Why do I hear this picture in my head and not the one posted by OP? I love McAdams.
Reminder, we are not talking about potato-ash
🜿

Me, a stoner: "Duuuuuude! I have hella pot ash! It's in my ash tray!"
Me with my swimming pool of ABV: "casual."
I've used potash within the last week! Potash is here already mwahahahaha
You have done a glorious deed.
Personally I did my part and consumed potash for breakfast, lunch, and dinner today. I'm going to grow very big and strong. Potash is forever 💪
I must be missing the context for this. Does Potash mean something more than Potassium or the process for isolating it?
There's not much context. It started with my friend showing me how he could speedrun zooming into a specific potash farm in China and then it grew into a series of shitposts
I grew up in a small town. Things were hard. We needed to make little jokes. I learned to make my car a little funny. I’m sorry if I sent the wrong message, like I was some sort of representative or something.
This is the dumbest thing I have heard all day and I love it. Thank you so much for keeping the internet weird.
Lol. Thanks for that. Making silly dumb little shitposts and seeing other people make them makes my day.
was honestly losing my mind at your posts but this context makes it so good
Haha, probably shoulda added some kind of context sooner. I highly recommend making a game of trying to find potash farms on Google Earth. There's one my friend found in the desert in China where they've got glass boats and boardwalks on the potash farm and made it into a national park. You can see it up close on street view. There's also some potash farms in Utah, new mexico, and Canada.
Potash is unrefined potassium.
For context, check out countrypunk’s posting history. In the last day, there’s been a lot of potash memes.
so you're saying it already did happen

I'm still going for it
You’re a brave soul!
Glorious!
Wtf is pot ash
Why is it a meme tho
Whys your mom a meme
it's not. that's just one dude with problems
🤷
Could be a better term for "Hash Browns"
Potato + Hash = Potash
Hash could be anything chopped up. Really should say Potato Hash Browns to be specific.
Could say Potash Browns or simply Potash
i dunno, i think dwarves use it for some esoteric farming ritual or something?

Pot ash? Nah, that's Grandma.
I survived the nuclear apocalypse - thanks to potash!
I've been to a couple potash mines. Those guys were pretty cool.
Ooh, do elaborate. I'm curious what they look like in person.
They look like any other mine, really. Only ever been inside the mine once but it was pretty neat. Most of the actual mining is done by machines that are controlled remotely. The big chunks of the pure shit looks like a pinkish orange quartz rock. Most of what they get isn't as pure though and they need to refine it with crushers and the like.
They got warehouses where they keep the raw ore before it's processed. It honestly just looks like sparkly dirt at this stage. After they process it they get a few different products out of it and crush it into different consistencies like fine grain or granular. They have these domes that they store them in that have a feeder at the bottom to slowly trickle out onto conveyors for transport or more refining. Pretty much each dome has a different product too with different grains and uses. Most of it by this point looks like the cinnamon crystals on Cinnamon Toast Crunch. That's the good shit right there where it's all potash with very little impurities.
They get a lot of different kinds of salt out of it and they keep most of that outside. Some of that stuff is super white and fine. It has the consistency of sand or snow (or even cocaine) and looks the part too. I mean, it's basically just salt at this point (not the kind you wanna eat) and they sell it off depending on its use. I don't think it's the same kinda stuff they'd send off to the evaporation pools but I could be mistaken. Last time I was there they had a giant pile outside that was about the size of a grocery store of that white salt. And one of the salt piles that's a byproduct is road salt. Not as pure and not very expensive, but it's just a by product so they refine that shit to sell it off.
That is very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
Not with that attitude.
Agreed. Potash is forever.
Potash is love, potash is life.
stop trying to force your shitty meme, you absolute sperglord
I'm just trying to make content that I find funny and share it on the net. It's not hurting anyone in doing this. If you don't like it then just block my account so it doesn't show up on your feed. There's no need to be rude and throw insults over a shitpost.
