A long time friend that was a living trainwreck of substance abuse recently passed. His brain was literally pickled and fried... it was the brain cancer that ultimately got him.

Stronger stuff maybe, maybe not. Gainesville Green in the 70s was really powerful. Sensimilla. When you get rid of the boys the girls go into superdrive. I doubt anything today is much stronger than it. Yeah I smoked it. “Do you want to try some homegrown”? - oops, one hit blown away.
Then I had my kids and quit all extracuricular activities.
MRI I had in 90s was normal. Don’t know if I would trust buying these days, I think some may have chemicals added.

How horrible!

I’d be way too scared of such side effects to take hard drugs.

Someone near and dear to me has a serious drug problem... I pray for them daily. :-[

Actually, there were 43 healthy participants studied as well.

Yes and supporting a President who is hellbent on importing 680,000 Syrian “refugees” can get you beheaded. I like to remind my liberal pals that the Islamo-Nazis usually start off by using the eye sockets as bowling ball like holes for grip, then they pull back the head and cut the throat like a hot knife through butter. I ask them if they will be thinking about how awesome Obama is at that point as they feel blood flood their throat and lungs. They never answer me.

It’s more that over the years techniques for growing that sweeet sweet sensimilla have been refined and improved, thus there is a lot more of it.

But most dope smokers will call BS and still think they have more brains, better skills and live to be a 150 by smoking any kind of weed.

Pure nonsense. I know this from first hand evidence.

Don’t ask.

You are wrong.

It's far more than that. The strains are more powerful. It is nothing like it was in the past.

When my son was in high school he was on the robotics team.

They traveled to Denver for a competition.

One day when he and his friends got bored they prank called the dispensaries. This was right after MJ was legalized in CO.

Silly.

My son was born too late.

Pot smokers have a harder time transferring information. Color me surprised.

If you smoke it, it’s not medicine.

I’ve had the unfortunate occasion to smell “modern” pot. The smell is indescribably bad, so bad in fact that I would rather pull a skunk corpse that has been in the 100 deg sun for three days over my head than small “modern” pot. It is that bad, you know it can’t be good for you.

Effect of high-potency cannabis on corpus callosum microstructure
All patients underwent clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessments, as soon as possible after their first contact with services. Individuals without psychosis underwent the same neuroimaging assessment. At the time of the MRI, 48 patients were taking atypical antipsychotics, five were taking typical antipsychotics and three were antipsychotic naive.

All but three were taking antipsychotic medicine and it's marijuana that caused the results they garnered?!
