Yeah, I was kidding because of the fires, but you are correct. Teslas, when driven hard, eat through tires. All that torque needs grip, and so the tires are a grippy compound which typically equates to higher wear. A few friends bought them (before Elon showed his true colours), when they first got them and did the acceleration run with each eager passenger the tires were bald in no time.

I had to check if we were in the same family/circle. Besides the one situation I mentioned, what you described happened happened to a family friend also. Quite a scary time for those around the person that didn't know what was happening to them (because isolation had led to less interaction), but luckily the ones that got hints took them in to make sure they were OK. And turned out it was bad psychosis and required a few weeks hospitalization.

I'm a let people do what they want guy, but claiming marijuana is harmless is dangerous.

Yeah just could let it sit with people believing its causation

As a former Brit, we like crunch in sandwiches by adding potato chips to them.

You are being down voted but this exact thing happened to somebody I know. The repeal of criminalization, without a better education plan, gave them the idea that "Oh its fine now". They became addicted to smoking it, spent all day every day just hitting a bong. Stopped working, had to repeat a year at uni to get courses on track. They've had to completely abstain, or they fall back into the spiral. Some people get addicted to alcohol, some its another drug entirely.

I don't have skin in the fame either way, but this is interesting https://poppot.org/2023/04/17/child-abuse-deaths-linked-to-thc-top-300/

It's real, a person I know went through it. They basically just smoked a bong all day, every day. Creates a paralysis like effect on your intestines, so stuff doesn't go down has to come out

That's correlation though. The reason you get prescribed antidepressants is a bias pick for already being a risk to self.

Yep, my now canadian colleague changed after he got his citizenship. He then voted for the party that was going to block immigration. Like WTAF dude, it is how you just got here.
