My mother raised a severely nonverbal autistic boy for years when I was growing up. We really fell in love with him. His real parents thought he was demon possessed because they were superstitious, and so kept him locked up in basement and fed him through a slot.

So when we got him, he wasn't even potty trained, and could say nothing, couldn't even hold a fork.

By the time he left, he could say "I love you", "hug", "toy", "potty". And he used a fork and knew how to use the bathroom, though we had to clean him. They have so much love, can be so happy if you give them the right environment. Joshie would wear a helmet and punch himself, but we even got him to vastly reduce that behavior too. Man I miss him...

Honestly as a stim seeking autist, it can be a fucking blast.  Best bike ride of my life was zoobombing on mushrooms.

I've definitely said more than once, "This must be what it's like to be neurotypical."  I'm better physically coordinated, less dyspraxia symptoms.  Depending on how high I am I find it easier to pick and complete tasks.  It's like I'm actually in my head and body for once, really love the connected body experience.  At a certain level of high though it's just all serotonin and dopamine soup.  I couldn't define it and I won't spoil it by trying.

Oh, and I don't stim when I'm high, at least not physically.  Rarely I will vocally stim.

Just checked on my plates after a couple days.  Made some pasty plates the other day.

Upon checking them out I notice little black specs in pretty much all of them.  Didn’t notice when I pulled them from pc.

What yall think? All the spots are basically the same except for this one brown one too. 

Recipe was 2 g ME 2g agar 120 ml water PC for 45 min.

Very intriguing. Mr Piggy.  Thank you for letting me into your mind. That's actually pretty much the exact opposite of what I expected.

That is very sweet. My son is picking up some words here and there as well. He's got about 15 in his Arsenal that he's comfortable saying. The rest he just kind of says the first syllable or sound of what he's trying to say sometime. We've been working endlessly to get him potty trained. He will go in the toilet but he won't go on his own we have to take him.


This topic would be good for the pub. so I think I'll go post it over there.

I was reading up in this super fast moving thread and I stumbled upon the discussion about dedicated pots and buckets when I realized:
Y'all need an electric kettle!



It's probably just a culture thing (lots of tea drinkers in Europe) but they are super useful in our hobby. In fact, I wouldn't know how to get all my stuff done without it.

-when boiling grains
-when using the pc (yes I pour boiling water in the pc. Who can wait that long for it to heat up otherwise)
-when hydrating coir
-etc.

Nothing but water ever gets in it. 0 contam issues.

Apparently they do :smile:

Lmk if I'm wrong but it seems electric kettles are not as much a thing in the US as they are elsewhere.

We mag dump until the barrel turns orange and then stick it right in the cup of tea. Far from cost effective, but the bald eagles come from afar to watch, which is a real treat if you like bird watching.

Yeah that is pretty cool. It is fairly inconvenient if you want hot water from a crappy overused coffee maker sometimes you don't get good water from it. Microwave is quick and accessible but not always reliable.

I think in general we don't drink alot of hot tea. I drink iced tea all the time but when it comes to hot beverages I'd venture a guess that more people drink coffee than tea. Interestingly enough we do drink hot tea when we're sick.

I have one. I thoroughly enjoy it. It's like infrared induction or something and it boils water in 3 minutes. It heat to like five separate temperatures.
And it will also maintain a temperature for 2 hours.

This is really useful when I am making bulk substrate. I tend to just use that and fill it up a couple times boil it pour in my pot and then I literally have enough boiled water to make my bulk in  of 6 minutes..

I wish It was bigger though. But 1.7  liters isn't bad. You only have to fill it up twice to make a typical round of bulk  with 650 g of coir.

  I bought it for those reasons also so I could quickly sterilize water if I needed to without having to use the microwave.

I only use it for mushroom stuff though LOL. And I'm from Texas we drink sweet tea here in the south. Not  the same tea as europe.  We make it in big pots on the stove like 15 bags dunked  at a time steeping. And then drink nice and cold on our very hot days.


I do know a ton of people over here microwaving water though or putting it on the stove.


My mother lives with me and she makes European type of tea everyday. But she refuses to use my
Electric kettle. It's right next to the microwave and she still uses the microwave LOL

Considering my next set of shoeboxes the substrate will need 12L of water i don't think that's big enough.

Would there be enough gas exchange if a .2um sticker filter was stuck to the top and the bottom of a plastic Ball lid?

Would it effect steam going in and out of the jar during cool down with the lids tightened?
