November 2020 Welcome

Remember, remember, the 3rd of November! It’s decision time, folks—and whether you’re aligning red or blue, this is going to be a hot one. For the undecideds out there, we get it. It’s tough to decide between a handsy, senile old man who mutters random nonsense and a (pause) handsy senile old man who mutters random nonsense. But that’s as far as we’ll go in addressing the choice, lest we stumble left or right of center and get torn to bits by partisan trolls. We’re just thankful that voting is still a thing we can do in this country and pray it remains as such in the future. 

 

Speaking of the future, have you signed up for the HQ Event and Trade Show yet?  If not, what are you waiting for? Having doubts? Just remember, it’s being put on by the amazing Smoke Shop Events and yours truly, the most trusted and longest-running publication in the space.  If you think we’d put our names on a dud, you need to get better at thinking. Anyway, happy November, happy Turkey day, and Happy Black Friday, fellow Heads on the Quest! We’ll see you in December.

As a result of that work, she was diagnosed with PTSD, survivor’s guilt, and insomnia. “The doctor wanted to give me a lot of prescriptions, but I already felt numb,” she says. “I needed something to bring me back to myself. So I chose a different path: the cannabis route.”
Before you pop the champagne (or, in my case, spark the bowl) on New Year’s Eve, don’t forget to tie up any remaining loose ends with your business. Unfinished tasks could cost you thousands if left dangling for too long, so start the New Year off right by taking care of any unresolved issues before January 1st.
There’s no holiday more prone to mythmaking than Christmas. Across our TVs, stories enshrine ridiculous origins to modern traditions, cartoon characters regularly save the holiday from the forces of grinchdom, and modern love flourishes for career women stuck in small towns. But these yuletide concoctions aren’t merely dessert; they’re flavoring added to medicine. Our stories cover up an uncomfortable truth: many of our holiday traditions stem from pagan revelry that included everything from psychedelics to orgies.
