The interest in the delta-9 products will probably continue. As a general rule—for everyone’s health and safety—before we even dip our toes into this ‘legal’ THC variant, as some say, it’s vital that we do our research on it first. We, as consumers, should be able to identify what’s in it, what is it, and how it could affect our bodies. And how is the delta-8 different from the notorious delta-9 in every…

Marijuana Legalization: Which States Is Weed Legal In? – CNET

Couch Lock? Cannabis Users More Motivated Than Non-Users, Study Finds

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Scientific research continues to reach conclusions that fly in the face of long-believed myths about cannabis use, such as marijuana makes you stupid or never want to exercise.

THC Restriction Bill On Virginia Governor’s Desk Would Harm Hemp Industry, Advocates Say – Marijuana Moment

A Connecticut legislative committee on Friday approved a bill that would set the state up to provide certain patients with access to psychedelic-assisted treatment with substances like MDMA and psilocybin.

Ex-Norwalk cops decertified after probe found they ‘betrayed the public trust,’ documents show – Torrington Register Citizen

NORWALK — A state agency revoked the law enforcement certifications of two former city cops after an internal investigation by the Norwalk Police Department found they “betrayed the public trust” by consuming alcohol on the job, documents show.

Norwalk police arrested DiMeglio and Laudano in January 2021, about three…
