 I’m in central South Carolina.

I’ve been trying to post pictures since Friday morning but I don’t have enough signal to upload them 

My dad had SEVEN trees fall on one 30ft section of power lines. Me & my dad have cut THIRTY-FIVE fully grown pine trees since Friday. 

100-250 year-old oak trees completely ripped out of the ground every 3 houses 

I have not talked to a single person that knew this storm would do this. I’m pretty disconnected from corporate media but I never heard a peep nostr:note1mlc40x4jsa3hd2j8jva5rq6n2txqdjggtjn5zvk85ldjx8f48e6sx35ujs 
 Anyone know of any stacking methods for firewood when you don’t want to build another tin roof structure ?

We’re getting TONS of extra firewood from this storm, but no room to store. I may just throw a tarp over a pile but I’ve seen odd stacking methods on YT in the past just can’t remember any of the names

 Exactly what I was looking for, thank you 
 Lmao that’s pretty much my current setup which is full of wood already 
 Thank you and Mr. @AVERAGE_GARY 
 Thanks, I will probably stack them on bricks. No trees near my house though which I’m thankful for! South Carolina is in absolute shambles right now, trees on the ground EVERYWHERE 
 The Walmart in my town didn’t have a backup generator so they’re now throwing out all their food 
 It is TOUGH being the only ‘survival nut’ in your family. I’ve lugged around my generator to 3 houses, pulled out 7 fridges and chopped up about 20 pine trees… oh and picked up 20 gallons of pears & apples 

What a long ass day 
 I am! We got slammed last night!

 Nostr - what are your thoughts on plagiarism? Real crime or fiat practice? 
 Copy one person it’s plagiarism, copy a hundred it’s research 

Sums it up for me , information wants to spread freely 
 Crediting is important and the cool thing to do but I don’t think it’s a crime if you don’t 

Pretty much everything we think & say is copied from others

Will he talk about #bitcoin? 👀 
 I hope not he doesn’t seem to get it to me 
 I didn’t know that. I admittedly haven’t listened to him much, but I’ve disagreed with many of his public comments in recent years 
 Great for eating. I grow these every year as a survival crop, super easy to grow here in the south 
 It is a nice color, especially the ones with the yeast dusting on them

 Quite a few of us do know & care, but we never get a candidate that embodies those principles.

 GM Nostr, I found one of the strangest mushrooms I’ve ever foraged yesterday. 

Aborted Entoloma. 

I found the developed mushroom to be better, but the aborted version was good. It’s got a little bitterness to it, gonna make a ranch dressing today to drown it out a bit.

 You are correct, I only ate the non aborted versions that were directly attached to the aborted versions 
 You just have to get out there consistently & learn one at a time
