“I don’t think America is going to be a better place when people of all ages, and particularly young people, are smoking pot,” Sessions said. “I believe it’s an unhealthy practice, and current levels of THC in marijuana are very high compared to what they were a few years ago, and we’re seeing real violence around that.”
yeah this platnum kush sure makes me more violent than those regs i used to smoke! wtf this is so fucking stupid

The Rohrabacher Amendment barely passed the two sessions where it has with ~90% of Republicans voting against. The White House might be able to lean on enough of them to make it happen.

warning, not a very political post...
my condition (crohn's) is on the list of MM qualifying diseases in NYC and I have kind of run out of conventional medicine options that don't have awful side effects, so I scheduled an appt with an MM registered doc for yesterday but then I cancelled it -- her fee for the initial evaluation/qualification appointment is 350 dollars and I know the cost of that first appointment is generally pretty high but I think can find someone more in the 150 range who's reputable.
Honestly I also can't really afford the monthly cost of $X hundreds that will ensue, but I hope I can figure it out (bright ideas: stop having a phone! Cancel my cable!). It's tempting to just go the illegal route tbh

toke up, Massachusetts
Gov. Charlie Baker today signed a bill that reshapes the state’s marijuana legalization law, kick-starting an 11-month sprint until pot shops can legally open statewide — during which officials will have to build an entire bureaucracy from the ground up.
Flanked by lawmakers key to crafting the legislation, Baker signed into law several changes to the ballot measure voters passed last November, including hiking the tax rate on sales from 12 percent to 20 percent. The state’s top leaders will now have to make several decisions, and quickly....

in the funny predicament of actually sort of dreading the legalization of cannabis in canada because it might mean i have to pay more/disrupt my supplier in some way. it's also pretty much decriminalized where i live and i smoke in public every day.

"I think there are a lot of really right-wing old, white people out there who don't really know what's going on still. But once the kids grow up and get a chance to get into the voting booth, I think we'll see a change like we have in the few states that have legalized it. That could be a long way off, but in the meantime I don't think anybody's ever had any problems buying weed if they wanted it—whether it was legal or not—so it's a problem that one day may be solved, but right now it's not solved at all. Actually, a lot of people throw it on stage, so it's not that hard for me to get. [Laughs]
"I think there's a lot of things out there to be concerned about. So yeah, I'm concerned about it. And I'm hoping that more and more Americans will get concerned about it, because anytime you get even the hint that some foreign country might have anything to do with controlling our elections, well, that's very disturbing to me, and I think it should be to every American out there. But when I get out on the stage I don't bring in the politics. I don't care if you're a Baptist, a Methodist, a Muslim, or what the hell you are, as long as you like our music and you come to hear us, you won't hear me say anything bad about anybody. But if you ask me my personal opinion, well, I'll tell you what I think."

the one across the street from us has died down a bit, but they are still very busy. I hear that they have moved to reusable glass packaging instead of plastic, which is nice.
