IT’S NICE WHEN EVEN THE SHITTIEST PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE WEAR MASKS

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted August 25, 2020 Filed Under: Dear Reader

Starting to sound nuts? Sort of like the adults barking dangerous contrarian magniloquence that’s rooted in owning the libs?

KNOW THE REGS: OPERATING VEHICLES WHILE STONED

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted May 8, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Talking Joints Memo

PATIENTS VS. PROFITS: MEDICAL CANNABIS CONSUMERS CONCERNED ABOUT RECREATIONAL ROLLOUT

Written by MICHELLE NOVACK HERMAN Posted February 1, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Editorial, Talking Joints Memo

We aren’t talking about the Gap running out of size 4 skinny jeans for a week. We are talking about medicine that allows people to function and sometimes even to live.
