diamonds compared to live rosin gram

when I’ve had both a gram of diamonds and a gram of live rosin the rosin lasts me so much longer than the diamonds. i stored them both in the fridge at about 45 degrees. The rosin is lasting me about twice as long. Is this right? Am I doing something wrong storing the diamonds? They almost start to look melty after the first session. Like 5 mins what’s the deal?

Proxy Base Insanely Better Than Pivot

I’m sure I will get a lot of people saying “duh” but I just have to say how much of a concentrate revolution the Proxy is for me. I’m new to dabbing and started with the Pivot and was instantly hooked on concentrates. That was about 2 months ago. I had been thinking about upgrading because I love dabbing so much and when I saw that the Proxy was new and getting rave reviews I took the $240 hit two days ago. This is like an entirely different and better high than the PivotI don’t even think the two compare. It just seems to hit better. It’s like I was puffing on a joint before and this thing is a bong. I fucking love it. For some reason blue temp was lame for me on the pivot I kept hearing people say that live rosin should be vaped at a lower temp. With the Proxy, 2 dabs and 4 big hits and I was toast with some Punch tier 4 on blue. This is a whole new ballgame for me. I learned about dabbing entirely from this sub!

EDIT : the battery life alone is amazingly better than the Pivot and cleaning it is so much easier.A single dry swab while it’s still warm is all it needs.

Representing Self v. Attorney

I have been in an extremely long emotional and at times, contentious divorce. I have spent an outrageous amount on attorney fees. It does not matter why, but my wife and I have reached an agreement/settlement. It is not complex, we are not seeking any spousal support from one another, we are not seeking child support from one another, we are keeping all of our own current assets including retirement plans. We will share 50/50 custody but my child will reside in my home. I am told that if either of us felt the need to make a change on the child custody/support agreement we could go back to court until the child is no longer a minor.

I want to fire my attorney. I do not feel I need him in a case this straight forward now.There were times when he was necessary when tensions/emotions were high. My wife is repping herself too. Neither of us want to spend money on lawyers. My lawyer is telling me I need him to make sure the agreement is legally binding and ensure we provide each other lists of assets, submitting paperwork to court, etc. Just details in submitting the paperwork to the court too. He says it would take 3-4 hours at $600 per. So $1,800-$2400.

Can't I just get all the documents online and both sign? Why do we need to declare assets if we want nothing? If the child agreement can be reviewed any time, it doesn't seem like any risk. I am in CA, and have been married for over 20 years.

Is a Bad Review Blackmail?

I had a completely awful experience at a Lexus dealership. In short, I feel misled and manipulated by the sales team and manager. They know I am unhappy with the purchase deal I received and agreed it was unfair.

They said they’d “make it right” and proceeded to put me through a worse back and forth sales experience than the first time. I just left. If I tell them in an email that I’m going to publish bad reviews of my story, is that a threat or blackmail? If the story is true? Anything to be concerned about?

EDIT 2: This post is creating a lot swirl. I was totally fine to accept that they fucked me and walk away. But when I was in for service the service person asked me what I was going to do at the end. I told him I wanted to buy the car but would be going through Lexus because I felt taken advantage of. On his own, he went to the sales manager and gave him my story. It was they that got me back into the sales room floor to “do me right”—they screwed around with me for 3 hours offering me nothing but another lease and asking for more money down. How is that helping me at all? It’s not. They wasted my time after initially jerking me around. And yes, I am at fault for not knowing everything I should have, but I trust going to a large reputable brand and dealer that they will not steer me wrong. That’s where I was completely wrong.

EDIT: I’m adding this detail here:

People will make fun of me for not knowing. But I was straight up lied to about the terms of a lease. I was about to purchase a used car. They said they wanted to show me one more car. They brought out the new car. I told them I can’t afford that. They said you can with a lease. I said, I don’t want a lease because I’ll own nothing. They told me that I build equity in a lease. That is absolutely untrue. The only “equity” you’d have is if the car is worth more than the residual value assigned at signing and you buy it. That’s not equity at all. I even asked the sales person to verify. He went to the sales manager and was told that I do indeed build equity. They know they manipulated me because they said they’d “make it right”—no defense.

Reconcile with Drunk Wife?

I have been sober for 3 years after being a heavy daily drinker for over 25 years. In and out of rehabs several times, I finally got sober by deciding to try on my own after moving out because my wife is also a heavy drinker. We’ve been moving toward divorce because she has no desire to stop drinking despite a DUI, a hospital visit and a 36 hour psychiatric hold in the last 12 months.

I currently have custody of our only minor child. I reside in a very high cost of living city and the bills are crushing me. My soon to be ex isn’t helping me with expenses. I am really struggling each month and dipping into savings to stay alive.

I am looking at my future and it seems bleak. Things would be much more affordable if we cohabitated. All the utilities go down, groceries, everything. But I’m afraid I’ll relapse. Poor and sober is better than secure and drunk, right?

I’m a half-assed decent NFL fan. Don’t care about baseball at all, watch NBA during the playoffs and same with NHL. But the worse my marriage became the bigger sports fan I became. Suddenly spending hours on the weekend on the sofa because I had to watch “the game”. I actually believed it too. I was intentionally spending less time with her and more time doing something I don’t really like that much. I hardly watched anything other than championships before that. In hindsight, that was probably the beginning of the end.
