As a Michigander this is physically painful to say... but you done good Ohio.

[-] nick@midwest.social 15 points 9 months ago

We did. And it pains me to say too. But we did.

Michigan won’t be flying as high anymore on Ohioan’s dollars for marijuana, either!

[-] roboticide@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

For at least a couple more years we will. It took us a bit to set up our system. Probably will take you a couple as well. Takes time to build a distribution network too, since you can't really import it from growers in other states, so for a while ours will probably be cheaper.

But it's still a huge win and it's better for us all to have more states legalize it. And in the meantime we can just both suck Indiana dry of marijuana money.

Well you still have a legislature that has to put the laws into place and setup the system. I bet they do everything they can to slow it down.

Good job, Ohio. Despite our strange relationship I'll call this one a win for everyone.

As a Hoosier, this is mentally and physically painful to say but... please help us!

Thank you, genuinely! I know there's a lot of bad blood but Michigan is stunning and my last few visits have been spectacular (yes even before any cannabis).

I hope you all can find the beauty in Ohio too. I recommend Kelly's Island for the glacial grooves. Also the Cleveland Metroparks; there's a good reason it was once called the Forest City.
