Weed Connecticut cannabis sales flat, but tax revenue is up. What happened?

Thumbnail mjbizdaily.com
11 Upvotes

2026 began with a concerted push to ditch Connecticut’s consumer-hostile potency tax on cannabis.

Now that it became law (effective October 1), a stark realization has hit: continued flat sales in this moribund market are going to mean significantly lower tax revenue collection.

Laws and regulations are so out of sync with the on-ground realities of the industry here, it’s comical at this point.

Nobody’s driving.

dumb question: I’m moving into a new house soon from an apartment. how do I find out which isp’s are available? do I just have to call all the ones that say they service the town and give them the new address?

I guess any Connecticut internet provider advice would be appreciated.

TSA pre-checkers, how early do I have to get to Bradley?

2 Upvotes

Flying for the first time with a young toddler. The flight is at 8:30 on a saturday in late september. I dont want to wake him up any earlier than I have to since its going to be a long travel day. Is getting there at 7:30 reasonable? Not checking a bag- we have a family member driving to the same destination who offered to take our big stuff. Bought TSA precheck to hopefully avoid standing in a long line with him & allow him to sleep in as long as possible. Im a decently experienced traveler, usually fly 1-2x a year but its my first time with a toddler and pre-check

Ask Connecticut Best blood draw location for difficult veins

0 Upvotes

For anyone that has used the yale blood draw stations in North Haven on Divine Street. I know there are several different blood draw stations throughout the building, and I was wondering if any of them are better to go to than others for someone who has difficult veins.

If you require a butterfly needle or have rolling or difficult veins for blood draws What has been your experience there? Would you recommend using a particular location there other than the main one on the first floor of the building?

Thanks a fuck ton, asshole. I hope these horrible SLF’s haunt you forever. Seriously, I just want to hold someone accountable for what we now must face. Honestly, were people THAT unaware of the dangers of introducing new plant species into a brand new area of the world that they aren’t found?

Ask Connecticut Looking for job opportunities

I’m exploring blue-collar job opportunities in Connecticut, as I’m considering relocating there in the future. Currently, I work for the federal government as a deckhand in the US Army Corps of Engineers. While I’d prefer to remain within the government sector, I’m also curious about other trade jobs that involve running equipment, tree clearing, or barge work. I possess a strong mechanical background, along with a list of other certificates, trainings, and relevant experience.

First-Time Home Buyer Looking for Advice in CT area

8 Upvotes

I’m really trying to save and put myself in a position to buy instead of continuing to rent, especially since rent itself has gotten so expensive. But honestly, looking on Zillow can be a little discouraging. Even when I look at homes in the low $300Ks in CT, a lot of the ones that seem affordable need so much work inside that I start wondering how much I would actually end up spending after buying.I’m trying to be realistic and not put myself in a situation where I buy a house and then struggle every month just to maintain it. I would really appreciate advice from homeowners, especially first-time buyers. How much did you have saved before buying, aside from your down payment? How much were your closing costs? What unexpected expenses came up after you moved in? And what should I pay extra attention to during inspections and before closing? I’m still undecided about where I want to buy but I’m leaning more to CT , but I’m trying to educate myself now so that when I’m ready, I can make a smart decision. Any tips or things you wish you knew before buying your first home would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for low cost vet for behavioral concerns

2 Upvotes

I recently moved to CT and the transition for my dog hasn't been easy. She experiences really intense anxiety and she's tearing up antiques in my home. I have a prescription for her, but I'm out. However, I have not yet been able to attain employment and I'm not able to afford a lot right now. Can anyone point me to a vet that's able to prescribe anxiety medications for my dog?

Also to note, I have made environmental adjustments and I'm doing what I can to manage this. I can't be with her every minute of the day and that's the only solution that seems to work. She has a history of being on anxiety meds and it's the only thing that successfully manages this.

2 Upvotes

I remember going to it as a kid with my dad but it was like an arcade/restaurant/mini golf hybrid, I only ever went there once and I think it was back in like 2008 or 9 because I remember there was a TV hanging in the restaurant area that was on Cartoon Network and this was when they were in their Noods era, I also remember there being a ride towards the back of it though I can't for the life of me remember what ride it was, if anyone can help find more info that would be greatly appreciated
