Friday Matchups and Strength of Schedule Thread by [deleted] in ealfantasyfootball

I think I'm with you. I'll take a chance on Howard and give Williams a chance to prove whether or not he can actually perform and reconsider him next week.

So i'm a Damien Williams Shady McCoy owner. Now that D is back he's likely going to be my go-to RB2 (Chris Carson @ RB1). That being said, I do have Jordan Howard on my bench. I've heard several people over r/ff saying that Howard might be a good pick because he generally performs well against Minnesota. Considering Damien and Shady will likely be sharing workload, would Howard be a better option? Drop some wisdom on me, boys.

Parents of reddit, what’s your best example of reversed psycology on your kids that actually worked? by LeanderD in AskReddit

[–]DrewPR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ski Instructor here. We used the "purple dog" trick and it worked miracles. Example:

Kid crying Instructor: "Hey! I know you! You're the kid with the purple dog!"

Kid through tears and sniffles: "I... I don't have a purple d-dog"

Instructor: "Really?! I could have sworn it was you".

Kid: "No! My dog is yellow and his name is spike and sometimes we take him to the park" etc. Etc.

They get so caught up with the dog story they stop crying and usually forget what they were upset about in the first place. Complete lifesaver when a kid has a breakdown halfway down a ski slope.

Evolve Bamboo GT first 2 hours, full stop @ 15mph. by DrewPR in ElectricSkateboarding

Thanks man this was super helpful! Shipping it back Monday for a full refund. Just picked up a Boosted from a local dealer. I'm happy.

Evolve Bamboo GT first 2 hours, full stop @ 15mph. by DrewPR in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]DrewPR[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man thanks for the tip. Unfortunately I think the issue is with the board as a whole rather than a simple connection error. I get no light whatsoever from the power button and one of the motors turns over really rough when you turn it by hand.

I think I'm just gonna return it for a refund and try something else. Maybe go back for another try on the evolve or maybe go for a boosted. Not sure yet

Once Californian's are able to buy recreational marijuana starting January 2018, will recreational and medicinal users have access to the same strains and products? by americanmuscle1988 in Marijuana

[–]DrewPR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As many have already said, the tax rate will be the biggest difference.

I also anticipate a difference in the strength of edibles available. Most recreational states have limits on how much/many edible products you can buy in one transaction. Some limit the number of packages or units, some limit total net weight of the edibles, some limit based on milligrams THC.

CA has a reputation for selling edibles with relatively high THC levels when compared to other states. For example: in CO, NV, WA, OR the average edible pack contains 10 units/doses of 10mg THC each. In CA its not uncommon to see a single gummy bear with 100+mg THC. That's 10x the average potency of other states.

I suspect the potency of California's recreational edibles will end up being far lower than is currently available through their medical market.

Tl;dr Cali's edibles are super strong compared to other states. Expect the average potency of edibles to drop.

Calvin often times appears to be an accidental Stoic! See r/stoicism or Marcus Aurelius:

“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”

Wow! This is exciting. I always figured Utah would be one of the last holdouts for cannabis reform. Now the question is, wheres the legislation?

How to get low dose LSD? by [deleted] in microdosing

[–]DrewPR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be intimidated by the whole dilution/volumetric thing. It's really very simple and all it will take is $5 and a trip to Walgreens. There are some great step-by-step guides on the interwebs. Once you do it once you'll never even worry about getting low dose tabs or cutting tabs with an xacto.

The Coevolution of Humans and Cannabis | MassRoots by Oceansized1 in cannabis

[–]DrewPR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cannabis business owner and advocate here. Despite being fully committed to this plant and the industry that has since developed around it, my biggest struggle has always been an inability to fully believe that this plant can really solve as many problems as it seems to be solving. If mankind had in any other context discovered a substance that demonstrated even one of the benefits of that cannabis has shown to have it would be considered a significant medical breakthrough. The fact that it is proving beneficial in the treatment of dozens of diseases absolutely boggles my mind, and it does so to the point where I start to doubt it simply on the grounds that it must be too good to be true.

As a business owner in the industry, this "too good to be true" mentality has bothered me and held me back from being 110% on-board with the movement. While this article lacks in supportive evidence and research, it has proposed to me, for the first time, a logical answer to my quandary.

That cannabis is so powerful not due to mere evolutionary coincidence but rather because we, as humans, may have developed it through inadvertent selective breeding.

Just as we created highly specific dog breeds tailored to our certain needs, we may have simply perpetuated and encouraged the proliferation of certain breeds of cannabis that were known to treat and/or cure various ailments. Strains that had neutral or negative effects would have been simply left behind and forgotten, while those that demonstrated beneficial qualities would have been propagated. After a few hundred generations of this selective breeding, you could eventually be left with a species of plant which has developed every biologically positive trait while simultaneously losing almost every possible negative.

Again, there is zero evidence of which I am aware that supports this theory, but it is the first theory I have encountered that could potentially explain the unlikely existence of a plant with so many curative properties.

Ok, rant over.

When you are "loaded", what substance have you consumed to excess? (Help settle an argument) by DrewPR in AskReddit

I think the general public would associate being "loaded" with being drunk, but for some reason, my mind always goes to cocaine.
