After having a little money for a few years and dabbling in some of the finer things I can tell you that nothing beats an ordinary life.

- Getting a slice of pizza and seeing a movie with your wife.

- Hitting the bar and having drinks and conversation with your friends.

- Hanging out at the park throwing a frisbee around.

- Taking the kids for ice cream on a hot summer day.

- An economy plane ticket to go visit family or an old friend.

- A reliable car that takes you where you need to go.

- A great blanket to snuggle up in on a cold winter day.

If you have these things already, trust me… you are wealthier than you know.

Drinking $1,000 wine and eating caviar with famous people won’t make you any happier. In fact it may have the opposite effect.

As the bitcoin price rises you should definitely dabble in fancy shit if you feel compelled, but once you get a peak behind the curtain you’ll find out pretty quick it’s hollow and meaningless compared to the things that really matter.

🤔 How quickly can I get a decent following from lets say 60 to 3,000 bitcoiners on NOSTR?

I’ll zap you serious amounts of sats if you:

- follow me

- engage with my content (talk shit or criticism also welcome)

- create your own valuable content on NOSTR

- Pull people in from X and encourage them to use sovereign social media without filters or algorithms

Together we can increase NOSTR adoption amongst Bitcoiners to make it more robust, by actually using the tools these awesome devs built for us.

Are you in? Let’s do some PoW!

Nice! I think I will order some to test along side my Trainwreck

Yes, it's all good for outdoor but the most stable variety is the redbud haze. The others are experimental.

We need to get them on nostr

Children are best socialized by having close contact with their elders, not their peers.

These are incomparably precious days with your children, and the world needs adults who know how to think (parents’ job), to respect what’s important (family’s job), and to love what’s beautiful (no one loves them like you do).

It’s not easy, but it’s the BEST. It doesn’t have to be perfect to be VERY right.

It’s far more efficient in giving them a quality education, and happy children easily learn to honor and respect their fellow human beings.

You’re in excellent & growing company— your kids will have plenty of opportunity to be very well socialized with other adults & peers, too.

You won’t regret it. 💗

Homeschoolers are actually better socialized bc they interact with people of all ages and in a variety of situations on a regular basis. With regards to sports, our family opted out due to the multiple practice days and weekend games that would take over everything else we as a family wanted to do. That being said, bc you pay taxes into the public school system, you *could* still play sports in that system even if you're schooling outside of it. Contact HSLDA or another legal homeschooling entity for the laws in your state, or dig around the homeschooling community in your area. My kids opted to play sports outside of the system, like frisbee, airsoft games, and volleyball.

How does a blind person know when they are done wiping (assuming they don't use a bidet)?

I love that my wife posed this question to me over dinner tonight.

I didn't have a good answer.

This has also sent me down a slippery slope of wondering about other events that happen in the bathroom and how the visually impared navigate this part of life.

Can anyone enlightening me?

They're great. My order came quickly and was well packaged. Trees and shrubs were healthy.
