Its been awhile since I’ve lived in the city, and even longer since I’ve visited these folks’ place, but if you’re in the Portland, OR area Free Geek is definitely worth checking out!

Oh damn. Was coolroms part of that too? I’ve used emuparadise and coolroms a bunch over the years. Kinda makes me want to stock up just in case
I’m OOTL, which ROM sites got shut down?

What the actual fuck…
The size of your flower room, as well as the amount of, and size of, your carbon filters and fans would be relevant info.
Carbon filters do have a lifespan. And their lifespan is also affected by the overall humidity in your room while they’re running. (Higher humidity reduces it…)

I feel like you’ll probably really enjoy Charlie Parr as well, if you don’t already know him
I really enjoyed that, thank you
It really seems like my grocery store (a Kroger brand) has been doing this for a bit now.
Prices on certain things vary wildly depending on the time of the month or the day of the week. Plus, with their bullshit, incessant push for everyone to use their app and online ordering, it seems like this will be much more common moving forward.

1·9 months agoSometimes when the news, or life or whatever, gets me down, I come back to this song. And I remember that a better world is possible, so long as we all try.
I hope this song sparks a lil something in you, the same as it does me

If you want to cry tears of pain and rage, listen to Dajah’s statement (one of the survivors) at the trial of the shooter. It’s…heavy, you’ve been warned.

Oregonian here. There’s currently over 100 fires burning across our state. 5 of them currently considered mega-fires.
Our state-level firefighters, as well as the federal-level are seriously, seriously underpaid. If you’re the letter-to-politician-writing type, please help advocate for better pay and benefits for our firefighters
