I know
You ever smoke that shit?
Next to real Thai sticks, like 1972 stuff with the opium (anyone know what I'm talking about?) it was the most potent herb I ever smoked & it was $50 per & I initially bitched about the price (Columbian Gold was $35) but it really was remarkable marijuana.
I smoked that almost 50 years ago and I can still remember the high.
It was worth every penny

Yes, it is hallucinogenic. I smoked some Thai stick as a rookie. Guys wanted to go for corn bread and I didn't make it out of the car. Took a nap.

I grew some back when I was young and dumb. True one hit shit. I only had one plant make it all the way, so no seeds. In hindsight I could have crossed it with anything and it would have been killer.

I think this is funny

CNN's medical analyst, Dr. Jonathan Reiner of Washington, D.C., said during his appearance on CNN Saturday that very few places in the world are experiencing a surge in new cases worse than in Florida.

"The viral load in Florida is so high right now, there are only really two places on the planet where it's higher," Reiner said. "One is Louisiana, and the other is Botswana. It's so high in Florida that I think that if Florida were another country, we would have to consider banning travel from Florida to the United States."

Holy shit!!!!

Botswana, Louisiana & Florida are the most fucked up places on the planet Earth?

Go figure

[Jimdamick]

And all those dumb motherfuckers voted that dumb motherfucker into office.
Well, there goes DeSantis's chance at being re-elected Governer, let alone POTUS.
Most of his supporters will be dead

If it was Belgian waffles with strawberries & vanilla iceam, would you have gotten up?

As a young fellow in the early 90s I went to buy some "untied thaid sticks." It was like 35 bucks for an 8th, went with some grizzled dude to a crack house to buy it. Messed up crazy crack house things abounded, but eventually got out the door and my 8th was closer to a quarter, so price was fine. The weed was very very fluffy and brown/tan (obviously not tied to a stick...). Holy shit it was the dopest dope I ever toked. Long lasting goofy crazy high with people forgetting how to use doors, just rolling around in the grass. Looking back knowing a bit more, some sorta Thai weed, who knows, too late to be thai sticks and sure didn't match the description other than the high being next level.

That would have been more enticing, I don't like corn bread, anyway. The thing is, I was already drunk on beer. Can't do both.

I got opiated "Buddha" sticks for $8 in Guam in '76
2 tokes and you were sitting on the floor holding up the wall with your legs splayed out

Really, just think about it.
I'll bet around 85% of the casualties are Trump supporters/Republicans, and the rest religious or just plain stupid.
In 50 years the historians are going to look back and write about "COVID-19 & the Decimation of the Republican party"
Wanna bet?

Yea, that was some intense smoke & the opium really set it off.
I remember thinking after I smoked and entered La La Land how if the house was burning down around me I'd say fuck it, let it burn, I feel too fucking awesome to move.
I loved opium, it was just to bad that it would eventually kill you.

"The viral load in Florida is so high right now, there are only really two places on the planet where it's higher,"

DeSantis isn't trying hard enough.
He thinks this will be like the last surge last summer. Where it went up but actually stayed much lower than the country. Then boasting about he knew what he was doing and the CDC along with Reiner were just causing unnecessary panic.
I don't want people dying but how else will the point be proven. Everything else has been said and done.

I don't have that luxury. The folks dying are my neighbors. Some of whom I care deeply about. I've tried using my secret weapon, sarcasm on them. But most are immune to it.

I finally bit the bullet and joined FB, mostly to connect with old friends and people locally. Some of my friends are antivaxxers, but I haven't said much so far! I've seen covid warnings attached to some of their posts!

I'm still learning my way around the interface and from what I've seen it sucks. I started a local meditation group on FB and I'm gonna start one on FPV racing drones and RC planes to see if I can hook up locally with any others with similar interests. I want to met new people and make new fiends locally and that's why I'm on facebook, to share my interests, I'm not looking for news and information on covid! I'm learning my way around and seeing what I can do with the platform, I'm 66 so most of the people I know are not online, but there are a few around.

 

[captainmorgan]

Facebook is a open sewer.

 

[DIY-HP-LED]

Facebook is a open sewer.

I'm there for specific reasons Captain and staying pretty much local. Some of my friends are antivaxx and there are covid warning attached to some of there posts. I can't say I like FB and not many of my old friends are there, but perhaps some new ones in time. I want to use it to enhance my real social life locally with real people, one day covid won't be an issue and I've been in a shell for 18 months, I still am and will be until delta blows through. Right now I wanna hook up with local people who are interested in meditation and FPV drone flying.

I recently lost a good friend to cancer and it's kinda shaken me up a bit and stimulated some changes and actions.

Beautiful city
Your lucky

Thanks Jim

Hey I seen people riding these all over the city when I was out riding my bike last Saturday night

Electric scooters and bikes, they are everywhere in the city, all you do is find one, jump on it and go, when you're done just park it in a designated spot for the next person to ride.There is designated parking spots everywhere, like they are everywhere lol

I think these are pretty cool




A couple more pics from Saturday night

Some cool sculpture art thingy


McKay tower


This looking eastt on Michigan st downtown. This part of Michigan st is called the medical mile. There is Devos children's hospital, Blodgett hospital, Butterworth hospital, U of M medical study center and MSU medical study center




Fish Ladder Park. No fishing in that little area (middle pic), but when the salmon run, there are people lined up literally shoulder to shoulder fishing from one side to the other all the way across the river in front of the dam (last pic). It's not very deep out there, maybe 3-4ft, people just wade out there.

That's about as far in as the salmon make it from Lake Michigan, a few swim up the ladder and it's always fun to watch them jump from one section to the next

I have gone salmon fishing out there, but gets way too crowded for me. I kinda don't like wading in the river either, that water is moving really really fast right in front of the dam and there are a few deep holes there. One wrong step in one of those holes or you step on a slippery rock and you're done if you go under and your waders fill up with water
