No way, never. That's just not who I am.

A "little bit" doesn't begin to cover it...

[–] Agrivar@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

LOL, agreed! I'm only ever a "little bit stoned" when I first wake up in the morning - and the first round of bong hits sorts that right out!

[–] Saraphim@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

I wasn’t before but you’ve inspired me. I’m easily influenced.

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes. Loading up No Man's Sky. My wife just cleaned my piece for me. She's so thoughtful and loving. Gonna take a couple tokes of fresh green from a clean bubbler as this planetary system finishes loading.

Yo post an update for us in a little bit. πŸ‘πŸ» 🌳

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

I'm back from outer space lol

[–] CrimeDad@lemmy.crimedad.work 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Very nice. Do you need a paid subscription to PSN to really play that game?

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I’m thinking about getting my parents, both in their 70s, a pair of oculus quests so they can explore the galaxy together.

They will be.

They will be.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dad is, she’s not. She’s all about new things though. She microdoses mushrooms regularly, travels a lot, likes wearable gadgets.

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

You are a good offspring. (Son? Daughter?) It has been my dream since I was little to go into space. VR NMS would be the closest I'd ever get. If you did this for me as your parent, you will have won at being the best child ever.

If you play it on PC it's just a one-time purchase - all the online features are provided free on Steam or GoG. And the actual universe is cross-platform, so you can still play with friends on consoles!

From everything I'm seeing, it's more stable in PC, too, depending on the type of toaster you're trying to play it on. Definitely invest in s good PC and keep it spec'd up. Makes it nice for other games, too.

[–] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not, but have a good one!

[–] willya@lemmyf.uk 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I had a friend when I was younger we called blaze. He stayed high.

[–] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago

Good to see around man

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

I’m not but I’ll fix that soon. Just got home from work.

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have viral brain fog if that counts.

[–] CrimeDad@lemmy.crimedad.work 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As in from COVID? I'm really sorry about that.

No, it's alright, it's not covid-related. I did have covid in the past but that's all done.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh shit that sucks. What virus? Are you eating antiviral foods?

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Something that runs in my family. It's not a huge deal, just something I deal with occasionally.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it constant or intermittent?

Is there a popular /c/trees anywhere yet?

[–] AttackBunny@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

More than a little.

[–] BromSwolligans@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

But if white widow earlier. But of strawberry cough also earlier but less earlier.

[–] kuneho@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

will be in few minutes ;)

[–] coldv@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Not yet but you just reminded me. Now where did I put that pipe?

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

No, but I was definitely more than a little tipsy when I came into work tonight.

[–] Dave_r@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago

Tentatively raises hand...

[–] Sylver@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If I’m home, I’m stoned. If I’m at work, I’m only β€œa little bit” stoned!

[–] dingus@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I wish my tolerance wasn't so high and that it helped the pain more.

[–] kava@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah weed doesn't help with pain whatsoever for me. Kratom does though. And that also helps with sleep. A nice tall glass of kratom powder mixed with water right before bed is great

[–] Shdwdrgn@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Maybe a better balance with CBD? Try mixing different strains together, sometimes the properties work together better than any single strain. Unfortunately this is going to vary depending on your local grows, what options you have available, and your particular type of pain. I know what helps me sleep at night is vastly different from what my wife uses for daily pain.

Also it does help to take a day off now and then to let your system purge so you don't completely insensitive to the benefits. Definitely a hard day to get through, but it makes a difference.

[–] marco@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Am I the only one who gets 0 benefits from CBD?

Agreed.

I keep my tolerance (and intake) low. I don't care about getting high, I just need to sleep better. I occasionally have some when it's not right before bed if I'm having a bad day re mental health but keep that a very, very low levels. I liken it to having a single beer.

When you do this, you get the health benefits (physical and mental) without negative effects, or at least that is how it works for me.

[–] eddietrax@dmv.social 3 points 1 year ago

You don’t even know how high I can fly

[–] theangriestbird@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Me? Always. Where's the Lemmy r/trees community?

[–] Rinnarrae@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Me! + a bit of hard cider in the mix

[–] beizhia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Not right now, but I will tomorrow I promise

[–] NightAuthor@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anything more than like 2.5mg seems to put me in a dysfunctional state where my short term memory is just… idk how to describe it other than completely and utterly fucked.

Idk if it’s just my genes, or ADHD or both, but my wife can tank edibles even as the petite little thing she is.

I find that if I let myself get more than a little bit stoned, then I will feel cranky or even hungover the next day. A little bit goes a long way for me.
