Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!
I'm going where the climate suits my clothes.

Thursday night football. Let’s go!
I know this is off topic, but I'm curious if you know anything about Orphans Of Uganda charity? I'm thinking of doing a Satsraiser and I would like your opinion
I have no insight just my small donation I made on geyser
Thanks. Do you know if Geyser has any vetting process? I'm impressed with this orphanage but I want to do my homework before asking everyone to donate to a Satsraiser.
I can’t say I know anything Was going to ask if you could recommend a charity for some spare sats.
I like the idea of finding a small charity where we can really make an impact. I also want to be careful and do some research first. I am corresponding with the man who founded Orphans of Uganda. I will keep you posted.
Of course - and you thought all that due diligence work was behind you…
And no pressure but it does seem you have been nominated as the default ‘sat-raiser wrangler’ round these parts. I think the default hating will have to be Bitcoin For Change in the meantime.
I like that. Reminds me if those Playing For Change videos.

You can do a lot of cool stuff with venom. I used to work next to a company that harvested taratulas and scorpions for this purpose.

Seems like a very slow day in the Saloon. Maybe its time to assemble the Avengers. https://imgprxy.stacker.news/Kj7Nws332B1wXlwgJ8VrBbhv5jt7SjkDf9MyeyazCXU/rs:fit:600:500:0/g:no/aHR0cHM6Ly9pLmliYi5jby9RUFJNSlgzL256bWsxNW5vaHM1NTEuanBn
Happy with more leisurely session every once in a while. Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with everyone and still maintain a job in fiatland!
True that. I also find juggling between my job and replying on SN a bit challenging. I'm sure things will get crazier during as the day progress.
I love the fact people roll in at different times and altering the dynamic over the course of the day…

Can't remember the name, but on a podcast a month or two ago, there were 3 or 4 guys talking about how much they'd learned from their grandfathers - not their fathers. One guy even remarked that it was interesting that their fathers appeared to have had less of an influence/impact on their values, lives, upbringing, etc. than their granddads did.
Since I never got to meet my grandfathers, I was wondering how typical such an experience (perception?) may be.
What did you learn from your grandparents that your parents didn't necessarily care too much about?
https://imgprxy.stacker.news/2Bd0TEbD4sJXtnlAucCsdUKLzlBliCQ9kLE4TOiIwgQ/rs:fit:600:500:0/g:no/aHR0cHM6Ly9pLnBvc3RpbWcuY2MveVlIV3pqd0gvZGFsYWktbGFtYS5qcGc
I knew both my grandfathers and one great grandfather, who made it to 101. One grandfather believed a shot of whiskey before bed was good for a child who was sick. My parents disagreed. My great grandfather drank wine all day and kept a low wage, low stress job. Claimed it was the secret to his longevity. My other grandfather drank his way through the depression and remained unemployed most of his life. He's the reason my father worked his ass off and gave me a strong work ethic.
Thanks for sharing.
My father passed away well before I was 25, but not before instilling his strong work ethic in me too.
For me it's nothing. I have two awesome extremely high character parents. I knew three of my grandparents, but one died when I was little and I view the other two more as cautionary tales (which is a way of learning from them, I guess).
And yet, you're literally 'Undisciplined'? Just kidding, of course.
But seriously, heart-warming to know your parents are there for you!

What's her name?
Terry (from terrorist). She's a "terrorist". Very sharp and playful. But very lovely, kissing you all day.
Lol. You just reminded me of this Key & Peele skit. https://imgprxy.stacker.news/GXUglALrXfin1v6bVU9Pe5tpG7xUr71tB9vDv70vX-o/rs:fit:600:500:0/g:no/aHR0cHM6Ly82NC5tZWRpYS50dW1ibHIuY29tLzNmYTJkZTRmZTMxNjZiZDY0NjE0NDcxODllYzNhZWQ2L2U1NDYxOGY5MmNkYzRiN2UtMDgvczUwMHg3NTAvY2QwODQyMjkxMTRmMDA5ZGE3YmZkOWQ2ZDc0MzlhOWRmZjEwMzBlZi5naWZ2
This is one of their best, I still laugh every time. I love how the one guy keeps inserting literary references "we gon' get our Bergeron" (Harrison Bergeron) and "you in the combat seat, Jonathan Livingston Seagull"
Key & Peele never disappoint. I think I've watched all their skits at least twice.

Just returned from the gym.
Also, very pleased this morning to have lost enough weight to see a number on the scale I haven't seen in, I don't know, maybe 15 years.
Nothing succeeds like success.
Talk about proof of work!
Never thought of it that way. At least not consciously. I like it, thanks!
Keep that ball rolling. Great job!

ᕦ(ò_óˇ)Day 13 of exercising everyday before the saloon opensSet the alarm to 9AM instead of 7:30AM now. That obviously worked way better. But I still need to go to bed earlier. Went to bed at 2AM yesterday. 8 hours of sleep would be nice.
Went to the calisthenics park and ... oh no, I forgot to take a picture again! Just noticed, lol
Regular workout with some jumping frog squats. This means 10 inclined push-ups, 10 squats, 9-12 frog squats, 10 inverted rows. Tried to also do 10 knee raises but my core did already hurt after the first one. Did this routine 3 times.
I also learned today that these push-ups that are not 100% vertical are called inclined push-ups. I think I mentioned this at the beginning that I am not fully vertical proper push-ups but I may did not mention this anymore. Please forgive me, lol
Doing 6 of these jumping frog squats was already quite challenging. Tried to do 9-12 (since I can do 3 in one direction) before I move on to the next exercise.
The inclined push-ups feel way better now. I will probably go more vertical next time.
At the end, I did some step-ups and 45s supermans with 15s breaks for 3 minutes. While doing it, I noticed that if you shift your perspective, you can actually imagine yourself flying like superman. You just have to imagine that what you're looking at is not the ground in front of your face but actually very far away, lol
So my MOTD is: Shift your perspective!
Well done!
Incline press are good but don’t be afraid to try some on your knees (box press / 3/4 press etc) as it works the chest through a similar range-of-motion to a standard (horizontal to the ground) press up. Eventually you will get there…. And squeeze those glutes!
For every incline press up there is a decline press up around the corner on your fitness journey!
These posts are inspiring, @ekzyis. I have been putting off any exercise other than normal chores and walking the dog for a while. Age is catching up to me. For the past week or so I have been using a treadmill, gradually building incline and speed. I need to keep moving to hopefully reverse some of this old guy joint stiffness.
Age is just a number….. and sometimes it is a very large one!
A few squats if you can would be good. Maybe at a halfway point on the dog walk? Do them over a bench or log etc if you are worried about going too far down (it’s a sit-down, stand up, sit-down repeated). Just don’t actually sit lol.
I uses to do squats with free weights back in the day. Loved the feeling when the workout was done. Now, just a regular squat is a challenge
Yeah - I struggle with the changes that come with age, especially since mind thinks I am still 18 and stupid.
Body weight squats this week and we can do Olympic lifts next week…. maybe.

Perhaps we should be thanking Gensler for the cheap corn?
I can't wait to see the subpoenaed docs he's been withholding re his communications with SBF and his mother.
Likewise, the conflicts of interest are so obvious, and so dirty
The fallout won’t be kind… just release the docs and face the music / public

It will be a steady parade of seedy schills until the public cry ‘enough!’

You are such conspiratorial today Natalia.
She also mentioned about the soul and the invisible, even some of the things I think are only movie scenes, yet she has friends who have been through.
I also asked her why sometimes, when I am upset or unhappy with some accumulated negative thoughts in my mind, then the related person would approach me later that day - did this happen to you too?
And conspiracy theory of today - no, I don't believe we are descended from monkeys.

Also look at the evolution of bitcoin memes
which one?
not one in particular, but I remember the ones in 2013-2014 were quite simple and the message wasn't so sharp like today. Nowadays the memes are quite complex with deep messages.
For example such a meme would not have such powerful meaning in 2013, like today. https://postimg.cc/MMd3t7jY
