Alcohol can enhance social bonding; nicotine can enhance learning. But what is the best possible use case of cannabis? Can it serve a prosocial function in a specific context?
The only thing I can think of is that it can transiently “heighten” non-cognitive sensations, and so it may be useful for highly sensory experiences — anything from large meals to the highly sensory experience of a beach. This would be a general pleasure-amplifier, which may be worth the cannabis costs if the experience is highly sensory, and would also give us a better memory of the experience (possibly).
Is there any other “benefit” to it? I don’t think if enhances social bonds like alcohol, and its relaxation effects are too transient and come at a higher cost with more anxiety later on.
In a ludicrously-narrow application, I have a friend who can only tolerate eating fish after utilizing THC.
Incredible.
He and his wife joined me and mine on vacation. We were all staying on the coast and the other three of us wanted to go to a seafood restaurant for dinner one night. He asked that he not drive, consumed a gummy, and joined us.
