Anybody can learn to grow plants. It just takes practice and learning. There's a gazillion YouTube videos on gardening and I'm sure there's tons on how to grow weed specifically.

I count roughly 15 cars in line, which could be as few as 15 people. All that space taken up for such few people...
My last Ford was a Focus with the dual clutch transmission, it was a complete fucking lemon (to the point where they were successfully sued over it and have done multiple recalls to fix it). I can excuse an automaker for the occasional shit car if their overall lineup is good and they're honest with customers, but they knew the transmission was majorly flawed and continued to manufacturer vehicles that used it anyway. I've had it refuse to shift while I was driving on the highway before, which left me redlining at maybe 45 MPH. Dangerous and it could have gotten someone killed. I will never buy another Ford.
Yeah, I'm vegan and still recognize the need for deer hunting in the US (and anywhere else where all their natural predators have been eliminated). I don't know of any other effective method for controlling their population when no other species exists to do it. I would be totally open to reintroducing wolves, bears, big cats etc to areas where they existed historically, but I just don't see enough popular support growing for that that it seems likely to happen anytime soon. People like their meat too much and wild predators kill free ranging livestock, plus I suspect most people are not going to want to worry about encounters while they're out in nature (see my link below for how things have been going with the red wolf re-introduction to North Carolina, US). I mean I'm an animal lover and it still makes me a tiny bit nervous when I go out into bear country in the wild parts of my state (not that that would stop me from supporting re-introduction). Lots of people are ignorant and don't give a shit about harming ecology if it benefits them in some way.
I'm a teacher and not only do I not make my kids do it (it's illegal to make a student say the pledge if you didn't know), I don't do it myself because I think it's fucking weird and inappropriate. My only rule is to remain quiet if you're not saying the pledge, out of respect to people who do want to observe it.
Something I've learned as a vegan is that it's pretty socially acceptable to kick vegans (and I guess vegetarians?) even among leftists. To the point where it's almost a meme in some vegan social media circles I used to frequent.
I don't expect shit from anyone. That said, when I'm at one I'm still going to ask if there are options, because why wouldn't I?
Try iNaturalist, it works pretty well. Also, learn plant morphology, makes it easier to narrow things down when you get a couple suggestions within the same genus or family.
Or at least don't waste it all drinking... I spent so much of my early 20s drinking and playing video games with my friends. While I made some great memories, it was excessive and I could have done a lot more with my time.
