I'm really confused as to why these articles make statements as if we all thought it was good for us. We're inhaling combusted plant materials, OFC it's not healthy. We do it because it makes this god awful planet a little more tolerable for the time we're stuck on it, not to be able to live here longer.
Because a significant number of people thinks and wants to keep thinking that weed is completely harmless irrespective of any evidence to the contrary (which to be fair there's not much of, but it's not like there's none).
