    Kings early books are seminal and iconic. Carrie, Salem's Lot, The Shining, Pet Semetary and Misery are all brilliant and some of the most influential books in modern fiction.

    ‘Right to Repair for Your Body’: The Rise of DIY, Pirated Medicine
  • SamuraiBeandog SamuraiBeandog Now 100%

    I actually think this is bringing an enormous amount of attention to the issue, especially once this group goes to court/jail for it. Where else should this energy be spent? This isn't a new issue and it's only got worse over time. I think extreme measures are warranted.

    ‘Right to Repair for Your Body’: The Rise of DIY, Pirated Medicine

    This movement isn't suggesting we do away with regulation. It is providing options for people who literally have NO access to life changing medication because of the for-profit pharmaceutical industry.

  • (Elden Ring)Black Steel Greathammer is incredible.
  • SamuraiBeandog SamuraiBeandog Now 100%

    Not sure if it got nerfed, I haven't played in a while. The throwing hammer didn't have great range but usually enough to throw it from outside of an enemy's aggro range. And the best thing about it was that with a fully charged throw it would knock down a lot of enemies, it was amazing to initiate combat with a knockdown from range and then run in and smash them.

  • 42 Years old and look like Homer Simpson. Should I try skateboarding and, if I do, how long should I try before deciding whether or not to give up?
  • SamuraiBeandog SamuraiBeandog Now 100%

    It actually has a really long learning curve, if you didn't skate as a kid it will take you a long time to even be comfortable rolling around, let alone doing anything more. Kids have an infinite amount of time to practice and can take their boards with them basically everywhere, adults don't have the same luxury.

    And the other part is, you will get injured. You might get lucky and be fine, or you might get unlucky and fuck your knee or ankle or wrist or collarbone for months or life.

    It's a young person's hobby. If you're really keen then go for it, but if its an idle curiosity I think there are other things that you'd find more satisfying.

    I ran dual greathammers with this and the smith's hammer that you can throw. One of the most fun builds I've ever played, insane damage and surprisingly fast for such a heavy build.

  • I've been vaping weed more and more, and earlier and earlier in the day. It's completely counteracting the benefits of my Adderral
  • SamuraiBeandog SamuraiBeandog Now 93%

    In terms of impacting your life, weed is an addictive drug like meth or coke. It doesn't have the physical addictive impact of those drugs (i.e. you don't go into physical withdrawals) but it can have large impacts on your psychology and day to day to life. For a lot of people it is a massive demotivator and will prevent you from achieving the things you want out of life.

    Treat it like an addictive drug. You have a problem, take strong actions to treat it. The good news is that it is much easier to get off than other drugs that have a physical addiction. If you get through 2 or 3 days without smoking the strong urge to smoke should fade. Get rid of your weed, don't have any in the house when you're trying to stop. Tell your friends that smoke that you're trying to stop and not to give you any or smoke around you. Once you've gone a a few days without smoking you'll be shocked how much less the urge is there. Go without for 2 weeks before you even think about smoking again, just to prove to yourself that you can do it.

    But it's very easy to start again, so make some rules around when you allow yourself to smoke. Only use it as a reward for getting stuff done that day. Never smoke 2 days in a row. Every time you go to smoke, tell yourself out loud "I will not achieve any of my goals today".

  • What advice would you give to people in their 20s?
  • SamuraiBeandog SamuraiBeandog Now 100%

    lol you're the one who came in swinging with "for all I know!" "you could be lying!" as soon as I pressed you on a point. That's the definition of a bad faith argument, you're not acctually trying to engage with points of discussion you're just trying to "win" the conversation.

    lol do you always assume anyone who disagrees with you is acting in bad faith? Whst a convenient way to shield yourself from uncomfortable truths.

    No wonder you're desperate to lock someone into a relationship with you asap, you sound nuts.
