Cool how some spinal injuries from a car crash years ago is ruining my day right now

[trivialbob]

Sheila and I brought our travel trailer to Illinois.

Bob! Are you two going to see the Bean? Willis Tower? Your college roommate? Or best of all, Navy Pier???

No, we are in Galena, not Chicago, near where Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois have a menage a trois.

Traffic in northwestern IL is substantially more calm than Chicagoland's cutthroat yet clogged artery driving. Like, we could drive the speed limit the entire way. There was one highway though were I got passed constantly. It was two lanes in each direction. What it lacked in shoulders and unbroken blacktop it made up with a smattering of white crosses and flowers.

I motored along at 55 MPH, which felt was safe with a trailer on that state highway. It turned out the speed limit was 65, making me the geezer. But tonight there aren't two new crosses with hardware store stick-on letters reading Bob and Sheila.

We're here three night yet we packed little clothing or food. The idea was to not spend much time getting ready. We are going to eat at restaurants, swim in the campground pool, and not bother with cooking and campfires. The price to stay three nights in the campground is a small fraction of what a B&B or hotel would have cost.

Galena's downtown is so cute you just want to hug and kiss it.

There are plenty of restaurants, bakeries and shops. We plan to visit all of them.

You can go to Gabby's:

Or you can choose Gobbie's. That's what we did. Gobbie's had beer, pizza and reasonably-priced cocktails, things two hungry and thirsty travelers need instead of "quirky finds."

We ordered pizza (pepperoni and green olives) and a reasonably priced cocktail each. The server was excellent. Sheila and I didn't realize the pizza came with salad and bread sticks with dipping sauce. I appreciated him explaining that once we had those things the tractor tire-sized pizza we thought we needed might be too much. We ordered a 12" instead and still had leftovers. I'm already looking forward to pizza for breakfast.

We stopped at a dispensary too. In Minnesota we can buy low potency THC gummies, but no other cannabis products yet. Here in Illinois the store had a large assortment of bud products.

A nice young man helped Sheila select some gummies good for relaxing. "You get a free joint with that purchase," he pleasantly added.

Neither of us smokes. But who am I to turn down FREE stuff. I'll probably play with that little test tube, filling it with match heads or gunpowder to blow it up. I'll give the joint to someone else.

NEW PROPAGANDA AND MEDIA UNDER CUT: ALL POLLS HERE

"We have Donna Murphy as Dolly. We have Donna Murphy as Aurelia. What are we doing to get Donna Murphy in a Mame revival so she can hit the Jerry Herman trifecta? I need this woman back on a stage immediately and genuinely, I cannot tell you how much money I'd be realistically willing to shell out. And on a more personal note? What do I have to do to get Donna Murphy to look at me like she wants to devour me whole? The things I want to do to this woman... She has chemistry with every single person she crosses paths with. I need her carnally."

"Mary Beth Peil's hair deserves a Tony Award of its own. She started going grey almost twenty years ago and never looked back. A grey-haired octogenarian who's actively out here being hot and sexy and showing skin is quite possible one of the hottest things in the world. Let me reiterate: I want to fuck this old woman."

OC posting? On main?

I was gonna say "more likely than you think" as if that hasn't been 50% of my deal lately. Anyway, came across a cute picrew and wanted to show off some of the original characters from Driving Through Tunnels (With No Light at the End) now that we've been introduced to most of the auto shop team!

Ricky (top left)

Jenny (top right)

Roger (bottom left)

Dean (bottom right)

(listen I tried my best to deliver "late 90s" but there's only so many choices when it comes picrew)

Some character rambles under the cut!

Ricky Kronbach - the man, the myth, the legend. Hardly needs an introduction since he's our main guy. Ran into some trouble, stole a conspicuous purple car because of it, and because he could neither afford a new car or a paint job, he tried to proposition Roger in exchange for said paint job. Instead, Ricky got a crash course on how to fix cars, a decent job, and a somewhat stable life in his home state of Minnesota. As of 1998, he's the newest mechanic to join the team. He's a bit of a prodigy when it comes to technology, having gone to university (and then expelled for unsavory reasons) for computer engineering. How that managed to translate to an uncanny ability to fix anything remotely mechanical that he touches is beyond anyone's guess. Ricky's a bit of a sour apple, but no one can really blame him. He plays things close to the vest, and someone must be at least a LVL 50 friend in order to unlock his tragic past.

Jenny - the token girl mechanic at the auto shop, but none of the guys look down at her for it. She can and she will bench press an SUV with her scrawny little arms, and she will also crash people's place whenever they're feeling down with pizza and a six pack. A single child, she's lived a pretty sheltered life. Her parents wanted her to be either a lawyer or a doctor, but ever since she was 5 she would collect Hot Wheels alongside her impressive number of "career" Barbies. She signed up for one class during high school and it was over: there was nothing she wanted more than to work on cars. Jenny's a little put off by Ricky at first since the guy kind of materialized out of nowhere one day, but she soon realized how committed he was to learning the ropes. During his first year at the shop she tended to keep her distance, fraternizing only during Bowling Thursdays, but when weird stuff starts to happen and Ricky begins to grow agitated, she self-appoints herself as Ricky's BFF. Surprisingly, they click extremely well.

Roger - being a man of morals, he saw a desperate kid on the run fighting to survive and he gave him a wrench, the couch in the shop office, and a bite to eat. Jersey accent? Thick. Eyebrows? Thicker. A bit of a hardass at work, but a caring family man when it's time to close up his shop for the day. He's 5'2" and will not hesitate to throw down with someone a foot taller than him if they act stupid. Hardly ever smokes, but will pull out a cigarette when shit gets a little dicey. He's a pretty lenient boss when his mechanics are going through it, and he tends to keep it professional while on the lot, unwilling to overstep. But being older means he's world-weary, and seeing a face he remembers from the news haunting Ricky, a young man no older than his oldest son, he will try to keep tabs on him and make sure he's okay.

Dean - senior mechanic nearly a decade older than Ricky and loves to rub it in his face. So far the most tech-savviest of them all, and also the nerdiest. He's scatterbrained and a gossip, his improv game is off the charts (which makes him a hit at D&D tables), and will try to get beetles to unionize given the chance. His fashion sense is only rivaled by Jenny's, which usually leads to Roger griping at him that, yes, he has to wear his overalls when hitting the bays. Yes, Roger is well aware that he's not the one buying Dean's clothes but for the love of God, kid, think of how much you can save by not getting motor oil all over those fancy threads. Though he might hold his age over Ricky (and Ricky thinks that might just be because Dean sucks at bowling), and is a firm believer in having co-workers be co-workers and nothing more, Dean has and will extend an olive branch in the case where he is needed. In fact, he's lost at least one mobile phone because he lent it to Ricky prior to a mysterious excursion, but he's never asked questions. Dean's been around the block enough times to know when not to ask questions, and he knows when people need to stick together.

[weebsinstash]

sorry if weird question but as a lil innocent bby I never smoked weed or did any drugs and I was wondering how did you start? where did you even source it in the first place, did you just happen to know a guy who had it or is there a secret store? spill the tea for us innocent bbys pls 🙏

Not a weird question, i can understand being curious and I do mention weed in my prompts every so often

Well first and foremost I wanna be a responsible 26 yo adult and say that, really, anything can be addictive. A lot of people don't realize addiction issues can even be genetically inherited, like it isnt JUST a battle of willpower, you can be biologically wired to get addicted to stuff easier, so weed definitely isn't as harmless as some people make it out to be if you already have a predisposition for bad impulse control. There have been studies, some pretty damning, suggesting smoking raises your risk of dementia, and of course there is COPD and weed can also negatively effect your stomach, as well as making you agitated. Different strains and THC/CBD percentages in weed can really change your high, too. There has been bud that gets me really giggly and happy and other kinds that made me HELLA paranoid and kind of strung out, so, it's not always a pleasant experience. It can also totally be your biology too, I knew a guy once who couldn't smoke at all because it would make him borderline hallucinate and it was extremely stressful for him

Like really to be blatantly honest with you, I'm a daily user to the point where I can have significant amounts and won't feel as "psychedelic" as I used to. Like you definitely build a tolerance after a while, but you can take a break for a while and it'll come back. But you can definitely fall into a trap where you smoke too much "trying to feel as high as you used to", chasing the memory of the fun feeling, and it just makes you tired and then you sleep and it's wasted, whereas for example when I went to watch Spiderverse in theaters, I stayed clean for a few days, just like 4 or 5, and when I smoked again it felt aweeeesome 😩❤️ like definitely, personal restraint can mean EVERYTHING with weed, for your tolerance, for your munchies, for how much you spend, you gotta find your limits and stick with em I guess

It's definitely sort of a time and place thing. I started smoking on my 17th birthday when my sister got me into it, and she was introduced to it by a boyfriend. It really does feel like it can be a matter of where you live or knowing the right person. For example one time after my mom and I had moved, we didn't have a hookup and we smelled weed on one of the mover's jackets and asked him in a really chill way if he knew where to get a hookup (it was him lmao, he was a dealer)

But anyways, it really depends on your state or country, but even if selling outright bud and flower isn't legal, sometimes selling THC products is. Like for example I'm in Minnesota and we have it medically legal (we're actually in the middle of implementing it being legalized recreationally) and I couldn't go to a smoke shop and buy bud yet, but I CAN buy synthetic weed and thc gummies. Also really cannot stress enough that you should really never touch synthetic drugs for anything; fake weed/spice has been proven to be especially bad, like, do not cheap out thinking you'll be safer with synthetic, it is arguably significantly more dangerous than the normal stuff.

Really cannot stress enough that this is a "check your local legislature before doing this" thing, but for example these are a brand of THC gummies that I bought in a smoke shop and can personally vouch for being able to get you high (thc is the high ingredient, CBD is the medical pain relieving ingredient) and they say you can purchase them online. I really am not sure where the law stands sometimes because it's like "oh we won't let you buy weed but we'll let you buy this processed product that contains the literal ingredient in weed that gets you high". Like for example that brand is Torch and when you go to their website they're also selling THC cartridges but they're also based in California so, do they only ship in California, is it safe country wide, you really have to do your own research for where you personally are

I would say maybe avoid ordering online because I just personally think that's a big risk unless you have confirmation it's ok where you're at. If you wanted me to give you my advice, I think a "surefire" way to find a hookup is to just go to a smokeshop and start up a conversation with someone. It can literally go "oh hey what do you buy that for?" "Oh I use it for pain, I don't like smoking weed and these gummies work good" "you know, if you think bud is too harsh on your throat, I got an edible guy--" like not even joking me and my mom went to buy screens the other week and we talked to this really nice girl for like over an hour and got her number cause she had all kinds of hookups and shes the one who recommended those gummies. A lot of dealers are selling weed as a side hustle and every customer they can get is good. It's good to have a plug you're loyal with but having options can be good in case anyone becomes unreliable or falls through or you find someone who sells for cheaper.

There are also multiple ways to, you know, do the deed. There's regular bud, which typically has to be ground up or cut up, and you can roll that into a blunt or use glass, which is my personal preference, I own some glass pipes and a bong, and I should mention I use smoking screens to avoid getting ash in my mouth but deadass, the vapors coming off of lighting that metal are probably Mucho No Bueno for my lungs so I've just been rawdoggin it, and there are also pens, like thc and cbd oil, and my recent method of preference is using an edabber pen and doing wax, which is a concentrate, although you can also do dabs with a glass rig and a butane torch but I got a thing against open flame haha

I think smoking weed is probably definitely less harmful than alcohol but it's probably a case by case thing as well as purely perspective. It can be fun as hell but you definitely have to watch yourself, and also, like, munchies can be fun, but it shouldn't be undersold how powerful munchies can be. I've literally eaten myself sick before. Eating becomes an activity in of itself and you'll have a full stomach and go "well I just ate something salty, now I want a sweet"

Anyways long answer is long but, yeah, my biggest piece of advice is, look at yourself as a person and try and figure out if it's even safe for you to try it, because if you have impulse control issues, someday down the like you may end up like me where you basically want to smoke before every activity to try and make that activity more fun and you wind up smoking so much you just need a nap, and when you wake up you're smoking again 😅 moderation is key!

[mariacallous]

Several moments of crisis and drama in the Callous household today:

-I did go to Walgreens and they had some candy and other items on sale which was great, plus some other items I needed to pick up, but the Maybelline Super Stay lipstick was at like $13 a thing and I both didn't need anymore/they didn't have any of the warm/spiced shades

-I decided I was going to make the borscht today and then realized I forgot celery and carrot, which aren't really a big deal, but the sour cream?!

-I decided to go the grocery store closer to my apartment than the one I like just because it was closer and I didn't need to do any major shopping. I remembered right away why I didn't like it - it's so small but also very cramped and crowded, with aisles sometimes skewing at an angle for space.

-I got more beets (cheaper and I can just roast them or do something else with them) plus carrots and celery.

-I second-guessed myself about whether i had "enough meat" for the borscht (probably yes) but I got some more beef neck bones with meat (plus some smoked turkey necks, for snacks and to put with other stuff maybe)

-Sour cream was 2/$4 which was a lot better than I was expecting, plus I have potatoes.

-Definitely had a guy squeeze my ass while trying to make it out the store but there were a) too many and b) I was in a hurry to get out and get home. But now it feels weird.

-Made it home and put stuff away and my fridge looks almost half-way normal(ish) for once. Decided to pull the beets out for roasting in the oven (after which I'd let them cool a bit and then skin them and either hand-grate them or use my food processor).

-Found out I didn't pack/got rid of my metal baking trays at some point between Minnesota and here? And I did that thing where you keep opening stuff (like the oven) to see if they'll appear after you've already looked. Ended up using one of my pyrex/glass baking dishes.

-Prepped the beets for roasting (quick rinse and then chopping off of the greens, to save for the soup and stir-frying or whatever later) and then put them in foil with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Except...

-...my pepper seems to have gone the way of all things and all I had was two? kinds of salt (regular degular seat salt and then pink salt of some kind). Decided to forego and not worry about the pepper since I play on adding adjika seasoning and some paprika later.

-Now waiting for the oven to warm up to 375F (it's a gas oven which is weird to get back to after having used electric for so long) and I decided to check that halloween post of his again because it sends me...and realized he also included the fucking Tom Wambs reference photo with it.

That whole thing is sending me, y'all.

[weabooweedwitch]

hey how is the trip going??? i hope you're doing well and having a good break from your mom :)

It's going pretty good! We only have today, tomorrow, and then im travelling back Saturday. There's been a lot of rainy gloomy weather we weren't supposed to have so that's a bummer but we're still doing fun stuff like having sex smoking weed and all playing MTG together and tomorrow night we're going to a buffet and later tonight im trying shrooms for the first time

I'm just really gonna be lonely and sad for a while once I'm back 🥺 I'm going from being with someone who tries to force me to overcome all my anxious worrying stressful habits (in a good way) that I can cuddle and communicate with and you know the healthy sex is nice too and then I'll be going back to. My mom. And I was kind of joking because he was too that im gonna have to go back home to Minnesota and start shopping around for a, you know. A cuddle partner 🥺😏

The break from my mom is good but I think I'm mostly just gonna be really really sad to go 💔 i wish I could have stayed longer. I guess it just means I'll have to come back later. And my rushmypassport money never came back and its been like 8 business days since my voided transaction was approved so im really worried they're just. Saying the records are correct without actually giving my money back to me 🥺

[traipseartist]

May 13th - YESconsin

We reluctantly bade Henrietta and Lucas's farewell after luxuriating in a bed that wasn't an egg crate or owned by a multi-million dollar corporation. We stuffed our things back into Stacey's innards, propped Zolpa back up on the bike rack, and decided to head towards Wisconsin for the day.

When I was in high school, I had a photography teacher bravely ship his 101 class in a mini-bus from Culver, Indiana to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to culture us. He brought us to the Art Museum there, and though I was fifteen and didn't know that Milwaukee was not a glorious land full of sharp edges and thoughtful photography exhibits, I'd been fantasizing about a return ever since. So when Lewis's friend Ellery in Chicago unfortunately caught COVID a few days before our planned arrival, I quietly rejoiced in the possible pivot (Sorry Ellery, feel better!).

...howwwever upon crossing state lines my Googling revealed that the museum in question was closed Mondays and Tuesdays to visitors and we were smack dab in those dreaded early work-week hours. Exasperated I called upon my resources, and Henrietta eagerly pointed us to Frank Lloyd Wright's estate, Taliesin, off in the Wisconsin nowheres. Elaina chipped in with some very solid directives for Madison, which was only 60 miles on, and we cobbled together this Wisconsin plane as we were flying it.

The wildfire smoke trickling in from Canada cloaked much of the landscape as we wiggled out of Minnesota and into, what I was informed by Sue, (the kind lass in the Frank Lloyd Wright Trail Gift Shop) the edge of America's great inland sea. You see, the reason why Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, and the like are so flat is because once upon a time when dinosaurs bonked their heads on chandeliers and door frames everywhere (nay, nay, even earlier!) North America had a huge inner ocean and as this water found its way into the sky, the ground, and local rivers, it left behind a flat, silty landscape rich with minerals and good for farming now known as America's heartland, the Midwest. However, Wisconsin was not invited to the big-inland-sea party and maintained it's beautiful, sloping, Appalachian-like curves as sweet revenge.

Despite the heavy smoke cloak, I felt most at home in Wisconsin's rippling green blanket of hills and moody cows. Lakes and swamps and rivers threaded the landscape and just as we began to seek out ice cream we found ourselves wading into Westby, Wisconsin. After we realized literally every sign and lamp post was adorned in Norwegian, we found ourselves unable to resist the allure of the local cheese shop, manned by a kind Richard who had left Madison to study the quiet and odd Norwegian lineage of Westby. This only took Richard a few years though, and now he's moved on to life's next greatest endeavor--selling ice cream and Amish goods and ungodly amounts of cottage cheese to passing-through tourists such as ourselves.

Lewis and I dawdled a bit around tired old Westby, amused at the Norwegian themed everything and dismayed we were to miss out on Syttende Mai, or Norway's independence day festival, celebrated, as it is says on the tin, on the 17th of May. Distracted only for a moment, I slurped my cookies n' cream, took up leading Stacey ever onward, and we slithered through ancient hills towards Frank Lloyd Wright's childhood farmland and early home.

The name "Wisconsin" is actually the French's fault. The Miami--an American Indian tribe found all throughout the midwest--named the land known for angry Green Bay Packers fans and rivers of beer "Meskonsang." When transcribed by French Lewis & Clark: Marquette & Joliet, they apparently got a little too relaxed with the cursive and their successor Rene Robert Cavalier read that big loopy "M-e" as "O-u-i" and thus Ouisconsin (and its current pronunciation) was born. Oui! Yesconsin had much to offer--but I did not know one of the most prolific American architects of all time cut his teeth on this pillowish, farmy landscape. Lewis and I sheared the timing too close pointing at Norwegian antiques in a dusty shop window, so we missed the last tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright estate, but those hanging around the ticket office waiting for closing directed us to a small family chapel on the edge of the property that the tour itself doesn't normally visit--a chapel that "the young architect" designed the inside of at the wee age of 15.

Lewis and I shuffled through the wooded edge of the premises (never had I heard anyone rejoice upon seeing mosquitoes again, but Idaho has really done a number on our boy, Lewis) out towards the freestanding chapel and discussed the concept of idolization. Thematically, the thought of glorifying perfectly complex human beings had been on our minds since the beginning on the trip--our voyage dotted with homages and altars to long dead, famous men with matching Wikipedia articles of similar exultation. Why do we press to promote people beyond their own humanity?

I chewed on the thought, slapped angry blood suckers of every variety from my inviting skin, and we crawled out of the over-grown miniature trail to be dumped on the side of the road across from a small outbuilding with a cemetery already threatening to outdo the building's square footage.

The chapel was also closed for renovations, but a barefoot Randy--a contractor who'd been working on the estate long enough to be blasè about tearing up the blueprint work of our generation's architectural genius--let us gawk at the very simple but signature design of the small, two-room church house. I asked of Randy's joys and pains handling the first fabergè egg of many he worked on around here and he gave us a sweet, watery-eyed ode to peeling up the foundation of this building only to find wood so far gone he had nicknamed the action of clearing it out to replace with new joists "scooping up floor-pudding."

Lewis and I paced the little graveyard looking at the shapes and edges of the Lloyd Wrights, including Frank himself. Here he was, buried next to his very first, as was only (W)right.

We jogged back along the path that cut away from the road, back between two deciduous trees, and into the parking lot to dust off clinging ticks and make our way towards a place with food, beer, and a few less dead people in Madison, WI.

I had been to Madison when Elaina was living here, working and saving money for grad school, and the weather could not have been more pamphlet-perfect to welcome me back. We parked right in front of "The Old Fashioned" and had the Midwest dinner of our lives. Cheese Curds and beer, at least one namesaked Brandy Old-Fashioned, and a LAZY SUSAN of central Europe's greatest hits, America edition.

Lewis and I argued about debated the meaning of certain clues in our latest Cryptic lineup until the sun dipped and we realized we'd need to scramble to the campsite to see our hand a foot in front of our face before long, let alone unwieldy tent poles. We thanked Brooke the bartender who advised on sauces for cheese curds and pushed Stacey up to Pike Lake to set up camp and plead with the fireflies to reconsider their strike in the late Wisconsin Spring darkness.

Identifying Female vs Male Weed Plants—Why It's Important?

So those high levels of THC plants they found if they swap with hemp plants that they can get rid of the THC meaning transform it into C. B. D. non hallucinogenic and medically beneficial.

"The researchers examined different types of cannabis, including drug-type varieties that produce large amounts of psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Plant breeding has increased the THC level to the point where it can account for up to a quarter of a plant’s total weight. The scientists found that breeding high-THC plants with hemp-type plants can swap a few genes and make a new plant that produces high levels of CBD instead."

Though this industry is going about it in my belief. Incorrect you're not supposed to be trying to get people high.... You're supposed to be trying to help them with their issue not make them psychotic.....

See, regular cannabis use with THC has been found to create psychotic episodes and move people to schizophrenia. Why do you think I didn't use it because when I used it? I felt this uncontrollable laughing. But I realized that it was causing a change in mental state so I decided not to use it. So yes I tried it and I noticed altering psychological effects that weren't positive.... Now we can see the black community who tends to smoke a lot. And then the Jewish community and then look at schizophrenia. And you will see a close close. Correlation between high cannabis use and high levels of schizophrenia...

"Regular cannabis use predicts an increased risk of schizophrenia, and the relationship persists after controlling for confounding variables."

So do you think I just jumped to my conclusion? This is why I also got out of transporting marijuana.... First I thought okay. It helps with you know appetite for cancer patients. Then I realized there were side effects of weakening their ability to beat cancer.... Yes, it lowers energy levels and sublyour energy levels are needed to beat disease. It affects the immune system suppressing it. So yes you get more appetite but you also get a immune suppressant.... So I realized not good..... So on the surface level OKI thought this is beneficial then I watched with Corey. And Jason and many other heavy users. It's effects!

This is why things are so screwed up in Latin America. Domestic violence murder all of this linked to their use of narcotics..... You stay all the things I've ever posted while you're not exposed. But I show them a million ways where they can move away from what they're doing.... So if they wanna go ahead and continue destroying themselves, it's on them but do not destroy me as God said. If you hurt me you're dead.... So threaten me and die forever...... And you think it might be a joke, but I'm telling you. God honors his promise as he said to me. I will kill them all meaning I will send them all to hell..... So if you're making me miserable make , how do you say mistake of what's coming for you and it is not good.....

So this is why we have a problem also in the middle east with the use of heroin horribly affecting them..... Creating all kinds of psychotic people... Why do you think in these labs? They wear mask because working around it Korean them they wore gloves, they would never touch the THC. They use the tweezer and war gloves. Never trying to get it on their clothing or on them... They're intelligent but they couldn't have been way more intelligent people they suppressed their intellect.... So they started their potential.... Me, getting them away from it was the best thing I can do for them. And sometimes it caused me harm to be with them... So I sacrificed a little to try to get them to move away... They weren't winning about the things they did to me. That weren't appropriate but I thought as a sacrifice... So you think I was accepting. I wasn't accepting but I saw it as a way that I could be there form and sometimes I had to take personal harm.... So make no mistake issacrifice greatly to try to push them in the right direction... Hence his statement back to me he realized.... And wanted to repent....

May 13, 2021 — The statistics are striking. Numerous studies over decades have shown that Black Americans are diagnosed at higher rates of schizophrenia than White Americans. In a 2018 analysis of data from 52 different studies, researchers found that Black Americans are 2.4 times more likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia.

This number varies depending on the study: a 2014 review of American research found that Black Americans were three to four times more likely on average to be diagnosed with schizophrenia than white Americans (Schwartz & Blankenship, 2014); a 2012 study reported this number as over three times more likely (Eack et al., ...

Black Americans are also more likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia-paranoid subtype or schizophrenia-undifferentiated subtype. 

Some experts believe that up to 81% of people with schizophrenia inherit genes from their parents that increase their risk of the condition. However, more research needs to be done to understand Black people's genetic risk of schizophrenia. 

Some studies suggest that 

structural racism

, discrimination, and disparities in care have resulted in non-Hispanic Black individuals carrying a larger disability burden. 

It causes problems with constipation, but this means the body is getting Toxic. I tried to move him in a different direction. And yes the flowers do cause these particles to be released in the air. So yes, the fields, when you're around them, you have to be very careful. This is why this plant should only be grown indoors.... Is in a control environment where you can filter the atmosphere.... They grow this plant in large quantities. Just like THC marijuana plants, it gets into the atmosphere. The flakes are spread in the air and they're sniffed and inhaled. And they're having a psychotic effect on the people around them.... So just as I point out, other things have positive effects. This is why it's very important with vegetat. You don't put the wrong things in the wrong place.... So growing these things causes great problems... So they don't think about that. The spread in the atmosphere of these particles and literally as it grows. It can drive the world crazy... It goes into the air these particles and they spread all over. And it can literally drive the world crazy. Driving the middle east and latin america crazy....

What is the drug effect of poppy flower?

An opium “high” is very similar to a heroin “high”; users experience a euphoric rush, followed by relaxation and the relief of physical pain. What is its effect on the body? Opium inhibits muscle movement in the bowels leading to constipation. It also can dry out the mouth and mucous membranes in the nose.

However, they are some of the most addictive substances known to man. As misused drugs, they are often smoked, sniffed, or injected. The earliest reference to ..

So you can smell the plant when you're around it. And that means it's in the atmosphere, so don't tell me it's not an atmosphere. And it's going around, and these children and people are getting polluted. Their minds are getting driven psychotic.... They had no idea what they were doing to themselves. But they're doing incredible damage to their communities.... So when I talk about using them in food and as a food additive, you have to be very careful. It's just the seeds , but when you start grinding them and turning it into a powder , it is different. So there is different derivatives of the plant that can be beneficial , but there are other derivatives that can be deadly.....

So just as I showed you with the hemp and the marijuana plant.... So you can move it to something safe. But you need to understand this and cross breed it correctly. But in general, until you make it safe. You need to do this under a controlled environment. In a greenhouse, and you cannot let the air out of the greenhouse. It must be filtered and any of these particles removed and anyone working. There must wear a clean suit... Yes they must wear a clean suit or they're going to have unbelievable psychotic episodes.....

So make sure you understand when you're using these things. This is why I said people in the medical field and scientists are the ones that should be doing these things, not the general public. They can be investors , but you need the specialist handling the stuff that know what they do.... So unless you're going to get these types of education , then you can't be in the production of the you can't be growing it on the farm.... This is the problem with it. You have people who have no idea what the f*** you're doing and you know what's gonna happen to them. They're going to get destroyed and they're going to destroy their families and friends.... So it's one thing to be a silent partner and investor it's another thing to do act of production. These things shouldn't be grown at home. Now you can grow aloe plants. Though there is some things that should be approved, but they need to do this through zoning. And do you know when they started legalizing marijuana, there was a good shot on the radio with 2 former D. A agents that did chemical research on the plant and consumption and said it impaired academic learning.... So they said yeah, we're retarded in that, but we wanted to drill down and try to educate people. And I think they did do a book.... But they were telling people why they thought they were right about doing this enforcement. And they fought this prove that they were doing the right thing to save the community.... So these 2 former agents went down and looked at. Did my life work benefit society or did my life work damage? D society and they did the research and found out that and they were open to the negative. They found out that their work was beneficial and by preventing people from using this controlled substance. They were helping people have a better life... But these are good Christian people. These are just good people then but they were christian... And so they wanted to know was I all wrong and I need to make changes meaning go back and change things in the system with the DEA.... There's a bible quote about self reflection....

Here is the point in Genesis genesis. The formation of Mankind Bible is setting these principles for Mankind so Mankind can go forward. This is why genesis is so important.... It is the formation of proper society...

Galatians 6:3-4 — “If a person thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let every person prove their own work, and then he can take pride in himself alone, without comparing himself to someone else.” It isn't healthy to compare ourselves to other people.Jan 13, 2023

Walt Lindahl Fundraiser

It is with a Heavy Heart that we are hosting our very first Merch Fundraiser for Fire Fighter and Nurse, Walt Lindahl Doctors believe his irreversible lung scarring is connected to his work as a firefighter. Writing in a letter: "It stands to reason that inhalation of hazardous materials and smoke over his career could have caused this condition.

A firefighter who's spent more than a decade helping others is facing a battle of his own. Walt Lindahl's ability to breathe has continued to worsen over the last two years. It's gotten to the point where doctors at Mayo Clinic are working to save the 53-year-old's life. As Walt is hanging on, his life dependent upon a double lung transplant, his medical and financial burdens continue to pile up.

All Profits gained through this fundraiser will go directly to Walt's wife Amy, to cover the medical and financial needs they have incurred. To purchase items from our store go here https://www.wondersbywomen.com/shop/fundraiser/team-walt

OUR ENVIRONMENT IS OUR FUTURE, STOP POLLUTING OUR AIR!

There are many small, but critical sources of air pollution in our homes and neighborhoods. Such sources — vehicles, construction equipment, lawn mowers, dry cleaners, backyard fires, and auto-body shops — are located where we live and work. Total emissions from these smaller but widespread sources are significantly greater than all the industrial sources in the state combined.

To prevent pollution from these sources, the MPCA provides education, guidance, and incentives for reducing air pollution. We have programs for businesses, cities, nonprofits, and communities that address a range of environmental problems, including air quality.

Drive your car less. Vehicle exhaust is a major source of air pollution in Minnesota. Carpool. Bike. Bus. Telecommute. Electric vehicles. How could you burn less fuel?

Keep your car in good repair. Fix exhaust and oxygen sensor problems ASAP. Check your tire pressure monthly; under-inflated tires have been shown to lower gas mileage, particularly at lower speed.

Turn off your engine. An idling engine creates a hot spot of pollution. Buses and big trucks produce particularly unhealthy exhaust. Parents and teachers can help their schools and daycares develop and implement no-idling policies.

Don't burn your garbage. Burning your household garbage is dangerous to your health and our environment, and generally against the law in Minnesota. If you're still using a burn barrel, wood stove, or fire-pit for your trash, contact your county about arranging for trash hauling services.

Limit backyards fire in the city. Smoke from backyard fires can cause unhealthy conditions for hundreds of people, especially during stagnant weather conditions. Since cities have elevated levels of pollution compared to rural areas, urban fires are more of a nuisance to people with asthma and other lung conditions. If you do have a campfire:

Keep fires brief and small — 3 feet across or less.

Burn only dry fire wood. In the Twin Cities it is illegal to burn any waste in a fire, even yard waste.

Never start campfires during an air quality alert. Sign up for texts or emails about elevated air pollution levels.

Plant and care for trees. Trees filter pollutants and absorb carbon dioxide. Trees also release oxygen into the atmosphere and help cool our homes.

Switch to electric or hand-powered lawn equipment. Gas-powered engines like those on lawnmowers and leaf or snow blowers often lack pollution control devices. An hour running a lawn mower can produce nearly the same amount of pollution as a 100-mile car trip! Use hand-powered or electric lawn care equipment instead.

Use less energy. Choose efficient appliances and heating systems. Get an energy audit and follow the advice. Turn off electrical stuff you are not using. It all adds up.
