Either I'm not online enough or my focus on decentralized solutions is paying off because I don't usually notice when these "internet outages" happen. Kind of like the government being shut down.-Can't say I really noticed that either.

Wild Northern Lights!

I think I've waited long enough for Fold to get a credit card. I may take the plunge for the Gemini credit card. any thoughts? anyone want to send me a referral code?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoLTPcD1S4Q I just like this one a lot.

I am enjoying the #OpportunityCost app. Give it a try. It does make you think.

Just a few photos from the garden. Very excited to maybe get a decent amount of grapes this year. And for the garlic-from-seed people- do you save the tiny little garlic looking things from the bloom too, or just seeds? #garlicstr #grownostr #gardenstr

https://bitbonkers.netlify.app/ this is kind of fun and mesmerizing.

Too warm to run the big miner. Just got my nostr:nprofile1qyv8wumn8ghj7urjv4kkjatd9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wsqzpv0prpvgffk3fwluuwyeedf7sxp6mhny9uny6rl57969xu0qvy6vhuwgqp BitAxe up and running. How exciting. Wish me luck! 🤞 😄

Again shipping $15 for one and $20 for 2. (I will convert to sats at the time of order)

Here are a 2 to choose from. I have more. nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqjxkasltfz8d9ya40aze3d2cls6yvlm3r2wzneac4cukgwvj9wu8sm9hxx4 These ones are 29000 sats each. $15 for shipping one and $20 for shipping 2 to the continental United States.

So far, I can't say enough good things about nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0s0pfy4z 🧡 and their support team. I have (I think) finally gotten my Alby Hub figured out on my nostr:nprofile1q9z8wue69uhnvmr9dp58jernwf6xsct8d45hxdn4w5m8gatrdej8v7nhxa3h2cnsw94ksanc09unw6n0d9hkxdp4d44hxu35v4skgtn0de5k7m30qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uqzq44xkafh8j8hhy79809wsmv0lw46nu4pkwqjyp20ekml80mytde8phfu08 server . Even though I am not at all technical, I am the "Uncle Jim" for my family. Alby Hub is a handy tool for creating wallets for friends and family for a little fun sats. And you don't need a Start9 to take advantage of it. Admittedly, I am probably not scratching the surface of all it can do. I would recommend the Alby Hub for anyone who is in a similar role with their family.

I thought I had fixed my wallet issue, because now I can zap others. I suspect not-can someone try zapping me?

I've entered the phase where I name my animals after my favorite bitcoin podcasters, wallets, etc. Meet Lightning and Lopp. nostr:nprofile1qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wshsz8thwden5te0dehhxarj9e3xjarrda5kuetj9eek7cmfv9kz7qpq7u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrquyd27a Sorry, I can't name anything this cute nostr:nprofile1qywhwumn8ghj7ct8v4h8gmmjv9hxwefwdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9uq37amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dxqezuer0wfskvctrw3hhy7fwdaexwtcqypl0tud32m49ul5lndu87723ktgsramcqct84r2yky2x3ggwplxjwdhdpzr -maybe I can give a rooster that handle.

Does anyone know why I can zap others from Primal app but not on primal on desktop? I changed away from an Alby hub and now am using the primal app wallet. I must be doing something wrong. 😕 I'm also pretty sure I can't get zapped.

New baby goats today.

https://opsecswag.com/ so much cool swag. Some of the links are broken. Some go to sites that don't ship to where I live. 😕

Just got this in my inbox. I thought I'd share: The devil’s wellness plan A poem by Casey Means, MD (with some rhyming help from AI) If I were the devil, I’d ditch the disguise— No pitchfork, no flames, just marketing lies. I’d feed you poison, call it a “snack,” And label you “elitist” when you want your health back. I’d flood the media with videos of threats, Distract and scare and create non-stop stress. I’d poison the soil, then praise the “yield,” While destroying the topsoil in every field. I’d bury research, seal the locks, Then line you up for seventy-three shots. I’d cancel critical thinking, stop dissenters with bots, Then jab your kids without a second thought. I’d shame the sunlight and worship shade, And block the rays the holy sun made. Then sell you D in plastic packs, To fill the hole from all you lack. I’d flood your nights with dopamine, From endless scrolls on little blue screens. I’d wreck your sleep and sell it back: “Sweet dreams” with Lunesta and a hundred sleep hacks! I’d break your trust in ancient ways, And mock the moon and cycles’ phase. I’d push the Pill and dull women’s flame, Till womanhood forgot its name. I’d give boys man-boobs through toxic food, And call masculine strength aggressive and lewd. I’d whisper, “You’re too much, too loud,” And shame men’s fire as something rude. I’d flood your screens with porn on demand, Till touch means pixels, not holding a hand. I’d teach women that cooking is something to dread, That birth needs control and a hospital bed. I’d destroy the Village, sell you “smart-phones,” And push Reels that make mothers feel they’re completely alone. I’d call the Sacred just a trend, And glorify materialism without any end. From kids to elders, I’d fry their brains, Depression, pain, and dementia their chains. How can you fix things when you can’t think straight? But don’t worry: Big Pharma will medicate. I’d put processed poison in the School Lunch, Let taxpayers pay while the children get sunk. We’d say that cereal was breakfast of choice, Packed with sugar and dyes to zap our life-force. I’d fill the oceans with microplastics and trash, And poison rivers with pesticides and coal ash. I’d make you think that composting was hard, And that you need Roundup to murder every weed in your yard. I’d fill the air with infertility-chemicals galore: “Glade Plug-Ins” and “Lysol” as acceptable norms. If I were the devil, I’d play it smart: No need for chains—I’ll just clog your heart! Keep you comfy, fed, and blind— Too tired to seek, too numb to find. If I were the devil, I’d tax you to no end— Too broke to rise, too exhausted to defend. No need for war or guns or screams— Just sugar, screens, and broken dreams. If I were the devil, I’d never show— I’d simply coax “yes” from your mouth when your heart screams “NO.” No need for fire, just silent control, I’d promote self-abandonment that fractures your whole. I’d convince your species it’s small and weak, Too scared of your power, too scared to speak. I’d help you forget you are a soul and pure light— A miracle of God trading Enlightenment for likes. I’d make you forget you’re One with all things, An eternal note in the symphony the universe sings. I hope you’ll stay distracted by my noise and my spin, Never suspect I’m the one who is weakest within. For if you believed the limitless love that you are, You’d rise from my grip and entertain me no more. No fight, no fire — just your peace and your breath, And I’d melt in a flash, disarmed by your depth.
