When it comes to discipline and direction, I’ve spent most of my life unaware that I had control over a majority of my experience each day. This mentality bled into my vision of the future, negatively. I was reactive, instead of proactive. A major turning point in my life was when I realized that at…
Let’s be honest, every year that passes seems to bring new norms, new expectations, and new pressures. We really do live in a society. Even when nothing changes, the daily grind can begin to wear you down mentally. Corporations and governments will demand every ounce of attention you have and use it against you. Often…
I’ve been an addict to social media from the get-go. I begged my parents when I was 12 to let me lie about my age (you had to be 13 to join) and get a Facebook profile with all my friends. It was exciting and new! Being connected to the other kids my age, sharing…
Kurt Cobain has been heavy on my mind recently, probably due to the fact that Nirvana made headlines recently when it was reported that Spencer Elden, the baby who was photographed for the cover of their legendary record Nevermind, released back in 1991, decided recently to sue the band for what he claims is now child…

I turned 32 back in June, and about 2 or 3 months before my birthday I picked up a hobby again that I had abandoned, for no apparent reason, years ago – skateboarding. I first began skating when I was about 15 and I was absolutely obsessed with it. It was around that time that…
On January 14th, 2020 my son was born, and (as cliché as it sounds) my life changed. It was about a month before COVID would ravage every aspect of our lives, I had just turned 30 back in June and it felt like I was officially heading into another phase of my adulthood. I had…
So, you’ve decided to begin your study into the ancient art of the enigmatic wake n’ bake – the age-old technique that has been passed down from the most elite stoner lore.
