On the upside, homegrows will be legal in NYS 18 months after the first NYS licensed dispo made their first sale. The first licensed dispo opened in NYC in December 2022. I did the math, and my grow can come out of the closet this June!

Dude, your grow is so far back in the closet its in fuckin Narnia.

And the bad luck piles on a bit more. Did a loan payment differal in January to swing new tires and just got a message saying my payment for January is 5 days past due! Called customer service only to have them tell me my December payment was differed. Look at your records, I made my December payment, why would I want to differ an already made payment!!! If this hits my credit report Im gonna be pissed. First Community Credit Union is the worst financial institution Ive ever had the displeasure of working with. Its like their loans are blantant entrapment. You cant make a payment without a 10 service fee, over the course of my loan thats 720 bucks in service fees. Now they are saying because its past due a deferral cannot be made. Ugh this year, I swear.

You hit the nail on the head right there.

I dislike the upvote/downvote system. Its supposed to be for "This is good" or "this is bad". Not "This is good" and "I disagree with this."

You can disagree without something being wrong or incorrect. But the younger crowd doesn't seem to get that. Just like identity politics. You can't say "I dislike Biden because...." without someone jumping down your throat calling you a trump supporter. Like slow your fucking roll here dude, I can dislike more than one politician at a time, and just because I dislike something about a Liberal doesn't make me a Conservative. But to those folks its extremely black and white.

And once someone downvotes you and your post drops to 0 or less, you might as well delete it, because once one person see's that downvote, they assume there is a reason for it and they downvote you too. No one has to justify why they are downvoting or think you are wrong. There is no room for discourse. And if you try, someone will dig through your post history and then be like "well 3 months ago you said you said you owned guns, so you are obviously a horrible conservative and should go kill yourself."

Yup reddit might as well change its name to hive-mind. Sure theres some funny shit on there, and some good looking plants too. For boredom scolling its not bad, but informational wise, its just trolls, or keyboard warrior moderators.

NY State Gov. Hochul was in the news today, admitting that the rollout of legal weed here has been a total clusterfuck ("disaster" she said). The poor farmers got the worst of it. Some of them went into hock to convert to growing licensed weed in 2021, and their harvests got stale because there were no licensed dispos yet to sell it to. There's one legal dispo that opened in my city before a bunch of frivolous lawsuits shut down the licensing process. Legal weed is $54 for 1/8 oz, while you can buy a whole oz for $50 on the local Seneca reservations.

Sounds like Illinois prices. Although IL has done some sweet deals on cresco. You get employee pricing almost all the time now, well at least at the dispo I go to because cresco is their "store" brand. Some 8ths in IL are 100 after tax.

The parenting subs are the worst.

This morning I got mega downvotes for replying to a post about ear piercings saying I'd ordered piercing needles and did my kids ears myself. Tons of hate for that.

Like holy shit, don't even pretend half you fucks didn't have a friend pierce your ears with a sowing needle and piece of ice. I ordered clean equipment and knew what I was doing and was completely safe about it.

You gotta remember the political affiliation with most of reddit users. Thats as far as I will get into that because I know politics isnt a subject discussed here, and Im all for that. You got hate cuz you arent a "licensed piercing artist" like it makes a difference with lobe piercings. At the end of the day you shove a needle through skin and keep it clean. Hell if you use the gun its literally shoving the earring through instead of a needle. Ive done plenty of piercings for people, cuz they were too scared to do it themselves, all alive, all still have em, all ears. I wont take a chance on body piercings.

I have a PA piercing that I removed about 7 or 8 years ago that hasn't closed up. I'm eventually going to have to go to a urologist and have it fixed.
