What's right with California?

[Copelius]

Are you kidding me?... Feinstein looks alt-right by California standards.

I am hoping they will get Jennifer Lawrence, who has announced she is going to take some time off to "fix our democracy", to run for her seat. She is a middle school dropout but claims to be 'self educated'. She seems like the prefect candidate for the Cali dems and would represent the millennials there well.

Not eligible until 2020, but would be entertaining.

Legalized recreational marijuana is something that is right about California.

So I had never been to a dispensary before, but I went to one the other day because it is now legal here and I am curious. It pretty much destroyed the stereotype I was expecting. I expecting was tattoos, nose rings, dreadlocks, eyes barely open and stoner drawls, from both customers and what they term "budtenders". While there was a small subsection of clientele that fit the stereotype, the overwhelming majority of the patrons were business professionals, soccer moms, and retirees. I remember looking around and thinking to myself that there isn't a single "stoner" in the group. Then an early 20s guy and his girlfriend came in the lobby and they checked off the expected stereotype.

The "budtenders" reflected their clientele. I was helped by a 40 something soccermom named Karen. I don't smoke and don't really want to start so i was interesting in edible options. Karen told me about several products that she routinely uses and I wound up settling on a package of chocolate covered espresso beans that have a 5mg dose of THC per bean. I don't know how often i will partake but my experience was overwhelmingly positive and not at all what I expected.

The stoner stereotype is dying these days. With the legalization of marijuana, it is becoming suburban professionals that are the main clientele for legalized dispensaries. I was talking to a friend of mine that I knew from my days in Oregon. She was mentioning going to a mom group. The conversation among the mothers in that group ended up being about favorite strains and what they were growing. My LDS mom friend said she didn't really have anything to add to that discussion.

This same mommy group probably swaps essential oils. Dummies.

I didn't know that essential oils were a big deal among marijuana smoking mothers. I guess that is some good common ground for Mormon mommies and MJ mommies.

That's awesome... Utah needs to legal weed soon otherwise doTerra may move its HQ to California so they can start selling MJ favored essential oils to the hippy moms.

Multi-level marketing for weed. Holy cow, can you imagine?

umm that is actually not a bad idea. Easier and less intimidating to buy cannabis products from a friend...hard to get the license to sell though...at least for now.

I've looked into opening a weed store for my son to run... it would be right up his alley... but it's a dang tough business and a vast majority fail.

Maybe you should run the multilevel "essential weeds" idea by him... He could recruit return missionaries to get in on the "ground level" by selling the essential weeds door-to-door in the summer starting with the members in your ward.

Essential weeds.

Aside from that being one of the funniest things you have ever said on here, it's also fairly genius, and someone will do it someday. I'm sure will have stuff like these.

Yeah, I can see all kinds of complementary products you can sell with the Essential Weeds as well... like some products from the "Out of Africa Primitive Art" store.

Whoa. Hang on. Wait a minute!

They are dumping (Feinstien) because she is too moderate?
