There are no circumstances when consuming pot is good. It always damages the brain. Every pot smoker I have ever met has been the dregs of society. Whether it's the antifa tattoo "artist" that my best friend married and eventually divorced (Thank god), or the redneck bums that lived in trailers in rural Georgia and ranted about republicans, they have all been poor nobodies. That is not so with gamers.
Every comedian you’ve ever liked smoked pot, and I think you undersell the overlap between 420-enjoyers and gamers, because in my experience it’s been nearly 1:1 lol.
It sounds like you’re describing fentanyl addicts, over half of Americans have tried pot and it’s legal in more and more states. Honestly, there probably are some harms (with chronic use, and which mostly go away with abstinence), but I state confidently they’re far smaller than the harms caused by alcohol. If your response is “alcohol is degenerate too”, then atleast you’re consistent lol, but the question was “how to chill while gaming” and I think those are both valid answers
You assume I have ever watched a comedian or even comedy in general. Laughter is either a defensive mechanism or latent psychopathy. Either you are the target, or someone else is. After all, many people laugh when a man gets kicked in the testicles, and that is anti-empathetic behavior. Comedians are also in the same category as actors, lawyers, doctors, bankers, and politicians, and should ultimately suffer the same punishment.
Of the gamers I know, it's less than 1 in 10 that partake in pot while gaming. If you hang out with degenerates, don't be surprised that they are all degenerate.
They weren't fentanyl addicts, fentanyl wasn't a thing. They were pot smokers. Every potsmoker is a democrat or worse. The harms of alcohol are temporary unless you partake excessively. Even then the long term effects affect the liver and not the brain. The effects of pot are not temporary. I'd rather be around someone who is currently drunk than someone who regularly smokes pot, even if they are not currently partaking. The former will be back to normal the next day, the latter will always be a flaming liberal. They are incapable of higher order thinking, so they cannot even realize the damage done to their brain. It is much like severe altitude sickness, where in just a few moments a person is no longer capable of rescuing themselves do to decreased cognitive function. A pot smoker can't even realize how bad they are after just a few months of partaking. They are just intolerable people.
How to chill with gaming is to play a different game? Play something non competitive, that makes you think, like Factorio or KSP. Play a game that you can use OP mods with out a problem like Rimworld. You don't have to play normie crap. I especially don't want drunks and potheads ruining others games. They are almost identical to having a hacker on the opposing team. Not only can they not perform, which isn't that big of a deal, they hurt their team by wasting resources or teamkilling or blocking LOS or , in games with collision, bumping you and throwing your aim and pushing you into line of fire or blocking your retreat. Even in less competitive games like ARK they are fuckups that kill your dinos by downing them after crashing into the water or in games like Starcitizen, they crash entire servers by filling your ship with ground vehicles and trying to drive them around the hallways. I hate them.
That is not what I said and you know it. I shouldn't have to explain how laughing at a "joke" at your expense is a process to prevent you from attacking a greater power than you, and is part of hiding resentment. I shouldn't have to explain how laughing at clown world prevents actually fixing clown world. Laughing instead of crying is in fact a defensive mechanism. As a white straight male, I am target number 1 for any comedian.

“Laughing is for potheads and psychopaths”
Well that’s certainly one of the more extreme takes I’ve ever seen on standup

So fuck off with your pot fueled straw man.
