The roll out for recreational use in my state has been a bit annoying and painful, also compounded with the anti-smoking shit they underwent beforehand. So this summer should be interesting once everything starts settling into a form of normalcy (hopefully). I've also encountered the effectiveness that CBD has been having, which I might not have if I wasn't ...involved with this.
Way better than alcohol ever was. Anyway...
Happy 4/20!

I have such a mixed bag going on here where I live.
It's legal to carry under a certain scale, it's legal to have it in your fat cells and urine, but liquor stores which once enterprised on selling it had to take it off their shelves here in the past month.
For a while, I could hit the liquor store and buy weed, it was amazing and the quality was mid, but recently that (and psychotropic gummies) stopped being sold.
...that being said, I 'know a guy'. If anyone wants psychadelic gummies I'm your (wo)man.

Happy 4/20!
So happy, very celebrating.
Before it was legalized in Canada..... On 4-20 we had events where people would be allowed to smoke pot on Dundas Square and Woodbine park. Police are right there chilling as though there were a truce.
Dundas Square is Toronto Time Square, with some open space with LED screens all over the place. Events and stuff goes on over there.

Reminds me of when it was first legalized in New York, and in Time Square Crow and I saw Ice Cream Trucks repainted into Weed-mobiles, selling it in brownies and lollipops and shit.
Street-level dealers all came out of hiding, promising better prices than the trucks could offer, but not only was the stuff from trucks better but it got less of a shady eye from the law. Probably could have bought crazier shit if I'd asked them but those trucks were fire.
The lights of the city look so much better with a haze filter, both true in art and life.

The city is out of my reach for now, but not in my dreams.
I started my drug program for probation yesterday and thought it was ironic. It's also Hitler's birthday.
It's also my Father's death day.
In Canada we don't really have drug testing. Only certain jobs that entail security may do it. We have privacy laws that prohibit drug testing.

Before it was even legal I kid you not we had weed shops already selling weed. Canna-clinic. You just go there fill out of forum medical form on the spot, no doctor note. And you're in.
They had lineups out the door, making more money than Ronald every day. Every now and then they will get raided by police, then open for business again the next day.
I did vote for Justin Trudeau the first time. The Conservative Government created this ad, and that's what got Trudeau elected.
While the ad was correct, it was a HUGE mistake to mention Trudeau's policy to legalize cannabis. All that did was make Canadians say... Wut ? Really ?
Now we have weed shops all over the place, and they aren't that busy. Come to think of it I should grow some now that I'm renting a home with a rather large backyard. I don't smoke it often though. Makes me nervous sometimes. I gave away almost all of that ganja I posted on here.

Good place to be a tour guide though it would cost more to transport clients. That's 1 way you can live there. Get a nice crack in the wall for the low price of 4k a month.
no doctor note.
Damn really?
Didn't see that here even in places as easy access as Cali. They made it easy to get the cards but without it you were out of luck.
Was so nice to see that change during road trips, Colorado had the best not only for potency, but understanding. They were the only place I saw ranting and raving about Terpenes, and that's still true even now for the most part.

...how does McDonalds have such a high pop of rich buyers? They prey on the poor, even down to racial DEI college programs, but the rich buy from them all the same.
I know the food science, the mix of sweet salt and dairy with grain filler, but a ton of other places do it too. In other countries though... their food is made naturally, making for American restaurants as... something truly foreign if you're not in somewhere indoctrinated like Kuwait where they don't even list the calories.
No joke, when I traveled to other countries I had to detox and so did Systematic and Crow (caffeine and salt respectively, while mine was hard sugar). The food here is unnatural and the few places that try to be us are basically importing drugs as food.

Oversaturated market, and I only speak one language.
I've met foreigners in my time there but none of them were looking for a guide. They all know Time Square and everything is on a numbered grid with easy room to find yourself with google maps.
...the poorer sections I stayed in while passing through were even worse for that. My mother always insisted on nice hotels but since becoming an adult I've learned to accept things like bedbugs and pseudo-homelessness programs in hostels to afford my way.

Even I was shocked. Long lineups and multiple locations. Unlike modern weed shops in Toronto, Canna-Clinic smelled like weed. When we made it in, we'd have time to browse a menu with all kinds of weed, THC percentage, indica or sativa CBD percentage. All the stats, and they have endless jars and workers at the counter dealing it out putting it plastic bags and putting it in a white paper bag.
It was funny cause everyone lining up were all pop culture like and looked nothing like patients. This place never gave a fuck.
Another place was in Kensington Market, which for some reason is a tourist strip in Toronto. The place is basically these old houses and building with graffiti all over the place. There was a weed shop that supposed to just sell pipes and bongs and stuff like that, but they also sold seeds, and they had a back alleyway with a patio setting where people would burn. They probably sold weed to people they trusted.
Now weed shops are legal here and they basically feel something like a odorless card shop as everything is packaged in resealable tin bags. They sell other shit like THC snacks zigzags lighters whatever, and they are generally dead in there considering these places are all over the place now.
Canna-Clinic was 2 or 3 locations at the time, and now Toronto and the GTA ( Greater Toronto Area ) has, I'm seeing here, 990 weed shops.
Trump is not opposed to legalization of pot for some time now. Happened this week, the upcoming drug reform in the US. Basically Joe Rogan wrote Trump about this and it seems like all psychedelic are going to be legalized in the US. That being, LSD, Shrooms, Pot, DMT and whatever else isn't known for killing people.
How this blows over, might come down to the state, hence pot being illegal in some states.

They reel people in from the time their young. When I was a child McDonald's was some magical place where I'd be disappointed that Ronald wouldn't show up. Personally after a swimming lesson we'd be damn hungry, and the golden arches were in our faces. Don't know about now, but they used to do Birthday parties and they would advertise between children's programs on TV. The place basically turned into a household name, and the items on the menus, which are loaded with MSG, are in fact nostalgic to many North Americans including Canada.
It also used to be dirt cheap to eat at McDonald's in the 80's which was satisfying considering people get to eat cooked food really fast and that familiar MSG food was everywhere. People used to to take their kids and their kids friends to Ronalds, but in 2026, nope. 1 fucker to have a decent meal is nearly $30 bucks now.
In the 90's Russia got its first McDonald's and it served nearly 40,000 customers on opening day. The line up was usually several hours in the freezing cold. I don't know if it was promoted as American food, or if McDonald's was that famous worldwide. This is all before the internet.
In 2024 They tested out the Big Arch in Canada, and we loved it, then they took it away. This is the only thing they ever sold that was filling, and it was pretty heavy. Put the Big Mac, which is almost as light as it's cardboard box, to shame.
In the US it became trendy to hate on the Big Arch. People made videos on it for clout, but before the Mc.CEO fumbled the product, all of the American food reviewers gave it the thumbs up. The legit ones, not the people trying the Big Arch so they can gag and toss it in the trash for the camera. Literally all of food reviewers you can find liked it. I think some of the videos of undercooked meat were faked for views and I'd read comments and I'm thinking. None of these people even tried the thing. Not that I'm promoting the burger, but, the Big Arch in the US had a lot of bad luck when it comes to groupthink.
Last time I went to Trinidad I was shocked to see all the American fast food chains made it there. McDonalds, Subway etc.

MSG. It's great stuff. Makes food taste better. It comes in powder form, you sprinkle it on anything while cooking it and you're a 5 star chef all of a sudden. Every fast food joint and other places use it. It's the source of their power.

I'm actually interested to know what McDonald's is like in Europe. The food in Canada is better than the US, but we're not as healthy as Europe either. I heard in the US your ketchup isn't even made with real tomatoes.
The problem in the US, are laws that put the WTO above the FDA, so corporations can patent the shit you're supposed to eat and the FDA must approve it.

I never been there, but I've flown over it many times. It's a massive place. I saw footage of it, and the size of buildings over there are really impressive.
I don't see any reason to go there though. It's just more concrete steel and glass with a bunch of people who'll flip you off. Job market will be congested. It's welcome to the jungle 24/7.
