    My wife has been having trouble sleeping and struggling with increased anxiety during the day, and her doctor wants to increase her Zoloft dosage and possibly start her on gabapentin - I've been trying to get her to consider THC / CBD with edibles and stuff like that. I can't do anything with THC or CBD because I get drug tested at work, but she doesn't.

    I take gabapentin and it works great. 200mg for anxiety in the morning, 800mg to pass the fuck out at night

    I used to primarily use THC for sleep but the gabapentin gets me so tired that I don't really need it as much anymore.

    she always does this kind of segue into her sponsor ads and I think it's actually really funny

    Yeah, we've been talking about it because at the risk of sharing far, faaaaar too much information here, the Zoloft has some negative effects on sex drive. Historically, I used to smoke some weed but it was never a big part of my life, but its not something she ever did really, so recommending THC / CBD to her is basically completely out of left field and strikes her as weird, but like I said, she is not drug tested for work.

    I won't be, but I will be there on the 23rd I think? Michigan football starting up ends up taking my Saturdays now but we for sure will have to link up at some point because I will definitely take some samples and of course actually meet you in person since we talked on your move to this side.

    And yeah its so fucking tough now, I try to be principled but even then I find out more companies do shady shit or not listen to customer feedback (*cough* Fifth Age *cough*). If I could afford it I would only use the good ones I know but its a give and take.

    I’ve never been to the big house so a u of m game is on my list this year. My friend works at eastern so I’m trying to get to some EMU games too (prob more basketball I think). Definitely plan to get to some u of m hockey games as well. I’m excited for the game tomorrow night. We’re eating at like 3 diff polish spots before/after the game too.

    I am interested in how this sentencing for Tarrio is going to turn out. His lieutenants in the Proud Boys got 10-15 years. Will he get higher years for being the ringleader? Or lower because he wasn't physically there on 1/6?

    Tarrio has the Sedition charge though so it could be a lot regardless. Pezzola got 10 years despite being found not guilty of sedition.

    lol at these 1/6 assholes all doing the same shit of crying at their sentencing about how they're done with right wing politics and want to live an apolitical life from now on, and as soon as they get sentenced to major time they turn off the crocodile tears and continue to yell about Trump winning.

    wanna go for a ryyyde

    always liked the idea of working in the weed business myself but ive heard very similar things about several companies here and the pay is just not justifiable. whole legal market pretty much seems like a racket that depends on federal criminalization staying put

    It'd be fun but I don't like the idea of me and my clothes reeking at the end of a shift haha

    Yeah penn is a weird market. Michigan’s pay rate in cannabis is so much better than any of the other industries for sales.
    Reeking from??? Unless you’re trimming or working in a facility but you’re also in a full suit over your clothes and shoes. In retail you don’t smell like weed either.

    Huh. My fiance had a client who works in retail and she was telling her that she always has to shower thoroughly when she gets home

    dispos definitely smell a little dank haha. i could see how the smell would get on you spending all day in there like how you might get that cigar smell on you if you work in a smoke shop. i wouldnt really care about that beyond the risks of smelling like weed on the commute home though

    Yeah I mean, maybe if you're only selling carts and edibles you're good, but every preroll I've ever bought stank even through the plastic tube. Thankfully my dispensary puts it in a zippered plastic bag from there so my car doesn't smell

    They already have. The place is down to 1.9 stars on 600 reviews on yelp.

    Looks like yelp actually flagged it though for unusual activity and stopped allowing new reviews for now.

    " A paddock is a small enclosure for horses. In the United Kingdom, this term also applies to a field for a general automobile racing competition, particularly Formula 1."

    Paddock is just what that type of building in F1 has always been called.

    I learned that word from Jurassic Park. They had a paddock for the raptors.
