The sad truth about sex and weed in space

There are certain Earthly functions that are constants in space too. Mastication, defecation, and urination are chief among them. Fornication, on the other hand, has no precedent in orbit; neither does inhalation, as far as we know. NASA doesn’t allow its astronauts to consume cannabis and it’s gone to great lengths to avoid any interplanetary boning. That’s not to say that nobody, neigh nothing, has made it in space; rats and Japanese freshwater fish are among Earth’s few galactic fuckers. There’s no telling who or what else might be getting it on out there, but that’s a question for another day. As for getting high, way, way up high, a trio of Kentucky-based companies reportedly has plans to cultivate cannabis on the International Space Station. 

For now, life in space sounds like a bummer. Y’all can beam us up when post-coital joint smoking becomes a thing on Mars.
