[TIL] The first documented gold found in the United States was discovered by 12-year-old John Reed, who pulled a 17-pound gold nugget from a North Carolina creek. Unsure of the substance, Reed's family used the nugget as a doorstop for several years before selling it to a jeweler for $3.50. reddit.com/r/todayilearne…

Walked into a Reeds Jewelers today in Maryland and the manager had no idea what bitcoin was.

According to the website:

You can now use bitcoin to buy fine jewelry and watches, ranging from engagement rings to Pandora charms, in all REEDS Jewelers locations and online at REEDS.com.

Has anyone bought anything (or tried to buy something) at a Reeds retail location? Was this an isolated incident?

Conjunction | Part 1

Conjunction Cover

When an ecological disaster threatens to plunge Caden's kingdom into a famine, he must journey to a ruined city in search of an ancient artifact that is rumored to be capable of commanding the heavens themselves. Unbeknownst to him, the city is protected by a fierce tribe of reptilian warriors who view it as sacred, and who will kill to protect its sanctity.

Conjunction is a fantasy story that features action, adventure, and romance elements.

Please note: this story contains adult content which will be tagged on a per-chapter basis.

CHAPTER 1: ENDLESS SUMMER

The sun beat down on Caden as he made his way through the narrow, winding alleys, its harsh light baking the paved streets enough that he could feel it through the soles of his boots. He wrapped his cloak more tightly about his shoulders, its drooping hood casting a dark shadow over his face. There were few who would brave the streets these days, he only encountered a handful of people who were going about their business, all of them sticking to the shadows of the buildings as they skirted the glare. The white and beige facades of the timber-framed structures seemed to glow such that he found himself averting his eyes, their narrow windows protected by wooden shutters in the vain hope of keeping out the pervasive heat, their towering brick chimneys long idle. He could see the heat haze coming off their sloping, tiled roofs, making the air above them shimmer like a mirage. They had been fashioned to ward off rain and snow, not to endure these temperatures.

Where once the city had been overflowing with greenery, now the patches of grass were yellow and sickly, the once-proud trees wilting. Caden remembered a time when each and every home had sported window boxes that overflowed with lush flowers, their bright colors, and their wonderful scents raising the spirits of the townsfolk. Now, they lay empty, the gardens left untended. There were no bees buzzing from blossom to blossom anymore, no butterflies fluttering on the breeze.

It was noon, but that term was slowly losing its meaning. The days grew ever longer, the sun lingering in the heavens, the cloudless sky as deep a blue as he had ever seen it. How long had it been since he had felt the rain on his face? When exactly had the seasons ground to a halt, plunging the world into an unending summer? He had become accustomed to this such that it was starting to feel normal, and that thought

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Hongzhi: Religious Verses

As discussed with linseed yesterday, this book is wearing on me. I read the last dozen passages myself yesterday in about a third of an hour, and they are much as has been discussed before. Feel free to do the same if you have a copy.

I am interested in the poetry though, so here is the first set. If anything stands out, we can discuss it. If not, Happy New Year.

As I go forward, I will continue the last few posts with highlighting the poetry, leaving to others to start their own discussions. I do note that the flow of the poetry is excellent.

Poem to Manjushri Bodhisattva

The great being Manjushri stirs the breeze of reality.

Wisdom probes the ignorance and dispels the longtime darkness.

Eye cataracts worn away, illusory flowers naturally fade.

Spirit radiance simply shines; recurring falseness dissolves.

The wooden man steps round, and starts to return to his place;

The jade woman pivots and turns, procuring further merit.

The primary principle is sustained to see the question at hand.

All gates in transformation, such is his divine power.

Poem to Samantabhadra Bodhisattva

The livelihood of my house is nature's source,

In all lands countless as dusts, Samantabhadra is seen.

A rhinoceros horn has a single point; a toad's shadow is transparent.

The spirit jewel has nine facets; a line of ants is penetrating.

Awakening has no gradual stages and erases embroidered edges.

Illusions naturally melt away and blend into the circle.

The wondrous response pervades the body without front or back.

The ancient flower mirror is not stained by dazzling beauty.

Poem to Universal Vision Bodhisattva

Who will follow Universal Vision and come to the seat of awakening??

In front of the supreme heaven, the jewel net opens.

Total radiance fulfills one stage;

This inner purity severs all subtle attachments.

In the interlaced net of principle and phenomena, true emptiness appears.

Shining to obliterate the fundamental delusion, it's not just a lamppost.

This auspicious occasion is your opportunity.

Above the potter's shop rise darts of thunder.

Poem to Maitreya Bodhisattva

The roots of ignorance and seeds of attachment are firmly plowed open.

The first stage of spiritual understanding is the cherished foundation.

The heavenly being inserts a blade of grass and deeply grasps the meaning.

The World Honored One twirls a flower; he smiles and blinks his eyes.

*Mahasattva Fu rel

We all know the big names out there. College Hoover, Melanie Harlow, Christina Lauren, Jewel E. Ann,

Who are the authors who surprised you and weren't on your radar before? Super well written and artfully crafted stories?

Kate Canterbary - her vocabulary is ridic. I have never read a series where I looked up word definitions as frequently as I did with her books. And I loved it. Anything she writes, I'll read.

Carian Cole - the entire Ashes & Embers series is πŸ”₯ and very well written.
