Why I smoke weed

Spiritual reasons (yes, that's a valid reason) and also medical reasons. I smoke pot because it helps me function. However, I'm also bipolar and that means that I go through depressions that sap my motivation. Usually, my mood is up in the warm months and down in the cold months. My mood flipped when Efeso died. But then, the seasons were changing, so it's possible that I was ready for a depression. - Plus CBD balms are good for my fingers. 🎸 - Spiritually, I see it as getting in touch with the spirit. Yes, that's really how I feel: that psychedelics are soul-revealing and that's essentially getting in touch with one's higher self ... I'm into that New Age crap. I'm on the hunt for LSD currently, though. I had a good trip while editing the Dakumentary in 2023, and I'd like to trip out while watching Wellington Stories. If you're seriously interested in my religious beliefs, I like to joke that I see myself as an 'Agent of Shakti/Shakta' .. I worship feminine energy. Filled in Hindu on my census form.

420 = smoke cannabis

It's a dig at the idea that my films promote drug use. Medical cannabis is legal in New Zealand: it was meant for users. I'm fine with being a global symbol for legalising cannabis and psychedelics.

No, you can't keep saying that I have to make Weeded Out. I intend to seek an injunction to shut you up. That's what will be going down in April and May. Or y'all could just give up today and save me
