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"

make weed gas again

I can't figure out what this means

"High grade"

[–] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 23 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] mriswith@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

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.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 131 points 11 hours ago (5 children)

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

[–] Zink@programming.dev 3 points 2 hours ago

True, but they DO still like denying fun to themselves and their same-race underlings as well.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 6 points 5 hours ago

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

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

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

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

[–] Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.works 47 points 11 hours ago

this combined with them really pushing to make recording the police a felony

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 8 hours ago (7 children)

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!

[–] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] intheformbelow@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

It's perfectly understandable. A Minnesotan mustn't be too joyful. "It could be worse" are the words for a Minnesotan to live by. Allowing alcohol on Sunday brings it uncomfortably close to "I'm doing great"

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 10 points 5 hours ago (2 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.

[–] djsaskdja@reddthat.com 1 points 13 minutes ago

I’ll believe it when I see it. They’re dragging their feet in a way that seems like malicious compliance.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 hours ago

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

[–] Rakonat@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours 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 3 hours 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 3 hours 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.

[–] TheRealKuni@midwest.social 28 points 8 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 7 hours ago

Michigan dispensaries are the shit!

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 8 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 8 points 7 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.

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

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.

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

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 79 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

You ain't seen nothing yet!

- Reaches into pants and grabs a massive mound of turd and then rubs it all over own face -

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

- Coughs in sepsis -

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

[–] Texas_Hangover@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 hours ago

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