I've had mushys a couple of times... the different coloured stars in the sky were great... the feeling, as a whole, is not my cup of tea at all.

Cannabis lets you relax, have a bit of a euphoric and happy feel, but you're always in control and aware of your surroundings.

Cannabis is a mild and harmless drug which should be, legalized and regulated sooner, rather than later.

And that's the reason I've never tried anything stronger than dope, and even then why I only partake very minimally and irregularly. I like to retain control.

I'm reasonably attuned to how alcohol effects me, and when I can feel I've had too much, I go to bed. Dope is nice, but slows my brain down. I can feel the impact most of the next day if I have a couple of joints, so if I do smoke it's only on a non-school night.

^ Slower, but otherwise "normal", or is it different in other ways too (e.g. depth of thought, concentration, etc.)?

Feels like someone has injected a mix of jelly and cement into my brain. The normal thought reactions that come quickly and naturally, I have to work to make them happen.

That's fine on a weekend when you're chilling, but not when you need to use your brain at work.

Not sure how Trump's Attorney General Jeff "Reefer Madness" Sessions will take this.

Definitely on Team Trump on this. Anything that makes Sessions unhappy is probably a good thing.

The different states may have different laws. These may clash with federal laws. It may matter whether it's classified as a "misdemeanour" or a "felony". Statutes of limitation may also come into play...

All of which still leave me wondering.
