I once showed my girlfriend how to make edibles. I told her to not lick the bowl or the spoon. I still don't know what she thought why i said it, but she proceeded to lick it anyway. She was so plastered that she couldn't hold herself on the sofa.

Some lessons we just have to learn for ourselves.

[–] turdcollector69@lemmy.world 63 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Sometimes we need to learn multiple times to make sure it was just a one time fluke

[–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 29 points 3 days ago

And if you're writing down what you learn, it's science!

Me trying salvia once a year in my late teens/early 20s.

"Surely it wasn't as bad as I remember"

I was always wrong.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Is it really that bad? I always hear, that its bad, but havent met someone who tried it.

My last trip started with me standing in front of one of those papasan chairs. After I took my hit, I sat down and fell backwards into a black hole.

I got spit out in the old Steamboat Willie cartoon, except it was in 3 colors: black, white, and evil. This continued for a few minutes until the giant Looney Tunes red curtain dropped down on me, and reality returned, but it was made up of small squares rotating on their vertical axis.

Of course, that was about the time the cute girl in the apartment across the street came by to ask to borrow laundry detergent, and my roommates let her in and had me handle the interaction.

If you want a drug that will make you leave reality for a few minutes, I hear that DMT is basically a happy salvia.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's wild.

I already knew about DMT, but I still want to gather some more experience with Acid before I Am dipping my toes into the water of DMT

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I thoroughly enjoyed the "acid" I've done. And it's in quotes because I suspect it was one of the 2C drugs since it worked with my Prozac.

Shrooms, on the other hand, are the reason I quit psychedelics.

Idk, had shrooms once and they were an absolute disappointment. I also had 4-Pro-MET recently thats said to be similar to psilocybin and that was also kinda dissapointing.

Sometimes we learn the wrong lesson. Like that licking the spoon is fun as fuck and a great way to have a chill afternoon.

I wish edibles had any effect on me. Both my SO and I get nothing off homemade or store bought.

We once made some peanut butter cookies from a High Times recipe that we thought we made wrong, my mother tried one and was out of it for the rest of the day.

[–] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I have a high tolerance for edibles but they still send me to space once I hit the threshold where I start to feel it (around 30mg)

Perhaps you've just got a higher tolerance. If you use wax and have for some time, consider medical strength edibles.

[–] squaresinger@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

And if that's not enough, try military strength edibles.

[–] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Military strength? Is that "Just enough to do the job at the lowest cost to produce"?

[–] Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Just enough to do the job at the lowest cost to produce”?

While at the highest cost to purchasers (tax payers)

[–] squaresinger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

It's the cheap additives used to cut the stuff that do the trick.

Only time I've ever felt anything at all was when I had a 50mg gummy. Even then it was pretty mild.

Although I don't get anything from smoking either.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

To me all these people sound exactly like the douchey "I-I can't never eevher geth theh slightestht bhith dhrunk" guys.

Tldr just because you're not perceptive about your own perception doesn't mean it hasn't been altered.

[–] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Have you tried any of the adulterated cannabinoids?

From what I understand ∆-10 and THC-O have higher bioavailability than bog standard ∆-9, perhaps pairing one of them with choice terpenes (limonene is good for getting the creative "sativa" high, pinene is good for a stoney "indica" high) would help you to overcome that tolerance easier.

[–] Buffy@libretechni.ca 12 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I have this too. It's a specific enzyme we have that neutralizes most of the fun.

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Sounds like you just need to take more in order to overcome the enzyme 🤓

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I'm disappointed to learn that edibles probably won't work for me

smoking does nothing. I was looking forward to trying edibles..

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 days ago

I've actually seen many instances of people with a high tolerance for smoking get rocked by edibles and vice versa. It could be worth a try at least.

[–] LemmyFeed@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You could always try boofing it!

[–] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

My local dispo has med supps I was considering picking up. They're a bit strong for something that goes up the bum, 50mg boofed sounds terrifying 😅

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

I think you may be doing something wrong, I would be curious what store bought kind you tried too. It's very easy to mess up making it ingestible, you can't just eat cannabis flower or even raw THC oil, it has no effect ingested unless it undergoes a chemical process, such as being extracted into fat/oil/butter with heat, but not so hot the THC breaks down. Some cheap store brands also are weaker than the label and count on people being suggestible.

I say this because if it effects you inhaled, then it's the same chemical in your blood. It just takes up to an hour to work ingested, sometimes people give up waiting on it and go to bed and miss the effect.

All that said, ingested high feels different than inhaled usually, unless you're using a strong tincture, that stuff can knock you on your ass and your family will find you laying on the floor as you travel through space.

I'm the opposite here. I have a decent tolerance for smoking or vaping, but edibles send me. Even small ones, 5mg and I'm toasty, 10mg and I've punched out for the day.

For some reason, that last panels really sends me.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I want a sticker of just her on the couch, minus the couch.

[–] pticrix@lemmy.ca 33 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Did my best to at least give you a digital sticker to use : exctracted the high character from the last panel

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It's a PNG with alpha transparency! You are the GOAT!

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

One lick and you get debilitated? Weak.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Or strong.

Reminds me of that classical paradox - "Can God bake a batch of brownies that's so strong he can't stay awake?"

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Once made a cake with so much, it turned green.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

You know, it's nice to learn that true visionaries do still exist

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Ah yes, that was Aristotle or Marley, one of the greats

[–] Devjavu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I have wondered for personal reasons what the best way is to store thc for later consumption?

[–] kungen@feddit.nu 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

The easiest way is to bind it to a fat, like making canabutter.

It freezes well, too. And you don't need to bake anything later, just make a cannabutter sandwich.
