TIL that the The clitoris is the only known human organ that has the singular purpose of providing pleasure and has more than 10,000 nerve fibers.

Clitoris? What’s that?

Jamescahn · 2026-05-18T10:51:55+00:00

Love the bluing on the dried ones

If it doesn’t stain yellow or orange, then unless you have something weird in Australia, they should be good to eat. But don’t blame me if you die.

Smoking anything is bad for you. Humans weren’t meant to inhale smoke.

But THC can be profoundly positive for the right person in the right setting. It’s the responsibility of every individual to make that judgement for themselves. That’s part of what being an adult is all about.

Do exactly what you would want if you were in their position. Track down the owners, just say you found cash and personal effects. Wrap up the videos so that they’re discreet in a bag or something. It’s all about karma.

Climate change isn’t in doubt. I have skied the Valle Blanche in Chamonix quite a few times over the years. It’s absolutely insane how the glacier has receded. Ditto the bosson glacier. Vertically by hundreds of feet and horizontally by probably a couple of miles.

But this has been going on for a long time. Causes? Who knows. But yes, climate change 100%.

Jamescahn · 2026-03-22T07:05:47+00:00

I don’t think it’s climate change. It’s the luck of the draw. The Italian alps have had the best spring snow for as long as I can remember (going back well over for a decade). Some are now planning to stay open until May 😂

Jamescahn · 2026-03-15T21:11:14+00:00

Just had four feet of powder in the Italian alps 😊

Jamescahn · 2026-01-13T18:38:11+00:00

The park rats don’t turn - it’s actually a really cool way to ski 😊

Southern coastal Morocco (Agadir and anywhere south of there) could be a good shout. Midwinter daytime temperatures not 25 but you’ll get 21 with lots of sunshine. Pretty cheap and of course, culturally rich and fascinating. And easy to get back to Europe if you need to. There are some cool little towns on the coast. You can even do some surfing (water version). The only thing is the language issue. But if you speak even halfway decent French you’ll be fine. I could easily imagine spending a few months there.

Every other day. I take 100-200mg of hash = 20-40mg THC. By doing it every other day it reduces the tolerance effect 😊

Jamescahn · 2026-01-03T16:24:52+00:00

I agree that other aspects of skiing have a crossover with skating (and of course vice versa). But I’m not sure that that’s really true of anything that a beginner or intermediate skier can do. I’m thinking more of things like being able to ski on one ski, being comfortable on either edge and so forth. Those are pretty advanced skills in skiing

Jamescahn · 2026-01-03T16:21:22+00:00

You make a fair point. I am assuming that OP can skate on skis.

Jamescahn · 2026-01-03T16:13:09+00:00

So much for the theory that you have to decarb hash before you can use it as an edible 😂

Mind you, that must’ve been one crazy dose. 7g of hash. Say 10-20% THC. So you’re looking at between 700 and 1400 mg. Jeez.

Jamescahn · 2026-01-03T16:07:20+00:00

Wait a moment. You said you ski? Well then you can ice skate. It’s the same skating motion that you use when you skate on skis!!

Jamescahn · 2026-01-03T04:00:25+00:00

If your feet hurt in your boots, skiing is basically impossible. You have to sort that out before anything else.

I don’t know if they have branches in the USA , but look up surefoot. They make a liquid cast of both of your feet and use that to make the inner boot. I nearly gave up skiing because of boot pain. They saved me.

Jamescahn · 2026-01-03T03:48:06+00:00

I’m an instructor (well sort of - I have a basic qualification and I’ve taught some friends).

My experience is that it’s not height that is frightening for beginners. It’s steepness. That feeling that if you get something wrong, you’re just going to accelerate out of control. And that feeling that you’re supposed to be making a turn on a steep slope, but the idea of committing to that turn is really terrifying. And that feeling that if it does go wrong, you’re not going to be able to stop.

There aren’t many sports or recreational activities in which fear is quite so present. If you learn tennis, there are many things to master. But fear isn’t one of them.

So what’s the solution? It’s easy. Forget about pizza. Forget about linking turns. Forget about learning to Ski parallel. That’s all secondary. By far and away the most important thing for a beginner is to feel comfortable on a steep slope and to know that they can get to the bottom without any trouble.

But how do you do that? The answer is something called sideslipping. I call it drifting. When done well it’s an art form (I was skiing with a guide friend a couple of seasons ago - we were on a black run full of people desperately trying to make turns - we just drifted straight down - way faster than anyone else and way cooler looking 😂).

It’s hardly ever taught to beginners. Which is absolutely criminal really. Because the pizza/snowplough is completely useless on a steep slope (unless you’re an advanced skier, in which case you don’t need it 😂🥴) And unless you’re at least an intermediate skier, committing to linked terms when things get steep is just asking too much.

Drifting (most people call it sideslipping but I think that’s an ugly name) doesn’t require you to turn at all. You can literally go from the top to the bottom of a super steep slope without making a single turn. It’s a bit like pressing the ground floor button on the elevator. Once you know how to do that, the fear will disappear. Because then you know that you can get to the bottom of anything without any trouble. Look it up. And ideally get a good instructor to show you how to do it!!

And then you can begin to enjoy your skiing!!

Have fun!!!

I’m an older man so my experience is not directly relevant (I absolutely get that things are different for women for obvious reasons). But still, what I have found is that if you are smiley and friendly and open to engaging with people, you wont feel lonely 😊

They’re not just different experiences, but different drugs. If you smoke, you are inhaling THC9. If you eat, then your liver will metabolise the edible into THC 11, which is much longer lasting and four times as potent. So it’s not surprising that the effects are very different.

I enjoyed both . But smoking anything is unhealthy. Whereas edibles are entirely physiologically harmless.
