  • The "Indica = sleepy/couch-locked; Sativa = energy/head high" belief isn't true. The effects are caused by a complex mix of chemicals that isn't fully understood yet, and few producers talk about. Sativa and Indica have very little, if anything, to do with it. It also doesn't help that the vast majority of strains are hybrids, making the terms even more useless. The terms are just slapped on any strain that is perceived as uplifting or relaxing (edit: or have a genetic mix being majority one or the other).

  • The cannabis industry, legal or otherwise, has always been full of lies and pseudoscience. If it's not the big business capitalists, it was the small time dealer capitalists.

    When asking for suggestions, budtenders still ask me if I want Indica or Sativa. I always answer, "it doesn't matter." They should know it doesn't matter and not be pushing decades-old debunked info.

  • Somewhat related, but not really: I hear that Gen Z (in general) are worse at tech support issues than the past couple generations. The theory is that Gen Z grew up with tech that, for the most part, "just works". Troubleshooting issues isn't as common, and isn't as necessary of a skill.
