  1. getting high all day and taking small tokes periodically, especially before sitting down to focus on a task for a while, are completely different things. but everyone reacts differently and for me it's a calming, turn the chatter off in my brain kind of experience. I've never liked the prolonged high of overdoing it with edibles, so I don't take them very much. I don't think I metabolize them like other people do either bc they just don't have a prolonged effect on me (anymore)
  2. I probably need to take a tolerance break. buddy gave me some 75mg gummies for sleep and I took one on the 4th to stave off the depression about what I was reading going on around me and barely felt anything. then again, i smoke a little throughout the day and it basically normalizes me and gives me focus. I haven't been high-high in a long time, and frankly I'm ok with that. I'd rather be normalized and functional than neurotic and high.
  3. yeah, kinda feels like a scorned ex-girlfriend running around going, "if you really want to know about him, I'm right here!"
  4. get back to work, old man! this regime needs your toil to pad their coffers. get to it!
  5. no, but he's got the monkey smashing keys schtick down
  6. correct and it's likely the second biggest reason DeBoer got the axe behind losing the players (really no coming back from that). and maybe the two were one in the same.
  7. he's getting paid THIS season to do that. He was getting paid the same as Seguin and Benn and slightly more than Roope last season and he outperformed all of them. I'm not saying you're wrong, but it's good to keep things in perspective. now that he's making top 5 player money, he needs to play like a top 5 player. his stats say he is top 15-25 player, so he will certainly need to elevate his game to begin earning those dollars. I think he will do that and more.
  8. this fall, probably, when we're all trying to enjoy football and hockey
  9. welp, was considering a scrip but nah
  10. don't worry, dotard will tell them not to and they won't
  11. everyone disappeared. that series against the oil was one of the most frustrating I have ever seen - i can only imagine what it was like on the bench rantanen will not be expected to carry the team - no player in the modern nhl is capable of that. the oil have proven that. he'll be expected to produce at or better than he did in COL, however, and it remains to be seen if that can happen without Mac and Cale. he's good enough to carry a line, and even with a game by himself (relatively), but he will need skilled players around him to do that. we have them - we just need to make sure the rest are good enough to not get the brakes beat off us every time rantanen's line is off the ice
  12. counterpoint: this is what winning looks like when you're a complete piece of shit
  13. put it in reverse, terry!
  14. oh no, they explode, it's just a lot smaller than you might expect
  15. Faksa re-signed. I like that. Graham promoted to big club assistant. Not a surprising move.
  16. kinky. I guess. same but with Boobert.
  17. that's why the focus needs to be those who didn't vote, not trying to change the minds of those who did. most of those people are beyond saving. focus on those who we can bring around.
  18. I'm sure magats will tone down the rhetoric after these developments. 🙄
  19. fair has nothing to do with it. the expectation is that the Stars will go further than we went last year with better players than the year before (Nill is working on that part). we actually went backwards this season. we only won our division (instead of conference, and almost President's), we had fewer regular season points (106 vs 113) and won one fewer playoff game. so I'd say at least 2023-2024 results or better is the expectation.
  20. good, they needed to fix that. I actually don't have an issue with any of the rule changes coming out of the CBA: the second to last is aimed at Lou Lamoriello
  21. This is where I sit until proven otherwise. Nill is a fucking wizard and he has earned our trust. Guessing they wanted Gulutzan to cook a bit before bringing him back. I don't hate the pick, but he's not gonna get a ton of grace from me or the media. he has to bring the team forward, not backwards one step.
  22. Do you mean literally or figuratively? Both apply, just want to know what you mean
