Marijuana

[Scorpius the Allfather]

No kidding. So many lives needlessly ruined, and for what?

Racism and the threat from hemp. It was all done because of Standard Oil and Dupont. There may even be another company or two behind it.

Some mailer went out in my area regardless various potential laws…a year ago?, and one of the option was legalization. I was surprised to see in Ascension Parish we were basically 50/50. So maybe there’s broad enough support across the state.

I’ve thought for awhile it’s silly for a state with one of the biggest party cities hasn’t cashed in on that tax revenue.

I used to love being high when I was young - then in high school found out I couldn't drink and smoke at the same time or I'd get sick - Okay! Beer it is! now it's legal and tried it again and I'm still the same - can't abide... plus the smell of weed is starting to make me feel get-off-my-lawn-yell-at-cloud old - it's everywhere here now- ugh

You were smoking weed before high school?

The company I work for will discontinue testing for THC/CBD in the very near future. It's a huge corporation with sites in states that allow legal use. I think there has been lawsuits against the company for prohibiting using a "legal substance" in those states. So, instead of the legal hassle and expense, they are waving the white flag. Great development!

Hopefully, over the next 10 years it is totally legal nationwide.

My wife stated a new job about a year ago when she went in for her drug test, the paperwork specifically said that they would not be testing for THC.

We live in a legal state but this job is not in a legal state. But it's a very big company with locations all over the US.

I technically tried it when I was 14, but it felt like I was making it up, so I don't count my first time getting high at 14. The next time was when I was 18. I can even give you the exact date because it was during 3rd quarter exams my junior year.

I got high before high school like every day.

i was giving it up by my junior year in high school lol

( not really- but certainly slowed it down - but did quit by 21 )
started at 14.

and i have some quite unbelievable tales to tell that happened while high. Like "only in movie" type tales. LOL. One day plan on sharing my "house sitting/party" tale. I was 16 at the time.

I hardly smoke any more- the stuff out there is so refined and potent, that you cant regulate intake unless you have a tolerance built up.
As much as id like to try Unicorn Poop, i have no desire to feel like im on double dip white blotter. lolol.

In light of expanding legalization, does anybody on this thread have pointers for a Mushroom Noob?

The one thing I can tell you is that buying spores are legal. It doesn't matter what state you live in. It's the psilocybin that's illegal and the spores don't have it. Growing it is fairly simple, but you need to buy a few things. If you're not going that route, then the only thing I can help you with is you don't need to eat a lot. You can start at 1 gram and see if you feel that and wait about an hour, maybe even up to 2. If nothing, then .5 to a gram. You shouldn't need to eat an 8th. Are you a big person? That can make a difference.
