We had a local place near me selling red "make weed gas again" hats. I've been in one time since and it has been completely dead during normally heavy traffic times.

Like these idiots don't know or even cared what they voted for other than "I'm a dude, I can't vote for a woman"

No way would I encourage anyone from that shitty state to move to my state. Stay there and deal with the mess you made.

I'm surprised you don't have idiots replying to you while locked in a loop of saying "But Austin is libral though!" over and over.

I’ve got some mates who live in MN and you’re limited to 10mg edibles and drinkables, no regular Delta 9 bud, and weak solvent vape pens (no resin or rosin)

Their shitty republican neighbor state has real bud and more than 10mg consumables…

MN is almost there re:pot, but not quite!

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 1 points 23 minutes ago

In AZ it's a 5g limit for concentrates, and some stupid high number like 2oz for bud. That's only a per-purchase limit, however, so you can drop your stuff off in your car, then check in again and buy some more.

The problem is that there is a limit on the number of dispos we can have in the state, and it costs something like a non-refundable $1M fee for an application, so a handful of billionaires control the entire industry and keep prices artificially high. Concentrates are still around $20/g (still cheaper than NY, though). But buds are so abundant that they often give them away for free, which is nice. Problem is that my tolerance is wrecked so I usually just pass it down to a coworker because flower does nothing for me anymore.

It's a good problem to have.

MN is a state where businesses couldn't sell alcohol on Sundays only until a couple of years ago. We're weird about very specific things.

[–] Rakonat@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I live near a dispensary and they sell a lot more than that, I think it's only hemp that's restricted. Edibles and stuff you can buy the pound of you can swallow the taxes.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 35 minutes ago (1 children)

My mate has to go to WI to get 20mg+. No shot of getting at Minnesota and it fucking sucks that it takes all of her break to go get it

[–] Rakonat@lemmy.world 1 points 9 minutes ago

Not sure what to tell you, live near the IA border and people to south to get cheep cigarettes and people come north to get weed products. Only complaints people have is the half hour drive of corn fields.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That's just the hemp stuff. They just passed legal weed a couple of years ago and are still setting up the market but we should have dispensaries open this year.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 36 minutes ago

As of now my maye is pissed to have to go to Wisconsin to get real bud or real edibles.

[–] TheRealKuni@midwest.social 28 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Come to Michigan. Help us go from a swing state to a solid blue, and enjoy some of the cheapest high quality legal weed you can find.

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

Michigan dispensaries are the shit!

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 hours ago

I was down in the US for a festival and made some Michigan friends who had the best dabs I’ve ever tried in my life.

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

They made a shit show out of the licencing. First they sold permits, but then decided they were going to favor minorities in the licencing process. Royalty pissing off people who had already paid the huge fee. The new scheme got struck down in the courts. Now nobody knows what's happening with it. Except the tribes, who are the only people able to commercially grow at the moment. Total shit show, a Minnesota classic.

But you can grow your own.

Playing games with people's freedom. The freedom the people voted for.

And these are the so called "good guys?" Get fucked democrats, you find a way to fuck people over even when they vote to stop the fucking.

Ofc it's an MLtoid loser saying this shit. Piss off.

[–] Texas_Hangover@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 hours ago

That would really piss me off. I hate having reasons to go to Oklahoma.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 115 points 8 hours ago (4 children)

it's not about the weed, it's about making more excuses to detain/arrest/murder brown people

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 4 points 2 hours ago

to be exact, to fill up those 70+ for profit prisons in texas.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 21 points 6 hours ago (5 children)

Ding

Not a full ding ding ding, but a bit of ding

It's definitely about the brown people, but it's also about religious control over people. Soon buggery will be prohibited for some bullshit reason, divorce will be outlawed again so that Texas finally finally can get back to its racist roots of the 1800's. All we need then is some good ol' slavery to finish it all off

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Buggery is anal penetration of an animal.

[–] ragebutt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 5 hours ago

Sodomy/buggery is technically still illegal in Texas

It’s unenforceable because the Supreme Court overturned the states ability to enforce the law but they’ve still never removed the laws. The last attempt was in 2023 and failed. They have arguably fought to protect the laws on the books for a time like now, when they could challenge and overturn the 2003 decision made in Lawrence v Texas and suddenly reenact all of those laws at once without having to re establish a legal framework once a sympathetic supreme court opens the floodgates for homophobia

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago

May I introduce you to the Texas Prison System? They clean our highways, do hard labor, work for our universities doing landscaping,

Legalized weed makes everything safer, crime goes down, people are dealing with addiction less, drinking even goes down, all of these things are terrible for the police

As a Canadian, I can't believe how sad the US has become, and they're regressing in freefall mode.

You ain't seen nothing yet!

Yeah, you're triggered now, you idiot. I'm so free!

Man, when even weed money can't move past your draconian and shitty religious doctrine. Conservatives are a plague on society's progress.
