k2tn9w5q3yamnwvaz7tmsw4e8qmr9wpskwtn9wvz3aku5) -- Bitcoin exudes innovation. It enables and ushers us into renewal, restoration, growth, and evolution across multiple domains of existence.
The manifest distinction between the self-referential, technological determinism of "crypto = innovation" and "Bitcoin = innovation" is that the latter ultimately makes human action and relationships the locus of activity. We are not anticipating salvation and surrendering ourselves to the tool, we are employing the tool (whether consciously or not in all instances) as a tool for human renewal and growth. We are re-ordering and re-constructing the architecture of human relationships. We are re-fashioning how we "communicate truth, trust, value and meaning across time, space and culture".
As far as what this looks like, well, I see it play out in multiple domains. It is evident in opportunity afforded mothers in Kenya participating in nostr:nprofile1qqstmxppwmj4wdfgkwg5kzeya4egfk3tlv9sp8ca22k7pg503vjenfcpz4mhxue69uhhwmm59eek7anzd96zu6r0wd6qz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ekxuct49ehx2aq6s7r0x who employ Bitcoin as means to re-claim their rightful, virtuous place within community and to restore and empower community in the process. I see it play out in the growth of children participating in nostr:nprofile1qqsptpha27kgrdnpw7cqs7ascrayvheshxy4jjwgjd5rdmz7dngnzvspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzvuhsz3rhwvaz7tmpwe6n2a3kdymhxdme0gmk66rzv96k2umhw3mr2mn6d9nxwungw95kjcekwechv6rrwgmh2cmdv3ekvvn6dp58x6ty9ehku6t0dchsqvdtyh who are moving toward an increased expression of their human potential against the heavy weight of oppressions that time and history have assigned to them at birth. I see it in the almost unimaginable spark of self-determination that is being realized in high Andes Mountain communities through nostr:nprofile1qqsq8s77zvvc2c3q4vhu9w7xpedye4kszk8a49mza3xcnu9nndyndrqpzdmhxue69uhh2uewdehhxarj9emkjmn9qyw8wumn8ghj7um4wpjhyttjv4kxz7fwvdjhxceww3exzer9qqr5wk'S work. And so on, and so forth across community-based projects and human rights cases harnessing Bitcoin.
Those of us privileged to live in Canada, the U.S. and other more affluent countries can also witness the innovation of Bitcoin is the unprecedented potential it offers many individuals and groups to climb the hierarchy of needs against the headwinds of social distress either caused by or exacerbated by debt-money. For instance, the opportunity afforded a GenZ-er to realistically plan for the sorts of life goals/goods (home ownership, financially sustainable family life) that were once simply taken for granted by most. In this respect, one can argue that "store of value = innovation".
I don't want to get bogged down in semantics nor over-extend this analysis. What I do want to get across is that we must actively resist the Siren call of crypto as innovation. Yes, the "Bitcoin is digital gold" analogy is useful and has some applications...but it only scratches the surface and is utterly inadequate at capturing the many overlapping circles of innovation that Bitcoin achieves or births.
Bitcoin is a store of value. Bitcoin is a medium of exchange. Bitcoin is a unit of account. Bitcoin is a network. Bitcoin is a protocol. Bitcoin is a map and the territory. Bitcoin is innovation and gives rise to innovation.
Let us not neglect the staggering beauty of this exquisite phenomenon. Let us not surrender the human story and evolution which Bitcoin exalts. Let us not relinquish the rightful claim to innovation which is Bitcoin and is set forth through Bitcoin. 🙏🧡
Is the call for it as a "store of value" also a siren call to be resisted?
Lumbar is relatively straight, stacked like a jenga tower. But it only really works on hard furniture and when you're sitting on your pubic bone.
My prescriptions for posture and back pain are getting kind of weird. That means they are either genius or crackpot 🤔
1. 20 minutes tummy time for adults on hard surface
2. Walk with weight on your head, could be as light as a folded kitchen towel.
3. Sit on your gooch/ pubic bone
Happy to explain any of them...
Ive never heard of lumbar support while sleeping, though I have heard of support under your knees, which indirectly supports the lower back. I've done that with success during when I had a lower back spasm.
Lumbar support is a scam.

It's pretty easy to discover if you mouth breathe more than you think you do.
During the day, just tape your mouth shut using medical tape for at least 10 minutes. Or just seal your lips.
If you feel "different" at all, you're mouth breathing way more than you realize. That feeling is your body adapting in real time to new conditions like higher co2. I only share this with you because I realized it for myself.
Mouth breathing (aka shallow breathing) impairs circulation and does lots of other crumby stuff. If you play sports or surf, shallow mouth breathing throughout the day negatively impacts your potential.
Found this oldie from the 50s. People have been surfing in Peru for a long time. I've been to Chicama before and man what a crazy wave. Went back in 2006 before development. I remember we ate at the same place every meal and the owner of our hostel was drugged out, and holed up in his room the entire time. Went with a couple buddies and had a blast especially hilarious when one of them got the shits!
What comes first, those core muscles or skeletal alignment on the line of gravity?
I believe it's the alignment coming first, which then creates a balanced, strong, relaxed core. The core then feeds into maintaining alignment, and back and forth ♾️.
#naturalalignment #posture
Our oldest boy never peed the bed and I also believe it has something to do with core strength, where low muscle tone/dev in the core (pelvic floor included) leave the kids less prepared to hold their business for the appropriate time
If you're expecting a baby this year (or in 5 years), or are a new parent, understand why laying them on their backs will stunt them physically and cognitively. The solution is prone.

Mine was concerningly low and now it's the main thing I focus on. #heavyhands is probably the quickest way to improve it.
