Is this real legalization like in Canada, or fake legalization like most other places?

If a tourist can't buy it from a store, fly to a different city/state domestically with it, and then smoke it at a designated airport smoking area outside the terminal... I struggle to see that as full 'legalization'.

If you are prohibited from doing all those things, it just seems like a different version of prohibition. Step in the right direction though, sure.

But... alcohol should be legal, no? Despite the harm it causes, prohibition simply does not work.

Cannabis can also cause harm (albeit less harm than alcohol) but should also still be legal. And other drugs like fentanyl (arguably) cause more harm than alcohol...but should also be legal.

Prohibition is literally never a realistic solution to any drug or drug problems. Not a single country has ever had success.

Dealerships are literally the worst place to take a vehicle for a repair. They are in the car selling business, not the car fixing business.

At which point they hire a good lawyer and thus continue to use money to fix anything.

60% of the time it works every time.

Sal is latin (and also French to this day) for salt. Salary referred originally to the amount of salt you received as payment.

Where does the letter begin and shirt end?

Historically this is actually extremely common.

"Appreciate their work" is a pretty weak suggestion too...

I imagine those beside the ocean must have figured out what happens when boiling sea water. But I guess it was scaling it that was an issue?

Tons of English phrases and words have salty origins, like salary.

Tipping landlords makes the same amount of sense as tipping dentists or food servers: none.

I struggle to see Japan as a bastion of freedom lol. Fun place to visit for sure, but between the archaic drug laws and suicide forests I'm not sure they are a society others should be modeling themselves after.
