Canadian, so it's not all that different, but why. can. I. buy. liquor. in. a. PHARMACY?

Don't know if this is just a California thing, but it was weird as fuck. What's even weirder, in light of this, is they didn't go whole hog and sell cigarettes too. 'Cause helf.

Side story: Went into a Dollar General and bought a can of Sapporo. Ok, not so weird, it's functionally a super basic grocery store with a bunch of other cheap goods. Guy at the counter said, "Oh yeah, they make this beer in some place very far away". Looked at the can - I'm pretty sure he meant Japan, not Guelph, ON Canada.

He wasn't wrong but I did chuckle.

Someone got really drunk and was in the bathroom willing to take all comers at a work function.

It was a shame, I liked working with them.

Naturopaths.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure there's folks doing sane, evidence-based care in this area. But I've seen so much bullshit from practitioners, ranging from the grossly unethical to the blatantly dangerous, that I find them hard to trust about anything as a group.

Besides, we already have health professionals that can provide good, evidence-based care (issues like ego v. evidence/new findings to improve care notwithstanding - but there's crappy people in all fields) - we call them doctors and nurse practitioners. And we need more of those.

Man, ever since the early 2010s I've thought about Ender's Game a LOT - and it's always this part of the book, never the zero-g laser tag or genocide-by-arcade-machine parts.

Break falls are the only skill I've kept from my martial arts training, but it's literally the most useful one.

"Hey Al, they're remastering our series." "WHAT?"

These folks are doing fantastic work. If you're a Canuck, find the Reboot Rewind folks on your social media of choice, they're going around doing screenings of their doc (and some of the D1 footage I think) in Canadian cities.

She has a husband, you know...

This is close enough. Thank you!

I would pay good money for an alternate dub track of KOTH by a voiceover cast with strong Japanese accents, reading Japanglish approximations of the original script with same inflections they'd use if it was a standard anime.

Boomhauer alone would be a fucking blast.

  1. Pull down the packaging to expose the seal.
  2. If there's a little 'extra' plastic bit attached to the ziplock, pull this and the other side. Using your thumbnail to loosen the seal while doing this can help.
  3. Take a big whiff from the bag, then put your weed in a mason jar with a moisture pak like a decent human being.
  4. Save the bag and bring it back to the dispo if they take empty packaging. It's probably still going into a landfill, but at least you can say you tried.

Alternatively, grab a knife or some scissors and skip to step 3.

Am middle-aged(ish) nerd, can confirm this would work.

?

 

For those who might ask "What does that even mean?", this is what I'm reading that triggered the question: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/transformative-experience/

Recent can mean the most recent you can remember, even if it was years ago. Interested in what y'all might say.

 

Or, less provocatively, are there any cocktails you like that use saline?

Final edit: Has nothing to do with specific terms used, this person is correct. Language setting related problem. https://sh.itjust.works/comment/173272

First Edit: Damn, seems to be working fine now. Wonder if it was community-level wherever I tried to post (don't know if language filters can be implemented at that level. Can't remember what I tried to reply to), or if TheDude is updating some stuff and I happened to post at just the wrong time? Or maybe it was a post from another instance?

Second edit: Ahhh, interesting. So it was a reply to https://kbin.social/m/main@sh.itjust.works/p/435069. And the offending word at least seems to be 'Beehaw'. Anyone have any insight re: what's happening here for a mostly Lemmy illiterate sh.it.head?

Original comment:

Just had a weird experience trying to reply to a post. Is there a language filter now? I used a very soft cuss often spoken in normal discourse (starts with a d, ends with an n, 4 letters) and got an error.

Is someone able to explain the rationale? Maybe it's just me but casual cussing is a) pretty much my default mode, and b) from the outside doesn't seem like a real problem that needs to be addressed. People cuss on the internet. Now, personally not opposed to a filter for clearly derogatory terms (you know what they are, don't @ me), but my recent experience seems a little extreme.

 

Edit: You know what's nice? The ability to edit post titles.
