You tell me obviously, but you just told otterpop that the research material used to validate the other stuff with would be the source.

I don't necessarily disagree with the original point, I'm just pointing this part out.

I'd like to see two things.

  1. The demographics of people who live within a few miles of golf courses. Are they wealthier with better Healthcare, allowing them to live long enough to develop Alzheimer's?
  2. Were pesticides used heavily in the golf courses surveyed?

As with all statistics, more data = context.

You just said it, the research validates the source where you learned the fact. In this case, it's a video game lol. The medium doesn't matter, only that the information is correct

I would go back and tell myself not to sacrifice certain things just to be high for the day. Don't change the positive things in your life. You should always know you control a substance, don't allow the drug to let you think you're in control. When you start to think you have do something high that you wouldn't if you were sober (e.g. hanging out with friends, spending the day with family, watching a movie, etc,) then that's when you're in very dangerous territory.

No. As with all things in life, there's nuance. Your body is different than mine. While I don't have an inherently addictive physiology, I quickly went from practicing moderation to using everyday, to quite literally never being truly sober. And I stopped myself a few times in the beginning - I knew I was slipping, and I held myself accountable and would be better for a time. Until eventually I forgot or was too apathetic, I can't remember honestly

Op, please read this.

A long time ago, I went through this. The details don't matter so much because our situations aren't the same. But I fell deep into addiction for a few years because I was dealing with several issues - some of which I've always dealt with and will continue to do so, others were temporary.

I still have to face the problems I did before, but now I have the occasional craving. Before, I would lie in bed or sleep if I was going through a depressive episode for a few weeks / months. Now, I want to burn my savings until I black out or can't remember why I started. Now, I get cravings if I use any kind of nasal spray. Now, I will dream of being high and will have cravings for the rest of the week.

If you can't change what you're going through, and you know you'll be dealing with it in the future, then why would you add more problems for your future self? The drugs I did were amazing until I came down, and they changed me. Some of the changes made me a better person due to the struggles and inconsistent clarity they presented, but some of the changes just made my suffering worse. Drugs will give you relief while you're high. But all things come to an end, be it the high or your life. Practice safety, use testers, and research everything.

Finally, I can start slowly buying EU4

You realize there are people there that didn't choose to move there, or were born there? It's not at all as simple as "don't live there."

San Francisco is not a luxury brand, it's a fucking city. Because there are more opportunities there, COL is much higher. There are a thousand variables that impact it, but a city is a city, regardless, and everyone deserves to have the opportunity to live decently without fear of homelessness. We're better than that.

Seems the people who interviewed him didn't even think he had too much potential for the NFL lmao

One longtime NFL assistant coach said his time with Sanders was "the worst formal interview I've ever been in in my life. He's so entitled. He takes unnecessary sacks. He never plays on time. He has horrible body language. He blames teammates. ... But the biggest thing is, he's not that good.

Op, this is it. The franchise has been around for decades and covers many historical eras. Recently they got into fantasy and did well with it, though personally I prefer the historical titles with the dynamic dueling.

Like Dr_Nik said, battles are either RTS style that you can choose to control, let ai take over and observe the battle instead, or you can autoresolve and skip a battle entirely. The overall gameplay is similar across each game, but the mechanics and ai behavior vary wildly across titles. If you don't like one game, pick up another and you'll probably love it

No, 57% of registered Gen-Z voters who were men voted for Trump. Keep on mind over half of Gen Z didn't even vote. So the overall percentage of Gen Z who voted for Trump is much, much smaller.

Yeah, it makes it more difficult as your tolerance gets higher. Using a strain with high CBD / CBN as opposed to high THC will help tremendously.

 
 

I fucking hate how accurate it is lol
