But the scariest part is that this happened THREE WEEKS AGO, and we are just now hearing about it.@POTUS should demand her release immediately.
Griner seems to have the WNBA’s “full support”. According to a statement, “our primary focus is her safe and easy return to The Us.”
What is Hash oil?
Hash oil seems to be a powerful cannabis extraction that can be inhaled, vaped, eaten, or used topically. It can sometimes be referred to as “dabbing” or “burning.” The advantages of hash oil include essentially identical to those of marijuana. This can cause euphoria as well as aid in the treatment of nausea, discomfort, and inflammation. Because oil is much more powerful than other types of marijuana, its impacts are much more strong too though. Marijuana users use this to treat medical problems like severe pain or cancer may benefit from it in the long run.
Alternate vision, changes in mood, poor motion, reduced memory, memory, dizziness, exhaustion, panic, anxiety, delusions, insanity, cannabis hyperemesis syndrome (CHS), and dependency are some of the negative effects.
