Reply to Medical Marijuana Legalization Linked To ‘Significant Decrease’ In Opioid-Related Payments To Doctors, Study Finds by DrDreidel82

The stigma around weed has ruined the relationship of millions of youths and their parents because of the lie they were told by the government and religion. I will never get back the years I spent away from my parents because they're religious fruitcakes that think weed is car-fentynal and heroin. The fights I had with my parents over fucking weed and cigarettes. It was like I committed murder. I don't know what was more toxic; the carcinogens I inhaled or my parents wrath over a recreational substance. Fuck Nixon, and fuck Reagan for pushing crack in poor neighborhoods and putting weed next to heroin on a scale of illegality. They should've been the ones to get capped, not JFK.

THE USA GOVT along with the early industry tycoons fed us all INSANE MADE UP BULLSHIT about cannabis like reefer madness and got everyone so fucking brainwashed by fear that they had the legal power to criminalize it alongside the truly wonderful hemp version. They KNEW the potential of this plant and targeted with absolute cold blooded precision to insure endless years of $$$and control over the people's of the world.

The amount of damage done to our own people/country world/ by this single event in history is absolutely incomprehensible. Everyone should and could have been growing there own God given God made plants to use for almost all there medical agricultural industrial needs and everything else inbetween! If I'm not mistaken OVER 40,000 KNOWN USES FOR IT!

ALSO PLEASE STOP CALLING IT MARIJUANA that was the slang name the US GOVT gave it in order to confuse and destroy this plant from what the people knew of/about it! CALL IT ITS BEAUTIFUL true name CANNABIS!!! hell anything but MARIJUNA don't give those fuckers the power by using their lie infested forced name!

Reply to comment by nyanlol in Cyclists Now Outnumber Motorists In City Of London by JackarooDeva

City of London is the financial district of London. It's where all the biggest office buildings are. So this is saying that in that neighborhood where lots of people commute to every day, there are more bikes than cars.

London itself is a sprawling city, that extends from the urban Central London (which is what most people think of when they hear London) all the way out to suburban homes.

Did you hear that, TX???? 😭

I’ve been on prescription opioids for almost a decade & I’m almost 30. I hate them & they make me feel awful. Weed helps with my chronic pain & suffering but I could go to jail & I have a family & little kids.

So embarrassed about my state’s hard-nose stance on this.

Reply to comment by TheArtOfEyewink in Bidens to host 'Ted Lasso' cast to promote mental health by Luka77GOATic

To be clear, the “/s” means the statement is sarcasm.

Obviously Biden can’t prevent Republicans from stopping legislation. Recently their main tactic is to filibuster any Senate bill. The rules of the Senate are weird, they decide during each session, and none of their rules are specifically described in the Constitution. So it’s odd that some bills can pass with simple majority, others require 60 or more votes in favor, and some only require a minority to filibuster. I don’t really get it.

Reply to After the dams: Restoring the Klamath River will take billions of native seeds by VVynn

When they get rid of the dams , that river will be poisonous for yrs to come. Not to mention a dry riverbed clogged with debris and silt. Look into who owns and controls the dams. Warren buffet. He’s off loading his cleanup and responsibility to the states of Oregon and California, and the greens open wide and swallow as planned
