You Wanna Pizza Me?: A Guy and His Pie brings pizza with pizzazz to PVD!
If you’ve been tooling around Rhode Island foodstagrams in the past few months, there’s no way you haven’t come across A Guy and His Pie and their amazingly mouthwatering pizza photography! What began as a therapeutic way to beat quarantine boredom (and pivot from decidedly #basic sourdough bread making) turned into a fantastic business, bringing […]
What’s Cooking?: Vaccination goals in RI are a recipe for failure
At the weekly COVID-19 press conference on Thursday, April 8, Gov. Daniel McKee and RI Department of Health (DoH) Director Nicole Alexander-Scott made clear that economic reopening plans were conditioned upon a goal of vaccinating 70% of everyone in the state to approach herd immunity. While a laudable aspirational goal, it is in my opinion […]

Equity, Social Justice, and Weed: Introducing Yes We Cannabis
Humanity has a peerless ability to make a mess of even the most beautiful of things, and for quite some time, cannabis has been right there at the top of the heap, entangled with racist and anti-immigrant motivations ever since Federal prohibition reared its ugly head in 1937. In Rhode Island, the situation is dire. […]

Camouflaged to look like yellow street signs, his work catches you by surprise with messages meant to bolster spirits during the pandemic. Davis […]
Up in Smoke
We asked Chris Langevin at The Joint on 6 to break down the latest cannabis strains available at RI compassion centers, what medical conditions they treat and what effects you can expect. Ghost Train Haze (available at Slater Center): First bred by rare dankness, Ghost Train Haze is a sativa cross of Ghost OG and […]
Made To Be Broken
Marijuana prohibition isn’t the most ridiculous law on the books in Rhode Island, and these questions will test your knowledge of the laws that are. Knowing the right answer just might keep you out of jail! Next time you ride the trolley, whatever you do, do not throw this liquid (do we even have fucking […]
Lunar Notes
Aries: You segue from an “all about me” to a more collaborative stance. This does not mean you give up your independence or that “me first” attitude, but you do look for folks with whom you share some common ground. Any group efforts are not without their vigorous discussions. You speak your mind because you have […]
The Magic of Magic Mushrooms: Psilocin and psilocybin and their effects on depression
Cannabis is slowly becoming legalized, so it makes sense that other natural drugs could follow suit. Hallucinogenic mushrooms are one of those drugs, itching to become legalized, so that they may be appreciated for their medicinal potential. They are a polarizing topic, but understanding the benefits, especially when discussing depression and other anxiety disorders, is […]
