Only a few SF members from Florida, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, North & South Carolina, and Texas are in on this little secret...

Haven't seen the documentary. I could be wrong, but wasn't there some news months back about Melania setting up a bitcoin system?

Today's news says there's a revelation of a big crypto scam right now, for one form of crypto. But the most recent crypto-currency super bubble bursting was in 2018. It was huge and swept many crypto systems, and very many people lost a whole lot of money... a lot of personal tragedies...

Sure, either a contribution of time/energy or a modest bit of money.

My province, British Columbia (BC, part of Canada) lies below Alaska and above Washington state and Idaho. For thousands of years, numerous indigenous peoples lived here. Substantial interest by Europeans began in the late 1850s when gold was discovered in the south-central part of what is now...

I know that Aldous Huxley commented along those lines starting in the 1950s, and there was/is a YouTube where he's talking about it in a TV interview. Pretty sure he lectured on this theme. Of course, the internet didn't exist at that time (though I believe the military developed some precursor...

Getting colder, down around freezing at night. 5C (41F) by around 8:30am, then a high of around 10C (50F) in afternoon. Sometimes some brief light rains, too. But we're forecast to have highs around 17C (63F) a couple days from now.

Oh! (hee, hee, hee) So bad it's good.🥴☺️
