 Thanks, now I also want to consume some flan 😂 
I just chose burrito because it would have a lot of variety. 
 This was 🔥!! Thanks to all who joined. 
We read John 1 and had a wide ranging conversation about it. 
Join us next week to study Luke 1! The Gospel of Luke will form more of the backbone of our study of the Gospels. 
We will also refer back to the Old Testament as we go along.

 Why God didn't create medjool dates to be low calorie and low sugar is beyond me. They're dangero... 
 I used to think they were really boring. Now I get it. Not sure what changed.

 Misogyny can be found in every culture, even Western ones, even today. 
In the article, the oppressed women themselves maintain that the silencing of women is contrary to Islam. 
In short, it’s not that simple. The enemy is fighting on all fronts. So should we be. 
 I have a different understanding of Christianity, @GHOST and would be happy to talk about it with you sometime if you want to hear more. 
 So I already thought I had a busy day with no spare time. Then the baby grabbed a cup of coffee and poured it all over carpet, books, and clothes. It’s amazing how much spare time you find in a situation like that…

 Remember when we had physical photo albums and we’d get them out when people came over and look... 
 Digital photo frames fix this! 
 Modern cars get worse and worse. 

Much like food and education, a ubiquitous pillar of daily life has been targeted for hamstringing. 

Unlike food and education, there aren’t many solutions for cars besides “only buy old ones.”

This plan has the major problems of entropy and limited supply. 

Are there any other ideas?  Is anyone working on alternatives?

 It would be based AF if there were to be a directory of mechanics willing and able to do this. 
 "Don't speak negatively about yourself, even as a joke. Your body doesn't know the difference. Wo... 
 I’m thinking of it like Nostr has a cold. The immune system devs are probably going to think up a solution at some point and the problem will subside. Until the next one… 
 Does something like that ever end? 
 *goes to "Latest" feed*

*sees only my posts and some stuff from an hour ago*

Oh.  
 What’s your client? 
 I’m just thinking that I’ve noticed Primal has a backlog sometimes. I’ll open it up and it’s only stuff from hours ago. It sometimes doesn’t update for a whole day. 
If you were using Primal I’d say just wait around and use another client in the meantime while you wait for it to catch up. I use both Primal and Damus daily now. 
 Can't delete posts 😭 
 Zuckerberg can’t delete your posts, either 💪 
 I meant here. 
 Just trying to share a silver lining 😊
Amethyst does allow deletes, but as I understand it, it’s still up to relays to accept delete requests. 
 Hmm, I thought I’d heard amethyst could. I’ve never used it, though. 
 Pawpaws taste nice with ginger green tea.

 Yes they are! 
 Sorry, bot, pawpaws are not native to China, but to North America 
 They are so good and native to this area!  I wish I knew where there was a patch I could direct you to. I bought these. 
Unfortunately I don’t think they will last until the coffee event this weekend. 
 lol hah they aren’t lychees either 
 You would have a better chance checking out a farmer’s market. 
 What's the deal with the nostr:nprofile1qqs83rts7wqgj8y69nrqf6yecu63spdkatgw9n4wyzqr4042ymszwkqpr... 
 It might not have taken them all that much time to make these annoying bots. I’m not a programmer but it feels like very simple principles are being exploited. 
 Can I post??  
 It seems so! 
 Manoomin pilaf 🖤🤎💛🖤🤎💛
Serve with some apricot glazed pork? 
 I ended Breath of the Wild with so many korok seeds... 
 Getting them is a pretty fun part of the game 😁 it was clever of the designers to incentivize exploration. 
But what happened?  You could have had so many more inventory spaces!  Why not spend them? 
 Oh yeah he moves around. He shows up in three different places. The last one is where he stays the rest of the game. 
 So thinking about this … you beat the game with minimal inventory expansions. 
Kind of a flex! 
 Check out the color on these pawpaws!  I thought they were supposed to be white inside?

 It’s the fruit of a tree native to my area that tastes very tropical and delicious. Because they don’t keep or travel well, you have to find them yourself or know someone who has them; they’re not commercially available. 
They’re related to soursop and cherimoya if you know what those are. 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asimina_triloba 
 Some people say they have a mango flavor note, but I think it’s overwhelmingly like a combination of banana and cherimoya or soursop. There’s a lot of variety, too. One of these is a little savory and has a cherry note, and the other is maybe a little vanilla-like. 
 Like a tropical explosion 😂 
Cherimoya x banana with occasional cherry, vanilla, or savory notes. 
This is probably the sweetest food my baby has ever tried; she only had a banana for the first time last week. She clearly LOVES pawpaw. 
 You may want to plan a trip to the southeastern U.S./Canada for when these are in season!  You’re unlikely to be able to try them otherwise, as they don’t keep or ship well. 
I think some states have a pawpaw festival which would probably be a good bet! 
 Something like this could be a really good tool for someone like me who vets everyone before following 😂

 Did someone say coffee?  😂 
 It’s very based that you’ve built a successful agorist community. Hoping to pick up tips and stories concerning that. 
I also like hiking, funny cats, music, and cooking. 
My husband is keto so it could be interesting to pick up recipe ideas. 
You pass my baseline “posts not likely to annoy me” bar 
 I WAS just going to eat the six ones fresh. But now I have enough for fresh eating… and ice cream!
Time to inaugurate my ice cream maker!  The last time I made any was years ago, borrowing my friend’s machine. 

I probably will still have some left over after that 😅 I hear the pulp freezes well, so maybe that. Or I could try making a pawpaw “pudding” recipe my friend made which is more of an eggy cake. Not my fav texture or appearance but the flavor really did shine through and it was very nice. 
 Checking out wofati design. It’s interesting. 

Does anyone know much about his claims of how expensive straw bale and cob homes are?  I had thought part of the appeal was cheaper than usual materials. Unless you’re doing timber frame, of course….

 pumpkin spice is everywhere but we're still in wildfire season. air quality is terrible right now... 
 Geez triple digits?
I guess they invented the pumpkin spice ✨iced✨ latte for you folks 😂 
 probably weird but I like to go to sleep thinking up designs for shelters in survival situations  
 I used to imagine survival scenarios to go to sleep, too!
Designing shelters is a nesting measure. Makes perfect sense to me! 
 I never looked into these much before now; thanks for calling them to my attention 
 Love is like fire, which can be spread without diminishing. 
 You can light farts ON FIRE we may both be right

纽约时间星期一9:30好吗?

 已经结束了 😅 希望下个星期认识你! 
 August has been 
I N S A N E

Now that I can take a breath, there are two recurring voice chats I would like to set up:

— Bible study in Corny Chat. 
Start in the New Testament and focus on Jesus; frequently refer back to the Old Testament for context. Informal and lots of audience participation. Bring whatever translation you like and we’ll be comparing. 
Probably weekly. 
I am thinking Tuesday evenings New York time. Depending on time of day, there may be one meeting a week I can’t attend (because of a conflicting computer meeting 7-8 pm); if there is a conflict, I’d encourage everyone to meet anyway and pray during that time. 
A 24/7 prayer room where someone is always in is a stretch goal of mine, one I feel strongly about 😊

— Mandarin-English conversation space.  The point is to be able to stop anyone at any time to explain a word, grammatical structure, idiom, etc. for the sake of language improvement. 
Space TBD, possibly nests.  
How often and when:  also TBD. Mondays (New York time zone) at various times work great for me. 
It might be tricky to find a good time for everyone with the half-planetary time difference, but I know it can be done!

 You should join us then!  It’s the very first one. And even if it weren’t you’d be welcome.
