Reply to comment by djstevefog in Bidens to host 'Ted Lasso' cast to promote mental health by Luka77GOATic
Part of that is convincing people to actually understand and use it, which this show does. It presents mental health as something everyone deals with, that isn't scary. I assume that mental health care support has been blocked by members of the government. Getting citizens to understand the need for such services, and to contact their government officials can change that.
Government officials won't support it if they think that won't help them stay in office.
Awareness always helps, even if only a little bit.

News flash. It isn't just Republicans doing it. Democrats vote down everything Republican where I live - I see it every day. This is the sad fact when it comes to two leading parties. It's always a pissing match between the two instead of shooting for bipartisan efforts that positively affect the people they serve.

Lmao when my roommate and I got covid, we pretty much just got baked the whole time and felt significantly better after like 3 days, it made it so much easier to just rest and recover

Well, that and the paper industry, DuPont, and the whole conservative narrative about POC being violent junkies when using it.

To be honest, you'd have to be mad to try to drive a car through "The City Of" during the day anyway, for at least the last... what? 15, 20 years?

Republicans vote against everything so democrats can’t do anything they promised since they don’t have a majority. When they did have a majority one democrat, for no reason at all, started voting with republicans. Weird how that works and nothing can ever get done.

>I don't want to hear republican roadblock excuses. Dems held the WH Assembly and Senate for 2 years.
With a slim majority and two democrats that obstructed everything. You really don't know what you're talking about.

Maybe Biden could improve Americas mental health by spending our tax dollars on things that actually improve our lives.

Don't forget the fact that it gives the US a convenient way to get lots of people locked up and forced into labor to keep US corporations competitive with those of other nations as well as bankroll the entire private prison industry.

Pissing off the other side? Why does that matter. Republicans could give 2 caps about that. Like I said time to be forceful the American people want it let's put the pressure on.
Look at the Texas just trying to hide the abortion pill access case bc of the protests. Only way things get better through history is to push and fight for them.

Reply to Kansas City prevented hundreds of evictions by providing attorneys. Now the program is growing by cragar79
In the US, there’s a big legal services gap. There are numerous, low value cases, like evictions or other landlord tenant issues, that aren’t profitable for private attorneys but have a potentially large impact on the parties involved. Most legal aid organizations, assuming an area even has one, are underfunded and overworked

There are so many different strains, I doubt they'd all do that to you. Like I can't smoke the Jack Herer strain, it gives me a ton of anxiety and restlessness. And I'd never smoke Blue Dream as a sub for adderall because it would make me too spacey, even though it love it when I want that effect.
I'd track down Red Congo if you haven't already, that one is the best received from all the people I've suggested it to over the years.
And one caveat is that it helps a lot if you live in a place with dispensaries so you can get a steady supply of specific strains at consistent quality, otherwise the medicinal benefit probably won't be as strong.

Or a health care system that flag people with mental issue and helps them. He would be a prime candidate to come clean with that himself .

I was once chatting with a disabled man in line at a medical dispensary. He told me his doctor dropped him as a patient because he stopped using fentanyl patches and started eating edibles.
