By far one of the biggest miscalculations in this election is Danny P’s war on THC One man’s crusade, spurned on by big alcohol, might’ve singlehandedly been one of the largest mistakes we’ve ever seen in election season

Election night cannabis recap: - Massachusetts voters overwhelmingly rejected Question 8, which would have repealed legal recreational marijuana sales, with roughly 75% voting against it. - Idaho voters rejected a constitutional amendment that would have prohibited future citizen-led marijuana legalization initiatives. - Democrats secured control of the House, Senate and governor's office in both Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, opening a clear path to recreational marijuana legalization in 2027 following years of opposition from Republican lawmakers in the state. - Texas voters elected Gina Hinojosa as the state's first governor who openly supports legalizing recreational cannabis, defeating three-term incumbent Greg Abbott. - Iowa voters elected Rob Sand, who will become the state's first governor who backs recreational marijuana legalization. - Several states, including South Carolina and Maine, elected for the first time U.S. senators who support federal marijuana legalization, adding more pro-reform voices to Congress. - Over 70% of Houston voters approved a measure making low-level marijuana possession the city's lowest law enforcement priority.

Huge Shoutout and Thank You @412Tickets Always a pleasure. Thanks again!

I have to say, everyone on this team looks noticeably better since you-know-who left

Writing this in my personal capacity, but I have been flying these types of aircraft for more than 20 years, with over 8,000 hours, and have reasonable familiarity with how the charter world operates. I feel compelled to post after seeing commentary about the Lear 60 crash, from missile strikes to DEI to critiquing this poor woman’s final radio calls. That last part is what I find most troubling. She was the second-in-command (SIC), and while she was empowered to point out mistakes as part of good crew resource management, she was doing her job, communicating with ATC right to the end in a terrifying situation. She likely knew before many of those calls that she was going to die. I have heard final calls from friends, from military pilots with thousands of hours in fighter aircraft, and they are just as heartbreaking because they know the end is approaching. I understand the public interest given the footage and audio. But you do not know the aircraft’s maintenance history, whether there was a structural failure, if any failure was induced by turbulence, overspeed, or overcontrol, or everything happening in that cockpit. I am sure weather will be part of the investigation, but beyond that, it is speculation. The charter industry routinely hires commercial pilots very early in their careers to gain experience alongside an ATP-qualified captain before they move up to the airlines. She would still have the appropriate training, qualifications, and checkouts by an FAA examiner or designee. Let people investigate, learn, and share the facts. Be respectful to those who perished and the families who carry their memories. God bless them and their loved ones.

Real hockey players play hockey for the teams that employ them. Get this baby out of here.

A man came on Tuesday to take soil cores out of Gerald's field for a carbon survey, and he had planned to be an hour, and he was there until dark, because the bull would not stop following him. He had a steel auger, a bag of tubes with lids, a tablet, and a grid of forty points on it that he had to hit in order. He had done the lane field in the morning. The lane field was easy, because the lane field is bare and there is nothing in it, and he came through the gate into Gerald's forty acres at one o'clock with the confidence of a man who has read that beef cattle are docile. They are. That is the problem. A bull who has never been frightened of anything has no reason to leave, and a Hereford has no reason to stand still either when something interesting is going on, and a stranger kneeling in the grass turning a steel rod into the ground is the most interesting thing that has happened in that field since the hot air balloon. Gerald came over from the south corner at the pace he goes everywhere and stood four yards off and watched the first core come up. The man stood up. Gerald did not move. The man walked to point two. Gerald walked to point two. The man knelt. Gerald stood over him, nine hundred kilos of mild interest, and breathed on the back of his neck, and the man said afterwards he had taken that core faster than any core in his career. Forty points. Gerald attended all of them. He did not touch the man, the auger, the bag or the tablet. He stood four yards off, then three, and when the man moved, he moved, and when the man stopped, he stopped, and the robin rode the whole survey between his ears and sang at the man from there, which the man had not been trained for either. The cores were the thing. The lane field's came up pale, a few inches of brown and then yellow clay, the way a field looks when it has been turned over every autumn for forty years and everything that was ever alive in it has been let out into the air. Gerald's came up black. Black to the bottom of the tube, every one, forty of them, and the man held the two side by side at the gate for the farmer and did not say anything, because he did not need to. Then the man said he had never been followed before. The farmer said Gerald does not follow. He supervises. The results are coming in a report in the new year. The farmer does not need the report. He has had the report in his field for four years, lying down in the south corner at noon on it, putting his dinner back into it, and he could have told the man which tube would come up black before the man had got the lid off. The man asked, packing the van, whether the bull was always like that. The farmer said he had never seen him take that much interest in anybody, and that he thought Gerald had wanted to make sure the man got it right.
