In what might be the most ill-conceived cannabis publicity stunt of the year, a 23-year-old Texas man has found himself the subject of a police manhunt after hiding plastic Easter eggs filled with marijuana throughout the city of Lufkin. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: The Weedster Bunny.

According to the findings, the individuals who historically consumed cannabis occasionally had the best results. They also added that frequent marijuana consumption was not linked to a decrease in cognitive performance during the trial.

The alcohol industry is facing declining sales due to a "shifting landscape" that includes "moderation trends," "health and wellness considerations," and explicitly, cannabis. This isn't just market competition—it's existential panic. When the Wholesale Beer Distributors of Texas are actively supporting anti-cannabis legislation while simultaneously acknowledging cannabis as a sales threat, we're witnessing an industry fighting for its life.

Let’s bust ten of the most persistent cannabis myths that are rooted in stigma and not science. We shall also see what the real data and decades of plant wisdom actually say.

There is data and research to back up the fact that alcohol is much more of a hazard on the road, than weed is. Several reasons contribute to it. For one, alcohol is responsible for around 25% of all fatalities caused by motor vehicle accidents. Data also shows that drivers with elevated blood alcohol concentrations (BAC) have a major increased risk when it comes to crashes. Just a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or more already leads to significant impairment when it comes to reaction time, coordination, and judgment, thus resulting in more accidents on the road.

The researchers found that 70% of the respondents acknowledged that psychedelic experiences impacted their sexuality, and around 65% of them said that there were short-term effects, while 53% reported long-term effects.

Some even acknowledged that they went through gender fluidity experiences, and going through waves that took them from feminine to masculine energies.

But that protection apparently evaporated after DOGE's sweeping budget cuts hit the DEA, reportedly resulting in the dismissal of agents responsible for safeguarding sensitive information—including the identities of confidential informants in Mexico.

In a significant legal decision that could impact millions of Americans, a federal judge recently ruled that insurance companies are not obligated to cover the cost of medical marijuana, even when prescribed by a licensed physician. This ruling exposes the complicated, often contradictory relationship between state-level legalization of cannabis and federal law, and it leaves many patients in a precarious situation: forced to either absorb the often high cost of their treatment or go without it altogether.

The current administration can make or break the way for cannabis rescheduling. When Biden’s administration proposed making cannabis a Schedule III drug, it was a pivotal yet incomplete move – more needed to be done in order to legalize cannabis in the eyes of the federal law and get it on the same page as state-level legalization.
