Thanks to John for passing on from ABRA:

“As announced in mid-April, all District and non-resident patients and caregivers are required to have a valid registration to purchase medical cannabis effective Thursday, July 1, 2021.

A 60-day grace period was announced shortly afterwards to allow patients time to secure new recommendations from their healthcare practitioners and updated government-issued photo IDs (if needed)–delaying the deadline date to Monday, September 1.  No additional extensions will be granted.

Thanks to Kanga for sending: “Thought you’d like to see this- outside the convention center on 9th and L, giving out free joints for people that got vaccinated!”

The DCMJ website says:

“From free joints at dispensaries to free bags of weed outside vaccination centers, across the United States cannabis reform advocates are stepping up to organize their own cannabis giveaways to help end the coronavirus pandemic. Read More

“Dear PoPville,

I am wondering what people’s favorite “gray area” companies that sell a product and give away bonus gifts of marijuana. Hard to know what’s legit from a google search and Congress hasn’t been working fast enough to unblock sales in the district.”

So as I was walking down 13th Street yesterday in Columbia Heights when I encountered, depending on your perspective, a neat or not so neat neighborhood find. I have spoken about these little zip lock bags before but I had never encountered a full one. I always thought I’d find a really small peanut butter and jelly sandwich inside but alas my eyes have finally been opened. Fortunately, I didn’t see the proprietor drop his stash but if I did should I have said, “excuse me sir, I think you dropped your stash?”. So anyway, I sold it for $20 bucks so that’s not so bad. (I’m just kidding mom.) To make a long story short, I smoked it. (I’m just kidding mom.) I threw it away. What would you have done with this neat find?
