Keefe D's Creepy 2Pac "Trophies"

 

Below are some snippets of evidence found in murder defendant Keith "Keefe D" Davis's home when police raided it.  While 2Pac was world famous and highly beloved by millions, the presence of this abundance of creepy, obsessive "memorabilia" is damning for Davis, as some of it comes from stories released BEFORE the rapper died.  Now why would somebody hold onto that for all these years?

Snipped from the newspaper before 2Pac even died...

Dated September 16th, 1996.  Tupac died on September 13th, 1996.

Just a few selections entered into the 2Pac murder trial evidence bank.  It should be noted that Keefe D began coughing and hacking violently as these clippings were presented.  Methinks he's not gonna have a great time in prison.  2Pac was almost deified by Black people and the wider world in general, plus he'd done time himself.  Keefe D?  Just a low-level "crackhead" (Reggie Wright's wording) bum whose only claim to fame is murdering said beloved entertainer.  

That said, I hope prosecutors don't plan to stop with Keefe D.  The evidence is abundant that he and others were incentivized monetarily to kill the victims and rob their crew by Bad Boy label owner Sean "Diddy" Combs.

We Own Nothing and We're Fucking SICK of It

Y'all remember when we could buy things with our money?  And then we OWNED them?  After that, we could do whatever we wanted:  take good care of them, crush them in the street in protest, have them repaired or repair them ourselves...

I still have some of the things I got in childhood, like my Super Nintendo and all my games (still works perfectly!), a few books from early childhood and a lot of my clothes.  Things were made to last, not to fall apart after a few trips through the washing machine.  That's because most of them were made in the U.S.A. or other Western countries with high quality materials.  My parents still have a clock radio from the 1970s they use to wake up every morning.  That thing will outlive us all....

Stompin' CDs in protest of gangsta rap (1990s)

Planned obsolescence changed all that.  Tech products like the iPhone are literally made to stop working after a certain point, or to slow so significantly you're forced to upgrade to the next $1,500 version.  On the other end of the spectrum are items made so poorly and cheaply they fall apart after a couple of uses, like our Chinese-made clothes.  "Fast fashion," they call it.  Our landfills are full of it and we've got stores like Temu, Shein, Zara and H&M to thank.  China makes most of our consumer products now including important things like generic medications.  This has caused some life-threatening problems with both medication shortages and quality issues.  This is not a "Chinese conspiracy" but a result of U.S. politicians selling this country out from under us by allowing U.S. corporations to outsource their labor to the lowest bidder.  "Lowest" means lowest; it doesn't matter if they're incarcerated, undocumented, trafficked against their will or underage sweatshop or slaughterhouse workers.  Aside from the obvious slavery and criminal nature of this practice, it puts consumers at risk.  

There's another kind of consumer issue happening that absolutely shouldn't be, and I'm not even sure it has a name.  The subscription issue.  Instead of buying tapes or CDs that we own after purchase, we rent our music from streaming services like Spotify or Apple Music, which charge monthly fees that cost as much as a cassette tape and nearly as much as a CD.  EVERY FUCKING MONTH.  They can remove songs or entire artists' catalogs at any time with no warning, make it difficult to log in or do other shady shit such as charging less than half the price for a Premium subscription in countries like Romania compared to the U.S. for the exact same service, or occasionally force unwanted & unrelated add-ons like Hulu to justify the ever-rising price.  

Comparison of Romanian & American Spotify Premium prices.

It's the same with TV and movies:  subscribe to 50 separate networks and pay 50 separate fees every single month, then you STILL have to pay to "rent" certain movies or shows on networks like Amazon Prime.  You can watch any episode of SNL once you pay for a Peacock subscription, but not the whole episodes as they were originally broadcast.  They've cut out over half the broadcast on most episodes, including most of the musical guests because they don't wanna pay for the rights (but they don't mind taking YOUR money for a subscription!).  Some episodes are as short as 20 minutes, making them essentially "clips" or highlight reels.  At the same time, these corporate giants use DMCA takedown threats to rid the Internet Archive of alternative ways to access this content, rendering the cut footage essentially Lost Media. 






Muzzling the Internet

[nostalgia intensifies]

That's the other side of this coin:  If you weren't around for Internet 1.0, you missed out on something truly special.  Actual freedom of speech existed for a brief glorious time, as well as a sense of community in whatever weird niche area you were interested in, be it a favorite TV show, True Crime, politics, music, drug chat, local current events or what have you.  Sites like Topix & Zoklet were a Wild West of chaos where bad things indeed did happen, but it was your choice to involve yourself in them or not.  I was a mere spectator shaking my head at the drama... 

Craigslist and Backpage.com were the backalley of the clearnet where prostitution was rife and hopeful romantics shot their "missed connections" shot with pathetically hilarious Want Ads about briefly locking eyes with a stranger in the meat aisle.  There was Experience Project, which hosted every kind of written content you could imagine, as well as grey-market substance discussion boards like The Altered States and the short-lived Yellow Brick Road (YBR).   

Internet 1.0 was not really appealing to kids because there was no social media, no Youtube... you had to know how to code to an extent to access anything worthwhile.  It was all chat rooms, discussion forums and other dry "boring" formats.  Instead of Instagram, Facebook & TikTok, we had Angelfire, Tripod and Geocities, where making your own page was both an art and a science and you had to have some degree of OCD to make it look halfway decent.  But your finished page could say or contain basically anything you wanted.  ANYTHING. 

And oh, how great was the beauty of Napster, Kazaa, Limewire and mp3 Rocket, where you could download (for free!) music shared by peers and it was yours to own forever.  I would gladly pay for a service like that again; instead I pay $12.99/month to "stream" music that may go poof at any time and will be riddled with intrusive ads if I stop paying.  

"You Will Own Nothing And You Will Like It"

The dream is dead.

What happened to the promise of human advancement via the information superhighway?  Being able to share things you love with people on the other side of the world with the click of a button?  Corporate greed is what.  If sharing said thing causes them to lose even one penny, it must be stopped.  The Napster ruling was the first big shoe to drop followed by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).  There are still some great pirate sites available on the clearnet (shout out to Cineby, Bflix & Scribd) but even those are under constant threat of being wiped out.  (R.I.P. ev01.to & Z-Library).  

When I think of all the forums and websites that have been dropped by their webhost, sued out of existence, DDoS'ed into extinction, taken down directly by the Nanny State or even de-indexed by the Internet Archive, I get sad.  Then angry.  None of this was about "protecting children," saving people from drug OD, preventing bullying or stopping sex trafficking.  Not one iota.  Peer-to-peer sharing of music and movies cuts into corporate profits, as does the selling of drugs like research chemicals (bath salts, Spice, kratom, Salvia and others that weren't explicitly illegal at the time but didn't require you to pay three times for: once at the doctor, once at the private insurer and again at the pharmacy). 

Sex trafficking didn't stop when they shut down Backpage, it just moved back to the streets where it's more dangerous for the victims and harder for law enforcement to monitor, not that they really care that much anyway.  The vast majority of pedophile busts are conducted by citizen journalists like Chris Hansen and the hundred other vigilante predator hunter groups out there doing the Lord's work (also, the cops' work).  It's ALL about money, 100% of the things our government does.  They now exist solely to protect the profits of billionaire CEOs regardless of how it affects us.  And we allowed it to get to this point every time we didn't get in the street and protest loudly and, if need be, violently like the French.

The recent "age verification" porn laws are the latest egregious example.  Imagine having your real name, address, the photo on your driver's license, entire watch history, all the comments/messages you've sent and any uploads leaked to the dark net in a data breach, which happens daily with big corporations like Sony & Walmart, who should have airtight data security.  The potential for blackmail and threats to one's life are huge.  Teens are dying due to "sextortion" all the time in the U.S. after sending a single nude photo to scammers... imagine what they could do with your entire porn history! 

And our leaders don't give a one damn.  These are the same leaders who haven't brought a single Epstein client to trial despite literal video footage of them raping children, hours of flight logs, financial receipts and much more.  That's not a coincidence, btw.  It's our punishment for demanding they be brought to justice for THEIR crimes. 👴🏻🏝





Final Thoughts

Not a rhetorical question

What happens if the internet goes down for an extended period for some reason, be it war, telecommunications/satellite failure or anything else?  What products and services would you still be able to access?  Could you do your job?  Pay your bills?  Purchase basic necessities? 

This might seem like "Old woman shaking fist at sky" now, but if you were to add up all the money you've spent over the years on subscriptions and realize you own nothing in return for it, maybe then you'd see the impact.  Or maybe the internet would truly have to go dark for an extended period for you to realize what they've taken from us.  Either way, I need you to start giving a damn because none of this is normal. 

Contact the FCC about Spotify, Amazon, your local cable company & other online and communications-based companies that are blatantly ripping you off.  I wrote the FCC about my local scammy ass cable company a couple years back & had surprisingly positive results.  Just saying.  There's strength in numbers as you can see with the kratom community's effect on the quality of kratom-related journalism, so speak up!  🗣📣

Cop Confesses Under Oath to Knowledge About Diddy's Involvement in 2Pac Murder (and Doing Nothing!)

We've all known it forever, but to hear a police officer say it under oath is something different.  Diddy offered a bounty to have Tupac Shakur and Suge Knight murdered by the Southside Crips.  When only Tupac was killed, he paid $500,000 to middle man Zip Martin (deceased), who never gave it to the Crips.  

Ex-LAPD officer Daryn Dupree testifying under oath.

And there it is.  But here's something we didn't know:  they suspected the Southside Crips of also murdering 2Pac's rival Biggie Smalls because the Crips were never paid by Diddy for the 2Pac murder!  

Compton police officer casually discloses this bombshell.

There are so many things wrong with this picture I don't know where to start.  The officer above was assigned to a Biggie Smalls murder investigation task force when Biggie's mom sued the LAPD a few years back.  They STARTED with the assumption that Diddy paid for 2Pac's killing but did not share any evidence with Las Vegas Metro PD, the city where 2Pac's murder investigation took place.  It was just considered a given.  But they also suspected this payment was responsible for the death of ANOTHER beloved rapper and did nothing.  Then they acted surprised when Keefe D (of the Southside Crips) "confessed" to killing 2Pac and even gave him a proffer agreement as if it was valuable information.  Meanwhile for all these years, Sean Combs has been free to rape, beat & "disappear" more people.  

WHY DID NOBODY IN LAW ENFORCEMENT ACT ON THIS INFORMATION?  Could you or I pay half a million dollars to have someone--a celebrity--killed and be left alone by police entirely for THREE DECADES?  Fuck no, we couldn't.  It's immaterial whether the payment was given to the Crips or kept by the middle man.  He was also paying bounties of $10,000 for every Death Row chain the Crips could snatch in the run-up to the MGM fight that cost 2Pac his life.  That's literally why they attacked Orlando Anderson:  because of the Lakewood Mall incident in which a Death Row chain was snatched from MOB Piru affiliate Trayvon Lane's neck.  Take away the cash incentive from Diddy and that likely never would've happened.  

I've said it before but Diddy was more involved in the 2Pac murder than Charles Manson was in the "Manson Murders".  If this heartless murdering chomo is released from prison without standing trial for the killing of 2Pac, it's 100% proof positive we live in a gangster society where wealth excuses murder.  I say investigate the cops who knew this info and didn't share it as well.  Were they paid to keep quiet?  Threatened?  Did they already know Diddy was a Fed asset and just left him alone?  

There's a lot of blood on a lot of hands and nobody currently paying for it except a low-life half retαrded blowhard named Keefe D.  🤬

Attack of the Clones

No.

Just a quick question for all the proudly unmedicated schizos* who like to claim that various celebrities & other public figures have been killed and "cloned".  WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?  Do you realize how utterly retarded you sound?  How out of touch with reality you are?  I'm serious.  Everything else you say after this point goes straight into the 🗑 because the premise for your thinking is so faulty it's not worth humoring, kinda like that maniac Daniel David Palmer who created the chiropractic discipline based on ghosts telling him some shit.  I--here, see for yourself:

Chiropractic is quackery and its creator was insane.

...thus, nothing that comes after that kind of faulty premise can be of legitimate factual basis.  The foundation has to be solid before the rest of the argument can be taken seriously.  So when you make the absurd, unproven and supernatural claim that a human being has been secreted away and replaced with an exact physical replica in the form of a clone or a body double, you'd better come with some airtight evidence to prove it.  It's similar to how that grifting maroon Alex Jones started the "crisis actor" nonsense during the Sandy Hook tragedy.  I don't know if you guys are smoking too much weed or what, but it's not doing nice things for your perception of reality.  Stop it.

The most recent public figure I saw make this embarrassing claim was a guest on SNL alum Jim Breuer's Youtube show, and he absolutely did nothing to refute or deny the idiotic claims.  In fact, it was his own vague claims about comedian Dave Chappelle, once his close friend and co-star on projects like Half Baked, that prompted the guy's comments.   See below:

Hunh?

Breuer claims Dave was "visited" by unnamed assailants shortly before his trip to Africa in the early 2000s and then lets his guest run with the suggestion.  It's a shame because other claims he's made about what goes on in Hollywood were intriguing and troubling, and I wanted to believe him.  I actually liked him on mid-'90s era SNL, but it seems like he's gone around the bend to the religious fundie side which tends to be tits-deep in conspiracy BS like this.  

And let me just say, it does a major disservice to actual victims of financial exploitation, sexual abuse, human trafficking, child abuse of all kinds... everything bad that happens in Hollywood, D.C. and other "institutions".  When "run-of-the-mill" horrors like those I just listed aren't enough to keep your attention so you sprinkle in supernatural, sci-fi or fantasy elements, you're diverting focus from victims and helping abusers.  Read that until you understand it.  Don't nobody want to hear about aliens, vampires, zombies, cloned humans or other Satanic Panic, L. Ron Hubbard-level horseshit when researching the awful things humans do to each other.  We want offender names and other useful details.  Preferably you'd turn this info over to the cops instead of the Internet Bureau of Investigations, but if you're going to vent it publicly, at least stay on topic.

It's the same with people who allude to a "Jewish conspiracy" running the banks, the media, Hollywood, Wall Street & other powerful institutions:  it's not that such a thing would be impossible with the America-Israel alliance; the problem is nobody ever provides a shred of evidence to support said conspiracy.  No names, no examples of Jews in high places abusing their power (personal anecdotes we haven't heard of, I mean--things only the victim and maybe a handful of others know), specific times/places/receipts.  It's all vague allusions to "tunnels," New World Orders and some shit Kanye said while in a nitrous induced yes-man enabled manic state.  When I say "proof," I don't mean a sus 1940s-era quote from an Israeli leader or similar.  I.  Mean.  Proof.  Something you could present in a court of law:  raw video, unretouched photos, financial receipts, flight logs, security cam footage, etc.

If you're afraid for your safety, there's always privacy measures like remaining anonymous by using a VPN + incognito browser & sharing the info with a journalist or other 3rd party via encrypted email like Protonmail based in Switzerland.  For added safety, type the text part of your message into a website like privnote or one of its competitors & link it in the email.  Strip your photos and videos of their Exif and metadata before sending.  If you have a Chromebook, restart it and log back in as "Guest" so it doesn't link your activity to your real email account.  Whatever you gotta do, but stop with the vague allusions to things that most certainly didn't happen.  It doesn't make you sound smart or powerful unless you consider the guy pushing a shopping cart on the street and muttering at the clouds to be a powerful genius.  🛒🚶🏻🗯

No CEOs on Death Row: My Beef with the Death Penalty

Since absolutely nobody asked, here's my main gripe with capital punishment.  (Well, aside from all those botched and rushed executions in the face of possibly exculpatory evidence).  My #1 issue with the death penalty in America is its unequal application.  Most people on death row are indeed guilty of their crimes, and horrific crimes they are.  They deserve to be where they are.  But they shouldn't be there alone.  Black people and other minorities/poor people are disproportionately represented to the point that they're nearly the only people represented at all.  When's the last time you saw an American CEO or multi-millionaire on death row?  Oh, right.  Never.  Not once, even when they committed murder or mass murder knowingly in the name of greed.  A few notable examples include:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Bayer AIDS scandal:  In the 1980s, Bayer's Cutter Biological division knowingly sold HIV-tainted hemophilia blood products to Asia and Latin America. The company continued to export the high-risk, non-heat-treated product for roughly a year after developing and releasing a safer, heat-treated alternative in the US and Europe.  Thousands of hemophiliacs (i.e. male children) in countries across Asia, Latin America & the rest of the world contracted HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C as a direct result of these products.  AIDS was a death sentence at this time.  TL;DR - Bayer infected thousands of children with a progressive, fatal disease with no cure rather than lose a few dollars.  Mass murder on a global scale.

The BP Oil Spill:  The 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, which released 134 million gallons of crude oil, was one of the largest environmental disasters in world history.  According to Wikipedia, Marsh vegetation was reduced along 350 to 720 miles of shoreline, while between 4 and 8.3 billion harvestable oysters were lost.  Between 51,000 and 84,000 birds, 56,000 to 166,000 juvenile sea turtles, and an estimated 2 to 5 trillion newly hatched fish were killed, alongside up to a 51% decline in the Barataria Bay dolphin population.  Rare deep-sea corals and red crab communities were affected across roughly 400 to 700 square miles near the wellhead, and recreational losses from reduced boating, fishing, and beachgoing were estimated at $527 million to $859 million.  Again, more death and disease as well as economic and environmental devastation inflicted on unwilling participants in the name of profits.

The Monsanto Agent Orange scandal:  Monsanto, along with companies like Dow Chemical, was one of nine government contractors that manufactured the toxic herbicide Agent Orange for the U.S. military during the Vietnam War between 1965 and 1969. The chemical was heavily contaminated with dioxin (TCDD), causing devastating long-term health and environmental consequences for both native Vietnamese people & returning U.S. troops.  Historical records have shown that internal Monsanto officials knew about the extreme toxicity of the dioxin contaminant in Agent Orange as early as 1962.  In 1984, Monsanto and other manufacturers agreed to a $180 million out-of-court settlement for U.S. veterans exposed to the chemical. However, subsequent lawsuits filed by Vietnamese victims against the manufacturers were consistently dismissed by U.S. courts, which ruled the government held immunity for wartime actions.  Translation:  Sorry, G00ks.  We actually meant to inflict generations of birth defects, cancer and metabolic disease on you so you get nothing.  Ya dirty commies.

The 2018 PG&E Campfire:  Erupting on November 8, 2018, in Butte County, this was the largest wildfire in California history.  It was sparked by faulty Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) transmission lines & worsened by high winds, which drove the blaze into the communities of Paradise and Concow, resulting in 85 fatalities and destroying over 18,000 structures.  The catastrophic wildfire blazed for 17 days, ultimately burning 153,336 acres and causing an estimated $16.5 billion in damages.  So all that hubbub about whether this was a result of climate change or California not cleaning up their leaves was a distraction--it was actually caused by corporate greed & negligence.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These are just a handful of examples; there are many others.  Each of these crimes was a top-down decision made by an actual human or group of humans with full knowledge of what they were doing, and there's documentation to prove it.  Yet not a single CEO or other person in a leadership position spent a single day in jail for these crimes, nor were the companies shut down after the fact.  At worst, corporations and their leaders are usually subject to petty civil suits, even when the crime is an obvious criminal offense. They "settle out of court for an undisclosed amount" with the stipulation that the victims can never speak on the issue in public again and that's that.  A chilling effect on our so-called freedom of speech when it's perhaps most important to speak out.




Corporate Death Penalty

A question was raised recently about whether industries that kill more people than they employ annually, such as the tobacco and coal industries, should have a "corporate death penalty".  It went mostly unnoticed.  What would this even look like?  Why should there be a separate death penalty for corporate leaders and the rest of us?  The two-tiered justice system has been a massive failure already--just take money out of the current legal system and treat everybody the same.  That's all we want.  

Get rid of for-profit bail bondsmen, make quality legal representation available to all, do away with pre-trial detention for everyone except violent offenders and those proven to be a flight risk & quit cutting "deals" with rapists, child abusers, murderers & other violent fucks.  No negotiating with terrorists, goddammit.  Plea deals encourage false confessions while allowing horrible monsters to serve unjustly short sentences.  Enact truth-in-sentencing laws in all 50 states and stop locking up petty non-violent offenders like drug users/dealers, small time thieves  and sex workers who actually need treatment, not incarceration.  Focus on actually reforming people while they're locked up instead of making them perform slave labor for the state and corporations.  And do away with the prison informant testimony BS which is about as reliable as a Scientology e-meter.

Yeah right, like that'll fucking happen.  Prison is a for-profit racket just like everything else in this hellhole nation.  Another source of slave labor, nothing more.  🇺🇲💰🫱🏽‍🫲🏻

The U.S. is willing to not only tolerate but protect any industry that makes some fat cat in suit rich as long as he's willing to play along with the lobbying, ass-licking Capitol Hill Olympics.  Who cares if the only thing they sell is death?  That's capitalism, babay!  Employ literal children in your slaughterhouses illegally by the hundreds, some of whom lose limbs or die on the job after being hired with fake/stolen IDs?  Punishment:  Pay a fee equal to a few dollars to the average American and keep right on going.  Do not lose your business license, do not go to jail, do not get put on trial or sit in prison even one motherfucking day.  But get caught with a crack rock and $50 in your pocket and it's off to prison for drug distribution, even if you've never sold drugs a day in your life.  This is the state of corruption in the "greatest nation on Earth" and our media is making sure we hear as little about it as possible so we don't 🔥 it all to the ground.  (We're saving that for the 🤖📈 centers.  I kid.  They'll be protected by killer robot dogs so good luck).

So yeah, in conclusion that's my #1 issue with the death penalty: who it's NOT killing.  The things we view as violent vs. normal in this society are incredibly twisted.  Shoot one guy in a suit dead in the street?  That's violence!  Sit in an office killing thousands of people with "delay, deny, defend" tactics via a service they've already paid for (that people in other developed nations don't even have to pay for) as they die of horrific time-sensitive diseases?  Not violence! 

When people like Trump say they "love the uneducated," this is exactly what they mean.  They love complacent, ignorant people who blindly swallow the narratives fed to them by the idiot tube because they're easier to control.  📺

[Cannabis Review] - Elevated Hemp Co: Pineapple Express THCa (3.5 grams)

 As promised, here's Part 2 of my 2-Part THCa flower review.

This one's from Elevated Hemp Co. and it's a tad higher-shelf than the other, at least technically.  I ordered it on a Friday and received it the following Monday.  The strain is Pineapple Express and I got 3.5 grams of it for $39.98 with shipping included.  I thought I HAD tried this strain but turns out that was Golden Goat.  Or Cookie Wreck, which shares the Trainwreck lineage with PE.  I don't remember; I've smoked since then.  Here's the photo shown on the website:

Pineapple Express from Elevated Hemp Co.






Packaging was stealthy enough--no smell from the outside.  But that all changed when I tore into it.  Holy pineapple! 🍍 It came in a tightly (and I do mean tightly) sealed plastic jar with a Boveda pack, some Elevated Hemp Co. merch and a pack of free natural leaf rolling papers... nice touch!!

The smell was definitely on brand--pure pineapple with a hint of spice.  Buds are tightly packed, well-groomed & covered in trichomes.  I do think they could've skipped the Boveda pack though, as the weed clearly was still damp & in need of a cure.  Into the cure jar it goes.  





As broken up as I could get it w/out a grinder...

At the time of this writing, this strain had only 2 reviews but they were both 5 of 5 stars.  I'm about to see for myself if it lives up to the Pineapple Express hype.  The rolling papers are made out of chamomile and smell like a blunt wrap, but they're nicotine-free.  Very nice.  And glad they included them because the bong my mother got me is missing the bowl.  Bummer.  

Pineapple Express THCa flower

I roll the poorly dried material into a natural leaf paper and seal it to the best of my ability.  I decide to light up during my bath, which has become my favorite way to smoke this summer.  So relaxing.  Despite the dampness of the buds, it hits super smooth in these tasty wraps and tastes soft & slightly floral.  The effects are definitely in the expected range, producing an uplifting cerebral high after only a few puffs.  The initial high mellows out into a happy, chill effect after about 20 minutes, leaving me with an overall positive mood...  much better than when I woke up.  Music sounds great and I'm still getting shit done in terms of chores--thus, no heavy stone or sedation.  Excellent daytime/morning strain.  Despite the questionable dry/cure, it burns just fine when rolled up.    

Biggest bud in the batch.

My biggest concern with THCa weed was that it would be too dry and dusty, but this was just the opposite.  It's clear Elevated Hemp Co. takes their business very seriously, as evidenced by the extra freebies, fast shipping and careful packaging.  The only drawback of this order was the lack of proper dry/cure, though that's a fixable problem.  The quality is top-tier and I'd definitely order this strain again.  For that reason, my final review score will be as follows:

Price:  4.7 of 5 stars
Packaging/Stealth:  4.8 of 5 stars
Shipping Time:  4.9 of 5 stars
Effects:  4.9 of 5 stars
Aroma:  4.9 of 5 stars
Overall:  4.8 of 5 stars
