The cell browsing with silent link is so bad that you can’t even receive a text message to activate signal messenger. They (silent link) explicitly admit/address this on their website.
Data works, not great, but calls and texts are basically out of the question. I loved the concept and bought two silent link numbers, but the phone with silent link was below the threshold of useful/usable for me.

According to the internet, the exchange rate in Argentina is about 350 pesos to the dollar at the moment. But my friend in Buenos Aires tells me that the rate on the street, the real rate, is closer to 750 pesos to the dollar.

What’s your favorite job you ever had?

2023-04-29 01:51:41

‪I’m trying to position myself to be one of those people doing ignoble work for high salary. I’m not there yet. But I see the path. I estimate that I will only gross about $25K-$35K this year. Not great. But I think that I can get that number well over $100K just doing farm kill work…if I level up my game.
The main thing is, I’m the only person who does my work around here, and it’s in demand. If I work hard and get connected in the market, I know my demand will be infinite. But I need to hone my skill. It takes me 4 hours to do a cow by myself, from the kill to hanging it in a walk-in cooler. I need to get that down to 30-45 minutes.

Good one, Marty. Well formulated thoughts. I think your assessment is spot on. Inflation is going to continue to rise no matter what jpow and the fed do along the way. We’re way in over our heads already and there’s a tsunami of entitlement debt coming year after year. I don’t see us coming out of this one like we have in the past, when economic crises hit, had an impact on markets and society and then we moved back into a state of relative normalcy - where things were more or less as they were before. It doesn’t feel like we’re going back this time.

A pretty scrawny mangalitza pig I harvested for a local farmer. I’ve killed a few other mangalitzas from a different farmer that were absolutely massive.
One of the big ones I slaughtered had a viral infection early in life that left it with its back legs paralyzed. The pig was happy, and pulled itself around pretty good, but it couldn’t get on a trailer and go to a regular slaughterhouse. So we did it at the farm with the farmer there.

2023-04-23 07:32:12

I was looking back through some old slaughter pictures and damn look how clean I skinned this goat.

The “custom-exempt” designation for animal slaughter in California means that individuals have a right to kill their own meat animals to feed their families, and the state doesn’t need to inspect or oversee the slaughter. The individual also has a right to pay somebody like me to slaughter their animals on their property and to contract a commercial butcher shop to process it for them.
What’s neat is, an individual with no land and no animals can also buy a live animal from a local farmer and avail of all the same rights of having the animal killed on the farm where it was raised and processed locally for their own consumption.
Strangely, Gavin Newsom passed some regulations in 2021 that enabled me to do what I do - to legally operate a kill truck and slaughter animals on the custom exempt market for local farmers and families. I’m not USDA certified slaughter, I’m not inspected at all really. And I’m in super high demand.

I used to use a few inputs to my garden: some chicken shit to amend soil and feed new transplants; “Mykos,” a mychorrhizal fungal inoculate that you sprinkle on the roots of transplants. And I used to spray a little neem oil if I saw a bug infested plant or powder mildew - a habit I picked up farming weed in Northern California.
Neem oil is a broad spectrum fungicide and can eliminate and repel insects by disrupting the maturation process of the eggs. When my wife first got pregnant a few years ago I stopped spraying neem around the garden altogether.
Within 24 months the insect population balanced out naturally; predators like ladybugs, spiders, lizards and alligator lizards flourish, and so keep unwanted insect populations in check. Alligator lizards are naturally immune to black widow venom.
In addition, the natural mychorrhizal communities in the soil are stronger without having to absorb the neem oil, and I don’t think a fungal inoculant is needed or very helpful anymore.
Chicken shit is still great stuff though.

I’ve used nothing but compost/worm castings tea in my garden for almost 3 years, and my garden looks better than ever!
A few scoops of compost and/or worm castings in a 5-gallon bucket, fill with water, add sugar, aerate for 24-48 hours. Water into your garden.
You can also use it as a foliar spray.
Optional ingredients: epsom salt, kelp, fish emulsion, among others. Simple preparations of just compost and sugar have worked just great for me!

Hey Slim,
I was riding with a local farmer to a farm kill today. We got a chance to talk about some of these very issues. Where I am, California, it’s a fucking mess to try to source local beef (local anything, but beef is harder imo)
- The beef in the supermarket is from God-knows-where.
- the beef in the specialty butcher shops (which are few and far between) get grass fed and corn fed quarters from the Midwest.
- I knew one butcher shop that managed to get a few quarters from a California farm with USDA slaughter stamp (required for resale). In general, they can’t find it.
- The large landowners in the area do have cattle, but they are sold live. Some of it goes straight to China, I heard. Beef raised on the central coast, grass fed, is fantastic.
That’s why I’m focusing on direct-to-consumer strategies. Individuals can buy whole animals from a local farmer, pay me to harvest it, and a local butcher shop to process it. We need to get more local ranchers on board, and streamline the process.

I had a good day on a farm kill job. The women who run the nearly 1-square-mile farm wanted to dispatch the animal themselves before I arrived.
More typically, the farmer or owner will have me kill the animals. Some like to be there, some don’t. I can respect that some would want to do the kill: they raised the animals and cared for them their whole lives and I think they don’t feel comfortable giving the responsibility to somebody else.
If you commit to taking the shot, you have to follow through with whatever happens from that moment on.

I want to try to post something everyday. I like #nostr a lot so far, and I want it to succeed!
The feed is very different from Twitter, but I like Nostr even more.
For one, Nostr is more lighthearted. I see much less political content, and I see no fights or murders. I don’t like seeing those things and I actively block or mute people posting such content to Twitter, but yet it still pervades my feed.
Maybe I just haven’t followed enough people yet, but I’m going slow and making sure I only follow people who are actively posting for now.

Good morning #bitcoin #nostr!
I’m still here! Heading out to help a farmer friend harvest a couple hundred quail. I met him through his CSA (community supported agriculture) group which he started during lockdown when his regular restaurant business slowed.
When I first showed up on his farm he showed me around and poured me and my brother a beer from his home brew setup. It turns out, he has a PhD in biology. He didn’t like the field work he got with the state, doing surveys, monitoring construction sites, so he and his wife started a business raising animals for meat.
He taught me a lot about how to slaughter animals. I just asked, and he obliged. But I always showed up, and I worked for free, or in exchange for the education.
Now, I still volunteer, but I get my monthly CSA box for free 😁 and he filters me so much business! He got me two jobs just next week, farm kills: a pig and a steer.
And I get to be one of the people that does the dirty work for everybody else in the CSA. The animals belong to all of the members, it’s important to them how they are raised, treated, fed, and killed. I take the responsibility seriously. The work is dirty, and killing animals is unpleasant, but it’s rewarding. I thank God for the sacrifice, and someday we all will be consumed by other organisms too; so it goes - life feeds on life! The process of death and decay cannot be disrupted! And it is beautiful!
Time for a morning coffee. God bless you!

Trading from my phone while bouncing around South America with nothing but a backpack and a nylon-string guitar I bought for 270 Reals in Brasil. Just getting drunk and making out with Argentinian and Brazilian girls covered in glitter at carnaval bloquinhos along Ipanema Beach with the private keys to $100,000 worth of bitcoin and shitcoins scrawled on a discrete corner of a page in my journal tucked in a pocket of my shitty ripped backpack.

Good question! I reckon I have sent $750 or thereabouts many times. It’s possible I’ve done some over $1000, just can’t recall now. It’s really amazing! Lightning works incredibly well for me, especially on my own node where I can monitor liquidity.
