ive a number of pursuits that don't meet legal mustar
least wise didnt traditionally

one in particular has really seemed to gain politically of recent an its going through the pains of birthing relegitimacy

kinda the deal when corperate interest see profits and make demands which politicians are bound to respond to where as before armys of constituents couldnt find an ounce of quarter

i used to mock the nacent advocates who were in the process of giving away all their hard fought gains to mickyD basically

id put it like this...

"you fucks and your freedom! youd sell it in a minute for a cell in a lock down IF they let you grow a plant in the closet and read as you wished..."

and they would

and they did...



theres a lot to like about this place BUT for the most part i can see that all of youd happily sign yourself up for a cell with bars if it came with an amazon prime version of a library card

wouldnt you?

What?

That's mad.

Ok, ok! I think I parsed it. I think he's saying that he's in the pot-growing business and that even in newly legal states it's still only borderline legal given what Federal law says. And then after that I think he's talking about corporate lobbying, where you give up your gains to sway the Congress, and where you're fighting for de-regulation. But then he seems to say that they don't really care about freedom, what they care about is money and getting what they want, and they'd sell their freedom for a prison cell if it was comfortable enough.

I guess this is tangentially related to Dune, insofar as I can imagine that pre-jihad the people had voluntarily (or in some cases involuntarily) sold their freedom away for the convenience of having machines do everything for them. Not exactly the same thing as the pot issue, but I can see the argument that "freedom" advocates don't really believe in freedom as an abstract principle and are merely voracious materialists.

How did I do, distrans??

I'm beginning to feel distrans' handle is particularly apt.

I was thinking it was originally an Economist article on the geopolitical consequences of Chinese stamp downs on the Uighurs in Xinjiang, only the article was whispered by the author into the ear of a listener, then passed down the same way through 500 other people. Distrans just heard it last.

im told writing it down is a major fuck up...

george got it


the folks who kept it alive and tripled its content have been shunted aside by the business model which has gotten one element of the state to relent in the worest of its persecution

taxing it to death is unconsciousable
same with holding all the POWs

the good money see it as politicians seeing a structure full of holes happens to have alot of support so fuck yea!

the tax CREATES the black market and lets get more robocops cuz we got all these mom and pops opperations to bust meanwhile high crime as moved into forging the labels it takes to get your shit on the publics plate in these places...

Well, not sure high taxes = typical POW mistreatment. But aren't you allowed to grow a certain amount for personal use? I was going to do a CA continuing legal education class on pot law, but never got around to it. But despite my ignorance, pretty sure you can grow your own, for personal use.

Or are you pissed that your own operation is going to get busted? Cry me a river.

This explains everything.

careful now with that tempting reveal of what irons you keep in the fire...
a light on for


me its a not so old scripture that goes

"i asked 'where are the poor' and they called me a saint...
i asked 'why are they poor' and they called me a communist"

when miners break into tunnels someone dug in ways they don't understand
they call it 'old works'

it amazes me how I can see it so obviously in certain regards
while riding the head of one of them going his rounds without even knowing it...

so again

we have reached an inpass where
ordinarily we all retreat satisfied

ive a question

what is the begging something that you see my reasoning oblivious to?

id like to hear it from those who read around here...

what am i not getting?!?!?


seriously,'

Kinda hoping they don't have computers in jail.
