The ketamine sold legally - esketamine - is an enantiopure version rather than the racemic mixture of the two different stereoisomers of the chemical that you get from regular ketamine synthesis. It's more powerful and probably has different effects than the street poo poo.

It's more powerful and probably has different effects than the street poo poo. regular, anaesthetic ketamine is also sold legally and used as infusion, and the data indicates that it’s more effective for more people than esketamine, plus it’s cheap as hell but esketamine is patented and therefore did the full trials for depression treatment, so it’s on-label and therefore more likely to be covered by insurance

Definitely varies by insurance company though, from "your doctor needs to sign a thing and send it back and we'll approve it, the whole process takes like two days and you don't need to do anything" to "you need to go back and try several other drugs and treatments first and document how each one fucks you up before we'll approve this, and even though you're already on it for that exact reason and have been for years that doesn't count because that was with your old insurance company, go gently caress yourself"

We were at a museum recently and gettin' a little tired from walking around so much, so we found a nice little room off to the side labeled "relaxation / decompression room" or something like that, that had a nice couch and subdued lights, so we went in and sat on the big comfy couch and relaxed for a bit thinking oh this is great, why don't more places have this. Then I noticed it had a box of simple toys and children's books behind the couch and thought about it for a sec and realized oh wait this is a room for you to bring your autistic child to when they're getting overstimulated, and then we felt real guilty and weird about it so we left.

My university had a room like that actually, except it had religious texts instead of toys and a neat ceiling sticker pointing towards Mecca. I used it for naps occasionally, but I vacated it whenever anyone came in basically.

back when i worked in an office in-person instead of WFH, i discovered my access card allowed me to enter a vacant office a floor down and id go down there every afternoon for a half hour and hang out with only sunlight to illuminate the space. it was awesome and helped eye fatigue from staring at a computer screen for the rest of the day. my boss didn't give a poo poo where i was or what i was doing, so i had it dicked. also, functionally my own private bathroom. the 90-120 minute commute each way sucked balls, but at least the office itself was chill

I'm trying very hard to understand this wikipedia entry without getting a nosebleed. Can someone explain the various stages of American capitalism detailed herein and what they mean? I was trying to understand why every florist where my parents live, except for the most boutique and upscale ones, which I know are brick and mortar, offers the same flowers for Mothers' Day, and now I'm at a total loss. Where the gently caress do flowers come from? posted:
How the gently caress did a florist become a telecommunications company, become a hedge fund (?)? My best guess: Floral Wire Service and Retailer (Early 20th Century): Emergence of national markets facilitated by technological advances like the telegraph, which FTD used to establish a network of florists to deliver flowers across distances promptly. This era saw the growth of service-oriented businesses alongside industrial enterprises. Retailers' Cooperative (Founded 1910, Demutualized 1994): As a cooperative, FTD was owned and run by its members (florists) for mutual benefit, typical of early 20th-century cooperative movements seeking to protect small businesses and local industries from monopolies and larger competitors. Demutualization and Acquisition by a Private Hedge Fund (1994): Reflects the deregulation trends of the late 20th century, emphasizing privatization and the shift towards maximizing shareholder value. The transition from a cooperative to a private, for-profit entity underlines the financialization of the economy. International Expansion and Use of a Global Telecommunications Network (Mid-20th Century Onwards): Expansion beyond national borders, leveraging global telecommunications infrastructure to facilitate international business transactions. Initial Public Offering and Listing on NASDAQ/NYSE (2000s): Emphasizes the role of large corporate entities in shaping economic landscapes, utilizing stock markets for capital and public investments. This stage aligns with the growing influence of corporate governance and finance in the global economy. Merger and Acquisition by United Online (2008), Spin-off and Later Transactions: Characterized by the consolidation of businesses to form larger conglomerates, often driven by the search for synergies, cost reductions, and expanded market dominance. Complex financial strategies and restructuring efforts to boost profitability and shareholder returns. Bankruptcy and Restructuring (2019), Acquisition by Nexus Capital: Reflects the volatility of neoliberal market practices, where companies may undergo rapid expansion but also face significant challenges that lead to restructuring and bankruptcy. The involvement of private equity firms and hedge funds in restructuring reflects continued emphasis on asset optimization and financial engineering.

"leveraging global telecommunications infrastructure to facilitate international business transactions" doesn't mean you're a telecommunications company, it means "we have the phone/fax numbers and some kind of payment setup for a lot of local florists so we can send them an order to fulfill". it's resume-speak

In that case you need to taunt him with a really cool and rare sticker you can only get from a gacha machine, but every time he gets enough points for a pull it's just common ones again.
