If Your Post Contains References to Stimulant Use, We Kindly Ask That You Label the Post Using Our New Post Flair.

I just enabled post flairs in this sub and created one for “Stimulants”.

This change was made in response to concerns brought up in [this thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/aneros/comments/n5jpyy/can_we_separate_this_sub_into_two_categories/).

Any other post flairs you all would like to see on this subreddit?

  1. Not being pedantic but by stimulant use do you mean any drug?

  2. Why stimulants tho? I mean sure, but i feel like that’s a weird and rather unfitting term to use. Caffeine is a stimulant, would we need to add that flair ?

    I feel like whoever decided that the new flair was necessary did not research for very long. Or at all.

    Just a hint: classic stimulants classes are

    – Amphetamines
    – cathinones
    – phenidates
    – xanthines (where caffeine is in)
    – tropanes (cocaine etc)
    And a various class that for example includes nicotine

    None of these categories include THC, ethanol (alcohol)

    And as MDMA is very popular to some people: that would be an “entactogen” NOT a stimulant.
    Weed on the other hand is an “entheogen” NOT a stimulant.

    Poppers are a bit weird since they don’t really fit in any category besides “inhalant” – they are alkyl nitrites or one of the hundred derivatives. But again, besides a notable euphoria it is NOT a stimulant whatsoever.

    No offense intended, but at least get it right.

    Oh and if someone says “just illegal stuff”, well every country has a slightly different legal status for various substances so that’d be kinda pointless.

    Sorry if this went too far, I’m just a very enthusiastic person in general with some knowledge in chemistry. And someone who’s always been fascinated by psychoactive substances.
