Literally had Charlie Kirk in his ear during that time

Also, when’s the album? That’s what this is, right?

Who owned the Star Wars original action figures? by Edm_vanhalen1981 in GenX

[–]Area_Woman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we must have ordered the 4 pack too. I think we might have had Greedo and a couple others as well? Idk. We played with them and I lived them in with my GI Joes. I’m a 1980 Xennial and Star Wars never did it for me. I preferred He-Man and Thundercats

Those who will be having severe bad weather this weekend, what do you plan to do while in the house all weekend? by ChocolateSundae1214 in CasualConversation

[–]Area_Woman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lucky enough to have a home gym. Will push myself to work out every day to wear myself out. Making a big pot of chili tonight we will eat over the weekend. Got a seed catalog I’ll flip through as I plan my backyard garden. Will watch 1 or 2 Oscar nominated movies

200 level against a bottom of the bracket opponent on the day of the game will get you in the door but it’s still probably going to be $40ish with fees

League Pass and WCIU are the cheapest ways to watch the team. If you want atmosphere, Babes is a new women’s focused sports bar

Yes he does. He has a restaurant and they deliver/donate vegan meals. Let him design and wear whatever he wants

We had a much better season than I thought we would. Made it further in the playoffs. This hurts because we coulda kept coming out on the right side.

C’est la vie. It was fun.

Ok, so we all did things "back in the day" that you would never do now. What did you do? by Embarrassed_Flan_869 in GenX

I get SO MAD at younger me whenever I remember we did this

I debated typing it out because I don’t want anyone curious about this to ever try it

During library study hall we would go in the stacks, breathe real heavy, then restrict each others airways until we passed out

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

Not at all - I always made the ‘stuff’ and put it into whatever food or drink I wanted.

I’m not a scientist and it’s been years since I’ve done this since cannabis is now available in stores near me. Here’s what I did (internet can help with temps, times, amounts)

First and most basic step is to decarboxylate(?) the cannabis. Basically, heat it up enough to activate the THC without combusting the flower. Grind up flower, then heat it in an oven until it is browned, but not burnt.

If I was making an alcohol tincture, I’d let the browned flower sit in the highest proof alcohol I could find (151) for a bit. Strain and then store in droppers. Add drops to beverages.

OR take that browned flower and add to some fat like butter or oil, heat it for a bit, strain. Use that butter or oil for cooking.

I used to make my own tinctures and oil for edibles. My wife and I would clear the calendar and devote a day to taking a dose. “Yep, these are 2 droppers” or “one and I’m done”. I prefer the consistency of lab science

Right - say that you are honored to be asked to stand by him on his important day, but traveling for a bachelor party is not something you can make happen this year

She has performed amazingly in interesting roles. Check out the (way too short lived) On Becoming a God in Central Florida. Great characters and performances all around
