That's really interesting. Did many viewers click on your profile from that clip? I like that new people will eventually discover your forum and your long-form videos. They are such a gift. It's great that you're reaching more people.

@Leo Gura I've done a bit more research on making a vape cart using Liquify Pro and THCA isolate, and I read that recrystallization can happen if it’s not decarbed. Do you think decarbing is necessary (by simply heating the raw powder before adding any liquid), and have you ever tried it that way? Also, you mentioned a ratio of about 60:40 for weed resins, but does that same ratio apply to pure THCA isolate? I’m not sure what ratio would be appropriate to avoid leaks or clogging while also keeping it smooth to vape. I still don't have a good idea of what proportions would or wouldn't work in this case. For example, I've read that terpenes shouldn't make up more than 10% of the final mixture, but I don't know whether that's actually true. If it is, the mixture would be extremely potent, and I'm not sure that would work in a cart.

I wonder what effect it will have on me.

What is weed like for you, and what is so good about it? How does it compare to other psychedelics?

One very gruesome way to die is to be restrained and dismembered alive. I've seen videos of this, and it looks incredibly painful, especially since these crimes are often committed with machetes that barely cut. It can take a long time. It feels much more real to watch a video than to simply imagine an attack. I've also seen a video of someone being killed by a bear, but it wasn't as graphic. It's not one of the cases that immediately comes to mind when I think about suffering, even though it must be horrible. I also saw a video of a man's genitals being eaten by a dog. That one is gruesome as well. It's easy to find [dog eating man's dick] if anyone wants to reflect on transcending suffering. (For the record, I didn't search for it myself, I came across it on Facebook years ago).

@Leo Gura Do you ever wonder what a biological child of yours would have been like? Is that something you've had to accept, that you'll never be able to know, or did you simply never care about it?

Honestly, Pepsi tastes better than Coca-Cola. Not liking Pepsi is conformity

I just learned that they no longer offer the testing service for the time being because they didn't receive funding to continue the project. I feel a lot more at peace knowing that. Thanks for your feedback on this.

Probably. I just learned that there's a place where you can get any substance tested for free in my country, but it's about three hours away and only open one evening a week (and even less than that in the summer). It's not practical at all for me to go, but now that I know this option exists, I feel like I should somehow try to make it happen. Before I knew about it, I wasn't as concerned since there wasn't anything more I could do.

Thanks a lot. The seller seems credible, but there aren't many reviews. I got it from here (if that's okay to share). It's a good thing though that it's not likely to be laced with anything else. I guess I'll try to vape a very small amount to make sure it's safe. I'm also a bit concerned about labeling mistakes and things like that.

Thanks for your response. I didn't think about that. Though I ordered it from the Netherlands, where it seems to be in a gray area.

Do you use test kits for your THC-A, or send a sample to a lab to confirm its purity?

There is guidance in many different ways, even if you're not conscious of it. It just becomes much clearer after you die. I'm not really talking about the transition between life and death. That part is rather quick. It happens in an instant. In most cases, you'll be prepared for it, just as you prepared yourself to come here. There's no fall, unless you imagine there is one. Whatever you imagine could take place, so be careful about what you imagine after you die. Death is much closer to going home than to some unknown territory. You'll recognize that state once you're in it, since that's what you were before you were born, and that's what you've been for eternity. You made the choice to forget when you came here, and you obviously also forgot that you made that choice. Personally, I have some concerns about the people I'd leave behind, and I don't feel it's time for me to leave yet. But I don't fear death. If I were to die tomorrow, I am ready to go. Life is the hard part, not death.

When we used the word forced earlier, we were speaking about what happens after death, not about the perspective of the limited human form. From that perspective, it might seem forced, but from our Higher Consciousness, it's a choice we've made.

That's not what I wanted to say. It can't be about loving humans or about human love, since the illusion of being human completely ceases to exist after death. It's about the love between two Higher Consciousnesses. It doesn't have to be related to a human life. I'm not trapped in the illusion of being a human surrounded by other humans. The kind of love I'm talking about goes far beyond that. It would be closer to deeply connecting with another infinite being whose vibrations are so close to yours. That connection would give rise to an extremely profound expression of love. By "The love I feel for certain people", I meant the love I feel for their essence, their Higher Consciousness, or their divine nature. It isn't about loving their human expression or about wanting to reconnect with their human self. – That's not all that I care about after death, but it's not as shallow as you believe it is, either.
