Been having a dramatic increase in anxiety and insomnia for the past few days that doesn’t seem to have a source or want to respond much to attempts at mitigation. Very much at a loss as to what to do about it. Might look into going back to my therapist if it doesn’t improve by the end of the week.

Forgive me for being silly, just this once, but you do still smoke weed yes? Might you have gotten hold of a strain that doesn’t agree with you? It’s happened to me before. If you find yourself to wound up and anxious and unable to relax maybe you need something more indica dominant? I’m a regular user and I’ve found heavy sativas make me feel exactly how you just described.

Actually, I haven’t had weed of my own in over a month, and have only very infrequently smoked during that time. I’m actually trying to get a hold of some for after work tonight in the hopes that it’ll help.

If that’s the case, you should listen to Possessed. Indica would be much better than sativa in your case imo too, but I’m sure you already know it.

Don’t listen to him. Listening to me is always a dangerous game and deep down you know it.

Good luck man.

Seeing as how I’m currently smoking a Camel Filter, I think we both know exactly how much I listen to you. 😉

Seriously though, I don’t live in a legal state and don’t have a direct connection to anyone up in Michigan for medical stuff, so I couldn’t tell you if what I end up getting is an indica or a sativa. But it looks like I’m gonna be able to get some after work now, so hopefully it helps, regardless of the strain.

I don’t know whatelse to say other than I hope things get better for you Ash, and we’ll be here if you need us. Have a good evening friend.

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

Terrible DVD/Blu-ray Cover Art

That’s especially funny to me because:

  1. Superman Returns is in a separate continuity from III and IV
  2. Superman II: Donner Cut is in yet another continuity; neither Superman III nor Superman Returns can function as a sequel to the Donner Cut of II
  3. As far as I can see, the theatrical cut of Superman II is not included, so if they’re going for completism by including both branching post-II continuities, they got lazy there for no good reason

Oh, but yeah, the box art is all total garbage.

Oh, right. Well, I honestly don’t know, but from what I can gather, it’s theoretically possible that it would be an issue under the new bill. Hell, Skype just officially banned any and all nudity when using their video chat because of it - not drug related, no, but still an extreme, and the punishment is an irreversible permanent ban from Skype. And really, isn’t long-distance-relationship cyber sex, like, half of what Skype is used for at this point?

That also raises the question of whether such behavior needs to be reported, or if Skype has employees watching random private video chats to police them…

I read through 3 pages worth of threads today to catch up and I couldn’t find the reason why Warb left. Granted, I didn’t read the politics thread because oh god no, so I guess that whatever happened happened in there, but yeah.

I don’t think there was one specific incident that caused it this time, just a lot of pent-up stuff boiling over.

I like your new avatar Ash.

Thanks!

I also like coffee’s new avatar.

As do I.

And have been all along, really, as far as copyright is concerned. Except for those of us who’ve never made or downloaded a fan edit or fan preservation. The “own the source rule” doesn’t make any of this legal, it’s just an ethical standard, and something that sites like this and fanedit.org can point to if the owners of the copyrights decide to start getting shitty about what we do.

But that part of it has never been truly tested anyway, and it’s even murkier now under the new bill.

So, under the proposed bill, would our arguing the merits of decriminalizing certain illegal drugs constitute “promoting” criminal acts, and thus make this site guilty of a crime?

Maybe. The drug ranking thread in itself is probably riskier than a discussion about whether decriminalization/legalization is a good idea or not.

And then there’s the whole question of whether the nature of this site as it stands (fan edits and preservations) could be construed as promoting the criminal act of copyright infringement and/or piracy…
