Deeply sorry for the inconvenience and disruption…
Newly released testing data of Diamond Shruumz-brand gummies purchased in 2023 identified the presence of psilocin, a hallucinogenic drug closely related to the magic-mushroom drug psilocybin that is classified as a Schedule I drug, alongside psilocybin, heroin, and LSD. The finding comes as Diamond Shruumz’s current line of gummies, chocolates, and candy cones is being recalled and are under active investigation in connection to a nationwide rash of severe illnesses, which have involved seizures, intubation, and intensive care. As of the latest update on July 15, 69 people in 28 states have been sickened after eating a Diamond Shruumz product. Sixty of the 69 sought medical care, 36 were hospitalized, and there is one potentially associated death under investigation.

I’ll stick with my gas station beers, thanks.
The investigators found that cannabis use was significantly associated with psychotic disorders during adolescence (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 11.2; 95% CI, 4.6 to 27.3), but not during young adulthood (aHR, 1.3; 95% CI, 0.6 to 2.6). Adolescents who used cannabis also had a substantially higher risk for hospitalizations and emergency department visits (aHR, 26.7; 95% CI, 7.7 to 92.8), while there was no substantial risk observed in young adulthood (aHR, 1.8; 95% CI, 0.6 to 5.4).

If you have small children I highly recommend this book.

YIKES.
Many people don’t realize that both men and women develop an increased sensitivity and a decreased tolerance to alcohol as they get older. It’s important to pay attention to this issue because research has shown that alcohol use has been increasing among people ages 65 and older in recent years—and the size of the older adult population is expanding rapidly now that people are living longer, notes George Koob, a neuroscientist and director of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. “People are largely unaware of the physiological changes [related to aging] that lead to higher blood alcohol levels and bigger impairments in behavior and cognition.” Why your alcohol tolerance diminishes as you age — https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/alcohol-age-tolerance?rid=BA5F7BEC25AE320E1B6791799E955700&cmpid=org=ngp::mc=crm-email::src=ngp::cmp=editorial::add=Health_20240702

“Meaning is not something you stumble across, like the answer to a riddle or the prize in a treasure hunt. Meaning is something you build into your life. You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties, out of the experience of humankind as it is passed on to you, out of your own talent and understanding, out of the things you believe in, out of the things and people you love, out of the values for which you are willing to sacrifice something. The ingredients are there. You are the only one who can put them together into that unique pattern that will be your life. Let it be a life that has dignity and meaning for you. If it does, then the particular balance of success or failure is of less account.”
