7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Lmao, people are coming in to dogpile a red state not realizing that recreational marijuana is legal in Missouri. This is strictly over concerns about Delta 8 operating in an unregulated grey area, and it's a fair concern. If you have access to actual weed, you really shouldn't smoke Delta 8. I wouldn't buy anything with Delta 8 even if I was dry and traveling through a non-legal state.
Chalk up one more reason that despite being able to work from anywhere, and it probably having decent housing costs, to stay the hell out of Missouri.
I mean the conditions are right there, in the name of the state.
It's really not that bad, lots of bigots but you don't change that by running away and leaves idiots to idiot without pushback.
That's true I was of course only making a humorous statement
It's not a reason at all, considering they have legal recreational weed in Missouri. I drove through there earlier this year and dispensary billboards were all around the state line areas.
MO has a lot of variety to the state, there are flat areas and hilly areas and forests etc. The flat plain areas are very boring to drive through. There is probably an area that would suit almost anyone out there if you look around long enough.
Which area has legal access to female reproductive care?
I have no idea, but I would assume a gynecologist's office would be available in most of the cities.
If I had a chance to live in Missouri I would take it. There are lots of places way worse than Missouri. Missouri is a utopia compared to Texas for example. Missouri even has legal weed making this delta 8 ban really pointless. It's like banning dog food at an all you can eat buffet.
I agree with this. Delta 8 is pointless when actual weed is already legal. It's unregulated. Might as well smoke gas station bath salts. CBD should be regulated too so nobody is getting duped into buy skunk oil.
Same here in Indiana as of July 1st, except unlike Missouri, actual cannabis is also illegal. It's ridiculous. All it is going to do is drive the people who can't get over to Illinois or Michigan to use other, more risky substances.
Do "supplements" next.
I agree with the delta-8 ban. Can’t have the natural thing, but let’s breathe this chemical we made in the lab and spray on ditch weed.
But you can have the natural thing. Recreational marijuana is legal in MO
Then they really should be banning the lab stuff. No need for it to exist except to line some chemical company’s pockets.
I’m puffing a vape as I scroll because I believe it to be better than smoking a cigarette. Lab-made does not necessarily equal poison.
It's not a synthetic cannabinoid...Delta-8 is typically extracted from hemp plants.
There are also legitimate reasons to prefer D8, even in a legal state. For example, some people prefer it's much more mild effect relative to normal cannabis.
But I do agree with not consuming products that spray it on direct combustibles and the need to have proper government regulations for product safety and testing enforcement.
I enjoyed delta8 because I'm a lightweight these days and weed is strong as fuck these days. I'm more into the THCA now though.
What a bunch of grandparents.
It's very easy for kids in Missouri to get Delta 8. They get it from the same pace that they get vapes. I tried it once and never again.
I tried a Delta 8 gummy once, very pleasant mild high. I also tried a Delta 9 gummy and that stuff is crazy and not enjoyable.
Isn't delta-9 the THC that most people think of wrt marijuana? If so, my experience ranged from barely feeling anything, to a mild pleasant high, to so intense it was unpleasant. (In the last instance I was impatient, didn't feel the effects quick enough and took more.)
I was under the impression that the rise in federal legal sale of delta-9 edibles was because the farm bill allows concentrations of 0.3% by weight -- so in edible form you can make the gummy or whatever big enough to still include a decent dose.
Misery stays miserable
I approve this comment.
