Yeah. What's the plan?

Yes, this is exactly what I was thinking! Can't believe nobody is on this yet. Liquid is so powerful, yet largely ignored.

Am I your first follower? Well, welcome to Nostr!

Pres. Bukele seems to believe that representative government is failing. I think he wants to be a king or some such. And I think he would be a good one. The representative government in US is a mess, but we have no worthy king candidates, fools only.

For me I think it's the idea that more can be possible in sci-fi & fantasy than in the mundane world. Explore a floating castle in the sky, fight with high-tech gizmos, ride a dragon, or whatever else.

At this stage in my lit journey, I prize good writing, which can be difficult to find. I'm currently slogging thru Wheel of Time, which has an interesting plot, but the editor needed to take a stronger hand in helping Jordan with his style. An exemplary set is Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicles, but, alas, it STILL isn't done.

One thing I identify as good writing is a character who can make you laugh or cry. A book that can create emotion is a win for me. When Samwise says, "I can't carry the ring for you, but I can carry you," that's a line that stays with a generation of readers. Eragon's unrequited love of Arya seemed well done to me. Name of the Wind is absolutely chock full of emtional encounters with the main character as he makes friends and enemies.

That's a good one!

🤯 Onward and upward

yes please! I follow you on X, but NOSTR is better in terms of freedom.

Yes my wife and I enjoy these in the cold season. Refer to the book "Outlive" for a review of sauna research. If memory serves, a 20-min sauna at 165 F several times a week produces markedly improved longevity. But as you know, grip strength is one of the best indicators of longevity. The book lists numerous beneficial practices and tests. But yeah cold plunges and sauna are great. Oh I forgot to mention, it appears research is showing the majority benefit of cold can be achieved at temp of 65F. So you may not need the ice after all. 65 can feel pretty good after being in it for about 30 seconds.

Could be they are priming inhabitants for the need to be surveiled and controlled. Create the priblem; provide the solution

wait, better than coldcard? I'll have to read your article.

"We think it was Russia," say Western media outlets. It surely couldn't have anything to do with the waves of new immigrants who are burning your flags, could it? Of all the things Russia could do, they're going to mess with your rail system? Please
