So much to do... ...don't know where to start.

I'm enjoying the bare bones simplicity of "playing" HiveGrove. It's my kind of game: simple concept, easy to play, do it if you wish, or not.

Recently did some sweet pea picking. Like eating candy.

I was recently impressed with the vibrant color of this plant, evidently it's Bluebead (clintonia borealis).

I don't understand why you would trade on a prediction of what you think the price of bitcoin will be using something like Kalshi. Isn't that what just buying actual bitcoin is?

Buzz app and Hive blockchain Twitter founder Jack Dorsey has been popping up in the tech/bitcoin news cycle in the past year. Here's a quick recap: While heading Twitter, he initiated Bluesky (2019) then set it up as a separate entity. 2 After Twitter (2021 & 2022), he moved over to a lead role at Bluesky. Then he left Bluesky (... Bridged via Hostr at

Peter Schiff is now unknowongly admitting #bitcoin is better than #gold in portability and acceptability by touting "tokenized gold." But he's neglecting that (a) you cannot verify that the gold behind the token is actually pure 24k so you must trust that it is, (b) you must trust that the token is actually backed by it, (c) the gold does not physically move when "transferred" but stays where it is, and (d) whomever physically holds that gold can have it physically locked down or seized. Gold is great, of course, but has these weaknesses above. He's learning that bitcoin improves upon, or flat out solves, them all.

Sunday we went to an installation service for a new pastor in the church. Twelve other pastors were there to support, guide, and pray for the newcomer. It was very nice and followed by a nice dinner. Sitting at our table was a young woman with her boyfriend and family. She was alluding to how hard it is in college and all the work... She asked her mother, "Have you ever gotten up at 6:30 in the morning in the middle of winter? " Her mother looked at her a bit stunned and simply said, "Yes." Mom looked over at me with a "What kind of question was that?" look. I was thinking the same thing and said, "6:30 is sleeping in late." Her mother added, "I've already got an hour in by then." The daughter then qualified 6:30am as early for college students. But I'm not buying it. I recall getting up at 5am, after working the night prior, so as to move my car out of the parking lot because parking tickets started at 6am. I'm thinking this is a generational thing. But I'm getting tired of hearing from young people "how tough things are today" and how the older generation ruined it for them and how it's so different now. Its always been tough, for everyone. On a typical day for me, the alarm goes off at 4:44am. I'm often awake prior. I'm on my feet by 5, on my bicycle by 6 pedaling to work. Get up at 6:30? That's sleeping in. And oh, if that wasn't irksome enough, I had a cheeseburger all loaded up, looking delicious, and ready to take home. I could have eaten it there, but didn't want to stuff myself. I'd enjoy it as a later night snack. I went to turn in my dirty silverware, and when I returned to the table a whole 30 seconds later, someone had cleared the table, including my beautiful cheeseburger! I had not taken one single bite and it got tossed! Argh! Otherwise, great day.

Though my nostr-mastodon (nostrdon) bridge seems down (and I simply cannot get mostr to work), that's ok. It's OK because my nostr-hive bridge (hostr) is working great. (Knock on wood!)

BTC Dashboard

Bitcoin Live Dashboard — Price, Hashrate, Halving & On-Chain Data

Real-time Bitcoin data: live price, hashrate security wall, halving countdown, Lightning Network capacity, Fear & Greed, MVRV ratio, dominance and ...

is an impressive #bitcoin dashboard. Looks like lots of pipes to keep running over time, but for now its great.

I'm going to miss soccer/futbol now and I'm not even a soccer/futbol guy.

Bitchess

You can play chess against either the #bitcoin or #ethereum blockchains, or watch them play one another. Pretty geeky, hah!

X degrees of Y Something weird occurred to me yesterday. I was writing something family oriented and was doing some internet digging.

I hope this Clarity act gets passed. I know the latest hurdle du jour is "ethics," led by Sen. Warren, of course. I respect that she apparently is also against government officials benefiting from stock trades. Good for her. But her track record suggests that she's mostly just trying to stall, delay, and is grandstanding for her name in the media. I hope the act passes. It would be progress and this is the road that nations will eventually go down, whether the US leads the way or not. I feel it's better when the US leads.

For some reason, I find this 1 satoshi zap both technically amazing that such a small tip can even be made and hilarious that it's in reply to "Zap big". #Bitcoin is awesome.

I just saw this little fellow hunkering down on the path. I raced right by him on my bike, he never budged. I stopped, went back to check on him. A storm went through last night and I think he either got blown from the tree or feathers soaked, or both. He didn't look injured, just laying low. I've heard it's okay to gently move a fledgling to a safe spot and they're usually okay. He seemed fine, and safe enough (though totally vulnerable to predators) so I decided to leave him as is rather than terrorize the little buy by picking him up. Google tells me: This young bird appears to be a swallow fledgling, possibly a species like the Purple Martin or Bank Swallow. If the bird is not injured, it is best to leave it alone, as its parents are likely nearby.
