Well you never know. I did have the pleasure of using a Thai bamboo bong many times that was brought home by a vet from Nam. In fact it was the first time I ever used one. They sure as hell knew what they were doing. Remember Thai sticks ? A friend of mine even scored a pound of Thai weed that we enjoyed for a whole summer in 73. Thai stick chicken ? Where does the line start ?

The government of Thailand just removed cannabis from its list of narcotic substances, which they hope will benefit the tourism and pharmaceutical industries.
Chickens could end up being the major beneficiary of the relaxation, as scientists in Chiang Mai have begun testing to see if cannabis could replace antibiotics in commercial farming.
Their findings, which have not yet been published, are that cannabis-supplemented chickens on an organic chicken farm suffered from fewer cases of avian bronchitis, and the quality of meat was judged to be superior, based on the amino acid and lipid profiles, as well as its tenderness, compared with non-supplemented chickens.
Do they make chicken bongs for direct delivery?

It all started when Ong-ard Panyachatiraksa, a farm owner in the north of the country licensed to grow medical cannabis, was trying to brainstorm what to do with all the extra leaves from the cannabis plants. He started giving them to his chicken brood, and then invited scientists to have a look.
Mass-use of antibiotics in commercial chicken production, is, just like in hospitals and schools, leading to the rise in antibiotic-resistant pathogens. The cannabis would offer a different avenue of biological support, without contributing to the already rampant problem.
The scientists from Chiang Mai University found, after studying 1,000 of Ong-ardâs chickens, that cannabis could help reduce farmersâ dependence on antibiotics, according to research lead Chompunut Lumsangkul, an assistant professor at the Universityâs department of animal and aquatic sciences.
Their working hypothesis is that the cannabis could be improving the chickensâ gut health. One of the major communicators with the immune system, a healthy, flourishing gut microbiota is key to staying fit for all lifeforms.
While it doesnât necessarily mean the gut microbes, or cannabinoids are killing bacteria and viruses that cause salmonella or avian flu, a healthier, fitter chicken can better defend against those with its innate immune system.
CB2 receptors cover many cells in animals. These receive cannabidiol, or CBD, which interacts with the immune-system. This was shown to increase protection against viral infection and replication COVID-19 better than the vaccine in some cases, as well as effectively reversing the overreaction from the immune system itself that was the leading cause of death in COVID-19 infections, the so-called âcytokine storm.â
The House of Representatives voted Friday to approve legislation that would decriminalize marijuana at the federal level and remove criminal penalties for certain cannabis-related offenses by a vote of 220-204.

That is a narrow vote. Should we expect this kind of legislation to pass the Senate now or is 2030 to 2040 a more realistic time line?
Selenium, as I have long understood its importance as a supplement, is the required catalyst needed to help or unlock the full benefits of other supplements such as Vitamin E and some others. I have taken it for some 30 odd years or so since I learned of its purpose for that reason. I used to know the full details off the top of my head but would have to look it up now. Just one of those things. Other supplements still taken since this enlightenment are zinc and Vitamin C. I have long ago quit taking E as an oral supplement due to problems with its sourcing and certain side affects.
My current list of supplements.
Selenium
Vitamins C, D and K
Zinc
Magnesium
Turmeric
Aged garlic extract
Ubiquinol (Co Q10)
Magnesium is another tricky one, with lots of quality issues.

I'm not worried. I know where mine comes from. Interesting, I take Selenium as a supplement. Must be doing something wrong.
The thing about trace nutrients is that you have to hit the sweet spot between too little and too much.

Here ya go westslope for an example of my point about making regulations.

I would just say that as with voting, it is not about who votes, but who counts the votes. Same with "rules". It is more about who writes them and why than what they actually are. I would say where there is a "rule" that means someone else has the last word, unless you are the one writing the rules.
The same applies in commerce. They are called entry barriers. The ones writing those rules make it as hard as possible to start up a new business to compete with their existing businesses. Happens everywhere, federal, state, county, local levels.

kurtster, I think we can agree that legislated regulations are necessary for public safety and for creating a fair level playing field for producers and service providers.
In principle, yes.
The ambiguity is over 'rules'.
Norms? Social conventions? Legislated regulations? Laws?
Any of those / all of those ? It's an analogy of an observation of "the system". How about this ... rules are only for how to play the game, not how to win the game. The rules are made so complicated that you spend all your time just trying to figure out what they are and how to comply and never end up playing the game. A fools errand / Gordian Knot
