Looks like Trump has had a strong rebound after tanking from Iowa.
Trump vs Sanders would be way cool, purely in terms of entertainment. Hillary definitely has a chance of imploding due to multiple factors, potential bombs and fuckups. Seems there's really no other serious candidates among the Democrats other than Hillary and Sanders at this point, which is nice, increases he odds of an interesting outcome. 20% is surprisingly good considering who Sanders is, his positions and background, and that he's going against Hillary. A much more realistic chance than Ron Paul ever had.
I realized what a joke the political process was back in '08, understood it enough that I recognized what a waste of time closely following it was, that it's really good for nothing other than entertainment, social signalling, and something to talk about with other people if you're into that, to give the illusion of intelligence and knowledge for many; unless you're planning to make decisions, for personal benefit, or are involved in a career where predictions are important, a fairly thorough understanding of the impact candidates wold have.
I care about the fundamentals, not trends.

You're fucked and most of you probably deserve it.
Accept it and move on."

2016-02-10 at 4:35 AM UTCSaid from the beginning that Hillary won the election when Trump decided to run. Sanders just isn't viable in 2016, even if he's done a lot better than you would think a self described socialist could in the US, he's a meme. He might have had a chance if he survived the primaries but he won't. Trump is, of course, the same thing in reverse but the difference is 2012 made it clear how vulnerable the GoP is to having their primary turned into an irredeemable shitshow that haunts whoever happens to comes out on top. It doesn't matter who wins the republican primaries at this point, Cruz and Trump are both fucked.

2016-02-10 at 4:41 AM UTCRubio is kinda cute though, affable although maybe only because he's young. If you removed policy from the consideration I'd vote for him. Well, I'd shill for him on the internet at least. I wouldn't actually vote in a presidential election.
-
2016-02-10 at 5:01 AM UTCStill, imagine how fucking funny the debates and campaigns between Hillary and Trump are going to be. This is going to be comedic gold, at least for the non-plebs that have realized what a joke it is and aren't afraid to enjoy the ride down.

2016-02-10 at 6:06 AM UTCHTS/phoenix/lucidite mentioned some things about wanting to improve his voice (gender transitioning), which led me to this because I was curious if there were any pharmaceutical/technological/surgical options available.

RisiR, can you snort gabbapentin? Not the whole pill obviously, it's way too huge , but how about a small portion of it? I just like snorting and slamming stuff lol. And slamming is kind of out of the question with gabbapentin but what's your opinion on snorting it?
Too much powder, no benefit. I don't think it will get you higher and snorting pills always kinda sucks because of the other stuff. I wouldn't do it. I liked snorting Picamillon, another GABA drug but it's apperantly scheduled in the US now which is weird because it's mild as shit. -

Valproic acid.
I'm busy right now but did you post yesterday that you wouldn't recommend Valproate in my case? What changed your mind? I'm pretty sure you did recommend it to me before. -
2016-02-10 at 8:08 AM UTCI'm not sure if I recommended it specifically for you. My idea was to use it to restore neuroplasticity to a juvenile state, possibly reopen critical periods of development, or at least significantly increase it, to augment therapy. It's highly experimental, and best suited for extreme cases like myself.
So, for example, I've now spent equal periods, half of my life in a withdrawn and emotionally closed off state without personal relationships, to the point where I didn't even really have a family, driven to an extreme point by being undiagnosed and untreated on the autism spectrum (Asperger's). If, for example, I developed friendships, events with positive social situations/interaction, or even a romantic relationship, it would be ideal to take VA before them in order to greatly accelerate recovery and adaption. Sort of like how your first love or true friendship, gaining a close circle of friends, can change you and set the stage for the rest of your life, which normally occurs when young and your brain is still developing significantly, in a critical period and much more plastic; in my case this would be occurring at a much later period than normal. -
2016-02-10 at 8:14 AM UTCI'll talk to you later. Gotta go.
-
2016-02-10 at 12:55 PM UTCValproate is the opposite of a "smart drug" really, also can cause subclinical encephalopathy, as well as thin the parietal lobe. Would not take. And something like 10% of people who take it lose their hair.
-
2016-02-10 at 1:18 PM UTCAre you bullshitting? I haven't done any research yet. I'm not dead set on anything. I don't have a plan, a regimen yet. Nothing.
I also don't have clinical supervision. It will be total self-medication. -
2016-02-11 at 6:24 PM UTCHAHAHAHA, who needs Casper when you have access to Chinese superlabs that have moved into schedule 1 and 2 drugs.
We're in business, baby.
Although, if anyone wants to participate in angel investing, it would be most welcome. I've had multiple people offer to buy me escorts for around $400. This would be similar, helping me get my life together after being in a spiral of depression and isolation for over a decade, not having had any personal relationships or meaningful human experience in my life, no family or relatives, no friends, acquaintances, coworkers, etc. Particularly these last five years I've been extremely isolated, like someone in solitary confinement, the last two at the maximum level of severe depression, to the point where I couldn't function and seriously became suicidal, saved only by extreme self-medication, being my own doctor, psychiatrist, and therapist. I went about two years without speaking to anyone except for short words like "debit" or "thanks", sometimes only going out once a month for necessities. I'm poor, got to the point where I actually needed disability after my mental breakdown and any plans I had fell apart, and literally have no one, I'm starting, rebuilding myself, from almost nothing. -
2016-02-11 at 7:07 PM UTCYO, What the fuck? I can't even post a thread *angry face* I tried to post in bitch and moan so I could bitch and moan about these awful bitches in my group project. ugh....one of them tried to say the coin toss never happened at the Democratic caucus and I when I showed her video footage she was like "oh well, it didn't happen the way people are saying it happened" God I fucking hate my group so much. It's these 3 girls that are just awful. One ain't that bad but she's condensing af. I fucking hate group projects. Everything would be better if I could just do it myself.

2016-02-11 at 9:59 PM UTCAt the minimum 2x profit, 4x being reasonable for the products available, one would only need to average 5 sales a day, a level that's very easy to handle and would allow one to devote much time to other pursuits, at $50 each to have an annual net income of 40K, tax free. Combine it with the steady 10K of SSI, let's say 4K a year for equivalent insurance, if you can get a subsidized apartment you can save at least 6K a year. 60K net income is pretty good for a fairly small sized operation where you wouldn't even have to do much, maybe an hour or two of work a day.
Lanny, what do you think about this?

Main problem would be brand name, recognition of the college's name, but that could be dealt with and probably wouldn't matter if you weren't going after jobs that require degrees from, ah, non-mediocre universities, or prestigious ones. I'm not interested in a career, but it would be a fun challenge, gaming the system, if I managed to recover from depression enough. Even without recovery, you only need to score over 50% to pass and receive credit, and a GPA may not be included on the transcript you receive. Going beyond that, I wonder if you could somehow manage to weasle into a master's program where you'd have access to much higher quality classes, environment, and peers, with the stupid people having largely been weeded out.
Certainly wouldn't have been a good option for you, but for most that receive generic jobs in an office, commonly outside of what they majored in, it could be great. You'd be bound to get by a significant percentage of employer's, there are so many universities in the US, as long as you can convince them it's not an online college or degree mill (University of Phoenix), which should be easy enough. I'd list it as: Excelsior College of Albany New York - Private non-profit
If they ask, just respond with something like, "That sometimes comes up, I hate the name. No, it's an actual accredited university. I carry these just in case it comes up." Then show them these:

Ha, what a lark if someone actually managed to pull off a success story from this. Fuck college. Can you imagine it, saving 4 years and only spending about 4K total to earn a degree compared to what most endure for it, just to end up in a comparable position (or better if you're intelligent and play your cards right)
I'm seriously going to do this, hopefully later this year if I'm well enough by then, unless I can find a good reason not to, just for the lulz at the very least, to have something to fall back on or if I need a cover story for income, and for social signaling purposes.The other exception is the Spanish CLEP…a 50 gets you 6 credits, but a 63 gets you 12.
Aww yeah, 12 fucking credits for a language I already speak (grew up speaking and took in high school as well because I was a slacker of epic proportions, it would be easier, and I had no interest in French) and all I have to do is score above 63. HAHAHAHAHA, fuck the system! -
2016-02-12 at 1:17 AM UTCMy god, I may have found something that could bring a 5-10 fold return. In the process of asking questions and waiting for the responses I need. Shipping (stealth/MBB use), prices for higher quantities, where it's produced (Chinese lab?), purity testing.
Also very curious about the price of morphine powder. Could make a killing with a pill press, only question is how to acquire one (watched item). DIY, modifying parts seems to be the way to go, considering how basic the mechanism is. A 3D printer seems like it would be perfect for making a replication mold, but I don't have access to one or any experience. -

I've never heard of a college that doesn't have a residency requirement (apparently this Excelsior doesn't though). Still, pretty sure CLEP doesn't exist for anything beyond GE requirements tier stuff, english comp, 200 level math, stuff like that. It is a much faster way to earn credits, I think everyone should do it because most of GE is stupid anyway (although it was what got me into my first phil course which I suppose I should be grateful for that) but really the only part of an undergraduate education that I think justifies the institution anymore is upper division courses that tend to be more free form, (much) more challenging and if you're going to skip that then it's not even worth spending $20 on. That may not be true for everyone, you can still hack it in my field without a degree so maybe there's a more meaningful value in the accreditation but "at what cost?" etc.Going beyond that, I wonder if you could somehow manage to weasle into a master's program where you'd have access to much higher quality classes, environment, and peers, with the stupid people having largely been weeded out.
Couldn't ever see it working, graduate admissions are based heavily on recommendations, which you of course can't get with CLEP (if that plan could work at all). And they are checked, there are people employed for the express purpose of validating these things.A 3D printer seems like it would be perfect for making a replication mold, but I don't have access to one or any experience.
Noisebridge has a 3D printer you could use, I did to fab some custom keycaps a while. It's a weird place, not really my cup of tea, but it's a 3D printer when you need it. Minimal issue for the socially anxious since everyone there is top-tier autistic. Acknowledging the existence of other humans almost seems like a faux pas. -
2016-02-12 at 6 AM UTCI was wrong, it's not just CLEP. The technique encompasses these two as well:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSST_(standardized_test)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excelsior_College_Examinations
Also read that taking a GRE gives you a huge amount of course credit (36), but I'm not sure if this is possible anymore. It's a bit muddled and I don't know what may have changed, I wish someone had written a clearer guide documenting exactly what tests you need to take to receive x degree from each of the schools. I'll have to look into the requirements of Charter and Thomas, Excelsior seemed like the top choice at first, but this may no longer be the case.
Also, Charter Oak State College and [FONT=Arial]Thomas Edison State College [/FONT] are the only two others that I'm aware of that also allow this.
If the signatures on this forum, which has a section dedicated to discussing these tests, are accurate, multiple people seem to have entered into Master's programs after attaining a degree from one of these schools, some even earning a PHD. Of course, it's always possible they're lying. May try to contact some of them and ask how they did it, if possible. Always the possibility to game the system, maybe I could play the autism/agoraphobia/severe depression/terrible past and repeated traumatic incidents (pretty much true) sob story; needed an alternative method and had no social connections due to autism. I wonder if they would still be influenced by scores on the SAT/ACT. If not, I wonder if I could still transfer in to major in something else, just to get the actual IRL college experience with the added benefit of having skipped the first two highschool 2.0 years and some of the retards having been weeded out.BS, Info Sys concentration, Charter Oak State College

I would love to experiment with intranasal PRL. It would be a hoot if I managed to increase retention so drastically that I could just breeze though test after test. Especially if the legendary PRL-8-147 comes out in time: https://www.reddit.com/r/Nootropics/comments/3w8ayp/nootropics_depot_discount_code/cxup7vv
Another idea I have for a memory technique is using aromatic oils while studying/memorizing key components/cramming, scent being the strongest tie to memory IIRC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-dependent_memory
I'm surprised I can't find information on this, it makes so much sense. Use different oils/scents while studying various subjects, maybe keep a bandaid on your upper lip with the pad soaked in a bit of it. Could provide a huge boost.
Amusingly, it seems the closest place that I can regularly take these exams is a Phoenix University branch in Oakland. Shady place. I wonder if it would be possible to bribe them into letting me pass as many tests at possible at once; damn that would be sweet. I'm hoping for an underpaid black guy if I choose to consider this route, I could see a bribe being a very real possibility considering it's Phoenix University, but I think it's done on computers now and I don't know if they have access to the answers. -
2016-02-12 at 6:15 AM UTCThis was recommended. A bit pricey, but it's an investment and could be well worth it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/141828111511
