Oh it is absolutely a privilege! Though it should not be, in the sense that it should be legal everywhere. Here in Oakland CA I can walk down the street and buy all the weed I want at the corner store. We have also decriminalized psilocybin mushrooms and other plant based substances including DMT. I had a very meaningful and healing experience aided by mushrooms with some close friends a few weeks ago, which involved opening up about some past shared trauma that a friend had been holding in, and led to a breakthrough in communication and togetherness.
