Just ate 2 huge pot cookies. I made a batch of butter from an oz of shake - 16 cookies from 1/2 the butter & 8 from the other half.
These are 2 of the 8 BIG ones.
I'm gonna be fucked up in about an hour

“In this sense the Dionysian man resembles Hamlet: both have once looked truly into the essence of things, they have gained knowledge, and nausea inhibits action; for their action could not change anything in the eternal nature of things; they feel it to be ridiculous or humiliating that they should be asked to set right a world that is out of joint. Knowledge kills action; action requires the veils of illusion: that is the doctrine of Hamlet, not that cheap wisdom of Jack the Dreamer who reflects too much and, as it were, from an excess of possibilities does not get around to action. Not reflection, no--true knowledge, an insight into the horrible truth, outweighs any motive for action, both in Hamlet and in the Dionysian man.
Now no comfort avails any more; longing transcends a world after death, even the gods; existence is negated along with its glittering reflection in the gods or in an immortal beyond. Conscious of the truth he has once seen, man now sees everywhere only the horror or absurdity of existence; now he understands what is symbolic in Ophelia's fate; now he understands the wisdom of the sylvan god, Silenus: he is nauseated.
Here, when the danger to his will is greatest, art approaches as a saving sorceress, expert at healing. She alone knows how to turn these nauseous thoughts about the horror or absurdity of existence into notions with which one can live: these are the sublime as the artistic taming of the horrible, and the comic as the artistic discharge of the nausea of absurdity. The satyr chorus of the dithyramb is the saving deed of Greek art; faced with the intermediary world of these Dionysian companions, the feelings described here exhausted themselves.”

when you get tired of the rain, send it over here. my grass is brown, the moss is dead, and the rocks in my yard are shriveling up from lack of water...

WOW FUK THAT, 8" FAN FOLLOWED BY SILENCER FOLLOWED BY FILTER.
I probably rub Suzi's belly 10-15 times a day, and she never looks satisfied like the dog below.......
instead, 100% of the time she gets this worried look on her face exactly like this doxie. She must be thinking "I hope he doesn't stop rubbing this time."

Hello all,
but on a totally unrelated side note:
This season brings a whole new dimension to the phrase
"If you can't dazzle them with brilliance then baffle them with bullshit"
Talk among yourselves, there's coffee and a lovely day-old pound cake on the table. I am feeling a little verklempt.

Hello all,
Just another interesting tibit I spied with my inner eye...
"We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men – not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate, and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular”
