I only use flower during the winter months, as my hippy auntie in Modesto won’t grow it in the summer — too hot. She charges loved ones $100 an ounce plus shipping, so a way better deal than retail here in Missouri. I don’t care to smoke flower so I make firecrackers instead. Taste like shit and get you high AF. During the hotter (by Modesto standards) months — viz, now — I buy oil cartridges from my favorite dispensary.

On Friday I stopped in after work and bought a couple of cartridges, and for their 4/20 special they gave me a gram of top shelf flower as a lagniappe.

So I’m about ten minutes, for the first time ever, I’m going to eat a homemade edible with top shelf retail bud. I’ll report back later.

What exactly is a firecracker?

I bought a few strains, some oldies like Acapulco Gold and White Widow. I also got a new strain from a producer that I really like, it’s called Royal Ace #4: Goofiez, and it is very tasty.

Not weed, but I’ve been planning for some time to do psilocybin shrooms in a legal region - once my inflammation goes down and my blood-brain-barrier heals first.

TLDR: Sandwiches made with graham crackers, peanut butter and bud.

This is not specifically about a personal celebration of 4/20, but this thread seemed the best place to post a link to a Bluesky thread by Mark Hamill. Why? Because he posted a few pics of Scary Easter Bunnies, and dozens of others posted more. I guarantee a least a few genuine guffaw-out-loud moments\* for most who view these:

\* possibly more than a few for those who ARE celebrating 420!

I may not be hittin’ the bud, but I am glued to the couch for most of the day.

I am staring longingly at the bud but it’s probably past the use by date.  
Watching ASMR people tap on purses on You Tube.  
Gallivanting around Facebook trying to figure out who some of these people are in my Friends list.
