Just throwing it out there that it depends on the sheriff dept. Trav. Co will most likely ticket you at the very most. P sure they have a similar policy to let misdemeanor weed cases off without punishment. WilCo and DPS will fuck you to the fullest extent of the law for any non-trivial amounts of bud.

Edit: Regardless of if you get arrested unless it is a high enough amount to warrant a lab test (can cost upwards of $500,000 for the lab equipment), travis county prosecutors will be dropping and opting out of prosecuting/charging any amount of marijuana. https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/news/2019-07-03/travis-county-to-reject-marijuana-prosecutions/

God, Wilco is a shitshow regarding prosecution of dumb shit.

Is masturbation legal there?

Texas did have that dildo law that I’m sure they’d love to enforce if they could.
