Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I can't do edibles. I took 10 mg once and my heart-rate was 155 just sitting on the couch. Never again.
I can assure you that this was not an enjoyable experience.
Haha and here I gotta take around 150 mgs to really feel it. 100 is usually a good buzz.
I would be the first recorded death due to cannabis at that level of high. I would go to the hospital and demand they put me in a coma.
There have been a couple occasions I've had to take close to a gram of edible before I felt anything. You'd be absolutely ruined by that dose.
For a while we had these 1,000 mg drinks and I really wanted to grab one and chuck the whole thing to see how I would make out but now there's no dispensaries that carry it.
Hahaha I feel you. Mines due to tolerance. I quit for about a year and had a 15mg gummy in Colorado a few years back. Let’s just say I had a full on anxiety attack haha.
Was that your first time or had you been using edibles for a while before that? I'm just curious because 10 mg is a pretty huge dose if you didn't have prior experience with the stuff.
1st time: 2.5 mg - felt nothing
2nd time: 5 mg - felt nothing
3rd time: 7.5 mg - felt nothing
4th time: 10 mg - Outerspace zooted out of my fucking gourd.
Did you invoke the magic phrase? You must say "these edibles ain't shit" to activate their power.
I don't dare utter such words.
