Ah, the quiet part out loud!  We’re just LARPing that we’re equal, are we?
It’s really no use speaking with someone arguing in bad faith like you.

At least stop truncating the antecedent to the ‘50’s. Men have absolutely been heavily involved in childrearing through history.


Why do you disrespect fatherhood so much?


Yes, this is an extremely important issue. I’m really interested to hear the perspective of doctors and nurses on wokeism, just like many had uniquely valuable perspectives on the Covid response that were brushed off.


Amen!  Let’s read it!
I agree, I wanted to try Nests but Cornychat is just too much easier to use.


I’m sorry you feel completely lumped in with what I’m addressing. I actually remarked in that discussion how impressed I was with the -general- trend of being careful to talk about trends as trends and not universalities. Including your input!

The discussion and its lower points did make me think again about this issue and the general low tone of other conversations on it I have personally been witness to.
Like I said, I’m hearing this thought a lot lately.

But yes, you did just now make some statements I have an issue with, and I addressed that. Including by calling attention to good things you said in the other conversation.


Chicken or egg?  I can think of other cross-cultural things that aren’t inherent human behavior.

I ask again, how many people are trying to actually fix the problem rather than use it as an excuse to built a world where they are more likely to hold more power?

Because you also admit (or so I thought) that there are women who do not think or behave this way.
We’re not men!  We are who we are somehow.

I refuse to perpetuate collectivist thought, including sexism.


I have been wondering if I should stop dancing around the matter and call it what it is.

I’m hearing the idea that women in particular shouldn’t be able to vote / hold political power a lot these days.

Many reasons are given, but I never seem to hear mine — that no one at all, man or woman, should be able to vote / hold political power.

No, the reasons all center around some perceived problem with women, or some statistic that is assumed to be an innate problem with women and not a fixable problem with society.

I’m somewhat interested to know how many of these people are raising daughters and attempting to influence women they know to have the critical thinking skills and respect for individual rights that could actually change the world for the better, with or without the problem of political power first coming to an end.
Or are they just perpetuating the problem by saying “girls will be girls” or insisting on conformity to gender roles?

Welcome to Nostr!

As a botany nerd, I’m intrigued — how do you influence the sex of a  plant as a seed?


They look like they’re pretending to ride horses 😂💜


We fundamentally disagree on multiple issues 🤷🏻♀


People rapidly lost interest and no one at all showed up to the Bible study which had been scheduled in advance.
I’ve been considering trying again, though!


Oddly specific number 🤔


I say “apart from” but the true ideal in my opinion is “involving the whole family”


I read between your lines and no.

The whole career-life-family system is broken, not just for women.

The world is not better off when mothers have only the mother and wife role to play, while fathers and husbands are trapped in a system where they are kept from their families much of the time working.
Balance is needed. Mothers and fathers are both vital to children and mothers and fathers both should have lives apart from their children as well, including meaningful work.


🤔 highly altruistic absent fathers?
These features don’t go together. Does not compute, divide by zero

👍 I’m glad to see that in general, this discussion has made clear that women are not all the same.
We’re not, and cultural trends can be overcome.
Raise the children you want to see run the world.


Just popping in to say… motherhood is also hard and dirty work that costs much and builds society.


“It’s true that God did not address Abram’s decision to let Pharaoh take Sarai as a wife. A close reading of that story, and it’s placement right after God gives Abram the promises reveals that Abram
1) believed the promises were for him, and did not consider the promises might also be for Sarai
2) that Sarai also appears to have believed this
3) that the two main male characters saw Sarai in terms of her relationship to them (wife, sister, woman)
4) But God saw her as Sarai
5) God powerfully intervened on behalf of -Sarai-

Abram and Sarai, and Pharaoh (ergo all Egypt) realized this God was immensely powerful, and favored this particular man and woman, even over Pharaoh, and was evidently even more powerful than the gods of Egypt, who presumably were not able to protect Pharaoh and his household.

Abram, by his behavior, indicated he could always procure another wife to have his child of promise, if Pharaoh indeed would take the one he had away.

But God patiently withheld this child until finally visiting Abram in person. God made sure Sarai was within earshot before announcing the astonishing news that it would by both Abram’s -and- Sarai’s body that this child would be brought forth, and then God made sure that Abram knew Sarai had heard this divine word as God spoke it.

This was a gradual revelation to Abram and Sarai, and the world, that God [is] not like other gods. God gradually revealed God’s self to the Hebrew people centuries later, with shows of power, and patient repetition.

We know from the start that God had no intention of allowing Sarai to be harmed, and God intended that Abram and Sarai should consciously know that God’s promises were meant for them both.

That was surely blockbuster in that ancient, patriarchal culture and time.”

The Alexandria app for the exasperated and beleagured minority that can #NameTenBooks.

This is going to be version 1.0, focused on reading books, note collections, and other modular articles, but there is later going to be a writing/uploading section, and we will be supporting wiki pages and articles, as well. Anything long-form.
This is the app that #Biblestr will spin off from, based upon the subset of Bible book events.

And there will be much more and it's going to be awesome because we are all readers and we need a quiet place to read and to explore what to read next. Like walking through the library...

I actually lived this way later than most, right up to 2021 with about a 1 year exception when I lived in China, 2018-2019.
Living in China, it’s less possible to do without a smartphone (specifically WeChat) than it is in the U.S. where I live. I still went back to my “dumb phone” no problem when I returned home, and still see internet-in-my-pocket as a luxury.

The one thing that would really hurt me is having to go back to paper maps getting to new places.  I still could, though.

July 4 Special:
Pro/Con of the United States

Pro:

-Demonstrated to the world that free market capitalism produces wealth
-Economic freedom in the 1800s and 1900s lead to massive innovation and productivity to improve many people's lives
-Original focus on individual constitutional rights gave a philosophical framework for global liberty
-Lots of hotspots for innovation: Silicon Valley, Wall Street, New Orleans music, & more

Con:

-Consistent military empire
-The violent empire erodes many of the civil and fiscal liberties that once made the US great
-Fiscal slavery over foreign minorities through the World Bank and IMF
-Global taxation of income, even if US citizens work in a foreign country
-While the US doesn't have the most oppressive laws compared to some dictatorships, the enforcement and surveillance is the most sophisticated.  When this is combined with complex and vague laws, such as cryptocurrency, it becomes the least free place for Agorism.

It’s been years since I’ve had my favorite Vietnamese dish, pho ap chao!

No, it’s not pho the soup. I don’t really like pho 😅
This is a noodle dish where the noodles are fried in a sheet and then tossed in sauce, so you get an amazing half crispy, half chewy, delicious and unique meal.

First I had to remember what it was called, and then nostr:npub1jrx2fk666k5nt8vgak9xwyxlgcwh8fl9rvpwvvcpdthuqkcnptrqdfhtaq and I went on the hunt to find a restaurant serving it here in northern Virginia. There are tons of Vietnamese restaurants here, so you’d think it would be easier 😅

At long last we found Rice Paper in Eden Center, and I finally got around to actually eating there today.

The flavor was spot on, but the texture was a little off from what I remember because the cakes of fried noodles were made about three times as thick and four times as large as I’ve had before. They also used round vermicelli-like noodles instead of flat.

I guess I’ll have to keep looking, or just order the dish again from Doan’s in Charlotte!

Anyone who knows another place to get this dish in NOVA, let me know 🙏

Fun and weird note, for some reason my chopsticks today were labeled in Russian 😂 🤷🏻♀

Other power herbs for skin healing are plantain and comfrey.
Plantain grows everywhere. Find some that is probably not sprayed or driven on and mush it up and apply. I’ve had amazing results from plantain with rope burn.  It would probably help sunburn too.


Put aloe gel on it as soon as you can.

Try your local Chinese grocery, but don’t only check in the tea aisle; it may be sold where they keep the stuff that’s kind of food, kind of medicine.
You could show someone who works there these characters:  荷叶
You can also get it from Amazon.
It has a very mild, pleasant, herbal taste.

Oh awesome!  As a recently pregnant woman I’m interested in what else are in these power balls 🤔 I’ve gotten really interested in traditional foods for pregnancy and postpartum.
I think lotus seeds are supposed to be rather high in protein, like beans. So it makes lots of sense, you need extra protein for growing babies.
I had strong cravings for beans and other protein 😅


Soooooo tasty
Even when not mashed, lotus seeds are used in other dessert-like Chinese dishes


Have you ever tried making a tea from dried lotus leaves?  It’s delicious!  And Chinese tradition holds that it helps the body adjust to summer heat. I don’t know if that really works but I enjoy drinking it in summer anyway.


My favorite way to eat lotus seeds is not as healthy 😅

I was so worried about my brand new lotuses while I was out of town… ten days in the 90s with no rain.

Inflation is literally a policy of explicit, persistent impoverishment of the middle and lower classes to support the corporate and banking class.

Anyone who supports it should be treated delicately, like a brainwashed cult member, because that’s what they are.

The idea that literal forced poverty is good for the economy is equal parts retarded and insane.

I like that term — the examined life. I do think a critical part of this is an attitude of examining why you do things, why you believe things, and what’s going on around you. 💯

Self-stewardship and self-ownership as well 💯

I think you could start anywhere, though. They’ll get to money at some point, but it could be smart to start wherever their attention is closest.

They’re all excellent but that one is so sweet 💞


I would guess that it’s just more generally adapted to your plot of land. But now that I know this, I’m certain that’s part of the adaptation.


Just started listening to this podcast because of this recc. First episode I pick, mind blown:  seeds contain living microorganisms. They aren’t just coated in them, they CONTAIN them.
And my mind filled with all kinds of thoughts, like:
I bet we’re losing so much diversity there, too.
Yet another way I’m sure conventional agriculture with its heavy sprays and artificial fertilizers is having a profound effect on our crops and health.
I suppose this is another reason buying local seed stock is extremely important.
I want to learn best practices for fostering rich soil life so that I can be part of the solution and provide good seeds to my community.

I think about Romans 12:18 often:

> If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

This is my goal in all my interactions. But it's complicated by the previous verse:

> Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.

Truth and kindness can be hard to reconcile. This is why it's such a miracle that the Psalmist prophetically declares:

> Mercy and truth have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed. Truth shall spring out of the earth, and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

It is impossible for God's rigid truth and peace among men to coexist as long as our sin persists. You can't have peace with an angry person. You can't get a lazy person to exercise mercy. You can't get a person bound by their lust to tell the truth about it. These are intractable problems without divine help. This is why it's such good news that Jesus has sent us his Holy Spirit:

> It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you. And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: of sin, because they do not believe in Me; of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

The Sprit first softens our hearts to admit our faults. Then the real work of righteousness and the Kingdom of Heaven can begin. Finally, that work is evaluated.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

Good thing I ate at home today…

Very disappointed in the fact that the bowl I made, left, and labeled on the bottom to be used in the community lunchroom until I leave the studio and take it with me has completely disappeared.

I’ve had a false sense of security, I suppose, because there are many handmade pieces like mugs up there that everyone has used and returned the whole year+ time I’ve been at the studio.

But maybe I should have known better, as two of my tools have even disappeared from my labeled tool bucket on my labeled shelf. Not to mention a friend’s work was intentionally vandalized once.

Just sad realities of working at a shared studio with too many members to actually know each other, I guess.

Still very grateful to be here… but also looking forward to the day I can do pottery on my own property.

Nice knowin’ ya, plum blossom bowl 🫡 at least I learned from the cool glaze experiments I did

It’s true many flours make good bread, but I’m looking for the specific kind of flour called “bread flour” because its higher protein has made my bread much better and fluffier:

https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/packages/baking-guide/what-is-bread-flour


I’m almost (not quite) the opposite, an anti-obsessive baker 🤣 it’s allowed me to do some fun and successful experiments
Another thing to be consistent about which is the absolute hardest to be consistent about is temperature. The temperature in the home RADICALLY affects the magnitude and time scale of the rise… I’ve had some accidental late nights over that issue 🤣


Yeah that’s the tough thing, whole grains are amazing for nutrition, flavor, and making a happily bubbly starter, but awful for rise 🥲


I’ve considered doing this ever since I saw wheat gluten for sale, but still curious about how bread flour is made and where to find it cheap and organic.
(Referring to the specific kind of flour called bread flour, not just flour used to make bread)


That would be an awesome gift for a DM 🤔 it would have to have been one heck of a campaign, though


Some of those already have wall carvings, possibly tapestries also 😁


I love the flavor of rye in sourdough! So tangy.
Bread flour is a specific thing though and doesn’t sound like what this is. Thank you, though!


🌟 Notes:
- I’m looking for organic bread flour.
- If it’s actually grown organically it does not have to be certified organic.
- Bread flour is a specific type of flour that is higher in protein which leads to more gluten development and fluffier bread.


I love saving money 🤣 also, I may get back into selling my bread 👀 gotta keep costs as low as possible (without sacrificing quality, of course)


And it is specifically “bread flour?”  What wheat are they using if so?


Bakers of Nostr, where do you buy your bread flour?  Especially if it’s very cheap.

I used to only use All Purpose flour for baking bread, and had found a great source of cheap, high quality AP flour. Switching to actual bread flour has made a huge positive difference and I’m looking for a cheaper source.

Bonus:  what kind of wheat berries exactly are used for bread flour?  Is there a wheat or flour even more rich in gluten that could lead to even fluffier bread?

Fortified by pepperoni rolls, I did some midnight gardening!

Lotuses are one of my favorite plants, and I’ve wanted to grow miniature “bowl” lotuses since I ever considered living in an apartment.

Part of my original dream was that they would actually be food plants, particularly for seeds, but I’m realizing the super small varieties aren’t really good for that. I am hoping they’ll be fragrant, though; one of the three varieties I planted is claimed to be very fragrant.

I didn’t realize I was being sent two roots of each plant! I hope the pots are large enough for double occupancy, because this is all I’ve got for now.

I’ll be keeping them on the shadier side of the balcony until my upcoming trip is over to minimize evaporation, and watching over them for a few days to make sure they don’t float to the surface or anything.

I really hope this goes well!

Experts on Chicken of the Woods, come advise!

#fungi #grownostr nostr:note1asys224ezc2jrd0yr7xtzhmsgpvevd2vju5jrnh6x7m6tzse9gpsvxgzcn


Just think about how long store bought mushrooms last in the fridge as a guess time scale.
More delicate mushrooms might last a shorter time, but I would personally guess COW would last like baby bellas or something.
Someone else might know better. I ate mine pretty quickly 😁


🤷🏻♀ I’d say cut or break off as much as you know you will eat and preserve. Minus a little if that would mean the whole patch. Just make real sure you know what it is first.


What do you mean?  It’s not here


So you definitely don’t have to worry about uprooting them!  Mushrooms are only the fruiting bodies, loosely connected to the actual organism. Mycelia are finer than roots and permeate their substrate; it’s disturbing this substrate that can damage the actual organism.
Chicken of the woods grows on wood, so the only way you could make it stop growing would be to remove or poison the wood it’s living on. It may stop coming back if it exhausts its host, and it wouldn’t be your fault for harvesting.
It’s still good to leave some, especially older specimens past their prime, for the bugs and so it can reproduce.

If you’re able to visit West Virginia Aug 16-18, the annual foray of the WV Mushroom Club is coming up!  This event is a treasure for anyone who likes mushrooms or biology at all. I learn so much at each one. Hope you can make it:

https://www.wvmushroomclub.net/foray-registration


Oh, interesting!  Best of luck!

…come to think of it, I’ve only ever seen Chicken of the Woods growing directly out of wood. I’m sure there’s a root under there, but between that and the color, I almost wonder if it could be something else?  (Or I could just not know something!!)

I, too, am too noob to be confident about fungi unless something is really obvious what it is 😁


This specimen is too old to eat, though. You want the nice tender colorful ones.


Lovely

WARNING: Long note incoming...

I have a friend who doesn't nostr that came to me with a problem this morning. She has a goose acting funny and this is the message she sent when I asked what was up.
"Yesterday morning she was super wobbly and shaky, yesterday was like she was exhausted and just sat. Couldn’t get up, but would drink. Last night she acted like she wanted to nibble on her grass but mouth wouldn’t open. When drinking her mouth didn’t open either. Thought it was vitamin deficiency so i got a rapid vitamin that was packed with b vitamins and niacin, and then put apple cider vinegar in her water and had her drinking some of that before we went to bed. Today she has all the want to move but when she tries to stand she just ends up sitting upright on her butt."
I'm looking primarily for vet advice but if anyone has any experience that sounds like this, could you chime in as well? I don't want my friend to lose her goosey gal.

Loving the matte turquoise with speckly clay. It’s actually been surprisingly hard for me to intuit what glazes will look good on it so I’ve been pretty restrained.  Might try something like that.
Come to think of it, I did kinda like aqua celadon, similar hue… https://image.nostr.build/b3baa14f3142ad6d5379978c1d48e4083aa3002ff931b2756e6f7b0f8000123d.jpg

The frogs are speckled clay while the leaves are white clay. Even with the same translucent green glaze on both, there should be some interesting contrast.

I’m so excited to combine different clays, sculpture, and functional ware!

I just went through a whole thing on Nostr where it became obvious there are MANY people here who absolutely do not understand how to do constructive criticism, or how to tell someone you disapprove of something about them with even the bare minimum of respect.

It sounds like you’re letting that sort of person get to you, but you also recognize there’s something wrong with it. You don’t have to internalize their hatred!  I hope you won’t.

Recipe? 🥜


Here’s the centering tips I remember from last week:

If you have trouble with clay drying out too much as you’re wedging, wet the surface slightly with a sponge and then wait for it to dry, then wedge.

Make a teardrop shape from your lump of clay and jam the point on the center of the wheel. It doesn’t have to be thrown. Whack it into the center and whack it down firmly in place.

Press down the edge of the lump all around, making a “ruffly skirt” sealed to the wheel. Wet a finger and press between the lump and the edge of the skirt, rotating the wheel to seal.

After this point, never touch clay unless wheel is in motion.
Wheel should turn in the direction dominant hand points.

No need to wedge elbows any particular place, but keep hands as still as possible on clay as wheel rotates to make it even more centered. Patience is key. “Let the wheel do the work.”

Coning is important, it forces air bubbles into the center so they go away as you open up.
Use a finger to make a groove at the bottom of the lump. Pinkies go here; alternate pulling the clay upward and pressing it together until you make a tall cone.

Point of cone goes in palm of dominant hand, whose fingers go down the side of the cone. Supporting hand palm touches clay and fingers support dominant hand fingers.
Dominant hand pulls cone down gently and wheel pulls the clay in to center. “Let the wheel do the work.”  There’s a little subtlety of positioning  to this I find it hard to describe verbally.

Now you can make things!

Tom Deininger is a Rhode Island-based artist celebrated for his transformative approach to art, using discarded materials to create mind-bending optical illusions and intricate sculptures.

His work is a powerful commentary on environmental issues and mass consumerism, as he constructs elaborate assemblages from non-recyclable, non-biodegradable materials found in landfills.

Deininger's art encourages viewers to reconsider the potential of everyday objects, transforming them into something transcendent and thought-provoking.

Matthew 20:25-28

But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them, and those in high position exercise authority over them.
“It is not this way among you, but whoever wants to become prominent among you shall be your servant,
and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your slave;
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”

Here's my best Bitcoin pitch to the Rich World's working and middle classes, who can only afford to buy relatively small amounts.

1) It's a currency hedge against rising government debt.
2) It's at least price-stable in the mid-term, so you can put your savings there and decided how you want to spend it at a later date. This is smarter than rushing because of inflation.
3) It's protection against possible political, religious, or personal persecution, because it's harder to confiscate by court order.
4) It can buy you time, later, with your loved ones, by allowing you to, for instance, move house or afford better medical care.
5) It is highly portable, so you could send it to someone in need, on the other end of the world, within seconds and 24/7.
6) You can spend it in tiny amounts and receiving something worthwhile for it.

As a potter, I can help you with that.
In the past, I have made toad houses that are shaped like toads. Pretty cool if you ask me.
I use clay that is meant to be left outside in any season and resist freeze/thaw cracking.

Ooh what’s your method for making Malaysian curry?


Correct. No broth.
If it gets too dehydrated and you want to, you could rehydrate it with broth… it’s surprisingly easy to over reduce it if your heat is high enough 😂 I.e., careful not to get distracted and burn it


Is it solidified at all?  Make rounds; pan fry them or cut grids in the top, put a pat of butter on, and bake them. Super yummy side with some roasted peppers or other vegetables and steaks or roasted meats.


It’s so disconcerting 😂

Here’s how I make curry from scratch!

#cooking #grownostr nostr:note1rex4lnc2w0jtl66ve53vce8swtdyt3qhsdd9e9fla05xtfaw3r0s7kqp6k


Oh yeah I also threw in some tomatoes to the curry base this time 😂
It’s kinda flexible. Even used carrots once. It was good.
I do not recommend adding fresh turmeric to the curry base. It was overpowering and tasted weird.


The secret to making curry is to make a curry base by food processing or blending fresh ginger, onion, and garlic.
I also add fresh peppers here. Red ghost peppers are the best but hard for me to find organic, while fresh jalapeños (and red bells for color) are easy.
You can also add some lemon or lime juice if you want; I do sometimes.

Cook your chicken in butter or ghee with your favorite curry masala. I was told to use a tandoori masala.

After you flip the chicken, pour in the curry base and cook it a bit. Add your veggies and put the lid on to steam; you can pre steam them in the microwave to speed up the process. When they look done, add cream and simmer it a bit more.

Finish it off with a great deal of butter and a handful of dried methi leaves / fenugreek leaves. Melt the butter and stir it all in.

Serve with hot basmati rice cooked with fried cumin seeds 🧡

I guess it’s thickened mainly by reduction and partly by combining acidic ingredients with cream.


Oh get you a pacifier clip!

I only know how to make this butter chicken recipe but I tweak it here and there.  Once I tweaked it a lot to make a Thai curry and it almost worked!  Lemongrass in the food processor is a BAD idea though 😂


1 Corinthians 12:12-13:13

12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by[c] one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14 Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.

15 Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. 16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? 18 But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. 19 If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” 22 On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 23 and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty, 24 while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, 25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. 26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. 28 And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of guidance, and of different kinds of tongues. 29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? 30 Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues[d]? Do all interpret? 31 Now eagerly desire the greater gifts.
And yet I will show you the most excellent way.

13 If I speak in the tongues[e] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[f] but do not have love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

No, I have never been one.


I’m also now seeing notes from accounts I have muted on Damus, which never happened before.


I have enough opportunities to learn from catalysts in my real life, or from slightly less despicable catalysts online. Some people I’d just rather touch grass than interact with.  That’s why I wrote this after much deliberation.

No to both.


So I have been having an absolutely fantastic, beautiful week, which has given me the clarity to think about some important things over the past few days.

During that time, I had an experience that allowed me to prune the tree of who I am following, or even tolerating, on Nostr.  It made me realize that some of y’all don’t actually know some important things about who I am.

Probably one of my most defining characteristics is that I despise cruelty and bullying.  Nothing disgusts me faster about a person than when they are cruel, except perhaps when they try to justify it.  It’s pathetic.

So I’m going to make this crystal clear for all y’all.

It doesn’t matter if we are political allies, if you are a homesteading expert, if you’re a great artist or musician or cook, if you have nice and wise things to say about family or homeschooling, or even if you claim to be my sibling in Christ and “seek His kingdom first.”

If you love cruelty; if you act like a predator against human beings, scenting out the weak and sick to destroy them further; if you tear down others to be “in” or make yourself feel important; if you cheer such bullshit on and support insulting the people pointing out the problem; and especially if you twist religion to justify your sin:

We actually have nothing in common, and I want nothing at all to do with you, ever.

Particularly if you believe yourself to be a Christian, you seriously need to reconsider your stance and turn to earnest prayer and study of Scripture.  There is no justification for this attitude in Christ.

Please out yourselves now so we can mute each other and move on with our lives.

I thiiink it came from the normal way to center clay, wherein you throw a lump of clay forcefully and magically hit the center of the wheel perfectly and with enough force that the clay will stick when you start to spin and mess with it

A friend needs a kidney. I just found out last night. She’s in The Valley, but you can be a donor to anyone, anywhere.

If you’re able, and want to, please give it a rip. Thank you 🙏🏻

As unattractive as this woman may be, sir, you have shown yourself to be the truly ugly one.

I hope you actually find Jesus or find some other way to grow your character.


Wow that’s a lot of words defending bad behavior.
It’s amazing y’all are so uncreative you think there is one way to tell someone they are not taking care of their health, and that it is the harshest way.
Why not actually ask God what he would tell her instead of letting the crowd lead you by the nose?

1 Corinthians 12:12-13:13

12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by[c] one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14 Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.

15 Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. 16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? 18 But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. 19 If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” 22 On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 23 and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty, 24 while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, 25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. 26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. 28 And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of guidance, and of different kinds of tongues. 29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? 30 Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues[d]? Do all interpret? 31 Now eagerly desire the greater gifts.
And yet I will show you the most excellent way.

13 If I speak in the tongues[e] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[f] but do not have love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Correction:  Venus of Willendorf, not de Milo.


Yeah this pic is really unflattering.
Still a jerk move to be insulting. Please don’t.


It’s bad to lie to people. It’s also bad to insult them and reduce them to inanimate objects in your mind. 🤷🏻♀
Don’t replace one evil with another. Find the right way and don’t be a reactionary jackass.


That’s sad. I used to really respect you, Jack, but you keep having these shit takes about real human beings.
Jerks aren’t cool.


I never said I supported what’s going on in the picture, and frequently said it’s totally fine to disapprove of it, but yeah, your dehumanizing words do disturb me. They don’t befit someone who sees himself as a Christian. God would call her his child, not a jug of canola oil.
Take every thought captive.

I also am not supporting being “nice.” If I were “nice” I wouldn’t be calling you out. I’m talking about being loving and respectful.
There are loving and respectful ways to address her problems but you chose to be an edgelord instead 🤷🏻♀

I can tell you’re one of those guys who thinks your personal standard of beauty is universal, and to that I say:  Venus de Milo
I happen to share your aesthetic preference on that, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have a beautiful smile, hair, skin, whatever.
People who can find beauty somewhere have more fun in life, try it maybe.
Again I say though, sure, she probably shouldn’t have won a beauty contest. But that isn’t what I was originally addressing. Only your choice to be disrespectful.


I’ve heard that people in different time zones are really happy when you do!

I think we’re so early it’s still up to us to establish etiquette. So I’m in favor of making it the norm.


We all have our own reasons; this is why I love Nostr. It’s been unparalleled as a source of really cool, niche #permaculture info.

I care about people enough not to call them a “jug of canola oil”

While all you seem to see is her health issue, I also see her smile and her confidence. She might have accomplishments, a strong mind, and personality that make her special and admirable. She might not have deserved to win a beauty pageant, but she also doesn’t deserve to be defined by one thing only.

There are loving and effective ways to address health issues. What you did was neither. It was bullying; I’m just pointing that out. You can do better.


That shouldn’t have bearing on what you do.
It’s also not at all clear.


It’s reasonable to disrespect the pageant or the results of the pageant, but please don’t disrespect the woman.


💯 The secret is planning meals where all the dishes are harmonious with each other.


I used to be crazy good at bowling! It was my “sport” in middle school and I had a teacher who was a professional bowler. I would usually bowl perfect or nearly perfect games.
It’s been a really long time, now, and I wonder if I’m still any good.


Thanks for the clarification about relays!  I had thought people setting up relays could set what kind of actions they could take. I’m not technical 😂


I recommend this show. It’s almost always excellent.


Radio Reporter interviewed me about trading wine for food at Farmers Markets.

Her, "it takes the capitalism out of it"

Me, "No, that's still capitalism. It's just routes around the corrupt monetary system."

I can't wait until people stop conflating Capitalism with our current system.

It’s sad how many things are considered normal and natural that are rooted in trauma and neglect. It’s always a good idea to question “common knowledge” and the status quo.

Just started watching Godzilla Minus One today after watching Dancing for the Devil yesterday, and it's making me think again about bravery and judgment.

It's so hard to know how you would react in a critical scenario.  Maybe all your life, you're sure that you'd be the one to speak up or act when it counted, but there in the moment of danger and uncertainty, who can say?

I think there can even be a sort of "frog in the pot" situation sometimes, where your response to something would be quite different depending on whether it's introduced to you gradually or suddenly.

I think those two elements are key -- danger, with its raw fight-flight-or-freeze hormonal cocktail, and uncertainty, with its more cerebral "what SHOULD I do" "I don't KNOW what to do" focus.

I think you can train yourself to have a better likelihood of being brave by actually considering what you would do in various situations, including thinking about what red flags to look out for would be.  Ask yourself what you will not let stand, what are your lines in the sand for action, and figure out how to tell when that is happening.  Then, at least, the uncertainty part is overcome.

But that still leaves the danger part.   Few of us truly know what it's actually like to be in a moment like that, whatever it is.  I'm in favor of showing kindness and patience to people who weren't brave, because there but for the inspiration of God go all of us.  I think being humble enough to realize that you can't be sure if you're capable of bravery until you've really been tested is important.

It might be possible to practice that, too, to an extent.  When you feel a little panicky about doing or saying something, let it be your cue to flee the comfort zone.

Another example of "I'd better listen to my own advice"

PSA: If you were born with a penis, then however you feel is a way that a man can feel. If you were born with a vagina, then however you feel is a way that a woman can feel.

It's completely insane that with zero standard for comparing feelings across sexes or even between any two people, some will claim that they feel like something they aren't. Accept the things you cannot change. You can like whatever you want to like & live however you want to live, but you cannot change who & what you are. Trying to do so will only destroy your life.


Oh how weird… I’m sorry, I know what that’s from (some coasters I bought!), but I don’t know how it ended up in your shipment 😂 it must have been in some of the packing material I recycled.

有耳無嘴 means to have ears without a mouth. This is a phrase my dad often uses which was used by his father too. The meaning of this Taiwanese phrase has changed in our family throughout the generations.

https://m.primal.net/INIr.webp

In my grandfather's era it was used as a warning to children to not repeat what the parents were saying, especialy topics surrounding politics.  Between 1948 to 1987 Taiwan was under martial law -- political white terror, grandparents would shuffle between languages (Japanese) so the kids couldn't keep up as a safety precaution. A non-zero amount of friends and relatives have been dragged to jail in the middle of the night, some never to be seen or heard from again. 有耳無嘴 meant "pipsqueak, pipe down and stfu"
https://m.primal.net/INIl.jpg

For my dad he uses the phrase as some way to signify that times are changing for the better. I grew up around a dinner table to talk politics with friends and family all the time, making fun of politicians poking fun at the people in power without any care or worry that someone could be dragged away into the night. 有耳無嘴 meant be grateful we live in better times.

https://m.primal.net/INIn.jpg

For me this phrase has evolved to give me another meaning: it is a reminder to never be put into a situation where you can't speak out.  How painful is it to not have a voice in an era where a firehose of information is constantly flowing into our eyes and ears. Our "ears" are able to tap into volumes of information that our predecessors can only dream of, dont squander the opportunity to speak out -- don't allow onself to process information without a mouth.

Nostr is great :)

我的教堂的每周一篇经文：

士师记4:1-10 (CNVS)

以笏死后，以色列人又行了耶和华看为恶的事。
因此耶和华把他们交在迦南王耶宾手中，耶宾那时在夏琐作王；他的军长西西拉，住在夏罗设歌印。
耶宾王有铁车九百辆，他极力欺压以色列人二十年，以色列人就哀求耶和华。
有一位女先知底波拉，是拉比多的妻子，那时正治理以色列人。
她常坐在以法莲山地，拉玛和伯特利之间那棵底波拉棕树下；以色列人都上到她那里去听判断。
底波拉派人去从拿弗他利的基低斯，把亚比挪庵的儿子巴拉召了来，对他说：“耶和华以色列的　神不是曾吩咐你说：‘你去向他泊山进军，从拿弗他利人和西布伦人中率领一万人与你同去吗？
我必引耶宾的军长西西拉，和他的车辆与全军，到基顺河往你那里去；我必把他们交在你手里。’”
巴拉对她说：“如果你与我同去，我就去；如果你不与我同去，我就不去。”
底波拉回答：“我必与你同去，只是你这次行程就没有光荣；因为耶和华要把西西拉交在一个妇人手里。”于是底波拉起来，与巴拉一同到基低斯去了。
巴拉就召集西布伦人和拿弗他利人到基低斯；与他一同步行上去的有一万人，底波拉也与他一同上去。
