Imagine playing Monopoly: and NEVER buying any property. Just went around giving your money to the rich, and trying to stay out of jail.

Sounds ridiculous?

That's how most people live their lives.

If this goes well, it can change my life completely.

So I noticed a delivery company had a job open for a guaranteed $175/day. Box trucks, vans. This is alot more than I make doordashing....I make anywhere from $25-100/day depending on the day.

I was doing some research and noticed they didn't have any good reviews from customers...

Customer satisfaction is the biggest part of doordashing. I'm sure I can help prevent those bad reviews.

I think the plan will be to call them tomorrow, and make a pitch to hire me for $200/day.

This would be the equivalent of like 3-4 days doordashing, in one day.

🙏

So I’m new here… just trying to find my footing.

I want this space to be different from regular social media.

Could I be honest to the core?

Could I be vulnerable?

Could I show more than the polished parts of me?

I feel excited to share my voice.

And… I fear the shame that might come if I express something unpopular.

Still, I’m here. Choosing truth over approval.

full report for friends asking:

Freak accident last night, slipped and fell at a BBQ, and a fillet knife sliced my peroneal nerve and a major artery, all the way into my shin bone. I didn’t feel anything, but I looked down and saw my bone and the wound pouring.

I was bleeding out fast. I applied pressure with my hand directly on the exposed artery and bone and hopped over to my friends. My friends and I tied a tank top around the wound, jammed in a pen for a makeshift tourniquet, wound it up tight to stop the bloodflow, then made two more above and below the wound with our shirts. That quick response bought me enough time for my friend to get me to the ER.

We waited in the ER for about an hour before getting seen by a nurse. She opened the tourniquet, took pressure off, and she got sprayed, shin exposed, artery wide open. She tried to clean it a bit the we out the pressure back on. Then we sat in the hallway to wait for a doctor.

The ER doc said they weren’t equipped to stop the bleeding. At this point I’m getting dizzy and shaky cause the shock was wearing off. Very nervous. They said they weren’t outfitted to handle that kind of bleeding, so they didn’t want to dress it. They spent some time debating whether to gamble and try to close it themselves, or spend hours transferring me to a severe trauma surgeon in another hospital.

Finally, one doctor made the call. He joked I was holding up the patient line. He opened the tourniquet, cleaned the wound, and stitched the artery, deep tissue, fascia, and everything back together, inside and out. Two hours and several injections of antibiotics and pain killers later, I was stitched up and stable.

I’m home now. Stuck in bed, leg elevated. Can’t walk or move much. The pain didn’t hit until this morning and it’s unbearable to be honest. Never had anything like it. The doctors said I’m incredibly lucky.

Still waiting to see if I’ll need surgery, depending in how the nerves and tissues heal, and how bad the nerve damage is. Had a nice house call today to reassess and clean and get more pain killers and antibiotic injections. They said fortunately it was a very sharp knife, so the nerves may reconnect smooth. There’s a lot of parts of my leg that numb out randomly, and some drop foot when I try to move, but I’m optimistic it will heal well. Not too much bleeding so the artery seems good. Just monitoring for infection and trying to manage pain and inflammation now.

No swimming, no jiu-jitsu, no walking for a while. But I’m really grateful for the helpful visitors, my neighbors, the support, and especially the friends who stayed calm under pressure and saved my life.

Anyway, accidents happen. Going as well as can be. I’m definitely going to invest some more time into emergency prep, and I think it's worthwhile for everyone to consider learning some basics too. If you have any suggested material on this please send it 🤙

Good Morning Nostr! Today starts my 14 day notice at my old job and will begin switching to my new one.

Hopefully everything goes well.

you will find chaos and ⭕️

Good Night Legends 🫡 🐶 😴

Good to have you!

I dislike the Republican Party

I dislike the Democrat Party.

Both are controlled by the same people, this is what people don’t understand.

We are all being played for suckers.

We need to stop acting like it’s us V.S them, that’s what the state wants not the people.

Most people on both sides just want peace and prosperity.

It’s an endless cycle orchestrated by puppeteers that play both sides.

If you are a Democrat, you are brainwashed, if you are MAGA you are brainwashed.

WAKE UP NEO!

I Believe selling your Nostr account is impractical and morally wrong, it voids all meaning and trust to people.

I have received an offer to potentially purchase my old Uno NPUB, which I turned down without a second thought.

This is nothing against the person who offered, they are cool, a good friend, and don’t think it would be used maliciously, however I am not here for publicity or personal financial gains, and I believe that it is wrong to do ethically as well.

People follow you because they find value in what you share, this kind of lets people who support you down as well and causes confusion.

When I first joined Nostr as many know, I ran my LightX account for a while, coming from X/Twitter and following a lot of the people there, I did come here for attention, I admit that, it’s true, I wanted clout on the internet.

I ran giveaways and stuff of sats to try and get attention, it worked but not in a good way, many of the methods were viewed by many as shady, and they were right.

I got called out for it a lot and I rage quit, people told me back then I should have sold that account too for profit.

I have come a very long way since joining and my views and morals have changed, I have come to love Nostr as a place where we can express ourselves and have a good time, rather than a means to personal gains.

Which is why I have tried to put everything I can into this community now, as I feel I was a burden to it then.

Many of you know this story already, but many probably don’t.

I want to be completely honest and open about it.

I switched to this NPUB as a fresh start, not from my community but in hopes of starting a new path as well and continuing as I have this past year.

Thank you all, I love this community, I am not going anywhere and I will FIGHT to protect it always.
