This article feels like it was written by an old man yelling at clouds. "... Back in my day we smoked mid and we liked it" shakes fist and then uses it as a reason to go back to prohibition. Why can't we just make it legal and let the free market figure it out.
Turns out more THC for the buck means people can make a few months supply of edibles out of a few grams. Cost effective!
I like it pretty tart. I keep a bottle of honey simple syrup in the fridge, and I'll add a few drops if needed. I would say it's more tart than you'd get in the store.
The last pour of a 1L bottle though will have all the settled bits from the fruit, and that can be so sweet it's more like a juice. That is extra yummy.
A small bottle of buch with fresh raspberries for flavor. Brewed it in a 3.5gal jug, then transferred into 1L bottle for secondary ferment with the berries
An opinion that ignores all actual research.
Gender affirming surgery helps 99% of people who receive it! So sure, technically, there's a tiny minority who regret it. More people regret Lasik and boob jobs, should we ban those too? Many people regret a night out drinking, how about we ban that too. Drinking causes way more harm than giving estrogen or testosterone pills to folks.
On the other hand, I like that my friends have the freedom to express themselves any way they want. They aren't hurting anyone so let's let them be free to wear whatever clothes they want and take whatever hormones they want.
So join the side of American freedom and let's stop policing what clothes people wear or what name they use.
With an open field, who would you vote for president?
Now given the field has two candidates, who do you think will do a better job between the two? I'm actually curious to hear your answers and why.
Your comment here indicates you think being able to talk over others is an important part of the job. Why do you see that as an important attribute? Does the President of the most powerful country in the world often need to be the loudest person in the room? Do they need to dominate conversations, preventing other people from talking, to do their job effectively?
Make that hose in their hands an electric guitar and they're ready for the Waterworld equivalent of WITNESS ME
This looks uncannily like my shelf, I'm trying to buy land now for my permaculture forest 😭
When I first learned to bake bread and pizza.
Five years later I was 60lb/27kg heavier and needed to go on keto to break the bread habit. Sigh. Took me almost as long to lose an the weight, but I've kept it off now for almost ten years!
I've been in charge of hiring a few jobs now and I make sure to not care about any of the typical signals when interviewing. I tell recruiters and candidates alike that I'd "hire three raccoons in a trenchcoat if they could turn requirements into working code".
I've hired quite a few folks who didn't fit the typical mold, because they could write some sweet code. Who cares about eye contact, I want honest, hard working problem-solvers.
The biggest thing my less social folks struggle with (for anyone curious) is requirements gathering. That often takes interviews and repeated interactions with customers. But it's a skill like any other. Practice brings improvement!
OVER EGG THE PUDDING
I'm dying what a great phrase
I know a Thomas too! He's the straight cis eye of a queer hurricane. And it wasn't always this way, he just keeps pulling folks into his massive orbit. Folks who later realize they are queer. He never brings it up or even seems to notice.
I finally realized what's going on and it's just a little weird. Like, what the hell is going on? Do my friends even have free will?! Do I?!
I conclude that Thomas has such a pure heart and loves so freely that he innervates people with restless souls. They/we are drawn to this vibe like planets in his solar orbit.
I should write him a poem about this
Thomas' pure heart
Orbit for expanding souls
A queer hurricane

THE ORANGUTAN IS A STAND USER?!
(JoJo's Bizarre Adventures Stardust Crusaders rewatch)
I love that show so much. I rewatch it all the time
Yeah, TBF I was really just making a snarky dig at the misogyny in the evangelical world.
I can immediately think of a counter example: the Golden Compass. It's written by a man, but basically takes the stance that the devil is the good guy and has a main character whose best skill is the ability to lie so well she can pretty much always get what she wants. The church equivalent abuses children and looks the other way about it when confronted 💀
Unsurprisingly that series isn't too popular among fundies
Witchcraft is fine. Every evangelical I know was allowed to read Hobbit, LOTR, Dune, Narnia.
The problem is witchcraft written by women
Eugh watching him eat tomatoes was a terrible day to have eyes
A phone wallpaper from the game Celeste where the main character has a panic attack and you have to help her use her breath to float a feather in the air.
How is this game both so good and so hard?!
I love the way the light plays on the scene, and the workers taking a rest break under the shadow of a majestic peak. Such an epic scene!
A fun local legend of how it was built:
The people of Uri recruited the Devil for the difficult task of building the bridge. The Devil requested to receive the first thing to pass the bridge in exchange for his help. To trick the Devil, who expected to receive the soul of the first man to pass the bridge, the people of Uri sent across a dog by throwing a piece of bread, and the dog was promptly torn to pieces by the Devil. Enraged at having been tricked the Devil went to fetch a large rock to smash the bridge, but, carrying the rock back to the bridge, he came across a holy man who "scolded him" (der ihn bescholten) and forced him to drop the rock, which could still be seen on the path below Göschenen.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bimbo
The word bimbo derives from the Italian bimbo, a masculine-gender term that means "little or baby boy" or "young (male) child" (the feminine form of the Italian word is bimba).
As bimbo began to be used increasingly for females, exclusively male variations of the word began to surface, like mimbo and himbo, a backformation of bimbo, which refers to an unintelligent, but attractive, man.
