Volutas de humo titilan al encuentro del cinco contra uno: la cabeza se enciende, las manos bajan, la fiebre sube. Son tiempos de encerrarse con uno mismo, de entregarse a la magia de la masturbación. Chorros poquitos, churros gigantes. Eyaculación de a montón, porro del millón.
¿Acaso será una buena idea ver porno fumados? ¿Aumentará el goce? ¿El placer pondrá un foco distinto? ¿Qué pasa por la cabeza y el cuerpo cuando vemos XXX estando re locos?
“Siento que la conexión que uno agarra con su cuerpo, cuando está con todo su sistema cannabinoide activo, hace que todo sea mucho más placentero y mucho más disfrutable”, asegura la actriz XXX y activista cannábica chilena Tía Cogollo.
Suena bien, ¿o no?
Por eso, de la mano (y en compañía) de la Tía Cogollo, El Planteo armó esta guía exclusiva para ver porno fumados.
Tía Cogollo hace porno estando fumada. En realidad, dice, está fumada todo el día pero, aún así, no le recomienda a sus “colegas” crear contenido high si no tienen una relación cercana con la marihuana.
Ahora bien, vamos a lo importante: ¿recomienda ver porno fumado? “Sí, lo recomiendo”, confirma.

Y acá, un nuevo pero: “Sólo a personas que ya tengan una experiencia con la marihuana porque uno le agarra mucho más gusto a las sensaciones físicas, a los sonidos y al placer en general, como que se activa mucho más y se pone mucho más perceptivo”.
A partir de ahí, una revisión del tiempo: pasa más lento. Entonces, se engolosina la percepción, los minutos se hacen más anchos.
Los que más saben recomiendan que, en estos menesteres, se escojan cepas más cercanas a las índicas antes que a las sativas. Aunque puede haber un ideal: las mezclas “siempre son súper ricas”.
Habla la Tía Cogollo: “Recomiendo un mix de 50/50 entre sativa e índica. Eso siempre se disfruta. Quizás algo que no sea tan somnoliento, como para que uno siga activo después de un buen rato y, después, si terminás en un buen orgasmo en tu sesión, vas a quedar súper relajado y disfrutando al máximo”.
Ahora bien, ¿qué ver? ¿Da todo lo mismo? ¿Cuál es el género ideal para una inmersión 420 al cosmos de la chanchada?
“Recomiendo el P.O.V. (point of view) porque lo que uno está viendo se siente mucho más interactivo. Cuando hay una cámara en primera persona se siente como que uno está dentro de la película y eso es mucho más maravilloso cuando uno está volado”, sugiere la experta.

De pronto, hay más géneros que pueden maridar con la marihuana, como el caso del comedy porn, más vinculado con las familias sativas. “Recomendaría el comedy como para disfrutar mientras estás teniendo un orgasmo y te largás a reír”.
¿Y búsquedas más concretas? Bueno, bien vale alguna mención para Keisha Grey, otra para Amarna Miller y un search veloz al tag “weed porn”. Las coordenadas son de Tía Cogollo, así que sólo queda confiar.
Hablemos de cuidados. Sí, obvio: hay que tenerlos, ¿qué se piensan? A ver qué dice la Tía Cogollo… “Hay que tener principal atención a lo que está pasando afuera de tu habitación porque uno se embarca en un contexto súper íntimo donde pierdes el control. Por ejemplo, el control al volumen que tú estás haciendo a los gemidos. Al volumen de los suspiros, también. Entonces tú puedes creer que estás haciendo muy poco ruido y en verdad estás haciendo mucho. Así que la recomendación sería prestarle atención al contexto externo de tu habitación”.
¿Algo más? Y… siempre hay más: una buena opción sería acompañar la sesión manuelística con una playlist bien psicodélica. Y, obviamente, tener todo listo y dispuesto para el post sesión íntima, como algunas cuestiones de limpieza y tener a mano algo rico para comer.
Para el hecho en sí, la sugerencia de la experta es comenzar de forma lenta y sensitivamente e ir poco a poco aumentando la intensidad. “Es bueno partir lento, hacer una sesión larga y placentera y avanzar dentro de tu sesión incrementando la velocidad, pero ir variando entre un ritmo y otro”, detalla Tía Cogollo.
Pero cada cuerpo es un mundo. Y cada mundo, una paja.

El reloj marca su compás, el cuerpo pide salsa. ¿Da igual un horario que el otro? Bueno, al parecer, no. La Tía Cogollo sugiere que el mejor horario para ver porno fumados es a las 23:00hs.
¿¡Por qué!?
Uno puede suponerlo pero mejor si lo explica ella: “Porque no están todos muy despiertos. Hay algunos que están durmiendo. Y si vives solo, no vas a molestar a tus vecinos. Y, después, en el mismo sentido, el horario full AM onda 7:00 de la mañana, justo después de fumarte un porro, también va. Siempre y cuando sea después de una buena caña”.
El porro agarra sintonía fina con el porno porque “puedes completar mejor tus fantasías en solitario”. Predispone a una actitud más placentera, más activa, más sexual, más rica. Y, ahí, el horario juega su parte.
“Si tu cuerpo está relajado, la finalización de tus sesiones serán demasiado placenteras. Y lo peor es que uno se queda con ganas de más. En lo personal, me ha pasado que he estado en procesos de grabación estando volada y uno queda con ganas de más, de continuar y continuar, y la sesión ya acabó”.

“Y si te quedaste con ganas de más, tengan siempre a mano un contacto para llamar en caso de emergencia”, bromea (y no tanto, la verdad) la Tía.
Ya saben qué hacer. A darle mecha, a darle clic, a darle a la pajita.

Chef Maverick is as multi-talented as they come, and the titles of chef, caterer, product developer, Chopped 420 competitor, author, businessperson, brand designer, and more are all just a glimpse of explaining her skillset. From catering small- and large-scale dining events (both with cannabis-infused dishes and non-infused meals) to creating her line of infused sauces and snacks, she’s highly ambitious and strives to craft flavor-packed foods using only the best ingredients.
Maverick is a Los Angeles native who discovered her passion for food at 5 years old and has spent her life cooking for her friends and family. Instead of pursuing a culinary education in college, she attended school in Georgia and Tennessee and earned her bachelor’s degree in computer science and software engineering. During her college education, she also worked at numerous restaurants, from Red Lobster to Applebee’s and IHOP, and would experiment with cooking and recreating menu items from those businesses at home.
“I would go home and recreate certain things that I liked, that worked, or put my little twist on certain things is basically how I developed my culinary skill set,” Maverick explains.
After graduation, she spent nearly five years as a corporate sales rep. Her culinary career took off in 2015 when she moved back to Los Angeles and began building her reputation as a private chef and caterer.
Her introduction to cannabis came a few years later when she was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease and multiple sclerosis, in addition to learning that she was allergic to gluten and soy. Edibles helped her manage the symptoms of her conditions. Still, she found that the selection was limited—the cannabis industry was oversaturated with sweets, but somehow, none of them catered to her new dietary restrictions.
“I realized at the time that edibles were very popular, but a majority of the edibles that were available were mostly gummies, cookies, brownies, you know, things like that,” Maverick says. “I also didn’t see any specific gluten-free, vegan, soy-free options. And because I found out I had allergies to gluten and soy, I couldn’t really eat any of the edibles that were available at the time.”
This prompted her to develop a line of infused sauces, dubbed Mav Sauce, in 2018. At first, she developed cannabis pesto, ketchup, mustard, maple syrup, honey, and BBQ sauces, and her rise in popularity on social media prompted her to expand her sauce lineup to include new flavors including jerk BBQ sauce, Memphis sweet BBQ sauce, vegan chipotle aioli, organic maple syrup and honey, balsamic vinaigrette, sriracha ketchup, and sweet chili sauce.
Her infused sauces became so popular that she wrote a cookbook incorporating them, released in May 2023. Sauced Up! 420 Recipes Featuring Mav Sauce includes 14 recipes that offer creative ways to use her various Mav Sauces, such as adding her infused Memphis sweet BBQ sauce to smoked BBQ jackfruit enchiladas or using infused pesto in a Caprese stuffed mushrooms recipe.
Maverick later developed dietary-friendly infused sweets called Mav Snacks after her savory successes. These include a variety of options from rice cereal-based treats to cookies, brownies, gummies, and more that are gluten-free, soy-free, and some of which are also vegan.
According to Maverick, her fruit juice gummies are some of her bestsellers.
“Certain gummies may have two flavors; some of them have three,” Maverick says. “So it may be pineapple, watermelon, and strawberry or something like that, you know, so people love them for that, and they’re very good.”
Her vegan strawberry lemonade cookies, including a lemon-flavored cookie with strawberry jam in the center and a drizzle of strawberry lemonade icing, are also a bestseller and one of her favorites.
Not only are Maverick’s sauces and snacks packed with flavor, but she also maintains high standards when using quality ingredients.
“The thing about Mav Sauce and Mav Snacks is that they’re exclusively gluten-free, soy-free, and non-GMO. I don’t use crappy ingredients. I use mostly organic ingredients: organic butter, organic this and that, as much as I can. All my herbs are all organic because I feel like cannabis is supposed to be something used to help you feel better,” Maverick says. “But if you’re smoking trash, it’s not going to help you. If you’re ingesting stuff that is trash, it’s just gonna get you high; it’s not going to be helpful. You know? So it’s really important that the ingredients are quality for me, and when I put out a quality product, people can actually benefit from it versus like most companies, especially these edible brands, are probably in it just because it’s profitable.”
Many of Maverick’s long-standing customers are medical patients suffering from a variety of conditions, such as endometriosis, cancer, and Parkinson’s disease. She recounts heartwarming messages that she has received from fans explaining how Mav Sauce and Mav Snacks have helped them manage their symptoms and improved their quality of life.
“I’m just glad that I’m able to help people, you know, through their stuff,” Maverick says. “And that’s really like, for me, the best part of what I do. I really, really love helping people and getting that feedback that what I’m creating, it’s not just gonna get someone high, it’s changing people’s lives.”
Maverick moved to Georgia toward the end of 2023, citing being “over L.A.,” but the decision to swap the West Coast for the east won’t hinder her plans for growth. A new chapter is beginning, and Chef Maverick is cooking up even more ambitious plans for the near future.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration has urged a federal appeals court to deny a doctor’s attempt to administer psilocybin to dying patients under so-called Right to Try legislation, arguing that such laws do not provide for exemptions to the federal Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
Dr. Sunil Aggarwal, co-founder of the Advanced Integrative Medical Science Institute, a psychedelics research and treatment clinic based in Seattle, has sued the DEA several times for authorization to use psilocybin as a treatment for depression and anxiety by terminally ill patients. Aggarwal’s legal actions are based on federal and state Right to Try laws, which permit patients with terminal illnesses to use investigational drugs for therapeutic purposes before they are approved for general use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Psilocybin, the compound primarily responsible for the psychedelic effects of magic mushrooms, has been shown through clinical research to have great potential as a treatment for serious mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder and substance misuse disorders. The compound has been designated as a “breakthrough therapy” by the FDA but remains a Schedule I drug under the CSA, a classification reserved for drugs with no medical value.
The state of Washington approved a Right to Try bill in 2017, the same year former President Donald Trump signed the federal Right to Try Act into law. Aggarwal argues in his legal action that the legislation gives him the right to administer psilocybin to his patients with terminal illnesses.
The DEA, however, has rejected Aggarwal’s attempts to gain the authority to administer psilocybin to his patients. In its rationale for rejecting a 2022 petition seeking such authority, the DEA argued that treating terminally ill patients with psychedelics would be inconsistent with maintaining public health and safety. Aggarwal also claims the DEA wants him to register as a researcher to administer psilocybin, which is not a requirement of the federal Right to Try Act.
Aggarwal appealed the DEA decision to the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal, arguing that it was arbitrary and inconsistent with public health interests and established legal precedent. In February, he argued that the DEA must explain how its decision is consistent with the CSA and its own policies, noting that the agency has issued waivers for the therapeutic use of other Schedule I drugs, including the use of medical cannabis by children.
In a filing to the court last week, the DEA said that the Right to Try Act amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act but does not affect the CSA. The agency also said doctors who wish to administer controlled substances must abide by both statutes.
“The CSA and the FDCA (which the Right to Try Act amends) are separate regulatory schemes with separate requirements and restrictions,” the DEA wrote, as quoted by Green Market Report. “Nothing in the Right to Try Act changes that.”
The DEA also argued that the court should reject Aggarwal’s claims because he has not provided sufficient evidence to support them. The law enforcement agency also said it could not adequately evaluate his plan to administer psilocybin because he did not give enough information to justify the waiver he was requesting.
Shawn Hauser, a partner at the cannabis and psychedelics law firm Vicente LLP, slammed the DEA’s position, saying the agency “continues to overtly misinterpret the law using unlawful delay tactics to deny terminally ill patients access to life-saving medicines that federal law affords them access to.”
“Federal Right to Try laws were designed to allow eligible, terminally ill patients who qualify to use investigational new drugs that have undergone clinical trials (such as psilocybin), even if they are Schedule I substances,” Hauser wrote in an email to High Times.
“The law includes a clear exception to the FDCA’s safety/efficacy requirements that allow the use of unapproved, investigational drugs, such as psilocybin, that have completed successful FDA trials, by terminally ill patients,” she added. “This seems to be another excuse and obstruction by the DEA to deny patients access to a life-saving treatment that studies clearly demonstrate can be used safely as medicine.”

There’s yet another compelling reason to legalize weed. According to new research, states that have legalized cannabis also experience a “moderate relative decrease” in immigrant deportation rates compared to states where the drug is still illicit.
As a study featured in the American Journal of Community Psychology details, immigration raids and deportations create widespread fear and mistrust, which have cascading effects throughout entire communities. As the fear of being targeted grows, people are less likely to engage with local institutions such as churches, schools, health clinics, cultural events, and social services.
And it also finds that kids who experience the sudden, forced deportation of a parent often suffer from a range of psychological issues including anxiety, anger, aggression, and withdrawal. They may also exhibit a heightened sense of fear, trouble eating and sleeping, PTSD, and depression. While these conditions can be treated with cannabis and therapy, the research on legalizing cannabis and deportation indicates that we could get in front of such troubles if we just legalize it, to begin with.
Of course, it’s not just immigrants, although better immigration policy benefits everyone. The study, conducted by researchers from Columbia University, also notes a slight reduction in overall cannabis-related arrests.
The authors of the study stated that recreational cannabis laws (RCLs) could “help to mitigate some of the unintended immigration-related consequences of cannabis prohibition.” They observed that “Arrest trends in both legalization and non-legalization states were relatively similar and generally stable over the period.” They also found that the trends suggested that the overall prevalence of deportations went down between 2009 and 2020.
Here’s a bit more of what they had to say:
“Our results suggest that the RCLs were associated with a moderate relative decrease in deportation levels that was observed relatively consistently across multiple model specifications. Findings also suggested potential relative decreases in immigration arrest levels; however for almost all specifications, associated confidence intervals were wide and included the null. Together these findings support the overall possibility that RCLs may help to mitigate some of the unintended immigration-related consequences of cannabis prohibition.”
About ten percent of U.S. families with children have at least one family member who doesn’t have citizenship, and it’s estimated that nearly six million kids have at least one caregiver without authorization to live in the country, putting them at risk for the aforementioned trauma and related mental health conditions.
The authors of the study didn’t draw definitive conclusions about the apparent link between state-level cannabis legalization and reduced deportations. However, it is noteworthy that all 11 sanctuary states for immigrants (California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, D.C.), which generally discourage reporting immigrants to federal authorities, have also legalized cannabis for adult use.
The research leads to the conclusion that legalization generally results in fewer arrests for cannabis-related offenses, suggesting that fewer immigrants are likely to be implicated in marijuana criminalization from the get-go.
The researchers identified two “countervailing pathways” that they described as “relevant to anticipating the potential immigration implications of RCL adoption,” which are as follows:
“First, RCLs could lead to potential decreases in the overall number of cannabis-related arrests or convictions, and therefore cannabis-related immigration enforcement. A second possibility, however, is that state adoption of RCLs might lead more people who are non-citizens to reasonably but falsely assume that federal immigration status is unaffected by cannabis use permissible under state law—potentially leading to increases in immigration enforcement.”
So basically, simply legalizing marijuana for everyone will naturally lower the number of people who are deported for daring to enjoy weed. However, there is also a chance that if recreational cannabis laws are passed, people who aren’t legal citizens might feel an unfortunately safe, false sense of security.
The study explains that even though some states have legalized cannabis, don’t forget that it’s still illegal under federal law. This means that any cannabis-related offenses, even seemingly minor ones, can have serious repercussions for non-U.S. citizens such as permanent residents, DACA recipients, and those granted asylum. According to federal policy, simply being charged with or admitting to possessing a small amount of cannabis can lead to problems with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), including affecting immigration status or even leading to arrest, detention, or deportation. This is also true for those who work in the cannabis industry, further narrowing the scope of available labor to immigrants.
So while yes, legal weed on a state level could lead to people feeling too comfortable and forgetting that there’s still the federal government to fear, overall, recreational laws seem to make life easier for everyone, as this new research into its implication on immigration shows.
