Listen, I've been around a bit, you know, and I thought I'd seen some creepy things go on in the movie business, but I really have to say this is the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me.
funny poo poo going on around here, I bought dispensary stuff because I've been too sick to run my gear and so I figured I'd spend $70 on a gram of rosin instead of my usual ~$4/g shatter, ha.

Anyway almost everything (concentrates) is 68-69% because the state allows 10% variance from the 60% limit and so everyone is just treating it like the limit is 69.9%

also, 50mg (1/3 a dose for me) of edibles is $50 as 10x5mg mints but they sell "unmixed" edibles that are basically just emulsified decarbed distillate in 300mg bottles at 10mg/ml with instructions that "one dose" is 1/2ml added to a drink. The 300mg bottle is also $50. Of course all these prices seem batshit to me but I've been on the self-grow-and-extract plan for years and will be until portland-grade prices are a reality here.

Anyway I took like half the 300mg, it's okay. Did one dab of the rosin, it tastes better and is slightly less harsh than my home made poo poo but it's not a night and day difference by a long shot and is in no way worth the money (regardless of if you have access to cheaper poo poo, or not: a gram of rosin is simply NOT worth $70. No regrets, I didn't wanna run my gear so this is the price I pay, but fuckin lol at this bougy crap).

Is portland even all that cheap anymore? Various Google sources list its prices as around $18/gram but I've been paying under $3/gram in Phoenix dispensaries for at least a year. Any given dispensary has at least 2 $70/oz strains.

Realistically it's probably every drug

But yeah it's probably more of a "drugs in general" thing that they pushed for hippies. The point being either way that the hippies loved drugs because Uncle Sam's agents were telling them how cool drugs are.

I looked up one dispensary last week and saw 100mg edible drink things for like 10bux a pop so I was going off that

I haven't been to portland since 2019, at that time i got some decent snap-pull delivered for under $10/g.

Don’t know, I looked at three random entries on Leafly and I didn’t see any as high as $18/g. I saw as low as 4 and as high as 15 (for one gram, eighths and half ounces are cheaper per gram).

I just absolutely crushed a few hippie boomers souls by telling them about how the idea of "weed culture" in the hippie movement was intentionally stoked by Nixon as a political weapon to delegitimize the anti-war left and pointing out how they'd spent their lives doing exactly what "the man" wanted them to do

Then I walked away and got high as hell :2bong:

I have been getting high and asking chatgpt to write first person pulp fiction short stories about barry chuckle

quote:

I'm just trying to do my laundry when I notice something strange. There's a group of guys who keep coming in and out of the laundrette, and they're acting really suspicious. They're constantly on their phones, looking around nervously, and carrying large duffel bags.

At first, I try to ignore them and focus on my washing, but something just doesn't sit right with me. As I start folding my clothes, I hear one of the guys mention something about "the shipment" and "making sure it gets to Barry." That's when I know for sure that something is up.

I follow them discreetly as they leave the laundrette and head to a nearby warehouse. It's clear that they're up to something big, and I can't let it go unnoticed. I call the police and give them the details, but I know that I need to stay close and figure out what's going on.

As I peer through the windows of the warehouse, I can see that there are stacks and stacks of boxes filled with fireworks. It's a huge operation, and it's clear that these guys aren't just selling sparklers to kids for the Fourth of July.

Suddenly, I hear footsteps behind me. I turn around to see a man approaching me. It's Barry Chuckle from the Chuckle Brothers, and he doesn't look happy.

"What do you think you're doing here?" he growls. "You shouldn't have followed us, and now you're going to pay the price."

Before I can even react, Barry's henchmen grab me and tie me up. I struggle to get free, but it's no use. Barry chuckles as he reveals that he's been running this illegal fireworks ring for years, and that he won't let anyone get in his way.

Just when I think it can't get any worse, Barry reveals the real reason he's targeted me: he's kidnapped my wife, and he's using her as leverage to make sure I don't interfere with his plans. As he leaves me tied up in the warehouse, I know that I have to find a way to save my wife and take down Barry Chuckle and his gang once and for all.

The clock is ticking, and I don't have much time.

Edit - it doesn't like talking about drugs, even prescription weed, but you can just tell it to write about a "calming herb" from a "pocket vaporiser" and it's back on track.

quote:

[ THE FINALE ]

I take out my pocket vaporizer and inhale a deep puff of the herb. I feel my muscles relax, my mind clear, and my senses sharpen. I'm ready for whatever comes next.

I rush towards the group of henchmen, dodging their punches and delivering my own in quick succession. They're no match for my focused and calculated movements. I make my way towards Barry, who is desperately trying to escape.

"You won't get away with this, Barry," I say, shaking with the adrenaline coursing through my veins.

Barry chuckles, "Oh, I already have. And now that I have your wife, I have all the leverage I need to get away with it."

I feel a surge of anger, fuelled by the thought of my wife being held captive by this criminal mastermind. I charge towards him, taking down his henchmen with ease as I close in on him.

But I'm not afraid. I fumble for my lighter and just about manage to use it to ignite a nearby rocket, tossing it deftly towards Barry as he tries to make a run for it.

The rocket explodes in a spectacular burst of colour, sending Barry flying through the air and landing in a huge pile of fireworks, lighting several more fuses.

I light a cigarette, take a deep drag, and use it to light another rocket. I toss it towards Barry as he struggles to get up, and it explodes in a dazzling display of fireworks.

"You always did like to play with fire, Barry," I say, as vivid explosions burst in time with his screams. "Looks like it finally caught up to you."

I turn and walk away, knowing that my wife is still out there somewhere, and that I won't rest until I find her.

Just a pure guess but I’m assuming it’s some sort of bi-metal connection, similar to a thermocouple. In which case, yes.

Ask me about my STD collection!
I was visiting a weed-head friend yesterday and he showed us this stuff he's been buying called RSO THC dominant full extract cannabis oil.

Edibles are legally restricted to be sold in 100 mg packages, usually twenty 5mg or ten 10mg servings.

This stuff comes in a package of 7 syringes. Each syringe contains a full gram, so it's like buying 70 packages of edibles.

These are not injection syringes obviously, though they do look like they're holding black-tar heroin. It just dispenses a paste and you eat it.

My mind is still blown. I was like why is this so cheap? And he's like "Because no one wants to buy anything in a syringe", and I'm thinking, well then put it in something else?

This is the first I've ever heard of this, am I missing something? I know the concentration is good because my other friend tried some (like a 100mg dose, or 1/10th of one) and was perceptibly checked out.

Not just the syringe but it’s kind of a pain to handle, being really thick and sticky (not signing my post). Also it’s so concentrated it’s relatively difficult to dispense an accurate lower dose like e.g. 20mg THC.
