If TV could have done that, I think we'd have won in 2020. I think the economic argument is the strongest one to put forward to the Coalition of Delusion. The laws are liberalising around medicinal cannabis already, so things have improved within the last year or two (as season 2 of the Dakumentary demonstrates). So, really, it's about mobilising as a grassroots cannabis community and demanding consumption centres as a way of reducing cannabis harm and improving the relationship between weed smokers and the squares. I think there's also room to advocate for MDMA reform; people are starting to talk about MDMA in public, and I think that's reflected in the sewerage tests that the Police make to establish the drug profiles of communities (yes, they check our waste). - Meth isn't really my area; that's a whole other kettle of fish. - Weeded Out is not produceable because I'm firmly refusing to produce it. I wrote the script, and I get to say 'I'm selling it or I'm using it in my book'. That's totally valid, and I'd much rather hear from people who are keen to help me with my books and the publishing elements. I'd love it if I got paid for those scripts, though; that's why I've mentioned it as an option. 💰
