These cannabis gummies keep selling out in 2024

If you've ever struggled to enjoy cannabis due to the harshness of smoking or vaping, you're not alone. That’s why these new cannabis gummies caught our eye.

Mood is an online dispensary that has invented a “joint within a gummy” that’s extremely potent yet federally-legal. Their gummies are formulated to tap into the human body’s endocannabinoid system.

Although this system was discovered in the 1990’s, farmers and scientists at Mood were among the first to figure out how to tap into it with cannabis gummies. Just 1 of their rapid onset THC gummies can get you feeling right within 5 minutes!

👎🏻 I know it’s only been four weeks, but I feel I know y’all well enough to get something off my chest. I’m mad as hell – and I won’t take this anymore.

I imagine you’re saying, “But Roger, what has you so riled up? Elon Musk? Bad AI apps? Unpleasant new OREO flavor?”

No! It’s my true nemesis: meme pages on Instagram.

Last year I Tweeted this incredibly funny post on X, The Everything App (formerly known as Twitter, The Nothing App.)

While it’s not my biggest Tweet ever (that honor goes to the time I killed Crazy Frog), it is absolutely my most commonly “aggregated” Tweet.

As Spirit Halloween season ramps up, almost every day I have a friend tagging me or texting me to say that I’ve been “featured” on accounts like Worst Buy. They have almost 1M followers! I don’t!

You know what? I’m sick of it. And I think the people who run these meme pages should pay the piper – lest I unleash a flood of snakes on them (I don’t remember that story, honestly). 

But hey, at least they kept my handle on the screenshot – definitely a step up from the glory days of JerryMedia and similar slop aggregators circa 2015.
