Also I’m in luck, there is one other person masked out of about two dozen people in the conference room I am now in. Mask buddy.

Wrex Ruckus posted:I'm not made of money you can get a quarter pound of CBD flower from cbdhempdirect for $40 https://cbdhemp.direct/collections/cbd-flower/products/quarter-pound-bulk-cbd-hemp-flower-for-sale?variant=39280189571117 then you can do a QWET (https://www.safeleaf.ca/ethanol-alcohol-extraction-crafting-concentrates-for-medicine-smoking-and-edibles/) and if you're lazy/cheap you can use isopropyl instead of ethanol, just make sure you let that stuff cure for a very long time until it's hard; doesn't hurt to toss in an oven at 170 after your pyrex pan has evaporated all the alcohol, to cook out whatever residuals you can ignoring the labor and cost of alcohol and assuming 20% loss this works out to 18 grams of CBD oil for $40, or $2-3 per gram compare that to https://penguincbd.com/products/cbd-gummies where 300mg of CBD is $45, so a gram is $150 all these same basic numbers apply to cannabis with the exception that you can't usually get quaps of 20% THC flower for $40. But, this should all explain why I grow my own and make my own shatter with considerable effort, because it ends up being $4-6/gram for shatter/oil vs $30-50 at the dispensaries or $25-35 for unground poo poo that may be poorly purged BHO the point of this whole post is just that the CBD market is a fuckin sucker's game and if you want to use a bunch of CBD just make your own drat oil, there's many simple ways to do so in the kitchen. PM me if you have questions or better yet hit up the serious about weed thread in TCC, processing CBD flower is identical to processing THC flower. ALL that said -- I am still waiting for some really good evidence in humans that oral consumption or vaped CBD actually meaningfully lowers your COVID risk. Probably can't hurt, as long as trace THC is very very low.

On the one hand, I would like to forever escape to the blissful land of low stress wfh and try to figure out how to meaningfully live life from there. On the other hand, I could do a bunch of stimulants and crank out a couple actuary exams so I can get a job looking at the forbidden actuarial tables on covid and go even further insane. Decisions decisions.....

Do yourself a favor and build a mini CR cube for your office - that's what I did so that when I'm working on-site I can close the door and have a safe spot to eat lunch (my office is basically a closet so I don't think it takes long to get an air change  ). The only person who's given me any sass about it is a retired nurse (!) who argued with me back in March '20 that covid would be a big nothingburger  Gotta love those blue MAGA types!

Vice's coverage of the Kid Rock cruise sounded like a hepatitis disaster and that was a decade ago. https://www.gq.com/story/kid-rock-annual-cruise-gq-june-2013 quote:The ship is huge. HUGE. It's the kind of ship you gawk at from the highway. It's nearly 1,000 feet long and fifteen stories high. For our voyage, it has been stocked with 26,000 eggs, 357 gallons of ice cream, 8,000 pounds of beef, 1,484 pounds of cheese, and 643 pounds of coffee. There's also 12,568 pounds of fruit, none of which will be eaten.
