I'm sure she knew the date she made this announcement.
Personally, I don’t believe in bros before hoes, or hoes before bros. There needs to be a balance. A homie-hoe-stasis, if you will.
Cannabinoids are detectable typically for at least 2 weeks after 1 exposure. Sometimes much longer for sustained heavy users.
When I was doing forensic chemistry a young man called and said he had tested positive 6 weeks after the last time he had smoked. He admitted that he had smoked heavily for a long time but had stopped and was trying to get his life together. He had been offered a really good job but failed the drug test. I felt sorry for him because he seemed to be sincere about changing his life but there was little I could recommend that he didn't know already. He was just a voice on the phone so I don't know what his body habitus was; cannabinoids are fat soluble so its possible that he was obese.
It is ironic that the least harmful drug is the one you are most likely to be punished for.
Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, considered the leading living Orthodox rabbi, has ruled that marijuana is kosher for Passover, according to the Times of Israel.
For the eight-day celebration, Jewish people avoid leavened bread and any food made with wheat, barley, rye, spelt or oats.
Foods called “kitniot” — which includes rice, millet, corn and legumes — are also forbidden in most households.
Marijuana for medical purposes, however, is now permitted.
Kanievsky was asked for a ruling by the pro-marijuana group Siach, according to the newspaper.
After sniffing the leaves, Kanievksy and Rabbi Yitzchak Zilberstein said that the plant has a “healing smell,” according to the Times of Israel, and blessed the leaves.
Passover begins at sundown on April 22.
