This might be unpopular here, but there are sometimes problems for people who use marijuana. Sometimes naming something can help us be aware of issues we didn’t realize were in place.

To have cannabis use disorder, or CUD, a person must have two or more of such symptoms as craving weed, becoming tolerant, using more than intended, using marijuana even though it causes problems in life, using it in high-risk situations, experiencing withdrawal and being unable to quit, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    I was posting it from the perspective that it is becoming ubiquitous, and legalization is becoming a mute point, especially since the farm bill of 2018. The door is open, the horse is loose.

      Well, I live in a shithole state where it’s probably never going to be legalized, so “ubiquitous” is a bit optimistic lol.

      especially since the farm bill of 2018.

      My state criminalized D8 in 2023, and I believe the farm bill has expired or is expiring this year. I know a lot of shitty red states were pissed about the loophole, so I don’t have faith it’s going to remain.

      We don’t even have citizen-initiated ballot measures, so we can’t even be like our neighbor Ohio and get it that way. Did I mention my state was a shithole? If not, let me make it abundantly clear that WV is a shithole.
