I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 8 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

As expected, I blew past 35,900 Hive Power yesterday afternoon, which means that I should easily smash 36,000 Hive Power by around the middle of this new week. Even with the APR for Hive Power continuing to fall (that's a good thing, along with, and connected to the falling Hive Debt), my HP is still growing at a very solid pace. The faster it increases, the better, as I have a lot of HP to delegate!

Over the past two weeks I've had to remove and reallocate assets from two liquidity pools, SWAP.HIVE:LASSECASH and SWAP.HIVE:ATF. LASSECASH was moved to Magi/VSC last week, with its Hive-Engine counterpart becoming useless. The ATF project officially announced the end of the ATF token and pool yesterday, which is another sad loss. Both tokens were swapped for SWAP.HIVE and allocated to other good pools. This provided a good chunk of investment liquidity, that was very much needed, both on my account, and on some of our 'We Are Alive Tribe' accounts.

On the topic of diesel/liquidity pools, my autonomous pool agent is coming along quite well indeed, and it's getting a bit better every day, as my Hermes Agent and I continue with tweaking, testing, and refining it as we go. It definitely still needs some work, however. There are so many aspects, components, and nuances to managing pools, and leveraging and growing assets in them well.

With the investment liquidity from the deceased SWAP.HIVE:ATF pool, I did another round of pool management on my own account yesterday, and on @aliveandthriving this morning. I still have to do the same on @heartbeatvault01 and @heartbeatonhive, which I'll do my best to complete in the next day or so. Soon, my pool agent will be able to handle this as well, or perhaps better, than I do. We shall see indeed, but that's the target.

Once this new autonomous liquidity-pool agent is finally at a place where I'm satisfied with its operational performance, then I'll roll it out to begin managing pools on the four 'We Are Alive Tribe' accounts where I presently manage pool. Also, since my limited time would no longer be a constraint, I may even set it to manage pools on most of our WAAT accounts, which should increase our asset income quite nicely. This is a very fun and interesting endeavor, with an immense amount of beneficial potential.

Yesterday, Sunday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my numerous Sunday Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by a little after 3PM, giving my attention first to some photography for my posts. Since it was Sunday, I didn't really feel like diving into any large land-work task, though I did get a couple smaller tasks done. After going to hang out with Avi for a short while, talking about Linux, AI, AI Agents, and Agentic-AI systems, I went to make myself some food, and to collect my leftover superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, before heading back to the Flow House, to work a bit more with Hermes, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I had a whole lot of notifications last night, so I wasn't able to get through them all before I had to stop to go to bed by a little after 10:30PM. I woke up around 8AM, still feeling that I needed a bit more sleep, going to prepare my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, then returning to the Flow House to prepare my Weekly-Hive-Goals-and-Progress Update to write later, to work with Hermes some more, and to write this post. It's now just before 1:30PM, so it's a wonderful time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on some photography for my posts, and then on some jungle-community/land work and tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my Weekly-Hive-Goals-and-Progress Update as soon as I'm able to get it done, and the next version of these posts tomorrow afternoon! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2026 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Bradley's tenaciously committed and all-in on Hive for the long haul (just like me!), and the higher his witness goes in the ranking, the higher the weekly BBH and BBHO dividend payouts will be!
