I haven't grown any for a few years but this made me reconsider so I just ordered CB Diesel Strain CBD Feminized - it's 20% CBD and 1% THC. At 76 YO I'm not really interested in getting stoned anymore (had enough of that in the 70s through 90s 🀣)

The production of the gas your car needs is tantamount to a Rube Goldberg machine. The insanity of sticking with this is made apparent by turmoil in the Middle East. If sanity prevailed the switch to solar would explode.

Umm, No, God Did Not Ordain a Vile, Traitorous Serial Predator. Alleged Christians Did. If I hear one more Evangelical claim that God anointed Donald Trump, I swear I’m gonna rapture myself.

If I hear one more Evangelical claim that God anointed Donald Trump, I swear I’m gonna rapture myself.
It’s sinful.
It’s blasphemous.
It’s lousy evangelism.
It’s terrible theology.
It’s also just plain asinine.
