Big Canna

Oct 29, 2023

Sawadee Everyone,

Greetings from your favorite chronic-ler of all things green and groovy! It’s been a somewhat sedate week in the cannabis cosmos, and since the news wheel is turning at the speed of a stoned snail, let’s dive into a juicy jungle of thought, shall we?

So, I had a chinwag with a fellow herb enthusiast recently, a real Dr. Greenthumb if you will. This gentleman finds harmony in serenading his plants with good vibes and Beethoven’s Fifth, swearing by the miracle of music for majestic marijuana. He's the type to give each bud a pep talk!

Now, this sage of sativa is less than thrilled about the looming shadows of “Big Cannabis”. He envisions a future where the art of cultivation is lost to the monolithic munchies of capitalism.

However, yours truly is sporting a different set of glasses – rose-tinted, perhaps, with a hint of pragmatism. I believe in a utopian union where the commerce of cannabis and the spirituality of the sacred herb dance in delightful synchrony.

But, oh, the boundaries, my friends! It’s like trying to find your lighter in a smoke-filled room – where do we draw the line? Cookies, the behemoth of bud, is often paraded as the poster child of “Big Cannabis”. But let’s pause and ponder – how many green thumbs does Cookies feed? How many alumni of this cannabis college will bloom into titans of THC?

And it’s not just about the jobs, jobs, jobs. It’s about the demand, the dynamism, and the dollars. Without the promotional prowess of players like Cookies, we might find ourselves in a world where less folks are lighting up – a sobering thought, indeed.

As the old adage goes, “a rising tide lifts all boats” – and who wouldn’t want to sail in a sea of success? Now, I’m not waving the pom-poms for Big Green, but credit where credit’s due, this symbiotic soiree is more intricate than meets the high eye.

Life, my dear buds, is not always black and white; sometimes it’s more of a purple haze. The world is complex, cannabis even more so.

Looking ahead, the Land of Smiles is on the brink of a Big Green Boom. It’s coming faster than a case of the munchies after a bong hit. And what comes with it? Jobs by the jointful, innovation in abundance, and success stories sprouting like… well, weeds.

So, here’s to the big, the small, and everything in between. May our cannabis future be as bright as a well-tended sativa in bloom.

Stay lifted and enlightened,
