He's against de scheduling weed

The task force he told to do investigate rescheduling reefer came back with a recommendation to make it schedule 3, alongside testosterone and ketamine. I think they plan on rolling out changes in the next few months.

So, he has, after 3.5 years, started to talk about doing the bare-ass minimum on this one issue.

I haven't heard anything about it, but I hope that's true. It still needs to get congressional approval outside of executive DEA stuff. It would be really great if a law was passed to specifically make it illegal for employers to inquire as to your drug use/non use outside of work hours. There's a bunch of shit tied into that not happening though traced back to like the start of the "war on drugs" especially in transportation professions... which obviously I don't think a dude should he hitting his vape pen and hopping in his big rig to drive interstate, but, that should preclude him from smoking after work or, say, 8 hours before driving. Treat it like drinking alcohol... just too much criminality tied up in smoking a plant. It's always been for racist and/or sanctimonious reasons and that absolutely needs to end.

I also hate even having to discuss weed legalization when there's an ongoing genocide. The scale of these things is incomparable and it seems like a lot of like 45+ y/o's haven't come to grips with those facts yet that you can talk about weed or healthcare including abortion or college tuition but in the end if people are paying attention and actually care on a human level about the Palestinian cause they are just going to become more enraged at democrats like "I wish I could focus on weed right now, but unfortunately your dumb ass is still incinerating children!"

Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
