I know plenty about that. Shatter is cheaper and just as effective. Man up and smoke hash.

Moon rocks are a novelty. But hey, smoke what you want, I'm not paying for it.

I can't watch people talking at a camera like that. poo poo is just off-putting.

Where the gently caress do you think I'm quarantined at? Istanbul or some poo poo? gently caress I've never seen that poo poo stateside. Also gently caress you, imma enjoy my Swiss chocolate novelty weed, all day.

There isn't a lot of aluminum in moon rocks. The big two are oxygen and silicon (which, I guess, is silica), followed by iron and calcium before aluminum.

Also Helium, which is just an alpha particle from radioactive decay that found some electrons. Once we start running out of helium, our options are to wait for a whole bunch more radon to decay, or harvest helium from something that has been bombarded by solar wind for eons, like the moon.

In phone calls with outside advisers, Trump has even floated trying to reopen much of the country before the end of this month, when the current federal recommendations to avoid social gatherings and work from home expire, the people said. Trump regularly looks at unemployment and stock market numbers, complaining that they are hurting his presidency and reelection prospects, the people said.

If we “reopen the economy” as soon as Trump wants, it’ll probably erase whatever gains we’ve made in fighting the virus while the economy still craters. So we’ll still have a severe recession or depression AND a lot of people dead.

This government is doing its best to get a lot of people killed.

The only reason that trespassing accusations weren’t made against Elizabeth Williamson, the Times reporter who wrote about Liberty on March 29, was because eyewitnesses could not be found, Falwell said.

I really like the Lynchburg area except this university and how local law enforcement treats the homeless there (another story entirely). It's becoming more and more of a "company" town where Falwell branded projects and businesses take precedence over all else.

Tax is next to nothing for medical, like 2%. Rec weed in Denver is taxed closer to 25%, but it's still affordable, ounces of flower around $100-150 after tax, wax closer to $20/g after tax.

Oh you can definitely pay more here. There are shops that still charge black market prohibition state prices.

Colorado Springs doesn't have rec weed, just medical. There are two rec shops Manitou Springs, they still charge $60/eighth after tax, because they're the only two rec shops in the county and people would have to drive to Denver or Pueblo to get rec otherwise.

I'm very glad my sister lost her job in Lynchburg.

Unfortunately she took a new one in Florida so she's even more doomed.

Then again she works for a professional sports team so she probably won't have a job for much longer.

Pretty much, BLM or parks. Difference is BLM land can be used for oil and gas exploration, cattle grazing, mining, that type of poo poo on lease.

It's why I'm considering the idea of travel-trailering at some point for a few years. Just move from BLM plot to BLM plot for a few weeks at a time.
