Holodeck Jesus
Holodeck Jesus When I walked into Dancing Goat Gardens, I really wasn’t intending to buy anything – this trip was for Zack. But I have to say, their wall of strains got me. I saw the name “Holodeck Jesus” and immediately got excited before I actually read the description. It turned out to be a…

Features of My Favorite Dispensaries That Make Life Easier For Autistic Stoners
Since legalization, I’ve gone to several dispensaries in the pursuit of specific strains and more affordable bud. As an autistic person, I’m not just weed shopping – I’m also screening the dispensary itself for a neurodivergent-friendly atmosphere. There are a handful of places that I prefer going to, and I’ve identified a few reasons why.…

Autistic Stoner Tips – Enjoying Carts
Carts, also called dab pens, are not a joke. The most important thing to remember is that carts = dabs. They are very strong, and they can really knock you on your ass if you’re uninitiated. However, there are ways to use them very effectively. In fact, I’m using a cart of the strain XJ-13…

Autism + Weed – Tips for Creating a Positive Experience
I have been consuming cannabis in various forms (and levels of legality) since 2013, but I only started doing my research and approaching the topic scientifically for the last year, year and a half. I’ve had some fantastic experiences with cannabis (most as a result of writing for this blog), but I’ve also had some…

April Roundup
In the past three months, I’ve learned a lot about myself and about cannabis. I’ve learned that it’s necessary to set your intentions before getting high – and that I have a favorite terpene profile. Yes, we’ve finally reached a point where I can confidently say what my favorite terpines are. If you look at…

Tolerance Break (From Cannabis, not Content!)
As we come to the end of April, I’ve taken some time to reflect on the future of this blog. Don’t worry, it’s not ending – it’s expanding! I’ve been doing these strain reviews for three months now, and I’m really starting to get the hang of it. I even put out some non-review content,…

Sugar Cookies
This strain is the perfect example of the pitfalls of black and white thinking that we often fall into as autistic people. The information on Leafly is incredibly sparse, and the reviews have some conflicting information. Apparently this strain is supposed to be super calming, while someone else said that they were able to get…

Montana Silvertip
Montana Silvertip is available in pretty much every dispensary you walk into in Missoula, so it was inevitable that I would review it. It did originate in Montana after all. This is actually a strain I tried for the first time in January after rec hit, but I didn’t take notes or anything – I…

Super Silver Haze
Super Silver Haze is an award winning strain, so when I saw it pop up in my favorite dispensary (shoutout to Greenhouse Farmacy), I knew I had to try it. When I mentioned it, the budtender say “Yeah, that one is niiiiiiice.” I have to say, I was a fan of this one. Let’s take…

Blue Dream
When cannabis first went recreational in Montana this past New Year’s, I spent a lot of time googling strains for neurodivergent people. Blue Dream was one of the first ones to catch my eye, and it’s been saved in my favorites on the Leafly app since then. I just haven’t found it, until now. It…
