Gotham Athletes

Despite producing a majority of the county's best, arguably the world's best, martial artists and gymnasts, athletes from Gotham are not allowed to compete in international events, particularly if it's a contact/combat event like martial arts. This is because 1) the various rogue chemical attacks will pop up on a drug screening test as enhancing drugs and 2) in combat/contact events Gothamites tend to be...overly aggressive.

Gotham has protested that no one has been permanently crippled for life. Various sports committees do not care or listen. Gotham is on very thin ice when it comes to national events or even inter city events. This is one of the reasons Gotham Knights frequently loses, too many penalties.

Certain drugs used in chemical attacks by rogues, particularly the Joker and Scarecrow, do in fact work as performance enhancers. Generally it just doesn't do the one suffering any good since they're dealing with things like full body paralysis or mental torture. The antidotes relieve the suffering but everything still shows up in blood tests after the fact. It actually takes a year or more for certain factors to be entirely removed. The batfamily cannot compete in any sort of official event because of constant exposure despite their best efforts to avoid via rebreathers and taking out villains before chemicals can be released. Jason is particularly NOT happy about this since there are potentially addictive components and that is a major trigger for Jason. Scarecrow suffers since no one will let Jason near the Joker. It does give Dick Grayson, noted gymnast, a good excuse for not competing in the Olympics even though everyone knows he'd sweep the event.

Ray had his Oprah moment but instead of giving people cars he gave them drama.

what would you want as proof? A drug test? No offense but some people will really bend over backwards to not have their worldview where he’s never touched a joint disrupted //

FR though. Its a bit of a pet peeve of mine when people push back against this so hard. He's written songs that are overtly about being high. The whole Rancho de la Luna experience was openly influenced by psychedelics, Taylor has been open about the fact that she had a substance abuse problem during the years she was with Alex (that didnt stop at alcohol), and then there are all the TLSP era interviews/performances which anyone who does even a little research on what it looks like when people use certain drugs would be able to tell they're under the influence.

Also, let's not forget the line "do you ever celebrate your dark side, then wish you never left the house?" Coming from an otherwise reserved person who just got off a tour that was characterized by very public drug-fueled antics... I don't think that's all this line is about, but like 👀

idk, man. Seems really hard to deny. And I don't know why anyone would want to. I think Alex's drug use says a lot about him and not to say that he does it responsibly, but he doesn't seem to be an addict either, so I don't see how acknowledging it diminishes him in any way - it just gives us a better understanding of him.

well said

Dr. Elizabeth Bright - Adrenal Function and Cannabis

Why is taking any form of cannabis not a good idea for anxiety? I explain how cannabis changes how you respond to stress--not in a good way.
