DUDE

Actually I have a lot of experience with this. I don't smoke at all, period, I vastly prefer making tincture. (I hate calling it "green dragon," that sounds fucking stupid.)
Decarbing is simple, you grind you weed, you bake it in an oven. 50 minutes at 225 F is what I use. There's different temperatures and times you can use, but low and slow is generally better so you can be sure you've activated ALL the weed without any risk of destroying THC (which is around 325 iirc)

So, first: Get yourself a stronger spirit. Get yourself the strongest alcohol you can get a hold of, like Everclear or Bacardi 151. The stronger the alcohol the more potent the extraction.

Second: The method where you just soak your herb in alcohol for a couple weeks sucks. It sucks REALLY hard. If you want a good extraction you need to apply heat. The good part is this reduces the prep time from several days or weeks down to half an hour.

Infodump time.
If you can spare the expense, get yourself a hot plate and a temperature controller (Inkbird ITC-308 is what I use, it's $30 on Amazon) and simmer your herb in alcohol for half an hour at about 170 F, which is just under the boiling point of alcohol.
Use a double boiler setup with a small pot of water and a small mason jar in the water, with your alcohol, your herb, and the temperature probe in the jar. Do this underneath the range hood on your stove, with the fan on. As long as you're not boiling the alcohol there's zero risk of fire hazard. (Alcohol vapors are flammable.)
Keep it at temperature for half an hour, and when you're done strain it out through some cheesecloth and you're done. I put it in an eyedropper bottle, you can order them for a few bucks a pop. One dropper and you're high, two droppers and you're fucking GONE.
You can keep the herb after you squeeze it out, there's still some THC in it (alcohol extraction is only 80% efficient at the most) so you can reuse it to make some cannabutter or something.

I've done it years ago, decarb for half an hour or so in the oven at 120c from memory? Stink the house out. But then I put it in a bottle of vodka and after some time the best word for it was disgusting. If I would do it again I'd go for as strong a spirit as I could get, a tincture that you pour a little under the tongue, because there are some nasty tasting things in the plant that will be soluble in water and probably plenty in alcohol as well. Reduce it down and you will have an oil extract which might be a better option. But if you go for that butane is better for a clean golden oil and it boils at room temp, just beware the flammable gas.

hey man, im not disregarding your legit problems and addictions. im only saying what i see in my experience, and in other people i know. I know good people that blackout and are very much themselves, and i know other people that when they black out you really see the people they are behind closed doors. I dont know what you've seen, but different people are different, and i know you trust your psych, but personal experience is far more valuable than a technical and purely medical perspective. They can categorize, but they cant sympathize; because each individual is truthfully very different and behaves in their own personal manner of intent and desire.

Im not saying you're a good or bad person, but nobody, not even your psych can tell you what you WANT to feel, think, or do. Thats your choice. I cant comment on the interactions of multiple drugs and alcohol, but i know that all these drugs lower inhibition and may very well make you behave in ways that arent in line with your purposeful intent. I hope you think and do good things. Please, pardon the audacity of my opinion.

>>9830139
altered states are more altered when sober. ..im not mentally and emotionally stable. My conscious thoughts are my drug, and they are more addictive than any substance. Im not in control because my thoughts make me feel out of control. Thats why i drink alcohol in copious amounts. However, i can choose to drink a little or a lot. Its easy to drink a lot, and i pay for it in following days and weeks. Its a sinking cyclical depression for which i have no reason. They say that alcoholics always try to find a reason to drink, but it seems that we have no reason at all, else we would stop drinking.

No. Not drinking has no negative aspect in life.
Worst case, a closet alkie will tell you you're not fun or not trustworthy (it's a common tactic for people who are denying having a problem to say "everybody drink daily, I'm normal" and thus try to force it onto others.)

There are genes for "sensibility to addiction". It includes all addictive substances, gambling, workaholism, extreme sports, etc. It's about your pleasure/reward chemical system I think.

someone in my family was just taken away in an ambulance to the ER for alcoholism. They found him in his bed with a beer in his hand near dead. Hes been drinking for a long time, and these past 3 months hes been going way off the deep end. Hes had two major binges resulting in hospitalization after being sober for a long time. Hes gotten everything he almost lost BACK and now hes been spending this entire week Drunk and avoiding everyone and everything, and

you dont want to look like he does. you dont want it. Covered in shit, vomit, and piss, lying in his bed putrid with every bodily fluid, his whole room trashed and reeking of alcohol and shit smell he looked dead.
Imagine the most disgusting room you can live in, levels of disgusting you cant imagine finding yourself in for a single second. Imagine most alcohol you can consume and even more than that in one day. Imagine yourself laying in a coffin instead of a bed. Imagine how these things look. Place yourself in that room with all the alcohol you could ever want, and place yourself in that coffin before you go to sleep.

This is your life. This is what your life can be.
Do you want this? Do you want kidney and liver failure? Do you want to feel 30 years older than you are? Do you want to smell like death when you see your family, friends, coworkers, that one girl that might pull you into a place of happiness one day in a store you didnt mean to walk into so drunk off your ass you vomit on her feet?! NO!

If you want that, you want to die. My advice is to smash your bottle and cut your writs now, because you Do not want to die an alcoholics death. Its disgusting, more than just for the smell. Get to rehab. Take a fuckin hike in the woods. Get off your ass, and DO SOMETHING.

Tell them you wish they would hurry to die so you can be free of Guilt when you kill yourself. Tell them that you're not sorry for helping to get them stable, medically, financially, emotionally. Tell them that they're as useless as you are. That you are too good and too content to drink yourself to death than to spend a moments time to work together with the people that gave you the grand opportunity to waste your life away in wait for their lives to waste away.
You already know what they need. Help them get that. Because even if you want to die, you know too well that you're already dead. What harm could come from trying? Do try, not tomorrow or the day after. Now.

I know im not psychotherapist, but he needs to feel bad. he needs to feel worse than he thinks he can. But its better he be pushed, than for him to drag himself. I learned this the hard way, from my experience and the experience of my family members. It can only get better if you have someone that has got your back, and is gonna push and knows when to pull. Everyone needs a push or else they'll just go at their own pace, even if they feel like slowing to a crawl and going nowhere. I got my push, but not before i dragged myself way down. But i got right back up.

With some initial setup, a mars settlement would be perfectly sustainable.

The planet has usable soil (with some additives), water, mineral and metal deposits, and inactive lava tubes that can be converted into habitats and labs with minimal cost.

Here's what you'd need:
Inflatable habitats designed to fill a mars lava tube, food, water, oxygen supply for startup, solar reactor to synthesize water, hydrogen, and oxygen from the soil. Nuclear reactor for baseline energy, solar panels and storage batteries for backup.
Industrial induction based metal forges and 3d printers for making new items.
Healthy supply of earthworms.
Human waste product (can be manufactured on-site).
Mining equipment.
Space suits.
Silk worms.
Chemistry lab with supplies and machines for basic production of polymers and plastics from Mars supply of Methane.
Lab with materials and machines to produce silicate glass from materials on Mars.

There would be several ships full of materials, machines, and supplies to make it self-sufficient, but you'd need the same thing on Earth to colonize a new island.

Somewhat surprised no one mentioned this, but alcoholism and sugar addiction are very similar. Alcoholics tend to possess extreme sweet tooths, and high sugar content candy used to be recommended as an aid to weening off booze.

A lot of spirits use sugar in the distilling process, and while becoming a different form molecularly, I think it goes something like the brain gets used to craving it all the same (or something, I'm no doctor). As an alcoholic, I definitely love to snack on some good gummies while I'm drinking, and have a pretty much constant craving for them while sober.

A cheap and decent alternative to copper mesh is stainless steel scrubbers.
I would advise you not to go for a pot still. Too much work, especially when filtering the booze. Better to go the extra mile and build a good VM or LM column, it's a lot easier to get good vodka from them.

Waking up after last night's bottle of Jim Beam.

Wife downed most of it, went totally mental and abusive and shit. Had to drive her to work at 6 AM in the snow because she was still wasted.

So... yeah man thinking about going to get a new bottle and getting fucked as soon as the liquor store opens.
