Added weed to chicken soup and ate that. I still have maybe a quarter oz left from before Christmas. Apparently there has been another 24% in taxes added to the price of reefer here, bringing the total tax to 40%. But it's still cheap and I plan on being a consumer,

".. YEAR ONE - US Taxpayer pays: $858 Million in ICE signing bonuses, $170 Billion to Stephen Miller Immigration enforcement, $40 billion to Argentinian Farmers, $110 Million for Trump golf, $30 million for Trump birthday parade, $40 Million for JD Vance 8 vacations, $200 Million for Kristi Noem private jets, $62 Million plane with security detail used for Kash Patel girlfriend visits, $100 Billion to Venezuela, $135 Billion in Musk DOGE costs (including Musk getting all your personal info), $500 Billion additional to military, $200 billion reimbursement to energy companies for repairing Venezuelan infrastructure, $2.5 Billion contract to Palantair Technologies whose tech is used for mass surveillance on US citizens. Plus $2,100 more in taxes paid per year per household for trump tariffs.

Trumps personal wealth increased $3 Billion in this one year. In one year he added $1.7 Trillion to federal deficit. He placed unqualified masked men on the street asking to see your papers. His shut down of USAID has led to 600 thousand deaths worldwide with an estimated 14 million deaths possible through 2030. He implemented funding cuts for environmental science, scientific research, the EPA, medicine, healthcare, the postal service, National Parks, public broadcasting and education.

Hedge fund manager Paul Singer gave $15 Million to Trumps PAC’s and $37 Million to republicans running for congress, he purchased Venezuelan oil company Citgo oil for cheap in a well-timed transaction - 2 months before the illegal US invasion of Venezuela. He is expected to make billions..."

Too bad I don't have enough shit together to be a drug dealer. That's a sales job you can do from home and you don't need a winning personality because your clientele is desperate.

Near 24/7 work, ripoffs, collections, police, supply chain issues, maintaining connections while also watching that they have not become informants......  it is a very demanding job.  I don't think you have the gumption for it.

I was a bookie for a long time. No one ever bothered me, no one ever won.

Over 3 decades in contraband trade, 1 arrest, no convictions.  It's not quite the same thing.

we finally got our 35,000 BTU heating oil heater working… but I also keep a 1500 W space heater next to the bed while I’m under the electric blanket. I’m in quite a bit of pain right now they say my hypothalamus gland is not working right anymore, which is why I’m so cold. It’s not regulating heat correctly. I’m totally bedbound now. I can’t use my right arm or shoulder at all. Left hip is starting to go out supposed to be replaced in six months and I have a current shoulder separation in my right shoulder. My hand right now is swollen up the size of basketball.
You need a sleeping bag under the electric blanket.
