I’ll be nasty and brutish as a last resort in response to force in certain situations, but otherwise 💯
To picture a world where we relate like humans, not like either chimps or bonobos, probably consider most of your everyday interactions.
Consensual; pleasant; respectful; mindful of other’s rights, personhood, boundaries, and desires; personally responsible; socially egalitarian
To picture a world where we relate like humans are meant to, go beyond this to consider the happiest family you can: inspiring, deeply loving and caring, generous, thoughtfully considerate
Dude, it’s great!
It’s a Nostr audio chat platform.
I host #nostrbiblestudy there Tuesday nights 8:30 New York time.
So much other cool stuff goes on there too. There’s definitely a community with a fun vibe

Why is fighting considered necessary?
Because we know how many of our neighbors would be complicit in our murder.
Build a better way in parallel, attract your neighbors to it.
Things begin to seem less bleak.
The day might come when the loudest minority is the one laughing at the state’s tantrum demands instead of falling in line, and the rudder of the follower majority finally turns toward liberty.
Maybe not without a shot — heck, I consider Ross and Assange and many more casualties already. But with fewer shots than there could have been, and more sticking power.
Brilliant idea.
When my mom bought a tagine, we also got a thick copper diffuser plate to use it on the stove. I guess it’s the same concept, just a little fancier.
What kinds of things that you’re up to do you think he’d like the most?
It’s a lot worse than I thought. Some people I lost in that pseudo-nuke and added back a full month ago are gone again.
It’s about enough to make a lady give up for a while.
WTAF
Tried out OxChat to avoid the DM reporter bot.
Seems like it’s working.
Also, there are some messages people sent me that I can only see there, and do not show up on Damus or Primal’s DM screens… 👀 even an important one from months ago
I think this one does count as #nostrability @elsat
#sourdough emergency — I completely forgot to put the dough in the fridge last night.
In the past when this happened, I baked it and it made wonderfully fluffy bread that wasn’t sour. That would be fine.
But the most recent time I tried that, the bread failed to rise at all, and I don’t know why.
Any ideas or suggestions?
#baking #bread #cooking #food
After removing from the fridge, I always add more flour and some cane sugar and honey, which definitely gets consumed and turned into loft.
I’m probably freaking out over nothing and should make the bread. I just remember it failing the last time though it had worked before.
Keyboard warriors of Nostr: do you self-censor more when you are AFK? Or are you just as confrontational offline as you are online? Do your tactics differ?
I feel I haven’t been pissing people off enough in either place recently 😔

Depends on the chaos.
I know people who think liberty is chaos. They really need someone telling them what to do or they feel lost, I guess.
If it’s daily violence, nowhere is safe sort of chaos, I don’t think I’ll be thriving.
DUDE I’m glad to hear someone else say it
I’m not 45 but I might as well be for all the arm strength or ability to keep my back straight that I have…
I was gonna start at 12, then do 25, then 50, then 75, then finally be up to 100, taking each step as I felt ready. Because everyone doing this is starting to inspire me.
Ok, I have no excuse anymore… I’ll start, too!
This is the third random bean-related conversation I’ve had on Nostr in two days.
I prepare chili for the church chili contest tomorrow.
It was going to be a no bean chili… beginning to wonder if I should change my mind.

I keep getting surprised by discovering folks I’d lost track of in the Great Pseudo-Nuke where I lost about 2/3 of my follows.
Part happy to find them again, part sad I lost them for a while and didn’t think to realize why.
I put a lot of effort into vetting folks; for some accounts, reading all posts and replies 1-2 weeks back is a significant amount of work. Losing the results of that effort really sucks.
All this to say, I should really go back up my profile 🤔
Considering I’ve already played some with listr.lol maybe that’s the way to go.
This happened a while ago and I think it was explained to me, but my mind is usually a sieve for technical details.
#asknostr anyone use stainless steel baking sheets (no nonstick, no enamel or ceramic coating) that stay flat at high oven heat? My most used temp is 375 F but I’d be more comfortable if it could go much higher without warping.
I’m very ready for new baking sheets 😅 I use them for EVERYTHING
#cooking
I found some for sale at my state fair claimed never to warp. But it was over $100 for a SMALL baking sheet! I’m gonna need a demonstration at least that it doesn’t warp, not just assurance… and even then, whoa
I bet there are great options for cheaper
We’ve tried enamel steel before and it works “like magic”the first couple times, then holds onto all stains for dear life and eventually starts to chip. I got tired of this in frying pans and now use stainless only.
I figure someone out there is engineering pans so they stay flat ish because of how they physically built the pan.
I’m concerned stains mean they’re not getting fully clean.
I don’t really mind a thick baking sheet as long as it stays flat. It’s probably an asset, really.
As far as I know, seasoning on a cast iron is polymerized fats only, from an intentional application. Other food residues (are supposed to 👀) wash away. Having actual food residue seems like a health hazard, as well as affecting the flavor of your next dish.
Tough question to answer. Folks I like who I met on Nostr and have spent significant time talking to directly off Nostr are
@Nobody@The Beave@BRB‽@TKay@Mallory
If I tried to list others I consider Nostr friends, I’d definitely forget someone and feel bad. But yeah, you are definitely on that list, @karo 😊
That’s horrible.
Someone once recommended I join the CIA and said it was so full of Christians they call it “Christians In Action.” The more I know about the CIA the more deeply shocking and absurd that is.
Ok! Today, I got notifications when people I muted reacted to notes I made or was tagged in. I didn’t get notifications with replies because I don’t believe any such person replied to one of my notes today. Still, being notified of their reactions is also not ideal.
