When I first heard the phrase “freedom fighter,” it was used as a euphemism for a military presence in a foreign country. Yet, this time around, while I was in traffic after leaving my yoga class, I learned of a different fight for freedom.
I wondered about the legality of selling these marijuana-laced sweets in Alabama, where this van’s license plate hailed from. I wasn’t even aware that people could sell such goodies in Texas. I spotted this on the Monday following 4/20, which may account for why it was here: there has always been a Marley Fest in Austin around this time of year since I’ve lived here.
The longer we sat in traffic, the more I pondered what would citizens from Weed World actually look like. At first blush, I was inclined to believe that they would be very laid back and hardly anything would get done–good or bad. Then, as reality crept in, I remembered that many a professional already smoke and consume edible marijuana foods; so Weed World has been embedded into this one for some time.
