No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

You already have some great answers in the thread, but i just want to add that if you or anyone else reading this is trying marijuana for the first time, do an edible, as low strength as you can get it, and see if you like it first before experimenting with the other ingestion methods.
Smoking it will be an unpleasant feeling and you will cough and sputter and your throat will get hella dry.
Vaping or using a bong will probably get you too high too quickly and you might have a bad trip.
For my first time I did a 2.5mg gummy and it was not quite enough. I could feel it working but it was too low dose to have an inebriating effect on me. Then I bumped it up to 5mg and it was great, gave me a nice head high without completely disabling me, i could still carry on a conversation and play videogames and such without any kind of impairment. I went up to 10mg and that was the sweet spot for feeling high for hours but not really being able to do much other than binge watch YouTube videos and eat junk food. I'm not really going to be productive or coherent in that state. 20mg gummy gave me a bad high both times that I tried it so that's pretty much my limit.
Just be careful and give them time to kick in. The "these edibles ain't shit" mentality is real and will get you into trouble fast. Can sometimes take 2+ hours to ramp up to the full effect and will last for 8-10 hours afterwards.
if it's your first time a cart can be fine IF you set the voltage low on the battery and take a small hit, but I agree an edible is better
