Really the biggest thing is just having some common courtesy and being considerate of where and when you do it.

To an extent, smoking in public is fine. My regular smoke spot is in a park. But I also hike 20 minutes to it explicitly because its as far away from everyone else as possible, and the wind is usually going away from them.

Maybe I'm overcautious, but I remember walking down the street as a kid and just hating the smell of cigarettes. I never found weed as bad, but I don't want to br the asshole who's the reason some poor 8 year is holding their breath as you walk past them.

The shit that happens when you have an exclusively eurocentric history education.

Edit: which isn't even that good of an excuse. Even Herodotus' Histories mentions pot use

I say this as a pothead. If you're smoking in a public area where it's not specifically designated and there's people there that don't want you to, you're an ass.

While dramatic, it echos a sentiment a lot of us have. I am on a good career path. I will never own a home. I likely won't retire. Unless something drastic changes, I can't see any of that slowing down, let alone getting better. That's not even to speak of climate change, increasing world tension and aggressive postering, or any of the other shit plaguing the world right now.

I hope with all my heart we get to a place where I feel comfortable bringing a child into this world, with the promise of a better future for them. That's not the world we currently live in.
