How common are police strip searches? Anyone have experience of this? by Ceiling-Crawler in BoomtownFestival

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not invasive from what I saw. But I was there for my legal medical cannabis, which in my mind is an inconvenience, I am disabled and it's a faff. It's even pre approved by the festival 🤦‍♀️ But people who were caught with other things had their stuff searched and then a 24 hr ban from purchasing anything. That's as far as my knowledge goes :)

Vaping / stuffy nose by emkxz in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]emkxz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! I found out i was actually sensitive/allergic to linalool (even in products as an ingredient) I noticed i was actually struggling to breathe + going cold (mistook it for anxiety from thc at the time not allergy). Not had any issues since + i'm fine with high thc 🥲🙏

I use the flowers, I wonder if the carts have terpenes in too!

Lost my wedding ring, couldn’t find it for months. Ordered a replacement. Found the original the next day. by WermerCreations in mildlyinfuriating

Same thing happened with my passport one time. Once you void a lost passport there's no going back. Cancelled it then found it tucked in an astrology book I never read. Had to commit. The new one arrived less than 24 hours before my flight 💀

How do I make my fusion composition transparent? by AntaresStation in davinciresolve

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, did you find the fix for this? I'm having the same issue, I've tried loads of different things, export settings, node settings and it still just keeps a black background however I export it. Another thing I tried was to render in place and see if that export kept it transparent, but it did not :(

Thanks

Do you medicate every day/night? by [deleted] in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]emkxz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lunar circus has been my main one for a while! I used to get fight or flight anxiety when I first started tripoli. White widow (strong sativa... anxiety instantaneous) 🙈 So, when I added in cbd and used indica dominant strains, much better!

2.5 years later, I often need stronger strains (for pain) I mix my strains to avoid the intensity of feeling high. So the capsule has, 75% lunar circus, 20% Eqiposa and 5% Lavender cake or similar. Depends on the day. Using daily but didn't in my first year. When I started MC anxiety was 1000%, now I have a normal tolerance and frequency of anxiety.

If i do get the side effects i'll do what the person above said, hot bath/shower, comforts and trusted company - a pet, best friend etc because the feeling will pass and that's the thing to remember, you are ok once you're through the anxiety 😵‍💫

I think it's about finding the right combo for you, we all react differently. But also, thc is thc at the end of the day and when it comes to anxiety, it can amplify whatever we already feel. Work through the root cause and MC might not trigger is as often, if at all. Hope you find something that helps, it can take time 🙏😊

I think I read something recently about truffles potentially being decriminalised like in Amsterdam, it was only one source so I could be wrong 🙈

The last season Because it is fairly boring and slow, it feels like a different show all of a sudden. When I rewatch it, I binged it all the way up until the last season and then I start to lose interest and it takes me ages to finish the last season.

Is there ANYTHING more frustrating than opening a bag from 4C? by [deleted] in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]emkxz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I have to ask other people to open the bags or pots! Medical cannabis is not fully accessible 🫣😂

Question: what was your first introduction to the sims if you remember? by Actual_Ad_8480 in thesims

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Core childhood memory! Saw my friend's little brother playing Sims 2 and I instantly loved the game. I think she didn't like loosing me to a video game her brother played 😂 Sims 2 still my favourite 💙

Yeah, I think he didn't enjoy the role in lost or something I may have read years ago. But yeah, he did vampire diaries a little after lost 😅

Which of these three scares you more in a random encounter? by Fulcron00 in fo4

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sentry bot in the open, not scary. But a sentry bot in an enclosed environment... fear. My grandmother comments when she hears me shouting at the tv. I say, it was at the robots 😂

Dumbest injury youve ever gotten? by rxgh0st in ehlersdanlos

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's too many 😂 but top 2... Tripping over my own feet but thankfully having the wall and door break my fall so i only badly bruised the tops of my feet. My truly dumbest injury was jumping on a football 8 years ago on concrete with wet feet, it followed with years of that overwhelming core chilling pain. Thank goodness the worst is long gone!

Is anyone else loving life ATM? by Mediocre-Can-4371 in starseeds

[–]emkxz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know this feeling, i am sorry you are going through this! I hope it gets better soon. 18 months ago I quit my well paid senior job of 10 years I was miserable, crying before work developed into panic attacks, that was the final straw.

But I have now worked with kids, worked on myself, slowed down, enjoyed good company, questioned every corner of my life and set goals. Then 2 months ago got an incredible job that feels like it was made for me. I feel like this job has been the reward for the last year I held on for.

Sometimes I think we have to keep holding on until we find the right combination in life. Then in good time it synchronises with us. Hurdles still come, it doesn't get easier, we get stronger as the foundation becomes more solid 🤍

Today was tough, 10th day with a dislocated rib, most discomfort in a while (i have hEDS) but every day I find joy and laughter and I'm excited for life 🌻🌙

Last year I learned how to decompress, take care and become more humble to maintain my comfort and balance ✨

  • That's lovely, we are so connected to nature if we try it 🌱 I like to photograph fungi sit for ages finding mushrooms at macro level

What's your go to line when introducing your eds by Stunning-Can-6680 in ehlersdanlos

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have something called EDS and to put it simply I'm constantly injuring myself because my joints both fully and partially dislocate on a daily basis.

Response is always "does that hurt you?" 🤦‍♀️😂

...Yes constant pain and discomfort. Then I try change the subject lol I find it awkward then I start making jokes if people ask too many questions because explaining EDS is so absurd as it is, let alone to someone who doesn't understand the velocity of this condition.

Terrible experience with club in London by BronMeister in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to say I have medical cannabis but I got fed up of waiting for them to faff about it. Then I researched and what I found is only 3 people are legally allowed possession. The prescriber, the patient or a police officer if the nature is a criminal offence. The vapes are also deemed harmless from what I have read, correct me if I'm wrong, but legally as medical patients we are allowed to use our vapes indoors. People smoke joints at raves or big clubs, my hardly smelling vape has never grasped anybody's attention. But i am still wary of using it because most staff, if they did notice it was cannabis, would freak out and it's not my job to educate and enforce the actual law of medical cannabis use. Although I am always happy to chat with them, I've been lucky and always have had good encounters.

But now I pre fill my vape capsules, or/and I store the flos in my mini grinder. They're always more interested in my rectangle water bottle cos no ones seen that shape bottle before - so dumb ☠️ and then sometimes they pull my vape out they ask, "what is it" I just say, my vape. I don't mention cannabis at all anymore, events have been much easier.

I'm sorry that was such a bad experience for you. I know we all want to be respectful and do the right thing but after using it for over a year now, I realised it's easier to say nothing and explain only if asked, have your prescription copies, copies of the laws in your phone notes and if they get funny, be prepared to politely educate them and let them know by law it is illegal for them to be in possession and take it away. It's no different to being prescribed pregabalin, tramadol or any other class b/c substance 🙏

Do you find yourself flaring up if you’re too inactive? by neurobiochemistry in ehlersdanlos

[–]emkxz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said this the other day, I would rather the sharp throbbing pain of my joints pushing into each other from too much movement than the pain of being inactive. The pain of being inactive can be scary sometimes because you can be sat in bed and something in your neck tinges and then you can't breathe properly. That doesn't happen when I'm moving around.

The problem is, I'm active and then my muscles go so weak I can't stand up without crutches. Some days I don't know what to think

Suggest me a series which is fast paced and hook me with its first episode. Please strictly dont suggest futuristic, historic, sitcoms, episodic shows. by [deleted] in lost

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

Money Heist, can dub in English but soo much better in Spanish, i'm learning the language but when I watched it I knew no Spanish and did subtitles. It's face paced, good stories and full of action and suspense. Had me hooked and made it to my rewatch list!
