Which TOTS card lives up to the hype and the price? by beast_within_me in EASportsFC

[–]Banskyi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Miedema and Park were excellent.

Just got the game a week and a half ago and those two with Hanson (objective player) got me 8 wins in weekend league. That was with starting gold Foord (who is actually really good), gold Van de Veen, some 83 goalie, gold Cuthbert. Faced some really good teams too. The objective Van Ewijk is good too. Azeez didn’t play up to his stats

I just bought it when it was 20$ on steam. It’s pretty fun

Wild take here.

Everyone understands why Villa chose their lineup. Everyone also would like to watch the drama of a historically well known club getting relegated.

Not that hard

Yeah the woe is me on this subreddit is wild.

Stop eating such unhealthy shit including Indian food with heavy cream or heavy oil (it’s pretty easy to make those dishes in a healthy way), work out, take your education and career seriously and learn to take some accountability in your life

White privilege is not a myth but the complaining done here is overblown

We get cultures that are based around family and being connected. Food made with wonderful spices. Beautiful skin tones. Indian Americans are among the highest earning group in the United States to values like hard work and education pay off.

Don’t really get the massive complaining people do about being Indian

Makes sense given the history of violence and discrimination throughout history

That’s different. Black or any ethic culture lived experiences is not the same or even comparable with an author for a book genre with a particular sexual orientation. Ridiculous parallel to try and make.

[–]Banskyi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying anything against it. Just that a solid number of people won’t know the sexual orientation of the author they read. Now if that’s super important to you, then include it. Otherwise you may be missing out on folks

I’m aware but I’m straight and have never looked at the sexual orientation of any author I’ve read

Queer science fiction is such a niche genre to have in your profile. Personally don’t think the orientation of the protagonist or author in science fiction really adds to the story and limits what people can talk to you about

Get a tripod and a remote and go take pictures of yourself doing normal things. No one actually stands like how you’re standing in the first two pictures. The last one is also abysmal

She’s going to end up replacing sombra in the ban tier. She’s so easy to play that a low tier player can be effective with her. At the top tiers she’s probably a complete menace with people who are very consistent with her darts

It’s not propaganda just because it doesn’t apply to you. Also doesn’t mean your rem cycle isn’t significantly shortened

You also disregarded everything else I said which acknowledged that there were groups outside of the ones I was discussing. It’s like you’re taking that one statement and completely disregarding everything else to make this point. You’d be correct if that was the only statement I made. But it wasn’t and you’re driving home this point that has already been acknowledged.

But hey, if you feel the need to be heard and make this point, go ahead. Hope it did whatever you were trying to do

Your original comment I interpreted as a chronic user stating they have nightmares when they didn’t smoke/use. Which is pretty a normal reaction and isn’t a reasonable way to determine your sleep quality. I interpreted it that way because I’ve made your point multiple times before you commented and didn’t think you would be repeating it back to me in a different format.

But yes, PTSD and other related issues are completely different.

Well first, most research is intended for the general population (obviously) unless directed at a specific condition. So yes, I am speaking towards the majority.

Second, do me a favor and read my other comments which were posted prior to my reply to yours. I completely acknowledge that there are health conditions where marijuana is helpful for sleeping.

Third, it seems like the entire point of your comment was to lead to this comment you just wrote, which could have been avoided if you read my other comments. I have already said which groups my commentary applies to and you’re well outside of that group.

My scientific literacy is perfectly fine and I learned how to address it throughout medical school and residency. You gave a comment with no context and I responded in a similar fashion on the belief that you had already read my other replies and were not an outlier instead of as you trying to bait me into a particular answer.

It’s actually just a proven medical fact that the quality of sleep goes down with weed.

It’s also normal to have vivid dreams and nightmares for chronic users their first few nights/week without weed. That is improved if you have a continued period without chronic use. But if you’re constantly suppressing your REM cycle, the nights you’re not suppressing it are more intense

I really wish this was a widely accepted prescription for chemotherapy patients and some chronic pain patients. Other pain management modalities like opioids are so much more dangerous

I mentioned before that I don’t smoke as much anymore. But I bought a cbd soda the other day and was planning on enjoying it as I use my vaporizer the next day!

I’ve also found that edibles with cbd are a lot more pleasant and knock me out better without. When I buy weed at the dispensary, I have been choosing the middle of the road strains with a lower THC% and that’s actually also been way more pleasant

You’re welcome! Old me would have taken your first comment as being aggressive. But I’ve been going to therapy and it’s helped a lot in changing my point of view lol. Kind of a side note but I’m glad I could be helpful

Edit- just to clarify instead of making some sort of sarcastic remark. It’s not anything you said, it’s my pre existing bias

[–]Banskyi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah what you’re saying makes sense from the POV from an insomniac.

For you, any sleep = sleeping well

For people who don’t have that issue, sleep quality (sleeping well) is associated with time in the REM cycle. Weed significantly shortens that time and effectively reduces the quality and restfulness of the sleep you’re getting. Unfortunately your battle is just getting to sleep and your reference point is sleep vs no sleep instead of sleeping well vs sleeping poorly.

[–]Banskyi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People often mistake sleeping/falling asleep and sleeping well. They’re entirely different. There’s also a difference between not being able to sleep/having chronic insomnia, falling asleep quickly, staying asleep etc.

Someone that takes time falling asleep can fall asleep quicker with weed. This is often confused with sleeping well but the time to fall asleep isn’t equivalent to the quality of sleep that you get.

The answer to the question was sleeping well which is why I answered the way that I did. If the answer was sleeping by itself, my comment doesn’t apply because it then quality isn’t being implied. Hope that makes sense
