If that is your definition then I definitely do not pass as a good person. I have many vices. I drink, I smoke weed, I play on the computer too much. I make a lot of money and I spend probably more on myself than I should and I should share more. I used to not eat meat but I have been again for a few years now and it’s a constant feeling of guilt there, too.
But I would never lie or steal or cheat and that’s kind of where I would set the bar.
The idea of “vices” there is really interesting to me. What about weed and video games is “bad,” other than that they’re pleasurable?
I have the kind of mental illness where I spent 20 years feeling genuinely bad for stealing a stamp in first grade, but I can’t really see me getting stoned as a “bad” thing.
I relate pretty heavily - weed is the only thing I’ve found after years of therapy etc that turns my brain off and lets me enjoy things. It’s just so goddamned nice to have the option to enjoy food and music and just being.
I do edibles mostly - it helps with the cost and stink factors. It helped in ruining my marriage but it was doomed anyway.
I am a burnt out loser who can’t go a day without weed
You’re thinking about it wrong. You’re using the language of the oppressor.
You’re a medicinal marijuana patient. You suffer from an illness you didn’t earn or ask for. Cannabis is the medicine that manages your symptoms. If you don’t take your medicine, your symptoms get worse.
