President Donald Trump publicly acknowledged on Monday that his administration is actively considering reclassifying cannabis under federal law, saying the current Schedule I status blocks medical and scientific research. “A lot of people want to see it, the reclassification, because it leads to tremendous amounts of research that can’t be done unless you reclassify,” Trump said when asked directly about cannabis policy. “So we are looking at that very strongly.” The comments represent one of Trump’s clearest on-the-record confirmations to date that cannabis rescheduling remains under serious review, reinforcing recent reporting that the White House is weighing an executive directive…

“Grief is a gift. Right now, it may feel like a curse. It burns every fiber of your being, leaving you feeling lost, alone, and untethered,” says Jessimae Peluso, remembering the period when she lost both of her parents. She does not say it for effect. She says it because she earned it. She says it the way people speak when there is no filter left to protect them. Peluso is known for stand-up comedy, MTV’s Girl Code, a long relationship with humor and weed, and the kind of irreverent timing that makes even the mundane absurd. But somewhere between…

While Millennials grew up fawning over the fantastic trio of Dragon Ball Z, Pokémon, and Sailor Moon, Gen Zers couldn’t care less: they have their own icons. We may all share a love for weed, but these two generations are split by decades, and by very different vibes. It’s a well-known fact that each generation vibes with its own zeitgeist, and Centennials are drawing from new wells and going crazy for “other” works, not those we might consider “classics,” but rather, a reinvention of what we collectively call “anime to watch while high.” It’s been this way since the dawn…

President Donald Trump is weighing an executive order that would push the federal government to reclassify cannabis, a step that could mark the most significant shift in U.S. cannabis policy in decades—even as the White House cautions that no final decision has been made.The deliberations, first reported late Thursday by The Washington Post, center on moving marijuana from Schedule I—the government’s most restrictive category, reserved for drugs deemed to have no accepted medical use—to Schedule III, a classification that would acknowledge medical value and loosen some federal controls.  “This is an encouraging development and a strong indicator that comprehensive legalization…

Trump is reportedly weighing a directive that would push federal agencies to move cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III, but the White House says no final decision has been made. If it happens, Schedule III would bring meaningful 280E tax relief to state-legal operators and ease some research barriers, yet it would still leave cannabis federally illegal, keep interstate commerce off limits, and preserve the basic conflict between state markets and federal law. In other words, it could be real progress for businesses and science, but it would not deliver legalization, descheduling, broad criminal justice reform or a durable…

For a lot of people, cannabis content starts as a joke, a trend, a way to chase numbers. For Stephanie Trenkamp, it started as survival. She was a mom in her garage, lighting up after bedtime, trying to hold it together while figuring out how to help support her family without disappearing from her kids’ lives. Online, she tried everything. Beauty. Lifestyle. Whatever the algorithm seemed to want that week. None of it felt honest. Behind the scenes, she was using cannabis every day, yet the internet version of herself looked like everyone else’s feed. The disconnect turned into burnout,…
