Husband and I have been indulging for - um - let’s just say a LOT of years!

It’s still my only vice.

No reason to target me with a drone strike when I'm out on the lake casting for some lunkers. I'm not destroying America with dangerous illegal drugs.

I have a fairly benign version, but the distracting burning sensation in the feet is helped by a light buzz.
Doesn't help the neuritis that shut off my left eye, though.
Got diagnosed in '95. But, nothing debilitating or life altering.
How are you managing?

Vaping dried bud is as potent as smoking but without the noxious combustion by products.

Edibles are great too, but a different thing: longer onset (two hours vs 5 minutes to max buzz), longer duration, and less efficient per milligram of THC.

Might take a puff to go to sleep, but after they made it legal I’ve slowed way down took the fun out of it for me.
Just had some blood work done and tested clean for pot. Would be the first time since 1968.

weed is legal. I don't smoke, but I do gummies, a cannabis-infused lemonade, and cookies. Nice.

I tried it "back in the day" but it always made me paranoid. I do like the smell of it, as long as it is not skunk.

What's interesting is that some people with migraines get relief by smoking weed.

Its still illegal in Wisconsin, and I know of several people who have moved because of that.
