If we’re not careful, Damian Marley thinks corporations will ruin cannabis culture

Wow. The pipes on those guys. That's a powerful combo.

[riser4]

i’m getting so sick of the anti-weedbangelicals, that i’m about ready for big ass corps to invest a gazzilion dollars into a gifuckinormous industry just to shut the fuckers up.
might change how weed is sold might not but at least the poor ass bible thumpin devils lettuce bakers living in their backward thinking community’s will have a stoners chance to see legal weed.

Painful truth.

Well, I can say that last night I guinea pigged some erl I make for my cancer patient neighbors and close friends and holy fuck, I tripped ballz. Felt like I was on ayahuasca falling down the rabbit hole and thought, 'I remember being this fucked on weed in the past.' Then I thought, 'No, I never got this fucked up.'

[Bobby Stainless]

of course they will but then we'll get a craft industry like beer and it will be all good again if not better

I'd just like to start growing again.

[Thaleia]

I'd just like to start growing again.

Ever consider a move to Canada?! We have over 100 licensed producers, and about two of them are decent. There is so much complete garbage on the legal market. Early days, obviously, but besides low potency, over dried and no cure weed, we've got complete rookie shit like bugs, recalls from using banned pesticides, mold etc.

Right? Someone up thread posted about adding erl to their coffee and said it was 25mg. I just about died! 25mg!!! Holy smokes. I had one hit off my vape yesterday of Chocolope live resin which was just enough to lift my spirits and get me moving instead of sitting around moping over my cat that got hit on Tuesday.

Cannabis use for fun is 'sinful behaviour,' B.C. bishops tell Catholics

A letter by the bishops warns that 'the mere fact that an activity is made legal by the government does not automatically mean that it is morally acceptable'
Catholic bishops in British Columbia and Yukon have endorsed medical marijuana use, but condemned recreational pot smoking as contrary to the teachings of the church.

In a letter posted online in late November, the bishops — six from B.C. and one from Whitehorse — warn that “the mere fact that an activity is made legal by the government does not automatically mean that it is morally acceptable.” Recreational cannabis became legal in Canada on Oct. 17, one of the signature accomplishments of Justin Trudeau’s government.

But the letter from all six B.C. bishops and the one Yukon bishop distinguishes between therapeutic uses, such as controlling for pain and nausea, and toking for fun. In the former, the letter states, impairment “can be accepted as a foreseen but unintended secondary effect of the drug’s beneficial use.” Medical cannabis has been legal in Canada for nearly two decades.

“When there is no genuine medical need for using a drug and it is used merely to cause inebriation, it is sinful behaviour,” the bishops state.

This isn’t the first time Catholic leaders in Canada have condemned cannabis legalization. In June, when Bill C-45, the Cannabis Act, passed in Parliament, the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops wrote in a letter, which was also endorsed by the Chair of the Canadian Council of Imams, that legalization was “lamentable,” and that it would have “disastrous effects for so many people.”

The catechism of the Catholic Church, a collection of doctrine, lambastes the use of drugs except on “strictly therapeutic grounds,” and says drugs inflict “very grave damage on human health.” The bishops, in their statement, suggest that Catholics “who knowingly engage in this behaviour should discuss this with a priest in Confession.”

In explaining their reasoning, the letter says that people under the influence might choose to do things they wouldn’t while sober. It also argues there are health effects, and that some can become addicted to cannabis. As well, the bishops say that marijuana “artificially alters consciousness … which can be a way of avoiding challenges that we are facing in our lives.”

“This kind of psychological pain ought to be alleviated by legitimate means,” they conclude.

Pope Francis, who’s won some fondness in liberal quarters for the occasional progressive pronouncement — he wanted to revisit a ban on remarried Catholics receiving the Eucharist, for example — said in 2014, when speaking to leaders of global anti-drug agencies, that “attempts, however limited, to legalize so-called ‘recreational drugs’ are not only highly questionable from a legislative standpoint, but they fail to produce the desired effects.

“Let me state this in the clearest terms possible: The problem of drug use is not solved with drugs. Drug addiction is an evil, and with evil there can be no yielding or compromise,” he said.

The Post reached out to all offices of all the signatories; two of them were unavailable and five didn’t respond to the interview request.

Heh. The Catholic church. Another swing and a miss in an attempt to remain relevant in today's world.

Fuck. I must have a high tolerance. I’ve been trying to dial in my erl coffee doses thanks to fucking alpy [emoji849]. First gram went in like 2 days so I’ve been trying to dial it back to find the right dose. It’s definitely more subtle of a high this way but love the duration, onset, no lung work, etc. Its definitely more of an underlying high and not like a dab to the face. Nice change of pace.

[wyeaster]

25mg is barely noticable to me, which is a bummer.

That's a sin. Drink this wine instead! It's ok, it's jesus blood!

Would be better if they worked it into the mass instead of fighting it.

"Drink his blood, take a hit of the Holy Spirit, amen."

Somewhere out there is a priest who is dying to load up his thurible with dank weed instead of incense one Sunday morning.
