For decades, I told people that the three biggest influences on me were the Catholic Church, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Monty Python, in equal measure. Now Pope Francis is trashing the Church and Amazon’s putting Tolkien through the woodchipper. At least Python reruns are safe for the moment. But there was another dark star whose gravitational power influenced my orbit. You’ve probably already guessed it: The Addams Family. Not the original cartoons or the movies, but the early 1960s TV series.

Has anyone you know learned to swallow again after over a year without eating?” I asked. My words still sounded thick and unwieldy in my mouth in those first months of relearning to talk. The woman across the table from me fiddled with her equipment. “Let’s try that applesauce again, hmm?”She wasn’t getting off the hook that easily. Undeterred, I tried again. “Am I ever going to eat?”No answer. My speech therapist rose from her seat to adjust one of the dozen electrodes stuck to my neck.

In the summer of 2024, the New York Times published the 100 Best Books of the 21st Century according to the "book professionals." As a seemingly educated individual with a life-long passion for reading (flashlights hidden under the mattress, pillowcase full of books, punished for not going to sleep kind of fervor), I was ashamed at the sheer number of books I had not only not read, but had never seen before.

When I was 26, out of the blue, I suffered a massive brain stem stroke caused by an arteriovenous malformation, or AVM, a rare congenital tangle of blood vessels of which I had no warning or symptoms. The malformation surrounded my brainstem and filled my cerebellum, over half of which would be removed in a life-saving brain surgery that took place in the hours following my stroke. What’s more, my AVM contained four aneurysms and was the largest the UCLA neurosurgeon on call had ever seen.

Lauren Yoshiko has always been on the cutting edge of Cannabis journalism. When her home state of Oregon legalized adult use in 2014, she wrote some of the very first articles about the new recreational industry. Even before that, she was publishing strain reviews in Willamette Week, Portland’s Pulitzer Prize-winning alt-weekly under the pseudonym “Mary Romano” (for fear of losing her day job, ironically).

It wasn’t until after he graduated in 2009 and was apprenticing for internationally renowned artist Zach Puchowitz that he began working with boro and making pipes.
