All this time I thought I'd be turned down instantly...
My normal weed-connect informed me the other day that he's 'going out of business'. I'm bummed cuz 40% of the time he delivers and his prices are great.
I've been going to physical therapy for my back. My Doctor has tried to put me on opiates more than once... they've even offered an injection.
"No sir... fuck off w/that nonsense... what else can I do?"
"You smoke weed, right? Get your Medical card, Moron... then goto a dispensary and get the 'right' weed instead of hoping for a good strain from your buddy 'Emilio'."
So I took their advice and $300 later a whole new world was open to me.
What was strange though is that I thought things like my heart disease etc would disqualify me. Instead of being cautionary the 'Doctors' that reviewed my case found REASONS I 'needed' weed for just about every ailment / issue on my list (that I thought would hold me back).
Anyway... long story short— I'm used to 'making due' w/whatever my buddy brings home from California each week. But now I can visit dispensaries OR take advantage of a few home delivery services. (I've opted for the second). So this dude showed up to my place last night w/a complete list of oils, waxes, edibles etc etc... He even brought a photo montage of Birthday Cake options (yep)...
... He's on his way over now w/some of Snoop's new 'Tangerine Man': https://merryjane.com/goods/leaf…

- $300 = Dr Fee:$120 and State Fee: $150 (actually = $270... was rounding up)PonyBoy

- idk about arizona but pharmacies in LA have frequent buyer prizes, new customer freebies, and deals before the weekends. recycling programs for medicine bottlesshellie
- and save your medicine bottles other places may take them. for every 10 bottles i return i get a free pre rolled joint!shellie
- Those fees suck! I paid $90 for the Dr., then the referring dispersary gave me a $70 credit. So $20 to have my card.formed

How can I play YouTube continuously while locking my iphone7? Any apps I should know about?
- play a video, wait for the ad to finish, then tap the share button (not the plus sign). Tap "Message," lock your phone, and the audio will continue playingsted
- that's from google so you have to try it out :)sted
- i had to sit down after reading this^
all these years!drgs - Does not workbklyndroobeki
- You have to use Opera for that now. Somehow Safari doesn't work anymore, still plays Vimeo when locked, but no YT anymore...grotesk_neue
- Been doing this for years now till it suddenly stopped working. So I downloaded stupid Opera just for playing YT in the background.grotesk_neue

Someone fucked up, so instead of a lorry with a forklift turning up this afternoon, when I had people lined up to help, I got a call on my way into work saying that a truck was outside already, waiting. A truck with no forklift.
I've just had to move a literal fucking ton of boxes out of my studio and into the back of a lorry and then onto pallets and then wrapped up.
I've not even had a cup of tea yet :(
Still, I've not had a heart attack. Yet.

Always wanted to try doing my own charcuterie. I just popped four 250 g pieces of lovely belly of pork in the fridge for a week-long dry-curing, after which they will be rinsed, flavoured and hung in the fridge for 3-4 weeks. Net result: I'll have two nice pieces of pancetta (flavoured like guanciale) and two pieces of lard séché/lard paysant.
Yum!

Before dawn this morning, a drunk / tired driver veered across the oncoming lane and met a tree.

There is a special needs employee at my local deli who handles seafood. His name is Buddy. He is an awesome person. Simply awesome. I call in orders all the time. I order salmon and always take his suggestion for the day regarding seasoning. He is always saying things like "this is heaven" "you'll absolutely love this" or when you're done ordering, the way he says "ah, that's gonna be sweet, anything else?" makes me think my boring repetitive order is actually pretty sweet and he would do anything else for me if I asked. He never recognizes me on the phone but he always recognizes me when I go to pick up my food. He's probably the best person I've met in the last 5 years. A tear comes to my eye just appreciating that guy.

- sounds like you need a dogdeathboy
- or a kiddeathboy
- world is full of bad news. thanks for your positive story!SimonFFM
- i wonder if people realize they are upvoting the positive servitudes? and what that truely means as a culturedeathboy
- ^ lolwot?Continuity
- deathboy‚ let me help you as you obviously are special yourself (but not like buddy... but in an asshole way). Buddy has a life and is loved—and loves—ujealous?PonyBoy
- post ruined by an attention whore, thanks for sharing imbecileernexbcn
- Happy days :)set
- Love this story! Tnx for sharing :)Krassy
- I'm waiting for a QBN twist to this story...
Like he was fired five years back for being improper with salami, but forces his way in to make sandwiches each dayfuturefood - post was emo attention seeking? what is the value you are upvoting? special? servitude? simpleton? that makes you feel good?deathboy
- to me its just BS emo hi five progressive bullshit that is self serving misdirection in recognizing a special person doing a "job." hell i love to anyone doingdeathboy
- there job well. but if i type that it doesnt get the same response. jeez pony i thought u of all ppl catch on to that pity shitdeathboy
- and i expected better from imbecile. maybe it did make u feel good, but please dont share that garbage. all u do is put me in a position to check itdeathboy
- and promotes the whole online self serving im a good person logical fallacy crap. ruins culturesdeathboy
- So what's the answer? Don't recognize the guy doing the job? Don't acknowledge that he makes you feel happy?Gucci
- Buddy probably loves his job, loves feeling included and valuable. Mostly, that's what ppl with intellectual disabilities want.Gucci
- recognize what it is that makes u feel good. understanding it. it really seems like simply retard + good feels = likes formuladeathboy
- today i saw a person happy at that job and it made me happy. i think the difference is obvious when phrased and what details are of focus for intentdeathboy
- i dont like to be the guy to call call bullshit, i actually hate attention and hope someone does it before me so i dont have to. but im calling it as it isdeathboy
- unless its a jealousy monologue of i felt happy seeing simple jack enjoy his job so easily while i struggle everyday at mine because im smarterdeathboy
- and i wish i could take in some ignorance is bliss and just like what i do. albeit giving up other things like getting laid and possibly not shitting oneself.deathboy
- if that was imbecile intent than ok. it wasnt clear, but also wasn't fair just looking at only the advantages of simpletons. and if that is what people supportedeathboy
- d so be it. fuck u guys are weirddeathboy
- ^ LOL, wow. Someone's got some pretty pronounced daddy issues.Continuity
- Thanks for sharing, great storymartinadolfsson
- death... the story I read wasn't a pity story but one that tells me if someone whose lot in life is far more fucked than mine is still this kind and loving a...PonyBoy
- ... person that perhaps a touch of self reflection on my part for my trivial complaints / worries and angsts in life might be in order.PonyBoy
- damn deathboy, people don't post for the likes ... this is also the BLOG threadmonospaced
- hmm well it read like i love their servitude to me pony. and loving an kind is expected from the "special" as a standard. they know no better. i hope it wasdeathboy
- a quality of work thing. and mono you are funny to say ppl dont post for likes. continuity where is your argument? The daddy seems to say more about u than medeathboy
- in the context.really what would be great if imbecile clarified what made him feel good. just guessing at poor communicationdeathboy
- I'm not being funny. This is the blog, where people post random things, like a diary. It made him happy to see a happy person! What's so confusing about that?monospaced
- This story made my daygrotesk_neue
- deathboy missed the point and went full steam at it haha. Feel better now buddy? That's what this is all about after allset
- well mono if that was the case why not phrase it that way? bc that is not the case. duh. set i dont think mi missed the point. i think too many ppl letting thedeathboy
- point go out of fear of being the "me." this case is too simple not to point out. clearly imbecile could state simply what he valued and was tryin to communicadeathboy
- te. i think we all know exactly what he was trying to communicate and are ignoring or more scary scenario is most dont know...deathboy
- fuck me maybe that is the truth im trying to ignore. ppl dont fuckin know the truth. im holding on to a false idea that id like to believe ppl to be smarter..deathboy
- smarter might not be the word though. more honest with themselves, more instinctive, more independent of thoughtdeathboy
- on that note set you are correct this is what it is aboutdeathboy
- sorry set a bit abstract. this communication is about understanding. not internal but external. to challenge beliefs and see who folds, see triggers, see whatdeathboy
- ppl can see. To challenge something and see how they respond with their views of the scenarios. do they try reason or insult, or deflectiondeathboy
- also about learnin about your own communication. perhaps if ill break it downdeathboy
- third sentence calls buddy awesome, while only giving evidence of being special, we can ignore his occupation and name.deathboy
- than, the boy says catch phrases which makes me feel better about my life (not explained) and i feel good knowing he will do anything for me.deathboy
- he has no cognizant skills to recognize me on the phone as others but recognizes me in person. best person ever for the values i highlighted.deathboy
- to recap values being ( serve me, make me feel good about my life) and this is what ppl upvote... unless i misunderstood something. but that would be on imbecildeathboy
- or are we gonna trump this and say we meant something completely else?deathboy
- i believe imbecile and others simply saw the responsive triggers but lacked full comprehension of the meaning of this instancedeathboy
- its not bad, its simple a mistake. it means nothing on your self identity. Not like haha you were wrong once u suck. why wont ppl admit when they are lostdeathboy
- Man shut the fuck up, it's better for everyone.set
- yeah, you missed the pointmonospaced
- was the point to ignore the truth of it and ride the positive waves? no thx. I live simply and truthfully even if it doesn't make things easier for anyonedeathboy
- considering there is no attempt at alternative explanation of meaning from breakdown Ill take it as simple denial. shrug and shake my head a littledeathboy
- but sorry. i get no pleasure from shitting on parades. ill go back to my holedeathboy
- he isn't ignoring any truth, he's saying he appreciates a guy that adds positivity to his experiencemonospaced
- I don't know why you only see negativity here. Read his last two sentences if you want to see the point.monospaced
- mono... the last two sentences describe the emotion. not the cause... a racist might have the same two last sentences watching his retard son spit on a spicdeathboy
- but thank you. it helps me understand what you focus on. i assumed as much, but nice to see it. no one else even tried framing any of it as positivedeathboy
- not even the author. PR 101, no comment.deathboy
- really, you're attacking me?monospaced
- Deathboy is one of those stupid intellectuals. Lots of words and focus and reasoning but it's all utter time wasting toshset
- damnmonospaced
- huh i was thanking u mono? set check your oxy moron. but i will agree on the outcome is a waste of time. unless u think of it as practicedeathboy
- practice to not fall into a sort of group think. to challenge to test. as much as id like to be doing it for you, its really totally selfishdeathboy
- exercise. oxymoron is probably framed around the idea there is no value gained. but you are missing the bigger picture.deathboy
- but because its a waste of time, thats still no argument to say I am wrong in what I've saiddeathboy
- and for shits and giggles set you can look through history and see how human denial is incredible. germans who really believed in the socialist nazi party whodeathboy
- refuse to accept they supported something so terrible. they only wanted something good and went with the positive vibes.deathboy
- in the larger picture the blatant lack of comprehension and focus on emotion strikes me as spooky. so where in this instance its pointless im looking broaderdeathboy
- clearly mono was the only person who stated the "evidence" of it being good not just positive. Would u say that evidence holds up?deathboy
- i have this feeling set u agree with me but wont say it. might be only my impression of set as the cunt though. if u agree be the cunt again unless u forgot howdeathboy
- don't accuse me of group think ... this brought a smile to my face, because I got the point of it, and I commented firstmonospaced
- What in the utter living fuck are you even on about?set
- eh... its all shit set. i dont know how to say what im trying to say in the shorthand comments any better. need essay format. u get it. or u dont. fuck it.deathboy
- and mono i might not know the terms, but there is a simple associative pattern to the post. a pattern that is effective to herds. a pattern very similiardeathboy
- to trump speak. u got the feel good vibes of it but missed the message. and my group think ref was more a combo of people falling into that LCD trapdeathboy
- and as humans and animals are conditioned the like system help led others into the trap, a group think. we are all most in advertisin fields so we all understdeathboy
- and the nature and psychology of like systems. how the reward systems are very much to calculated slot machine programming. and from there its a snowball effectdeathboy
- and to question the original msg content from a "negative" perspective closes off minds... this place was better culturally before a like system... tangent i kndeathboy
- ow but at the same time its all connecteddeathboy
- Sorry deathboy. I can't agree with you. If I do, then it's becomes group think.pango
- Do you not realise you simply killed the mice, positive, happy vibe of this post? Sometimes you need to be intelligent enough to know when to stfuset
- yes set i realize it fully. that is the whole point. im calling out this "false positive" post to show it really isnt positive walked through the reason and alldeathboy
- i dont know how i can explain it any simpler... i get your point but you apparently cant get my point...can lead a horse but cant get them to drinkdeathboy
- u and mono focused on the intended "vibe" but not the meaning of it. ... sometimes i dont think some people are physically capable of thinking other waysdeathboy
- i cant dunk, why should i expect everyone to slam dunk mentally. its either my fault in explaining or yours in comprehending and i dont see a solutiondeathboy
- you dont try. says plenty. i think i can sleep easily knowing i did what i could here. the\ rest is up to the participantsdeathboy
- and pango u missed the point of associative patterns and group think was talking about. i get it u were trying to be funny... when it comes stuff like this imdeathboy
- plain business simply because i believe heavily in ppl needing to be able to detect bullshit in order to maintain individual freedom, even in something as simpldeathboy
- as this, and as simple it it is its even scaryier,. to think the same trump method could be used to sway this demodeathboy
- just call me stupid. leave feeling superior and all emo positive vibes it give, but humor me and really think about what im trying to say. not even to agree butdeathboy
- simply to understand. the way we fakely ask other cultures to understand but this time for real. clearly im not stupid, crazy, religious, so what am i tryingdeathboy
- to say you dont get. set was kind enough to say i was intellectual, deems some sense of intellect. there is no reason to shove my words aside. none even givendeathboy
- u ever read socrates death? this feels similiardeathboy
- Amazing that a feel-good post about being touched by the fact someone with disabilities is happy and kind has generated 94 fucking notes. Most of them idiotic.Continuity
- holy shit. the notes are still going on.pango
- Sorry, you actually not only missed the point of the original post, deathboy, you've gone on and on misinterpreting it with your negative view of the world.monospaced
- Please stop telling people they have no right to understand the post as it was intended, or that they're wrong in sharing the good feelings.monospaced
- You're not being intellectual. You're being rude and condescending.monospaced
- You seem to think that the only thing about a special needs person that anyone should consider is that they're disabled and that their person ends there. F thatmonospaced
- mono... i got the authors point. you dont get mine. u fail/succeed in not even trying to provide reason for your accusation to my intent.... take your lastdeathboy
- post and phrase it with something i said that give merit to your accusation. its hard to take any position you take seriously without substancedeathboy
- dont u know how reason works? debate, logic and what Id like to think of as common sense? or maybe u just familiar with logical falliciesdeathboy
- and hope you mostly deal with people who know no betterdeathboy

You ever get the feeling that people think you're an imbecile? It's weird, you act friendly towards people, try to be helpful, smile when you see them but they act condescending or patronizing in return.
There's this one dude who's always coming into my shop, orders the same old thing every single time, so I try to interject some friendly and fun banter into our interaction but he's dismissive and snobbish, for instance , he knows my name, I tell him every time he come in, it's even on my name tag in big letters right under east end deli & seafood. He just keeeps calling me "Buddy".
- Some people don't like small talk.eryx

Best day at the laundromat ever?
I look like I do every day. More dressed up than everyone around me. I'm too lazy to wash all my bedding one piece at a time so I use the oversized washer down the street.
A girl offers me her number unsolicited.
Another two girls ask me if I have a girlfriend. Upon saying yes, they ask if I had any intention of separating soon. I say no, they respond with are you sure? Dang.
After that a third, quite attractive young woman who I had previous noticed comes over and teases me for the previous young girls' approach BUT ALSO asks if I really do have a girlfriend or if I just said that so they'd leave me alone.
Then after all the fuss is over I hear two older women talking about what just happened; one of the them stating "I thought he was gay."
Good hair day + white dress shirt + ???? = profit?

Gave a graffiti workshop and after an initial day to teach some Graffiti History, watch a couple of videos about Graffiti and some basics in how to use a spray can and to be careful with things. We also cut some stencils and draw some sketches.
Today was painting day.
So the initial ten kids had decided as a group with some suggestions of mine to spark their imagination to paint the wall the following way:
Half of the wall was a city the other half a jungle/forest.
The city was in day light and the jungle in the night.
In the jungle there was a waterfall.In the city's sky the sun and a plane with a banner where the initials of the youth center plus the door number and kids written in the end like "PTU 576 KIDS".
In the jungle's sky a moon and starts (stencil) and a
The city and forest are full with animals (animal invasion) and there's stencils of flowers and insects. In the lake form by the waterfall there's fish (stencils).
In the middle there are letters that say "Animal Power". These letters are in shape of objects:
A - Giraffe with the head and neck in front of the legs.
N - a snake forming a "N"
I - a penguin
M - a spider in front view
A - a golden pyramid
L - half human leg with a sock and a shoeP - a cartoon T-Rex
O - a donut
W - color pencils forming a "W"
E - a rabbit drawn by a 8 year old in the form of an "E"
R - a "R" with eyes and horse feet(?)Above the letters there's a pink unicorn being abducted by an ufo piloted by a monkey.
From the initial ten only six showed up and two decided to quit after two hours painting, one was came today already a bit sick.
Still they managed to paint practically all wall except for the sky's alone and, they sketched everything alone. I just marked the spots for the composition.
I helped them giving tips and some spray can here and there.
Almost no drips!The weather was warm, 25º Celsius, and we had shadow spots.
Today was also the last day of a two day workshop and in the end everybody who participated plus the youth center instructors and the parents were really like "Wow!"
Because it wasn't completely finished and with the wall, their project, starting to pop-out the kids had grown in enthusiasm and self-demanding in a joyous way we decided to have an extra afternoon to finish the rest of the details.
You will picture the wall in different ways and maybe it sounds better for some than it looks like but still I'm very happy, so the kids, and it's really a nice wall.
I will post pictures after it's finished.
