It’s hard not to stack up all the ways to self-numb/fly away and wonder if there was a long term plan afoot. Especially if you add fentanyl to the list. Sure, weed may arguably be at the lower end of the consciousness-altering scale but the desire to forget or enhance or need to feed a demon all share a common cause - ‘Something is missing’.

To this point, as Buddha once said, satisfying desires is like drinking saltwater. Freedom from desire - also translated as ‘contentment’ - these days is not even recognised as.... desirable. 🤣
