If it takes you two hits to get the level you wanted to get to instead of ten, then that's better for your lungs and better all round. It's not like drinking a bottle of whiskey in one go I will say that the tendency to breed 0% CBD strains isn't great, but that's a function of prohibition

escapegoat posted:These are always great. What the gently caress is reverse osmosis? Been a while since I did biology but isn't osmosis basically two solvents going through a membrane from a high concentration to a low, ending with some sort of equilibrium? Is reverse osmosis 2 solvents in equilibrium separating until one is high concentration and the other is low?

if you force water through an ion* selective membrane, the water goes through but the ions don't so you end up with water moving from a higher concentration solution to a lower concentration which is the opposite of normal osmosis e: well, not just ions I suppose, I was mostly thinking about the ones for deionising water in labs XMNN fucked around with this message at 13:55 on May 4, 2020 |

It's not like drinking a bottle of whiskey in one go Isn't there a problem with THC levels and the effect it can have on people developing early onset psychosis? I know from my work (and I accept it is anecdotal) there is a lot of problems with young people with no previous diagnosed history of mental illness developing it af tr er having used high THC cannabis. I don't think that Weed is causing it, they were always likely to develop it. But it is being activated earlier and more severe from use of weed.

The Question IRL posted:Isn't there a problem with THC levels and the effect it can have on people developing early onset psychosis? there does seem to be a link in the vulnerable, yeah, but I'd guess that if modern weed does contribute more to the issue it's just that it makes it easier to get high, so then you might get high more often. Having to blow through half a gram of ditch weed isn't nearly as fun as having a couple of hits and getting on with whatever you were doing, so you'll be tempted to do it more often. But THC is THC, y'know? I'm not one for hyper strong super skunk myself, but it's again an issue with prohibition. My ideal A Weed would be 15-20% CBD and 15-20% THC, terpenes and secondary cannabinoids to taste, which is unfortunately not the way (black) market forces are currently pushing it

Probably the most problematic book I own is the Gates of Janus by Ian Brady that I keep meaning to chuck but also haven't yet read so I'm on the fence about. I binned off a bunch of Updike and Hemingway just because I didn't like the way they wrote about women, so I'm unsure why I've kept that particular book. Shame I can't do secret santa any more otherwise some head of HR would be frowning at it.

There's literally nothing anywhere in her background to suggest it, and I was *deeply* suspicious of the way she ran up nominations from the PLP (never even offering to donate nominations to others and blocking people on Twitter for suggesting she might supply the numbers needed to get Dawn Butler on the ballot. I suppose not taking part in the Chicken Coup was a big plus for her, and fair play to her, but that's pretty much it. (Note that I don't actually *mind* her as a figure on the Labour right, and if they were all like her we would have a much better party, I'm just trying to soften the blow for everyone when it turns out she doesn't storm the lectern at Conference waving the Little Red Book)
