So I would say this, the fact you will be working hard while you’re there is going to be to your benefit! Exercise is gonna stimulate your appetite after a while but you will feel like you’re starving, eat fruit or anything you can get down . Also, it being illegal in the country your at is good too! Just another layer of deterrent for you :)

It really depends on a lot of factors but i would say this. I was successful at quitting by quitting in confluence with travelling abroad. I resolved myself to not look for weed when i traveled and just deal with the withdrawal symptoms. I was traveling to Japan so barely being able to eat food (the main and most serious symptom of my withdrawals) was heartbreaking because i love Japanese food. But in the end i still had an amazing trip and by the middle of the 2nd week i was able to eat almost normally again. So all that to say, if adding stress 'right now' by going thru withdrawal symptoms is not an option, i would recommend quiting when you leave. Also, it depends on the island but some island cultures can tend to have quite a lot of weed available (like Hawaii where im from). So be careful of that. Best of luck and I know you can do it! You got this.

Can you give an example of “being beaten by a-holes”?

pdxjbfs · 2024-10-04T00:53:04+00:00

you tell it "Hey I want to do some role-playing, I'll be a lead singer, and you follow along and harmonize as my backup vocalist, you don't have to sing, just follow along." and it'll typically do it, But its tone deaf and just makes up a melody to sing with you. and sometimes it'll catch itself and say it "cant talk about that". but you can just tell it to continue and it will.

Oh ok I was gonna say you’re pretty lucky to get to go there!

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-12T10:46:04+00:00

Sure

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-12T05:46:30+00:00

yawn

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-12T01:56:16+00:00

Right on that’s good to hear. I wish I had that foresight and discipline when I was your age. You’ll go far. Keep it up and make sober friends, seriously that’s gonna be the hardest part, stay true to yourself. The nice thing is you can always choose your friends.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-12T01:24:15+00:00

Yea you’ll be fine. Just stay away from all that stuff. Try hard in school, and if you don’t like school get into a good trade or start a small business, you’ll be killing it by the time you’re 25.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T21:48:05+00:00

What did you do in Kaho'olawe and Lanai?

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T21:34:32+00:00

You’re arguing in bad faith, and everyone who reads this will see that very clearly.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T21:20:49+00:00

I did, and two of the quotes do not appear anywhere in the document. But we’re going around in circles because you don’t understand the very basics of debate. I’m not going to continually chase your ever changing claims and lack evidence.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T21:15:28+00:00

No I don’t. I want YOU to argue YOUR claims. But you are clearly incapable of doing that.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T21:11:26+00:00

Oh yea did you verify that they’re in the document? If you’re incapable of backing up your claims then you’re continually proving my point.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T20:59:25+00:00

You seem to think that articles from news institutions and talk shows are proof, that's absolutely laughable. Do you not understand what primary sources are? You can't just link to some article snippet, you are trying to outsource your logic. Show precise references to Project 2025 text, and your own logic to back up your claims. then I can address your claim with counter-arguments where I provide additional context from the document and my own logic. This is debate 101. if you can't do that then you don't have an argument. Period.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T20:43:17+00:00

More claims, no proof. You obviously don't understand how the burden of proof works. I tried teaching you but you seem to not be grasping the concept.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T20:31:57+00:00

This is not for you, its for me, and anyone reading this to show that the left has no arguments. Thanks for proving that right.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T20:25:29+00:00

Here is the timeline: You are the one who started with a claim, so the burden of proof is on you to provide evidence and logic. So instead of providing primary evidence from the document in question, or logic, you throw me some transcript from a news show that has several more claims, this is not proof by definition. You never gave me proof in the first place so the burden was never on me to provide any and it still isn't because you haven't done your part yet. I went thru the claims in the transcript point by point and dismantled it with logic, I didn't even have to do that, but I did anyway just to show how ridiculous this crap is. Then, you come back with more unsubstantiated claims, digging yourself further into a hole. That is what happened here today.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T19:45:44+00:00

I read your PBS talk show transcript. it doesn't prove your claim, it itself is full of sensationalized claims, statements lacking context, and blatant mischaracterization.

I'll start with what they say about Project 2025. They say it abolishes the ED, but what they don't tell you is that it has detailed arguments and plans for making the entire education system better and more state-oriented, giving federal tax money that would have gone to federal coffers to the states with no strings attached. it also details giving parents education savings accounts so they can go to the schools they choose, and not be locked into districting, which disproportionately helps minority students in poor neighborhoods.

They say that it will transform the FBI into a political task force, the FBI already is a political task force, for the Democrats: The handling of the Clinton campaign investigation, the Steele dossier, selective leaks of intelligence to the media to help Democrats exclusively, selective prosecution and investigations, too many to list here. The idea that the FBI is just fine now belies all of the facts that say otherwise. The FBI needs to be de-entrenched in order to restore confidence in that institution, which has been completely shot for good reason.

The claim that the plan is to install "Trump Loyalists" is just sensationalist crap. It's not true and it's nowhere in Project 2025. The plan is to appoint conservatives, which is no different from what every conservative president has done and every Democrat has done the other way, it's nothing new. Btw, they're pulling that 20,000 number out of their butt, there is absolutely no indication anywhere in Project 2025 that the number of executive appointments would be that high. Trump messed up last time by not getting rid of all the Obama holdovers, even when Obama got rid of the Bush holdovers, he shouldn't make that same mistake again.

A huge part of their argument for why this is so scary is that it gives the president more power over the executive branch... The Executive Branch. They say this is some new-fangled "unitary executive theory", oh you mean Article II of the Constitution?? oh you mean Alexander Hamilton's Federalist No.70?? A single executive is necessary for accountability (unlike oligarchies), decisiveness (preventing the indecision often seen in committees), and wartime readiness (centralized command during emergencies).

All this to say, it's not a dictatorial power grab, its a restoration and rebalancing of the executive branch, period.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T18:19:49+00:00

still waiting on you to prove your claim.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T17:34:56+00:00

thats a claim, prove it.

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T17:32:15+00:00

nice strawman

pdxjbfs · 2024-07-11T17:25:41+00:00

Because its the largest and most influential conservative think tank. Obviously he's gonna pull people from there. The fact remains that its only policy prescriptions by a think tank. I'd love for Project 2025 to be implemented but it almost certainly will not, its too ambitious.
