“Drugs are good — drugs are so good that they may become the only source of pleasure in one’s life.” Those may not be words that you would expect from someone in charge of a national drug policy, but Dr. João Goulão knows what he’s talking about. On January 9, a crowd of about 75, […]
RI’s medical marijuana program has undergone several iterations since it was made into law in 2006, evolving from a program widely known for supporting patient rights and access to one dominated by money and politics. Recent proposed changes to the program would increase the number of compassion centers to nine from three, which is a […]
On November 20, the US House Judiciary Committee took a huge step toward ending the prohibition of marijuana when they voted to pass the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement (MORE) Act. True to its name, the legislation would not only remove cannabis from the federal controlled substances list (where it currently sits at schedule 1, […]
There were significant changes made to RI cannabis policy in last year’s budget submitted by Governor Gina Raimondo, involving both the medical marijuana program and the newly legalized hemp regulations. The House Finance Committee also added a provision to the state budget that would require all new cannabis regulations to be “subject to approval by […]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: In my opinion, cannabis is WAY safer than alcohol. But what happens when the two are combined? I’m not talking about getting crossfaded after you decide to take a puff or two after a night of drinking — I’m talking canna-beverages. Weed beer and wine have […]
Unless you’ve been avoiding the news (which is honestly understandable these days), you’ve probably heard recently about the dangers of vaping. This week we saw the sixth confirmed death from the mysterious vape-related illness that seems to be sweeping the nation. Although we have yet to see any cases in RI, the RI Department of […]
H.P. Lovecraft wrote these words in 1936, describing a psychoactive plant that may sound familiar to some readers: “I had encountered at last one of those curious mirage-plants about which so many of our men told stories. Anderson had warned me of them, and described their appearance very closely – the shaggy stalk, the spiky […]
Let’s face it, smoking weed at music festivals is nothing new — 50 years ago Woodstock became the earth mother of the modern music festival experience, and you better believe people were sparking up in the fields at Yasgur’s farm. And they weren’t the first ones, either — marijuana and music have been a match […]
Friends, family and complete strangers often express to me their interest in the benefits of medical marijuana, but hesitate when I ask them if they have considered becoming a medical marijuana patient. Their hesitation often has to do with the doctor approval process, navigating the application or their fear of being placed on some government […]
The distinctions between food, drugs and medicine can be unclear and overlapping, and the lines separating them are often contrived by human institutions. One such entity is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which is now becoming tangled up in the regulation of the CBD products that are the fastest-growing new health food craze. Industrial […]
