My friends and I make a trip down to Philly every year for this and it's a lot of fun

Has he tried hero realms? Same game, but fantasy themed *and* has a challenging/fun campaign you can play (My wife and I play it constantly)

Hero realms or Star realms - both great with 2 players since it can be vs or cooperative

This is a bad argument. You're staking your freedom or others freedom on an assumption. Legal rights are binary - they exist or they don't.
​
Arguably, no one is being arrested for mushrooms in vermont at the moment regardless of this legislation (if it passes). You do, however, run the risk of someone going nuts and trying to push these laws by opening a dispensary or flaunting federal rules too much which draws attention from the feds. Totally hypothetical until its not
​
Not to mention that mushrooms are not cannabis. They're not physically dangerous (well, arguably) but they're not without risk. Unfortunately most folks are too ignorant to do any research on them so they just treat them like weed. That's not the case, and one really really bad incident would be all it takes to reverse public opinion, repeating the 70s propagana bull shit all over again.

The replies here are more evidence of the low quality of Reddit than a reflection on Vermont. The internet isn't a real place. Your neighborhood is though.

This does not give you legal protections.

Reminder: decriminalization does not mean you are given legal protections. Even if this did pass, you can still be prosecuted under federal laws.

Norovirus spreads through sick people and contaminated surfaces Surfaces can get contaminated with norovirus in many ways, including when:
An infected person touches the surface with their bare hands that have feces or vomit particles on them An infected person vomits or has diarrhea that splatters onto surfaces Food, water, or objects that are contaminated with norovirus are placed on surfaces Tiny particles of vomit spray through the air and land on surfaces or enter a person’s mouth, then he or she swallows it
That's from the CDC. You're welcome to try your luck🤷♂️

I'd argue you get your selves straight to a hospital for a fluid IV. It rocked our household as well and we had 2 emergency room visits back-to-back. It spreads through the air, so if someone in your house has it, mask up, glove up, and bleach EVERYTHING. Bomb the literal shit out of the bathroom. Anywhere they're rocketing out fluids.
​
The good news is that the virus spreads so fast that it can't maintain it self and craters out, but god help ye for the 2-3 days its fuckin your shit up.

No, the optics are the 26k, the spokesperson is just how you handle constant inquiries and about as standard as standard gets.

Why lead acid? We're off grid with Storz Lithium and they're great with zero issues on installation, insurance, power level usage, or maintenance. Lead acid meanwhile, we used to have to balance them and you'd muck them up if you ran them down too low too often.
