There is hell-rock from hell, but I've met my match with the clock.

ex: do all parental split-ups get a non-disparagement clause in the ruling?

AI Overview

No, not all parental split-ups automatically include a non-disparagement clause in their final ruling or separation agreement. While considered "standard" in many high-conflict custody cases, they are not a mandatory requirement for every separation.

Here is a breakdown of how non-disparagement clauses work in family law:
  • When They Are Used: These clauses are common in contentious, high-conflict parenting cases where one or both parents are concerned about the other speaking negatively in front of the children.
  • Purpose: The main aim is to protect the children's emotional well-being by shielding them from conflict and ensuring they feel safe loving both parents.
  • What They Prohibit: They typically prohibit parents from denigrating, speaking negatively about, or criticizing the other parent to the children, within earshot of the children, or to third parties. Some clauses also extend to social media.
  • Voluntary vs. Ordered: While often included in negotiated settlement agreements, a court can expressly order a non-disparagement clause as part of a parenting order under the "best interests of the child" standard.
  • Limitations: Truth is not always a defense; a non-disparagement clause often prohibits saying negative things even if they are true, aiming to stop harmful conflict rather than just false statements.
Even without a formal clause, courts generally expect parents to behave civilly and not disparage each other in front of children, and continued "bad-mouthing" can lead to a parent losing custody or visitation time.

===

"best interests of the child" is noticeably in scare quotes within.

disclaimer: sometimes AI can be full of shit

-162 there are break-up horror shows within. They seem to be more common than Blue Jays pitcher's strikeouts this season. Smoked, but 10 more today for 60--through 4 games--which may set another record (50 in 3 apparently was).

Thanks for the use of the jukebox.

That was trippy. Didn't need mushroom tea tonight (was tempted--not sure shelf life of my remaining).

Strain #4 on the day (plural, therefore daze), if that counts (Girl Scout Cookies, Cannalope Haze, Cereal Milk and Candyland). Day 6 no Bill W. angst.

Hey! I hadn't found decent hash since before they discovered the effects of cannabinoids on memory, unless I'm forgetting something.

ex: how to store pliable hash so that it does not get hard

AI Overview

To keep pliable, soft hash from hardening, it must be stored in an airtight, non-reactive container away from light, heat, and excessive oxygen. The goal is to maintain a stable, cool environment (roughly 60-70°F or 15-21°C) with a relative humidity of 58% to 62% to prevent it from drying out.

Best Practices for Storing Pliable Hash:
  • Airtight Glass Jars: Glass is non-porous and non-reactive, making it the best option to seal in freshness and prevent terpenes from escaping. Dark, amber-colored jars are ideal to block UV light, which degrades hash.
  • Parchment Paper Wrap: Before placing the hash in a jar, wrap it in parchment paper or baking paper. Avoid plastic bags or cling wrap, which can cause static, stick to the hash, and leach chemicals.
  • Humidity Control Packs: Use small, 58% or 62% relative humidity (RH) packs (like Boveda or Integra) inside the container to maintain the perfect moisture level and prevent the hash from becoming brittle.
  • Minimize Air Exposure (Headspace): Use small jars that match the amount of hash you are storing. Less empty space ("headspace") in the jar means less oxygen to oxidize and harden the hash.
  • Cool, Dark Location: Store the container in a cold, dark place, such as a drawer or refrigerator, away from fluctuating temperatures.
Long-Term Storage (Freezing):
If storing for several months, freeze the hash. To avoid freezer burn, double-bag it—place the parchment-wrapped hash in an airtight jar, and then place that jar in a vacuum-sealed or freezer-safe bag. Crucially, allow the jar to come to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation from forming on the cold surface and introducing moisture.

How to Soften Hardened Hash:
If the hash has already hardened, place a small humidity pack in the sealed container for 24–48 hours, or add a tiny piece of orange or lemon peel (not touching the hash directly) to reintroduce moisture.

Dickpunch says 20 bucks for this shit. Can't make this stuff up.

buddalicious-sweedfactory-bag-1-1.jpg

Sent to me as a bonus gift with my last order, a 200mg pack of gummies. This stuff actually work for anybody? Edibles don't please me, but I'll have to try sometime without getting smoke baked first (as if).

Girl Scout Cookies ('hybr') & Sunshine Haze ('sat') so far. Considering psych trip. MDMA too easy to do and peaceful easy feeling too blasé for this Saturday night. Recently found a long-shot connection for mescaline, but I think he's posturing. Anybody try that? Not the posturing shit, the other.

ex: how to eat magic mushrooms so that they don't taste like shit

AI Overview

Magic mushrooms are known for having a strong, earthy, and sometimes bitter taste that many find unpleasant. The most effective ways to consume them without tasting them involve masking the flavor with strong ingredients, masking the texture by blending, or using extraction methods.
Here are the best methods to mask the taste of magic mushrooms, based on commonly used techniques:

1. The Lemon Tek (Best for Taste and Fast Onset)
This method involves soaking ground mushrooms in lemon juice, which masks the bitter taste and helps break down the chitin (the fiber in mushrooms that makes them hard to digest).
  • How to: Grind dried mushrooms into a powder. Place them in a shot glass and cover with fresh lemon juice. Let it sit for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drink it in one gulp.

2. Chocolate or Candy Method
Mixing mushrooms with chocolate is one of the most effective ways to hide the taste because the sweetness and fat mask the earthiness.
  • How to: Melt chocolate in a bain-marie (double boiler). Stir in finely ground dried mushrooms. Pour into molds and let them solidify in the refrigerator.

3. Shroom Tea (Easiest to Customize)
Tea is a popular way to consume mushrooms that allows you to add sweeteners to hide the taste while reducing nausea.
  • How to: Boil water, remove from heat, and add ground mushrooms. Let them steep for 10-15 minutes.
  • Enhancements: Strain the tea and add honey, ginger, lemon, or a tea bag of your choice (like peppermint or chai) to mask the taste.

4. Smoothies
Blending mushrooms into a thick smoothie is excellent for masking both the texture and the taste.
  • How to: Use a high-power blender to combine frozen mango, berries, or citrus with your mushrooms. The strong fruit flavors completely mask the earthiness.

5. Capsules
If you cannot handle the taste at all, capsules are the best option.
  • How to: Grind the dried mushrooms into a fine powder and use a capsule filling machine to put them into size 00 or 000 capsules.

6. Masking with Food (PB&J, Pizza, Yogurt)
Using a strong-flavored food can hide the taste and texture.
  • PB&J: Use a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, as the peanut butter helps mask the texture, and the jelly covers the taste.
  • Yogurt or Applesauce: Simply mix ground mushrooms into a flavorful yogurt or applesauce.
  • Pizza: Put fresh or dried mushrooms on a pizza; the cheese and sauce hide the flavour.

Tips for Better Experience
  • Grind them: Using a coffee grinder to make a powder makes it easier to mix into food or drinks without encountering unpleasant chewy chunks.
  • Fast first: Many users find that fasting 6-12 hours before consumption helps reduce nausea.
  • Ginger for Nausea: Add fresh ginger to tea or smoothies to help with digestion.

Important Considerations
  • Legal Status: Psilocybin mushrooms are classified as controlled substances in many jurisdictions. Possession, sale, or consumption can result in significant legal consequences. It is essential to be aware of local laws and regulations.
  • Health and Safety: Consuming psychoactive substances carries risks, including potential psychological distress, physical discomfort, or adverse reactions. Seeking professional medical advice or consulting reliable public health resources is recommended for anyone considering the use of such substances.
  • Identification: Consuming wild mushrooms is extremely dangerous due to the risk of misidentification. Many poisonous mushroom species look similar to edible or psychoactive ones and can cause permanent organ damage or death if ingested.
======

I got an old long distance friend who does heroic doses in a peanut butter and jam sandwich, but that sounds rather gross to me. If mushrooms were as easy to do as MDMA then I probably would not be getting any day passes from the institution.

Lotsa loony tunes but I'll roll with 4 more as my tabs need shrinking and my ears need expansion. Maybe procrastinate for an hour before inevitable trip.

Going for a Kali Mist ('sat') as I haven't strained thusly for a second.

ex: different uses of "idealism"

AI Overview

"Idealism" is a term used across several contexts, generally splitting into two main interpretations: a philosophical doctrine that reality is fundamentally mental or immaterial, and a practical, everyday attitude focused on pursuing high ideals, perfection, or noble principles.

Here are the different uses of "idealism":

1. Philosophical Idealism (Metaphysical & Epistemological)
In philosophy, idealism asserts that the mind, spirit, or consciousness is the primary foundation of reality, while the material world is either secondary or a construct of the mind.
  • Subjective Idealism (Immaterialism): Associated with George Berkeley, this view argues that objects do not exist independently of being perceived ("to be is to be perceived").
  • Objective/Platonic Idealism: Traced to Plato, this posits that abstract ideas, forms, or mathematical truths are more real and fundamental than the physical, tangible world.
  • Transcendental Idealism: Formulated by Immanuel Kant, this argues that while external objects may exist, we only know them as "phenomena" organized by our own mental structures (like space and time), never as they are in themselves ("noumena").
  • Absolute Idealism: Associated with G.W.F. Hegel, this considers all reality as part of an unfolding, all-inclusive "Absolute" or "Spirit" that is inherently rational.
2. Everyday and Ethical Idealism (Moral)
In common parlance, "idealism" describes a person’s outlook on life, characterized by optimism and a commitment to moral values.
  • Moral/Ethical Idealism: The belief in a higher moral code and the striving for a better, more ethical world, often prioritizing moral principles over self-interest.
  • Naïve/Optimistic Idealism: A, sometimes criticized, worldview that assumes good will prevail in the long run, often disregarding practical or negative realities.
  • Striving for Perfection: The pursuit of the perfect partner, job, or society (utopianism), which can be seen as an attempt to bring perfection into an imperfect world.
3. Practical and Functional Uses
  • Political/Foreign Policy Idealism: A foreign policy approach, often contrasted with realism, where a country’s actions are driven by its internal values, such as promoting human rights and democracy abroad, rather than just raw national interest.
  • Educational Idealism: A philosophy of education that focuses on the development of the mind, character, and moral values through the study of classic works and ideas, often using the Socratic method.
  • Artistic Idealism: Romantic or idealistic art that does not depict the world as it is (realism), but as it should be—more beautiful, perfect, or noble.
Key Contrasts
  • Idealism vs. Materialism: Idealism asserts that consciousness is primary; Materialism asserts that matter is primary.
  • Idealism vs. Realism (Political): Idealism promotes value-driven policy; Realism promotes interest-driven policy.
  • Idealism vs. Pragmatism: Idealism strives for the ideal goal, even if unrealistic; Pragmatism focuses on what is achievable and functional.
AI can make mistakes, so double-chick before they take over, if your wife approves.
