    It's British slang for a pedophile that stands for "Not on normal courtyard exercise". Meaning if they are in prison, they are not sent to exercise with the others as they are at high risk of being beat up.

    MPs are guaranteed a pension after spending 6 years in service as an elected MP.

    He entered the parliament at age 25, ensuring him a pension since the age of 31. Although he still has to be 55 to actually start collecting it. Considering how long he has been an MP, he's probably looking at pulling in at least 100K/yr from age 55 onward.

    This is what baffles me about these papers. Assuming the authors are actually real people, these AI-generated mistakes in publications should be pretty easy to catch and edit.

    It does make you wonder how many people are successfully putting AI-generated garbage out there if they're careful enough to remove obviously AI-generated sentences.

    Pareidolia is the tendency to see faces in random patterns. Our brains are just kind of wired to recognize facial patterns. It doesn't mean you have schizophrenia, necessarily.

    Not sure about BPA, but we're closer to knowing what BPA does than what BPS does. We just replaced a somewhat studied plasticizer for an even less studied and understood one. Plasticizers never went away.

    Canada has drug ads, but with special rules. You can either mention the drug name or its indication, but not both.

    So you'll get ads that say stuff like "Ozempic - ask your doctor if it's right for you" with people happily eating in a coffeeshop. But they won't tell you what Ozempic is supposed to do.

    The somniferum variety comes in many different colours, I believe typically the pink and purple varieties are well known to be potent. Some others are not so potent.

    I used to make butter with it in the past, now I mostly compost it. Making butter is a stinky process lol. I like your olive oil idea though, less smell for sure.

    I used to eat the equivalent of like 7-10g of vaped herb edibles before transatlantic flights and that was fantastic, slept right from takeoff and woke up touching down in my destination lol.

    Since I can't seem to post on the drug gardening community I'll drop this here. Really digging the petal shapes on this one. Bonus trichocereus bridgesii in the background.

    Good to know, thanks for the info! Already learning stuff on the new drugs community haha.

    I hope your doc gives you something that will help with the pain highs. I haven't dealt with it myself but I did watch my dad go through lots of chronic pain so I know how debilitating it can be. Seems like she's on your side at least, and in it to help you :)

    Good luck!! Here's to many nice hikes in the future.

    Is it possible he just went pushed himself too far?

    Seems like in my experience (myself included) most people have a tendency to explore psychedelics heavily once they start and then they tend to slow down. But I guess being that he was making money off of taking drugs and making videos about it that he felt forced to continue. I haven't watched his videos in many years now..

  • Hey, So I've been working on recording a song and I am trying to get a solo tone similar to the kind of long, sustained, gain-y yet clean sound that The War on Drugs tends to use. Any suggestions? I'm mostly recording direct input through my pedal board into a tascam sound card. I've fiddled around with my overdrive pedal (Soul Food) but the tone gets too distorted and muddy to give that clean sustain. Is it time to get a sustain pedal? Apologies in advance if what I'm asking about gear doesn't make much sense..
