    It’s even gotten absurdly easy for us to renew our cards. Was once a year, had to be an office visit where they interrogated you about how bad your issues still were, wait for your card in the mail. Now it’s every two years and, in large part because of covid, you pay your card fees in advance on the state website, then it’s a phone call with the doctor’s office where they just basically ask “is it still helping? Symptoms ok? Everything alright?” for like 5 mins and then you’re approved, and can print your card from the website.

    edit: and my dispensary gave me 50% off my next purchase if I did it before my old card expired. They are awesome. See here:

    edit2: I still think it’s kinda crazy that years ago I had to keep it under wraps for numerous reasons and now I’m a card carrying drug user who can casually place an order on a public website, with discounts and a rewards program. Progress, brah.
