April 18th, 1977. Hollywood, CA. There was something foul and electric in the air that Monday night at the Starwood. The kind of charge you only find when the floor’s slick with beer and the crowd reeks of leather, cigarettes, and bad choices. The volatile energy of a live wire hissing on a wet dance floor—spitting, sparking, waiting to kill whoever got too close. The room was a zoo of freaks—burnouts with thousand-yard stares, thrill junkies itching for damage, leather-clad criminals with joints glued to pierced lips, and the occasional college zombie dragging a terrified date into the pit. The…

The first thing I learned guest budtending in Brooklyn? Your feet hurt before your shift is halfway done. But the conversations make it worth it. I spent the day behind the counter at By Any Other Name (BAON) in Clinton Hill to experience budtending from the inside, where product knowledge matters, but people matter more. Photo by Matt Curry Learning the menu is just the beginning. The real work happens on the floor: listening to people, asking the right questions, and guiding them to something that fits. At BAON, almost every customer was greeted by name, like walking into a…

Entirely by chance, my father is buried just a few rows away from Levi Strauss, the man whose name is synonymous with denim and one of the most enduring clothing brands in American history. For decades, whenever I went to the cemetery just outside San Francisco, I’d quickly pause to say hello to Mr. Strauss. And I always made it a point to tell him, “Thanks for the jeans.” It was kind of our thing. Aside from a few stray words, I seldom speak out loud if I’m by myself, even when I’m hanging out with dead people. That’s why…

Some stories don’t need dressing. They just land. G Herbo sits back, cracks a grin and lets it fly. A story you can picture. “Probably with Snoop,” he says when asked about his most memorable sesh. “I was like 18. I left a bunch of Swishers on the table, came back and Snoop was already rolling my [expletive] up. I was like, ‘Yeah.’ He let me hit the blunt. It was my blunt.” That’s the energy of this sit-down, hosted by Shirley Ju for High Times and presented by Slapwoods. Herbo is calm, funny, direct. He talks like a guy…

Colombian President Gustavo Petro opened a controversial new front line by proposing to U.S. President Donald Trump more than just a trade adjustment: he asked that “the export of cannabis be legalized like any other good, given its exclusion from the UN list of dangerous substances,” through a post on X. Las guerras que Colombia vive desde hace 5 décadas, primero urbana hasta 1993, después rural, se deben al consumo de cocaína en EEUU; aunque han habido aportes de gobiernos estadounidenses a la paz de Colombia, han sigo exigüos y nulos en los últimos años. Se ha construido una… https://t.co/R2SGZEnDfU…

Yelawolf and manager/business partner Edward Crowe fully embrace the fact that they took copious amounts of LSD growing up and became intimately acquainted with the perforated (and often intricately designed) blotter paper. From unique psychedelic artwork to simple 2D symbols printed on each hit, the style was intriguing to Crowe. To Wolf, it symbolized the “effort and care of the dose.” As he told High Times, “The better the art, likely the better your journey will be.”  Crowe grew interested in making their own blotter art after implementing the style for Yelawolf’s 2021 album, Mudmouth, and its accompanying film with…
