@Evil_Bender then why can't republicans fool them?

Probably seems more likely that they're just stupid, easily manipulated fools.

@Evil_Bender @SapientPearwood but the republicans fool some people

Republicans and Democrats are just the uni-party designed to trap you into this 2 party prison.

Because they're not trying at all. They're working hand in hand together.

@SapientPearwood @Evil_Bender so why do the republicans fool some people, but not all of the people
-
Embed this notice
Sadly they do, just like the democrats do. My hope is once things are set right again the truth will be out there and these people will see the error they made in believing these demons and trusting them.

@teknomunk @Evil_Bender @SapientPearwood I don't think it's IQ level at all. It's cultural plus personal factors.
In general country codes as "served by the republican party", but you have the hicklib who through being maybe bookish and ignored because "served by the democrat party"

@feralphilosophernc @SapientPearwood @Evil_Bender You know there are faster ways to destroy your brain, you can drill holes in it I hear to make all the pain drain out

Which state? Been reading about various fuckeries regarding implementation of legal weed programs in a few states.

Ours is only medical but even with it they're fucking around with stupid panels that discuss the best way to implement it. They're now being sued for fucking around and picking and choosing only friends businesses.

Thankfully, we've been rec legal since 2021.

I sincerely wish my jurisdiction would hurry up with their bullshit so the dispensaries can open and docs can prescribe it. It was legalized by popular vote YEARS AGO.

Best choice is not taking kike's drugs.

@SapientPearwood @Evil_Bender @feralphilosophernc yes, I would suggest against things like that for sure. But there are actually alternate therapies for pain, depending on the cause.
It's just hard to find out because the system incentives getting people hooked on pills

Even if that were true it would still be better than taking drugs made in China that destroy other areas of your body while providing very little pain relieving benefit.

@feralphilosophernc @SapientPearwood @Evil_Bender The drilling holes in head wasn't actual advice, and was intended to be hyperbolic - but for what it is worth there are non-drug therapies that can help for a wide range of issues.

I was the same. Was in opiates due nearly two decades. Haven't touched any in years and my pain is actually MUCH less. Probably developed hyperalgesia from length of use

Ngl, I've noticed the complete opposite over the years since I've been on pain meds. I absolutely HATE having to take the medicine so i'm not rocking and crying because i can feel it slowly dumbing me down. It's not a lot but in numbs all of my senses and makes me feel like I'm walking through a thick mud mentally sometimes.

It's amazing how much my health, mental well being and cognition have improved since I started smoking weed, but Just Say No, bruh...🙄

I drink today. I was just in a bad place in life, everybody told me alcohol will kill me. When? Was my usual response. But once you get trapped its hard to get out.

Cannabis is a fine leaf. As with anything, moderation.

I was 7 bottles of whiskey and maybe 60-70 beers a week. Weed helped me give it up

@Evil_Bender @pyrate @SapientPearwood @feralphilosophernc there are no "natural" drugs, all of them are chemicals that you aren't supposed to be putting in your body
-

Lol, never done it.
If it's not a natural drug I'm not interested. DMT wasn't even as enjoyable as a nice psilocybin trip.

That one time I thought it was a good idea to take LSD and go paragliding. Ended up with a screaming yenta in the back of my hilux.

That's a rare occasion thing. Weed is the only thing I do on a regular basis maybe a beer here and there with dinner. But I don't shy from any mind altering gifts from God.

@SapientPearwood @Evil_Bender @feralphilosophernc @pyrate for certain things "natural" is a good rule of thumb, but drugs is one to be careful with. The deathcap mushroom is "natural" but I wouldn't suggest ingesting it. Unless there has been selective pressure to make a natural drug conform to humans, there is no added safety and the only advantage that it can confer is people having used them for a long time.

Natural as in it doesn't take lab manipulation to make them work. Everything is just a chemical you're putting into yourself if you wanna go that route.
