One of my past boyfriends was given the birth name Leviticus.
He was rather flamboyant.

Depends on the person. Everyone reacts differently to any drug, and cannabis is no different in this respect.
I have friends who consume once or twice per day, any more and they’re not functional enough for the day. I have friends who consume once every few weeks, any more and it causes issues for them.I consume 2-3g of flower per day, throughout each day, alongside the occasional hashish and edible, and I’ve accomplished a fair bit from an unconditional offer to university for History BA Hons, worked for a US gov contract with the Affordable Care Act, etc. etc. (currently taking a change of direction and getting into a more creative field).
If most people smoked like I do, the last thing they would be doing is reading novels and research articles like myself.
Everyone is different. Really pay attention to how your consumption affects you, and make a sober assessment on whether it’s something that you’re comfortable fitting into your life in the manner in which you consume. The truth that many people don’t say, and this is coming from a consumer of just over two decades, is there are plenty of people for which cannabis is NOT good for, and provides more detriment than benefit.
Listen to your body and mind, is all I can suggest, but if you feel that it doesn’t cause conflicts in your daily living I wouldn’t worry about it. Enjoy the ganja, find something tasty and have a good time :)

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•‘In two years, nobody will care’ if actors are AI or not, predicts La Haine directorEnglish
1·2 months agoUnlikely. For films that are easily forgettable and barely spoken of even a couple of months are release, sure. For films people want to rewatch, still unlikely.
There are many issues with the notion of AI in film, however two things which may always be an issue:
-
the systems are built on what already exists. Actors over time have had the smallest quirks become iconic, often repeatable references in everyday life. From a perfectly timed wink within a specific context, to a sort of humour that the audience hasn’t been familiarised with in any way beforehand (or little enough for there to be no impact prior to seeing this hypothetical performance).
Seeing these quirks repeated just do not, and cannot have the same impact in a new film if our subconscious is already within an understanding that what we are seeing has been done before.
AI actors, by design, are only good for genericism. -
AI is built on specific things, what it is told to do, and even if it does it well it has a great flaw that is going unnoticed by people praising the idea of using it: perfection.
People are not perfect. Analyse any acting considered good, and the nuance within their movements, speech, and so on will be very noticeable.
This is another flaw of the very design of AI: the aim, from the start, is to have commands produce a perfect representation of what the person wants, yet this also pushes the tool so far away from being in any way ‘human’, that it begs the question as to exactly HOW the use of AI will be so popular, if it’s made to be as robotically detached from the principles of the filming process (almost entirely)?
I just do not see AI being capable of producing an actor worthy of a mention. And this doesn’t even graze the arguments regarding the removement of passionate effort, which can go into the bulk of an essay easily.

If someone posts nothing but doom and gloom, it’s a surefire way to get blocked. There’s too much of that elsewhere, and I’m aware of it all. Sometimes I just want to look at memes to distract myself from thinking that everything is on fire.
I absolutely loved my lecturers in uni.
They did all sorts of things to hint at getting the books for free, like Z Library at the time and such. Once a lecturer arranged to turn her back to the board and be ambiguous about her mentions, with a student putting the link written on paper on the board.
They thought it was also bullshit to pay so much for material, and encouraged piracy since we were paying a fair bit for tuition and such anyway.
Ah thanks for pointing that out, I forget not all US States have it.
Nearly every restaurant I’ve been to, and take away place, has proudly shown their hygiene ratings as a sticker on the window. These can be verified via a website too. It’s very useful as I get an upset stomach rather easily.
The best burgers I have had, have been from small back alley places. Had one a couple of months ago, lovely quarter pounder with chips (fries) and a drink for around £6 here in London.
Had less of an upset stomach too, although I do still check the hygiene ratings for the places which helps in this regard.
I do this always, and even for my spliff ends (we call the cardboard bit a roach here) in a pocket ash tray.
It really bugs me when I find a rather nice smoke spot, lovely nature area, and upon my third or fourth visit there is just rubbish everywhere.
Folks have cleaned the areas, only to find them in such a state in practically no time at all.
I wish people would take more responsibility with their rubbish. It literally takes only one pocket, or a small otherwise unused compartment in my bag. It’s ridiculously easy to not litter!!
I like to encourage a silly sort of reaction, rather than a hostile one.
I was playing Rocket League the other day, and said that the enemy team’s mother buys off-brand baked beans. I got called a doughnut.
If someone is being angry, try calling them various fruit. Then again some people are just straight up chikoos.
Even when I say I’m growing strawberries, people think I’m growing cannabis.
I mean, I’m not growing strawberries and most definitely growing cannabis, however it’s the insinuation!
One of my mates goes with his wife and kids to forage for morel mushrooms, it’s a big family activity and they love it.
I haven’t tried Morel mushrooms though, would like to give them a go with what he has said about them (we are separated by ocean or I would ask him, at the right time of year).
It’s against most rules for advocating against certain things, however for educational purposes only I would suggest a slow roast with a barbeque glaze, and if you’d like to put in some effort an apple and sage stuffing could really help bring some flavours out (be sure to remove that giant stick they all have up their arse first, though).
No stress at all. You can never be too sure these days, I suppose.
I think someone downvoted you, it was not me though I just wanted to mention.
I apologise if I provided that impression, it wasn’t my intention. The truth is I try to be honest at times, and when I get stoned I tend to not think before I type and so sometimes the words I use are the immediate ones I’m finding relevant to use (I hope that makes sense, I took an edible some time ago and it’s hitting me a bit hard and I’m doing my best to explain). This is also combined with another thing, the reason why perhaps the words I found relevant to use to describe my experience is due to the biological male part being on my mind quite a lot lately.
To clarify, as you did ask: in recent times, at 37 years of age, I have come to realise that I have always been non-binary since as far as I can remember. From the age of 4 I would question, with great confusion, the divide between male and female gender norms and, fast forward to today, I truly don’t think I ever felt as though I belonged in either group.
It’s rather difficult for me to describe, however I never quite felt as though my thoughts, my inner feelings, ever reflected those of either male nor female yet somewhere wobbling in-between. Therefore, whilst I am biologically male and quite accepting of this, I do not quite feel as though I can call myself a man. This has been on my mind quite a lot lately, partly as this realisation has been rather freeing in some ways and I am slowly coming to accept myself for who I am, which I am trying to get some confidence about. I have also been thinking a lot about my life, and my behaviours over the years, etc.I hope this answers your question. Please let me know if I left anything out.




Hey, maybe some of us are into that!
Big media is trying to erase twinks!!!
