Three wonderful days in NYC.
Last time I went was in 2017.
Observations as an outsider.
Prices were up (£ gets you less $ than before)
Groceries were so high. 400g pot of yogurt was $10 in UK more like £2.
Food portions are still massive. Did a lot of sharing.
The city felt very similar to last time. I was expecting to see a lot more decay but wasn’t massively obvious to a tourist.
People were really friendly and I would happily go back.
Sometimes we hear lots of bad things and then the reality is not so bad. Probably like news about stabbings in London being really bad but when you go there it’s totally fine.
I think we can all agree that decay is happening but places like NYC are still really fun and is a great place to visit. Just need to save up.

2025-02-18 18:15:47

Only went and did a pod cast.

I sell my feasts in £ but accept bitcoin as payment and just get the spot price. I guess when my feast is £60 a meal it’s easy to value but as sats it would be 77,000 sats which I think sounds like a lot of generation wealth to hand over where as £60 for a meal is kind of normal. Don’t know, hard one to call.

Today my bakery (hobbs house bakery) has launched a new version of our classic wild white sourdough. Made with local organic “Mari’s Wigeon” flour grown butcarmer John Prior in Castle comb. This loaf not only looks and taste great, it’s totally distance travelled is 47miles from farm to mill to bakery and it support a great British farmer. You can get this loaf on our website and at Able and Cole if you’re a customer. 🫡

So who’s betting against tax rises in the coming months!! Everything is starting to look like a complete shit show. I just hope and pray that more realize it’s all broken and see bitcoin as a viable way out. Still so frustrating that friends and fam just don’t want to talk about it. Bitcoin forces you to become so patient in more ways than one.

I have been pondering writing a section on my website about why I dig Bitcoin and accept it as payment. Question I have is. No one is asking me so why bother. Is it just to show solidarity with the fellow plebs who know already. What am I hoping to achieve.
Basically should I just shut the fuck up, cooks some tasty food, give people a good time and carry on or is there value is sharing why I buy bitcoin with the money taken?
Thanks

I have been trying to get my family bakery to adopt bitcoin (no avail so far 🤦🏻‍♂️) we are a 5th generation business but we are growing slower than inflation which I know will slowly (them quickly) kill us. The business will just get a bit shitter for all involved as we have to either take on debt to grow or the money we make doesn’t go as far. Without Bitcoin I don’t think we will survive (on our current business plan - which is making delicious artics products) sadly the margins are too low, the growth is hard won and the product is labour intensive. This in itself shouldn’t be a problem for running a good business that provides for its staff and owners but with the inflation hurdle rate being set so high we can’t keep up. In say 1 out of 3 years we might make more profit (after tax 🤦🏻‍♂️) that beats inflation but there are always difficult years where we don’t. Then it’s just a matter of time.
If we put Bitcoin into our business it would do a few things. 1) build value that grows faster than we can make in our current business.
2) make us more prudent with our capital. We are guilty of wasting money trying to do things to grow the business that fail. We should really just do what we are good at and let Bitcoin help us the rest of the way.
It’s very simple in my mind but not to them 🤦🏻‍♂️
I will keep trying though

Well I would say they came out pretty good. Interestingly the fat smell you normally get with deep frying didn’t happen with the tallow and the chips tasted so good. 🤌🏻🫡

@npub1kyk…ea0g a few years ago I got a dog, the vet recommended a premium brand of puppy food. After paying for the food I felt quite peeved. A few months before I had been in India and there a load of pretty healthy street dogs and they certainly weren’t eating expensive puppy biscuits. So I did a bit of research and adopted the raw food diet for my dog. I was thinking how we have all been duped into thinking a dog needs dry biscuits. But you can then see this in our own lives and how we are constantly being told what to eat etc. maybe I should take a leaf out of my own book!

I would boil them for 15mins or until just giving, drain. Crush lightly and roast alongside the chicken for the last 30mins in the fat.

This sounds about right. Free market principles based on sound money but with a caring community that voluntarily helps each other. The question is, is Stroud about to flip to this way of thinking and continue to build its community but based on the free market or will it continue on its path of socialism and Things will slowly get worse for them?.
For me this is conflicting as I love the town and it has some really cool people in there however it certainly leans towards socialism with an excellent community spirit

Totally. My next plan is to try and get the long table to accept bitcoin payments. The guy who started it has started buying bitcoin personally so it’s only a small step to get them to accept as a payment. The green agenda might be a barrier but there is so much good info out on the green benefits of bitcoin that I think I can sway them. One merchant at a time.
