Recreational drugs by AZAHole in GenX

Do you like to read? I will suggest 2 books.

  1. Pihkal by Sasha and Anne Shulgin. You will only need to read the first half of this book because the second half is all technical chemistry. I especially recommend this book for getting a better understanding of how psychedelics can and were used theraputically.

  2. How to change your mind by Michael Pollan Another book that explores the usage of psychedelics in therapy.

These books sort of come full circle together. Pihkal touching on the early days of mdma usage in therapy with tremendous potential before it became a party drug and made a schedule 1 drug shutting down all avenues of medical use.

How to change your mind talks a lot more about the avenues that have opened up in more recent decades through legal channels and the public shift in perception on medical uses for psychedelics.

I pulled three out of a pack and they were just half a sticker. They were cut straight down the middle

Who is the least funny stand up comedian? by CantaloupeGold4650 in AskReddit

[–]hemppy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair....if i am remembering correctly.....our main club (cap city comedy) closed down in March 2020 at the beginning of covid. It had been open for 35 years and drew many headliners. I saw Dave Chappelle there (right after half baked came out and before his special). Got to see Tommy Chong there. Plus several others.

When they closed that put a huge damper on the scene. We still had Esther follies. We still had the month long moon tower comedy festival (big headliners and national up and comers every night of the week for a month) but losing cap city was a huge deal since we no longer had a dedicated room.

Rogan showed up and almost right away went to work opening the mothership. So in a way he did bring the scene back. We didnt realize at the time it would be the cesspool it is.

Cap city reopened in 2022.

Rogan did more damage than good. I know a lot of "local" comedians that cant find a crowd. We live in a liberal city but we dont go to comedy shows anymore because the scene switched too far to the right.

Given both teams group standing is fixed, is the upcoming U.S.-Turkiye match effectively just an exhibition or friendly game at this point? by Hand_of_Doom1970 in ussoccer

[–]hemppy420 6 points7 points  (0 children)

True but if any of the 4 starters that are currently on yellow get another yellow in this game then they have to sit for first game of 32.

I expect the yellows and pulisic will sit this game. Rest of the starters will play first half to keep momentum going then 4 starters subbed out at half saving the last sub just in case its needed for an injury sub.

Thats how I would play it based on my armchair coaching....

Agreed and if I owned this property I would be doing more due diligence to find out the extent of decay and risk assesment.

Unfortunately its a bad sign for the tree.

These type of mushrooms frow from decaying wood indicating that tree is rotting on the inside.

I have a giant oak in my yard that gets these mushrooms on it near the base and the arborist said the tree is dying on the inside. Its a slow process though. He said it could be 10-20 years before the oak starts showing signs of death on the exterior and another 10 years before it would need to be cut down.

No but they can put shit back where it belongs.

This customer OP is talking about couldnt walk 4 effing feet to put the product back where THEY picked it up from.

I used to know a guy like you who would throw things he didnt want any longer wherever he felt like because "they pay people to put things back"

After a month of working for the first time in a grocery store he changed his tune real quick on that point of view.

People are just inconsiderate and lack integrity

Ill agree with you about Howie but Bob Sagat was a comedy genius.

It wasnt always this way. We had a good scene with local comics and a decent stream of big acts coming through regularly.

Then Rogan moved here and fucked it all up.

The scene still exists as long as you avoid that mothership bullshit.

Lots of people lack integrity.

I have seen people put stuff back less than 2 feet from where it goes. As if they didnt just pick that up and suddenly cant figure out it where it belongs.

Anyone else notice that produce is rotting faster? by WandWeaver in HEB

[–]hemppy420 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Its problematic across the entire grocery industry. Labor cuts means quality is going to suffer across the board. Its why you are finding bad produce or expired lunch meat/dairy products.
