That’s a story that someone would make up who never smoked weed.
I’m a simple man. I see a possum spouting truth and I upvote.
Society doesn’t exist for the sole benefit of the upstanding and idealized. I want libraries to exist for those striving to gain education for self betterment yes, I want them to exist as places of entertainment and existence for those down on their luck as well, but also a place where a person who is intoxicated in a way where they aren’t causing a disturbance can embrace the beauty of the world is also a valuable function.
And shit, I wish there could be weed and acid/shrooms days at zoos. I’d love to trip at a zoo
A corollary to “everything is a dildo, if you’re brave enough” would be “every day at the zoo is an acid/schroom day, if you’re brave enough”
For a time, while I was in court trying to get custody of my son, I was only given like 2 hours of parental time with him, once a week. Drop-off point was an hour from my home, so there wasn’t really much I could do with him apart from go to parks (in the summer) and the library. It was a life saver for just giving me time to be a Dad. Public libraries are one of the greatest things in human society, just a place you can go to exist as a person. Almost nothing is expected of you apart from wearing clothes, shoes, don’t masturbate where people can see you, and respect the books.
I literally just finished a chapter of a book whilst toking a spliff, and then I see this meme lol.
I’m reading Blue Rage, Black Redemption if anyone is curious. I think I’m reaching the end, so I’m up for any recommendations perhaps autobiographical. The one I enjoyed before this was the NOFX Hepatitis Bathtub and Other Stories.
Have you read “South of the Pumphouse” by Les Clay pool? It’s not non-fiction, but it was the first book I thought of when I saw NOFX in your comment.
Does “The Electric Kool aid Acid Test” count as non-fiction?
