One day I'll be a real boy. I can't wait for me to be like "How do you do fellow marijuanas people?" Arizona is a medical state too and that's where I'll probably end up. My buddy who retired last year got his card.

In a couple years, if the Dems win the Presidency and Senate, weed will be legal federally. I guess states could still make it illegal, but that would be stupid.

Of course there are no verified "serious risks" accounted for in the article.

(Frankly, old age is a lot more appealing with weed being legal. I'll happily see out my days with bong in hand.)

My mother, who would've beat my ass if I smoked pot when I was a kid, is using some creams and pills with CBD and I believe some stuff with THC now that she's old and everything hurts.

It's annoying, but I'd rather my mom not be in pain than my being petty about it. At the very least she "gets it" now and would be totally cool if I got to do it. So there's that.

Before my step-mother passed after her third bout with cancer in 2013, my dad cooked down a pound of weed to make CBD oil. Knowing my dad's opinion of marijuana, I find this hilarious.

I leave my vape upstairs when my mom is visiting and anyone paying attention could probably figure out how frustrated I am with how many excuses I make to go upstairs. I’ve had to make a lot of trips today.

Dispensaries here are going to a reservation system. You make your order online and then you get a text with a time to come pick up your order. Honestly wish they had this before.

Do they normally not have online ordering? That's how I've done it recently in Colorado.

They do and it's pretty convenient but you still have to hang out in the crowded dispensary to pick it up (the apps vary in how easy they are to use as well).

Yeah, me too. If I come down with the rona, it'll be because I went to the new dispensary just across the border in Wendover last weekend.

That was a battle in a half to be able to open that one. You probably saw some of the stories. Rural Nevadans are weird.

Getting ready to pay full price for the first time since rec sales started for a delivery order but don’t want to take any chances despite my stash. (A total 1 percent type move but fuck it. Weed is more essential than food.)

$200 (w/o tip) for two vape cartridges, an eighth and some edibles. Yikes. Was getting spoiled by all of the deals pre-COVID 19

I reassured a woman in a parking lot today that I did NOT have COVID-19 and I was only coughing because of how large of a vape hit I’d done before getting out of the car.

Even with having to shift to delivery the weed stores here are doing 2 for 1 deals on almost everything for 4/20 with free delivery. God bless America.

You guys have any recommendations on what kind of pen to get? My wife gets paranoid if I smoke inside and think I may get a pen so I don't have to venture upstairs if I want to pound my thoughts into submission.

Only one I’ve ever bought online was this one which has done well for me.

I have an AiroPro battery too for AiroPro cartridges (don’t bother).

The DartPod battery is good if you have access to buy Dart pods easily. I like the Dart pods because you just inhale to activate so you don’t have to worry about button getting pressed accidentally when carrying/sitting, etc like the 510-threaded vapes. The quality of the oil is good too.

Most of the shops here run regular deals to give away batteries with buying two carts which is how I’ve picked up most of mine.

(That said the 30 percent off deal on 4/20 from that link I posted is not bad. That’s certainly the best 510-thread vape I own.)

Delivery just came. I almost unknowingly went over the daily limit in Nevada which I realized when the weed store sent out another group text after my order, but I came in just under (3.3 grams of THC, limit for oil/edibles is 3.5 grams or 1 oz. of flower)

ETA: I just bought one of the pens BFJ recommended because I definitely trust him when it comes to weed. Both of my 510-thread batteries are starting to get a little wonky (won't hold a charge as long, diminished intake sometimes), so took advantage of the 42 percent off at that site he recommended.

Awww. I’m honored.

Are those limits you mentioned for one delivery or for the month?

Wow. What’s the limit on flower for a month? In MD it’s 4 oz/month which is amazing to me.

Honestly, not sure. I had to look it up. Looks like it 2.5 ounces every 14 days, so basically 5 ounces a month.
