It's becoming more common, but I work in the cannabis industry. People don't tend to know much about exactly what I do and how weed sales works. The education and certification side of this is actually super unique. You do have to get a basic agent ID, but it's really more of a background check than anything. But, because the rec market is so very new here, you are basically required to have broken the law extensively to have the knowledge and experience needed to sell weed. Everyone I work with has a criminal past, even if they never got busted. I talked about buying psychedelics on the darkweb in my interview, and my HR person knew exactly what the fuck I was talking about. It's just one of the many wonderful things about working in cannabis <3

Either full album from Little Mazarn. Io and Texas River Song have a sincerity that could spare us. They would show the gentleness, nuance, and sophistication of our species. And Marfa Lights might be about them! If I had to pick a single song, it's definitely Peace Like a River, the first track on Io, about living with peace and understanding in the face of struggle and loss. I'm going hard on the wager that we don't want to come off as erratic or dangerous. We want to be portrayed as a safe potential new member of interplanetary society.

No I just thought it was funny that you actually came back. Mimicking your formatting was a bit of a joke, see. Watch, I'll do it again!

oh you got no punctuation i see

I have one that I don't think is shallow or petty. I avoid the Wondergrove cannabis company because there is a children's show/educational program of the same name. While state regulators are making cannabis brands who have made no attempts to advertise to or appeal to children change their packaging to single color designs to reduce their appeal to children, there is a weed brand named after a kid's show that calls its flower line "Field Trip." I call it "Kid Weed" because it makes me think of the WKUK Kid Beer sketch. And I don't buy it.

Oohh I get this one. Me to a friend the other day: "As long as you're still getting a divorce, I LOVE YOU!" If she doesn't go through with this divorce, we're not friends anymore...

Me but when I identify weed strains by sight and smell.

it always fascinates me how eagerly no life losers seek and lash out at people, if it allows them to feel better about themselves

Ngl I had to look it up to be sure. I was correct, but I wasn't confident.

Wife isn't really looking because she is graysexual and doesn't really want any additional deep emotional connections

This kinda describes my wife's boyfriend's wife. (That was just fun to type out) Basically, because of the place and way she was raised, she didn't understand that she was ace until she had two kids, and her sex life continued to exist. She was/is more or less done with that part of her life. She has two kids and a husband and a home, and that's why she was having sex to begin with. As long as she has those things, she doesn't care that her husband does things she does not enjoy with some other women. She's happy with the way her life is. Plz don't make her add sex back into the equation.

With those two words polyamory, a practice as old as humanity and in every corner of the world, has been..... FINALLY DEBUNKED! I can't believe I was here for the destruction of a lifestyle!

I upvoted you. I asked for experiences. I was hoping for success stories, but I came into this understanding that most people don't have them. If literally nobody on Lemmy but me had a good polyamory story, that would be valid and wouldn't discourage me.

I actually consider myself a selfish person. But I experience huge amounts of compersion. It makes me so happy when good things happen to the people I care about. It's selfish of me to want more than one partner and to revel in my wife's other relationship. But I'll be damned if senseless or traditional moralizing is going to stop me from being or making people happy.

Omg yes. This is the primary discussion of polyamory, and it drives me crazy. None of that common description looks like my life.

I should really think more about compersion. It's an idea that I think and talk about frequently, but it's a term my brain hasn't yet held for the long term. But I have huge amounts of compersion. I get so excited when good things happen to the people I care about. Our polyamory thrives on how happy it makes me to see my wife in that happy, lovey way with someone. I am just as delighted that my best friend was recently promoted to AM as I am that I was promoted to key lead with her. Compersion is a big part of my life that I should give more space and respect to express itself.

DO NOT ADD ANOTHER PERSON BECAUSE OF YOUR FAILING RELATIONSHIP

It's insane to me that this apparently must be said by multiple people with massive emphasis. We only considered this because our relationship was and still is so strong. We just met really young and have a lot of love to give. I don't want to lose my wife or have had only one great romance in my life. She didn't want marrying a woman to mean she would never experience men again. So we share the incredible bounty of love in which we live.

It didn't involve the assistant manager of a cheap motel, did it? I guess if you were the person I know who had that experience, you'd probably recognize my name and story.

We opened up an existing relationship, but it was more my idea for her to have a boyfriend. I knew she romanticized affairs and infidelity. I knew that her experience of being with a man romantically and physically is meaningfully different from how we are together. And I've just never been that sort of possessive, so I encouraged her to seek out something I couldn't give her

People already suck at handling a single relationship so statistically handling more is just significantly more difficult

I guess that's a fair point. My wife and I were the stable thing in each other's lives for years before this started. We have a love that can't be stopped and have navigated more together than most couples ever will. Neither of us would have considered a second partner if we thought it could have weakened our foundational relationship. That is what has freed us to have these experiences.

Yes! Pronoun reference errors hurt my very soul, but they are an inherent risk and pitfall of all pronoun usage. It is fun, when someone is resistant to using another person's pronouns or is a dumb fuck bitching about pronouns because an angry bigot shouted about pronouns on TV, to point out that those people already use pronouns like shit. Because they always claim a concern for accuracy, then speak and write like shit.
