That’s so sad what’s happening with the opiates man, just decimating…

Absolutely man, especially the entirety of where I live! Even more sad when you know we have the infrastructure in place to transition to legit grow operations. In my area we still have everything from when Tobacco was raised, further East into Appalachia there are countless old mining facilities, buildings, etc just rotting away, that could be put to use for hydroponics, not just for weed, but vegetables, anything to give the people a viable way to make an income. Instead they would rather push pills, heroin, fent and then offer the solution in Suboxone or Methadone, never addressing the actual root causes of living in an economic uncertain environment.

Anyone here currently growing their own?

There just seems to be no will to change the situation. And with fentanyl that’s so potent 1lb of fentanyl can make idk how many times more pills or bags whatever than when it was just heroin. It’s nuts! And it’s in everything now. Literally any drug you can make has been found contaminated m. I won’t take shit now unless I test it with reagents and a fentanyl strip. Just too risky man. And you are right, it’s not a coincidence that the same places that have been hallowed out by American moving into a post industrial economy are the same areas these drugs are most popular. Again 😔

Never have and idk if i ever will, seems like a big pain in the ass. Hbu?

Exactly man! Locally I know there is no incentive for law enforcement, courts, etc to stop or slow the trade due simply to the fact their funding will be cut. Like you said you can’t even trust anything you’d get off the street where they’re cutting everything w/fent or tranq. I know about 5-6 years ago I came across some Xanax bars, some were real, others were had fent in them. Same w/the 30’s, which most anyone knows now you’re getting pressed, not real. Couple months ago a local college kid OD on what he thought was coke, which had fent in it. Even crazier is the majority are getting minimal charges, if charged at all, while we legit had a kid from a neighboring college get caught w/QP of decent herb, few tabs of LSD and maybe 10-12 grams of shrooms and they’re trying to hang him basically. I’ve always been a big proponent of plant medicine or any psychedelic, so to see it being prosecuted like fentanyl should be is disheartening to say the least.

Wow that’s disgusting to hear…It’s not like that in California luckily but here we have the opposite problem in that we can be a bit too loose with the law. I’m a big supporter of psychedelic legalization too. I’ve used a whole cornocopia and the least dangerous ones are weed, lsd, shrooms. I think lsd and shrooms are actually less dangerous than weed because you can’t get high on acid day after day like the tolerance shoots up so fast whereas weed you can get high everyday. Idk what that mechanism is the brain but yea. Also some people underestimate weed so they are more likely to go overboard with it I think . I don’t think anyone underestimates LSD lol people are scared of it if anything.

I think a lot of the flack Cali gets drug wise, came from honest, good intentions, but like w/anything the ones w/no self control ruin it for the majority who can maintain and function. Likewise I’ve ran the gamut in my younger years, mostly opiates, but have tried it all and have came to the same conclusion, especially concerning LSD/shrooms. I never realized that your tolerance builds so fast on acid, took half my first time thinking the other half would do the same, only to be disappointed when I found out it in fact would not lol. Still I’d 100% agree that those two are the “safer” when compared to even weed. That’s coming from a pothead, but as you said, it’s so much easier to get high every day, get in that routine of smoking all day every day, where the others you’re just not gonna have the ability or a good time in event you did. Weed also has that “it’s not harmful” stigma, whereas younger kids smoke w/no regard for their developing brain cells, etc. I know around here a lot of people still hold onto that “you’ll go on a trip you’ll never come back from” in relation to LSD, so definitely the rural folk are still terrified, excluding myself 😆!

that’s sad about that kid dude and I agree with all that, it’s also the non goverment institutions too There’s such a big industry of non profits for drug addicts but a lot of it is just they are just spending money to keep the charity open. I mean look as this shit it’s nuts:

LA nonprofit hands out meth pipes to homeless on Skid Row | FOX 11 Los Angeles

Shocking video shows nonprofit workers handing out clean pipes to people on Skid Row. Tax records show the nonprofit received funds from the government.

www.foxla.com

Sometimes compassion is just enabling.
They are doing iv ketamine therapies legally in San Fran I saw an ad for a doctor. I’m so tempted to try. I’ve snorted ketamine before but idk it didn’t do much. This conversation is making me want shrooms and lsd 😂

I’ll agree that’s fucking nuts man! I remember seeing a news snippet from San Francisco, showing a sex offender who had set up a tent across from a catholic school, with a sign saying “free fentanyl”…was like “damn, what a fucking mess!” Was watching a Rogan short talking about the homeless and drug problems plaguing LA, he was explaining there were so many people making six figures or more as “homeless advocates, etc” that there wasn’t an incentive to fix the problem. Like you said also, they’re just keeping em open, spending the $ to make sure they’ll get a budget next year, while ignoring the actual problems.



Man funny you should say that about the ad, literally have been thinking the same thing! I’ve never tried it, but read about all the benefits and have been trying to find someone who has to see what all you have to do? 😆 same man, just talking about it has me wanting some LSD so I can enjoy the trip. Sure you’ll have an easier time finding, it’s always hit or miss here. I’ve read where people have got off the dark web, I just feel I’d get ripped off or be talking to a Fed glow boy haha!

Yea idk about the dark web it seems shady, it’s just kind blowing to me that we want to make the homeless life as comfort and responsibility free as possible and then wonder why these people don’t want to change being homeless it’s just 🤦‍♂️. It’s sad what’s happened to San Francisco, it’s my favorite city and it’s just sad what’s happening. I try to vote and shit but only so much one person can do.

Turned into a literal dystopia man! Seen several interviews of homeless explaining what type of benefits, etc they get, basically ensuring they never wanna do better! Insane we can work out asses off, pay taxes upon taxes and struggle to live, while they basically throw money and drugs to the homeless, like it’s a Fucking vacation! I was watching Elon on Rogan talking about San Fran, saying that was a big reason he bought twitter, worried about the negative impact it was having on society as a whole and using San Francisco as a prime example. More disheartening to vote when you see it’s basically a waste anymore, sad as that is to say!

Yea I watch Rohan too sometimes, I’m a viewer from waaay back like 2014-15. I saw that, I’m not gonna take Elon Musk at his word because he is a liar though. Like idk if he is meaning to destroy twitter or he means to make it better but it’s having problems anyway. Do you know what I’m trying to say? Like I’m not convinced on what exactly Musk is trying to do with Twitter. I do agree that generally twitter is a cancer. It just brings out the worst in people it seems. I jumped off the social media ship years ago, this site is my social media kinda lol but I don’t actively engage on twitter, I never go on Facebook ever. I’ve never used Tik Tok cuz I’m not a sheep or 14. The benefits just aren’t really that good. Wbu?

What I smoking tonight:

Same here man, I started watching around the same time sporadically, then got way more into him when he started having a varying audience. Understand completely man, I still like him, but see the cracks in his veneer so to speak. Seen something on my news feed about him hiding accidents at SpaceX, amongst the many other controversies he’s been involved in, so definitely see where you’re coming from. I’ve got Facebook, but really use it for my business mostly, or to keep up w/friends who have moved away. Likewise don’t have twitter or TikTok, dead on description “sheep/14” 😆! At first social media was a somewhat good thing, bringing people together, now it seems nothing more than an echo chamber of your beliefs, where you’re encouraged to be divided, never get along, sad sad times man! Always perplexed me that people can’t just be civil anymore? For example I’m an independent, but right leaning on issues, while my best friend is bleeding heart liberal, not once have we had a falling out or even argue, can’t see why everyone can’t hear the other persons opinion? Granted my weed habit probably helps in being laid back lol, but still.

Is the dried resin a good high? I’ve got vapes, not sure I’ve ever had the actual resin. Same w/dabs, anything other than straight bud is hard as hell to come by around here. I just bought a half oz of bud, some kind of “supreme dream” or some shit…believe my guy just throws names to em sometimes to “church em up” 😆

It’s a polarized time. A time of chaos. That has bad things like the lack of civility but if we play this as a culture right I think some good can come out of the wars and the civil strife. I hope anyway and I’ll work towards it however I can.

I smoke vape now cuz of the convenience. The dried resin is the more expensive one. Instead of the thc being extracted and then put into some oil base it is the resin from the flower. I hope I’m getting this right lol, but it’s just like flower the high except it hits you faster and also stronger because of the concentrated nature of it. I don’t have live resin I have this which burn better on the higher voltage pen:

 

[Christopher Hitchens]

Dab Pen I’ve got. So good i dont really smoke flower much anymore.

Its crystal and there are two tiny crystal balls that spin around like those things that spin at the bottom of beakers in a chemistry lab.

I got it at the local smoke shop but here it is online:

Also the shatter that i will use:

What i noticed, i think oddly enough, that i smoke less when im dabing. Since its stronger you might think I’d need more 🤷

 

[hedgerow]

that's a lot of THC...you know less is more with this stuff, right?

Dude did you not read my comment? i said that i smoke less of this than flower. It is stronger so i can take less hits which is great and also because its the concentrate being vaporized its better than inhaling the smoke from flower 👍

yes i did read your comments, and i say again less is more

i had the same strategies when i switched from beer to wine to scotch...and that didn't work out too well for me in the long run...be careful is all i'm saying

Yea that would never work with an alcoholic, i know. I just drank bourbon or vodka though never beer. Its being going good for months and thanks for looking out dude, i am being careful. Another thing i do which i couldnt with the opiates or benzos is take breaks so my tolerance doesnt just go up and up. I do that with caffeine too and nicotine gum. I’m doing pretty good, alot better actually as I told you about.

have you told me your an heavy drinker before, im sorry if you did?

was a heavy drinker but no more...you should consider taking a 21 day break from MJ to re-set your tolerance...afterwards you could use one-tenth the amount and it would still be a better experience

 

[mrln]

i bought this almost 2 months ago and still have some left

and this also
