The New York Times is pushing a fear campaign on “cannabis poisonings” in kids, built on sloppy hospital coding, bad data, and lazy journalism. We break down the inflated numbers, call out the stupid motherf*ckers leaving edibles out, and show how real regulation not media panic protects children while exposing the NYT’s scare tactics
California’s cannabis industry is on fire, both literally and politically. Toxic pesticide smoke blankets Siskiyou County while federal ICE raids leave a farmworker dead in what is supposed to be a legal market. With soaring cannabis taxes and suffocating regulations driving growers to the black market, Sacramento faces a breaking point. Can legalization survive, or is this the end of California’s cannabis dream?
A new Telegraph article claims cannabis gummies could damage your heart, but the science doesn’t back the hysteria. We take their claims apart and show how fear-mongering headlines continue to distort cannabis facts. At a time when real education is needed, sensationalist reporting is the real threat.
A major new study claims daily cannabis use dramatically raises the risk of heart attack and stroke. But dig into the data and you’ll find no dosage, no strain, no timing—just a yes-or-no checkbox matched against hospital records. This isn’t science, it’s stigma wrapped in statistical theater. Pot Culture Magazine breaks it down.
PGR weed might look dense and powerful, but beneath the surface lurks a chemical nightmare. These synthetic growth regulators strip cannabis of its natural potency, terpenes, and flavor leaving you with a harsh, artificial high that’s bad for your lungs and worse for your health. If your bud smells weak, burns black, or feels like a rock, you might be smoking lab-grown trash. Know the signs, demand better, and never settle for chemical-laced garbage.

However, research and policy developments lag behind, posing risks to public health. While equity initiatives exist, a comprehensive approach is needed to ensure safety and accountability in the cannabis industry, prioritizing informed consumer protection.
