And saying that music sounds better high is like saying ugly chicks look fuckable whist drunk.
Pot tasted like a dirty sponge, and I've also figured out that I don't need any more help being lethargic and sleepy. Dud for me.

scott is right: it makes you hear things differently, or at least it makes you think you are hearing things differently. I still think it helped me notice details I hadn't noticed before in recordings and videos, and that it made it more probable that I would discover those details; but I'm not convinced I could not have picked them up without pot (more that it made me more likely to notice them). There was a brief period after I stopped smoking pot that various music would make me think, "Oh man, I wish I were listening to this stoned," but I almost never think that now, and definitely haven't stopped enjoying music. (I think that dancing for long stretches of time also makes you hear music differently, but maybe it's more subtle.)

At least one of the friends that were smoking with him says that he really didn't inhale--the pot was too harsh for him, and he kept coughing it out.

This is surprising. It makes me much more comfortable socially. Not as comfortable as alcohol, but it's way better than being sober. When I'm sober and thrust into social situations (parties, mostly) I typically want to run away screaming. Pot makes it easier for me to veg out against a wall and examine the people around me; makes me feel less self-concious. (I understand it's the total opposite in many people, though.)

yeah that brand should win some sort of design award.
"would you say the effect lines up with the description?"
more or less. mostly feel which ones make you feel up and the ones that don't. don't know about any love vibes on the love one.
i will say that the camino gummy i had the other night is marketed as *bliss* for its effect and man it was really truth in advertising. i totally felt blissful. this doesn't always happen with gummies.
― scott seward, Thursday, 5 October 2023 18:34 (six months ago) link
i just think that this is the beginning of people using science to make the perfect thc pills that will have all kinds of effects. its a brave new world. people have never really made edibles on such a massive scale before.
― scott seward, Thursday, 5 October 2023 18:36 (six months ago) link
In the end, imo it doesn't matter if any of these (really well packaged!) products actually provide the precise promised/desired effects as long as the person taking them thinks they do. This stuff is pretty hard to quantify, especially (after so many years of suppression) with little research to back up any specific claims. Iirc one of the factors hampering federal legalization is the sheer number of compounds in cannabis, close to 500, some 70 or so of them psychoactive, and few of them studied in isolation.

For years we've had a pretty reliable baked-goods supplier that delivered. But her dosing is, um, not particularly measured.
I switched to delta 8/9 gummies and am happy with how predictable they are.
Smoking is not pleasant for me.

I think I may have asked about this before but are there any supplements or other remedies anyone can recommend to fight next day weed hangovers and grogginess? I want to smoke more but have to limit it because I generally feel like shit the day after even if I only smoke a small amount.

Xxxpost, Wyld & PC Pure gummies come in more sophisticated flavors, I have some Blackberry Vanilla Fig ones right now, but they still have that funky cannabis aftertaste. Straight grape or cherry flavors mask it more I've found.

I think the only solution is to time is so you're not high at all when you go to sleep, it's the sleep cycle disruption that gives you a weed hangover as I understand it.
― papal hotwife (milo z), Thursday, 5 October 2023 21:56 (six months ago) link
Yeah, I was going to say that for me the fog is worse the later in the night the consumption happens. Similar to alcohol, really. The closer you are to sober by bedtime, the better you'll feel in the morning. Of course, if you partly like weed to help fall asleep — hi there! — then the timing gets a little tricky. But for me it's rarely that big a deal, I'm sure it varies a lot by person — like everything with weed.

Whenever I take anything to help sleep, it's usually right before bed, so I generally don't get any effects (that I know of) besides a good night's rest. Only challenge comes when the cat wakes me up in the middle of the night and demands a very groggy escort to the food dish. He's lucky I haven't stepped on him, I'm lucky I haven't fallen down the stairs.

fun times at prog nite at the local bar yesterday, we had a circle going featuring FIVE different forms of weed - one guy was passing a J, one guy had a bowl, I had my Pax2, the bartender had her vape pen, and then the DJ had some popcorn his wife made, which I ate against my better judgement, though luckily it was not too strong! suffice to say I was reaaaally feeling Gong that night

first time I went it was mostly older folks which was cool because some of them have actually seen these bands back in the day and will talk about what it was like getting The Lamb the day it was released. but lately there's actually been a lot of younger folks (well, people my age or a bit younger). outside one of them was asking the DJ "oh was that Van Der Generator before?". was really cool to see. later in the night he'll start playing stuff like Hawkwind and people will actually come onto the dance floor, it's wild

after all this talk on here i decided to take a thc cleanse! meaning, no gummies for awhile. its sad but i am already seeing the benefits. getting up earlier. more focus. reading at night instead of just passing out after hours of streaming tv/movies. i was totally using them as medicine. the gummies. since the pandemic. for nighttime jitters. but i feel okay now. for me. mostly okay. thc definitely dulls my interest in things. which i kinda wanted for awhile. i didn't want to think. but thinking can be underrated.
