Celebrities Are Pushing Biden to Issue Mass Marijuana Pardons

Given that laws regarding marijuana use are slowly being changed all over the country, many people are calling for changes to the criminal justice system as well. In particular, many people’s attitudes regarding those who are in jail or prison for marijuana-related charges are becoming more understanding and lenient. The entertainment realm is no exception. There are quite a few celebrities who believe that it is unfair to keep these people behind bars, despite the fact that the drug is slowly being legalized, grown, sold, and regulated by the government. With that in mind, let’s take a look at how the celebrity world is reacting to this issue.

Approximately 150 Celebrities Have Spoken

Although Killer Mike has become a well-known political activist over the years, other celebrities such as Drake, Deion Sanders, Kevin Garnett, and many others have mostly remained silent on such matters. However, the notion that many minorities and others are in prison for a drug that is already legal in several states seems to be the tipping point for a large group of celebrities and public figures. In fact, a group of over 150 stars, law enforcement professionals, athletes, and scholars all signed a letter that was recently delivered to president Joe Biden.

The Gist of the Letter

In a nutshell, the letter called for a “full, complete, and unconditional pardon” for all non-violent offenders who have federal marijuana convictions. In other words, public figures from all walks of life have decided that it is unfair to force these people to serve their entire sentences, despite the fact that marijuana is on the verge of being legalized and many people in corporate America, as well as the government, have already started cashing in on this lucrative opportunity.

Pointing out that the “war on drugs” seems to have done more harm to minority communities, especially, these celebrities have come together for one common cause. The letter was not only an attempt to urge President Joe Biden and his administration to reconsider marijuana laws and release non-violent marijuana offenders, but it was also written to remind Biden of the fact that he used marijuana decriminalization as a central talking point during his campaign; a promise he is expected to make good on, sooner than later.

What’s the Hold-Up?

As Sen. Bernie Sanders pointed out, President Biden has the power to end federal marijuana prohibition. Given that he essentially promised to do so during his campaign, many people are wondering what’s taking so long. No matter what Biden’s reasoning is, it seems that this is becoming an issue that he can no longer afford to ignore.

The Cannabis User’s Guide to Head Highs and Body Highs


Medical science has come a long way in recognizing the many practical benefits of cannabis to treat a variety of health and wellness challenges, from chronic pain conditions to digestive troubles. But long before the doctors joined the cannabis bandwagon, individuals embraced the herb and its derivatives simply to get high. But what exactly does that mean? Would you prefer a head high or a body high, and what’s the difference anyway? Let’s explore these questions.

What Is a Head High?

Cannabis users describe a head high as one that affects your mental and emotional state more than your physical sensations or abilities. This kind of high may give you feelings of enhanced happiness, creativity, and energy that enhance your productivity, relationships, and motivation.

Head highs are commonly associated with sativa strains of the cannabis plant, although the other main category of plant, indica, can also produce or contribute to a head high. The presence of aromatic compounds called terpenes can also influence your head high. Limonene and caryophyllene are examples of terpenes that can give your mind and spirits a welcome rush of focus, energy, and poise.

What Is a Body High?

While a head high can get you going, a body high may stop you in your tracks — which might be perfect when you just want to chill out. Deep physical and mental relaxation is the name of the game here. Many cannabis veterans use the term “couch lock” to describe the feeling of just sitting immobile, with tingling extremities and a calm, untroubled mind. A serious case of the munchies can accompany a typical body high, so if you’re on a diet, you’ve been warned.

Indica strains have traditionally been known to produce a potent body high, although some sativa strains may induce lesser body-high effects as well. The main factor in this case is the presence of CBD alongside the THC in the indica. If you want to enhance your body high, look for (or add) terpenes such as myrcene, linalool, and pinene. Myrcene in particular is known as the “couch lock terpene.”

What Cannabis Gear Do I Need?

What Cannabis Gear Do I Need?

If you’re living somewhere in the country where cannabis is legal, then you’re living through a cannabis sales boom. There’s been an uptick of adults getting into cannabis and that leaves us with one big question. What kinds of gear do you need to enjoy recreational cannabis?

Let’s start with different types of cannabis products.

Cannabis Consumption 101

Cannabis is more available than ever thanks to legalization and decriminalization. There are even companies offering cannabis delivery in some cities. Here’s the most common types of cannabis products.

Nothing but Time for Edibles

Edibles are snacks and other food products that have been infused with THC. The effects of cannabis take longer to manifest with edibles than they do with smokable cannabis. However, edibles represent a healthier alternative to smoking and an easier way to control your dosage.

Rolling Papers, Bowls, and Other Smoking Accessories

You can buy pre-rolled joints from your local cannabis shop. These save you the hassle of having to roll-your-own and can be a great choice for beginners.

Using Topicals

Topical cannabis products include balms and lotions. These are applied to areas of the body for various therapeutic effects. There is research that shows topicals can help with certain skin conditions as well as joint and muscle pain.

Cannabis Oil

Cannabis oil, or tinctures, is an oil that has been infused with THC, CBD, and terpenes. Terpenes are the flavoring compounds that give cannabis its distinct taste and smell. Cannabis oil is typically applied beneath the tongue. Cannabis oil can also be incorporated into food products to make your own edibles.

Smoking Concentrates

There are a lot of different concentrates out there. They’re all commonly referred to as dab. Each of these concentrates has different qualities. Here’s a list of a few of the most common.

  • Shatter

  • Live Resin

  • Rosin

  • Crumble

  • Sauce

  • Budder

  • Distillate

  • Hash

  • And more

You’ll need a smoking device known as a dab rig to consume smokable concentrates. This is a glass pipe that is very similar to a water bong and its construction. The main difference is that instead of adding your cannabis flower to the Bowl, you add the Cannabis concentrates to an area on the dab rig known as the nail.

Concentrates offer a stronger flavor as well as a harder hitting high. They can be a little bit more challenging to smoke for the beginner cannabis enthusiast.

Vape Pens

Vaping has become one of the most popular alternatives for smoking tobacco and one of the most popular choices for cannabis. Vaping is more discreet than smoking cannabis flower. This can be an excellent choice for people who want to minimize that very noticeable weed smell.

A Few Last Things to Consider For Cannabis Gear

You should consider your budget, local rules and regulations for consuming cannabis, and the types of experiences you’re looking to enjoy when you go to buy your cannabis gear.

Your Guide to Cannabis Tinctures

Your Guide to Cannabis Tinctures


When you think of medical cannabis, you might naturally envision vaped or smoked marijuana products. However, the wide world of cannabis includes both marijuana and other valuable options such as CBD, as well as delivery methods that don’t involve the lungs. Liquid preparations called tinctures may serve your purposes and preferences better than smoking, so let’s examine some key points about them.

Cannabis Tincture Bases: Alcohol Versus Oils

A tincture is a medicinal liquid that you place under your tongue, where it gets absorbed quickly by the body without having to be digested first. In a typical cannabis tincture, the cannabis is dissolved in a base or either ethyl alcohol or oil.

These types of bases have their respective pros and cons. A strong concentration of ethyl alcohol (such as Everclear) works quickly and keeps well, but you may not like the taste or want to ingest alcohol. Oil options include glycerine, olive oil, and MCT (medium chain triglycerides). As a compromise, you can burn the alcohol off your preparation and then combine what remains with glycerine. If you’d rather just buy a ready-made tincture, both alcohol and MCT oil feature in many manufactured products.

Tincture Dosage Tips

Cannabis tinctures can work as an ingestible substance just like other edible cannabis products; you can simply swallow them and wait for them to take effect. However, they work much more quickly than edibles if you take them as intended, by placing a few drops under your tongue and holding them there for a moment. This allows the cannabis to enter your bloodstream directly through the small, plentiful blood vessels in your mouth. you can then swallow and digest the dosage to enjoy the full long-term effects of the preparation.

The size of the dose you should place under your tongue can depend on a variety of factors, from your body weight and size to any previous tolerance you may have developed. If you make your own tincture, you can depend on a ratio of 3 fluid ounces of tincture per 8 ounces of flower or weed to provide a mild result suitable for many beginners. If you buy a manufactured tincture, follow the dosage advice on the label and then adjust that dosage to suit your needs.
