Yea, but there has been a shit ton of progress in those 20 years

Today the majority of states weed is legal in some form. I mean just look at this beautiful green map

"medical" and "decriminalized" are so similar i can't see what it is :((

for what it's worth I'm pretty sure Florida is medical only, considering I live about 10 minutes away from a medical dispensary. I wish I had $500 to waste on a medical card instead of relying upon a stoner friend whos like 4 states away

I hate maps like that

Too many shades of green for us colorblind folk.

Schmoo@slrpnk.net · 3 pts · 346d

This is the least colorblind friendly map I have ever seen. I can't tell half those colors apart.

I'm most states you can buy thca online and it legally shows up in your mailbox.

Isn't THCa "non-intoxicating"? Sounds kinda boring to me if it is lol

priapus@piefed.social · 6 pts · 347d

It is not. Its just a precursor of THC, when smoked or caped its decarbed to THC.

Today@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 346d

Thca is almost all weed that you buy, unless it's old or you're specifically looking for a different profile.

People expect nationwide legalization within five years, given this shitshow of a nationalistic and bastardized-theocratic regime..? Did Joe Rogan write that headline? What a pants-on-head naively stupid prediction.

Don’t get me wrong, I hope it happens too, but you’re kidding yourself if you think the dipshits running things now are going to take it off of schedule 1.

There were people who thought trump was the person to vote for to get legal pot.

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 347d

Yep, and they’re fucking idiots for believing that

The only possible way I see legalization happening is if they are completely out of distractions to use to shift focus away from the fact that Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 347d

That’s actually a fair point

bluecandy1240@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 347d

Are there any study’s or research on if this belief is true or not? I’m genuinely curious because I think I may believe this too and want to know if it’s something I should question
