In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king
Looks like they want the person to do videos.....the job description (See below) fits the majority of the FC folks. Who knew we were all training for one of those new 2021 industry jobs? Proof cannabis is creating jobs and contributing to our economy. Most of FC has been doing this job for free for years, including buying their own herb.
I wonder how many applicants provided a resume where the first paragraph says, "Pick me! I'll do it for the monthly allowance and the free vapes". I know of at least one.
"I need someone who is confident to take over reviews, someone who knows the difference between a Volcano and an Xmax Starry. Who understands what each customer is looking for. So if you are someone who is passionate about vaporizers and has the ability to create well produced, helpful videos and write-ups on the vaporizers. I want to hear from you. I think it’s an amazing opportunity for somebody, and I look forward to us working together."

The cannabis industry's next war: How strong should its weed be?
Some of the 18 states that have embraced legal weed are debating whether to cap THC potency. So far, most of those efforts have failed.

Ridiculous.....if the legislator's are so smart how come they don't realize that if you cap it people will just use more. Maybe that's the idea in some cases as cannabis investment goes mainstream....do we need to follow the money?The Cannabis Industry's Next War: How Strong Should Its Weed Be

Every primary care doctor who has ever prescribed me something in pill form has prescribed a strength that allowed me to cut the pill into more than one dose when possible TO SAVE ME MONEY. Cannabis should be approached similarly.

Exactly right. And agree, its a health issue. I'm in my mid 70s and was a long time smoker of both weed and cigarettes, resulting in weakened lungs. If I can get my good head in one or two tokes rather than five or six, its much easier on ye auld bronchial apparatus and alvioli. So I look for the stronger--more THC--flower and concentrates. At the high end its sometimes a bit more expensive but no loss of flavor. Around here(adult Maine and Mass) that's been around 20%. Before the border closing, on my way to my place in Newfoundland, the last two or three years I'd been stopping at CannaNB stores which had stuff up to 28%, which was one toke stone for me.

Titration.
It's why even an experienced user can get trashed on edibles. If you're used to getting where you want to be a puff at a time, you can titrate your dose and get in the right zone. With edibles, you can't really tell until an hour or two after and by then you're already on the ride and can't get off.
Neat idea, Canna Bumps: Thanks for keeping marijuana illegal
A new cannabis product made waves this past week, and not in a good way. Canna Bumps, a “snortable” powdered cannabis concentrate packaged to look like cocaine, caught the eye of a few industry leaders.They tweeted their reactions—pretty much a chorus of So gross!—and by the weekend, Weed Twitter was piling on.
Watch out for my upcoming article (long in the making) titled :
The Cannabis Industry is FULL OF BS....
The industry is all the proof you need that using cannabis does not make you smarter.....and for many there seems to be the opposite effect...

I dont get the hate I think thats hilarious

I don't hate it, I think it is stupid and bad for the industry. Cannabis and cocaine are nothing like one another and why would someone want to associate them? It is a really dumb idea that can only hurt our efforts to mainstream cannabis. OK, maybe I DO hate it.
Just to be clear by the "hate" I was referring to the responses the article was reporting about
Meh. Idk, all kinds of novelty things exist. Yeah I mean definitely poor taste if you're out for lunch and you start railing lines off the table with a family of 5 next to you... but as a funny gag thing among friends, I could see getting a few laughs out of it. Part of the humor to me is the irony of cannabis and cocaine being two entirely different substances.
All kinds of stupid shit is created around booze. As weed gets more and more "accepted" we're gonna start seeing a bunch of ridiculous products that somebody thought up with the hopes of making a few bucks.

Both are inanimate organic based substances that humans enjoy consuming.
Both also get assigned characteristics which are impossible given what they are.......good,bad.

Fucking Combustion (mostly) Since February 2017
I would be interested in trying the powdered cannabis. I used to like doing lines. So, if this really works, then it might be fun. Why not? I don't give a shit what the anti-drug shit-head asshole opposition thinks. Fuck em. They are all piece of shit assholes anyway.
I used to be one of those piece-of-shit assholes anyway. So, I would know. I had stupid religious reasons for my shitty views back then, just like all the other stupid reasons people may have for being that kind of asshole.

Agreed!
Still....we do need to recognize that one of the cannabis concepts we've been fighting for decades is that its a gateway drug. The optics on snorting a white substance is going to trigger those who have issues with coke, heroin and fentanyl. The majority of those triggered are, as you mentioned, stupid AND many are voters and politicians.
Feds Announce New Standard THC Dose To Be Used In Marijuana Research, Effective Immediately

That standard unit is five milligrams of THC.

I think the candy companies have a point here. It's one thing to call a strain "skittles" or something as no one will get confused with a bag of tangy treats. Having a bag of tangy treats be "medicated" seems like you're taking some of the value for yourself and creating some harm for the underlying brand.

They have a peptide for that.
It seems like using medical cannabis has side effects--like memory issues. They're experimenting on anti-weed:
Peptide could allow medical marijuana to relieve pain without side effects
