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”
It means all the stuff they can buy under the farm bill isn’t very strong and they want the real stuff
I assume it means smoking the weed (turning it into gas).
Gas is a slang way to say it’s potent / strong.
Potent / strong (and especially fresh and not properly cured) weed can smell almost like Dow made it in a chemical plant in Jersey.
Diesel is a common descriptor for genetics
Everything you said is right, but I’m genuinely curious about the diesel bit.
What is diesel?
I’d bet the gas slang came out of using “diesel” to describe genetics.
But the smell of the bud is almost “diesel fuel” in aroma with its nasal hit.
I only just got the bit about “skunk” after seeing one as road kill and having my windows down.
Rest in power little weasel homie✊.
If they’re into biodiesel it could be turning hemp into fuel.
Is Tim Walz Canadian?
That’s Tim Horton.
Tim Walz is the governor of Minnesota. (Wikipedia)
it’s not about the weed, it’s about making more excuses to detain/arrest/murder brown people
“You want to know what this [war on drugs] was really all about? The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying?
We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news.
Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”
~ John Ehrlichman, Assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs under President Richard Nixon

It has been all along.
to be exact, to fill up those 70+ for profit prisons in texas.
True, but they DO still like denying fun to themselves and their same-race underlings as well.
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
Buggery is anal penetration of an animal.
Buggery
The criminal offense of anal or oral copulation by penetration of the male organ into the anus or mouth of another person of either sex OR copulation between members of either sex with an animal. (Emphasis mine)
Religious piousness is the excuse, it’s the cover story. You don’t really think those mega church pastors believe what they say and then fly around in golden jets do you? It’s about the power they have over people.
EDIT: after reading you comment more carefully, yes we agree
yep, that’s why they’re trying to swap the meanings of “education” and “indoctrination”-- accuse schools of “liberal indoctrination” and take over all the boards so they can force their own “education” which is literally the textbook definition of indoctrination
from the party of “god gave us free will!!!” which is also the party of “you will believe in jesus or else”
They have to be killed
May I introduce you to the Texas Prison System? They clean our highways, do hard labor, work for our universities doing landscaping,
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
this combined with them really pushing to make recording the police a felony
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.
That’s Texas, it’s different.
Texas is the beta test for the rest of America.
One star, because it wouldn’t let us put zero.
Just change hotel to state
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 -
You forgot to mention something about “woke” and “radical” something or other.
New HHS guidance recommends against the term “sepsis”. We’re goin full humors now, boiiiiiii
May as well get used to the cold weather by moving north since we will have to run to Canada next.

Easier to secede to Canada if you share a border
I moved to Minnesota from San Diego 5 years ago and it feels like a better decision every single day
Aiming my way there from Ohio within the next year, any recommendations?
Get to know other transplants to Minnesota ahead of time or find a way to meet some once you move. Native Minnesotans are notoriously tough to befriend; many Minnesotans have friend groups that go back to primary school and can be kind of standoffish at first.
Just remember that Minnesota Nice is not a complement.
It’s not but it’s not really an insult either unless your a dick who’s misusing the term.
Minnesota nice is a cultural stereotype applied to the behavior of people from the U.S. state of Minnesota, implying residents are unusually courteous, reserved, and mild-mannered compared to people from other states. The phrase also implies polite friendliness, an aversion to open confrontation, a tendency toward understatement, a disinclination to make a direct fuss or stand out, apparent emotional restraint, and self-deprecation.
Having spent a number of decades in Minnesota I’d say Wikipedia pretty accurately captures Minnesota Nice.
This got reported. I think you’re walking the line of rule 5, but you haven’t crossed it. Let’s enjoy the weekend everyone.
This got reported. I think you’re walking the line of rule 5, but you haven’t crossed it.
😮 Oh no.
Why don’t you take a day to have fun.
If Minnesota Nice was a compliment it would just be called nice. People confuse polite with nice. The best way to describe it is “nice to your face”.
It’s a special kind of nice.
Here I thought a good way to describe it was as a cultural stereotype applied to the behavior of people from the U.S. state of Minnesota, implying residents are unusually courteous, reserved, and mild-mannered compared to people from other states. The phrase also implies polite friendliness, an aversion to open confrontation, a tendency toward understatement, a disinclination to make a direct fuss or stand out, apparent emotional restraint, and self-deprecation.
Minnesota Nice does not mean “nice to your face” but you seem like one of those people who wants to use it as an insult instead.
Your invalid assumption is that those actions make someone nice. It makes them polite. If you live here you’ve surely encountered the case where someone suggests getting together outside of the shared context you are currently in (like work). You know damn well that the correct answer is non committal. “yes we should do that soon”. Under no circumstances was this a real invitation and you do not start suggesting dates.
Sounds just like Ohio to me.
Maybe, I haven’t spent enough time in Ohio to judge but being from Minnesota that is the #1 thing I hear from transplants. There’s even been articles written about it.
Nah, we don’t have friends groups that go back to primary school
Wait does that include middle school and highschool too?
And we aren’t standoffish! Just don’t face us directly if talking, that’s rude you ain’t a cop. And keep your opinions uncommitted. It’s rude to express anything that can give the impression you have a strong opinion or feeling about something. Why are you guys talking so much anyway, there’s perfectly good hotdish goin to waste.
Could maybe get used to that.
The cities are cool, and like any major metropolitan area, every neighborhood has its own vibe. Duluth is a REALLY cool city, and totally worth a look. But I ended up in this small, off the freeway, city called Northfield. It’s really nice. There are plenty of jobs, lots of services, the rent is okay, and there are two liberal arts colleges here, which means that this tends to be a really progressive area
Does Northfield still smell like cookies every once in a while?
Yes it does :)
Northfield is progressive or the whole area? I would think you go 5 minutes in any direction and that sentiment would change.
Northfield is progressive. All around are farms. But it’s not all that far from the cities, either.
I’m familiar with Northfield but I’m also familiar with Randolph, Elko/New Market, Farmington and those areas don’t scream progressive to me which is why I was curious.
No, they’re not. They’re all a lot more rural. I don’t think many people consider Northfield because it’s out of the way and off the freeway (and surrounded by nothing), which is one of the reasons I think it is the way it is hahaha
There are plenty of MAGAS around. My old suburban district used to vote republican by a decent margin. That’s changed and we’ve elected Democrat to us house for a few cycles. But that democrat was Dean Philips. Northfield is about about 30 minutes out of the metro and is going to be very maga around it.
Come fly into the twin cities and take a look around. There’s tons of different neighborhoods and you can drive to the major other cities in a day. Duluth is great and got a whole different biome from the Twin Cities. You can go to Rochester which is growing fast and has the Mayo Clinic if you need or want to work medical care. I love stillwater since it’s a small town close to the twin cities but not really a suburb. You can’t really go wrong.
Also to note Minnesota has three different ecological biomes in it. Prairies, coniferous forest and deciduous forests. So you can pick your landscape and see others nearby
You can go to Rochester which is growing fast and has the Mayo Clinic
Does it also have the Miracle Whip Faith Healing Center?
I’m sure you can find one nearby
Lol
That’s the sort of thing someone might pay a stupid amount of money to make a sandwich shop nearby and name it that
That’s a storming good idea.
I love to see Rosharan curses in the wild ❤️
I’m trying to adopt it, I think it works so well and can potentially clean up my speech a bit. 😅
That would really piss me off. I hate having reasons to go to Oklahoma.
If he’d been the nominee they’d have had a much better chance of stopping Trump and fascism.
Alas, they don’t want to stop Trump or fascism.
Fuck, it’s so great to have you here as the only person in the planet to be able to timetravel and have that amazing 20/20 vision. You should use this powers for good and go back in time and kill Hitler or whatever.
Respectfully, your behavior is what’s killing the Democratic Party. Do you think this kind of tone and engagement attracts voters?
If only I had the technology. I would make an Arya Stark List.
Given the Democrats’ long history of picking the worst possible candidate at any given time, I’m genuinely confused as to how Harris landed on Waltz instead of Shapiro.
Alas, they don’t want to stop Trump or fascism.
Republicans move the country to the right. Democrats stop the county from rebounding left. A beautiful political ratchet that’s been marching us further and further towards full blown fascism since the Nixon Era.
I was legit shocked to learn that Walz championed free school lunches as governor.
It’s the kind of no-duh low hanging fruit of traditional liberal populism that Biden Era Democrats can’t run away from fast enough.
Texas is Gilead
I feel so bad for normal decent Texans. Their politicians are among the worst in the world. I can’t think of a single Texas Republican who doesn’t deserve the death penalty.
Texas has been GOP governed for almost thirty years.
The town of Uvalde overwhelmingly voted Republican immediately following their tragedy.
This is what they want. And what they’re getting.
The situation tells us that there are very few decent Texans.
Even the most vile Southerners are polite in the company of others.
The situation tells us that there are very few decent Texans.
The state is comically gerrymandered and rigorously disenchrancised. We have majority black counties where a single voting location will have a seven hour queue, sky high incarceration rates intended to disenfranchise huge swaths of the public, and some of the most reactionary public TV and radio combined with the most poorly funded and badly administered education.
This is a controlled population. People will talk shit about Russia and North Korea. But Texas is running right along beside them.
Only question is how long until Texas fully embraces the kind of ethnic cleansing common to Israel.
And yet Texans dont pick up their guns they like bragging about and FUCKING FIX IT.
Gerrymandered?..sure. And Texans approve. Not buying the “omg we’re so helpless!” bullshit from the people who never shut up about how goddamn tough they are.
And yet Texans dont pick up their guns
And point them where?
At the Nazis. At Paxton. At Abbott.
Good luck with getting a firearm inside spitting distance of a state official.
How about firing distance?
They just banned them here in Alabama last week
But it snows in Minnesota. Fuck being cold.
The houses are warm and insulated (in general). The clothing keeps one warm between buildings. Friendly people.
Snow is around for less than 6 months a year.
“Snow is around for less than 6 months a year.”
I’ve seen snow maybe 4 times in my life enough to disrupt traffic and that was too much. 60° is pretty cold
It gets so cold here the air literally stings your face, even with no wind…but I’ve seen the rest of the country and I’m staying right here
Tim Walz is fucking killing it.
Ban THC but allow alcohol, tobacco, and guns?
BHA-HA-HA-HA!
THC can let people have introspection of themselves and the world around them.
Alcohol is a downer than dumbs you down. And a lot of it can weigh you down for if you need to fight against something.
Tobacco is an upper that you can do with other tasks, and is addictive. Tobacco is heavy in use in red states and the military.
Guns can be aimed at anyone for any reason no matter the justification.
So if you’re a government wanting to keep the working class poor, dumb, distracted, and needing to work for their fixes along with rent, food, anything medical, why give them acess to something that could break this?
Maybe I’m thinking too much on this.
i love how joe rogan and elon moved to texas from california for “freedom”
Texas has rich person freedom though
Anyone still listening to JRE know what he thinks about it? I wonder if he went full hypocrite at this rate or still has some principles.
he went from weed to horse ROIDS.
