thanks.  posting images from FB worked here for the longest time.  looks like zuck closed that loophole (soup can optional).

That’s what we call in the biz: a soup-hole

House of Representatives to vote by end of month to federally legalize pot.  Most are sure it will pass, but not sure what Senate will do.

Crazy.  Donald Trump looking to have a real October surprise here, if he can claim weed was made legal under his watch.

Slam dunk, reelected.

Fox News reporter in DC: "Not a lot of violence or any kind of real commotion here, primarily, perhaps, because of just how much marijuana is being smoked. The smell of that is quite pungent in the air right now."


Too good not to share


Not sure if that's exactly what Michelle meant with, "when they go low, we go high."

Page 17 through 27, of David Wallace's Infinite Jest . . . is one of the greatest, diatribe exposes of weed usage, that I, have ever read.

Fuck.  Nailed it.

For the life of me I don't know why we aren't further along in legalizing weed. The feds continue to piss away shitloads of money by ignoring it. Meanwhile medical MJ cards are freaking expensive.

“We are going to move forward with the legalization of marijuana in Virginia. I support this, and I’m committed to doing it the right way,” Northam said in a news briefing Monday. He said “the time is right” and pointed out that Virginia would be the first state in the South to legalize marijuana.


Ok this is some weird math
Based on records from other states, JLARC found that decriminalization could be expected to reduce marijuana arrests by about 60 percent and that legalization would reduce them by 84 percent.

So even legal there will be arrests 16% of the time?

What kind of practical difference does legalizing make?


You can’t drive while smoking a joint? Can you be in a moving car? Parked car? Walking down street?
Do cops usually enter your house to make sure you are not lighting up?

tell that to the close to 30k (mostly minorities) who have been arrested for possession in the state of Virginia  in 2018 and now have a record

almost, but not quite:

say an area (a city, a state, whatever) currently experiences 100 weed-related arrests a year.  if they were to decriminalize, they could expect that number to fall to 40/year, and with legalization it would be 16/year.

wait, you can be arrested for weed in areas where it's legal?  indeed you can.  just like you can be arrested for alcohol even if it's legal: where you consume it, how old you have to be, did you cause an accident and adit to consumption, how much you have in your possession (only applies to weed), etc.
