Every state and their mother are looking to implement legal marijuana programs. While some of these states are more-or-less rolling out the red carpet for cannabis business people, others (cough, cough, New York) have put a hundred hoops made of red tape between entrepreneurs and legal weed. In true Texas fashion, the Lone Star state […]
It may be the worst thing to happen to the North Pole since the Abominable Snowman. In an effort to keep Alaska’s newly implemented legal cannabis market at bay, the town of North Pole has passed Proposition 7, a bill that will ban the sale of marijuana inside city limits. But that law won’t stand […]
Florida is probably going to pass a medical marijuana-legalizing measure next week. Polls have support of Amendment 2 topping 70 percent among voters, but the anti-MMJ peeps in the state are still going for a Hail Mary. After all, the same bill failed in 2014 by only two points, so it’s worked before. The medical […]
Not so fast, legal weed proponents of California. Just because the state is (almost definitely) going to legalize recreational marijuana after next week’s election doesn’t mean marijuana is actually going to be legal across the state. Cities all up and down the state are racing to put new bans and regulations in place to gum […]
Alaska is a state that does things at its own pace. It didn’t even join the union until 1959. And it took it almost two years after legalizing the recreational use of cannabis to actually have a legal sale. But don’t blame Alaska; you’d probably be slow too if you only had two hours of […]
While Facebook may be a reliable source for your uncle’s political rants and one trillion baby photos, the social media giant is not always the most reliable when it comes to sourcing the news. A misleading cannabis headline recently swarmed the company’s news feed, proclaiming “Cannabis kills cancer.” The headline was discussed in a recent […]
The new leader of the free world isn’t the only thing we’re voting for on November 8. Just in California, there are a whole mess of issues on the ballot, among them: repealing the death penalty, a slightly more strict gun law, making condoms in porn sex mandatory, repealing the plastic bag law for some […]
Halloween is a good time to remember that some things just don’t stay buried. Like, for instance, zombies, or, for another instance, myths that are perpetuated to cause hysteria but which have no basis in fact. Unfortunately for us all, the urban legend of the poison Halloween candy has returned from the grave just in […]
Maybe they’ll add bananas to the Schedule I controlled substances list now. When the DEA decided in their infinite witness not to reschedule marijuana from their list of the worst controlled substances in the US last spring, many were left scratching their heads. Cannabis has enjoyed a long shelf life in the Schedule I category […]
Roughly ten percent of Americans smoke cannabis and about the same percent are on antidepressants, so it stands to reason that there are approximately a shitload of millions of Americans who use both concurrently. Strangely, there is not very much research on what effect the two classes of drug have when used in combination (or […]
