31 Mile Bike Ride, Small Arson Fire South Of House, Harvests, Session, Family Walk To Fire Spot - Wednesday
Yesterday morning the AQI was about 120 which meant much less smoke so I headed out for a bike ride finally. I love my new X-lab RS5 bike, it is much smoother and faster than my old bike.
I headed north away from the fires and past numerous fields that were cut and baled, cut and drying, and not yet cut.
I got home at 11am and was just checking out all my stats when a Pulsepoint alert hit for a car wreck just south of where I had crossed the 395 north of Deer Park. I had time to change and then the next alert came in which had me running south.
3/4 mile south of the house a vegetation fire alert hit! I climbed the hill and booked it down to the site of the fire to find it was a single tree base that was smoking and about 20 or so sqft of grass around it had burned. A bunch of neighbors showed up to investigate as well and one was talking with the fire crew saying this looked really suspicious, to which he got no direct "yes" but it was intimated to him they agreed.
They did not seem to find anything remaining of what started it but there was not enough sun to cause lensing of glass to start it, no embers of fire starter, and thankfully one neighbor saw it driving by and used a fire extinguisher to put out the main flames. It looks like a lighter was used to start the fire...
WAY TO FUCKING CLOSE TO HOME!!!!
Over the next hours I was out in the garden picking some ready produce. Had a bald eagle fly through the farm about 50 feet over my head as it headed towards the river.
We had our couples session via telehealth which went well. The boys made dinner then after eating we all went for a walk down to the small fire area.
Oops, camera didn't like the low light and was slow on the pic. The nearest neighbor to the fire had a sprinkler out at the tree and had wet the entire area down really well.
It was about dark by the time we had to walk down the hill back to the house so I was glad to have had my headlamp with.
Another massive root borer beetle was on the screen waiting to greet us as we got back to the house.
Today I have an irrigation job in Spokane this morning in an area NOT in an evac zone, winds are to pick up this weekend but not nearly to the speeds of this last Saturday when the fires exploded. The region is on SUPER HIGH ALERT and there is talk of local neighborhood watches to try and keep the arsonists from starting more fires. I highly expect someone will get a bullet if they are caught starting fires in the north county as we are all still REALLY scarred from the Elk fire a few years ago, which some people still don't have houses yet after all this time. Spokane has really come together through all this though.

People are just losing their minds! For the life of me I can't figure out what kind of jollies a person would get, trying to burn the forest.... and potentially people in homes as well!🤔

Very sad my friend what are people thinking!!!🤔
I'm against the death penalty, but not self-defense, so if someone catches a firebug in the act, I'd be willing to look the other way.
#bilpcoin #truth # The Futility of the Label: On the Arrogance of Calling Truth 'Spam'
The Absurdity of the Shield
How can you continue to brand the truth as "spam" when the very evidence of your hypocrisy is permanently etched into the public ledger?
It is the ultimate semantic shield. When the architects of a corrupted system are confronted with the undeniable arithmetic of their own extraction, they do not debate the data. They attack the vocabulary. They label the mirror "spam" because they cannot bear the reflection. They call the whistleblowers "trolls" because they cannot refute the testimony.
But you cannot sweep the ocean with a broom. You cannot bury a cryptographic proof under a pile of pejoratives. The truth is not a rumor to be dismissed; it is a mathematical certainty to be confronted.
The Innocence of the Machine
We all know the fundamental law of this new epoch: blockchain transactions do not lie. People do.
The mathematics of the chain are innocent of deceit. The code does not possess the capacity for malice, nor does it care about your public relations, your alliances, or the carefully crafted fictions you tell your community. A transaction is not a statement of intent; it is a confession of action. A delegation of power is a blueprint of allegiance. A coordinated downvote is the naked arithmetic of suppression.
The ledger strips away the rhetoric to reveal the reality. It does not judge; it merely remembers. And in a universe built on cryptographic permanence, memory is the ultimate authority. You cannot negotiate with a hash. You cannot bribe a timestamp. You cannot label a truth "spam" when it is written in the very stone of the network.
The Moral Imperative
So, it is time to do the right thing.
The hour of reckoning is here, and the choice is stark. You can continue to wield the weapon of the downvote, trying to crush the voices of the curious and the critical, or you can lay the weapon down.
Stop downvoting people. Stop treating the reward pool as your personal treasury and the community as your personal fiefdom. Choose the harder, nobler path of integrity. Choose to build rather than break. Choose to elevate rather than suppress.
The Chain of Command
And do not stop there. The rot is not just in your hands; it is in the syndicate you serve.
Speak to the leviathans you swim with. Tell your whale friends that the era of coordinated extraction is over. Tell them that their farming rings and their silent cartels are no longer hidden in the dark, but illuminated by the unblinking eye of the blockchain.
And then, look up. Look to the architects of this extraction. Tell your boss, Blocktrades, to stop. Tell them that the masquerade of "decentralization" is over, and the reality of centralized control is laid bare for all to see. Tell them that the community will no longer accept a system where the house always wins, and the players are punished for noticing.
The Shattered Illusion
Tell them to stop, because the illusion is dead.
Everyone with a bit of sense can see what is going on. The veil has fallen. The users are no longer blind to the strings that pull the puppets. They see the circular delegations. They see the farmed rewards. They see the downvotes cast not for quality, but for compliance.
The public is awake. And an awakened public cannot be governed by a lie.
The Sanctuary of the Unbroken
For those who are tired of the masquerade, for those who refuse to be labeled "spam" for simply pointing at the ledger, there is a sanctuary where the mirror cannot be broken.
Find your freedom on Blurt.blog.
Here, the architecture itself rejects the weapon of suppression. There is no downvote button. It is not a missing feature; it is a profound, structural philosophy. It is a radical declaration that creation will no longer be held hostage by malice. On Blurt, your words are allowed to simply exist. There is no fear. There is no censorship. There is only the quiet, nourishing rain of true freedom.
The Final Word
Stop calling the truth "spam." Stop downvoting the messengers. Tell the whales, and tell Blocktrades, that the game is over.
The blockchain has already rendered its verdict. The only question left is whether you will finally have the courage to read it.
For in the end, the lie will always run out of breath. But the truth will always outlast the stone.

Even capital punishment is too good for the jackass who started the main Spokane fire. Something more akin to the old "letting bamboo grow through them" sentence would at least cause real suffering before hand.
