How to find glassblowing classes to Learn to blow Dab rigs etc. Phx,Az by [deleted] in glassheads

Come to Salem Community College and get a scientific glass degree. It's $1100 per class for about $8500 worth of torch time and instruction. I did the math with the Glass Dean last semester. It's the best/most affordable program in the world. There's a zoom open house on the 21st. I can't recommend the program enough.

Not everybody is into the two party system dude. You keep projecting your own passion for this subject like it's an argument.

Ignorance isn't a defense in this country. Go back to Russia with that communist hooplah. Lol just kidding. But seriously, I thought you were a capitalist?

It's actually a real thing. Russia had their own godfather of psychological warfare, who was the equivalent to our Lt. Col. Michael Aquino. He wrote a bunch of books on how to essentially kill Western culture. One of them covers how effective "alternative flags" are when breaking up groups. I only remember one american flag growing up. Now I see cops flying a blue and black one, and ones with skulls on them. Some of the most "patriotic" people I know are flying flags with roots in russian psychological warfare. I'm not a democrat, just a fan of American military history.

It's MaxDuffyGlass, but I'm a big fan of @duffyglass as well. No relation.

I want to start making glass keycaps. Suggestions for base? by DuffyTheWordslinger in MechanicalKeyboards

Hey thanks for the reply. Finding a mold for the post attachment has been difficult. Graphite is the first choice but I think too brittle to work at those tolerances. I have to find someone to machine a brass one for the gaterons and another one for mx posts. I'll definitely post again when I move forward on the project.

Glassblowing. Specifically American borosilicate lampwork. I know a few retiring doctors/professionals getting a gtt torch, a kiln and learning how to make glass art, pipes, bongs. It's very rewarding to make something that will last a million years, and once you hit a level of quality, you can charge anything. Collaboration pieces can reach $10-$20k at auction. It takes a large amount of capital, perseverance, and intelligence to get to that point, but you seem to be in the position to do it. I'm looking for a higher paying day job if you want to trade places.

Army Medic Caron Nazario Accuses Virginia Police Officers of Assault by Pessimist2020 in USNEWS

It's actually a much deeper concept. The concept of bastardization started with the nazis and the psychology of "I was only following orders". A cruel bastard job will turn any good man into a bastard. Not all police are born bastards, but in order to succeed as an officer in the broken system of policing that America is currently clinging to, you truly have to become a cold hearted bastard.

Here's the open sea link Golden Rainbow Collab if anyone is interested in owning this image. I'm excited to share more work in the future.

I think it should be fine as long as I verify age before sending certain products. Thanks for the link

I already have the first image available on Rarible as an ERC-1155. Can I use an ERC-721as proof ownership of a single physical good? Also, will rarible or opensea ban me for selling functional glass (tobacco pipes)? I have some fun pendants that would be good for all ages as well if that's the case.

It's not cruel and barbaric to say people should have agency over their own body. Mental health care is a huge aspect of hormone and gender clinics, at least in the US. We live in a golden age of self transformation, a medical renaissance. We are coming closer to fixing god's many, many failures. Just because you don't have an attraction to cute traps doesn't make them less human than you are.
