sharing this here instead of the ce thread where i was making jokes about poppers, I didn't really know anything about them except they were somehow involved with anal sex until a few months ago. A group of us were out for a friend's birthday, and she wanted to go to the sex shop. While the ladies of the group were examining their putative purchases at the counter, one of the guys in the group (who just got a new girlfriend) says he's out and asks the guy behind the counter if he can "take a look at that box of poppers." The clerk dutifully responded "sir, that's the illegal term for the product, you have to leave." Our friend, a state attorney, looks incredulous at the clerk and responds "i'm sorry?" in a questioning and semi-apologetic tone. The clerk tells him again "You have to leave. Now." Right now, our friend is bright red and sheepishly embarrassed because he was quietly trying to get some stuff for buttsex with his new gal and now every eye in the store is firmly fixed upon him. He asked if he could stand just past the anti-theft stuff in the foyer where they check IDs before allowing you inside. He was told "No. You have to go all the way outside. Now."

It wasn't even my birthday and he gave us all the best present he could imagine. This happened at the start of april and we all still laugh over it.

So back in 2014 I filed a VA claim for my left shoulder, because I'd been having problems with it for years and it started in Iraq.

The claim was denied because of lack of evidence. So I appealed.

During the course of the appeal the VA did an MRI of my neck and shoulder, then denied my claim because they found nothing wrong with my shoulder. This was May of last year.

Today I learned that the MRI showed my neck is all kinds of hosed up.

All of my cervical vertebrae have bone spurs, most of them have arthritis, and one of them has a herniated disc. These issues are causing the spaces where the nerves going to my arms and shoulders come out of my spinal cord to shrink, possibly impinging on the nerves themselves. So it appears my shoulder issues are actually caused by my hosed up neck.

The VA has known this since May of last year. They never told me that there was anything wrong with my neck, just "your shoulder is fine, claim denied."

So now I'm taking my case to an attorney. I'm going to try go get them to 1) approve a claim for my neck and 2) backdate the claim to when I filed for my shoulder, because clearly this is the same goddamned issue and they clearly withheld information. "Well, your shoulder is fine. Not gonna mention how these issues might be caused by your neck, though."

loving VA.

You probably don’t need an attorney for that. Also do not use any attorney that tries to charge you (because legally they’re not allowed). Did you use a VSO when you filed the original claim? If not go see a VSO asap.

Remember I posted the one dispensary that's offering a 20% discount and joked that at least they weren't so on the nose that they did 22%. Well, one of other dispensaries just sent me an ad and they're doing 22% because 22 vets kill themselves a day. Big loving advertisement that includes the text "this sale is not stackable with veterans discount."

I dunno. This poo poo rubs me the wrong way. I'm all about raising suicide awareness. I don't think that it should be a marketing tool like this, though.

Question: are any of those proceeds going to an organization that helps vets, or are they otherwise helping vets at all? If not, that's a lovely marketing gimmick and they can go gently caress themselves.

None that they mention at all. That's something I specified in the email I wrote back.

Edit:

Am I crazy or is this just kindof lovely:

Do you mean they can't charge me up front, or they can't charge period? Because the latter doesn't really make sense to me.

There are specific limits to what lawyers are legally allowed to charge veterans for VA claims. The agency pays fees for successful claims, iirc, and it usually costs veterans zero out of pocket.

With florida mmj, you can have up to a 70 day supply of whole flower, oral inhalation, and edible marijuana. A 70 day supply is currently capped at 1/4lb of whole flower (imagine a gallon ziplock bag full if you've never personally handled a qp of fluffy nugs)(limited to purchase of 2.5 ounces every 35 days), and 14000mg for both inhalation and edible. All vapes fall under inhalation. Concentrates can fall under your inhalation or edible allowance because you can technically eat a bit of shatter and it'll function just like any other edible or you can dab it and inhale. And then pills and other edibles (whenever they finally hit the market) take up your edible allowance.

It would take a lot to actually use up to the cap on a personal level.

torn hip + alcohol + shittons of pills from army/navy docs and the va had me at around 210. I was fat. I look at old pictures of myself and I'm just like "ugh" but now I'm in better shape than I was while in (thanks to no alcohol) and down to around 155. I've been lifting weights again and actually enjoy running now. I do take a few bong rips before working out, though. THC's bronchodilator seems to make it easier to breathe while running.

Posting this in what I think is the most appropriate thread.

First, loving :lol: that PCOS_Bill was Aran and at least one mod knew. If you don't know, Aran was one of the first ever permas and is the founder of Something Sensitive.

If you're not up on the forums drama, last night former and now permabanned d&d mod party planes jones was found to have been a very active participant on a bunch of nazi and alt-right discords. Koalas March and Jeffrey of YOSPOS both responded that they knew and PPJ was running deep cover to keep an eye on extreme groups. He then self-permabanned.

cspam, and it's not really very easy to follow because half the people are just yelling into the void. this started lastnight when recently permabanned and long time generally crazy poster spammed a few boards with threads about how PPJ was hanging out in a bunch of nazi discords and posted chat logs of some egregious examples. permabanned poster gets banned, bunch of people continue yelling about the original permaban. KoalasMarch comes out and says that he's doing it for the good of the board and had actually helped keep her from getting doxxed. Lots more of PPJ's posting comes out, he tries to delete logs on discord, posts some long winded explanation (linked above), has both KM and Jeffrey come out and say he was doing it for us. Then even the nazis make accounts to post logs saying that he was one of their most active chatters and was trying to bury his tracks. PPJ then self permabans.

After one of the rounds, McGregor tried to calm down Nurmagomedov by telling him "it's just business" and then got beat some more.
