I don't care if people use it medicinally or recreationally, but I do care that lives are ruined and that our tax dollars wasted on prosecuting, fining, jailing, probationing, etc people who are using something that's innocuous compared to alcohol and many prescription drugs.

Definitely agree on the decriminalization thing… The only reason why I mention THC content is on a lot of websites or ads for the medical places you see descriptions like "HIGHEST THC CONTENT!!! DANKEST DANK!!!" which don't seem to concerned with the medicinal benefits... Hahah

[mclaincausey]

Heh yeah. Honestly, and I say this as a person who believes in the medicinal benefits of pot based on conversations I've had with so many medicinal users about it, I really wish that the drive to legalize could have been tied to human freedom instead of medicine. It has really muddied the water and created confusion. I think the medicinal route may have been the only way this injustice could be rectified though…

[jdl1279]

Here it's more low key. I wish the general method of communication in the industry would shift a bit to fit where they are trying to go. Things like you point out, and the continuation of head shop names for strains hinder general perception and often set a wrong tone.

Spot on, Ben. Advertisements like that send the wrong message, and hurt the entire community. That's nowhere near the most egregious I've seen, either.

Also, all those clowns on the Venice Boardwalk, dressed in lime green, pushing $35 cards to tourists are really abusing/damaging the progress and need to be stopped.

I had something really smart sounding to say, but then I got baked and took a nap

I have a friend that works at one of those crazy Venice spots. She used to date the goofy artist guy that was in wedding crashers.  It truly is like no other place and very in your face

Hold on pics until I confirm format with H.

First person that says its too hot this summer I'm punching In their kidney!!

^ -20 F w/ wind outside as I type. I could definitely see such a statement triggering rage after this winter.

Soft mattress?
Ya, maybe could have been that. Or maybe the midnight rape…...or the nude gay art show that took place in my room lastnight

[ohighyo]

Would that make you love me!!

Air Supply should be deprived of the same, as they are the worst band in history. This isn't a rant, this is an announcement of a basic truth.

[zwer]

I think Toto is worse than Air Supply.

If you're looking for a way to watch US Netflix, etc., from outside America, you could do worse than unlocator.com

Free, and it takes about 2 minutes to set up.

[mclaincausey]

At least Toto had a great drummer. Where's Air Supply's silver lining, especially now that I know they're not dead.

If Jupiter were our moon… I find this pic completely terrifying...

[mclaincausey]

You should… pretty sure that if the tidal forces didn't destroy us we'd be in a degrading orbit if it were that close.

Gorgeous picture.
