Big fan!
Lately, Iāve definitely been smoking more than usual (and more than I should), but on the whole, it helps me get going in the right amount. In the mornings/ early afternoon, Iāll get my coffee and take a hit or two, and then Iām in the perfect balance of caffeinated and high.
I love to cook with thc as well. I learned how to make infused beef stock, so with that and good ole cannabutter, I have made some pretty damn good meals. This is a lot of experimentation, and sometimes the experiment knocks me on my ass, but itās all part of the fun for me.
I do notice that I will sometimes fall in a cycle of smoking because Iām anxious, then getting even more anxious/ paranoid, then smoking some more to try and balance it out (this does not work).

but i am muuuch less of a pothead than i was in college lol
& i agree w the other post about how strong it is in legal states; i try to get things with higher cbd amounts to balance it out
nowadays i mainly use it for sleep / stress, i have a very stressful job and chronically struggle with sleeping (falling asleep + nightmares yay) and it helps all three without leaving me groggy the next day
and also sometimes itās just fun to get a little high and go to a fun movie or the botanical gardens or whatever :)

Bruh. Cbdeeeee. I am allergic to weed (SAD), and after years of moping about it, i was like..time to experiment. I have āa tremendous amount of anxietyā ..doctorās words, verbatim lmao. I would say Iām like one of those little crusty white dogs who shakes and whimpers at the sound of a pin dropping. Iāve been relying on cbd tinctures, herbs, potions, gloopies and gobstoppers to keep me sane. Also Effexor but thatās not really a fun thing to buy, and i love shopping. Dad Grass makes some really nice prerolls. They also have Mom Grass, and itās always a hard decision to choose between mama and papa, so I often just buy a pack of both. Both hit! Loves it.

unlike other people here I've had bad trips and bad highs and not been totally turned off of weed. but like all good things for me, it's incredibly specific and conditionial. mostly because I am actually, medically hypersensitive. everything I take and do is in comparatively small doses and my experience will peak at a certain dose and then nosedive from there.
I started with like 25mg edibles and had a great time for a long time. eventually worked myself into reverse tolerance over the course of a bad year. not a huge deal, I just started doing it once a month again, or longer. and it really wasn't a hard transition for me. but one time when I was in my longest tolerance break I was offered half an edible and went yeah sure. umĀ it was 50mg of a strain I already didn't like. I had fun for five minutes and then for three hours I couldn't talk and vertigo was so bad I couldn't move. wanted to throw up but I couldn't move a muscle in my body. and all I could see was stars in my vision. for the first time on weed I was actually tripping too. it's the only time I've been high that I remember extremely vividly y'know. thought I was gonna die the whole time.
that traumatized me for a while and even then it took me a bit to finally stop all together. weed isn't addictive but my body was begging for something and that's all I knew. but nowadays I've found alternatives for everything but pain and the high itself, mainly adrenal suppliments and even then there's aleve and shit.
I didn't think there's any risk to using edibles but apparently if you're chronically ill or getting reverse tolerance a green out can get really intense and actually be dangerous. but I think the "high" and "experienced user" amounts are 1. subjective and 2. kind of wild. even a 2mg edible can get me a good time so it's best to accept and learn that trying to achieve some kind of heroic dose of weed of all things is dumb. it doesn't do anything after a certain amount I promise.
I mostly take edibles for pain because I don't want to be too dissociated. or I bump with other things for the fun of it. but I prefer to do it alone and make a little ritual out of it. it doesn't feel like a "party drug" to me it feels like the only way to get my body to relax a little yk

Why not go through the process of blending those images yourself? Why not use process as an experiment? Why AI? What part are you playing? What makes it yours?
I think AI is impersonal. I think it is unethical when it has relied on the theft of actual peopleās actual physical (and because of the nature of art, often time emotional) labor. I also think it is unnecessary in creating art. I also think the environmental impacts are atrocious. I also think AIās biggest supporters are being maliciously ignorant because itās a fun new toy.
Is it ease? Is it efficiency? People talk about accessibility as if children donāt use crayons and stickers! As if graffiti artists donāt use postal labels as sticker, as if sand mandalas donāt exist, as if cardboard and tape arenāt in over abundance.

Maybe this isnāt so much a fix for staff, but I feel like the reposting of things has gotten a bit lame. I donāt want the āEveryoneā feed to be the same post 20 times with nothing added, especially when the thing being re-recād isnāt even a real reccomendation in the first place. I like this app because it is different than Instagram and Twitter and tumblr and the like. I feel like people are trying to interact similarly to those other apps here. I feel like we are all drifting back into creating the same social media AGAIN.
My vote would be to remove the feature entirely, but I see how it can be used thoughtfully
