JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what forums are out there that people actually go to, besides Lemmy?English1·1 month agoThere are a few cannabis related ones, though activity is here or there on one or two. UK420, THCTalk, ICMag, GrowCity, etc.
When they get too long, the industry sells the hairs to Hollywood, for various props like long beards.
I don’t get to meet anyone famous, though Sir Ian McKellen said thanks once or three times.
I straighten below hairs for Japanese adult entertainment employees. Usually a Philips does the job, however for some folks I’ve had to whip out the ironing board. It’s a tough job.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is one video game cheat code that will you will always remember?1·3 months agoSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island.

JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you could choose who was president who would it be?1·3 months agoMy mate Tim. He has no political experience, however he has some rad ideas.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How are the prices of eggs impacting your life?2·3 months agoIve always spent a bit extra for a certain brand of eggs, which I prefer, so I haven’t noticed a great deal of difference if I’m honest.
Can’t be skimping on good egg.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's your favorite unbelievable fact?42·3 months agoI have heard that this is more true for some people in Tijuana.

I mean, I probably am, but that’s besides the point I think!
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is this a Maggot and, if yes, what kind?9·6 months ago… How did you get rid of the wasps? Or is it a ‘they live here now, Bob’s the king of section 3-b’ sort of thing?
215 so far. Just a lot of doom posting, or politics.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you secretly judge people for?341·6 months agoWhenever another guy recommends something I find repulsive, for various reasons, I tend to write off most respect I had for that person.
Lately some guys have talked positively about Andrew Tate, and it’s just made it easier for me to know who is a gullible prick and who to avoid.
I’ve volunteered at Pride a few times, been to more, and honestly I tell people if they’re in those events and are in danger (like someone is following them or they feel scared after an incident) to look for drag queens and go straight towards them.
I have personally witnessed how militant they can be when it comes to protecting weaker folk, and some of them are RIPPED!! I don’t really know exactly what the reasoning behind it is, though in my experience they’ll keep you safe.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what addiction have you kicked? no matter how insignificant you feel it was3·8 months agoNot long after my mother recovered from chemotherapy, my grandmother passed away. I was tasked with disposing of my mother’s morphine, however I decided to take it for relief.
I was addicted not to the feeling of being numb so much, but the initial euphoria. I would snort the morphine in powder form. I know I did some rudimentary conversion, however after kicking it I forgot every single step and cannot remember a lot of that time.
Over a year had passed, yet my knowledge of it is very little. It feels as though I have lost parts of my life… Like I mean, literally lost.The euphoric kick got less and less prevalent, and I felt as though I needed more in order to gain that initial kick - however I wasn’t even aware of this effect happening, despite all manners of media being rife with this step of opiate addictions. The act of increasing dosages came so naturally I don’t even think I made a conscious decision to, yet my tolerance rose to points where I was taking multiple times the lethal dose (for someone with base tolerance levels).
I saw what it was doing to me at one point, just by happenstance of looking into the mirror for a moment longer than usual.
I went cold turkey, and it was… Well, hell doesn’t even describe how this felt. It took about a couple of weeks, with the first being the worst.
I had locked myself up in my room, telling some folks to check up on me periodically, online friends mainly, and what to do if I don’t respond within a given time. I recall a moment where one of my friends was about to call an ambulance, because I was one minute late to answer (I was probably vomiting profusely).The very last time I did that was in the second or third week of November, 2012.
I understand that going cold turkey could be very dangerous, especially with a built up tolerance, however at that point I would not have been able to wean myself off of the stuff. I was too far in, and without going extremely hard into it I probably would have died not too long after.
If you have a friend going through opiate addiction, please be there for them. That’s all I can say.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What should I do about my parents moving closer.37·9 months agoThey taught OP how to use a spoon and wipe his bum, and he’s making it sound like it would be a chore to have a cup of tea with them.
I don’t get it either.
I think it was Track and Field, then I think my brother didn’t like the Commodore and they exchanged that for an NES (I don’t know about the transaction, I was very young). Most of my earliest gaming memories are of SMB1.
I was around 3 or so, at the time.
Firefox. Not enough people know that you can install extensions on FF Android, including uBlock Origin.
JadenSmith@sh.itjust.worksto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•In your opinion what will WW3 look like and who would be the players on each side?2·9 months agoJust a hunch, but it seems to me that in an event to be called WW3 there would be a lot of infighting. There just appears to be a lot more civil unrest in recent decades, and I just have a feeling it would be a war much more fragmented than the ones before it.
I have much less wonder now, and it is ruining my day to day enjoyment at times. It is hard to dream big when you know more about the world, and how corrupt it all can be. They call it depression, but when reasons are provided for lack of opportunities it’s seen as downright shameful to be upset about it.
I miss the times when I was more naive about the world, it made it all interesting.
Seeing kids smile, hearing them laugh. Like, if I’m on the bus and I hear a baby laughing, with those early crackly chuckles they get, it just taps into something within me and brightens my mood. Very difficult to frown with such pure happiness around.
