Watched reality set in for…

Watched reality set in for Minny against OSU. It was fun while it lasted. I had this game on in the background of our second tv in the living room. On the main tv we had season premier of What we Do in the Shadows. It's the most underrated comedy on right now. I can watch anything by Taika Waititi. 

For that reason is why I…

For that reason is why I stick to live rosin and/or moving to dry herb. Just too many unknowns with terps and shady characters that get preferential testing results.

sounds like my mom. We used to find vodka and rum bottles hidden around the house. She would go to rehab and then be back on the sauce a few months later. She didn't start taking her sobriety serious until her drinking led to a heart attack and her doctor said she could either keep drinking or die. She has been sober for 11 years now and regularly attends AA.

I didn't try it until my PhD program and even then I didn't buy own for another 7 years later until I was 37. It seemed like half of my cohort class in my doctoral program used weed. 

oh I completely understand…

oh I completely understand the risk involved. With the ents groups I started following on reddit, I have been sticking to the better reviewed carts (element live oil, claw, stiizy) and with producers that have less additives to the cart. With dry herb i regularly utilize a water pipe adapter to lower the temperature of the vapor and increase the humidity of the vapor. 

My warning signs were…

My warning signs were instead of using better social emotional skills, I reached for a bottle/can of a high content beer (im talking 13-15% beer) or a few fingers worth of bourbon every night, weight gain, and moving to hypertension despite having zero family history of hypertension and relatively healthy diet free from saturated fat/low cholesterol and high salt and a very active lifestyle. I saw family members that drank themselves to death as well. 

since moving to thc (just a couple times a week), I drink way less now (maybe once a week now) and I focus on better stress relief skills and techniques. 

Don't you have anti-american…

Don't you have anti-american propaganda machine to run than focus on little old me.

I am a scientist as well (molecular biology with a research focus on electronic structures of heme based metalloproteins).

I am actually moving towards vaping for pain relief and anti-inflammatory properties. I am also moving away alcohol, to which my consumption definitely increased during the pandemic shut down. I have a family history of alcohol abuse. I have since decreased my drinking drammatically from averaging easily two beers a night to maybe one beer a week. I don't vape that much anyways. Just after my weekly long run (anywhere from 10 miles to 20 miles) and once during Friday nights to wind down.

I am trying to get away from alcohol. I have a family history of alcohol abuse. I have also noticed weight gain over the past year from my increased drinking even though I am very active with running. My drinking is starting to impact my cadiovascular health as well. Since I started to vape (dry herb and cart), my drinking has decreased and I have lost weight. I am also noticing my bp has decreased. 

I just can't do cigars or tobacco.

good lord a 42% strain. good luck passing that off as real. 

 

I also like Bloom City. They have good budtenders and good deals.

alcohol is what I am trying to get away from. I have several family members drink themselves into liver failure.

same here. They either do nothing, or they make me fall asleep. 

this is great advice. I…

this is great advice. I mostly just stick to when hanging with friends with whatever they brought from the adult use market. Now, I will talk to budtenders and listen to their recommendations.

pick your poison

Even marathon running is damaging to my heart. I should really move down to the half to 15k distance.

michigan football for how much I exalt it, is the definition of a depressant.

I am a distance runner and run at least two marathons a year (been averaging around 3:30-3:40). I don't smoke. Stick to vaping. 

What is the current…

What is the current ettiquette for weed? Should I invite neighboring tailgates over to partake? What about edibles?

For a bit when he didn't medal in the 10k, I was a bit relieved that he left some in the tank for the marathon. He had a week to taper for the week. Man, when I train for a marathon my taper is 2 weeks long.

Anyone else watch Galen Rupp pick up a bronze in the marathon this morning? First medal for an American born runner since Frank Shorter.

Someday you will grow up and drink real beer. Pick up a sixer of Bell's Amber. It is a good starter beer if you are poor college student just getting into craft beer.

Ugh...my last day of summer

Ugh...my last day of summer vacation. Teachers report tomorrow morning for PD. At least this year the administration wises up and cut the amount of BS PD in half giving us much more time to set up our rooms, plan, and prep for the upcoming school year.

Yeah you know he swastika used to symbolize peace before the Nazi's took it over. Let's start flying that flag. Nice logic.
