Flannel is a regular look for me. Usually a brewery t-shirt and everything else Duluth Trading.
Sadly, I can not pull off a full beard well. I tried back when I headed off for brewing schoool. I’ve got bare patches, and my mustache is longer on one side than the other and doesn’t connect to the beard.
I’ve got the photo of me attempting the look on my student visa. I refer to it as my IRA Mugshot.
Well, as long as we’re sharing flannel photos, here’s mine from my 1979 Amoco Oil Company ID card. I wear my hair on the inside now (as in: almost gone ). That’s natural, BTW.
I have never had success with Melatonin. I find it pretty useless. The edible products work much better for me. There are different combinations of ingredients in these things. Some have THC, CBD, CBG, and CBN. Smoking has always irritated my stomach, but the edibles (gummies) work just fine. The ones I bought in Portland worked wonderfully. The brand is called Wylde. But you have to purchase the ones made specifically for sleep. Companies like Lazarus or CBDistillery will sell a variety of products. There is a great shop in Austin called Sweet Sensei.
It’s a shame how some brands change over time; finding the exact same experience years later can be tricky. I haven’t come across non-filtered paper-wrapped Djarums lately, but I’d imagine some niche tobacco shops or international sellers might still have them if you dig deep enough.
I posted in this thread and Djarums wasn’t something I mentioned, however aren’t those like east Indian Bedees?
I said Quadzilla… Not recommended for the untrained. Hehehe…
There’s a name I haven’t heard in a long, long time. I worked in the warehouse of one of these for 2 years in high school. The other kid and I would pop the loading door open when they were closing up in front at night and get stoned while we waited.
That was my first job @ 15 as a seasonal helper on the registers during the holidays. Next few years I came back and worked in the warehouse as well. Loved that gig!
Yes, THC is known to cause problems with sleep quality and reduction of REM sleep. CBD alone or in combination with THC up to 1:1 may help some people.
You might look into vitamin deficiencies if you haven’t, low vitamin D and B as well as low magnesium can affect sleep. I used to have trouble falling asleep, i’d have to be exhausted or i’d just lie there for hours but since i started taking vitamin D3+K2, B complex and B12, i can just lie down and fall asleep in about 5 mins.
My job in that age range was at McDonalds, and while I am sure there was lots of bakery action happening, it was a lot more about hooking up. People from at least four different high schools worked there and so it was a perfect new social-consequence-free dating pool for everyone.
For us, it was the girls at the eateries around Service Merchandise. I dated a girl at the Ledo’s pizza across the street who went to my school’s big rival at the time. That’s how my almost 29 year old came to exist.
If we’re including the now-legal stuff too, I’ve noticed more folks around me leaning toward medical cannabis rather than traditional cigars or cigarettes. Personally, I’ve been exploring it more from a wellness angle — especially after reading some of these curaleaf reviews. Seems like they really focus on personalized treatment, which is pretty different from the casual smoking scene but still part of that broader conversation.
I’ve been a medicinal consumer for about 5 years now and it’s hard to get me to shut up about the benefits. I’ve got my daytime stuff that I vape at a super low temp so I’m a functioning human but with waaaay less anxiety and my night time stuff for when I want to mellow out. The only problem is now my tolerance is through the roof and actually getting stoney baloney takes some effort
I need to record myself playing when I’m high. I feel like I play better. I’m freed from hang-ups, self analysis, and insecurities. I also feel like I have a better sense of the texture and character of my playing.
But it could just be that… I feel like I’m better because I’m high.
(However, when I have had alcohol, I notice that messing up my playing skills.)
