Life after drugs ?

Lame question but I need some suggestions for hobbies? Preferably where can meet some new pals.
My friends have all turned into assholes or got married and had children so don't socialise any more. I'm down to just a couple of friends who I still see now and they are hardcore stoners so never want to do any thing other than smoke.
I don't really do any drugs parties any more which was sadly one of my main social hobbies that got me meeting people...
Anyone here relate? Got any suggestions?

i deff can relate!
My group of 7 friends is down to like 3 people not married with kids. Im not in the "party" stage of my life anymore too
I got some dogs to keep me motivated to exercise, started working out at home, started snowboarding, and started floor hockey.
I still smoke weed like a mofo, but now i actually do shit when i smoke. why smoke and chill, when u can smoke a fatty after hiking 5 kms in the woods

Mycology, snowboard, and instruments/music are my hobbies and you can meet a lot of like minded people through them.

Go outside, brah.
Hike, bike, swim, climb, kayak, snowboard, whatever. Find other groups of people who do these things.

well there are all sorts of social groups. If you are like me and avoid any organized group type of shit (yep I still carry some of that 90s punk anarchy habit) then it may be pretty difficult to find friends outside of work, school, or elsewhere.
Keep in mind social clubs and organizations are just made up of people like you and me and if you find something you like, whether thats an art class or a wine tasting club or NORML, you should be able to find a few tolerable people to start hanging out with
and if you still can't stand all that organized social "civility" then ditch the group after a while

I just spend time to myself. I have good friends and family, but theyve got families and shit. the few that dont smoke a lot of weed. I just spend my time studying, reading, making music, or trying my hand at various small projects (making drugs, soap, other DIY household stuff).
I get a lot of enjoyment being by myself.. If i could afford to travel that's all I would do.

find out what you like?
you aren't going to find something you like from people you don't know on the internet man, you are going to need to put yourself out there and find out what you enjoy.
poetry music drawing rock collecting? competetive eating pornography cooking etc... ..... ...
You know what you like, just realize that it is better than drugs

I'm buying new DJ equipment and getting further into that as a more legit hobby.
I quit smoking weed as of yesterday and I probably won't be doing drugs very much anymore, other than drinking, but life will go on I guess

Everything that can fit between two slides and is able to transmit light. Once I caught this frog, opened it up and took little tissue samples. There were creepy trippy fuckers with beating hairs eating the frogs liver and heart 
Probably the deadliest thing I've looked at is brain cancer:

Can you post a picture of your scope? I'd really like to check it out

I like using music to access drug states of mind even without drugs.
