Folks are quite good at sensing when something in a building feels off, but struggle to name the why. Stone veneer is a classic example of rarely achieving the look of the real. Let's talk about one of the main reasons it fails to convince. Let's talk about the "Patio Problem".

@agbegin Call me weird, but I love watching plant and tree material decompose into compost. Seeing the improvement to my soil, the increase in the ability to manage unwanted volunteer species is huge. The list is long. 🧡😊

@shagbark_hick Side note: the "Story of Rhode Island" podcast is fantastic. The history of RI is very cool, and some of the spirit of its founding is still present throughout.

@shagbark_hick Overshadowed by BOS and NYC, but Prov and RI in general is a hidden gem in the northeast. Don't tell anybody though.. too much attention will ruin it 😁

Wrath Of Gnon@wrathofgnon·
An NGO that teaches you how to shape and cut timber frames like these houses (you get to pick your and customize your design from a catalog), then puts it as a flatpack together with roof tiles on a tram car out to a prepared location where you put your building up in little town groupings with other young people. You add the infill and interiors as you like and then lime-wash it in any of the colors on the approved palette. Lots randomly assigned. Could be a nice adventure. Start life without a mortgage and in a house that can grow with you and your family.

Were not mad, were just disappointed @SenJackReed. None-the-less we will continue our mission to #educate and #adopt #Bitcoin . #FreedomMoney #BitcoinIsForEveryone #RhodeIsland #USA #Pride #Relentless
Dan Hersey@DanHerseyRI

@halstonvalencia @SenWarren Equally frustrating day for @SenJackReed, who provided reflexive votes and didn’t listen to the dozens of @RIBitcoiners that called his office over the past few days. Voted in-step with Warren on everything, even for bipartisan amendments.

I had the opportunity to speak at the EDGE Tech Conference during one of their EDGEucation breakout sessions focused on Bitcoin. I extend my gratitude to all the credit union leaders who attended my session, demonstrating their curiosity and willingness to learn.

HUGE. Looks like we got a non-partisan vote out of Senate Banking with the BRCA still intact. I'm thrilled. The last minute compromise reflects Coin Center's analysis from last January, there were some steps forward since then and then back but we are feeling very comfortable.

@BitcoinPierre Reed, man. 🤦‍♂️
Andrew Begin@agbegin

⚓️ @SenJackReed Rhode Islander here. I urge you not to offer or support amendments that weaken BRCA’s protections for non-custodial developers, node operators, miners, validators, and wallet providers. Weakening BRCA would stifle innovation, reduce freedom, and hurt everyday Americans. Thank you for supporting CLARITY. Please keep developer protections intact.

The panic from the fiatbros about the Clarity Act has me reconsidering my skepticism!
Eleanor Terrett@EleanorTerrett

🚨NEW: Another one that stands out from @SenJackReed: An amendment that “prohibits crypto from being used as legal tender, for example, to pay taxes.” I think @Rep_Davidson introduced a bill to do that very thing (pay taxes) with $BTC last year. Also, more than 40 amendments from @SenWarren, one that would prevent the Federal Reserve from issuing master accounts to crypto companies.

News: Sen. Kennedy tells Semafor he will vote for the crypto market structure bill tomorrow in Banking Committee, meaning it will get out of committee regardless of what Dems do. More TK - He says he has a deal with Chairman Scott on "creating fiduciary duty for people within the crypto world” and adding his Build Now Act housing bill with Sen. Warren - He met with President Trump on Monday about the Road to Housing bill: "He's agreed to try to help with the overall housing bill with the couple of House members who are holding it up” - He says he’ll listen to Dem crypto amendments tomorrow but “I'm told there won't be an ethics provision. The chairman doesn't believe we have jurisdiction.” Still says it’s important and might get added on the Senate floor

We’ve been using this property as our real-time Bitcoin integration use case and results have been compelling fast. This move lets owners stack hard money, enhance cash flow, and keep it tax-efficient. Perfect example of CRE evolving with sound money principles. Mega bullish on this hybrid approach.
