It’s 2016, yet the DEA still refers to cannabis as ‘marihuana.’ Why is that?

#News420
I don’t know…maybe for the same stupid reason they keep it listed Schedule 1 so it can’t be studied, because it hasn’t been studied enough?
Of course, calling it “Marijuana” regardless of spelling is a racial slur equating it with minority involvement in the illegal use and trafficking. It is a slang term, and the correct nomenclature should be “Cannabis”. “Marihuana” isn’t even a word.
Hey…I wonder if the prohibition laws could be overturned because “Marihuana” doesn’t actually exist? Even my spellcheck says it isn’t a word, so any law prohibiting it is literally prohibiting something that doesn’t actually exist.

How to fight a holiday hangover like a pro

Yoga? Yeah sure. Yoga cures everything.
Me…I say: Hydrate. Hydrate. Hydrate. I’ve had plenty of hangovers. They key is AVOIDANCE.
No, I don’t mean avoiding getting drunk…just the hangover. Drink a quart of water, eat a banana and two tylenols before bed…no hangover.
If you’re too drunk to follow the bedtime advice, and you feel like shit the next morning: CHEESE PIZZA and a strong Coffee with a shot of rum in it.

Progressives see a leader in Bernie Sanders as they prepare to fight back

#Bernie2020.
By then, it should be pretty clear that Trump has screwed us royally, and we’ll be ready to accept that Capitalism without a conscience is NOT what America should stand for. We are the ONLY country that refuses to take care of our sick, poor and elderly and tells them “pull yourselves up by your bootstraps”. Socialism is NOT communism…it is Capitalism with equity and economic justice for ALL…not just the rich.
And frankly, Socialism is not a fringe idea…it’s more like the World standard, subscribed to by the governments of nearly every developed country on the Planet.

America’s underpaid-teacher problem, in one chart

We pay teachers about 60% of what they would make in other occupations given the same amount of education. It’s no accident that the SMARTEST teachers, choose to do something else. Why would you possibly choose to earn 40% less money? You’d have to really love kids, (and there are some amazing teachers who do it only for that love of education), or not actually be qualified for those other jobs, to choose to go into teaching in the USA.
You know, if we don’t invest nationally in education, we’ll just keep ending up with more national stupidity.
