Let Me Make this Pellucidly Clear

[malaise]

With Smelvis being seriously wounded metaphorically and folks preoccupied with voting in Congress, it appears that many have forgotten the importance of this date 4/20

Light up folks.

As the great Peter Tosh would said -legalize It.

[wendyb-NC]

1. Yes, absolutely, its time

[Bundbuster]

2. I'm all in

with legal bud here in Colorado.

[malaise]

3. Enjoying 😀

[Glamrock]

4. Happy 4/20, Malaise!

Wish I was down there witchoo right about now! Overcast and 47 in Chicagoland!

[spanone]

5. Amen!!!!!!

👍🏼

[ShazamIam]

6. I love the reggae beat, it whispers, relax, smile, enjoy. nt

[nolabear]

7. It's been legal here in WA so long I forget what it's like not to be.

The worst problem we have is that banks can’t get involved so no credit or debit cards. It’s one of the reasons stolen KIAs are driven into pot shops and cash and product is stolen, though I imagine most people take the money home at night. Otherwise though, it’s just not a thing. My favorite shop is woman owned and operated and is a great little business.

9. But the smell and the open usage. I am so over those things.

I voted for legalization (and would again) but I didn't realize that half of Seattle (and the light rail) would stink most of the time or that people would use so openly. If I cracked a beer waiting for a bus, I would be ticketed. The other day I was waiting for a ferry and instead of the smell of the sea and the shore.....the stench of weed.

I can also live without those garish billboards and ragingly ugly storefronts. I suppose that's all small potatoes in the large scheme of things, but when I voted yes for something that basically other people wanted, I would hope they'd reciprocate by being considerate about the smell and open usage.

8. In my heart I am with you

but evil weed is a serious and dangerous thing here. We almost got a tiny law allowing a few very sick people to have it under very strict conditions but they ripped that away at the last minute. We are just short of going back to making airplanes take the drinks away from passengers as they flew over our state so there ya go....the stuff is everywhere and easy to get but it is risky here. The law to search vehicles as we crossed the border back into Kansas did not go over very well thank goodness.

We did finally get CBD, what a battle.

[malaise]

10. Here now that every adult can have three plants I see less plants

than when it was supposedly illegal 😀

[marked50]

11. Some called it a "Spiritual"

[DemocraticPatriot]

12. Light Up

[malaise]

16. Nice

Rec

[SARose]

13. Makin Dan Patrick mad for 2 years

Old hippies here! 🚬 Happy 4/20 everyone from deep in the heart of Texas!

☮️

[surfered]

14. My sympathies are with you, but as for me....

"...No. no, no. no, I don't smoke it no more
I'm tired of waking up on the floor
No, thank you, please, it only makes me sneeze
Then it makes it hard to find the door"

[bahboo]

15. I'll happily join you with an edible....

[canetoad]

17. 420 Was yesterday for me

And most days in the foreseeable future.

[malaise]

19. Ha

Listening to a great playlist on local radio - and laughing at some of them

Gimme di light

I don’t know most of these

[Warpy]

18. Completely legal here in NM

and I gulped down an edible (mango flavor, yum) a couple of minutes ago, didn't want to wait for 4:20, sorry. It'll probably start coming on just about then.

Thanks to the House Republicans who'd had enough of Johnson's game playing and issued some very credible threats to him and their clown colleagues for making this 4/20 even better. Never thought I'd say THAT.

[malaise]

20. Haven't even had a cookie

😀

[Warpy]

40. Dare cookies are on Amazon! Hooray!

I ordered some 3 packs last week, so I had them on hand.

I got baked rather than lightly toasted (it was 4/20, after all) and only managed 3 of the lemon cremes over 4 hours. Those are ultra rich cookies with no artificial lemon, they use real lemon zest and it shows.

I'm so glad I live in a civilized wild west state.

[malaise]

42. LOL

Cracking up with laughter here 😀

[pfitz59]

21. My personal favorite

[malaise]

31. Thanks for posting this

First time I’m hearing this😀

[malthaussen]

22. Sorry, can't read your post through all the smoke. n/t

[malaise]

24. LOL

😂😂

[pfitz59]

23. and this

[H2O Man]

25. I just might!

[malaise]

27. Ha

😀😀

[H2O Man]

28. I've been smoking

hash most of the day. But I'll smoke some herb, too.

Peter Tosh was a powerful man! I think I've told you one of my nieces lives near his daughter in Boston. She & her son visited me yesterday, and she mentioned that Peter's daughter is doing well.

[malaise]

30. Wow - not good news re his daughter

Will have some cookies when we go to view the blooming century palm in Hope Gardens tomorrow😀

[H2O Man]

38. She said that

Peter's daughter is doing well! They are neighbors

[malaise]

39. Damn

How did I see not.

I did wonder because I heard her on radio on the anniversary of his birth April 10.

[pfitz59]

26. a bit more upbeat

[brewens]

29. I just had Styx-Equinox on my stereo for the first time ever. The classic Light Up kicks that one off.

I just found I could get Equinox and Crystal Ball for a great price on one disk. I had those vinyl's back in the day but had not heard either entire album for over 40 years.

I had a few hits and one of my homemade edibles to mark 4/20.

[malaise]

32. Cool - now check out Biden's 4/20:announcement

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100218880473

[Prairie_Seagull]

33. Suddenly this thread is funnier and it was already funny

Like nolabear upthread I am in Wa state where it is legal. Just found some 100% sativa, no hybrid. I laugh as shit that really isn't all that funny. Life is good mon. Happy 420 peeps.

Shit now I have the munchies.

[malaise]

34. Biden's tweet is also delish

😀

[Prairie_Seagull]

35. Oh hell yea, thanks 'high'plainsdem and malaise.

Fingers crossed.

[Earth-shine]

36. At the dispensary today, many people wished others a "Happy 420!"

I realize now I should have f*cked with a few of them and said "That's Merry 420."

Good discounts today. Been waiting for weeks.

In Southern Florida, the price of excellent flower continues to hold or go lower as the potency rises. This is the free market. There are many dispensaries and companies duking it out.

I'm paying half what I was from the same dispensaries compared to two-three years ago. A number of flower products are above 30% THC. (Even if the rated potency is exaggerated, these things are delicious.)

And speaking of delicious, unlike the flower, they keep trying to raise the price of edibles. But today, $10 for a 100mg chocolate bar. I stocked up.

[malaise]

37. Ha

😀😀😀

[lame54]

41. Pato has something to say about that...
