Being totally ignorant of the site myself, the use case you mentioned was roughly how I had it described to me by my wife and her friends a few years ago: They use it as a 'scrapbook' for fashion/craft etc. ideas. -- not nece

Fair enough... Then I'll stick to my original examples of Col. Bill Reeder, and Capt. Charlie Plumb. Check out their stories on the podcast: Charlie plumb: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XgwpDnalZE Bill reeder: http

As others have stated, the biggest thing is to stop beating yourself up - stop calling yourself damaged. Also, you need to start exercising - it is the only thing for me personally that will keep "the darkness" at bay. The researc

To be clear, the author's usage of "flaking" refers to people who "flake out" - or frequently renege or "bail out" of plans they have made with other people. In my opinion - people who flake have a lack of

Think of a scenario where certain government employees have accounts on some Private sector service: Maybe a Grindr or Tinder -- if they can work to obtain any sort of compromising information from those services - they can then use it to m

I made no such comparisons: I merely stated a fact to support the point re: Authoritarianism.

Yeah. Totally incorrect: I say it all the time when I am driving my kids around -- or when idiot teenagers rip through my neighborhood where my kids are playing at 35-45 mph (1).. before kids? - Maybe not. (1) - It's official: I am now

Just to support your point: The govt. also decided to seize everyone's firearms in 1996.

I think it is aimed at anywhere in the world where we would need to put a strike package into a non-permissive environment. People are catching on quickly to the fact that if they can keep our air assets out - they can keep America from pro

RE: "Shakey ground legally" Are you talking about your particular case where a medical issue impacts your ability to work but isn't a true disability? Because otherwise, for a true disability - employers MUST comply with the

In-spite-of better ideas was my point - they were unable to improvise and adapt to a dynamic situation, and fell back on frontal assaults: A reference - not the one i mentioned - which was a firsthand anecdote from a veteran of the Pacific

It's not really realistic to bring this into a large, pre-existing application (REST API) from our experience - which is admittedly limited. Re-building the app around django cms would be the way to go - but being able to do this from

Totally anecdotal. My point is that I think that addiction in general runs deeper than we currently understand and that we shouldn't underestimate the potential for people to become dependent on something newly available just because i

Great point and I concur: The people I know who struggle with this are not CBD users - so yes let's keep those two things separate in this discussion for sure.
