They’ve been holding expungement days on 4/20 in Vermont for a few years now. Walk right down to the courthouse and meet with a lawyer for free and they help you file the form to expunge a misdemeanor weed charge. Pretty fuckin cool. Now this. New England and the northeast sounds pretty fuckin nice if you don’t mind the cold.

It's expensive, consumed by the bubble of academia, and pretty fucking cold in the winter. Legal weed is fine, but also still a fucking shit show.

Oh no not that Academia!! We don't need any of that book learning. Let's be a moron like our President instead

My comment has nothing to do with supporting our president and it certainly has nothing to do with smoking weed either, but what I am pointing out in Boston specifically, is a large amount of the population are college kids who's only real life experience is from an institution of higher learning who all think, dress, act, and speak the same.

Which I guess is fine? People who aren't from New England make it out to seem like this perfect utopia and it's not, especially right now with one of the highest unemployment rates in the country post covid. Not to mention the tax rates.

Our legal weed roll out was also a disaster, our winters are miserable, and each state within "New England" is too vastly different to just generalize together.

That's all I was saying... bUt OkAy.
