No, they won't, because the only form available is the IV form. There are no ketamine pills or tablets. Some doctors will prescribe ketamine nasal spray or lozenges to be made by a compounding pharmacy, but the vast percentage of doctors who are willing to administer ketamine in their offices are not at all willing to prescribe a take home dose, and if they are, it's in a very different form with different effects than the IV session. I get regular IV sessions and have compounded lozenges that I take daily, and in my experience neither the nasal spray (which I hated) nor the lozenges are anything like the infusion, and it was extraordinarily difficult to find a doctor in the Boston area that would write any kind of take home prescription. No clinic anywhere is going to give you a bottle of ketamine and some syringes, and neither is CVS.

You got addicted to Tylenol? Could you be more specific? Do you just mean that it stopped working for you? Because if you mean you truly developed a compulsive desire to take APAP, you must be the first person in the world ever to have done so.

No one would ever use that terminology in practice/conversation.

According to the current Cuban Assets Control Regulations, it is still, in most cases and circumstances, against the law for Americans to spend money in Cuba without a special license issued by the US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).

Pursuant to Gonzales v. Raich, which ruled that Congress could criminalize the production and use of homegrown marijuana for personal use, the interstate effect of gambling in any form on any activity is almost certainly sufficient for Congress to regulate or prohibit any or all gambling activity.

In addition, the Ninth Circuit has held that Congress has Commerce Clause authority to criminalize possession of homemade machine guns.

Congress has chosen to allow states to regulate gambling to a certain extent, which explains its legality in various forms in the various states.

Why would you never pay money for this? Do you mean this is a poor product in some way or simply that you would never pay money for software, either for ideological or financial reasons or both?

Learning org-mode plus enough emacs to use it is vastly more difficult than learning OneNote, and the macOS and iOS versions of OneNote are also quite good (it's not at all Windows-only). You may also export to various other formats and it's not text only; sometimes notes aren't only text but include images or handwriting (which can be OCRed and searched).

This is a native macOS and iOS app?

Any hotel nicer than your average Sheraton (Weston, W Hotels, etc.) will not have free Wi-Fi. Sheratons might not even have free Wi-Fi. Where you have been staying seem like they'd be classified as "motels" (like a Best Western Express or whatever) not actual "hotels".

Unfortunately no matter how many times you say this or how much you wish it were true, US (at least) courts have disagreed with you by enforcing contracts of adhesion.

Steve Jobs worked at Atari. I don't think there was 'gaming' in the sense that you mean it when Steve Jobs was younger.

Isn't teaching part of the definition of faculty? In other words, isn't it impossible to be 'faculty' if you don't take 'students' (i.e., 'teach')? At least anywhere I've ever heard of, this is true; someone who doesn't have students is considered 'staff'.

Is it really easier to get 'in' Denmark or Norway than the US or UK? Perhaps for vacation travel, but to settle permanently in small, wealthy, homogeneous countries is usually far more difficult than to settle in the US.

Unless NZ is significantly different from most other countries, no one has a right to a resident visa (although some people might have a right to citizenship, such as by descent), so they can already arbitrarily determine whether or not to grant a resident visa.
