This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

is it being used in a responsible fashion?

i dont live in a country where weed is legal, but i can say that others like nicotine and alcohol are definitely not used responsibly

Some people are, some people aren't. The important thing is that it's none of your business.

as i said before, i dont know much about weed, but for nicotine and alcohol, it is part of my business

i care about the wellbeing of others and have seen how much harm they have caused to relatives and people i have met

there is also smoke being dangerous even if you arent the one smoking, me hating the smell, alcohol increasing the risk for car accidents along with other negative effects on other people

if people want to consume them, they should do it responsibly, not because they were convinced by someone whose job is to get as many people to buy the addictive product as possible or by peer pressure
