@leahpeah I always push the date on half n half. Once I attempted to use 2+ month expired. I have succeeded w/ 3 weeks beyond. Luck to you!
The new phone OS update changed the location of the ! mark. Arghhh!@!!@!!@ it also likes to incorrectly correct. I like the font though.
In other news, I've been composing a love letter to Spike Jonez in my head for days. I've also been heart broken for the same time.
@leahpeah I used to travel a lot and would always try my expired half n half. Course, sometimes the refrig had not been opened in that time.
We made it through the cold war. We'll make it through this NSA BS.
Dear @shanenickerson sending you some old school bloggy <3 this morning. Thanks for keeping it real.
@MadelineAshby intriguing, I had not considered that.
@Ruth666 Love it!

@Ruth666 @davidzmorris Hello!
@leimer Cool! Thanks! Happy to hear your thoughts anytime!

@davidzmorris I know some are looking at Bitcoin as a platform. And I understand it as a way to communicate securities information.
@davidzmorris I'm not sure what you mean by zero-trust contracts.
@davidzmorris I see Bitcoin as a different kind of paradigm platform. Those uses are braiding into a securitization/stock market paradigm.
Being 100% responsible for your life is sometimes terrifying. Awesome, but terrifying.

All this Bitcoin silkroad stuff is a red herring, because the r/evolution has already begun.
@SSquire Indeed.
@sblackmoore Exactly. I suppose all the sensationalism is positive news for the longevity of the currency. #bitcoin
@sblackmoore Yeah! I still like thinking about a currency for your world of the dead. ;) [perhaps that currency is karma]
