I'm in my early sixties, and I call it pot. My dad was born in the late nineteen twenties and called it grass, but I think he picked that up from younger people than himself. I think maybe young people today call it weed but i'm not sure. What do you call the funny green stuff and how old are you?
I really like the physical sensations from marijuana. The first one I always get after I eat an edible is my lungs get really happy. I am much more aware of my breath going in and out, and it feels really pleasurable. If I eat 3 or 4 edibles at once, I get a lot more sensations. I get a tingling in my ears, my eyeballs and eyelids, and my nostrils--basically, it seems like anything to do with senses gets lit up. Also I become really aware of my uterus. How do I know it's my uterus? It's exactly where I used to get cramps back when I got my period. It doesn't hurt, but there's sensation there that reminds me a little bit of cramps.
How about the rest of you? Thanks.
As I understand it, when the US was founded, one group of founders wanted slavery and the other group did not. They came up with a number of compromises to build a country together despite their differences. This came back and bit us a hundred years later in the US Civil War. I don't think we can talk about present politics in this group, but I think it's an ongoing issue.
My question is: are there countries that were founded by people with values and goals for the country that conflicted and that have not had ongoing conflict as a result? Or should it simply be the advice, if you are founding a new country or a new government, do not do so with people that you do not have common cause with even if that means building a country with less territory and population?
Thank you.
I work at a library so people ask for recommendations a lot. A Black friend ask me if I could recommend a novel about Black women that didn't include child sexual abuse or rape. I think of her every time I read a book about Black women. So far I haven't found one that doesn't have sexual abuse rape or lynching. I haven't asked her but I'm assuming the topic of lynching wouldn't be something she would want to read about in a novel. Can anyone make a recommendation? It doesn't have to be a happy Disney story, it could have conflict at work or something.
