"if you've ever smoked a sativa that knocked you out, or an indica that made you chatty and wired — nothing is wrong with you. the label was never the truth."

"a good high feels pleasant. the right high feels intentional — even if you didn't try very hard."

“a 33% strain can make you feel nothing. a 17% strain can knock you sideways. a cbd-heavy hybrid can hit the exact spot you didn't even know you were trying to reach.

so here's where we stand: thc is not the story. it's one character in a much bigger cast.”

“maybe it's the fact that this small series of motions always means the same thing: you're allowed to slow down now.”

“there are so many places for loud cannabis culture. the dab bros, the ounce blunts, the influencers doing sponsored posts for brands they've probably never actually tried. but almost nothing for the other kind of cannabis user. the intentional one.”

“i used to smoke and forget everything. like, everything everything. was this the strain that made my chest tight? did i actually like that preroll or was it just a waste of money? there was no record. no ritual. no sense of what worked or why. so i made a journal.”
