Emojis are modern day hieroglyphics. They’ve become an entirely separate way to communicate our emotions on top of language. But, where the hell do they come from — and why don’t weed emojis exist?
Cannabis-specific emojis have yet to become a reality. But that’s about to change real soon. Get ready to fire up a fatty and send off a celebratory partying face emoji. Unicode, the non-profit behind the engaging emoticons, just revealed its official roster of 117 new emojis for 2020, and it includes a trio of images that are meant to convey weed-themed concepts.
Although technically titled face exhaling, face in clouds, and face with spiral eyes, the fresh images can be used to clearly indicate weed-related activities. In fact, when arranged in that order, the new emojis wordlessly create a sequence depicting a first hit of weed, the sweet glory of smoke setting in, and that final elation of experiencing reality through reefer-enlightened peepers. Anybody else’s mind blown?
In addition, the new leafy, green potted plant emoji will no doubt now figure into countless marijuana-related messages, as will a bugged-out new image that can quickly communicate the concept of a “roach.” To convey the mystical properties of marijuana, magic wand should come in handy. And, if you want to get biological between bong hits, you’ll be able to text a fresh set of lungs.
Yes, at long last, stoners will be liberated from solely having to rely on that filtered cigarette emoji to convey “Let’s get lit.”
Beyond those (advertently or not) green-themed emojis, other new images also indicate positive aspects of where the world stands on the brink of 2021. These include both a male face and gender neutral face clad in a wedding veil; a transgender symbol; and a transgender flag. With more inclusive holiday texting in mind, Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus will now be joined by Mx. Claus.
Some classic post-cannabis munchie favorites also made the lineup, including tamales, bubble tea (also known as Boba!), and fondue.
The new emojis will be released to iPhone, Android, and other smartphone and computing platforms before the end of the year. They’re all pure fire and, for that, we’re so grateful we can’t wait to puff with one hand, text with the other, and post the just-revealed smiling face with a tear soon.
Stress Vs. Burnout: What’s The Difference?
Stress and burnout are terms that are used interchangeably, especially when discussing work. Here are some key differences between the two emotional states.

What started in 2015 with the everyday smoker in mind, Daily High Club has expanded to offer even more than value and convenience to its subscribers.
The brainchild of Harrison Baum, Daily High Club (then Dollar High Club) launched their monthly subscription program to deliver basic supplies like rolling papers and filter tips. Five years later, they now offer membership tiers that feature one of a kind glass pieces, smoking supplies, and an inclusive community of regular smokers.
Here, we break down the details of how the subscription boxes work, what’s included, and why so many people have become Daily High Club members.
There are three levels of membership ranging from $1—$30 per month, offering ultimate accessibility for anyone who wants in. A la carte items can be purchased directly from the website without a subscription, though limited specialty items, like cool one-of-a-kind bongs, tend to sell out quickly. All packages are shipped discreetly for total privacy.
The sourcing and designing of the boxes is a major factor of why Daily High Club subscription boxes are so special. Every detail is covered, even down to the papers and bee wick included in the All Natural tier.
Celebrity collaborations featuring the likes of Tommy Chong are another key element. At the El Primo level, subscribers have access to bongs designed with B-Real of Cypress Hill and Supreme, and even a Pickle Rick carb cap. They also feature artistically crafted glass pieces, like the dank dragon pipe and under the sea bong. These glass pieces included in the El Primo tier, created with collaborating celebrities and artists, are truly one-of-a-kind.
Daily High ClubRegardless of which subscription you choose, every product is sourced, keeping quality and social impact in mind and making it easy for subscribers to feel good about what their money is supporting within the cannabis community.
The community that Daily High Club creates is intentionally crafted to be inclusive. Even the look of their website is a conscious choice. Liz Whiting, head of marketing for DHC, explains, “We are designing our website to retain an old school feel that focuses on our community while also including forward-looking design as opposed to more faceless, corporate-learning websites…we want to be inclusive of everyone from the stoner bro to the mainstream to someone who just wants a nice glass piece … whatever era you are from and associate with weed, we want you to feel welcome.”
Creating spaces and events, albeit virtually for now, is another initiative to creating the larger Daily High Club community. From instagram giveaways and interactive labels to virtual smoke sessions, these fun events and features normalize smoking weed.
Equally important and commendable is their outreach geared toward social equity in the cannabis space. Their dank tank pipe is a collaboration with Mission Green which offers resources to people affected by outdated drug laws — $10 from every sale of that pipe goes directly to their efforts.
Daily High ClubBeyond the box, there are constant efforts to bring the company values of education, fun, comedy and community to the forefront.
In today’s world, where there’s a subscription box for everything from tailored clothes to seasonal vegan meal kits, this weed-centric membership is in good company. Regardless of the level, a monthly smoking box is a fun gift for yourself or the smokers in your life.
Aside from never running out of rolling papers, the higher tiers offer opportunities to try new products and accessories, and of course, receive one-of-a-kind glass pieces.
Like any good subscription box, the main appeal is value and convenience — each tier will keep daily smokers supplied with high-quality essentials with no hassle, and for a great price.

Previous generations of stoners came of age rolling joints on all kinds of haphazard surfaces—coffee tables, vinyl album covers, and classroom desktops when the teacher wasn’t looking.
But we live in the “green age,” and rolling joints is an entirely different experience now. In fact, the whole accessory game in 2020 makes smoking weed chic— and simple. While V Syndicate continues to revolutionize the cannabis accessory realm with grinders, storage containers, and more, the company has also notably elevated the glass rolling tray game.
We love rolling our weed on glass surfaces, which we recognize is a personal preference. But, there’s a distinct functional elegance about glass that we’re drawn to. Not only is it easier to clean, but using glass in the joint rolling process adds an extra level of sophistication to the entire process.
Of course, glass also comes with its own drawbacks. For instance, glass breaks easily. Of all people, we know from experience—few things sting like the buzzkill of breaking your bong or a glass of liquid while you’re stoned. But, no such danger exists with V Syndicate glass rolling trays. They are made out of tempered and shatter-resistant glass. So, they’re designed to hold up on impact.
And we’ve tested it! In a stoned haze we knocked our T=HC2 Einstein tray off our couch last week, and it hit the floor—hard. But, to our surprise, it landed and sustained no damage. We learn by doing here at MERRY JANE.
The strength and durability of V Syndicate’s glass rolling trays make them safe to pack up and carry around with you as portable rolling stations. They come in an array of sizes, too, to fit any lifestyle.
V Syndicate’s small glass rolling trays are 6.5 inches by 5 inches—incredibly easy to transport anywhere. The medium sized trays are actually pretty large: They’re 10 inches by 6.25 inches. Whatever you’re rolling, V Syndicate’s glass trays are there to accommodate your needs, from mini-blunts to finger-sized bombers.
The problem with glass rolling trays is that they’re typically expensive as hell. Why would you spend money on an expensive rolling tray when you can use that money for weed—and food—you know? Thankfully, V Syndicate glass rolling trays are insanely affordable. The small ones cost $19.99, while the medium editions go for just $25.
V Syndicate is also the pioneer of printing full color on their glass trays. Further, V Syndicate’s lush, color-drenched, and psychedelically detailed graphic designs set a new standard of visual excellence in the smoking accessory industry.
The Einstein tray we mentioned earlier is just one in a series of V Syndicate’s homages to the master of consciousness expansion. The company also offers Einstein Black Hole rolling trays and Einstein Higher Education trays, too.
V Syndicate also salutes to other revolutionary mind icons including: Nikola Tesla, Vincent Van Gogh, and Salvador Dali.
While you can always buy V Syndicate’s products for individual use, the company also sells in bulk to smoke shops — and they offer every collection for wholesale. That means your shop can be filled with lions, tigers, and buds in no time. If you want to take it a step further, V Syndicate can even customize and create private label glass rolling trays specifically for your brand.
V Syndicate also properly honors modern marijuana favorites Rick and Morty with an array of glass rolling trays. We particularly enjoy crafting smokables atop the Rick and Morty variations Dirty Ridin’ and, of course, Pickle Rick.
Other V Syndicate glass rolling trays feature Hamsa imagery (available in blue, green, and red) and powerful tributes to weed itself (check out the trays named 420, Buds, Cosmic Chronic, and Tricomb Jungle), as well as individual strains such as Blue Dream, Girl Scout Cookie, Green Crack, Pink Lemonade).
However, our personal favorite of V Syndicate’s line of glass rolling trays are the company originals. We love rolling with Cloud 9 Chameleon and Pussy Vinyl, which are also available as glass ashtrays! They’re also just as shatter resistant as their larger counterparts and ensure that every sesh is executed in style.
V Syndicate continues to lead the pack in cutting-edge smoking accessories. And, the fact the edges of these dope glass pieces won’t cut you is only one aspect of what makes these new wave rolling trays absolute must-haves.
