SWIM has a jar full of old soup from all of the extractions. SWIM doesn't want to just throw it in the regular garbage but he is nervous about being questioned at any kind of waste disposal sites. Should he be? "Yeah, but he's a pederass Dude."

I pour mine down the sink. Sodium hydroxide is used as drain cleaner/unclogger. Hey who the heck is SWIM? olympus mon wrote:You need to hit it with intention to get where you want to be!

Make sure to completely evaporate off all hydrocarbon solvents before putting the remaining lye/plant solution down the drain (I use the toilet rather than the sink).

Good to know, now I don't have to bury my old jars in the yard anymore.

Would I have to worry about turning my sink/tub/toilet purple? "Yeah, but he's a pederass Dude."

Don't worry  I used to boil the tea for a while to evaporate off organic solvents (e.g. naphtha). This is dangerous and should be done outside or in extremely well ventilated area. Boiling bases is dangerous in itself. So what I do now is to first neutralize the basic soup with HCl, it thickens and might have to be diluted, then I boil it and then let cool down and finally flush. Make sure to run some tap water for a while to clean up pipes. It also helps to dilute the stuff. If you use sodium or potassium hydroxide, these are of least concern and easily to dealt with - it is used as drain cleaner as others said. After neutralization with HCl, NaOH turns into mere table salt.

Think about 1000 years from now when archeologists dig up your yard which will then be a desert or old forest, and they find the remnants. Will they laugh at how primitive our methods of extraction were? Living in an age of glass and stainless when lasers and plasmas are used? Or maybe we will be able to extract telepathically? “You think that’s air you’re breathing?” -Morpheus

The metaphysical comfort--with which, I am suggesting even now, every true tragedy leaves us--that life is at the bottom of things, despite all the changes of appearances, indestructibly powerful and pleasurable--this comfort appears in incarnate clarity in the chorus of the satyrs, a chorus of natural beings who live ineradicably, as it were, behind all civilization and remain eternally the same, despite the changes of generations and of the history of nations.

Ontology has it backwards. “This ‘saying to the Other’ — this relationship with the Other as interlocutor, this relation with an existent — precedes all ontology; it is the ultimate relation in Being”
