It's really going to happen... Marijuana is going to be legalized this year. Do you know what that means?! That means no one will lose their job for failing a drug test (which can happen from trying marijuana once, months before the test) People won't have to buy marijuana from drug dealers who also sell more dangerous substances, possibly have connections to Mexican drug cartels, and from whom there are zero consumer protections. Doctors and the general public will have access to more research on marijuana, and there will be an even larger variety of marijuana plants available. Also, more and more textiles will be made from hemp, which I am fairly certain is every bit as efficient a plant in making textiles as cotton with a fraction of the care. (Not to mention that they're supposedly more durable - I saw Albert and Gio's hemp messenger bags. Stylin')
What does this mean for me? I won't be a criminal anymore. I can tell my parents about what I do, and why I like doing it. I can share with them how it's helped calm my life down from the frantic pace of college life (I pulled two all-nighters in a row just last night, and I only had a 4 hour nap just now.) so I can chill out and take a break. I'm not like those other people who can just sit and watch TV and put work on the back burner. Maybe I can do that for a little while, but then it just starts to nag, and knowing you have work to do makes any short period of downtime very difficult to enjoy. Marijuana changes that. It lets you focus on what you're doing, setting aside the other parts of your life that don't matter at the moment.
And what does this mean for you? You could get a job! You like baking? you could grow plants, bake cookies, sell them! They're not regular cookies, people will buy them for a much higher price, and it's freaking wholesomely delicious! You bake, I buy, then we baked. how about that? Haha some freakonomics we're up to, huh?
