I've always liked "golf and all the problems that come with it only exists because cishet men are scared to ask each other if they want to go for a walk".

If only we had a party in power that was on the side of the labour movement. That being such a central thing they have it as their name. Oh well.

Yep plenty of people use it for sleep, myself included. And I don't have a lot of knowledge on the physical effects of weed (so still do your own research, don't take a random internet persons words as fact) but as the sleep quality thing goes, I think you are right in that. But I also think it depends on the person. Like for instance you may get worse sleep quality sure, but might find it hard to sleep at all. If the weed does get you to sleep but with not as good quality, then that's better than no/only a little sleep right? Also with tolerance most people don't get the increase in heart rate as much. ROA is a factor too, like you'd be better off taking than edible than having a smoke to get to sleep and stay asleep.

Different terpenes have different effects though. People can use weed to stop themselves having seizures.

Used to love this song and listen to this band so much in my late teens/early 20s. I do remember with these lyrics wondering at that time if that's how it would go. Funny to get to my 30s now and be like, "yep, hard relate"

Ah yeah I'm very with you on that, I'm aware these exist and I'm a massive advocate. One of the things we should be doing to counter the climate crisis housing-wise is us living in high density ways. To make that much less of a hell for people with sensory issues then these proper noise insulated places are a must.

Edit: It's also important on a disability rights level. For instance people with severe MCAS (an actually very common but very underdiagnosed condition) can have essentially an allergy to vibrations. So things like power tools being used just in the area around them can literally give them reactions like seizures

Even without cars, for someone like myself they are still loud. It's a subjective thing. There could be no cars used around my home at all but there could still be a family with loud kids, or someone who regularly blasts music or people using power tools often and so on. That isn't to say these things are inherently bad or anything, just that for me I've dealt with too much aggravating noise in various places. Now I live in a van and just come into cities when I please.
