I've seen a few people talking about it, but it's nowhere to be seen for me (on desktop or mobile)!

Zeph isn't as far off from me as I though, lol I'm going to take it easy in here for a  few weeks and let him take the SFWP Crown

I don't see it on mobile either, but on desktop I think there's a little arrow on the right-hand side of that "Replies/Created/Last Reply" bar (if you get that at all) where you can roll it out.

Oh wow I’m reading that back to myself now and it sounds really bad. Sorry zeph lol

No no, it is I who should be sorry, as a fellow Canadian showing apologetic solidarity.

Sorry

(commence Canadian sorry chain lol)

Today is my late dads bday, he would have been 52 today (passed away in 2014). Having a drink in his memory, annual tradition.

What the fuck is this new look. I can't even get the old default theme to look right. And that popup is ridiculous.

Tic tok is doing weirdness during live streams that sometimes what I type won't show to the host. Or some things others type I can't see.

can't find the prodoction tops thread

Looks like someone has tried to trotsky the prodoction tops topic. Probably one of the feautured artists that felt too many sacred tops have been disclosed and then attempted to distract us with a, admittedly very valuable and informative but much more general, wikihow on producing IDM music. 

Yeah, I was searching for that the other day and couldn't find it. That thread was fun wtf

                                                                    after so many posts or time  has passed on a thread

                                                                               hiding or deleting said thread shouldn't be up to the op, got me?

getting mentally prepared to have my healthcare taken away by year's end. then the overwhelmingly stressful attempts at figuring out how to get my necessary cancer drug w/o having sell my house and move into a trailer park or something. 

edit: i'd say there's around 50/50 or better chance that when/if the new supreme court judge gets pushed in the ACA will be gonners. arguments are scheduled to begin Nov. 10th.

Move to Canada ASAP?

border is closed still i think.. but anyway.. it's not a trivial thing to become a resident in canada. If i can find my cancer drug at the actual rate that my insurance companies pays it'll be doable. It lists for $14,000 for 1 month supply but in searches it shows up for $200 at coscto which i'm not sure is actually true.. but it's something like $3500 for a year supply in canada. so, theoretically i could go to canada every 2 months and buy my medication.

Ever considered making your own bong? Having the chillum of your broken one makes things easier, I think. I know that it's possible to make a good bong from bamboo but I have made provisional ones from plastic bottles, too. Is there no headshop in your area where you can get a proper one for cheap?

The only headshop near me price-gouges like crazy.  No bongs there for under $100 as far as I remember.  At the moment I have some food-grade silicone drying on my current piece so we'll see how that does.  Grasscity said they'd contact me about replacing it, too.

We have a ton of bamboo where I live so it would be very easy for me to that route.

I have a friend who travels to the States once every several months to get a medication she can't buy here.  She was able to get over the border to do it last month.  So I was under the impression the border is still open (though I think it should be closed.  'Nuff cross-contamination already).

1. use a lighter to open up a hole for the chillum
2. stick the chillum while the plastic is still melting so that it fits proper sealed
3. open a little hole for your finger
4. fill with water
5. take the top cap
6. get baked
7. discard of bottle
8. rinse and repeat

From a European perspective it's so fucked up to see people struggling for their access to healthcare in the US. Really something that I hope Biden might reform if he gets into power. This lack of universal healthcare really doesn't benefit anybody, after all. Or who is the profiteer of that situation? I think there is none

Fucking lady on the bus with her two young children singing kids songs to them, or should I say, the whole bus. She probably doesn't realize how ridiculous she sounds.

That's how I ended up with a broken bong in the first place.  Postage and glass do not like each other.

Thanks, but I'm just using my pipe for now.  It's rough and unpleasant, but it gets the job done.
