Lately I see a lot of fear and FUD about bitcoin, but when I think about it long term, this is a technology for the advancement of human freedom and prosperity. No amount of MSTR selling or liquidity problems is going to stop an idea whose time has come #bitcoin
I used to despise the people who posted yearly about their music choices, but here I am. You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain 🤷🏻♂️
Seasonal cashflow is difficult to manage in agriculture. Crops like hellebores really help out during the thin winter months. We’re looking forward to beginning harvesting in a few weeks #flowers #hellebores
I was informed yesterday of being elected to the Certified American Grown board of directors. I’ve never been one for politicking, but I’m hoping to at least explain Triffin’s dilemma and why it means the # of American farmers must continue to decrease in this monetary system. If I can orange pill another flower farmer then I’ll consider that icing on the cake, but the overall goal is to bring some awareness about the struggles in American agriculture. We can’t blame imports and off-shoring on the people in other countries, we have to look at the system we operate in and ask why have domestic farmers not been able to compete? #bitcoin #agriculture #policy
Brought the new assistant to the farm yesterday. I think she approves of the job we’re doing so far, the green hellebores here were her favorite #flowers #hellebores #dogsofnostr
Took some time off work the day after thanksgiving to visit the farm with the puppy. Here’s a shot of our hellebores popping up. Seeing new growth emerge from the cold and rain is satisfying, especially so with these plants which are growing and thriving when everything else is going dormant until spring #flowers #nostr #hellebores #christmasrose
Something about Nostr feels more sincere than other social networks. Maybe it’s the fact that most interactions are with strangers, yet many of these strangers share some common core beliefs and values. Who can say, but I’ve sure gotten a lot of insight from other accounts, particularly the homestead community. I can’t say I get this same kind of education from another platform anywhere else
Big things are coming soon at the farm. Here’s a new planting we made this year of hellebores. #Bitcoin has taught us a low time preference, and this here is one example. The plants take over 3 years to become fully mature and produce substantially. It’s a big upfront investment but one that will pay off over the long term
Here is some of our ranunculus starting to sprout. We plant in plastic Dutch crates to avoid gopher and water logging problems. With any luck of a mild and sunny winter we may have flowers to sell for Valentine’s Day, but more than likely these guys will start producing in March #flowers #flowerstr
I have a simple idea to fix the whole cost of living crisis in America, anyone making under $100,000 pays zero income tax. I feel like this is a pretty easy sell politically (especially with the millennials/gen Z who make up the largest voting block), maybe it will catch on
Love all of this and have had the exact same experience in my life. Lead by example, treat people the way you want to be treated, and live a good life is the best way to bring people to bitcoin. People follow positive people

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. -Marianne Williamson
