And she makes me get off my butt a few times a day to go for walks. That photo is the look I get when I’m 10 minutes late with the leash.

Plus, you have a sounding board that actual pays attention to you. They may not understand a word of what you say, but they are usually quite interested in the conversation. You also get the added peace of mind of not becoming that raving lunatic talking to themselves.

Some good suggestions. I struggled with this a bit post-divorce. One other thing that helped me is finding something that actually depended on me. I know this isn’t for everyone, but in addition to the companionship, the sense of responsibility helped.

Only chimpanzees can bang on the bongos.

The reason is because it's hilarious

You made me look at something WHite Stripes today :( that's 2x I've gotten Striped ... on a Monday!

I laughed really hard at the dog licking the bongoes before playing them for some reason

I'd be less concerned about my Wi-Fi reception and more concerned about that tentacled one-eyed monster in my house.

The sobbing never stops... I am still finding myself crying from time to time (less often now) but every so often Ill weep uncontrollably for a little while and my GF will know whats wrong. Sometimes its when Im driving home or driving to work. It sucks. Pot was not in the equation for me when he was dying but after i…

#1, thank you for your kind words...and yes Im freakin happy hunter is on the Giants because this guy is seriously saving our seasons every year. (hopefully he rebounds from that wrist break ASAP)

#2, Cancer, lets talk about how your mom was going through it and how you and your family handled it. Pretty fucking rough…

yeah, but seriously, it's unlikely pot will cure cancer. It could be a hell of a treatment, but it's also holistic and something most people can grow themselves, so yeah Pfeizer will probably not be making any money off it, which sucks for research prospective.

YES! Even if it's just POSSIBLE that it could work, why wouldn't we just try to find out and maybe help people? Just because we're still in "reefer madness" mentality from the 40s or something?

My brothers long time partner was the first pot user I saw with an actual need. (he passed away from leukemia shortly after). And my father passed away from Colon cancer, but it was so far progressed that he basically went to Chemo, Radiation, Surgery, Colostomy Bag (which, if you know anyone with one, is such a rough…

It's really amazing in terms of that. I think it does a lot of little things that help in situations like that. It helps with the depression that can sometimes accompany illness. It definitely helps with appetite. The few studies that have been indicate there might a link between marijuana and a decrease in cancer…

I recently wrapped up extensive diagnostic testing for rheumatoid conditions and all kinds of stuff, only to be told that I have fibromyalgia, a severe vitamin D deficiency, and I've suffered from depression and anxiety as a result of my pain and lack of sleep from said pain for nearly 10 years.

The medications that I…

I would do a little research and find a good dispensary and go in and tell them exactly what you just said. I would probably recommend edibles, which I would assume a reputable dispensary would have available in variable potency, and a staff that can instruct use.
The other method would be either getting a pre-rolled…

What could it possibly do that puts other people in danger? The most dangerous drug for other people is alcohol because it leads to violence and antisocial behavior. The only threat that cannabis has is to cheetos.

I live in CO so it's currently legal here for me to just go to a shop and buy.

I don't even think they need that much money. The test would be something simple like "Does this box of Taco Bell Doritos Tacos Locos look appetizing to you?"

I'd love if the Gov't would take just 10% of the money they spend trying to enforce the zero policy rule and spend that on finding a way to do an immediate test for testing drivers. This way you can legalize for responsible use and still leave this as a controlled substance while driving a vehicle, just like alcohol.
