Today’s Sponsor: Mood Gummies 🍁
This cannabis startup pioneered “rapid onset” gummies
Most people prefer to smoke cannabis but that isn’t an option if you’re at work or in public.
That’s why we were so excited when we found out about Mood’s new Rapid Onset THC Gummies. They can take effect in as little as 5 minutes without the need for a lighter, lingering smells or any coughing.
Nobody will ever know you’re enjoying some THC.
We recommend you try them out because they offer a 100% money-back guarantee. And for a limited time, you can receive 20% off with code FIRST20.

The Swiss-Alpine Charm of Argentina
Welcome to Bariloche, the picturesque Patagonian city that feels like a slice of Switzerland in Argentina. Nestled in the foothills of the Andes and surrounded by glacial lakes and snow-capped mountains, Bariloche is a year-round haven for nature lovers and adventure seekers.
