The research behind this is wild. Your sperm carries a set of instructions that tell your genes when to turn on and off. A Duke University study found that THC rewrites those instructions. The more weed in your system, the bigger the changes. It goes straight for the genes your future embryo needs in its first week of life. I had to read the "day 3 crash" part twice. For the first three days after fertilization, an embryo runs entirely on the mother's DNA. Day 3, the father's genes switch on. If those genes carry cannabis damage, the embryo just stops growing. Fertility doctors see this happen in their labs: embryos that fertilized fine and looked healthy on day 2 go completely still by day 5. Boston University tracked 1,535 couples trying to have a baby. Men who smoked weed once a week or more doubled their partner's miscarriage risk. That number held up even when the woman herself never touched cannabis. And the miscarriages clustered in the first 8 weeks, right when the father's damaged DNA would be doing the most harm. Duke also found that the specific genes THC alters in sperm overlap with genes linked to autism. One of those genes, called DLGAP2, helps brain cells communicate with each other. It was changed in cannabis users' sperm. When researchers bred THC-exposed male rats and checked their offspring, the same altered gene pattern showed up in the pups' brains. The damage crossed a generation. Weed has gotten way stronger over the last 30 years. THC content was about 4% in the 1990s but nearly quadrupled to 15% by 2018, and modern dispensary strains regularly sit at 20-30%. Concentrates go up to 95%. Quitting for about 11 weeks (one full cycle of sperm production) reverses some of the DNA changes. Not all of them. Duke's lead researcher says men should stop at least 6 months before trying for a baby. Half of your kid's genetic blueprint comes from you, and right now, THC is editing that blueprint before conception even happens.

Cannabis is detrimental to sperm: even if they can fertilize, there can be DNA damage. Many miscarriages and (in the case of IVF) “day 3 crashes” which is when paternal DNA normally kicks in, are cannabis related. Dr Natalie Crawford on the Huberman Lab podcast out now.

@CotterAd @anishmoonka What if.....weed AND alcohol aren't good for us. Wouldn't that be wild? I have smoked plenty of weed in my life but I accepted the trade-offs. Weed is obviously not good for us. It might be okay at small doses once in a while but regular use is bad.

@MilesTrav @KevinhasHeat @TrailheadMafia @anishmoonka You had alcoholism in your family at any point in your life? Bet you have. That’s what obvious and blatant addiction looks like. Pick a substance for your daughter’s husband to be addicted to.

@CotterAd @KevinhasHeat @TrailheadMafia @anishmoonka Literally everyone I've seen who claims they only smoke in moderation, and can quit anytime they want, is still obviously and blatantly addicted. Half of what they talk about is weed, half of what they look forward to is weed, and they all obsessively defend weed.

@MilesTrav @KevinhasHeat @TrailheadMafia @anishmoonka Are all who consume a substance consumed by it? You can have a glass of wine and not punch fuck out of your wife, same as you can have a joint without thinking the Feds are outside. The world has a normie problem. You’ve got everyone in their neat little boxes.

@KevinhasHeat @TrailheadMafia @anishmoonka @CotterAd That's because they're paranoid stoners who think someone's coming to take away their addiction. All potheads can do is point to everything else and claim that they're fine because other bad stuff exists. They're probably the biggest excuse makers I've ever seen.

@tjoshiebestfan @TrailheadMafia @KevinhasHeat @anishmoonka It’s a real struggle to find huh? It’s on billboards everywhere and part of the socially acceptable culture of the entire Western world. Had alcoholism in your family in the past or currently? Bet you have. You know fine well how it goes.

Andoni Iraola is set to leave Bournemouth at the end of the season, currently earning around £1.5M a year. For context, Brendan Rodgers returned to Celtic in June 2023 on a deal worth roughly £3M per year making him the highest-paid manager in the club’s history. That puts Iraola well within our financial reach. For me, we would be absolutely crazy not to at least ask the question and put a serious offer on the table for a manager of his quality. Just to be clear this isn’t a rumour, just common sense.

@TrailheadMafia @KevinhasHeat @anishmoonka No, it’s because alcohol causes the greatest harm to families and society of all the drugs, by many orders of magnitude. Yet its long entrenched status, ease of access, lack of regulation and massive corporate greed make every post such as the OP worthy of questioning.

@KevinhasHeat @anishmoonka @CotterAd That’s because social media is a fucking cesspool, and stoners by default tend to think everyone is out to get them.

Watch J.R.R. Tolkien’s 1962 interview about The Lord of the Rings. If Tolkien were alive to respond, his answer would likely sound something like this: "I never set out to write a treatise on medieval governance or the practical burdens of kingship. My work is a mythology an exploration of moral truth, not political mechanics. Aragorn is not meant to be a bureaucrat but an archetype: the just king of legend, much like Arthur. Myth is concerned with the heart of a ruler, not the tax policies of his court. The question of governance in the modern sense belongs to another kind of story one that I entirely respect, but did not seek to write. Real history is indeed complicated, but myth speaks to deeper, older truths. Power in my world is already perilous; no one may wield it without cost. Even the wise refuse the Ring, for good intentions alone are never sufficient. In that sense, my work hardly denies the burden of rule it only treats it in a different language. As for the orcs: they are not a people I delight in destroying. Their existence is a tragedy, a corruption of something that was once good. No just king would slaughter the innocent, for even in the darkest creatures there remains a spark of the original creation. Mercy is not weakness; it is the highest form of strength. You ask questions proper to politics. I ask questions proper to myth. Both have their place, but they need not answer each other in the same terms.

George R.R. Martin explains how his Game of Thrones characters wielding power badly is his answer to Tolkien: "Ruling is hard. This was maybe my answer to Tolkien, whom, as much as I admire him, I do quibble with. Lord of the Rings had a very medieval philosophy: that if the king was a good man, the land would prosper. We look at real history and it’s not that simple. Tolkien can say that Aragorn became king and reigned for a hundred years, and he was wise and good. But Tolkien doesn’t ask the question: What was Aragorn’s tax policy? Did he maintain a standing army? What did he do in times of flood and famine? And what about all these orcs? By the end of the war, Sauron is gone but all of the orcs aren’t gone – they’re in the mountains. Did Aragorn pursue a policy of systematic genocide and kill them? Even the little baby orcs, in their little orc cradles? Real-life kings had real-life problems to deal with. Just being a good guy was not the answer. You had to make hard, hard decisions. Sometimes what seemed to be a good decision turned around and bit you in the ass; it was the law of unintended consequences. I’ve tried to get at some of these in my books. My people who are trying to rule don’t have an easy time of it. Just having good intentions doesn’t make you a wise king." What do you think Tolkien would have thought about such comments?
