Gift Guide for an Activist Stoner

I don’t have a silly parody today for you. But I do have a few gift ideas for your stoner friends who are vocal about injustice and inequality.

The Problem with Plants Over Pills

I have a bone to pick with the cannabis industry, especially the influencers and educators.

Yet, every single day that I log in to my various social networks, I see at least one person touting the “plants over pills” rhetoric. I’m going to be blunt about this
