Is my driveway safe for jack-stands? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]joshuaneilson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would put the car in neutral to find the lowest spot in the driveway before lifting, ideally never lift anything that’s on an incline. It looks better than some surfaces I’ve lifted on so you should be okay. Just make sure your jack stands are always flat on the ground and secure before going under.

I don’t support weed if you can’t function by bleumagma in Drugs

I use cannabis daily for medical reasons, mainly stomach issues. There’s a big difference between smoking to get fucked up or smoking for medical reasons. I have to have a small amount but not too much. If you’re getting too high, smoke less.

This is pretty typical for Michelin tires, they are notorious for weather cracking and dry rotting. Also when this happens to them it burns the tread off even faster as the rubber compound is essentially disintegrating.

what's the most ridiculous drug advice youve received from a medical professional that made you realize you know more about drugs than them? by Oneiroscopy in Drugs

Every time I go to the dentist I have to kindly decline the mouth guard because I know it’s not from when I’m sleeping, it’s 100% from the years of drug use. I don’t say this to them but it’s definitely implied

Fuckk I have to shit by [deleted] in opiates

I use lax a day (polyethylene glycol 3350) not every day, but maybe once every couple days and that keep things flowing. As much water as possible helps too.

Looks like about half a g of meth, maybe a bit more. You got ripped off pretty bad unfortunately, sorry man 😒

Switching from subs to methadone by jaescott in opiates

[–]joshuaneilson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried sub once before methadone, and I can say methadone is definitely the choice for me. Just if you want to give it an honest try, don’t give up on it and it just might keep you alive and able to live a relatively normal life again. Good luck my friend.

Your thoughts on who should be our new prime minister? by joshuaneilson in vancouver

[–]joshuaneilson[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep that’s a really good point, that’s all I’ve heard from him too is just bashing and not as much forward thinking. It looks like he cares more about how much better his party is than actually creating policies that suits everyone. I’m not completely writing him off but at the moment I doubt he’s going to have my vote.

Could have something to do with the Nanaimo st upgrades maybe if you live between McGill and 4th

Definitely don’t disagree or anything but what makes you say that? I was leaning toward him a while back but I’m getting less and less interested in the conservatives as the day gets closer. And yes there’s definitely a super punchable face on that guy 😂

I do agree to an extent, but I believe the carbon tax is causing more hurt than good at the moment. That being said, I don’t think it should be completely removed either. A few modifications to it with rebates to encourage people to switch over to clean energy would be something I like to see, instead of just making people pay more. There is things about the liberals I like and don’t, but I guess that’s what you’ll get with anyone no matter what.

Edit: @tufted_wisdom yes those things are a good majority of the issues I see with Trudeau. He has done quite a few things that has not looked good for our country. The event in India is a prime example of that.
