The Dems are irrelevant as more and more members jump ship Unless PTP garners a super majority of MP seats, or otherwise could form a coalition, this is largely irrelevant. The powers that be will not allow that to happen. PPRP and UTN, along with BJT will form the next government. I do not believe that any of these three will highlight cannabis normalization as a MAJOR campaign issue, nor should it be. There are at least two dozen other, more important issues. I think their position will be to let the next Parliamentary seesion deal with the Cannabis Control Act, as it should be. The next parliament can debate personal use/medical-only, and any other controls, or put it back on the Narcotics list and fill up the prisons. By that time there will be a full year's history for folks to deal with the pluses and minuses. I thinkw e can all agree that young people should not have easy access to booze, tobacco, gambling, cannabis. Currently cannabis sales are restricted to those twenty-years and above. I think most of these "house is on fire because of cannabis normalization" articles are click-bait. The sources know they get a huge response so they keep manufacturing them. The amount of negative press far outweighs the impact on daily life. Inspiring outrage in your customer set seems to be the only way to maintain numbers and rise above the others in the cesspool.

Glaciers move faster than the NACC. The NACC is a joke, a big one. It is more akin to a a giant rug, under which corruption cases get swept. They are held, sometimes for decades, before being trotted out to bring down some now current "enemy of the state".

The authorities perpetrating this violent assault on an older woman knew what they were doing was reprehensible. The official (police? army? ISOC? SBB191?) deployed an umbrella to hide the assault. I'm reminded of the lad quietly reading 1984 while eating a sandwich, being dragged away by the police. Or the Hunger Games-inspired three-fingered salute. You know a government or institution has no real legitimate claim to power when they are frightened by one single individual, or a simple silent display. They know how weak they are, and they fear their own citizens.

"Seems"? Number of children killed or injured during drag show story hour: 0 Number of children killed or injured by firearms in 2022: 6,023 Please find a better rationalization for all these anti-trans bills. This isn't about safeguarding children, who've evidently been unaffected by trans folks for years Now, all of a sudden it's a major crisis? Seriously.

Fox Boradcasting does own and operate 18 local TV stations, and has another 227 affiliates. So their coporate lies and poison get an extra boost.

This should get the older folks here worked up. I guess I'm surprised that Fox News is still an allowed source here, given their propensity for lying and only telling their viewers what they want to hear. Linked article result: Firefox Can’t Open This Page

Whitewater Benghazi Hilary's emails Hilary's email server Photos of Hunter Biden's genetalia. Investigations into a single, private individual seems like just the sort of overreach the right loves to whine about. But this dog still wants to catch the car. I say go for it. Spend your valuable congressional time investigating Hunter Biden rather than addressing issues important to the American people.

OK, so you do not consume cannabis. So why are you asking... If you do not consume cannabis? There have been quite a few "dangers of cannabis" threads here. How has my response in any way stifled your enquiry? I encourage to raise any/all questions you may have. Me thinks you are a bit defensive.

Forgiving student loans? Ye gads, the Moral Hazard. The lessons it teaches. Bail out banks? Of course.

Looks awesome. Are these photos of the product you received? What are these strains? Which did you purchase? Can you share the source? Thanks.

Do you consume cannabis? Or are you proselytizing? Assume this would be covered in any pre-op consult? I'd be more worried about confirming the proper location for the operation.

Two weeks is better, and this is to flush nutrients, inhibit new green growth/chlorophyl which can result in harshness in the finished product. Nothing to do with pesticides, which indoor growers are not using, nor does their growing medium or water supply contain run-off pesticides. I think if cannabis has mold it will smell like amonia, or fresh-cut grass.

With any supplemental lighting? These look really good.

I just can't see local Thai/Laos growers spending money on chemical fertilizers. I mean they are growing indegenous strains which are suited for the environment, including pest resistance. Some terpenes act as a natural pest resistance. OK, so if it didn't have mold before it surely will after washing. You can do your own research. Done about what? Mold? Nothing. Health issues smoking moldy weed? Avoid those by not smoking moldy weed. Do you also smoke your fruits and vegetables? If you want to wash your weeds go for it. At least it won't have any residual dirt.

The hurdles for proving defamation, especially in when it involves "the press", versus the First Amendment are nearly insurmountable. How many successful defamation cases in the U.S. involving the press have been in favor of the plaintiff? I'm just saying that it's hardly a slam-dunk, forgetting about years and years of appeals, where at each stage there will be pressure from the judge to settle. Of course the conservative majority on SCOTUS would like reverse New York Times v. Sullivan, which is interesting, in an ironic sort of way.

Yes, I think they are. At least until Parliament is dissolved. Zero transparency on the judiciary here. And if you ask questions go directly to jail.

You never know with juries. Where's Billy McBride when you need him? I would think that the terms of any settlement would be the main challenge - admission of guilt/NDA/destruction of discovery records, etc. - than the dollar amount?

"Keep 'em guessing". That's a feature not a bug. The Texas Attorney General has warned CVS and Wal­greens on the Ille­gal­i­ties of Send­ing Abor­tion Pills Through the Mail https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/releases/paxton-warns-cvs-and-walgreens-illegalities-sending-abortion-pills-through-mail No clue why they are pushing so hard on this given how poorly it polls. After fifty some years I guess they just can't quit it.

What types of cannabis are you buying? What type of pesticides do you imagine growers are using? Are you concerned about pesticide uptake from the soil, water supply? How are you consuming your cannabis? The use of pesticides adds to the production costs, and I doubt the bulk outdoor growers are spending money on chemical pesticides. I do not think you can wash off pesticides? Maybe buy from reputable growers/sources? Indoor growers, assuming they're not too lazy, usually do not have issues with pests. I would be much, much, much more concerned about mold.

What a swamp... from Wiki... As an active legislator, Upakit has legal immunity under Thai law until February 28, 2023, when the current legislative session ends. Following the arrests, Kritsanat Thanasupanat, the lead investigator from the Metropolitan Police Bureau, was mysteriously transferred to a remote post in Chaiyaphum province https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upakit_Pachariyangkun Prachatai and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) also found in October 2022 that Upakit was wanted for arrest in connection with an alleged drug trafficking and money laundering ring operating out of a casino in the Golden Triangle, but the warrant was quickly retracted. A Thai news programme, meanwhile, reported that it never existed, while another outlet took down a story about the warrant without explanation. Rangsiman noted in his speech that Upakit also owns a plot of land in Bangkok’s Soi Ari 5 and that the land is now the site of the headquarters for the Ruam Thai Sang Chart Party, a recently established political party that Gen Prayut recently joined. https://prachataienglish.com/node/10242 The Force is strong with this one.

This one will be challenging to clean up. Not sure there's a pastry box (acceptable delivery method for the judiciary, brown envelopes are for commoners) big enough for this one? https://aseannow.com/topic/1289078-police-chief-orders-probe-into-police-officers-who-sought-an-arrest-warrant-for-a-sitting-senator/

Still inetersting that Big Joke pushed this case over to the NACC, instead of to prosecutors. This will die at the NACC. And many (most?) of these "men" worked in Immigration when Big Joke led that "organization". But we'll be told by the fan bois that Big Joke turned Immigration into a pristine landscape free of corruption. Yet just a few years later it turned into a quagmire of corruption. Obviously he did not instill much integrity or honesty. A cover-up in plain sight. The "government" is very brazen, but they know that no one will challenge them.

Privatize profits. Socialize costs.

I don't think there's enough rice porridge in Thailand to entice Hapkarn to get involved in this one. The Senator is Upakit Pachariyangkun. The military dictatorship ruling Myanmar needs the cash from drugs. And the powers that be in Thailand make 30% on transhipments, and more on precursors. One of the three Thais arrested was Upakit’s son-in-law, Dean Young Gultula. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/upakit-pachariyangkun-thai-senator-under-scrutiny-for-myanmar-connections/ I think Mr. Gultula is a U.S. citizen.
