    Coming Soon, Really

    I've been a bit under the weather since Trotcon, but feeling better now.

    This weekend I need to work on putting together some poni stuff for my niece (she's up here for her birthday), and my inability to do basic things makes that a bit difficult. So I may be delayed a few days on the Trotcon retro and the other long post I still really really want to share with y'all.

    Twilight's Enigmatic Clarification (AI ≠ LLM GAI)

    To head off any possible confusion, I've added a clarification to TEEE's story page and a note at the top of the chapter explaining that TEEE was not written using LLM generative AI (the story actually predates this technology by several years).

    I will be at Trotcon. Still alive.

    I remain alive, and as of June 13th am now the number of symmetries in a cube.

    I will be at Trotcon.

    Please contact me if you're there! (Or even if not, that's okay too.) :pinkiesad2:

    I might do an author party. I'll announce it with another post. Signal boost would be useful.

    I am still alive and also at AnthrOhio

    Sorry for disappearing. Ironically the thing I wanna talk about is the thing that keeps me from being here at FF or getting anything done. :facehoof:

A Wild Miracle Has Appeared · 9:14pm Jun 7th, 2019

Something incredible has happened. :pinkiegasp:

I may have found a treatment to knock out both my myofascial pain and crippling depression.


It's totally like, y'know. Right? Yeah mare.

Medical marijuana is legal in Ohio now, and I have a prescription card. I have discovered that strains of marijuana which are low in THC and high in CBD stop the myofascial pain in my teeth without getting me stoned. It's amazing! :pinkiehappy: Better still, my depression is much less severe now. It's probably partly from being off the opiates, and partly from the marijuana.

Of course, the way the law is handled here is ridiculous. It's anything but medical. You go to see a doctor who only does medical marijuana prescriptions (no referral needed) and pay a fee. The doctor suggests which kinds of marijuana might help. Then you go to the dispensary and buy whatever you want, no limits.

It's sort of like if you went to the doctor for depression and she hoofed you a huge bag full of seventeen different kinds of antidepressants and said, "Try some of these. Look online to see how to take them. Lemme know if it worked in a year." I don't understand how this is considered medical, exactly. I also don't care. This may have saved my life, and that's what matters.

I still need the opiates for electrolysis once a week, which is unfortunate. Also, I don't know if it will work if the pain is too severe. So I'm hesitant to jump the gun, but things are definitely looking up.

Some problems remain, however. My motivation is still poor (and that isn't related to the marijuana). I won't be able to write until that's fixed. But there's a light at the end of the tunnel, and I might be able to participate in the Bronycon Bookstore thing after all. :twilightsmile:

When you see me finally post a new story, you'll know I'm back, baby. :rainbowwild:

Yay! I hope this is the beginning of finding the right meds that truly help you. Good luck and I hope to see you at BronyCon!

I’m so happy to hear this!

When you see me finally post a new story

If you want an easy warmup, remember that you are always welcome and encouraged to do a zero-effort shitfic collab with yours truly. :raritywink:

Praise be to... natural remedies.

Huzzah! Here's hoping your motivation returns in short order.

Fingers crossed for you

Glad things are finally looking up. Hopefully it works and wishing you well!

This sounds like a reason to be hopeful. :D

I do hope it helps! MJ laws in America are rediculous.

Oh, excellent! Good luck, indeed!

Sounds good let's hope things keep looking up

I been told you to smoke some of that good shit for a long ass time now. :ajsmug:

Excellent news!

Huzzah! Huzzah!

Excellent. You can get the CBD without THC as pills over the counter, you know.

That's good to know. I'm not sure of the effectiveness of straight CBD, though. It's only one of a host of chemicals working in concert in the flower, and the fact that there's a little THC in what I'm vaping may be a part of what's working.

I've tried small doses of the higher THC stuff as well, but it's too distracting, which makes motivation worse.

FUCK YEAH!
