Mushroom Brazil Bong

 Mushroom Brazil Bong
$29.34

The Mushroom Brazil Bong is crisp and clean, the little guy looks like a good smoking companion. The mushroom fellow attached to this 7 inch tall waterpipe, or bong, is a cool character. His eyes are red even before you get there.

This is just one of the cool pieces you can get at Grasscity.Com, the marijuana superstore. They don't actually claim to be a superstore, but they're the closest thing marijuana culture has to a Wal-Mart. They sell a complete variety of smoking and clothing merchandise, all geared towards and at the convenience of stoners.

Seven inches is a medium size for a bong. This is a piece that's left out even when it's not in use, just to show off it's artistry. It could sit alone on a coffee table or windowsill, the focus of many admirer's gaze.

Not many stoners own a piece that they can be proud of. Something to show to those who come over. The Mushroom Brazil Bong is the sort of piece people like to look at. After marijuana is legalized you'll probably see these stylish trinkets in Bed, Bath, & Beyond, maybe. They're so cute.

Wild Marijuana Plants

The Cannabis Plant is one of the most resilient plants in the world. It can grow almost anywhere without any help from anyone. Which is why some pot activists like to plant the weed seeds they find in local parks, and other green areas. Here are some photos of pot growing in the nature. The last one is pretty sad and not for the faint of heart.

Jamullah - Scented T-Shirt

Jamullah's Freedom Gift Shop

You'll always smell like weed after you smoke but your clothes don't have to.

Jamullah isn't just about T-Shirts, it's also poetry and art. Even though shirts aren't their everything they are still able to take it up a notch with scented tees. Their line of scented t-shirts, blends designs with soft scents that are just strong enough to enjoy.

Jamullah Scented T-Shirts - Durascent

The scents are supposed to stay in the shirts for many washes. I haven't washed mine yet, but for as long as the scent lasts it's novelty is just a bonus. The designs on the shirts are the real catch. Not all of the shirts have marijuana themes, but there's plenty interesting ones in the batch. Though it does help that you can choose scents such as the classic patchouli oil, rose, hemp, and the Snoop Dogg "Lightin Up" shirts come in hemp and cherry.



The shirt I received was the "Jamullah Signature", it was peppermint scented. The design on the shirt is a piece of original art work in the Jamullah style. The peppermint scent also proved to be a pretty cool addition. It's not strong like cologne, instead it smells like the shirt was dried with peppermint scented fabric softener. It's natural and unobtrusive.

The Freedom Gift Shop also sells grinders. Each one comes with the trademark Jamullah Fish engraved on top. If you don't already have a grinder, this is a good one to get if you're feeling artsy. The Jamullah pollen grinders are also equipped with all the features a regular smoker should have. A screen that catches the weed as it drops through, and another compartment under the screen to catch your keif. Keif is a fine powder with super potency that get's separated from marijuana when grinding.

Marijuana News - MPAA Raitings Restrict Pot

Meryl Streep's and Alec Baldwin's new film, It's Complicated, recieved an "R" rating for depicting pot use "with no bad consequences." (L.A. Times)

The ratings the MPAA dishes out to Movies, are like Supreme Court ruilings, they are unchangeable and the act to define our morals. That's a little heavy, but it's true. Both parties shape America's values, sense of justice, and social atitudes. Only, the MPAA isn't part of our government.

The rating on "It's Complicated" has started a lot of discussion. In a country that has moved pot so close to the main stream, is it fair for the MPAA to try to sterilize our culture. Millions of Americans smoke pot everyday, and nothing happens, why shouldn't a movie be able to depict that reality?

At the very best the MPAA can say that it's speaking out for parents who do not want their children to view marijuana as an acceptable possibility of their future. In that case though marijuana should be completely excluded from films. Allowing only pot use with negative consequences, forces films to include a message on par with public service announcements. If real elements of danger are to be removed they should also definitely require violence to be "Restricted". A better idea would be to explain things to our kids so that instead of sterilizing the environment, we instead make them as strong as they need to be to handle it.

An "R" rating means the only people restricted are those 16 and under. Those under 16 require adult supervision. So what's the big deal. This is a way parents can decide what kind of movies their child watches. The issue is with the power the MPAA has over all movies. They decide what's acceptable for us without any input from us. Even many adult movies are edited extensively so that they pass standards for an "R" rating.

Kid Cudi and Vampire Weeked - Video Stash

"Cudderisbaked" by Jason Goldwatch

Kid Cudi the "Lonely Stoner"

Stiletto Stoners - Pot Culture

Are you a "Stiletto Stoner"

Stiletto Stoner is a phrase popularized by Marie Claire magazine to describe adult women, especially career women, who smoke pot. The buzz that it has created is like a fresh breeze for those who live under the taboo of being a stoner. It's like a nod from the media letting you know your not alone, lots of people smoke weed. In a test they found 8 million women in America have smoked marijuana In the last week.

Marie Claire magazine went on msnbc with Dr. Julie Holland to explain the Stiletto Stoner trend, and actually did a pretty good job to advocate for legalization in the process, albeit indirectly. Groups like @moms4marijuana on twitter, have been trying to show America that there are regular people who smoke pot. What's funny is most of the women who smoke pot aren't afraid of get caught, or of addiction, (MarieClaire.com) but it's still a burden to live part of your life in secret.

The inclusion of the Stiletto Stoner into popular social stereotypes, should be an eye opener for anyone else who believes Americans cannot manage smoking marijuana. It's a clue that there are active members in society that smoke pot. Some of them wear stilettos, some of them are teachers or lawyers. All of them are intelligent enough to balance their own lives, and have taken the freedom to do so. Unfortunately some of them have also ended up as one of hundreds of thousands arrested for possession of tiny amounts of pot.

The story has gone through the wires multiple times now, but for most the message stays hidden. America is turning large groups of people into criminals, but they're finding out that most Americans don't choose their morals based on what is legal They choose their laws based on what they think is moral. More and more marijuana legalization seems inevitable, unfortunately that makes the situations of those who are being arrested and their families, so much sadder.

Suicide Girls - Beauty Redefined? - SuicideGirls.Com

SuicideGirls.com

The Suicide Girls are all about the beauty and sexuality of thin tattooed women. SuicideGirls.com's self description is "Beautiful naked girls - punk rock girls, emo girls, goth girls tattoo girls". Yeah that's a little weird. Don't get me wrong the art is beautiful, the poses, the expression, the skin, the composition, they have all of what makes nudity art. The title though, gives you the idea that they're marketing a little too much like porn sites do.

Suicide Girls is jumping into cannabis culture by including pot in their newest film. The short section of the film features Suicide Girls Kiefer, Radeo, Rambo, and Lanei showing their joint rolling skills. Of course as the girls grow tired of their clothes, they remove them. All backed with a good beat to boot.

One of the interesting aspects of their site is the profile pages for the models. I got a kick out of the real stuff they're all interested in. Like Thome Yorke, who is the lead singer of Radiohead and  a confirmed Coachella Music Festival performer for instance, that's good music. I even heard reference to the legendary "based on real life" book I hope They Serve Beer in Hell.


Suicide Girls considers themselves to be "beauty redefined". While their models express alternative cultures, they don't stray very far from the stereotypical western views of a sexy body type. In fact it's mostly a group of white women with relatively low body fat. That's not bad but it's definitely not new either.

I know it may seem strange that I would have any beef with all this cheesecake, and I really don't. The pictures are beautiful. The women are beautiful, but when you represent such a narrow aspect of beauty you're bound to leave some people out. Logically they can't represent everything, and it is the tradition of art to know your goal. As Picasso chose to show the world it's beauty through cubist and other forms abstract paintings, Suicide Girls has chosen the photography of thin, edgy, and tattooed women. 

It's hard to decide whether or not the Suicide Girls photos can be qualified as being "all" art. Sex sells too easily and they don't represent themselves well enough. But it's unfair of us to pass on the sins of a few photographers and/or marketers to the individual photos. They contain the beauty of real women, even if it's just the one's of a certain type.

Purple Power - Sativa - Baked Life's Strain Encycolopedia

In the late 1980s, the famous import purple marijuana strains were popular to smoke. The only problem was that they were difficult to grow. Purple Power was one of the solutions to this problem. The easy to grow plant is a Sativa that was created from a cross between Purple Haze and Early Skunk.

Purple Power is a dense bud marijuana with purple all over it. The orange hairs are unnoticeable, it's all about the purple with this one. Of course it's plenty frosty too. There's a good amount of crystals coating the bud.

Purple Power has a mild but distinct sweet and sour smell, like a sour candy. The taste is tropical, and sweeter than the smell. Purple Power smokes mild and has little expansion. The buzz is clear and upbeat. Many like to toke Purple Power during the day, since the high is supplies an energetic buzz and keeps the user awake and functional.

Marijuana Cooking Oil - Cannabis Kitchen

Being able to make cooking oil infused with the active ingredients of marijuana is one of the most important techniques of cooking with cannabis. Marijuana cooking oil can be used as a substituted for regular oil in any recipe. After you learn this recipe you'll be able to make a large variety of cannabis dishes.


Makes 1 Cup

Ingredients:

1 cup of oil
8 grams of marijuana :-)




Preparation:

Grind up marijuana (the finer the better). Combine ground marijuana. If possible, cover and allow to sit out overnight. Letting the mixture sit is not necessary, but it makes the oil more potent.

In a large saucepan place the oil over low heat. The mixture should be just under a simmer. You don't want there to be any evaporation. Allow to coom for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Allow mixture to cool. Strain marijuana with a metal coffee filter, or nylon. Make sure to strain it properly. And there you go. Fresh Marijuana Cooking Oil.
