Freakish Human Host syndrome

Oceans, and I’m guessing huge lakes too, definitely have their own scents. Very cool!

Ozonium! ROFLMAO

My favorite smell other than the good herb is honeysuckle, followed closely by a good thundering gully washer.

Funny, our favorite smell is the same! HA! Florally speaking, for me it’s night-blooming jasmine, but there’s nothing like a serious downpour/thunder & lightning storm. It’s so much more than simply a scent. For me it’s kind of like the difference between drinking water and drinking fresh tree sap. They look exactly alike in every way, smell the same (at least to my nose), but there is so much more there, bust it’s subtle.

And the tomato stem smell my mother had, soaking her feet, shelling peas in the evening, wood heat, in the house I grew up in.

I picked the parts to paint that picture. I think I can do that with scents. I think that’s why I can and did cook, and why maybe I can do this too. I want to do this candle shit too maybe lol

I think having an “exaggerated” sense of taste and smell often go together. Mrs. mota is a super taster, at least by our testing standard, with a very acute sense of smell. We don’t have an analogous test for smell, but if there is such a thing as a super smeller, I’m sure she’d qualify. My guess is you are to. Her vision is pretty weak. She has to wear glasses virtually all of the time.

I, on the other hand, am often super smelly, but that’s a whole 'nother thing!

Olfactory senses are closely linked to memory. A picture can remind you of a place, but a smell can take you there. I don’t know how that works but that’s what an idyllic chandler wants to achieve

Also, 80 percent of your “tastebuds” are in your nose.

Your tongue tastes sweet salty sour etc, but without your nose, you can’t tell a pear from an apple from a strawberry. You’d just taste sweet, sour, different texture…

I know a guy that lost his sense of smell/taste in a motorcycle accident. His taste is back, but he can’t smell. Food is a weird world for him now, made of textures and basic flavor

Nice chicken coop! You get fresh eggs almost free while I’m paying $10 for pasture raised organic. Lucky!

A couple chickens, a couple ducks, eggs out the wazoo. We give alot to family nearby and give some to neighbors, and my wife has sold a couple dozen at clearance sale prices, plus shitloads (hah) of compost, so they’re more than free.

Alot of people request the duck eggs, I guess that’s a hotter commodity

Got a little situation in the basement w water running all over and through my breakers…

Power company is “on their way”

They must’ve messed up the install on my stupid new smart meter so I killed the power and duct taped a trash bag over it lol

Plants are chilling by various windows…

Seriously screw this rain its depressing AF. Man I sure hope the flooding wasn’t too bad & they got you fixed up. Keep us updated man, best wishes for a good outcome :+1:

What kind of smart meter causes a flood?

A dumb one, lol

Still waiting ha

They put in these smart meters to fortify some power consumption database to better serve you.

In my case, they ripped a perfectly good hard-core one that worked for decades and jammed in a better one, with a bigger box that will not close because it doesn’t fit. Instead of fucking doing a proper installation, on an “upgrade” I don’t want, some shit bag left a hole in the basement that’s a serious hazard.

Dominion sucks.

Fml I was at work of course when they did it.
