I have experimented on myself quite a bit with THC. It isnât a pain reliever in my experience. I have had a headache or body pain, used some, and then I was just like âfuck, thatâs all I can think about now.â
Itâs great to distract from general malaise or boredom, but wonât help if anything painful is actually happening.
Conversely, Iâm a medical user exclusively for pain. I take 50mg twice a day and have very little effect on the mind but it stops my pain nearly completely.
Yeah that bit has always confused me. I get that they shouldnât be killed too long before cooking to prevent spoilageâŠbut with basically any other animal, we kill it first, not cook it alive. So wtf? Why not just kill it quickly and then throw it in the pot?

Yeah especially because countries like Switzerland and New Zealand have banned the practice.

Restaurants can use en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CrustaStun for the most humane option
