Speaking of the first point, Moira (Emmerdale), normally a good character, has been unbearable this past week or two. “Holly died of an overdose, and your brother’s out there growing weed?!” People die of alcohol-poisoning. People don’t die from cannabis. There’s no fatal overdose. But yet you’re in the pub every day. Like, just stop with the hypocrisy.

Who knows? Maybe CBD, RSO oil and, indeed, some THC could’ve reduced your tumour and knocked the seizures for six, Moira. But the narrative is supposed to be “drugs, even ones legal in 1/3 of the world at this point, are bad eNd oF, AlCoHoL goOd, even essential,” so we ain’t supposed to question the arrant hypocrisy and stupidity. It’s just irresponsible storytelling in 2025. And no-one asked for it, tbh.

A broader selection of theme parks (instead of Alton Towers, Blackpool Pleasure-Beach, Thorpe Park and maybe Drayton Manor, if that’s still going, being the extent of it; Gullivers’ World doesn’t make the cut) works in America’s favour, too.

Americans also earn much more money (goes without saying), but at-least surgery in the U.K. doesn’t cost an arm and a leg (pun not intended).

I personally have no interest in theme parks.

Americans earn but money but have absolutely appalling workers rights/benefits. The UK isn’t amazing, but it’s a damn sight better than the US.

People who vape weed often use dry-herb vapes (ElementVape unfortunately seems to be U.S.-only). Dynavap is cheap but does the job so long as you know how to use it. Better than stinky, skunky spliffs any day of the week, so long as it works.

There’s range but not as readily available as what’s in the U.S. and Canada. The U.K. is still eager to posit alcohol as the no.-1 drug. And that’s never really changed. We live in a society in this part of the world (the British Isles) that over-values alcohol and turns a blind eye to its numerous dangers just-because its legality isn’t in-question, while more psychologically-productive/useful drugs that are more correlated with peace (rather-than aggression, unlike alcohol in those-disposed people), introspection, sensorial enhancement and spiritual depth than a public nuisance and potentially serious health-problem are demonised. It’s just so deeply entrenched into the culture.

Ninastar you have to understand that the U.K. is still quite backwards in its approach to non-alcohol drugs. A bit of ketamine is allowed in private medical clinics and that’s it. The NHS isn’t interested. The government isn’t interested. Not yet. It’ll head in the right direction one day but it’s still in the stone ages as far as public policy laws go. I don’t know for-sure what’ll happen to you if you’re at the airport and caught in that really sticky situation but I wouldn’t chance it and just stick to the CBD on my way to the UK if I were you. A few misinformed police-officers (who do a great job when they’re chasing real crime, don’t get me wrong; I’m not anti-police, I think they’re awesome and do a very commendable job, I’m just anti-hypocrisy) still operate under the delusion that CBD is illegal and treat it in the same way as THC-derivatives (sometimes even seizing it on the spot, and I’ve seen this happen with just a regular CBD-vape) but that’s their problem. You’re safe with CBD. THC, not so much. You probably don’t want traces of that in your suitcase or vape.

Ugh that sucks bc I don’t like how the smell lingers on you/your friends/family having to be like assaulted by the smell or whatever

I don’t even know what would be local. Now I’m paranoid I’m going to have it on me without realising and then getting detained violently the second I get to the UK

[Ninastar]

Omg would I be denied entry even if I’m a British born dual citizen? I have opened a pot of worms and I do not like it

I’d stick to carrying universally legal cannabinoids on you (CBG, CBD, presumably CBC, and so-on). I couldn’t tell you what could happen if you’s caught with THC. I ’on. know. I really don’t.

[Mystic Mock]

If I were to pick something more serious.

The US has a better justice system compared to Europe as a whole tbh.

I can't think of anything for Canada still.

I think she has a reasonably new Show airing doesn't she?

Which is mad impressive given how Showbiz can be really harsh on older women.
