A Tag to Welcome All Drug Content. What Do You Think?
If you follow my work, you know that I like to write about drugs and drug culture (mostly weed and psychedelics but they are all interesting). Well, just a little while ago I was having a conversation in the comments on such a post and the idea of creating a drug related tag that could serve as a repository for all the great drug content that is floating around this site came about. So, I wanted to bring this idea to anyone that is interested and get any feedback that you may wish to share. Plus I would like to know if there are tags with a similar concept that are already being used with any real frequency (if so it may be better to use them instead but I haven't seen one yet).
From what I have seen and from my own experience, we are spreading our drug content over a lot of different tags. Cannabis, marijuana, weed, psychedelic, psychedelics, drug , and drugs, all already exist as tags but someone who posts in "drug" may not think to check "psychedelics" to find similar content. In a sense, we are splitting up what could be one large community that could have real power to support and curate good drug culture content. This not to say that you can not use other tags too but maybe we could reserve one space for the new all encompassing drug tag.

This is just a thought on my part but I would love to know if anyone else is interested in doing this type of thing. I am too small to make this happen myself but if we can get enough people to start doing it, I think that we can build something really interesting and beneficial to drug culture content creators.
As far as the tag itself goes, I am not sure what to use. The first thing that came to my mind was intoxi-nation but I am open to using something different if you have a better idea. What the name is doesn't really matter as long as we all use the same tag for our drug culture content. I care about the community not the name.

I hope to hear what you think about all this. If you are on board, please share the idea in whatever way that you see fit. I, personally, think it might be nice if you all wrote your own post that introduces the tag to your followers in your own words. It is more personal than a resteemed article and might get more attention for the tag which is my goal.
Peace.

If people like stuffing their head with cake and die obese while shooting insulin they can blog about it ...
if you catch my drift if im allowed to quote Henry Fonda on the matter
i think you will find your niche already present here but there's always people who get this silly idea they get to tell others what is good content and what is not ... i prefer the bubble universe, with or without a block button it seems to be forming slowly ... i never knew homesteading was so widespread today as since i found out how much its present here for instance, i think decent content on any kind of psycho-active substance is hard to find due to moral majority and pc-principal, not to mention ned flanders being worried baby jesus ears will bleed and kids will shoot up hi schools for watching Elmer Fudd uncensored hunting bugs.
I personally prefer my drug-related content objective with not too much 'activism' in it ... informing is not quite the same as advertising the benefits of use and its important to understand not everyone is capable of holding the line until it become Ab-use
that said, my meagre vote, i folllow back tit for tat if you do and the message gets through i'll be sure to resteem if its within my personal sphere of what i like on my feed (and i talk a lot ... but most of the time i dont)
i say dont hold back, just do your thang, in 7 billion people theres always gonna be at least one who cant handle what you're saying
its nowhere to be found these days, is it ?
I appreciate the input.
I wouldn't suggest telling any what to do with the tag and what I really mean is "not straight up spam" when I say "quality content" other than that and the type of abusive stuff you bring up, I would be fine with anything drug related being there.
I really just want to see a place were it is easier to find this sort of content without having to check six or eight tags. Plus it might help get more eyes on everyone's work if we all know where to look. If I see another tag that does that I will amend this to direct traffic to there.
I feel you on that ladt point for sure. I don't go out of my way to be a dick to anyone but I rarely care if offended them either. If one cares too much, they will lose everything that makes them themself in the attempt to please everyone else.
i wasnt implying that you would :) ... well then it looks like you found a hobby here hahah, be warned : education is a lifetime, not a job lol and also like my ex used to say : don't argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience .. but i doubt she came up with that herself ... its good to be appreciated btw ... i have a hard time holding back when people attack me too, like i said, its virtually impossible to not scare or offend anyone at all these days. The way of least resistance might simply be to just do one's thing and see what happens, plenty of marijuana talk already here as you'll find when you do a search, i havent seen too much on other "stufff" though ... people tend to be utterly careful fishing for that vote
Truth.
truth, like celebrity status often lies in the eye of the beholder ... its also a three-edged sword that can cut both parties aimed at and the wielder or observer at the same time. Grand theory of social and verbal relativity (hmz ... maybe i DID do a bit too much acid that year hahah)
Haha. Nice.
