A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Wouldn't it be nice if instead of just bars with alcohol, there were establishments for people to consume cannabis while eating, playing board games, and socializing? (lemmy.world)

If anything, cannabis seems like a much better (and more profitable) drug around which to build a leisurely establishment.

If they had a place like that here, the cops would post up 24/7, DUI all day baby.

They don't post up around bars 24/7 and alcohol related dui's cause thousands of deaths a year.

Yea hmmm. I guess I have a really shitty opinion of my local cops. They know everyone, and I'd imagine the clientele at a weed bar would be the kind that's more favorable to fk with, for them. They do post up at MAT clinics for sure, and bust people cause they can get a free dui charge, plus jail time, in most instances, cause everyone's got records. I'd like to think by the time I see a weed bar we'd have some more changes as well. Drunk driving is bad.
