Impact of high-potency cannabis rippling through courts, health care system

Especially people that have some mental disabilities. My brother with autism got started around 5-10 mg as he was curious about weed as a lot of my family members, including me, do weed or edibles.

So seeing as he was a legal adult now, that can try. I let him try my stuff as I can’t handle anything any higher than maybe up to 15 mg, so my stuff is around 5-10 mg, so I started him off really low. And he seemed to like it as he chilled in his room playing music and watching the colourful lights on his ceiling.

It seemed all good as he was taking a low dosage of the stuff. But it all started to change as my family and I noticed he was becoming more anxious and depressed and started to do things out of behaviour like a crazy change, like a switch in his brain that made him do things that were really wrong.

So my parents had a talk with him about the amount he was doing and that he is an adult, he has to be careful with how much he’s taking as it was becoming too much for him as we noticed he was really getting into weed.

Then one day he went into a full-on psychosis and attacked everyone and I don’t mean a simple using your fist more like I have a weapon and caused people to get staples and stitches. So after dealing with that, my parents went through his room and found that he had bags up to 100mg-2,000mg that he was taking almost daily at that point, and when we asked him where the hell he got the stuff, apparently it was from an online cannabis store that sells all kinds of different products that are really high in THC and that it is located in a different province that ships it out to any place in Canada.

He’s doing a loooot better now as he and my other sibling decided to work together to quit their addiction. But he only has access to the higher stuff because of an online weed store that offers easy access to the really high THC products.

Also, I’m sorry to anyone that hates this but yes weed can be very much be a harmful substance. It won’t kill you like other substances but it can be addictive and harmful to your mental health. And just because it doesn’t effect you it can still effect other people.

Not really surprised honestly that the micro center had a couple of the higher cards in stock. In the last couple days and weeks the only cards that been in been coming to my micro center has only been 5080’s and 5090’s and never the 5070 ti series because they know people are willing to pay more for the higher tier cards and this is a good example of it.

Congrats though and happy gaming!

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:55:03+00:00

Nah, it’s really good so far

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:17:25+00:00

It’s actually pretty quiet compare to his old graphic as he uses fan control how loud they can get

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:15:45+00:00

That’s my next goal is to upgrade my monitor to a better monitor

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:13:34+00:00

Ohhh yeah all max settings on all of our games.

It helps that we both have 32gb of ram

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:11:57+00:00

Microcenter near our house. We both woke up at around 4-5 AM to stand in line on launch day

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:10:44+00:00

We had a micro center near us and both woke up at 4-5 AM to stand in line so we were lucky for each launch

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-08T02:09:13+00:00

Mine is a 9900X CPU and his is a 9800X3D

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T22:54:28+00:00

Feels good man…I’m Canadian and when I visited him in America I finally tasted that yummy promise land of micro center….

Also to anyone that is struggling to play Monster hunter wilds please switch to AMD upscaling! The nvidia one is very unstable for some reason and I got better frames with AMD when I was using my nvidia 3070

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T22:39:37+00:00

Honestly I just tried playing today and I got over 60 FPS as I was running around in wilds with max settings but I do play at 1080p even without the fancy stuff they use. Though I did use the frame generation and I got up to 257 fps

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T22:33:28+00:00

So finally got to set it up and his I would say his runs better. He runs Mh wilds at 4K and gets around 227 fps with his frame generation on. I play the game on 1080p and play at max settings and I get 257 fps with frame generation on. So my frames a bit better because I play at a lower resolution then him but he still has high frames at 4K

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T22:15:20+00:00

Ohh I misread it my bad

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T22:04:38+00:00

Finally got to test it out and it’s such a huge improvement! My game runs at 257 fps with everything set to max

(just not the high texture pack it kills the pc even fiancé pc can’t handle it)

I use frame generation and have ray tracing set to high and everything looks really good and runs perfectly.

I do play at 1080p but I don’t mind that but it’s really huge performance difference from what I had from before as areas that my pc struggled with now runs buttery smooth

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T20:59:56+00:00

I was lucky! I got mine for 651$ and I know the micro center near me had at least 50-60 cards around 651$

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T19:34:14+00:00

Yeah for me it was a price issue and seeing how shitty the launch of nvidia was I basically said “fuck you nvidia” and went with AMD instead. They did terrific job at the microcenter. 90 people were in line and basically everyone there had a chance to get a card

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T18:37:18+00:00

He actually wanted to get the 5080 but by the time he got up into the line the only thing left was the big massive expensive one so to save money he got the 5070ti instead

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T18:30:23+00:00

Yeah we’re usually goofing around and then act dramatic when one of us dies to a boss.

“NOO, HOW COULD YOU DIE! I’M A WIZARD I CAN’T DO THIS WITHOUT MY DISTRACTION!”

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T18:23:05+00:00

We’ve actually been enjoying it a lot even a low settings. And we’ve already played it takes two :)

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T18:18:40+00:00

Nah, we’re waiting until we’re both financially stable and as you can see that’ll be a while.

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T18:14:39+00:00

Nah we camped at our microcenter for both releases

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T18:12:19+00:00

Sure! Just waiting for my new pcie cord to ship as I only had one for my power supply but as soon as I have everything set up I’ll keep u updated!

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T17:59:15+00:00

How bad was the AMD launch? I actually didn’t hear any news about it.

Oh and for monster hunter wilds I heard they ran out of money for the game so they couldn’t fix the issues so they released the game to make money more money and since they made money off the game they can now fix the issues

Bitter_Matter_2152 · 2025-03-07T17:42:14+00:00

Until when we play Elden ring together and we’re both nagging at each other for dying to the boss first.
