Bloody clever apes, hope they checked the plants they were using weren't illegal 😀 hightimes.com/news/orangutan-observed-using-medicinal-herb-to-heal-wound/'Wild animals have been seen eating cannabis, but it’s unclear why they are attracted to it. In the wild, mice and rats eat germinated hemp seeds, while moles, rabbits, foxes, deer, and dogs have been seen eating hemp leaves and stalks. And this doesn’t include insect pests that regularly chow down on cannabis leaves.' Wonder why 🤔

A reasonable guess but cannabis leaves don't contain large amounts of the trichomes that contain cannibinoids. Most cannabinoids are concentrated in the flowers of the plant which they seem to leave well alone, to produce edibles that are psychoactive for human consumption the flowers need to be 'decarboxylated' anyway, probably the same for all mammals. It's more likely imo that they found some health benefit, same with hemp seeds, birds and fish just love them, they're probably one of the most nutritionally valuable foods there is from what I've read. Deer (and I think foxes) and the amanita muscara mushroom 🍄 is a different matter entirely, they definitely eat them with the intention of getting thoroughly twatted 😀

Event in Bristol for anyone interested, pay what you want if you want, ex (sacked!) Government drugs advisor David Nutt will be there, he's well worth listening to, strange that it's in a beer factory but it's an alcohol free event. Ex undercover cop Niel Woods there also, always entertaining - www.headfirstbristol.co.uk/whats-on/bristol-beer-factory/thu-16-may-take-drugs-seriously-with-david-nutt-107733#e107733"Famously dismissed from government advisory for claiming horse riding was more harmful than ecstasy, Dr. Nutt is THE local champion of evidence-first policy and psychedelic research. He’s joined by ex-undercover cop Neil Woods and the Bristol Cable for a game-changing take on the UK’s endless ‘war on drugs’."

Making a point of banning a legal drug, alcohol, from an event promoting legalisation of a currently illegal drug seems a bit of an odd thing to do. Unless I'm missing an underlying message. And I fully agree with their approach to the war on drugs as in its failed and its time to look at a new way forward.

Yes, puzzled me a bit, I've never seen beer at any of these events tbf but once or twice there's been wine and nibbles, they usually have free cocktails from a company called Sentia, probably will again - sentiaspirits.com/

Thailand to revert to medical use only, I'm guessing things will carry on as they were and local police will enforce a 'tax' like they do with gambling 🙂 Still very disappointing. hightimes.com/news/thailand-prime-minister-aims-to-re-list-cannabis-as-narcotic-by-end-of-2024/A quote from the opposite viewpoint - "Prasitchai Nunual, secretary-general of Thailand’s Cannabis Future Network, argued that moving to recriminalize would hurt the economy, small businesses, and consumers. “Many people have been growing cannabis and opening cannabis shops. These will have to close down,” he told Reuters. “If scientific results show that cannabis is worse than alcohol and cigarettes then they can re-list it as a narcotic. If cannabis is less harmful, they should list cigarettes and alcohol as narcotics too.” Well that would exhibit far more common sense tbf 😄

Marijuana prohibition the greatest scientific fraud of the last century? I'd say in terms of damage to the planet, lives ended prematurely unnecessarily, years of life lost to unjust incarceration and lives impacted by illness and disease needlessly, that it's by far the greatest scientific fraud ever. cannabis.net/blog/opinion/why-marijuana-prohibition-is-the-greatest-scientific-fraud-of-the-last-century'When it comes to cannabis researches, let’s allow the facts to tell the story. 85% of all the researches on “drugs” is funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). This should give an indication as to where these researches will be directed towards. You can be sure that the major focus of the NIDA is towards marijuana prohibition when it comes to research on cannabis. Analysis has shown that between 2000 and 2018, $1.56 billion has been directed by the US, UK, and Canada into cannabis research. Over 50% of this funding has been directed towards the negative effects of cannabis. The NIDA is the largest funder with over $1 billion but this has been majorly directed towards exploiting misuse and the negative effects. On the account of these researches, bodies like the NIDA can continue to promote cannabis as a harmful drug as opposed to the beneficial drug that we know it is.'

Absolutely beyond nonsensical that our own veterans have no access to these therapies but are instead pumped full of pharmaceuticals that many PTSD sufferers claim make their symptoms worse, scandalous 😡

Could save the NHS a fortune - hightimes.com/study/new-study-analyzes-the-effects-of-thcv-cbd-on-weight-loss/'Ultimately, participants who were given both the lower and higher doses of THCV/CBD showed the most improvement. “The 16 mg/20 mg daily dose was superior for weight loss compared to the 8 mg/10 mg daily dose; both sets of results differed from placebo in a way that was statistically significant. The results of this study were congruent with the prior unpublished studies of a hemp extract containing significant percentages of THCV, CBDV, and CBD,” researchers concluded.'

I've only searched headlines on Google but I can't seem to see any Daily Mail reports on this historic announcement 🤔 Maybe even they are beginning to glimpse a naked emperor 😳 Anyhow, it's obviously causing quite a stir in the real world. www.marijuanamoment.net/lawmakers-advocates-and-stakeholders-react-to-bidens-marijuana-rescheduling-announcement/?'But the action is being largely praised as a historic step in the right direction, with the federal government recognizing for the first time in over 50 years that cannabis has accepted medical value and a lower abuse potential than other drugs in Schedule I such as heroin.'
