Effects of ingesting THC Cannabis Oil versus Inhaling THC from Cannabis
I’ve never really seen a discussion about the effects of smoking or vaping cannabis versus consuming a full spectrum cannabis infused oil, so I thought I would offer some of my own personal experience. Many people have said to me that the psychoactive effects of the two feel very different. In my opinion, having experimented a lot with both, I feel that the psychoactive effects of both are really about the same, however, there is a difference in terms of onset, duration, intensity, and the initial physical reactions. First, when you inhale any form of cannabis, you’re going to feel the full effect of it within about 10-15 minutes. Edible cannabis oil and you are looking at about one hour before you feel the onset of the effects and about one and a half hours until you’re feeling the full effect of the dose you’ve taken. Then the duration. The psychoactive effects of smoking or vaping cannabis normally lasts for about 2 to 3 hours in the system. Ingesting any form of cannabis oil normally last a bit longer, or at least about 3 to 4 hours (after the one hour onset activation time has passed). The two biggest differences to me are the strength and intensity and the initial feeling. With an oil, you are normally going to feel the effects much stronger once it reaches peak level in the body because it’s a concentrated form of THC. You can achieve the same level of THC concentration from vaping or smoking, but, unless you’re smoking a lot of it all at once, then you are probably not going to feel it as intensely as you will from a concentrated form of THC, something like an edible cannabis oil. To me, the initial onset of the psychoactive feeling is probably the most important difference. With an oil, the THC works itself through your bloodstream and into your brain more slowly than if you inhale it. The benefit of this is that you often don’t get that initial rush of increased heart rate or that hot/flush feeling that you sometimes do when smoking or vaping, which I believe occurs when the brain is feeling the full effect of the THC so quickly. I see this slower onset of the THC effects as a huge benefit because the onset of the psychoactive feeling from the oil comes on in a more relaxed way, which I find is much more pleasurable for someone who wants to use it as a method for relaxation or as a sleep aid. If you just want to get high quickly, and are not concerned about any initial physical reactions, then smoking or vaping it is better. But used purely for relaxation, I think oil is the best way to go. For example, I often vape a bit of it before I get into bed, but it’s hard to fall asleep right away afterwards because the initial burst of the THC from inhaling it usually raises my heart rate for the first 20-25 minutes. With the oil, I swallow some of it, get into bed and, as the oil starts taking affect, I start to feel more relaxed from the THC and then doze off without any feelings of anxiety from any form of increased body temperature or heart rate. Overall, I would say I do enjoy vaping for the immediacy of the effects when I want to get high quickly however, I do prefer the more relaxed feeling from the slow creep of the onset of effects when swallowing some oil. Oil is also more portable and easier to consume on a regular basis as it requires no burning or extra equipment to be able to consume it. Just carry it in a small glass dropper bottle and you can take a few drops of it anytime or anywhere with complete discretion, no smoke and without causing any disturbance to others. I usually just squeeze out a few drops from the glass dropper onto a square of my favorite chocolate, then eat it and done. -

J.D.Vance declines to criticize Tucker Carlson over his friendly chat with Holocaust Denier
Its not trolling to point out the irony of a French citizen who has previously supported antisemitism on this Board commenting on what might constitute Holocaust denial. -

Cnn just exposed harris
As for CNN "exposing" Harris, that garbage network has all but committed ratings suicide with its past grossly inaccurate coverage of Trump 24/7 for almost a decade. The crowning glory of it was Joe S's gushing praise of Biden as being totally fit for office, never sharper, etc. How embarassing for them when Joe was exposed as the senile old fool he has been for years at the debate for all the world to see. The debate they hosted was a fair attempt to regain some of the credibility and ratings they had been losing, and this latest attempt at real journalism (for a change) has got to be more of the same effort. However, it's strange that CNN would do this right as they rehire that round fellow with the bald head they had fired only two years earlier for grossly biased and false reporting. Time will tell whether CNN is sincere. -

I may be wrong, but part of the reason Russian and other Slavic prisoners died could be that Germany did not want to spend much food for "Untermensch". -

Thai girlfriend working in a bar
It seems that many of the relatively young posters on here haven't read the books published back in the 70's about westerners attempting to "save" girls from the indignity of a life of prostitution. One of the most impressive was "Patpong Sisters" written by an American woman who became an intimate friend of a woman who worked in Patpong. She concluded that you could take a girl out of Patpong but you couldn't take the Patpong out of the girl. The book makes for interesting reading. -

Its Happening - Law to Tax Overseas Income Now in Progress
It's bad enough I have to pay tax on interstellar/multi-dimensional income to Uncle Sam for life, but Thailand wants a cut also? I ran the numbers.........I manage my finances to remain at the zero tax limit in the USA, which will result in $10,000 paid annually to Thailand. All capital gains are taxed as normal income with no offset for capital losses. I don't think so. How do you say 'hello' in Khmer? -

HOW TO: How to get rid of a single persistent mosquito, at night?
Dear Folks, Unfortunately, this will not be a long Topic, as I am now unable to easily sit at my computer, being consistently dive-bombed by just one super mosquito...already bitten me several times, and she is still out for blood! Some of her bites, on my hands, I have already rubbed raw with a stiff scrub brush....yet still they itch, and itch.... I cannot see her, buy I can HEAR her. What can I do... Oh... What can I DO!!!!? I am sure you realize, just from being in my position in the past, that this is actually NOT a joke. I have tried opening one door to the bathroom....with a light on... Yet, she will not cooperate. So.... Any ideas? And, just about.... How much longer will she live...if I do not kill her before she dies a natural death? Thank you so much. Best regards, Gamma -

mRNA Nano-Structures in Covid vaccines - A Comprehensive Longitudinal Study
"Through either naiveté or kinship, some journal editors actually let anti-vaccine crusaders publish their sloppy work. Much of it gets published in journals that look predatory, with a quick turnaround time and little scrutiny. Then there is the impressive-sounding International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research, which appears to be a journal recently set up specifically to launder COVID-19 anti-vaccine speculation. Its editor-in-chief has a doctorate in general linguistics, and associate editors include noted anti-vaxxers like Seneff and Brian Hooker.

Dick Cheney Will Also Vote For Harris
That sounds to me very like tossing the baby out with the bathwater. It's a matter of record MAGA people are lower socio-economic class, with an average IQ 3-4 points less than the national average. In Australia, we have had a succession of conservative governments who think it's a good idea to save money by defunding trade schools. The end result - we have a national shortage of electricians, plumbers, carpenters etc. Personally, I'd prefer any bureaucracy to be run by smart people. -

J.D.Vance declines to criticize Tucker Carlson over his friendly chat with Holocaust Denier
Please. Such an obvious question to ask. Particularly given his disapproval of Churchill's continuing the war. And according to that article he didn't just claim that FDR should not have entered the war but that he chose the wrong side. And he didn't say that Churchill owed money to the banks, rather that Churchill was in thrall to the "financiers". "That's not the way banking is talked about But it is the way anti-semites refer to Jewish bankers. Nor does he specify what financial interests would be served by the UK standing up to Germany. And David Lough, who wrote a book about Churchill's financial problems, makes no mention of any such pressure. Obviously, anyone like Cooper with those views ought to be asked where they stood on the reality of the Holocaust. And, by the way, according to this, that 4 million in debt was in 2019 dollars. Not what it was back then. "In “No More Champagne: Churchill and His Money,” David Lough explains how Winston Churchill projected a seemingly extravagant image of wealth despite living on the edge of crippling financial debt. Churchill accumulated a debt equivalent to $4 million in today’s dollars by the 1930s." https://www.cnbc.com/2019/06/09/churchill-bad-at-finances.html
