#2An alternate perspective could be that California is lagging the other western states on legalization exactly because of overreaching campaigns that don't acknowledge the conservatism in the middle and south of the state.
A previous cannabis legalization effort in California, IIRC, proposed to make cannabis consumption a protected employment class.

#3I mean I was pretty happy out here in the Midwest but you guys might pull me in with this one

#4I wonder if this could be the birth of the legal microdosing industry?

#5I think this is going to lead to a lot of unforeseen problems. Brick structures will be much more vulnerable once literally anyone can take one of these and become twice as large. And once you've had a mushroom, if you get the right kind of flower in your system you'd be an unstoppable fire-throwing menace. Then it doesn't matter what kind of gun control is on the books.
I just don't know what they're thinking.

#6You can currently buy psychoactive mushrooms in stores in The Netherlands.
Buying mushrooms illegally from a legit dealer in the US means making sure they have several uniform bags of the product. You want to make sure they're grown safely in a lab or farm. There are too many people who will go out and just pick mushrooms, which is incredibly unsafe.
Unless you're an actual mycologist, it's difficult to tell what's safe and what's toxic. There are even cases of mushrooms in the US that are toxic look exactly like an edible food variety in Asia; even down to identifying characteristics like spore prints. Entire families have gotten sick or even died as a result.
So from just a safety perspective this would be a good move. Humans used psychoactive substances for centuries, usually under the supervision of a shaman or some type of religious figure to undergo a journey. It's not so different than psychologist today looking to use mushrooms to treat serious mental conditions. We have the advantage today of knowing we're not really going on some kind of cosmic journey, but merely acknowledging how dependent we are on our minds giving us our rational view of the world; and seeing how that can be easily and radically changed.

I hope so.

#10I am going to laugh so hard when all these states legalize every drug and then for the next decade or so we end up with millions of people high as kites all the time and nothing of real value getting done! It will be like planet Miranda where everyone got so chill that they all just died!
Based on the poor quality of the service sector in Colorado, I'd say that state is already about there and that's with weed alone!
