“Taking LSD was a profound experience, one of the most important things in my life. LSD shows you that there’s another side to the coin, and you can’t remember it when it wears off, but you know it. It reinforced my sense of what was important—creating great things instead of making money, putting things back into the stream of history and of human consciousness as much as I could.” -Steve Jobs The older I get, the more I'm inclined to believe most people would be better off experimenting with hallucinogens than with religion. Ha! The last time I spoke to Jesus was during my only bad acid trip. I was 15 years old and worried that I would never come down! I stopped believing when I was nine, but that stuff they grind into you as a young child has a way of sticking in your head. Hey, c'mon. If people are willing to talk about how LSD rewires your brain can we do it in its own thread? It's interesting stuff. Plus, and no offense to Rob meant here, but I think the way LSD affects your mind would make you less prone towards religion. Depends on the tab, right? Purple Owsley isn't Orange Sunshine, so they say. Or the amount of strychnine. Largely an urban myth. I once read a study from a law enforcement organization of some sort that found confiscated LSD to consistently be very, very pure (though not necessarily very, very high potency), something of an anomaly among street drugs. It makes sense. The dose is too small in volume to be easily visible. If someone wanted to rip people off, they could just sell them sugar cubes/undosed tabs, and be gone before anyone was the wiser. A half dose would look the same as a full dose, so there would be no reason to use an adulterant to cut it down. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

Ex-Trump lawyer Cohen likely to cooperate as his attorneys leave case "As attorneys for Michael Cohen rush to meet Judge Kimba Wood’s Friday deadline to complete a privilege review of over 3.7 million documents seized in the April 9 raids of Cohen’s New York properties and law office, a source representing this matter has disclosed to ABC News that the law firm handling the case for Cohen is not expected to represent him going forward. "To date, Cohen has been represented by Stephen Ryan and Todd Harrison of the Washington and New York firm, McDermott, Will & Emery LLP. "No replacement counsel has been identified as of this time. "Cohen, now with no legal representation, is likely to cooperate with federal prosecutors in New York, sources said. This development, which is believed to be imminent, will likely hit the White House, family members, staffers and counsels hard." Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour!

That looks like a bunch of victim blaming by some gun-nut unwilling to consider gun violence objectively. That's a pretty low resolution list but put it this way, it's also saying that there's no need to own a firearm as long as you follow those steps. It's analogous to the common claim of many smokers that if non-smokers want top breathe clean air, they should feel free to stay home. It's also factually inaccurate, but that's nothing new for gun-nut rhetoric. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

But I was thinking about the people who can't commit suicide. What keeps them from it? I believe there exists an element of extraordinary courage and willpower within a suicide that enables them to overcome that strongest of instincts. Not everybody has it in them. For some, certain death is the absolute worst option, no matter what. I don't lump all suicides together. Some are tragedies; some are triumphs. Seldom could I reasonably consider any of them acts of selfishness. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

Through early morning fog I see Visions of the things to be, The pains that are withheld for me. I realize, and I can see That suicide is painless. It brings on many changes, And I can take or leave it if I please. I try to find a way to make All our little joys relate Without that ever-present hate, But now I know that it's too late. The game of life is hard to play I'm gonna lose it anyway The losing card I'll someday lay So this is all I have to say: The only way to win is cheat And lay it down before I'm beat, And to another give my seat For that's the only painless feat. The sword of time will pierce our skins It doesn't hurt when it begins But as it works its way on in The pain grows stronger...watch it grin. A brave man once requested me To answer questions that are key. Is it to be or not to be? And I replied, "Oh, why ask me? "'Cause suicide is painless. It brings on many changes, And I can take or leave it if I please. "… and you can do the same thing if you please."

I'm sure we can check your post history and find all of the times when you've defended Clinton from all of the baseless accusations from the right. Unless, of course, you're practicing hypocrisy. Mueller's investigation, on the other hand, has already resulted in multiple indictments and guilty pleas, so cannot be credibly claimed to be a witch hunt, at least not without extraordinary evidence supporting such a claim.

He didn't claim they didn't work. He said that further increases would likely result in diminishing returns. In other words, he's claiming that we cannot expect an increase in jail time from, for example, 12 months to 23 months, to decrease DUI rates by the same magnitude as did increasing jail time from 30 days to 1 year, even though the increased time is identical, 11 months.

You really don't understand how the federal government works, do you? Unfortunately I do! And that's the biggest part of the problem. They're not neutral, they're led by the left and they're going to die by being left. Are you not aware that the right presently controls all three branches of the federal government? It's very difficult to reconcile your belief that the government are led by the left with reality, impossible even. Are you aware that this all happened during the Obama Administration? It also happened at a state level where the Democrats control everything that's going on out there? Nice try to try and redirect but you're way off base!
