I've got GI issues and can dunk on edibles all I like.

These edibles ain't shit!

See?

I hate it

Do you mean that the GI issues prevent you from feeling the effects from edibles?

I don't think it absorbs well in my gut, but idk, all I do know it that 500mg does nothing but make me sleepy

As a Crohn's sufferer. Yup... Edibles, Iron, Magnesium, B12, and a host of other stuff, just will not absorb through the GI tract.

But fat, sugar, and salt? No problemo!

Grumble, grumble, fuck this disease, grumble.

I'm not questioning your experience but I've been using most of my life, have Crohn's (actually in remission because my guts have been heavily edited and I have an ostomy), and I've always been a total lightweight when it comes to edibles.

I think there's some other physiological difference that determines this but I'm not an expert.

Apologies, stream of consciousness took over.

Buy the shit you need first, then follow the steps in the order outlined, you won’t be disappointed.
