my dad sends me an article about it like every other month. pretty sure its real but very very rare, and i suspect caused not just by weed itself but exacerbated by certain eating/hydration habits associated with stoners. but thats just like, my personal theory

like, its easy to get real high and just house an entire 9-serving bag of some salty snack and not realize it, and if you are doing that kind of thing every day and compounding that with not hydrating properly and being inactive etc. then its going to completely gently caress up your digestion

obviously, i dont know if all of the stoners who came down with this condition eat junk foods and sit around too much, the articles usually don't get into that. but i've known a lot of stoners.

I will sometimes get nauseous feeling if I'm like, chaining bowls in the big arizer and not eating for hours, but I think that's more "hosed up hunger pains" than legit imma-barf nausea

Yes there are actually two recorded cases of people dying from it, because they refused to stop smoking weed and kept throwing up so much that they died of dehydration.

It's largely attributed to the fact that weed these days is 10-100x more potent than it was back in the day that all the addiction/safety studies were done, so there's increasing prevalence of literal weed addiction (like actual physical withdrawal symptoms) particularly from people who hit super high potency dabs or extracts or whatever sciency poo poo all day, CHS, and other problems caused by overconsumption of super-high-potency weed that are now being observed and only recently starting to be studied, and the scientific consensus currently seems to be that modern weed potency makes it very dangerous for anyone under the age of 25 whose brain is still developing

I used my card in colorado. It was weird because they had to round up to the next $20 but gave me the difference back in cash.

That's because they were technically acting as an ATM. If you used your debit it should have come out of your account like a withdraw, if a credit card then it would be a "cash advance" (usually a higher APR if I remember correctly).

yeah there's a store I used to go to in Washington that did this - you could use your debit/ATM card at the counter, they'd round up the balance and give back cash

dang if they aren't clear and up front about that, that is some bullshit right there

i think, too, that cash advances on credit cards start accruing & compounding interest immediately instead of at the start of the next cycle like a regular charge

Maybe dissolve it under your tongue. And if that's not shite RSO, an inch long with the thickness of a rice grain would time travel me to Tuesday

I put it on a toothpick and put it under my tongue. Usually gets me going within 30 minutes. For me RSO is all physical but if i take like 2 hits of flower after it starts working then i am right as rain.

RSO always takes for loving ever to kick in for me but when it does, I generally launch out to space and it's great

It stays fun if I only do edibles once a week or less :keke:

That said, I only even learned how to make weed butter in the first place because it was so effective at relieving period cramps without all the caffeine of OTC pain meds, so being in pain & not being able to use it for its more business-like purpose is quite the bummer

the first two times I did edibles I watched that daft punk anime movie, and forgot what happened and was like I need to rewatch that, and rewatched it and forgot what happened, and on the third watch I got it.

poo poo would hit you like a train, after a long 2 hours wait, WHAMO, no turning back. fanta beware.
