High
Someone recommend me a gummy that I can buy in Texas (or online I guess) that will get me high AF. I don't really want to be vaping or ripping bong hits now that I've got a teen in the house. I've tried one or two that a friend eats every night to wind down an hour or two before bed. Didn't really do anything for me. I also don't know what kind/brand they were. I just want to get high, man.

Everything is Shit: Tracking the Great Enshittening
I was at a high school baseball game earlier, someone does the walk on music for the home team batters using their phone (I assume) with a blue tooth connection to the PA system. Works great, until the music stops and you keep hearing those annoying blue tooth chirps during the at bat amplified over the PA. Annoying and distracting AF.

Post a pic that makes you lol
You'll get trichinosis if its not cooked properly. As noted above, very lean, not like store bought (domesticated) pork. Tastes a little gamey imo.

Pigs and boars are the same animal. That's like saying "cow and bull" hybrid. Of course they're thriving, they're invasive in Japan, just like in 'Merica. The "pig-boar hybrids" are probably no more radioactive than anything else in that area.

Scifi/Fantasy Book Recs
Just finished the Three Body Problem trilogy. First book was really good, second was fantastic, third was on its way to being even better, then the science fiction got so out there that it turned into an (unintentional) parody of itself.

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
She'll be someone's wife someday, probably, so... My daughter scraped the side of the car against the hooks on the front of the trash dumpster. Upon questioning, she admitted she was trying to get close enough to it so she could throw the trash in without getting out of the car.

The best memory of my entire life is feeding my daughter and rocking her back to sleep.

Do you use Circle K c-stores?
Stopped by Stripes this morning to hit up Laredo Taco Company. Recently raised their prices. Tacos really aren't that good anyway. Soda machine didn't work. No coke zero (yeah, I know) in the coolers. Plenty of that cherry coke zero shit though. No napkins at the salsa station. Filled up two little cups, one with salsa, one with pico. No lids. Told the cashier that there are no lids for the little cups. She told me they are in the bowl next to the cups. No, its empty. No, she said, I'm sure there are some in there. I brought her the bowl so she could see with her own eyes. She says she'll get me some lids. She goes in the back, comes back out, and hands me two lids.(Fuck anybody else who needs lids I guess). I put the lids on, put them in the bag. Get home, lids are wrong size, salsa and pico has spilled out into the bag and made a mess on the car seat. Fuck Stripes in its goat ass. And mother fuck Laredo Taco.

Trivial Things That Make You Surly
If you watch that video, the areas where he said they were spraying is almost completely covered in invasive giant salvinia. If not controlled, that shit will turn the lake eutrophic and literally kill the lake. No fish, no aquatic plants, no waterfowl, nothing but giant floating mats of salvinia. If not controlled, you probably won't be able to launch a boat on that lake in few years. Integrated pest management protocols for invasive aquatic plants frequently involve herbicides. The sad fact is, other methods (physical removal, introduction of biological control agents, floating barriers) just don't work very well, or take too long, or just cost too much. I admit it looks bad, and nobody wants to see dead herons on their lake. But in this case, the dead birds are probably the lesser of two evils. Blue herons are not endangered. Get rid of the salvinia and the heron population will recover. I don't know anything about Diquat, or if there are better alternatives. Who knows, Diquat Inc. may be the biggest political campaign contributor to Abbot as far as I know. But the comments to that video make me shake my head.

Courtney Cox was a smokeshow in that movie.
