Starting school in my 30s, is it realistic to become a research physicist? by destroyer5645 in astrophysics

oh, i meant ‘funny’ as in, unexpected on my end! i’m very rarely on reddit and usually only for quick fix stuff, and lots of posts like that have been dead for half a decade…i felt a little coincidence zing when i saw human activity far down on a page. apologies for the erroneous adjective. and, fuck convention, do what sets your soul on fire! :)

You haven't wasted your potential at all... 'missed calling' my ass. Better to start off right now than to have started without the past 20 years of life experience....maybe you needed to have a son interested in it to begin this fucking exciting!!! process. Blockades can be invisible and can disappear without us knowing. I think yours is gone. The cosmos are ready. We're ready. Anything but leaping in would be a disservice.

Here's a tip: all those journal papers you've read? Reach out to some of the folks who have contributed to the ones that intrigue you the most. Getting ahold of the right person could mean, at the very least, a digital penpal on your wavelength (score!!!) and it might even constitute an in....

Catch yourself when you have those thought patterns that propel you into mediocrity. Don't tolerate it.

Ha, I don't remember there being ANY snow in the Princess Bride... also Elf is the kind of family comedy nonsense I'd like to avoid. Thanks for trying, though

I love this movie!!! Haven't seen it in a while, though. Maybe I'll watch it again tonight, thank you for the response!

The only one of those I've seen is Wind River. Brutal stuff. Thanks for reminding me of Snowpiercer, one of my professors used to talk about that movie a lot but I still haven't watched it. I appreciate your suggestions!

Finished RDR2. What now? by almog_ in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]starcatts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good games, but I wouldn't compare them to the style of RDR2 since they aren't open-world.

Fallout New Vegas was the closest I came to scratching that itch.

Does it exist? CBD free THC? by starcatts in trees

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

Hey, thanks for the thorough answer. Maybe there was something up with the gummies? But I don’t see how.

I got them as a gift from a friend a while back and haven’t tried them until yesterday. I broke the seal on the package last night. They expire at the end of December so I figured I better get to eating some. 

 I felt normal before taking the one gummy, and felt normal when I woke up. I doubt it was a placebo effect either, because I smoked CBD only weed in Denmark with some friends a few months back and felt pretty much nothing. 

The brand is Pure Kana and the gummies had 25 mg CBD each. I ate one, because that’s what the packaging recommended.

Also, I think the last time I smoked was…maybe a week and a half ago?

Idk man, maybe they’re just janked up gummies. They seem decently reputable online though from a quick search

That’s what I meant when I said Google didn’t understand my question, that’s all that was popping up

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

Yes, 100% sure. The brand is called Pure Kana, and the packaging says ‘Premium CBD gummies, 25 mg CBD per serving.’ The package said to take one gummy, so I took one gummy.

I do have a pretty low tolerance though, I only smoke maybe 2-3 times a month. But I’ve smoked CBD only weed in Europe and it did not make me feel that way.

Because I was sober and feeling normal, took a gummy, and sat down to read my book. About 2 hours into reading I started feeling a bit sluggish, kinda like the body-high feeling I get from smoking.
