Classic Florida Pic. On the edge of the everglades, guy on the dock fishing...the black dot on the watter is the head a of big gator, wish I would have got it side ways to show size. Great sunset. Great walk. Snakes, gators around, bushes moving all over...keep me on my toes. GN.

Randomly checking nostr to see what things are new...and there are weird things all the time here 😂. You can just stay weird.

You can just enjoy a sunset.

GM, In Spanish, we have a saying: "Cuando el río suena, es porque piedras trae," which is similar to "Where there's smoke, there's fire." I’m not all in on BTC, not because I don’t want to, but because I don’t have much to invest in it currently. However, I do my part with what I can. Regarding the Ross Ulbricht case, I tried to inform myself as much as possible, and this episode of @Guy Swann was really helpful. Now, with the U.S. starting this national reserve of seized assets, like the ones from Ross, and considering the very high likelihood that his case is, at the very least, partially framed in many areas, national powers, corporate power, etc. , all seeking a piece or control over BTC. In, well, questionable ways (like a president and his wife realizing just unfounded crypto trash!?). It all just keeps pointing to positive trends regarding the seriousness of its relevance. The timing, with possible wars, is prime time for BTC’s value to rise. The U.S. government appeals to populism, nationalism, and the constant new attempts to regain relevance. Very interesting times, and I am amazed at the role Bitcoin will play in the coming years ahead of us. I am thankful for Nostr, which continues to provide more and more insight to sideliners like me, who are just absorbing as much knowledge as we can while we consider our best way forward.

GM I can't believe the news today Oh, I can't close my eyes and make it go away How long, how long must we sing this song?

A nation that has lost its way many many decades ago. Sad. It has pivoted from left to right and right to left so many times, that has forgotten that there is actual right and wrong. You do not deal "cards" with the wrong, you do not call evil, good. Neither good, evil. You stand by your principle and pay a dam dear price for it. But you do it because it's the right thing to do. There is always opportunity for diplomacy, and there is always the fork in the road when diplomacy is dressed in a web of lies, to make it more appealing to the masses. When the masses have bought into that narrative and are incapable of calling out bad behavior, lies, and falsehood. But just praise equally well and honorable executed actions, the same as untruthful founded ones, just the same because that's what their "party" is doing...or that's "the best for MY country". That is the moment you know your party has become another cult. Then morals have been broken. Then the line that divided good from evil in our hearts is blurred, that line is in every heart, and is a very thin one. Dark times ahead....but also if you hold faith in Christ, you know the end of the story, you also know your alliance is with the ONE man sitting on the throne, with your one and ONLY citizenship in heaven. So if you are indeed free in Christ, do not take offense in your popular or unpopular political party, leader, or country, call them out all just the same in the Light of what you know as the TRUTH.

GM, all house getting sick 🤒😷 right now, buckling up for a hard week ahead!!

GM nostr!.... Does any body remember the official nostr video that was on the nostr website,,I belive it was nostr.com at least year and half to two years ago? Older guy in a garage talking about how people were bootstrapping this thing. I just can't seem to find it anymore.

GN, very tired...installed new OS on the laptop. First thing, get my password manager set up, 2) Access email, 3) Open @Alby Hub and set new Extension with keys and nwc, 4) Open nostr. Sleep well!

I have no problem calling the good things Trump does, good. And neither have a problem calling the bad things he does, evil, why so many Christians have this problem baffles me, it's border line cult, and I belive the right is falling just as the left did, in a cult behavior. Dangerous. Want to bring back industrial progress within the U.S soil, by all means. Want to be a good nation leader, yes. Want to achieve this by populism,lies and being a bully. Evil. simple. And I do not stand by it. Free thinkers should think freely and criticism should be for good and evil. A short note from an article I wrote some weeks ago. "Blindly accepting lies is morally wrong; motives do not matter more than truth. As moral beings, we are called to follow the truth, not lies. This should be basic common ground. Unwavering support for your elected officials, when they boldly lie to your face, especially if you know it is a lie, borders on cultish behavior. Not even trying to find the truth in their claims because you "mostly agree with their policies" is not much different. "The truth will make you free" is, in fact, a biblical reality that goes beyond the immediate context of Christ making you free. Although that is the ultimate and prophetic meaning, it is also a universal moral guide that should lead us to love light and truth, not darkness and lies."
