These cannabis gummies keep selling out in 2024

If you've ever struggled to enjoy cannabis due to the harshness of smoking or vaping, you're not alone. That’s why these new cannabis gummies caught our eye.

Mood is an online dispensary that has invented a “joint within a gummy” that’s extremely potent yet federally-legal. Their gummies are formulated to tap into the human body’s endocannabinoid system.

Although this system was discovered in the 1990’s, farmers and scientists at Mood were among the first to figure out how to tap into it with cannabis gummies. Just 1 of their rapid onset THC gummies can get you feeling right within 5 minutes!

Dear Narativ community,

Did you catch our latest investigation into PAVEL DUROV? We uncovered startling revelations about the enigmatic founder of Telegram. What we've found shatters the carefully crafted image of a tech exile and raises alarming questions about the platform's independence and safety.

5 Key points we uncovered:

1 The Exile Who Came Home

Durov has long portrayed himself as a digital dissident, forced to flee Russia for defying the Kremlin. But our investigation reveals a different story. Between 2015 and 2021, Durov visited Russia over 50 times. Some exile, right?

2. Follow the Money

Dig a little deeper, and the plot thickens. We've uncovered that Telegram's payment system is directly linked to Digital Sky Technologies (DST), a Russian investment firm with deep Kremlin ties, so much for Durov's claims of complete independence.

3. A Criminal's Best Friend?

Telegram's encrypted chats and self-destructing messages have made it a favorite tool for some of the world's most dangerous individuals. From drug cartels to terrorist organizations, Telegram has become a digital safe haven for organized crime.

4. The Russian Social Media Web

But here's where it gets fascinating: Durov's Russian connections aren't unique in the tech world. We've found similar patterns with other social media giants like Facebook and Twitter (now X). It seems Russian oligarch money has its tendrils in all our favorite platforms.

5. The Law Catches Up

On August 28, 2024, the other shoe finally dropped. French authorities arrested Durov on charges including conspiracy in organized crime and child exploitation. This could begin a new era of accountability for tech leaders.

What's Next?

As we approach the 2024 elections, these revelations take on new urgency. The platforms we use daily are not just social networks – they're powerful tools of influence, potentially shaped by foreign interests.

Stay tuned to Narativ as we continue to unravel this web of connections. The digital world you think you know might be more compromised than you ever imagined.

Together, we're pulling back the curtain on The Oligarch Web.

Stay vigilant,
