Were humans ever really any good at having more than a handful cherished relationships? npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I see all colors of the rainbow... npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez In our relentless pursuit of efficiency, humanity often risks stripping away the very essence that makes life truly vibrant. Yet, against this dulling of existence, we find form expression and art. At first glance, Logic and Art may seem like opposing forces, but consider their most profound manifestation—Language. It is through Language that imagination takes flight, or conversely, is reduced to mere function, leaving no room for nuance, no space for the unspoken. How do you wield this powerful tool? Do you recognize its depth? Handle it with care, for within Language lies the soul of our collective humanity. https://m.primal.net/Jyut.png npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez that match against serbia made me pucker, but the dream team came through beautifully against France npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez you're very talented man! you deserve it.

Yakihonne has a notes feed and an articles feed. Notes are perfectly fine it's just better to discover articles on the article feed and notes in the notes feed. I'm not an expert but that's why the different note kinds should filter accordingly to drive a better user experience. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez That sucks man sorry you had to go through that. I use combination of coinbase debit card, bitpay, and paypal to pay bills with my bitcoin and havent had any issues yet. — This is a comment on: https://yakihonne.com/flash-news/nevent1qqpkrynzqgsfm55rkx7ua2x2ky9ghjsazemlwyta86rsjzsm6squlvsle7dkh6crqsqqqqqp92cxhp npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I completely agree. For those who have tried living completely on a bitcoin standard quickly understand that you cannot diamond hand. Bills will not wait for your high time preference. You need to pay for utilities, food, and other needs and that will force you to spend your bitcoin. Ive been living on a 75% bitcoin standard for 6 mobths now and Ihave been forced to spend when some emergency bills come up. I always look to spend with people who accept bitcoin in irder to support a circular economy but that is still very new for a lot of businesses. — This is a comment on: https://yakihonne.com/flash-news/nevent1qqpkypfkqgsfm55rkx7ua2x2ky9ghjsazemlwyta86rsjzsm6squlvsle7dkh6crqsqqqqqpqq7nxc npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez In today's age it's tough to give our relationships the undivided attention needed to help strengthen them. As parents, our relationship with our children is literally life altering. Great post! npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Looks like Mississippi woods. Where is that? npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Once a year US Army reservists conduct an annual training to refamiliarize themselves with a combat environment. Everytime I attend my trainings I remember the times when I was in active duty and small bits of nostalgia creep through. This morning I was on a mission that departed early in the morning. I had to use night vision goggles while driving through heavy woods. As I drove millions of bright specs shine in the night sky between the branches of canopy above. There's not many jobs where you work so intimately within nature, blending in, becoming one with the darkness. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I miss Savannah GA so much. I lived there almost 5 years with the Army. It's just a different lifestyle there, pirates and hippies lol. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I think it's just people shaking off the toxic culture of Twitter and YouTube comments for followers. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez This is possibly the smoothest way to get him out of the race without making it look like the party is rebelling against him. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez GN, Sweet picture. May you rest as deeply as Mr.Cat there. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I loved warframe. spent hours playing it with my cousins. when I played back in 2014ish It felt like an online arcade from the early 2000s there was an eerie loneliness to it. With my cousins in tow we discovered the different crooks and crannies of the "universe" and aspired to get new skins, guns, and level up for new abilities. The crafting aspect is barnone, it was awesome. but... like any microtransaction game if you dobt pay up you better play up. — This is a comment on: https://yakihonne.com/flash-news/ npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I just checked your website and didn't see it in there. I know you were recording it, but do you have a digital file of it somewhere to check it out? npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Isn't it unfortunate that you just can't quite trust the "experts". I mean an efficient society is one where citizens specialize on particular skill sets and a common trust of the expert is needed. This is what allows for exponential advancements in systems, processes, and technology. It's sad and may go so far as being criminal when people take advantage of that trust. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Good morning! Treat others as you'd like to be treated, stay united not divided and create something beautiful with your day. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez That's a nice hybrid, do you commute often with your bike or just like the comfort for riding distance? I'm thinking about getting one here soon. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez good luck on your job search. Hopefully, nostr will mature to the point when you can live off the zaps from your travel blog. love it. — This is a comment on: https://yakihonne.com/flash-news/ npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Creepy looking thing. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez That will be your nostr profile lol. If things keep going the way they are, in the future it'll be your resume. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Laying some foundational memories. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I think AT&T accepts bitcoin as payment but through bitpay. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Sheesh this is getting deep. Choice is a quintessential part of nostr. Right? To each their own. Let's keep zapping and liking and sharing and querying. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Break out the sheep! npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I think @nprofile…trf3 is trying to reveal that Nostr is our chance to really change social media for the better in a more permanent way. Its rift from what we have been conditioned to over the past almost two decades of internet social interactions. I think people get wrapped up in the concept of the zaps because it is one of the best ways to truly signal the acquisition of value and sometimes that acquisition of value can only happen via serious discourse, hence the reply. While I agree with that wholeheartedly like @nprofile…aekp I fear not having a function to signal to a friend on Nostr that I've seen your post and I liked it but simply don't have something constructive to say is where the like button comes in. As a content creator, I engage in social media to get my writing content in front of an audience and my hope is to grow a bigger audience over time. To do that I have to put some skin in the game and engage with other creators and users and give valuable opinions and feedback. Along the way I'll develop deeper relationships with those folks and that, like you said @nprofile…cnzf is what makes the experience that much better. People should just recognize that likes are truly not the highest value. Content creators should strive for engagement and of course, content creators would love to get paid for their efforts. In the end however, there's nothing worse that posting something and getting zero interaction whatsoever! lol In the end, the like button is a substitution for low quality replies that could just as easily be automated in a bot function. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez https://image.nostr.build/3180f356769e4bc7e9908724d51566e2541d456e9ac7b1f35a80ec6895c9cf4a.png "Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. Care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity." -Laozi - Tao Te Ching Laozi did not believe that was an inherent good or evil attribute to natural phenomena but rather that their existence required balance. This concept helped me understand the importance of taking time to be with my wife and kids but also not resent leaving them for work. Both go hand in hand. The better I work to bring a good income to my home the more quality time I can spend with my family when I’m with them. It's easy to get wrapped up in the idea that more time is always better when its the quality of that time that really matters. None of that is possible without the balance of action between work and leisure. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez "No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man." -Heraclitus https://image.nostr.build/0e867fd93de85b77e87ba0b26c5cd151faa56c8b51baac5bba086581dfafadbd.png npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Aesthetics* ( god damn autocorrect) npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez That's kind of concerning.

Everything mentioned is important for us as a global society to acknowledge needs work. 1. Food is tainted 2. Intimacy is hard to come by 3. Relationships (part of intimacy) are shallow and people are having a harder time creating even shallow relationships 4. Social media and virtual escapism eliminates opportunities for physical relationships (not necessarily sexual but can include sexual) to bloom Looks like there are quite a bit of things to work on. The best place to start is with yourself. I'm a father of two children. Ill start with myself, work with my wife to be the best example for my kids and, just maybe, the next generation might have a chance. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Don't be afraid of living today what you'd like to do tomorrow.

More and more places are accepting bitcoin. I think the primary reason people don't accept it in their business is because they are afraid it may not cover the cost of goods and overhead. Once the raw materials producers and wholesalers accept in bitcoin and the economy can close the circle there'll be mass adoption. Today, that transition lays in the hands of a brave few who are willing to accept it. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez 🫠 https://video.nostr.build/9cbc7168c261dbf44f8f0ad909cadcfdb823cfa1fd522ba2827ea621d6241e04.mp4 npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I think you made a good call.

I'm a strong believer that of all the cryptos, Bitcoin is the only real money. Everything else services the role of a security or utility token. That said, I think DeFi on Bitcoin, so long as its not directly on the Bitcoin block chain clogging up the system and running up transaction fees, is the right move. This will allow economies to allocate wealth efficiently with real money. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Crazy to think this hasnt been revoked yet.

I don't get that from Breedlove at all. What I will say is sometimes I feel that he tries very hard to emulate Michael Saylor. Everytime I hear Robert talk it's like he copies the manuisms of Saylor. He probably isn't doing it on purpose but that's how it comes off to me. He does a great job bringing in some great guests and guiding conversations.

As of right now stealing an nsec would be to impersonate or steal followers and notes but a stolen nsec is not detrimental. With this a stolen nsec is stolen money as well. I feel it's important that we keep the functions separate for security. I'm no expert, so I may be misguided or not understand fully.

Just saw the movie part 2 last night! npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Words of an Ancient Sage- The Writing of the Tao Te Ching Yinxi stood, broad-shouldered and clad in leather armor, before the arc of the Hangu Pass. The sun was setting in the horizon when a familiar face appeared. Laozi was on his way to a life of seclusion, seeking passage to Mount Zhongnan. Society, plagued by moral decay and the conflicting ambitions of the political elite threatened to ignite generational conflict. Laozi didn't want any part in that. He decided to leave his position as the keeper of archives at the Zhou Court and disappear from the public sphere. Knowing of Laozi's great wisdom, Yinxi pleaded for Laozi to stay. His teaching could help keep society in line. Laozi remained determined to live a life in seclusion, but heeded Yinxi's request. In a few days he wrote the Tao Te Ching and handed it to Yinxi, leaving his knowledge and wisdom behind. Then, Laozi faded away into obscurity. https://image.nostr.build/68beb0e2eb0e1d9350ec3c296a17ca12d2a9cdf958dd38384c10b320c9401a9b.jpg npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez What you got there? npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Thats the ideal situation!

I like the new one. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I see a frog 🐸 npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Well, in my opinion, I believe there is over arching admiration of beauty. Within that beauty there is a wide set of ways that may appeal to "my" humanity. As a heterosexual male I am sexually attracted to women. So though I may find another male very beautiful, even a spectacle to look at and admire, my brain does not map any innate sexual appeal. Whereas that may be different with a woman. And that experience that I go through might be different for someone else so I'm not generalizing in any way here. I may just see pure beauty and not be inspired sexually when looking at a woman and I may also be sexually attracted to a woman. There is nothing inherently wrong with my naturally arising distinction of either one. I don't think there is anything wrong with sexualizing so long as it's not harmful to the self perception of the person being sexualized. Words don't have to be spoken and I think we get in turbulent waters when we say something like a "thought crime" especially when there are some thoughts that do not translate well in language and are best tied to emotion. There Is something to be said about the concept of common courtesy and how that ties to the local, physical, shared human environment. It's important to always engage others with common courtesy and not assume nor extrapolate the meanings or intentions of one's actions unless it blatantly speaks to something outright malicious or perverse (by way of the dictionary definition of perverse: showing a deliberate and obstinate desire to behave in a way that is unreasonable or unacceptable, often in spite of the consequences.) npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez https://image.nostr.build/bbf1e2eaaeb58b9896c5312a9e0b66d7aff931869c0896f94a6b12a63a81b19d.jpg I’ve never been very good at keeping up with my house, even before the kids. I’d let dishes pile up, but I’d wash them before the day was out. With kids, the dishes just pile up. I eventually get to it when it gets out of hand. The dishes are an illustration of everything else around me. The grass gets cut when I notice my dog enter the house with a bunch of hitchhiker weeds. The clothes get put away from the laundry room when all of my drawers are empty and I can’t find any of my clothes. Time is a slippery thing for me. I thought I’d be getting more of it back when I made the decision to start my own business. Who was I kidding? Now, when I have a few moments to spare I have to choose whether I want to get ahead on my “honey-do” list at home or lay my head back and catch a breath from my fast-paced life. It's tough, but I have to make my home a place worth building beautiful memories. I have to show my children, through my actions, that things are worth taking care of. Good Morning- Happy Fourth of July #Grownostr #PlebsRaisingPlebs #ParentsOf Nostr #Writing #Artstr npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I think I can find people attractive and they not be sexualized. However if I state that I find someone "sexually attractive" my mind is sexualizing by attributing a sex role for that person. That is in part what I see presented to me. The human mind is capable of reading context and sending and receiving signals about things not specially said and maybe not implied. Bayside deliberately sexualized their characters and those who watched understood the context. So yes, I suppose I do equate sexually attractive with sexualization. Other wise I would just find someone attractive. There's a nice difference between the works beautiful and sexy. I feel those two words work well too delineate what you asked me. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I like science fiction and fantasy so Im drawn to certain authors. Dan Simmons writes hypervivid pieces and may best be known for his hyperion series. The other books are highly recommended by friends and family. I'm open for anything though. What would you guys be interested in? npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez Damn...

I grew up in the 90s and this shit hits hard. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I'll definitely look into that. I don't smoke cigars often. When I do its with buddies and a glass of whiskey. If I can find a way to remove the disatisfying after effects that would be ideal. Granted, it may be my bodies way of saying I shouldn't do it lol npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I don't know, it's a nice way to make into a hyperlink but the interface is jarring. I know there is work being done to make that better but these links will be the gateway to nostr it might be worth having this as presentable as possible. Not quite client level stuff but at least something less jarring. Maybe instead of showing all the "under the hood stuff" just hiding it and asking, "want to see what x-person is sharing in nostr click here" to have them then choose a client. npub1cs7kmc77gcapuh2s3yn0rc868sckh0qam7p5p4t9ku88rfjcx95sq8tqw9 John Martinez I've tried brushing my tongue (that's a normal procedure when I brush my teeth) and mouthwash. I've tried everything, but after smoking some full bodied cigars it leaves that leathery tobacco scent for too long after smoking. I love smoking Romeo and Julieta with a light Connecticut shade wrapper with some whiskey. It's nice while I'm smoking. But like I said, its the after effect that kills me.
