The more people that could be even potential union members, the stronger the union's negotiating position is.

I have two kids, 9 and 11, and neither of them are screaming and yelling about what music to play. If they want to listen to music, they know to go to the rumpus room and pick out a vinyl.

That is a good point, I had not considered that use case.

You could also just not buy one of those awful things. I have never seen a legitimate use for it that wasn't misplaced adolescent tech fantasies (omg I can tell big brother to make coffee and my keurig starts up!). But maybe my line of business has made me excessively paranoid / niche

I would like to make an edit: functionality for those with disabilities is a huge use-case I did not consider. Thank you for your insightful comments

Someone whom I know ordered a sizable quantity of 1P-LSD from them and gave a strip to me. I gotta say it was some of the best "acid" I have ever done, maybe even better since on 1P I'm actually able to fall asleep after 8-10 hours of tripping. With LSD-25 if I dose at noon I'll be up until 8am the next day. Other than that there is no discernible difference.

I'm almost positive they operate out of Waterloo's lab or have significant access to their facilities. Otherwise I'm boggled at how they can make sure pure stuff in such quantities.

Hopefully, the psychedelic legalization initiatives in CO and OR will pass and the US can catch up again ;)

If you have a storage unit why are you sleeping on the streets ? Or am I misreading?

I wish you the best of luck. I am friends with several published literary personalities and I can tell you it is not easy and took a lot longer than three years.

Less so than you might think. I met my share of characters, sure, but most of the time when I wasn't synthing I was either driving through the middle of nowhere or waiting around. I read a lot of books in a lot of motel rooms and taught myself Attic Greek and programming to pass the time. My first language was Perl via the o'reily book and I used to write out the solution code on a legal pad.

It was after I made the amount of money I wanted that things got weird haha

For twenty years I made and sold LSD across the East Coast. I spent my youth and perhaps most of my sanity doing it. For the longest time I lived by only one rule: Are you kind? Now I can pretty much do whatever the fuck I want. It's great, but not for everyone.

I wonder which startup PG is referring to in the first link...

Also, wow, all those comments of people plugging their level 3 and above startups did NOT age well
