If you need a place to stay in El Zonte, please consider the Mayara Hostal. It is the volunteer housing for the future clinic, but proceeds from the stay will be used to help with the clinic construction. https://image.nostr.build/bdb1332e3517451dfcfd189d8f12ef2c0d9ec4c5fd54d941e37433aac1fcc397.jpg


So the purpose of government data released as economic indicators is to manipulate and drive investors’ behavior rather than provide any reliable information. Do I have this right?


Done! A friend was lamenting to me this past week that his wife still won’t sign their divorce papers (It’s been 4 years) He then proceeds to tell me that he is sick of covering all her and her boyfriend’s expenses including her attorney’s fees which equates to a little over $70k every month 🤦♀
I told him I wouldn’t sign either if I were her.

Yes please.


How many ASICs do you think could be hooked up to this? https://image.nostr.build/cc6a6e1d9967cc06ce40b3ed1ea1dcf7ca79bae123016d58d2c4795af0981610.jpg


Reading this made me happy this morning.


Correct. Nothing touches your mouth after the rinse if you are using a fluoride version since fluoride is water soluble.


I really like the purple Listerine. I have seen patients eliminate sensitivity and reverse cavities contained in enamel using it once daily before bed. If you are anti fluoride then I suggest the Listerine naturals which is fluoride free.


A mouth rinse too if you are gum disease or cavity prone.


You guys, enjoy every minute with your kids. It goes by in the blink of an eye.My youngest, the baby of our family went from 10 years old to 26 in just 3 years 😭

Waterpik is great if you have braces, a lot of crowns/bridges or spaces between your teeth where food gets trapped but it doesn’t replace floss. You need the string floss to get between the tooth and gums in the pocket to reduce the bacteria that causes inflammation and gum disease.

It just wasn’t stressful. We usually dressed up and family members would come to the gate with you and wait until you took off. Or when you landed, friends/family were right there. The flight itself was usually nice too, visit with the pilot, pretty good food and you didn’t feel like cattle on a Greyhound bus.


I’m so old I can remember when commercial airline travel was enjoyable. I don’t mean the destination, but the actual going to the airport and flying.


Ha yes the food is phenomenal, but we mostly ate street food which didn’t seem to be very photogenic. For example this is the yummiest thing we ate our whole trip. It was an arepa where the woman dries and grinds fresh corn to make the dough and fills with beef eggs and cheese before frying. It tasted like a fresh filled Frito chip. We ate lots of arepas but this one was insanely good. https://image.nostr.build/2867780c1a6ebf872dff4367b3156ef0d71200c6bb52ddebdb292d7e4ca48f5a.jpg

If you don’t have a wet spot on your stomach when you are done, are your dishes even clean?


Sure but I think it’s stupid. There are male gynecologists and female urologists for goodness sake.
I guess it’s to make it seem like they are trying to be caring about the unnecessary intrusion.


This was my lesson from Covid.


My basic breakfast in Columbia this morning. It's always astonishing and alarming how food tastes so different outside the US—beef, coffee, bread, fruits, vegetables, and even mustard. I don’t think most Americans grasp how messed up our food supply is. https://image.nostr.build/75a76ee93e4f2ebb04f5daac52f33709a6fbd156f0e6e560e58d59038202dd99.jpg


You are saying race, gender or sexual orientation does matter in that case? I guess it would to some. I don’t care as long as they are doing their job properly.


Hmm, what’s an example where those things matter and skill or experience does not?


What is hard to understand? I don’t care if my surgeon or pilot is diverse only experienced and skilled.


I’m learning 🤓


Who gives a shit about the gender, race, or sexual orientation of anyone doing a job but ESPECIALLY a skilled job where they are responsible for peoples’ lives


He is amazing. I’m in Colombia now and it’s incredible how much people here of all ages look up to him.


Ha! But no shaking the 🤙 ever. It’s just a chill raise or throw of the Shaka. That was lesson number two.


Not yet, but these boys are starting to ask me questions about bitcoin. I’ll make sure his parents are ok with the idea and do it!


One of my son’s friends who is a born and raised local said to me, “Can I give you some advice Ms Susie? You need to loosen up your shaka; it’s way too tight. Shaka needs to be free with barely curled fingers. Just chill with it and you’ll see.”

I have been away for four days on a trip and my husband just texted me “Absence makes the boner grow harder”

It depends on your kids I’d say. If they like sightseeing, ruins, and history? Yes. If they prefer beach/pool time and adventure? Then no. My kids preferred Jordan, Thailand and even Mexico to Turkey because they felt there was more to do, but my husband and I love it there.


Hilarious


LOVE. You only need a few days in Istanbul. See the mosques, eat great visit, enjoy the Turkish bath and the airport is fantastic. Antalya is a beautiful beach town with great resorts. Ephesus has incredible religious excavation sites that will remind you of Rome or Jordan. My favorite town is Cappadocia. Take a hot air balloon ride, stay in a fairy tower hotel,  eat the freshest yummiest food, visit the underground city, Pigeon valley and Goreme. Let me dig up some pics for you.


Nice.

I never dreamt of early retirement. I genuinely enjoy practicing dentistry. I’m good at it and it was very lucrative without my husband and I ever compromising our ethics. What I began to hate after Covid was running a practice. Keeping and retaining employees became an issue for the first time in our careers and something that had an even bigger impact was what happened to a colleague of ours who had a great influence on us. He kept postponing retirement after 65. He bought a huge home in a country club community around that time. He finally decided to retire in 2020 at the age of 75. He retired on a Friday and died Sunday night. He didn’t have 1 day of true retirement. This was a huge eye opener for my husband and I.

As for retirement, it’s great! I have become addicted to golf after a 20 year hiatus and we are training to climb Kilimanjaro this summer. We are travelling a lot, getting to spend more time with our younger 2 kids than we ever did with our older two, and Im finally getting proficient at Korean. Finally, I am working on the clinic in ES and we are doing mission work to not let our dental skills go to waste. I wouldn’t change a thing.


Retirement does not mean your work is done; it means that you finally have the freedom to pursue your dreams

Yeah I think that and Pilates have kept me from having any of the back issues that are typical in my profession. No amount of core strengthing or inversion table sessions could correct for squeezing out a 10+ lb baby though.


My 4th child was 10 1/2 lbs delivered naturally 😱. I suffered with severe sciatica after delivery which was mostly resolved by my chiropractor and working with a PT, but it was still a 2/10 on the pain scale, so 3 years ago (10 years after giving birth ) I travelled to Houston to get the “Ring Dinger”. It completely eliminated my pain and has never returned and I haven’t needed the services of a chiro since.

I’m a big fan of alternative treatments and think everyone should consider them for conditions that are not resolved by traditional medicine.

Anyway, here’s my video which may not be for the faint of heart if you are squeamish 😬 https://video.nostr.build/42dedd7c9a18c5a822fc4861a921740a56d8e7e2d88c62cc6bb5122cb89e0fd6.mp4


Ahh Aiea Ridge is a great trail. So many incredible, challenging hikes on Oahu. I feel blessed to live here.


That’s me and thank you! Tallow cleanser and tallow balm, that’s it. I think Im just lucky to have a Korean mom.


Amazing! Moanalua Valley is an awesome, gorgeous hike, but makes for a really long day. So smart you wore spikes and used poles. People rarely do here and often get into trouble. In fact I didn’t take mine last month hiking a muddy Olomana and my husband had to carry me out after I twisted my ankle.

If you can do it without taking out exorbitant loans, then yes I would. Otherwise no. Every young dentist we interviewed for an associate position with $500k+ in loans ended up working at a chain because we couldn’t pay them the same (offered no commission). All of them we have kept up with hate their jobs and one even called it “soul sucking”. If you don’t have a lot of student loans, you can get a business loan to buy a practice and make a great living without compromising your ethics.


My liberal friends told me this is true


Very much true for dentistry and vets. Private equity money is pouring in. The money is enticing, but we were shocked by the terms you need to agree to in the sale. Profit optimization and optimal health care for patients don’t mix.

You have not studied medicine or have
dentist friends in the US then. It is against OSHA requirements to work on patients without a mask or protective eyewear. Offices can and have been shut down by violating these standards.


I have done over 30 dental missions in many countries and was in practice for 26 years. There is zero reason to use a face shield when you are not performing aerosolizing procedures and a plastic shield does not help with odors at all.

Yep and I do think it’s more obvious in middle school sports than in life.

Two of my son’s charging fouls were questionable at best, but as we told my son, “You sometimes face unfair calls or scrutiny even as an adult. Knowing that and how to NOT respond to it when it happens is a super power.”


That’s rough, and another good discussion with kids about whether you should be more cautious when you have a responsibility to others. Team sports are so great for kids when managed properly.


My son was in his basketball playoff game Friday night. He picked up 3 charging fouls, a blocking foul, and 16 points in the first quarter. Hubby told him to not foul out this game so he went the next 3 quarters without a foul, but only 4 points. He was really upset by the outcome.
There are several life lessons in there that have made for some great discussion at our house.


Oh I’m a huge proponent of censoring for yourself. Muting is a beautiful thing.


If you begin to limit voices you don’t like, eventually you will lose the voices you do like. Censorship is an inevitable slippery slope.

Thx! Some scrapes and cuts, but mostly a bruised ego.


The last thing hubs said to me as we left on our hike today was “Grab your spikes.” It hadn’t rained for a couple days so I thought “Nah, I’ll be fine.”  I proceeded to fall  half a dozen times on the slippery, steep ascent and descent. Did hubby scold me? Say “I told you so?” Get angry with me or make me feel worse than I already did? Nope, he picked my ass up half way down the descent and carried me out. He reserved the scolding and “Never again” lecture until after I showered and got cleaned and bandaged up 🤗

Friends, relatives, acquaintances, former staff, parents of my kids’ friends, etc.


Work hard in the first hard half of your life so you can play hard in the second half of your life. I know too many people including my mentor in dentistry who worked hard all their lives until they were too old to enjoy it. My mentor retired at 82 on a Friday in 2021 and died on Sunday night. He didn’t have 1 day of enjoying retirement. It was a huge eye opener for me.


We will have a much bigger mission in April. Would love the help!


I said this so many times that day


Ha, glad someone noticed! I wore my bitcoin kicks as well.


Dental and medical education in ES is equivalent if not better than the US. It’s 8 years + 1 required year of community volunteer work which the US does not have.


My husband and I will teach dental continuing education classes at the clinic for dentists.


I know far more people who will be upset when #bitcoin  hits $100k than ones who will be elated about it.

I’m at LAX and the Asian couple beside me asked the ticketing agent where the sleeping lounge was located. When the agent replied, “We don’t offer anything like that here” they seemed very confused and after some discussion finally responded, “Sleeping pods are fine then.”

Happy Thanksgiving Nostriches! Here is a throwback to one of my favorite Thanksgivings (2011) when we did a morning 5k and met these Kenyan marathoners and their coach. We invited them all to dinner and they enjoyed their first Thanksgiving. They brought a Kenyan dish called ugali which was cornmeal and water. This is also what they consumed during their marathons for energy rather than gels or goos.

It is a memory for which I will always be grateful 💓

I hope your day is filled with family, food, and great memories! https://image.nostr.build/3b6c18a15bcb1d3e865a9e598a63d82f0e177d4254b87e0326a7b7082dc6bf3c.jpg


He does a rub like that on ribs but we prefer salt & pepper only on a great quality brisket.


Instead of. You get consistently better bark with butcher paper.


Meh. We don’t eat bbq every day and avoid seed oils in our foods so it’s worth the convenience.


Always and butcher paper > foil


Hubby would say do it. He was a Big Green Egg guy for over 20 years and says the Traegar is far superior. He’d also tell you not to get the top of the line one. He originally bought the extra large Timberline with the burner and it had non stop issues so he returned it and got the 885. No problems so far and he uses it a couple of times a week.

This is the most stupid easy recipe I make that my family raves about so I thought I would share on #foodstr

Trashy Cheesesteak

1 lb ground beef
I small onion
1 green bell pepper
4 slices Kraft singles
Salt & pepper
(Sometimes I add mushrooms as pictured here but my kids prefer it without)

Sauté chopped onion in butter for few mins, add ground beef and brown, add chopped bell peppers. Cook until peppers are soft. Add the cheese slices on top, once they look slightly melted, stir it all together.

Serve on buttered and toasted hoagie rolls. Enjoy! https://image.nostr.build/b3f71186e9cbf73cd2b6820450d11f662a8c958f83beb3a3bb89bb95cf2e0c95.jpg

I went to dinner with a friend last night and of course she asked me about bitcoin. After I gave my spiel she said, “But Bitcoin is not money. Try paying for this meal with it and see what happens.”
Later she generously took the check and put her credit card down. Less than a minute later the waiter came back and said, “I’m so sorry, we don’t take American Express.”

I think that people are waking up as I sit in the comfort of my Nostr bitcoin maxi bubble and then I will have a normie conversation with people saying, “I have nothing to hide”, “I’m willing to give up small freedoms for the greater good” or “a CBDC would be so convenient, I never use cash anymore anyways” and I become disheartened.

Oh lord, that’s almost 5 miles one way to the falls! That’s why I never trust those apps. Kalalau is gnarly after rain and can be really treacherous especially the Crawler’s Ledge portion. People are rescued from the trail all the time. In fact it’s the only hike here where I always use poles and sometimes microspikes too. So glad you got to do it, see the waterfall and got out safely! It is a stunningly beautiful trail few get to experience.


We take cookies or fruit for the guard 😁


The railings are wobbly and it gets really slippery with the cloud mist but I love it. I pray they decide to renovate it rather than dismantle it.

Just spinach, bacon and peppers, but it’s yummy. It’s not even close to the most expensive omelette on the menu. They have seafood omelettes that are pushing $24. Food is very pricey in HI in general.


My favorite omelette here locally went from $12 to $16 since June.

My standard zap amount went from being worth 3 cents to 4 cents in the same time period.

Decreasing value vs increasing value.

No this is correct! The anus is the first OPENING to form, but happens after the nips form.


Ackchyually nipples form before the anus. Week 7 vs week 11 of gestation


Your nipples are older than your teeth.

I have a dentist friend in Mexico City who charges almost the same for crowns as our lab cost for a crown. I couldn’t touch his prices. American dentists like to say that it’s because the work is inferior or dangerous/not sanitary. My friend has a nicer, more modern office than most US dentists I know and does beautiful dental work.

Yes. What exactly would he be getting the booster for?
The transmission it admittedly by the manufacturers does not prevent?
To reduce the severity of his “only sniffles”
Or to inoculate him against the virus that he is currently infected with thus will have natural immunity?


My uncle has Covid.  He is blaming this on not getting the latest booster. When I asked him if he wanted some ivermectin he said, “No I feel fine, just some sniffles.” I just learned that he is now planning to get the booster next week. An MIT EE PhD without a brain 🤦♀ I’m dumbfounded

Thanks Oxtr! Usually eggs, a steak  or both for breakfast and some kind of beef or often fish now in HI for dinner.

I exercise every day. We usually walk 3 miles in the morning with our dogs, then we are either hiking, kayaking, or I take surf lessons after that.  I also lift weights or do Pilates 30mins-1hr 6 days/week. It’s easy to be active in the islands.

From Ray Dalio’s Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail


People out here really trying to save their wealth in fiat while the government is constantly debasing that fiat to fund itself.


Education and inventiveness do not cease in the cycle. They were occurring in the western Roman Empire until it’s fall. There is no denying that wealth gaps, larger debts and money printing are occurring which means we are further along in the cycle.


It has most definitely started, but we ain’t seen nothing yet.

Nope.


I always use salted butter and everyone loves my chocolate chip cookies.


Proximity to family was one of the major factors in our move and something we realized was missing in our lives during Covid. While we had an incredible group of friends in GA and so many that feel like family there, we realize now that it’s not the same. We feel like it’s a blessing for all the generations of are family living here that we made the move and we wish we would have realized it sooner.


IMHO, there is never a need for unsalted butter.

Sure I could agree with that, but if we are going with my anecdotal experience here in Hawaii from friends, family, parents of my kids’ friends, people much younger than us and much older than us, people are FAR healthier here in the “poor environment” of HI than any place I have ever lived.


In a toxic environment, I would assert it is even more important that you feed and nourish your body well.

So glad you have found a place you are genuinely happy. To me that is the true key to longevity.


As someone who has reversed disease via diet, I couldn’t disagree more that it doesn’t matter what you eat no matter what the environment.

I wish the best for you as well wherever you land. Aloha!


Lol!


Fair, but I also am a firsthand witness to the health of our friends and family here. Many in their late 80’s and 90’s with a couple of octogenarians. No cancer or autoimmune diseases other than an Uncle with Gulf War syndrome.  I can’t say this at all for our social circle in GA. My relatives in their 70’s on zero medication and everyone leading an active lifestyle here well into their 80’s. I appreciate your looking for something different, but from what I see here from the fresh food we grow and buy daily, the sun, activities, low stress, beauty of the location, and health of the seniors, it’s hard to beat.


While I don’t discount any of what you said, as of May 2023 it was still the case. https://image.nostr.build/cf4ccd02a3cface1d9a89cf39ce330ac661b6699b652e9b7ba59c6c674b03b91.jpg

Salt & pepper only this morning.

There is a local farm here where you can feed all kinds of animals-deer, camels, giraffes, oxen, pigs, etc.  The only ones you aren’t allowed to feed are the ostriches because they are so aggressive.


No, but I have had iCloud since then so I have some old pics on my phone.


It reminds me of the taste of chickory coffee like they have at Dunkin’ Donuts. A little earthy and not the deep bold flavor you get from good espresso beans, but I like it.


No reason to delay it, just brush and rinse after drinking it/before your visit.

Yes. 🤣


I am butter’s bitch.

The only reason I decided to address it is because I figured if there is one nasty and hateful person who thinks it, there might be others. I don’t want someone’s negative feelings about me to impact a bitcoiner’s business in any way.

Curate your feed better then. Money far from dominates my discussions here.


No, I see that I’m able to directly compensate educators I appreciate which as this protocol grows could allow them and other creators to cut out middlemen, sponsors, etc. That is not disturbing nor is it worship of money.


Poor take and not seeing the forest through the trees.


How is compensating someone who provides you value worshipping money?


It’s cool to watch peoples’ evolving understanding of value and value exchange here on Nostr.

What a time to be alive! 💜


Ha, definitely not worth it.

It’s insane. None of our staff or patients this morning had heard anything about it and one is from Ohio!


The better to get you to inhale deeply my dear.


I knew it was you by your nip.


I think I will have a bedroom and bath free in my place if that helps.


Thinking about this further, I believe that the changes Twitter has made and plans to make (govt directed censorship, paid subscriptions, rate limits etc) make it a fork of the original Twitter.  I think it would be more accurate to compare its network effects to Bcash than to bitcoin.


Because Twitter is making changes that are objectionable to many


Apparently “I think our story starts with introducing our names to each other” is the new “How are your trades going?” DM 😒


E. All of the above


This is the way. Zapped.


Done. Im so excited!


Nostr is elegant in its simplicity. It lacks many anti-features, such as:

* Paid advertisements that fill your feed with noise.

* The Algorithm, which distorts the reach of accounts and messes with your curation in unknown ways.

* Arbitrary limits on the length and type of content you post.

* Unpredictable rules around how embedded media gets rendered.

* Nanny warnings about posting negative language.

* Unencrypted DMs that can be read by admins.

* An ever-looming axe over your head that if you violate the increasingly complex and ever-changing terms of service, your account will be censored.

Nostr is freedom.


I thought eth is highly centralized?


Is there anything that isn’t improved by decentralized?


It’s somewhere between 7 and 15 relays with 3 to 6 paid relays.

https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_3d633a5a3e98d0defb32acee4d27c578130ea9456809f8aa8239c607559fe037.png


Down bad


20 was fine before Damus became available in the app store, but now 10-12 seems to be optimal. I also recommend at least a couple of paid relays.


SusieB has entered the chat.


Secretary Yellen says that America has paid all of its debt on time since 1789 and Congress needs to raise the debt ceiling for the US to pay on time now. 🤦♀

Anyone have a good analogy for this line of reasoning?


So far all of them are a one time fee.


That does not suck. Enjoy!


A little over a year.


You do you. Im comfortable with my health and life choices.


Oh god, you get my point.


The people who lie, coerce, and censor are your enemy.


**The Umbrel Nostr Relay is now available**

Introducing Nostr Relay — an official app by Umbrel.

Connect your Nostr clients, such as Damus, Astral, and Amethyst, to your private relay for seamless backup of all your activity on Nostr. This ensures that your activity is not lost even if you are censored or blocked by public relays.

In Damus, go to Settings > Relays to add your Relay URL.

Tip: Install Tailscale on your Umbrel and your devices for an uninterrupted connection between your clients and your relay, even when you're away from your home network. Enable Tailscale's MagicDNS and use ws://umbrel:4848 as your Relay URL.

Nostr Relay is powered by the open source nostr-rs-relay project — a Rust implementation of Nostr relay. It currently supports the entire relay protocol, including NIP-01, NIP-02, NIP-03, NIP-05, NIP-09, NIP-11, NIP-12, NIP-15, NIP-16, NIP-20, NIP-22, NIP-26, NIP-28, and NIP-33.


I am not promoting anything. I eat what has proven to be most healthy for myself which is full carnivore after being vegan for 3 years. While a plant based diet reversed my type 2 diabetes; a carnivore diet has been even healthier for me based on my bloodwork, endurance, and energy levels.


I never know if I’ll be getting a QR code or a flower being planted in someone’s butthole 🤦♀


I instantly regretted my decision.

I’m not quite ready to abandon Twitter yet because there are some people I follow there whose tweets I really enjoy. I have taken to sending them dms to pressure them into coming over.

I’m mostly talking about Big Sean Harris here 🥰

Obviously it’s because they arent finished spying yet.


This is really nice David. Thank you and followed!


When someone on Twitter says to me, “You’ll never get as many followers or as much engagement on Nostr.”

Eden.nostr.land has been great. I just paid for nostr.milou and puravida.nostr.land as well to check them out.


I think Twitter is best used now for finding the pub keys of your favorite accounts you follow.

I tried Parler, Mastadon, and Gettr. They all seemed like poor substitutes for Twitter and I lost interest within days to weeks.

Name something you can do on Nostr that you can’t do on Twitter. I’ll go first…paste a lightning invoice.


GM! People need access to technology that allows them to transact privately.


Never did I ever think I would utter the words “beefy relay” when speaking to someone, but here we are.


The smarter you are the bigger the blind spot, I see it all the time with ppl rolling their own security because they are “qualified”. This means you are a small mistake away from getting pwn. While everyone else using market solutions enjoy the economies of scale and the market beating they take.


This is great. Thank you!
