Trumpism over. The Virginia governor's race went dem.
Someone get Hoss a pacifier.

The man who wrote the anti-trans bill just lost to a trans woman.  Danica Roem - winner.

It's one of those, "Huh,...imagine that..." moments.  Coupled with the governor's election, Virginia may be backing away from the brink.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

On another front, Trump declared opioids a crisis, and appointed another anti-science commission to talk about it.  Lets see how thats going:


"Marijuana legalization will lead to more drug use, not less drug use, will lead to more death not less death, and the national institute of drug abuse has proven it. There is no reason, if I told you today that anything would make your child two and a half times more likely to be addicted to opioids, you would be getting them as far away from it as you possibly could."

Wow, the stupidity from people who apparently have no understanding about the many benefits of Cannabis.  I wonder if they have bothered to study what has happened in states where both medical and recreational MJ use have been legalized.  There is solid evidence out there that CBD and THC have a valuable purpose in steering people away from opioids. 

Just the sheer stupidity.  At what point will Trump declare the earth to be flat and appoint a commission to prove it?

Exactly.  And I know I make fun of Gary Johnston for his love of it, but as someone who used to partake as a youngster (and even a little as I got older finding out that smoking it alleviated huge migraines I got in the 90s), and also as someone who has taken opioids as part of a pain relief regimen (oxycodone to be exact) I can see how those drugs can be abused.  I almost fell into that trap after having some oral surgery done a couple of years ago but luckily I realized it early enough to stop them and switch back to OTC naproxen as my prescription was emptying.  Knowing how cannabis helped my headaches, I can only imagine what they do for all types of pain.  And we've read/seen/heard what CBD oil does for some children with seizures.  It does enough that it made a pretty well-respected neurosurgeon (Sanjay Guptu) complete reverse course on his opinions of it.

You don't have far to drive to get yours...well, the state anyway...I'm not sure how many dispensaries would be in southern Colorado....  ;D

Less than an hour.  There's one south of Trinidad proper that I'm sure gets a lot of business from NE NM, and there's a spot with 4 or 5 of them as you get off the interstate in Trinidad.  I purchased some CBD oil when my mother was out here to see if we can gain on her pain and mobility issues.  Like most things I try to do to help, she's too sporadic about acting on it for it to have any real benefit.  :-[

Interesting places and they are a bit like a fortress.  You have to present a valid ID and wait in a walled off waiting room for a bud tender to take you into the secure area.  It made me think of what a speakeasy might have been like.

It's been a year. We are all still here. Still, let's take a look back to the night of election 2016 and the wonderful melting down of the left (Language warning)

The young turks was the greatest. I still listen to this gloriousness at the gym.

If you can listen to that while working out without wanting to kill yourself, you are a better man than I am.

You don't enjoy the emotional rollercoaster those clowns on the Young Turks went through? All that confidence and gloating. All their criticism of other people because of what they believe only to see them do the exact same thing when Hillary got spanked? The five stages of grief in 26 minutes--love it. And this will always be worth showing again and again.

Watching or listening to libtards gets tiresome to me after about two minutes.  That's my threshold.

Still reveling in the pedophilia, criminal activities, and vileness against handicapped people, we see...
