You don’t know me.

I didn’t intend to imply it is the case for everyone, I was just saying that has been the experience for me. Results vary.

Nearly every medication changes your cognition—even OTC antihistamines. People should make the decisions that are best for them—know thyself.

One last time, I don’t endorse this style of living for everyone, but it works for me, and you might be surprised at the sheer number of people who operate vehicles while stoned safely.

Here’s my anicdotal account:

I have driven high more hours than I have driven sober. I have only ever gotten a ticket or gotten in an accident when completely sober. Despite the assumptions, so far the data points towards me being a safer driver while high on a normal amount of weed.

I feel so young right now—I know what it means.

Of course we do, ‘cause nukes. /s

Yeah, but they (presumably) already paid for the bread. The issue is that the worker in the family is on the MTA.

I love that song. I always assumed she couldn’t get a dime because the breadwinner was now trapped on the MTA.

I shudder to think what happened to them when the sandwiches finally ran out.

In any case, I’m willing to put it in my mouth.

Or, just hear me out—you could throw the whole thing away and try to never think about the maggots again.

But…why did she do it?

As somebody who goes to Juarez several times per week and has also traveled extensively throughout Mexico, cartel violence typically does not reach the average tourist, just like how people who go to New York are unlikely to actually see the mob. I have experienced more hassle from police than gangs, and even that is usually a cursory questioning and pocket check for drugs.

15 years ago, there were some cities that were in the middle of organized crime wars, and sometimes things spilled over into public where civilians could get hurt. This created a lot of heat for the cartels, and more recently they have mostly been operating under the radar or in remote neighborhoods again.

The bigger risk than violence is kidnapping, but even that doesn’t tend to get aimed at the tourist population due to the international backlash it would cause.

If you keep your wits about you, travel in Ubers that you order rather than unmarked cabs, and don’t accept drinks from strangers, then Mexico can be a wonderful adventure. The Mexican people have been mostly extremely good to me, and I refuse to cut them off as dangerous just because the news tries to tell me so.

Hello Lemmy!

I have moved to a walkable area and no longer need to have my car keys on me all the time. My landlord has put in a crappy 4 digit combination style door lock, but said I could change it.

What is the best kind of keyless door lock that I can use instead? Ideally one with decent enough security to be as good or better than a key?

Thanks for your input!
