Lt. Guv’s Wife Talks About Her Own Use Of Medical Marijuana

Thank you! Legal weed changed my life and can help so many others too. After suffering with chronic pain my entire life, my MMJ card gave me hope and relief. #legalizeit https://t.co/9D35h78HEQ

Gisele Fetterman talked with KDKA Radio host, Robert Mangino on Monday (August 26)

Mangino noted that Fetterman’s public persona is  very upbeat, but that she is a medical marijuana user because she suffers from chronic pain. Fetterman said that “pain is a very real part of my life… but medical marijuana has helped me manage [the pain] in a way that it has improved my quality of life tremendously.”

Fetterman told Mangino that her children know about about her marijuana use. She said that “they don’t see it as a stigma because I’ve taught them that it isn’t.”

According to Triblive.com, Fetterman “suffered a few childhood accidents which she said left her with chronic back pain since age 7.”

These Garments Have Been Politically Maligned

Most non-Arabs who wear the keffiyeh do not intend it to be Anti-Semitic in any way. They wear it as an expression of sympathy for Palestinian civilians, support for human rights, concern about war, or identification with a broader cause of national identity and self-determination. In their minds, it is directed toward Palestinians, not against […]

What Does My Fountain Pen Have In Common With The Former Lord & Taylor In Bala Cynwyd?

Both come out of the work of Raymond Loewy and his design firm. Raymond Loewy (1893–1986) helped define what modern America looked like in the mid-20th century. Through his design firm, he worked across an unusually wide range of industries—transportation, consumer products, branding, and architecture—often simultaneously. No one in history is more closely associated with […]

January 16-18: The Philly Pen Show — A Delightfully Analog Experience

f you’re looking for a break from screens, alerts, and endless scrolling, the Philly Pen Show might be the cure—at least temporarily. It’s an unapologetically analog event: pens, paper, ink, and the people who still care deeply about them. Whether you’re a serious collector, someone who misses the feel of writing by hand, or just […]
