Unless your tolerance break is like 6 weeks plus and you also plan on being buzzed all day every day that's not going to be an issue. The real concern is you might develop a taste for it, and that's going to apply to just about anything that even remotely substitutes for THC. Heavy exercise plus eating unhealthy food plus media binge

I'm not sure how long a panic attack lasts.. if you are willing to wait a half hour or so gabapentinoids would probably be a good alternative to benzos, doctors have yet to catch on to how addictive they are and give them out like candy. The rc benzos are still extremely good despite the DEAs efforts, brominated and florinated ones are very much available in the US. If that's too scary I do believe you'll get a script if you're persistent enough and willing to shop around for doctors, may be a long haul project but you could also get lucky.

It's been a while but I want to say this is not a topological concept. Topologically the band with no twist and with a full twist are both just a disc with a hole, they're homeomorphic meaning topological tools can't tell the difference between them. A half twist (Mobius strip) is distinct though..

Still the argument I used is partly topological, cutting things apart and glueing them back together is very much of the subject. Anyway I believe there are math people on the sub who cracked a book more recently than 12 years ago, please chime in!

Edit: And now I'm realizing this is almost certainly wrong, for example knots are just circles no matter how convoluted but you can still study them with topolgy by looking at their complement, which would be the whole of 3d space but with the knot cut out, probably you can do the same with these bands. So correct answer would have been: I don't know

Yes, odd numbers of loops can always be made to work. If you glue a strip of paper so it makes a loop with a single turn you can twist it so it wraps around twice to lie flat. Notice that when you use a regular loop and pinch it you've basically recreated that scenario, you could glue it together at the pinch and cut off one side (see picture) and you'd just have a single loop with one twist, and you could repeat that process any number of times, each new twist crosses over in the opposite direction, undoing the twist previously created.

From when the movie came out to four days ago I'd been unable to muster the motivation to rewatch deadwood for the first time but I found the time to try and watch every Star Trek show I haven't seen, fucking idiot!

This isn't likely the cause of your issue, think it was a previous version of windows, but a few years back Microsoft patched a bug that caused checking for updates to take exponential time in the # of updates to check, causing some previously offline PCs to literally just grind until theyre turned off or the sun expands to engulf the inner planets. Anyway bad performance on not freshly minted installations of windows is I can only assume a feature to them

I comfort myself with the fact that eternal torture is impossible because the number of distinct quantum states your brain can have, given that it can only occupy a finite volume is, while very large, technically finite. Eventually the torture will just loop around to the beginning so it's not really an eternity. The devil could try to just continually expand your brain so that you can experience more intricate types of pain but eventually your head will grow so large that it collapses into a black hole. They could try to make it very long and thin rather than roughly spherical to avoid this, but eventually the expansion of the universe will causally disconnect one half from the other. centrist

There wasn't much going on in the world, we passed the time posting about a subreddit about a podcast about the 2016 us election

We merely tried to buy their land, kick off the freeloaders and put a state there, and they attacked us! Mom and dad said we could put a state there, said we could if we shared, do you know there wasn't even one there before! And the people we were trying to move didn't even own the land they were living on, freeloaders, what's the harm I ask? It's just the Arab disposition, they won't even negotiate when we tell them nicely they're no longer allowed to be in their homes, totally adversarial, and this same behavior you see it to this very day, you merely build a large wall around them, what do they do, attack.

Yeah I'm only 44 minutes in this is painful why am I going watch the whole thing
