Friday Edition - October 13, 2025

Good morning, Member

Happy Friday, dear GrayViners! I once heard a saying that goes, “If you want to change the world, start by making your bed”. When I was younger, it felt like such a chore, but now it’s second nature. If I don’t get to it first thing in the morning, the rest of the day feels a bit out of sync. How about you? Do you make your bed right away every morning or let it wait until later? I’m curious to see your answers!

Let’s crack yesterday’s riddle: I hold your money, cards, and key, tucked in your pocket, close to thee. I open and close, yet never speak. Lose me once, and panic peaks! What am I?

The answer is… wallet! Here’s your well-deserved shout-out, Riddle Masters!

Up for another brain stretch? Try to unscramble this: R I O N I G A L

Post your answer here, and you just might see your name in Monday’s winners list! Alright, let’s jump into today’s stories picked just for you: A new Social Security warning, a product recall, and smart ways to save, stay healthy, and enjoy fall.

For years, buying cannabis meant taking a trip to a dispensary, dealing with long lines, limited selection, and inconsistent pricing. But thanks to changing laws and innovative online retailers, buying high-quality THC products is now 100% federally legal—and more convenient than ever.

And when it comes to quality and reliability, Mood is leading the way…

Because they’ve completely flipped the script on cannabis shopping. Instead of memorizing hundreds of confusing strain names – like “Gorilla Glue” and "Purple Monkey Breath" – you simply choose how you want to feel: Creative, Social, Focused, Relaxed, Happy, Aroused, and more.

Each gummy is formulated with the perfect blend of Delta-9 THC and botanicals to deliver the perfect mood.

Want a great night’s sleep? Try the Sleepytime gummies. Need laser focus Mind Magic gummies have you covered. Hotter sex? Try the Sexual Euphoria gummies.

It's cannabis shopping that actually makes sense for “normal” people.
