Last Notes npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Am I supposed to be praying for your redemption, or praying for you to sin with me? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab And you never get answers when completing them. Did I get 2 images presented because I guessed wrong on the first, or because I was randomly selected to perform a second as part of a training sample. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab My father was a motorcycle rider and I grew up in a country of mopeds. The distinction of the presence or lack of pedals was an important one. I suppose it might not be to most captcha writers or captcha clickers. (Captchors and captchees?) npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Those people look to be on a moped. I’m not sure any of those squares contain any part of a motorcycle. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab N’Quack npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Chicken should be placed head down in a cone! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Isn’t it a white man’s phonetic spelling of an old Indian name, so there are a myriad of acceptable spellings? Also I wouldn’t put it beyond possible that her interns can’t spell. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab So ignore those haters and walk your own path. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Also, to continue the analogy, you can pick up cool gear along the way. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Sort of. I manage the server it’s sent and received from but it’s co-located elsewhere. Although now that I have better Internet service then when I moved in, I keep considering moving it home and just running a backup MX elsewhere. If start9 would get us a server side IMAP filtering setup, I’d be all over that. For now it’s not worth the hassle of changing setups. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I see a decomposing pile of value, but it can be a means to an end. The end being more bitcoin. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab How do you zap a book author while reading? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I feel sad every time I read someone’s resume. I pick “the best” of them for a phone interview, which makes me sadder still for the state of humanity. I don’t think most of my candidates could bake a cake from a box, with directions. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab You can delete those things?! I have all my emails, chats, texts since an unbacked up hard drive crash in 2001. That said, if we stopped talking/dating, I’m not reaching back out unless we move in the same circles and build some level of in person friendship again. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I build and remodel houses on spec. This is my retirement. I’ll do it until I physically can’t, then I’ll have to live on my BTC. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab 19:19 npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I want to enjoy this picture (as directed) but without seeing the hands, what’s to say it’s not more AI generation? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Coindesk headline: npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Nope couldn’t handle people, I’ll stick to fixing houses. But I’ve got a spare hammer if anyone needs to work with their hands. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab One cannot expect to reason with a group whose stated goal is your extermination. Got to keep trying though because what else can you do? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab And if you cheat in college, you can hold a political office. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I’ve certainly heard the word, and used it. But I’ve also been polyamorous for 30 years. While in that context it applies to being happy for you romantic partners’ achievements it can apply outside of such relationships. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I am polyamorous because I believe I can love multiple people. Dating is a process to find those people. I am committed to both my partners (of 19 and 8 years). I still go on dates occasionally as I find others intriguing. But I’m also up front about my time, and that I might not be able to share as much time with someone new as when I was single and poly. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab It’s a beautiful evening to welcome 4 new additions to the homestead. Mama duck was not pleased with the paparazzi so I only got 2 in the pictures. Several more eggs are still under her, but she was hoarding other eggs after she started sitting so we’ll see what happens. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I tried to tie it to money… my half asleep brain read that you started working at a crypto-therapy spot! Makes me wonder what such a place would be. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab You can believe it has value, but it is the collective desire for it by others that actually brings it value. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab GM ostriches npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Your civilization has discovered vertical gardening. +3 to food production. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Do you have a traditional furnace? If so you may be able to set up a series of dampers to open a bypass around the main duct and blow air over the miner and then back into the supply when heat is called for and when no heat is needed lose the dampers and run the miner and exhaust the heat elsewhere, garage, attic, outside. Then you could setup the miner to be your stage 1 heat with stage 2 bring your current furnace heat source. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab As a landlord, I offer 10% discount on rent paid in BTC. I also offer to walk a tenant through how to source it and pay for it (using Strike, so they never need to own it) Only 1 has taken me up on it, which requires patience with the initially low limits on Strike. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I keep looking in this direction. With the cost of electricity in my area, mining for profit is a hard thing to do, but if I’m burning watts for heat anyway, then doing it whilst earning some return makes sense. Now to figure out how to build a miner into a cadet heater housing… npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab It seems like there are so many red flags in dating these days. And then I wonder are they aware of what they are supporting or are they well intentioned but ignorant? Though when considering the energy I want in my life, does it matter? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab The property next door is on the market… maybe you’re what my neighborhood is lacking. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Absolutely. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab In the last run up to a BTC all time high, I was excited to watch my “investment” grow. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Unless you’re near PDX, I’d have a hard time collecting said lemon. Guess my mouth will stay salivating a while longer. Enjoy! 🤤 npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Well damn, didn’t mean to propose you have an allergic reaction. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab It means you should have fried fish for dinner tonight. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Everyone comes to education on different topics in their own time, but the immediate condemnation from your date without understanding would have turned me off. I'm thankful to have one partner fully in support of BTC. My other partner is freedom minded in some aspects, but has a mental hurdle with money not insured by FDIC. She is not ready for that level of freedom yet but also not dismissive in the same tone. I'll count myself lucky. Good luck to you! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I want to heat a cargo trailer to keep my supplies from freezing, maybe make it warm enough to work in. It’s got to be electric to be left on and unattended. If I'm just burning watts, perhaps I should put them to good use at the same time and mine some bitcoin. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Do you watch NFL football? Not Fuckin' Likely npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab As with any education people come to it in their own time. Keep cool and stack on, but don't stop providing info npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I want some of that 3¢/kWh power! Any Chinese investors want to set up a collocation facility? My power rates are at 17¢/kWh and slated for an 18% increase! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab For my business, I need a way to pay various bills either via ACH or mailed check that will cover a bill denoted in USD but settle out of my BTC stash. Then I could reduce dependency on my business bank account while still paying suppliers that only take USD. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Civil disobedience from everyone. Do what is moral in a free and fair exchange and let the IRS go screw. This is the only remaining avenue left to free individuals. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Imagine thinking the pervasive and insidious tyranny we live under should be accepted without struggle because it could be worse. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab First blower door test. How did that result happen?!? That’s Passive House level! Certainly well above my target of “better than we used to build” npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab “Debt-fueled mass consumption is as much a normal part of capitalism as asphyxiation is a normal part of respiration.” — Saifedean Ammous npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Now imagine adjusting it to the M3! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab What bugs me is that Hollywood guns make a noise when you point them. Sometimes it’s a slide being racked without anyone touching it, sometimes it’s just a click, but it’s rarely silent. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab From the Oregon Dept. of Justice today: “A new Oregon requirement … takes effect on January 1, 2024. … We will send additional information about how you can begin complying with the new law in the spring of 2024.” npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I just had to troubleshoot a tenants unit. It was spinning in high but not in low. And the control panel I suspect as being the culprit is of course no longer available. So I guess it’s time for a new one. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I left my engineering desk job for real estate. I love building stuff so am a bags on builder everyday but working for myself; either to keep as a rental or sell after construction. Started in remodeling but am now doing new construction. Loving it, while growing a portfolio and taking enough income to be comfortable. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I feel your pain while also being insulated from it. My work is almost all on spec, and the retail market on houses keeps rising given the huge demand and the challenges Oregon keeps putting in the path of development. So I’m able to absorb most cost increases without affecting my bottom line, it just gets past on to the end home buyer. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab You’re not in Oregon are you? I’ve got a bunch of flat work needed on my current job. We do our own form work before framing, so I know what’s happening to material and labor costs, but I don’t have the skills to make it look good on the flat. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab We are the carbon they wish to sequester. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Took the gator out to the back field and spent 10 min picking the plums I could reach from the ground. I could bring a ladder back, or spend more time, but do I need a bigger haul for 2023? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Come frame with us in the rain in Oregon. Even the best tapes don’t last more than 4 months. Even trying to wipe them dry of wet and sawdust everyday and give them a full pullout and rinse off weekly. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Growing up at an American school in an Arabic country that had been a French colony kids on my playground would effortlessly switch languages mid sentence when they weren’t sure of a word, and others had no issue following the switch. Even many decades later that fluidity amazes me. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab The only reason I’m touching one this steep is because I live in it. My new construction I keep under 8:12. Anything steeper is unnecessarily painful to roof. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Hiding out in the shade waiting for the next panel to be cut. There’s a nice breeze to keep cool. Not to much to blow the panels about but really obnoxious when stapling paper. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Restrainable Government is a failed hypothesis. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Compare this to Morocco, where I grew up, which is an actual police state and has checkpoints all over the place. But there I never had any issue arguing with the cop (or claiming not to speak French) until he gave up and let me go. Because while they were everywhere they were even less trusted by their superiors and so were never empowered to do anything. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Happy Death to Tyrants Day! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab When I’m not building stuff… sailing on Hagg Lake made for a lovely afternoon. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab “Unfortunately, issues like this need to be addressed on a case by case basis, which is something the state is entirely too incompetent to ever do.” npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Who cares what the parents have to say? The state has removed their voice in such matters where I live. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Om namah shivay! Om namah shivay! Om namah shivay! Kali maa npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Not peppery but it is mustardy but not spicy. We also have a bunch of red veined sorrel that is kind of tangy. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab We’ve been throwing it in our salads this year (at least the red streaks mizuna) version I’ve been growing. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I’ve got to try to make some more biltong. My stash is running low. Course I don’t know what “real” biltong tastes like, I just know I prefer what I’ve made from online recipes over the sugar heavy American style jerky. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Did something like this a few months back, but started with a 4-5 hour cold smoke instead of liquid smoke. And then tried to crisp it up in the insta-pot air fryer. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Process it through a duck first. #muscovy npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab #[2] did an answer on this on his show a few months back. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Its surprising how loud the phone can be just sitting upright in my case and echoing in that little cavity created around the speaker. The buckets got to be next level. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Survived it without panic I hope? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I have an apartment for rent, in Cornelius, OR. Where should I post it, especially to attract BTC folks? npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Yay for seller financing! 3.5 hours is a bit far for me to go to do development work though. I like to stick to 45 min. from home. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Do they patrol for this? I have ignored many "gun free" signs as (currently and in Oregon) until they ask me to leave and I refuse, ignoring that sign has no legal ramifications. I will usually keep it concealed at that point, and I will try to find alternative locations to do business if possible, but I won't overly restrict my life because of others expressed preferences. If they catch me and choose to ban me, I will respect that ban, but such signs/regulations are often created by a small number of busy-bodies and may not reflect the bulk of the other employees, much less the customers. In the end, freedom is a choice, and as long as I'm not committing violence against another or their property, my conscious is clear. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I invest in a great many things: stocks, supplies, skills, social, real estate. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Love that table. I’m sure I’d enjoy the spread too. But I have nostalgic longing for the tiled tabletops from my youth (in Morocco with frequent travels through Europe). npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Well, this happened today. My first duckling! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Not yet, but I need to print up a new round of cards, and thinking I might add it npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab My liking myself is permanently there as one of the first actions I took on nostr, while pressing buttons to see what they meant. Since then I've stopped liking stuff and just zap it when it's awesome. There is no undo in nostr, which always frustrates me as I tend to re-read my stuff right after I post and only then do I catch my smelling mistakes. [sic] npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I assume everyone has listened to Dan Carlin's stuff. In a very different vein however, I've been listening to some of the guests that Pete Quinones (freemanbeyondthewall.com) has on. He recently had Thomas777 doing a 16-part series on the Cold War for example. Not all of his show is historical, but he has had several micro-histories of various topics I've found enjoyable to listen to. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Yesterday the Oregon Senate Republicans walked out to deny the Democrats a quorum. I've got to say, the best legislature is a shut-down legislature. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Add another to be the slogan trash pile: npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab For a while longer yet. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Words I've lived by since I first read them. Love this quote! npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Also I’m terrible at remembering hashtags. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Somethings just get done for nostalgia. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab That telehandler is awesome! 42’ reach 8klbs lift and 4 wheel crab steer. The advantages of being a home builder. Sometimes equipment needs to be stored at my place and not the jobsite. Of course moving it from site to site is a process, it weighs 26klbs. But my next framing job is only 3 miles away, so I can road it there. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab The time is here! The garden beds I’ve been working on in my spare time since last fall are finally ready to be filled. Or put another way, we finally got a dry week this spring such that the pastures are finally drivable. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Anyone else heard of the Journal of Controversial Ideas? https://www.journalofcontroversialideas.org npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab Unfortunately, for some it is. Reasons to talk to people about who they are, since not everyone's use of labels will match my own. There comes a point though, that I just wonder, are they intentionally mis-using the label, or am I just jaded at how many times I think someone gets it to discover that what they "get" is not what I get. Be it poly or anarchy :P npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I’ve added a couple of your episodes to my fountain queue, give you a listen in the next day or two. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I keep wanting to go down this route, but I never feel like I have enough cohesive value to talk for more than a couple episodes. It's all haphazard thoughts of: this worked great, don't do this, that might work but in a desert, not outside PDX. But it's such a mix of day-job construction knowledge, homesteading stuff, general life, that I don't feel I have a good central tenant to bound potential content together. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab But the weather has been so nice the past few days. This weekend the ground will finally be dry enough I can get equipment in to fill my new garden beds npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab There are downsides to the jumping in approach. The number of times I've had to redo things because I just wanted to see progress, and a little more research might have provided greater illumination up front. I do a lot of planning, but often feel unaccomplished when doing that prep work, and just want to get started to see physical progress on something. npub1rccegnzfltylh998jsj48z0j43pu5uqq9st6j3h3j4jz5ehy7nxs9ymawc BlackSheepRehab I could keep bond paper safe, but to convert back out of it to pay my employees or to show proof of funds in order to purchase a new property, I’d still need an institution to go through.
