is it from wildfire smoke?
I've worked in a lot of kitchens and carbon build up is one of the worst things to remove. Might be best off replacing it as others said.
Hot vinegar will remove sugars. Rubbing alcohol or other solvents will remove oils. For burned carbon we used something called carbon off which is very caustic because we're also made of carbon.
This.
I do my research before I am anywhere near a salesperson.
the chip basically. twist them up in little fry bags is how I would package them.
First Cessation?
I started mediating and studying buddha-dharma when I was incarcerated in 2015 and sustained a daily mindfulness practice for three years or so.
I was released just before covid and my practice fell off during the pandemic.
Over the week leading up to father's day I had a breakdown and some of the mental health issues that got me arrested in 2015 resurfaced. At the tailend of the breakdown I put on a body scan and had taken a small dose of psilocybin. I had also been working with a Buddhist therapist who has mentioned something about resting in the space between the end of the outbreath and the beginning of the inbreath.
The bodyscan starts by anchoring to the breathing and I let my attention rest completely in the breathing. And as the guided meditation was finishing up I noticed a vibration, like a snore but in consciousness itself, this vibration. Coarse. And I understood this is dukkha. And in the next moment, at the bottom of the breath, there was a moment where this vibration was absent.
The birds were still singing. My body was still on the mat. But for a moment, the intense suffering I had been experiencing over the previous week, was completely absent. And the moment was most defined by this contrast.
I experimented with it over the course of the night and was able to repeat the experience. At the bottom and top of the breathing, but also right in the middle. And I could tell a difference between clinching (trying to make the skip happen by holding the breathing or holding the thinking) and finding the skip by being aware of and letting go of dukkha.
My therapist is on vacation right now so I haven't had a chance to ask her about it.
But I am curious for other people's thoughts or experiences.
Thanks

saw smoke as a weather forecast all week here
and it's just going to be like this going forward I fear
would love to do an OG Zelda playthrough with my kid and then try to beat the second quest
and drunk people can be annoying and it is hard to opt out of being around them at the bar
Cannabis can be edible and here in Milwaukee we're already seeing farm bill delta9 show up in bars and restaurants.
I did that too. Was annoying not being able to post in half the communities I enjoyed everytime I did this.
But much less annoying than getting doxxed.
deglazing. it's when you use an acid to pull all the glaze off the bottom of a pan. it flavors the dish and makes cleaning your pan easier.
rice vinegar and red or white wines are favorites
I've just started it and mostly enjoy it. But the writing can be pretty bad sometimes. Not so bad I can't overlook it, but bad enough it pulls me out of my suspended disbelief.
