Sorry not a very clear photo. A jumping spider species that was in my house. Photo from a few years ago. image
A few beads from a small collection that I have. Some dating from 7-9th Century AD and a couple are likely 19th Century. Top left bead is made from opalized palm wood(Fish Tail Palm species) and attributed as a Pumtek Bead from what is now Myanmar region. The rest are glass beads. image
I just had a thought that make me feels dumb. I've never thought about this before......Doesn't a cork tree die after the bark is harvested? If not why? Most trees will die if you even cut a ring around the whole bark so stripping the whole bark of cork seems a death sentence for the tree. 🧐
I don't remember anyone reading or commenting on this note from last year. It will make many uncomfortable. Again it's not where I'd like to see what Bitcoin is. I remain committed to self custody. "Holy Shit. Look what's happened now" should not be an emotion. The attempt to seize our corn will continue. Be prepared. I would not be surprised to learn that Warren and her army, while seemingly motivated by spite and resentment, are actually somehow aligned with/funded by some of the groups interested in the custody game.

Across the whole island POS terminals in shops, many ATMs and internet related infrastructure all grind to a halt. SAFE internet cable is the South Africa to Kochi(India) and Malaysia link that runs across the Indian Ocean.
SAFE marine internet cable damaged. Very poor connection here. How's the connection in SA, Saffers? I can't find any useful news about the cable damage.🧐
Saffers and E Africans how's your internet? Trying to find info on the SAFE cable damage. #asknostr
"A person who has been seduced by the consumer value system, whose identity is dissolved in an amalgam of the accouterments trappings of mass civilization, and who has no roots in the order of being, no sense of responsibility for anything higher than his own personal survival, is a demoralized person. The system depends on this demoralization, deepens it, is in fact a projection of it into society." Vaclav Havel
Last sections of a translation of "Document Number Nine" that was circulated within the Party in 2012/2013. It was possibly leaked by Gao Yu who was given 7 years jail for leaking state secrets. Wonder if Elon will publicly and righteously comment on it. 😜 "3. Unwavering adherence to the principle of the Party’s control of media. The [principle of the Party’s control of media] stems from our political system and the nature of our media. We must maintain the correct political direction. We must firmly hold fast to the principle of the media’s Party spirit and social responsibility, and that in political matters it must be of one heart and mind with the Party. We must persist in correct guidance of public opinion, insisting that the correct political orientation suffuse every domain and process in political engagement, form, substance, and technology. We must give high priority to building both the leadership and rank and file in the sphere of media work. We need to strengthen education on the Marxist perspective of media to ensure that the media leadership is always firmly controlled by someone who maintains an identical ideology with the Party’s Central Committee, under General Secretary Xi Jinping’s leadership. 4. Conscientiously strengthen management of the ideological battlefield. When facing sensitive events and complex puzzles in the ideological sphere, we should implement the principle that the people in charge assume responsibility and use territorial management. We must reinforce our management of all types and levels of propaganda on the cultural front, perfect and carry out related administrative systems, and allow absolutely no opportunity or outlets for incorrect thinking or viewpoints to spread. Conscientiously implement the “Decision of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress on Strengthening Information Protection on Networks,” strengthen guidance of public opinion on the Internet, purify the environment of public opinion on the Internet. Improve and innovate our management strategies and methods to achieve our goals in a legal, scientific, and effective way."
