just got back from a surf trip within the country |

we passed by Dominical twice, pretty cool to see many of the vendors there accepting bitcoin, even if it was in the lightning network form |

Oh I went to a cafe there that accepted bitcoin. Actually ran into the owners in Santa Ana. |

i met a very bright 13yo kid there, he has a large vocabulary for his/any age , his mom has taken him traveling all over the world, never put him in school and moves a library with him |

Lucky kid, except for perhaps the absent dad |

they started talking to me about bitcoin and then after a very extended conversation they invited me to Citrus in Ojochal, incredibly good restaraunt |

awt: yup, quite lucky kid, not sure exactly the details of his relation with his dad other than the dad lives in Turkey. I will probably try to get him communicating with me via Pest soon so he may pop in the channel sometime in the near future |

I hope he joins. |

saving everyone a trip to google translate, which doesn't help: "here he is, the dungeon avenger, the fighting sculptor - in a black Chechen, with a hand on the hilt" |
| 16:31 |
phf |
that's why i've not even attempted to translate, it's a particularly gnarly tsvetaeva poem, with a chapter about wrangel |
| 16:33 |
phf |
man, that google translation is awful, i'm just going to do meaning translation then, |
| 16:36 |
phf |
there he is, the avenger for the interrogation rooms, the sculptor of battles - in a black woolen coat, with a hand of on the hilt |
| 16:50 |
phf |
was trying to find the canonical english name for his coat (it's variously named from or after the various caucasus tribes that wore it, tsvetaeva in her poem calls is "chechenka" after chechens, but in russian it'll be more commonly named "cherkeska" after circassians), and was reminded again that wikipedia is trash, but |

it's particularly bad now when it comes to politically charged topics. all kinds of retcon and propaganda in the articles related to cossacks |
