My wife is Carribean and that word is not off-limits in this house.

Obviously I don't call her that as an epithet or anything but she certainly doesn't freak out if I say it while speaking informally.

She knows as well as I do that a word only has the power you give it. If you give a word undue power like nigger has been given, then it controls you more than you control it. Words are tools too be weilded responsibly or irresponsibly by the user. Conversely, as a listener, it's up to you to choose how another's words affect you. If you fly off the handle every time someone says a specific word, you're giving that word power over you.

That being said, it's maybe not appropriate to say it in polite company, and certainly not to any extreme or as an insult as it has been used in the past.  It's certainly something my daughter will learn about at some point, but I want to instill a sense of robustness and mental toughness in her so that when some cheeky guy on nostr says nigger that she doesn't fly off the handle because that would honestly be very silly.

She will need to learn about it though being a mixed kid in an area where she may be the only black/white mix. There are plenty of native/white families and even a few other black families but we're the only black/white family.

This is why I follow you and I haven't muted that word. It brings forth this kind of philosophical thought in me because of my own family situation. There's a delicate balance here somewhere and I think Nostr it's the only place left where this discussion can even be had.


I cannot disagree.


I'll be honest, it's very difficult to chastise you for that when your profile photo is a pair of magnificent boobs.

Well played ma'am.


I refuse to use Spotify.

I torrent the music I own in CD already and then put that on my phone. Only reason I torrent is because a lot of my CD's are no longer listenable from wear.

Always own your music.


That's a winning smile!

I'm just a basic dude myself.

Can you please let Canada know?


Yes, I understand comepletely what you're getting at here.

You're very confident in what you're saying and you've got conviction. You've got an unorthodox approach which can be sometimes confusing at first glance online but I would be that that would clear up in a real world conversation.

Despite not always agreeing with what you've shared (or maybe not understanding your approach) I value and respect that confidence and conviction. Your approach gives me pause, but I know that it's best to look closer to see if I can sort out what you're getting at.

Either way, great interaction overall.

🌹😊


Right!?

They're super cheap too!

The Q1 is a fun little pen. I wouldn't pull them out to write every letter I compose but I could see using them for some quick notes or bringing them with me on a flight.

I would highly recommend picking one up. I might suggest a fine or medium nib as they seem to write more smoothly with less skipping.

I'm partial to the demonstrator.


I try not to generalize anymore which I'm not great at but getting better.

Just because people are broadly similar doesn't mean that each individual is the same as the next.

My failed relationships are actually 100% my fault, or at least I can go back and figure a point in time when I should have ended things but didn't. Even though often the women in these situations ended up being the morally reprehensible ones, I don't blame them ultimately because to do so leaves no room for my own learning and I certainly don't judge all women based on the actions of a few.

We learn along the way. We forgive and move on.


That's the best of a bad situation.


Well thank you!

I find you to be somewhat confounding in the best way.

Sometimes I find offense in what you've said, but I typically look a bit deeper as offense is the mechanism by which we examine the lessons others have to teach us.

You are valuable and I'm glad we've connected here. I hope to learn much from you!


Love this. Have some sats!


Inspiration looks different for everyone. I find the strongest of mine among people who are so passionate about what they do that they accidently become teachers of their craft.

It's true. I just take things too literally to start but I usually smarten up eventually.


Nobody who has any sense thinks things are 50/50.

I've stopped listening to anyone who broadly thinks relationships should look one way or another.

I think the colloquialism "Behind every great man is his wife" sums it up nicely.

Men and women are better together than they are apart and everthing seems to work best when the requisite love, support and respect are given where necessary.


I mean, fair enough I suppose.

That's a good point.

I don't believe the narrative though that the megafauna were hunted to extinction. Considering that there were mammoths flash frozen with undigested food in their stomachs, that's simply observably untrue.

I tend to think there was a cataclysm that caused the bulk of the more recent extinctions.


Good point!

I think this is kinda it for me on legacy social media platforms. Tired of getting burned.

Still managing others’ social media, so can’t leave the eco system.

But will definitely be helping others get more into a nostr standard over time. (New social media manager biz cards are purple and orange btw 🧡💜 and oh the timing)

Not being able to post a link to a simple playlist I made of songs from the podcast is silly. It probably amounts to the Facebook algorithm deciding what I posted is “spam,” even though it’s NOT.

But the appeal process is at least 4 days. Even if Meta goes “our bad” and puts my playlist link back up, it will be days.

This is the throttling of information, regardless of what the information is. This is the silencing of the content of my preference.

And this is just what we know about. I imagine much of what I post doesn’t please the algorithm and is therefore never seen by friends and family on Meta. (Though my 13 yo niece likes all my stuff 🤣).

I made that playlist to share the music from the 2nd episode of my podcast. Those artists work hard! Their music should be heard. The only place I am confident now I can share music without it being taken down is Nostr or the website I own. And of course the podcast, which is only in the valueverse.

Fine. That will have to be enough. I’m tired of playing these reindeer games.

It's been a struggle recently. I'm doing my best to be a good husband, father, son etc. but we're struggling financially (errors in my past, 100% my fault) and it's really starting to get me down sending basically everything I earn to banks and other debts. I think that's really what pushed me to actually make the commitment versus casually studying and surrounding myself with other Christian people.

I simply can't do this on my own. I can work, earn more, create value here and all that but at the end of the day I need to have faith in Christ.

Nothing in particular other than simply praying out loud with the pastor. Having him present as a form of accountability really made it real for me.


I grew up in a relatively conservative United Church (which is no longer a church) so I've always adhered to the values as well, at least loosely like most modern pseudo Christians and agnostics do.

There was mostly only doctrine there and no active pursuance of Christ.

I have been feeling like something has been missing for a long time. I started listening to Jordan Peterson's Biblical lectures back when he began tgose and that opened to door to further study on my part.

Since then I've been seeking the truth and that has led me to God's word.

I want to pursue as many translations as I can to get as close to it as possible.  I'm not a maximalist of any specific translation.

I'm continuing my journey and understanding of the word of God and I simply aknowledge that I believe in Christ and what he stands for.


https://i.nostr.build/OEjetrfsTdd3cTey.jpg
I've considered myself Christian for a while but today I was saved.

I made the commitment in front of a local pastor and he's committed to guiding me as I go. He gave me this Bible and signed and dated it.

It feels good man.

I wanted to share this with my Nostr frens. 😊

Equality will never exist between the sexes. Men will always treat women differently than other men and women will always handle men differently than their fellow women.

Both men and women have the same intrinsic value as humans but they will always and permanently be valued for different things.

I think fiat dating apps are on the way out, rendering a Bitcoin based app useless. Part of that is the novelty being gone and part of it is algorithms messing the whole thing up.

A nostr-based app is better but nothing beats good old-fashioned meetups. Then you just need the courage to talk to the few girls that go to these and then actually do that.

The bonus is if you snag yourself a Bitcoin woman early, her value goes up over time not unlike the Bitcoin you both likely have stashed away.

Yes. There is literally a plan to sell out Canada for cheaper labor. Tim Hortons, McDonalds among others want cheap labor and to avoid raising their prices.

I love this.


Sometimes I run into a tech guy on Twitter, who talks about how cypherpunk he is.

I’m just a financial analyst and investor, so that’s cool to hear. The more cypherpunks, the better. I like to fund cypherpunks.

But then I look around, and he’s not active on Nostr for over a year. He’s only active on centralized social media.

So then I am confused at how supposedly cypherpunk he is. Is he really that reliant on centralized media? Often, it turns out yes. If not, what other cryptographic proof does he have for his work?

As Nostr increasingly gains network adoption, it becomes weirder when I analyze why someone who is techie is highly active on Twitter but not at all on Nostr.

Yes they did.


Lol


I've thought about those but I have not looked into them yet.

I'm not too worried about them as I have engineered the studio fairly precisely and know where my lights need to be. Plus 2×4's are cheaper!

It absolutely was! I figured this way I've got a bit of play if I need to mount another camera/light there.

The one directly over the desk will end up with a mount on it for sure.


It really does.

There have been so many discernable stages in my life that it's insane.

Last night I added a few crossbars to my studio setup so I could mount an overhead camera. The angle was intentional.

I figure if I'm going to do this video thing, I might as well get serious about it. I'm looking at a level of quality above your average. That and I tend to over-engineer things.

Anyways, maybe I'll do a proper penstream today? I shut off the small Bitcoin miner in my office for a little bit so the sound might not suck this time.

#penstr #letters #fountainpens #penstream


That's perfect, I would totally expect that.


That's a lovely error for everyone to be making!


Also, I would have guessed daughter, not granddaughter.


Fucking toilet seat! Brilliant!


Okay you get a zap for that laugh!


So cute you get a zap.

Also points for keeping her face a secret. I'm a big fan of that.


Yeah they do. They tend to lighten images a fair bit for various reasons.

Some of that is for printing as images need to be lightened so that they print properly.

Darker skin can also be tough to light well. I find that with my own wife and her family versus mine. You almost need to edit them seperately.

I'm just frankly not inclined to say "that's racism" like others might be. Maybe there's the occasional instance of that but I think print and lighting account for 90+% of it.


Sneaky!!!


Good morning!! 🌞💜🫂😁

Lies, it's all photoshop.

🤣🤣


Red and green combo is my favorite.

Your face is good.


Damn, she is BLACK black.

Although, hard to tell if legitimate, to look her up has you finding images of her where she is much lighter. Can't tell if she's that dark and she gets brightened for certain shoots, or if she's lighter and gets darkened for certain shoots.

Either way, good looking woman for sure.


I hope you're enjoying watching me!


Three people seriously watching me mess around with my setup? Bahaha


I'm also attempting to use it to create videos for uploading to various platforms. I've created a Rumble account, and I'm looking at some of the various decentralized platforms as well.

I'm trying to be efficient about it mostly.


Modifying my video setup so I can properly shoot higher quality videos.

OBS just isn't able to handle processing a high quality final video itself. Not the way I seem to be doing it anyways.

And yes, I've messed around with different settings, I just think it's a bit much for my now-older laptop to handle.

I'll shoot the footage and do the editing together in post. Typical workflow.

I'll probably do the livestreams the same way for now but I'm still not certain they're working well yet.

All part of the process I guess.

Just received this beauty today!

The Majohn Q1.

It's an eyedropper-filled pen with a massive capacity. It's also very stubby. I guess you would consider it a pocket pen, if you were inclined to carry this giant thing around.
https://i.nostr.build/ezz2A6C3JlherKL6.jpg
For being an Chinese pen, it writes VERY nicely, although for a fine nib, it sure writes a lot more like the TWSBI medium nib does. I have purchased another one of these and got it in a medium nib, so well we'll see how that one writes when the time comes.
https://i.nostr.build/rvcXOZdHmhVyZQvZ.jpg
I enjoy the extraordinary capacity and I've taken advantage of that by filling it with Murasaki-Shikibu Iroshizuku, one of my favorite inks. I love the idea of loading this thing to the brim with ink and then just writing with it until it runs out.
https://i.nostr.build/hahNMFXu8xSLD1rz.jpg
All-in these pens are sub $40 CAD which makes them an excellent starter pocket-pen if ypu don't mind a short, stubby and fat pen. Honestly, I find them charmingly funny.

As usual, awesome work!


Hi


I'll do my best. I feel terrible for the family. It's just awful.


I wasn't emotionally ready for this.


Yeah but that's okay. I'm thankful that not everyone is in a dangerous line of work like I am.

I'm also very thankful for my nostr frens. You guys make things a lot better.


The most important for sure.


It is. I feel awful for the family. His son is one of the haul truckers. You could often hear him praise his son for doing something well and the son saying "Thanks dad."

Thinking about that has me tearing up again.

This stuff really bothers me.


I feel terrible for the family.


Yeah it is. He was a loader operator. Cat 994K. Crazy machine, did not think that being the loading unit could be so dangerous.


I would be lying if I said I didn't tear up.

There's a family broken today and that hurts.


Does that dude just not have a lower half?

Like seriously, how does that even work?


One of my coworkers was killed at the mine last night.

I barely knew the guy and I'm in shock.

Hug your loved ones folks. You never know how long you have them.


That's not the only thing she makes...


Bahahahahaha definitely! I'll likely do another that I'll record. I failed to do so this time but that's why we do these early streams, so we can hammer out the dents!

Okay, when I say "They" I'm referring to at least the US, Canada and UK's governments. Canada has been getting hit hard in the past few years as well. I guess Germany is too.

Governments are scaling their use of this up for sure in the past few years.


They've been doing this since at least the 50's, they're just shifting the narrative because it's impossible to cover it up anymore. Critical mass had been reached in terms of those knowing what's going on.


Remember when nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx was talking about how none of us are ready to have the convo that we can’t be sure if a tweet is really coming from someone’s Twitter account. I remember https://i.nostr.build/h7nweGi9K7uYRvVY.jpg


It's funny that Twitter is so toxic despite all the moderation and censorship, while Nostr is always upbeat, constructive and friendly despite having none.


That moment that Mount Doom detonates and the fires spew out of the front entrance. We'll assume there's a back entrance as well.

I think it's funny. The haul trucks occasionally have new stickers in them so I decided to add some my own.

The Barbie movie was feminist propaganda for sure, but they accidentally created one of the most sympathetic male characters in a modern movie.

Ken just wanted Barbie to love him like he loves her. He goes out of his way to impress her and when they end up going to the real world he learns a bunch and takes over Barbie land to try to show Barbie how awesome he can be.

Most young men can empathize with that as many have been through a situation like that in their lives. I know I have.

And so I place the stickers.

This is a pet peeve.
Stop comparing every open-source project with a PROJECT TO BUILD MONEY.

Why do you think there are a gazillion shitcoin devs and like 100 Nostr devs and 10 relay operators?
Because developing money pays for itself!

Nostr software and infrastructure has to have a real use case and target market. Nostr has to do something concrete. It has to have a product that is _not itself_.

That is a much harder sell because it requires you to get money for something that is not money.

It strikes me tonight that a world where people have the leisure to argue about websockets or operating systems, programming languages and politics, music and money, is a pretty fucking awesome world.

Ha!

That's so interesting that you think that just because someone may or may not have left their own country, that they wouldn't understand the difference between a real image and a fake one.

I wouldn't have expected that level of sheer ego from you based on your usual postings.

For the record, I so understand the difference. Canada has more than it's fair share of absolutely breathtaking beauty.

It might be my internet connection, we've been having problems with our router as well so there might be an issue there.

Update!

I've revamped my Creatr profile! Although photography is still a passion of mine, my fountain pen notes seem to have struck a nerve on Nostr. I may still do some photography content here, but for now I think I can add more value to the Nostr community with my writing-oriented work.

I've made my tuers as cheap as I can. I think developing one's writing skill is important, but it shouldn't be restrictively expensive. I will develop some more detailed resources as I go, but for now I will offer some more thoughtful pen reviews, letter writing tips and pen suggestions where appropriate.

Feel free to join me in the craft of writing and collection of fountain pens as a hobby! I would love to have you along as we learn and develop our skills within the #penstr #letters #fountainpens and #artstr communities.

Very interesting! I wonder if you stepped up to a Lamy Safari or equivalent maybe you would find you like it enough to hold onto it longer?

I've honestly not tried the disposable pens.


You're my favorite pen as well.


Pimburattewa Tank in Sri Lanka, a marvel of ancient engineering, was constructed by King Parakramabahu I in the 12th century. This impressive structure was designed for water storage and irrigation, highlighting the sophisticated hydraulic systems developed by ancient Sri Lankan civilizations. https://image.nostr.build/b3e127bb01b99fe7d8f46dffc3b3907e4db8b4d2d412bb01225fabae56fff82e.jpg


Well I love that very much. Do you have a favorite pen?


I would love to see you start journalling! I've been doing it for a short while now and I'm very happy I have. Over time it'll tell a story that my kids could pick up one day and get to know me better than they might have otherwise.

So you might like an extra fine nib. There's typically more feedback with those that might suit you better than a nib that glides over the paper more.

That's super fascinating! I know of several people in my family who have a lot of our physical family genealogical stuff and I would love to go through it and start to compile it.

I'm certainly glad to have met you! Stay in touch! 😊


I think the element of handwriting that I love the most is that no matter how "good" or "bad" it is, it's yours. Nobody else has your handwriting and after you're gone, it could be one of the few things left over for your family.

Writing with a fountain pen has encouraged me to take efforts to "improve" my own handwriting as the experience of writing with one is much nicer than a rollerball. I've made a few small changes to start and we'll see where it goes from here.

Believe it or not, I would love to see your handwriting. I've had a few people send me images of their handwriting and it's a small gift that I quite enjoy.

This amazing photo was taken yesterday in Oklahoma. These cloud structures are called Mammatus
Mammatus give the sky a unique and threatening look. And for good reason, Mammatus clouds that often form below Cumulonimbus clouds always portend a severe thunderstorm. These clouds are particularly spectacular at sunrise and sunset.

I love how you phrase this like it's some kind of gotcha. I assure you it's not.

Inequality is inevitable and unavoidable. Prioritizing equality as the highest virtue shows a level of understanding of how the world works that is borderline childish.

People differ in their ability, intelligence, work ethic, interests, inclinations, priorities, output as well as every other measurable metric. You can engineer a society to flatten all of these out a much as possible and it turns out that people end up naturally diverging on their own, especially down the gender divide. See Scandinavia.

Your notes read like every other mid-twentysomething that's read Marx once, gone to a few feminist rallies and spent hours on Youtube watching some commentator or another "takedown right wing YouTube.". Your idealogical worldview is an unworkable one and I promise that reality will continue to function in a way directly opposite to it.

Now if you don't mind, I'm going to enjoy a nice dinner that my wife (who does not work) made and then play with my daughter (who is an actual girl) before bedtime. Have a lovely day!


I used to have one of those! As a child I'm almost certain I tried to jam two of the colors down the barrel more than once and eventually ruined it.

For multitasking there are few options better and none more efficient.

Excellent choice, but I can't promise I won't try to get you into a nice fountain pen as an addition to this already stellar choice!

Yeah, in Canada you're basically not allowed to carry something with the intent to defend yourself. I didn't even think that it could be used as a weapon, to me it's just a decoration for my keychain.

It's a foolish rule and I know many who ignore it, especially in rural areas where predatory animals are a real and present threat.


Yeah that's what the Midwife said as well.

I've thought about interviewing her and maybe some others and doing a bit of a documentary about it but I've never started that project.


Yes thank God you do.

In my conversations with our midwife, I've come to realize that a lot of healthcare for women has basically been the functional equivalent of some guy throwing his arms up in the air in exasperation saying "Fuck it, I don't know, cut it off maybe!?"

There's a long way to go but there are those of us who listen at least long enough to know when to step aside and when to take appropriate action.

My wife and I try our best and I try to be as  supportive and reasonable as possible for her when she needs that.


Welcome!! We're very glad you're here! I hope you find tremendous value during your time on Nostr!

Ye preachers of equality, the tyrant-frenzy of impotence crieth thus in you for "equality": your most secret tyrant-longings disguise themselves thus in virtue-words!

Fretted conceit and suppressed envy—perhaps your fathers' conceit and envy: in you break they forth as flame and frenzy of vengeance.


Lo, this is the tarantula's den! Would'st thou see the tarantula itself? Here hangeth its web: touch this, so that it may tremble.

There cometh the tarantula willingly: Welcome, tarantula! Black on thy back is thy triangle and symbol; and I know also what is in thy soul.

Revenge is in thy soul: wherever thou bitest, there ariseth black scab; with revenge, thy poison maketh the soul giddy!

Thus do I speak unto you in parable, ye who make the soul giddy, ye preachers of equality! Tarantulas are ye unto me, and secretly revengeful ones!

Everyday Carry: Fountain Pen Edition!

I've been interested in the everyday carry community (movement? group?) for a while now, I just didn't know how I would contribute to it!

I guess I'll just start posting then!

I know I need to upgrade some of my gear, and some of this may stay consistent because it's my work gear. My off-work- gear will be different for sure.

Anyways, here's what I've got so far:

- Rhodia N°12 Dotpad
- Amazon Ridge wallet knockoff
- Londo Leather Pen Slip
- LAMY Aion
- Sailor Tuzu
- MaJohn A2
- Keys
- Mastercraft boxcutter

I'm thinking I'll do my normal reviews, but then I'll do re-reviews at some point to update my experience with my various writing implements.

My opinions on some of my pens is shifting somewhat with increased use.

I think I'll aim fit those to be video reviews instead of just written.

This is an Amazon special.

Nothing crazy, just a cheaper leather slip for two pens. I mostly got it to protect my Sheaffer 300's, but I've had a few other pens in it for a bit.

I plan on getting a better quality dual pen slip at some point but I think I'll keep this cheaper one for work since I don't mind it getting beat up in my work bag.

Bad people hurt people with many types of weapons or none at all.

Does not mean they need to be banned, or legislated in any way.


Statistically, more bad guys are stopped with guns than innocent people.

No it doesn't. I've tired of the whole game.

Neither gender is evil but if you walk into life thinking that then you'll only see the bad things they do and come to that conclusion.

It's like thinking about a red car in traffic. Suddenly you'll see them everywhere.


Very true!


I don't know who need to hear this but the ability to create the reality that you want, is directly determined by your willingness to experience it’s opposite.

Staking Bitcoin will make you feel broke when its is actually making you rich.

Setting boundaries will make you feel alone but you are creating new healthy relationships.

Digging up your traumas will have you feeling broken while it is actually healing you.

Working out has you feeling weak while it is really making you strong.

Learning something new makes you feel dumb while it is making you more intelligent.

You have to be okay with being uncomfortable to truly achieve success.., YOU GOT THIS!

It's time to take a look at some paper!

These Rhodia pads are awesome! If you're into fountain pens or even if you're just looking for a nicer writing experience with your existing writing materials, these pads are a great choice! A lot of people who get into fountain pens don't realize that a third of the battle is actually the paper they're writing on. They don't realize there's a whole world of paper out there that suits their needs far better than regular notebook paper.
https://i.nostr.build/VjtZLozzvNaSwtqX.jpg
Generally, 80 gsm (grams per square metre) paper or higher is what you're looking for. This refers to heavier paper that takes fountain pen ink better than lighter papers do. Some have coatings and some are made of different kinds of materials. Vellum paper is typically higher quality for example.
https://i.nostr.build/Y75Pt2s38Yj9vwBd.jpg
My personal favorite pad is the N°16 Dot Pad. I prefer the 5.8"×8.3" size for my work bag, my personal letters to my family and just general note-taking or sketching. The dots are super helpful for line spacing or horizontal spacing as well! The quality is nice and the writing experience is good, even with my cheaper pens.
https://i.nostr.build/6fiivx6sKlVhF2Yp.jpg
I can't recommend these enough! I'll post some more notes on paper soon! I would like to take a closer look at some notebooks and a few different pads as well in the near future.

For now, check out Rhodia's offerings!

If you’re willing to zap a few sats I think a very small minority of existing followers can be brought over to Nostr.

A lot of people follow me on other platforms for real estate content and mainly ignore my Bitcoin/Orange pilling but they still have fomo about it.

So I offered first 20 people to follow and DM me on Nostr I’d zap them. (Maybe 1000 people saw my stories) I think about 30 people did it, I think 3 stuck around and only one actively posts.


One is better than zero!

Zaps are not the only quality signal. Replied and reposts also provide quality signal. Likes are garbage, and that is the krux of this issue and why Karnage posted this. But Karnage is too unsure of himself to tag me in this though even though it’s an air reply to posts I was making yesterday. I am sure of my take and have no problem calling him and others out directly. Liked are a relic of the ad-supported social platforms that pillage user data and feed you to advertisers. They are useless here except to inform the next version of algorithms that will manipulate you.
nostr:note1jldxxexywfs62fkanfa93754ur7fw9gnc5df752v8af4zn2sajlq0vjnzw


The idea that only zaps are quality signal is dumb.

This is like ignoring the vast majority of people who don't want money in their social interactions.

Imagine standing in a circle of friends and zapping each other 2 cents every time someone said something you agree with. This is just not how social interactions work. Money was never part of the social agreement.

Proof of work and all / actions speak louder than words / put your money where your mouth is... I get it, that has value and is absolutely true in other context, but not in social. It's a nice bonus, it's great to be valued with a payment for something you put effort into, but it can never replace free expression without the expectation of payment. Believe it or not, some people don't want money involved in their conversations.

That's not to say that you can't have it, but don't insist on only zaps. It's going to turn people away.


Whoah. That's cool.

Typically people who skew more towards psychopathic tendencies get into positions of power. Not really sure what to do about it.

The ancient form of "democracy" kept money away from political positions because they knew that corruption soon followed. I think something like that would definitely help.

People who can't tip the scales financially wouldn't have the same motivations. I believe they were also only able to hold position for a limited time. Probably half a dozen other culturally instantiated rules as well that might help us get things back on track a bit.

They inject cultural ideas, why can't we?

It's easy to label people abusive, far harder to prove that's the case. In an inflationary economy I would bet a lot of the abuse is motivated by the increased costs, not by an abusive person.

They're likely just trying to survive just like everyone else.

Some facts about bamboo:

1.Fast Growth: Bamboo is the fastest-growing plant in the world. It has been recorded at growing 47.6 inches in 24 hours. Some species can even grow over a meter per day under optimal conditions. A new bamboo shoot reaches its full height in less than a year.

2. Oxygen Release: A grove of bamboo releases 35% more oxygen than any other tree out there.

3. Carbon Dioxide Absorption: Bamboo absorbs carbon dioxide at a rate of 17 tons per hectare every year. It can act as a valuable carbon sink given how fast the plant grows.

4. No Fertilizer Required: Bamboo doesn’t need fertilizer to grow. It can self-mulch by dropping its leaves and use the nutrients to grow.

5. Drought Resistance: Bamboos are drought-tolerant plants. They can grow in the desert.

6. Wood Replacement: Bamboos can be harvested in 3-5 years compared to the 20-30 years of most softwood trees.

7. Building Material: Bamboo is incredibly strong and sturdy. It has been used as support for concrete as well as scaffolding, bridges, and houses.

8. Soil Stability: Bamboo has a wide network of underground roots and rhizomes that prevent soil erosion.

9. Natural Air Conditioner: Bamboo cools the air surrounding it by up to 8 degrees in the summer.

10. Invasiveness: Some species of bamboo, especially ‘running’ bamboos, can be invasive due to their extensive root systems, which allow them to spread rapidly. However, not all species are invasive, and with proper management, the environmental impact can be minimized.

By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast [them] down to hell and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; ... and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned [them] to destruction, making [them] an example to those who afterward would live ungodly; and delivered righteous Lot, [who was] oppressed by the filthy conduct of the wicked (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented [his] righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing [their] lawless deeds)-- [then] the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment, and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. [They are] presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries, whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, [and] will receive the wages of unrighteousness, [as] those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. [They are] spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you, having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart trained in covetous practices, [and are] accursed children. They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the [son] of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; but he was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man's voice restrained the madness of the prophet. These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. For when they speak great swelling [words] of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage. For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: "A dog returns to his own vomit," and, "a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire." - 2Pe 2:3-4, 6-22 NKJV

Okay so here is where I started on this little fitness journey of mine. I started this roughly the 13-14 of June while at work. I did very little in between as I was off work an I just haven't worked out a schedule for it yet while I'm off, I did a set on the 21 as I was on overtime, then from the 26th of June through today.

Started at 3 sets of ten squats, 5 sets of ten incline pushups, consistent stomach vacuums and crunches when I am able to while driving or the truck is getting loaded.

I'm up to 3 sets of 20 squats, 5 sets of 20 incline pushups, I'm sticking with the stomach vacuums and crunches when I can and now I'm adding in full pushups when possible and occasionally I'll slam out as many incline pushups as I can. I've done up to 80 at once without rest. I can probably do 120+ with rest in between sets.

So far I'm seeing good results. I'm feeling a lot stronger in several areas, my muscle mass has definitely increased, my chest is looking a lot better and my stomach is flattening out. I've increased my protein intake and tweaked my diet slightly here and there, although my diet was never the major issue. I've asked my wife to help me in this by increasing the number of protein-rich meals she makes, especially while I'm working.

I'm not looking to become a professional body builder by any means and I'm not even really worried about cutting fat so much as building muscle. I choose incline pushups to start as it's simply easier for my work to do those. I can stop the truck, throw in a set or two and jump back in the cab and carry on much quicker than if I were doing full pushups. I'm adding them in slowly for when I'm stopped for extended periods of time.

I don't care about being "ripped" in fact, I'm fine with some body fat, I just want to make sure I'm staying in shape and not becoming a flabby fuck like 3/4 of the guys I work with. There is definitely truth to the term "operator body" and I'm not super interested in letting that become my reality.

Turns out "cakes" wasn't all she gave him. 😏


Love this.

I've been going hard while I'm working. I can stop my haul Truck fairly frequently and get a few sets in quick.

My wife has been making some good protein and carb dense foods lately and I've told her to keep it up.

I think a lot of my gains are because of my aggressive progressive overload and because of my diet and rest schedule.

I start work and usually can get a set or two (15-30) in before first break at 11. If not then I'll do 6 sets of 15 OR as many as I can in one round at start of break and then once again at the end. So far when I try that I've done 80/35. Then squats but I keep those lower because my job is driving and I don't need my leg muscles burnt out in case of an emergency. So far I'll do 3-4 sets of 20 for those.

I'll repeat this two-three times a shift, eatinh immediately after each session some cereal before sleep. Then I do it again next shift. I'll do that all 7 shifts and I try to repeat while I'm off work as well though that's harder to do without a set schedule for 7 days off.

It's a work in progress.


I'll take 4 or 5 of those Bitcoin please. 😇

At my job, you're often passing other haul truck drivers. When a trucker drives by you, most wave. Some don't but most do.

Most waves are similar, and frankly pretty boring.

For months now I've been throwing the nostr hand sign (I'll be honest, I don't know what it's called or where it came from) specifically because of Nostr.

I've even got a few people who throw it back at me including one of the old guys! Achievement unlocked!
