    Its extremely well documented. This is exactly why you shouldnt take medical advice online seriously. It just stems from an over saturation of cannaboid receptors. The same receptors whose antiemetic effects are useful for cancer patients or other nausea prone patients can be reversed by over saturation of the receptor. It can be fixed typically by a period of abstinence that lets the receptors reset, but some people can never really partake again.

    I say this as someone who worked as a nursing assistant and used to be an anatomy/biology tutor in college. I also have smoked way more weed than any of you over the past decade. If you havent seen any evidence of this, its because you have no idea how to look.


  • Mostly the use of old scripts. So for Akkadian Im learning a bit of old babylonian, sumerian and neo-assyrian cunieform. Hittite predominantly uses Old Hittite cunieform with some Luwian glyph writing. Egyptian had me learning a bit of hieroglyphs and demotic. I want to take a more serious crack at Greek/Minoan linear alphabets and those new Elamite books from Francois I back burnered. Ive dabbled in some Eblaite, Ugaritic and Hurrian as well.

    The biggest difference has just been the fact that Im a native english speaker. A lot of the grammatical concepts and sounds are relatively new to me. Shortly before Akkadian I started learning Arabic, and that was a huge help getting started with the semitic languages. Its been kind of funny coming back to learn indo-european languages better like Spanish and Hittite. I feel better prepared for certain grammar structures I struggled with when I was younger after learning a bit of some semitic languages and its been fun talking language with my native Spanish speaking coworkers who love to trade language lessons.
