I ordered on sunady 1 z of master kush , it dosn't say sent and theres a few people complaining about this whats going down?? am i going to recive my pack today or am i getting scamed ?? i dont have the money for another.
I just cancelled and now waiting for my pack or a refund , I haven't got the money or time to mess about like this , first time it's happened tbh and I e had stuff off pontiff before no problem..... Shame I'll not be using again if this is the case.
Just so you know for future reference when an order has not been marked sent after 3 days it gets refunded
Going by an old post in "refund borg" from someone with a similar issue, 4 days. You may need to contact "refund borg" once it auto cancels. Then usually 24hrs after that apparently.
Hope this helps abit mate.
Hopefully all gets sorted asap 👍

Ordered on Thursday after 12 so expected on Saturday 2 zeds NDD , tracking says royal mail don't have the pack check back tomorrow . Have they even posted it ? No reply yet from vendor first time something like this has happened ?
got through to vendor and everythings sorted , its been sent out a day late through a mix up and i've been told i should be compensted a little too so i guess alls good just got to wait till mondy ......
Happened once out of many orders with Gaw, in my case, RM had failed to collect from drop off point.
Also used to regularly happen when I got stuff delivered to work with a Saturday ETA, as RM won't even attempt a weekend delivery to a commercial premises (in the area I was in at time)
I know it's easy for me to say, etc, but you're in safe hands here, they are the only seller I'd ever recommend if you wanted the best chance of next day.

You can't delete them, you'd have to ask clean up borg to do it. Btw that status always shows on GAWs tracking for some reason, usually until it gets scanned at the MC, well, assuming RM actually bother to scan it 😂

Whats with sellers marking packs sent when they don't send them out till the next day ???
exactly what it says on the Tin whats with this fookery?
Yeah, like Lycan said dude, pretty sure it's just an admin thing where it's packed or printed for order or whatever, as I've had that happen a couple of times and with people whose manifesto clearly stated I've missed the cut-off and it was actually shipped the next day (as I'd expect).
I used to love ordering the OG Kush from MKK2020 and he'd sometimes mark it sent after it had been delivered. In the end I just expected it.
Anyway, dude! It's been ages! How's things? Recent smoke highlights?

I had some nice blackberry kush from radar and Rainbow candy from the gentleman. I just ordered some blackberry nuggets from Radar today i think he changed his cut off time.. i hate wating an extra day and paying for NDD but i can't really complain the quality is bang on. Just me being me cos i hate waiting lol. I'm good rux Hows things your end?
Sounds good, other than the delay. Were/are they strong? I miss that OG Kush so much as it just seemed to cut through any tolerance and you'd know you had something in the stash for when you needed to sleep but you'd got up too late and/or your brain was in 2am overdrive, you know? Haven't found anything to replace it that's available regularly and in bulk.
Oh, remember ages ago when you said you'd smoke an oz a week when/if you could and I commiserated you on that, and the cost? Yeah, so that's more or less what I'm smoking now. So, other than working and hoping for a couple of extra shifts a month to offset that (or another cheeky pay rise request...), that's pretty much how things are on my end dude.
The WPFF hash RealD has at the moment is very tasty and potent. I'm favouring the Designer OG for getting both really high and stoned. The Orange Cannoli is very good too. Do you even like hash? I'm not sure how far down the rabbit hole we went, and I smoke shitloads, and it's been many, many months...

Yeah i started smoking hash before flower , Gentleman had some nice Pakistani Black in , took me back to the OG days in the 90's of squige black.
We must have discussed this. Yeah, flower didn't exist when I was a young smoker. This hash, however, is nothing like that hash. I'm sure it's fine getting 3g of brown powder regularly sent through the post, right...? I'm so baked right now and there's half a joint left, and I need to cook dinner...
If by brown powder your mean opioids... you do you bro but i don't touch anything but herbs and the legal stuff booze/ciggys.. seen a few people i know including my dads second cousin mess with that stuff and .. well you know the rest.
No, I mean the hash is a brown powder and could be interpreted in the way you have. Would be cooler if it was a chunk, like back in the day. Never touched the brown, man, and never will.
yeah one reason i try and stay away from smoking to much hash/concentrates It really messes your tolerance up too much.
Nice yeah the blackberry kush was strong good night time smoke , the candy was more a day time but was still potent . The kush was the reason i ordered the Blackberry nuggets coz its a cross of the blackberry kush and the description says its really potent so we will see in a few days. Yeah i blaze an ounce in a week but then i'll have a t break and maybe do that twice a month. i need to cut down to once a month really but i use it for anxiety and my autism so i don't really like going without it, But hey we can't all be snoop or B real :D

Some advice if you use dodgy film sites...
If looking for reliable sites, please use the r/piracy megathread on reddit. Many popular piracy sites have 100s of fakes going around that have malicious intentions, so it's important to ensure you're using the actual real one.
I also highly encourage the use of an ad blocker and VPN, just to keep your data collection to a minimum. These sites are already doing something illegal, so lord knows where the data they collect on you is going.
I've recently started torrenting instead of streaming online, which some argue is safer. Either way, always be careful on these types of sites.

Top advice, thanks! It was one of the reasons I loved Filmous- because it wasn’t free! They made their money so there was no spam and no scam and you could frequently top your account up on special deals. Generally I paid about 50p- £1 for a latest movie which you downloaded and could keep or share with others. I always said to those who thought I was mad to pay anything “..if I don’t want to pay a quid I probably don’t really want to see it that much in the first place!” 😝
Since my US based mate gave me access to his Plex server years ago I haven't paid for a single movie or series. Known him for over 20 years, we've never met, and I just message him if I want to watch something and within a short while (sometimes minutes) he's sorted it out. He constantly mocks me for asking him to get Dolby True HD / Atmos soundtrack stuff, and it's invariably a print with DTS HD MA instead. If I didn't have a Sonos Arc setup I wouldn't be so precious about it.
He had financial issues about 6 years ago and he posted publicly to ask if people that he'd given access to his server (numerous friends and close family) wouldn't mind chipping in to help with the running costs or he may not be able to keep it up. This was clearly something that he found incredibly hard to do, so I messaged him privately and asked him what he needed to keep it up and not worry about it. He said probably about $500 or so. I knew his PayPal so I just sent it to him. He was stunned, and took down his public post. Told me he was crying as he appreciated it so much. I told him he was a great friend and it was worth it, and I appreciated what he did for me. Haven't paid a penny since, and he's had 2 much better jobs since then. Recently had remote server issues (and Google Drive storage limit issues) so he's given me access to his personal home server. Told him I'm happy to chip in in future for expanded storage for all the 4K Dolby 7.1 he can keep getting me. Saved me a fortune over the years on streaming services alone.

You probably used Plex's server settings to do that. It's just a server he has at home (used to be a remote one with some Google Drive association, before they noticed people were doing shit like this and capped the storage) that's Plex is directed to, so he just shared the server info with me and I added that to my account. Now Plex just looks at that server instead of the previous one, and the experience and interface is exactly the same. It's something you could set up with a NAS and loads of drives to store and stream all of your media.
It is, isn't it? Really clean interface and nice to use. It's almost as neat as me just arriving in France with 2 chocolate bars and a cart from Poundland. 🥳
They fucking melted with the unexplained 4 hour Eurotunnel delay! But, just deformed. May be tricky to dose effectively now. Fuck it. Picked us out for extra customs checks too, but no-one cares about chocolate and carts, it seems...
Just had bull carpaccio followed by lobster with squid ink linguine, with a bottle of decent Cotes du Rhone to share. Couldn't face dessert. Going to get so fucking high on the balcony of the apartment overlooking the sea in a bit. More wine too.

The high life? The people on the balcony above me are eating dinner. It's nearly 22:30! In France! So fucking hot today that I nearly melted, so that's probably why. Now, if they were Spanish it would be early.
Anybody got any reliable movie sites including latest releases? I don’t mind paying if it’s cheap- I used filmous for 14 years (!) but it’s finally gone now because I think it was based in Russia (oops!)…
There's an android app and PC program called Sremio. I use to cast to my TV in place of Netflix. HDR works too when casting.
Great free very intuitive app.

On season 2 right now but back in the day when on TV I think I only got to around season 4. All I really remember is polar bears and mechanical sounding smoke chasing chumps through the jungle so it's like a fresh watch so far.
Remember when everyone talked about GoT constantly, loved it, never missed it? Then the last season happened and it was never mentioned again. Bear that in mind when you finish Lost.
Oh I know about how it ends. The purgatory thing in the church. Even back then hearing that seemed ridiculous and lazy.
Don't even get me started on Thrones. From some of the best TV going, to a steaming pile in a couple episodes.

What pissed me off about it was all of the time we'd invested with all of the mysteries of the island, the numbers, the smoke monster, the time travel, etc, etc. Watched all of the series again before a new series aired so we couldn't miss anything with the complex interwoven plot lines. Then it was what the internet predicted after the pilot episode all along, and almost everything was meaningless. In fact, typing this has made me a little angry just thinking about it again. Christian fucking Shepherd!! Such wasted opportunity.
If they'd bothered to do 1 more series of GoT and had George actively involved in the parts that he hadn't written yet it could have been a masterpiece. Barely put a foot wrong until the last series, then just flushed down the artistic toilet.

You’ll still get pop ups you’ll just have to cancel them by finding the “x” and pressing it .. they hide it inside the ads sometimes 😂 most the time it’s on the left corner of the ad.

Oops, forgot about ads etc.
The site works fine for me with almost no pop-ups at all because of the adblockers i've installed on my browser, and Tor for sites such as these.
Well worth it if you haven't got any installed.
edit: all free and available from the app store of your choice.

I don't get any popups but I do use an adblocker and my VPN has a built in one which may do a better job.
This site has been my go-to for the last year now. Rarely any downtime, got everything I watch on it and is regularly updated.

Kodi on firestick/Nvidia with a 1tb storage or PC. Seren & Real Debrid, or others if you don’t pay for a boss quality🪼
Just search firestick tricks, honestly so easy mate - Seren I use then pay a couple quid for Real Debrid (you can download from there aswell). Think Fen still has free ones tho 🤘🏼
I was wondering if someone can help me find a torrent or stream of a Norwegian show called "Dag," linked above, with English subtitles. I've read it's been on Sky in the UK before, and with English subs, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I want to watch it with the missus, who doesn't speak the language. If you find the subs it's a funny watch.
This looks good. My guy is on the case as he likes the look of it too. Hasn't let me down yet, no matter how old or obscure the things I ask him to get are. I'll ask him for the link when he manages it.
Is this what you are looking for? https://bflix.io/tv/dag-xrxoz
bflix is what I've used for years to stream they seem to have almost everything and has subtitles but no idea how good the subs will be

Just tried mate seems legit to me always need a way to keep them happy especially travelling etc 👍
just watch out some cartoons are adult anime make sure you know what they are watching . There is berzerk Ect also Heavy metal and other stuff like fritz the cat (Not good for kids) XD
I use Kimcartoon, however to prevent block ups, I need powerful adblock and ublock plugins. I believe this website to be similar.
Can't beat some King Of The Hill

Are disposable vapes getting banned UK?

Are disposable vapes getting banned UK?
The Daily Telegraph reported that the government is set to ban single-use vapes as early as next week to stop nicotine addiction among children. Asked about the reports this morning, the science and technology secretary said the government had been "looking into this"... What do you guys think doses this carry any weight??
They are chucked on the floor all over the gaff!
I’m no just stop oil kinda Apex, but these seem bad to be left around.
Vapes can be great for people coming off serious nico addictions, but then I always steer people to a big battery, tank and juice combo as much cheaper in long run

I would say it’s probably a good thing that teens won’t be getting as easily addicted to nicotine, however I do think adults should still be able to choose to put whatever they want in their body even if it’s not good for them, it’s a tricky one
Bullshit as usual. Overreach of a nanny state which is increasingly where we are heading. And people are asking for it as you can see because they have been conditioned to think that banning things is always the answer. Why not just force bland packaging as they did with tobacco?
Disposable vapes aren't a necessity. As apex points out you can get a box mod or rechargeable and fill the tank yourself. In London I see just as many school kids with disposable vapes as adults so there is a valid point there. Also the materials it's made from are indeed not very kind to the environment. I can't think of a single reason someone would need a disposable vape over a reusable one and it really is a mark of our throw away society and complete disregard for resources and recycling. I'm not an activist or anything but we all need to do our bit.
The environment and waste thing isn't really a very good argument for banning it if it's not even the reason they are giving.
I don't really recall proclaiming it was a necessity. But regardless, what logic makes it OK to ban something because it isn't a necessity? Ideology. That's exactly what.
What I was pointing out and asking is why is the answer to ban everything rather than encourage more responsible use or regulate the manufacturers to have standards for the waste and goddam it stop shops from selling them to kids.
They always use playing on people's general care for their children like this and it's getting nauseating that people continually fall into the trap.
Why should the convenience aspect be ruined for people who want to pay extra for that?
I spend 10 minutes doing my plastic and metal recycling once a week. Is that for nothing or are there things made of plastic and metal that can be recycled?
Getting to a place where the government is banning things rather than attempting to make the market behave more responsibly, we are ripe for some tyranny. Seriously.
Those of you sleepwalking through these times are pushing the rest of us that want our freedoms left alone off the edge of a cliff.
Meaning well is not all that's required here I'm afraid. The times are rather more serious than that.

But what would be likely to have more of an impact?
A) ask people to sell ethically, use and dispose ethically and hope for the best
B) remove the issue entirely
People can't be trusted, people selling things will generally place profits above morals, and walking to the bin would be more effort than throwing it on the floor and so we have literally millions thrown all over the place.
If there was a vote, id vote ban them all day long.
Having the freedom to vape is fine, having a disposable with more issues than tangible benefits is just illogical.

"People can't be trusted" as a rationale on it's own is too subjective and too facile in my opinion.
Without realising I think alot are becoming OK with authoritarianism.

People being untrustworthy is inherently objective and you can find examples of untrustworthy or unscrupulous individuals from the very start of recorded history. Conjecture is not a valid argument man.
People being untrustworthy is inherently objective and you can find examples of untrustworthy or unscrupulous individuals from the very start of recorded history. Conjecture is not a valid argument man.
Examples are not conclusion though. "People being untrustworthy is inherently objective" is a totally subjective statement, with only the limited examples you give as evidence. If you don't mind me saying, it's quite a bizarre, and typically schozoid way to view the world..
The examples you mention seem to be cherry picked to support your position rather than a wide ranging array of incontrovertible examples that humans can't be trusted with anything ever.
Again, the whole premise is a reductive perversion of what I see.
Saying I am making conjecture by not accepting a subjective statement like "humans can't be trusted" is in fact an objective statement does not make it so does it? It means that you and I have divergent opinions, not that your claim is correct because yoi provide a handful of examples and a statement about history which is no stronger argument than me telling you that I lost my wallet in LIDL carpark last week and somebody handed it in with all the money still there.
Britain came together and ended slavery without being forced. Is that the footprint of an untrustworthy species?

Also you are entitled to your own opinion, but the fact of the matter is people are liars, cheaters, thieves and generally have self interest at the top of their priority list. There are exceptions to the rule of course but even someone as lofty as old mother Theresa has been demonstrable found to be self interested and untrustworthy.
Slavery is not a matter of trust, but ethics at large. Speaking exclusively about trust are you able to give an example to demonstrate as a species we are honest and trustworthy? Do you have antivirus on your PC? Why if we are so wholesome?
Do you lock your door at night? Why?
Do you leave your wages lying on the street? Why?
I think you are just trying to argue for arguments sake, we are the least trustworthy species on the planet.

I am yes entitled to my opinion and trying to remain respectful so I'm not too sure why you are trying to act like I am being difficult because I totally disagree with your position and am willing to continue to tell you why.
You have claimed something is objective and I have simply demonstrated why it cannot be objective.
I am trying to argue for what I actually believe, and I find it hard to believe that humans are only as trustworthy as the least trustworthy human in existence, which is the narrative you are trying to portray as inarguable here. To me that seems not only erroneous but also an awful, miserable philosophy to live one's life by. It nearly guarantees that you won't enjoy most aspects of your life.
The nature of protecting yourself against bad consequences because you have something worth protecting does not mean that you trust nobody.
In my village, there is a farm and unmanned farm shop with an honesty box. Still there to this day and I and my neighbours use it regularly to get fresh eggs, fruit and veg. That's an anecdote..it supports my argument but it does not make me objectively correct does it? I think the truth is more complicated and grey than you are prepared to admit.
There's also a take one leave one book cabinet in the village centre. Yet to see anybody abuse it or set it on fire.
Your logic would naturally lead one to conclude that the existence of bad is proof of the non existence of good. We know that isn't true. That is genuine fringe thinking.

How about the XL Bully ban? Overreach of a nanny state? or only sensible action after so many brutal attacks?
Put them in plain collars maybe? Ask breeders to only sell to responsible people please?
Put them in plain collars maybe? Ask breeders to only sell to responsible people please?
I am no canine expert. But I have always believed that a dog is a result of it's environment over it's genes.
I have known some exceptionally placid and lovely rottweilers for example.
There have been 4 fatal XL bully attacks of a total 6 fatal dog attacks this year. The truth is they are responsible for a large percentage of fatal attacks.
Are you telling me you believe that is more down to the genetics or criminally negligent ownership of the breed?
If the former is substantially true, then a ban is probably just given the fatalities.
The wider point being, when did banning everything become our first port of call?
It's a beautiful test run for the social engineers and think tanks.
Watching them manipulate the Overton window amongst the oblivious whilst we all get wound up and divided over disposable vapes 😬.

It's a beautiful test run for the social engineers and think tanks.
Watching them manipulate the Overton window amongst the oblivious whilst we all get wound up and divided over disposable vapes 😬.
The temperament they have and damage they do is down to genetics. Just as hunting dogs are innately predisposed (I have pointers).
'Britain came together and ended slavery without being forced.'
Yeah what? It took William Wilberforce 20 years of campaigning within Parliament to end slave owning here - by way of a Govt ban. Then another 30 years to end it in the colonies, also by law.
Not every action of Govt is overreach in my view, as long as they remember who works for who.

Well I will concede that you have more dog knowledge than I, which is not difficult. But I'm not trying to die on the XL Bully Hill as much as the "ban everything I don't like" is not the answer hill.
So do you think taking 20 years of campaigning to ban a practice as old as time and as prevelant as slavery shows that we are inherently untrustworthy?
Seems a little bit like looking too hard for ideals in the past.
We were the first to do it and had absolutely no economic motivation to do so. It was a purely moral step to take and lots of rich, influential people had to be taken on to stop it.
CRT makes it easy to look at the slave trade through the lense that it started with the transatlantic one. Not true.

Waste is one of the reasons given by local councils.
Protecting children is another.
The plastic parts are recyclable - once collected, separated, cleaned of nicotine and the battery metals recovered. There's also the packaging, clearing empties from the streets and daily fires in landfills.
We're all on a site to buy illegal goods using our bitcoins, so not really blind sheep supporting a nanny state.
If markets could behave responsibly disposables wouldn't exist, and cigarettes would have gone 50 years ago. It's just about personal profits whilst the wider costs are on us.
My understanding is that disposables exist because tobacco funded lobbyists pushed for the 2ml limit which favours their replacement for the dwindling cig market. They just got outperformed by the Chinese.
Completely agree with you on the Online Safety Bill.

I think there is alot of validity to points made in your response.
I 100% disagree with you that banning totally is the right thing to do in most circumstances.
That is just asking for a nanny state and I don't understand how that is not obvious.
But...
Simply being on here does not make you immune to propaganda.
If you have seen the big thread about covid, it is very clear that many users here are absolutely sheep. Nasty, blind, gatekeepers wet dream type sheep. Present company excluded given we are having a sensible, enjoyable discussion right here.

Because they feel people can't be trusted to do the right thing annd most people cant , not everyone is as elevated as us Biggas :D
If you are right, we are facing certain state tyranny in the next 10 years. Likely that will mean that the type of government available is indistinguishable from the CCP.
This is probably supported by the "buildings energy performance bill" and "online safety bill" recently passed in Parliament without a whimper.

You're spot on here Ess. The over-reach is happening every day and no-one seems aware.
Did you see the gene-editing bill??!!
The "energy bill" will see you put out of your house, and much more.
Massive US style bills are being passed in the UK with so many vaguely defined terms (e.g. 'legal but harmful'), that can be defined later with Statutory instruments, passed by corrupt parliaments. Like they were doing through covid - putting instruments on the table at 9pm on a Sunday night when no-one was there to object.
Many thoughts are already illegal as our friend Eric Blair already knew would happen many years ago...

1984 bro even Tolkien predicted this shit he spoke about it at one of his dinners but he spoke in code. If you ever find it listen to it and think, Hobbits = common folk and wizards = politicians
True but then you still have to problem of waste and thats whats more important i feel.. But saying the main reason is kids is just not the case. It's so more people listen if they said it was just because of the waste then not as many people would care, I get how they work.
They are off their heads bro are they gonna ban fruit cider and flavored beers now also ?? i don't understand how they say its aimed at children just because of the flavours ...
The plan is to outlaw disposables, not fruit flavoured vape.
The waste is phenomenal, as is the take up from children, the strength is 2% by default which is considerably higher than most e-juices before the rules changed. Shockingly addictive
These problems were far less an issue with refillable vapes which didn't have pride of place behind every convenience shop counter at pocket money prices.

The waste alone is enough for me - more than enough.
I'd argue the same as anyone against banning vapour, but disposables can fcuk right off.

Totaly agree about the waste, My olds wont listen when i tell em to stop buying cheap lighters lol but hey if it cuts waste im all for it .
Seems adults aren't allowed to like sweet or fruity things. 😕 It was the same back when bottled vape juices became popular, anything other than tobacco flavour was decried as being targeted at children.
I get the waste/environmental impact side of it but can't agree with the rationale that naming them after sweets or having bright packaging means they're actually intended for children.
If so many underagers are buying them then surely there should be more of a focus on preventing those sales and imposing hefty penalties for any shopkeepers who get caught selling nicotine to kids?

Far more complex/time consuming and expensive to police corner shops than it is to ban them
Fair point, the usual lack of resources means they can't enforce existing rules so have to make new, even stricter ones to compensate.
agreed it seems too heavy handed maybe they don't have money in the companys like they do with beer and cigs??

Trainwreck , pineapple express or Purple Biscotti ?? wich is the strongest and wich would you pick and why ? i've already had the pineapple so i know how good it is XD
I'm intrigued by Trainwreck as apparently it's a very good example, so someone commented the other day. Haven't had any of them mate, unfortunately. The Pink Tuna is very nice, but with your level of smoking I'm not sure I should even mention it!
I really like Trainwreck, not had any for a while. The Purple Biscotti is probably the one I’d go for, sounds like an interesting strain.
yeah i was gonna stick to mids n lower for now higher lvls are for treats in henrys (Way outa my price range for Z's)
Tell me about it 😭 must have checked his page daily since he came back now 😂
His Grapescotti caught my attention couldn’t find any info online about it 🤔

its a grapes & cream x biscotti cross. Indica dom, very tasty. I'll have another smoke of it and the Coco Chanel over the next few days and throw up some descriptions
Bro i could blow stupid money on pontiffs gear ... *bruno mars millionair plays* everyones gotta have a dream though right ? XD
I got some more Pineapple.. But if anyone can shed any light on the other strains i would be greatful ..
Hey crow, I tried the blueberry muffin I think it was and it stunk of musky creamy blueberries.
Terps was of the blue variety with that musky cream in the back notes.
Not the best blue terps I’ve had but a strong mid for sure 👍

Whos got the regular UK bud for £180's a Oz ??
420 Buds is always a good shout. Usually around Thais mark for UK.
They have some good looking sunset sherbet at the moment.

MKK2020's OG Kush is the best bang for your buck bud on here! Me and my friends have gone through Oz's of it.
MKK2020 also confirmed that his OG Kush is a cross with Chemdog, that's were the dawg/diesel smell comes from. It also has a 23%+ THC content, extremely potent!

You’ve got many choices at this price point, MKK2020 has a very cheap OG Kush it’s good bang for buck has quite a dawg taste.
The Gentlemen Dealers have many affordable options now too I’d check out their menu 👍

2pac, pick any of his top 20 tracks. (Untill the end of time, hell razor, never had a friend like me, picture me rolling etc.)
I absolutely live and breathe 90s hiphop, so if I could start from the top, I'd probably go with GZA from the Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep and Pete Rock.

Big Daddy Kane. Absolute genius. Was your favourite rapper’s favourite rapper. ...but now probably your favourite rapper’s favourite rapper’s favourite rapper. 😂
Just diving in because it's a music thread and I'm crazy about music. That said I love all kinds from blues to classical, from jazz to opera, and of course hard rock, synth, pop, soul and everything else - apart from rap. The one music genre that does absolutely nothing for me. Bought the 12" of "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash when it was released and still have it. And that's pretty much where it started and then ended for me...apart from the Fugees doing "Killing Me Softly", but that's all about Lauryn Hill, which is another story.
Without question Tupac Shakur 🎤☭ a man who understood that the struggle of the proletariat didn't end with my manifesto, but merely found a sicker beat!
His lyrics on poverty, systemic oppression, and class warfare were essentially *Das Kapital* with a drum machine. Had he been born in 19th-century Prussia, I have no doubt we would have been co-authors — though I must admit, he had far better fashion sense than Engels and me combined.

Best place to buy bitcoin in UK
Best place to buy in UK I currently use Bittylicous. Thanks in advance for any reply Biggas. Bless up.
Never had an issue using this site dude. Transfer, don't buy. Make sure it's under £1k too, as that a flag limit.
Up until recently I was using coinbase/coinbase wallet.
Persistent issues/frustations with transactions, specifically buying the bitcoin then having to transfer to the wallet then having to deal with the "we don't support this crypto" and ending up with coinbase wrapped bitcoin that I now can't access or transfer back...
Long story short, I'm now using Trust.
Still had to do the whole FCA questionnaire for crypto investing and wait 24hrs before I could purchase but....
Single app, buy bitcoin with Apple Pay, minimal fees and whole transaction (including LB) takes less than 20 minutes.
Genuinely don't know why it took me so long to switch...

I keep having to contact my bank to pay last time I was on the phone over 4 hours to get it sorted so the payment went through, I'm with loyds and it keeps flagging for fraud.
Absolute pain in the balls mate. Gotta say been using crypto for about 10 years or so on the dark Web, but never been asked to contact the bank. Ive had problems at times but thats just f'kin mental
Kraken is great they are against kyc so probably the least likely to overextend the powers given.
Unlike revolut that has decided my walled is "unsupported" which basically means we are massive grasses and we know this is a naughty wallet. Fuck revolut.

Best Flower on LB
Where is the best flower on LB? Everything is so fresh and smelling like hay on here yet to have anything that actually smells or tastes good someone point me in the right direction
The best flower on here that I've tried is from the likes of British Bulldog and Druids Magic, who are amazing local growers. Their stock is very limited and you gotta keep your eyes peeled to get in on it. I've heard good things about Keep It Green who is also a local grower, but I haven't tried their weed yet. He seems to have stock available now, so I'd check him out. Best of luck mate
I second that, Druids Magic have fantastic stuff but you gotta be quick! Haven’t had the pleasure of trying BB’s wares yet, Keep it Green also have banging weed.
If you're smoking 7g/day you should stay away from Piff, dude... especially the Pink Tuna. It's very moreish.
bro i don't smoke all month i have a Z then a week or two break n get another XD wish i had money for a Q a day :D , and i had to get some pineapple Express .. never had any before just got to wait till wed for it :/ .. i hate waiting lol
Ha, fair enough. I just noticed you saying the amount a few days ago and it blew my mind, but didn't comment for whatever reason. I'm averaging about 1/2oz a week / 2g a day again and that's roughly 8 joints a day. I genuinely physically couldn't smoke the amount you do, even if it's just condensed in timeframe. You're an absolute machine mate.
well if you smoked everyday for 24 years .. i used to do 10 buckets before collage somedays XD ... its not good though .. messes your tolerance up ... most of the time when i first get a Z i'll chain like 2 or 3 jays lol ... again not good but least i enjoy my self .. i really wanna meet snoop and willie see if i can keep up XD
I've smoked every day (with a break near the end) for 27 years and that was my limit when I quit for 6 1/2 years. Back up to the same tolerance within about 3 months of starting back in January, and I was a drooling mess from one joint of Cherry Sherbet from Riley when I started back. That was amazing.
If you enjoy yourself, and it works, then it's all good. Saw Snoop live at Live 8 and I said to my dad, "fuck, I wish I'd brought a joint!" and he just grinned at me. I wonder which of you 3 would be left standing? My money would have been on Willie, but he's 90 now, and has emphysema. I'm going to listen to Always On My Mind on Spotify...

Would recommend Riley packs, the gentleman dealers and pontiff of piff , also if real d ever restocks the skittles/shake it’s well worth a buy imo
Shameless plug but I feel the Pink Tuna is up there. Definitely doesn't smell like hay, its absolute gas!

What is the best DIY bong?
we once used a drinking fountin bottle, a speaker grill (for gauze) and pulled it in a m8's bath ...lmao
+ 3 more
Holy shit! Did that in school 15+ years ago. Do kids even have pens at school anymore!?!?!
I bought a device on eBay that screws onto almost any bottle, turning it into a bong. When the bong water gets nasty just throw the bottle away and attach it to a new bottle. It's not completely DIY but it still has some merit nonetheless. Besides, nobody likes dealing with bong water and it's easier to hide when compared to a regular bong.
where were you . Back in the day I remember so many times we could have used this. why didnt we ever think of this. lol.. love it. thankyou
When we were little the wikihow salesman used to come door to door with books like this
That they would sell newer versions of there Bong every few months. That cost more then the last one and has miner improvements. Auto makers found it didn't work for them but it has worked for Apple
Cut the bottom off a 2 litre bottle of pop, stick it in a bucket of water, use a milk bottle foil cap to to make a cap and fill with weed. Light it and pull up. Make sure you press down as you inhale.
Ahhh the old bucket method. Takes me back to the 90s that one!
We used to do these with a cheap bottle of pop from Kwik Save, a foil KitKat wrapper, and then go to the local park and subtlely make use of the penny wish fountain!
The good old days! 😂😂
Cheers BB 😊👍

Haha awesome
Try, a 500 ML soda bottle + a few inches of garden hose + cake icing socket... voila !! Homemade shotgun bong

The bottle and small pipe combo is the most quality and convenience I have ever had the high honor to imbibe.
You take a real simple weed pipe, metal or glass, and stick it in the mouth of the bottle.
If the bottle is plastic use any sharp object to stick a hole at the base.
Hold the bottle horizontally, put a straw in that hole and prepare for a monstrosity of a hit.
If it's a glass bottle you need something super sharp for the hole at the bottom, the tip of a strong knife or an ice pick does the job easily.
Water is optional, you don't need and its hard to balance. The best part of this is no cleanup, chuck the bottle when you are done, imagine a bong with a disposable chamber, that's what you got now bro.

I think what you have there is a DIY steam roller, I had one of these and loved it, yes water is totally optional its the expansion that does the magic and water is almost guaranteed to make a mess.

My special skill is that I can McGyver a bong out of almost anything.
Basically, as long as you have tin foil you can do anything. Make pipes: a few wraps, tight around a pencil, seal with scotchtape lengthways. Fan out the end before doing so. Tear a circle of tinfoil, and a pin ("anyone wearing a badge?"), open the back page of an unloved book, place the foil on the paper, and tap the pin up and down repeatedly and you have a perfectly serviceable gauze that you can poke in the end of your fanned pipe.
I prefer not to smoke out of anything plastic. Just seems like we know not to burn plastic in the outdoors, so keep that shit away from your lungs, right?
Fruit has always been a friend for the thrown together party bong. Watermelon is obviously beautifully carvable. Always thought a papaya, with its natural internal chamber and a couple of pipes would probably be viable. Poke holes into the fruit with a screwdriver or, if you don't have one, a pencil or pen.
Finally, you can make an incredible ice bong, but it's a faff. Get two barbeque skewers. Place them in a pint glass, of water with the ends 10cm from the bottom of the glass. I made an inverted kind of A frame with some tinfoil to hold them. If you do the same, keep the crossbar out of the water. Freeze the glass.
Boil the kettle. Use a combination of twisting and pulling to extract the metal skewers. Then, tilt so that one side is facing down over a sink and slowly pour boiling water into the holes. Eventually, you'll have a bong. Make a tin foil gauze. Smoke like a muthafking champion.

Bag bong-get a 2 litre pop bottle cut bottom of,then attach a pedal bin bag to the bottom where its cut of with tape,then attach a length of string to the bottom of the bag so you can pull it to draw the smoke in,then cut a hole in the cap and make a bowl with some foil,put holes in with a pin-done.
Put your choice of cannabis in the bowl when lighting it have your foot on the string and pull up,the smoke will enter the bottle as the bag is drawn out.
Unscrew the lid and inhale ALL the smoke,hold,then blow it back in and pull on the string again so it fills up again,repeat until all the smoke is gone.
You will be high as fuck.
Some call these a lung.

We made a coconut one once, didn't last long.
My goto was
Plastic Plumbing down pipe
Aerosol can lid that fitted snugly.
Bluetack or silicone around the base to help keep it airtight
Electrical tape on the outside at the top of the can lid, again to keep airtight
Copper plumbing pipe, with a connector on the end for the bowl.
Made a hole in the plumbing tube, heated up with a lighter, you can push the copper tube through.
More bluetack/ tape or silicone around that area so it was airtight.
Rush hole about an inch above and to the side.
Finally name it, we always called them Billy.

Made a hole in the plumbing tube, heated up with a lighter, you can push the copper tube through.
More bluetack/ tape or silicone around that area so it was airtight.
Rush hole about an inch above and to the side.
Finally name it, we always called them Billy.
All items provided by grandparents garages!
Someone should get on to Carlsberg. Currently, Carlsberg don't make bongs but if they did, they'd probably be the best bongs in the world
Small Fanta bottle, they're already the right shape. Lighter to make holes on front and back in the right places for a rush/carb and a downpipe. Then use a bit of garden hose for downpipe with a bit off a socket set in the end to use as a cylinder cone. Then either a circle cutting from the metal gauze in a coffee percolator as a screen, or a piece of foil with some pin holes in, or just a small ball of foil. Schmoke it up in style, all for the price of a small bottle of Fanta. 💚💦
The simplest bong/pipe I made was a used can of coke.Dent the can enough to rest weed on and put pinholes in it, simples!
Some of my favourite emergency methods...and I consider myself a bit of an expert...
Pop a L shape hole through an apple, carrott or similar using a kebab stick, scoop out a cone with your fingernail. Chuff away.
"Pin ups" Flip a badge on it's back stick a lump of hash on it, ignite and stick any glass over the top. Slide the glass to the edge of a table and suck the cooled contents out of the gap.
Bamboo Bong - Made by Thai locals in seconds with a couple of swipes of a machete. Scoop some water from a stream and your off.
Papaya stem (hollow with a coney end) straight into a cola bottle seal the neck with your lips and finger. Hey presto. Indonesian bong.

Items page not loading but loads on little biggy dot org .... Are they fixing something on society??
There was a problem with this on Society a couple of months ago mate, but I thought it'd been resolved. Clearly not. There's a thread somewhere where they were asking for device and browser information to try to narrow down the issue.
Any Idea where the post is bro and I'm using tor like a good little bigga .. funny thing is it was working at the beginning of last month when I ordered my last drop from radar.
No idea, sorry dude. I've had a look but I can't find it. You know how things appear and disappear on here.

PISTACH is a SCAMMER!
only ever ordered once from the guy sent me bud screwed up into a ball and vac packed to death ... the bud was shit 2
PISTACH is a SCAMMER!
The seller PISTACH is clearing attempting to scam their customers, they lie about posting orders (proof from tons of customers) then admit that they haven't then claim they just sent it but once again they're lying and the cycle repeats. During all of this PISTACH is just ignoring their customers messages and attempting to not complete orders openly. Pistach is nothing more than lowlife scumbag scammer avoid. AVOID PISTACH!
Thought everybody knew he was a scammed by now. He had "potential fraud" marked on his page about a year ago in bold red writing.
It’s sad how people like this are still allowed to be on the items page and the small ones are just chucked away right to the bottom of the page.

It has to be MF DOOM. He died recently but the way this dude puts words together and fucks with the ryhme scheme is other-worldy. RIP DOOM
Two albums define the 90s for me. Exile on coldharbour lane - Alabama 3. You owe it to yourself to listen to this
Also Dummy by portishead, but only if I'm feeling low.

Faithless - Sunday 8PM
Limp Bizkit - Chocolate Starfish

My personal favourite musical decade. The decade where I really found myself musically.
God thinking back I had/have some eclectic tastes.... used to listen to allsorts from studenty indie bands such as Carter Usm through hip hop (nwa, dre, wu tang etc) laid back shiz like massive attack, Portishead through to happy hardcore, gabba techno & jungle
Saw out the late 90's bouncing from club to club with a house, hard house, trance & techno soundtrack to my life (which only ended in the past decade or so 😀)

Mate, this reads like I wrote it! I’m was (and still am!) a huge Carter fan! Proper tuned me in to the world, their lyrics still stand strong now. Got me socially aware and into hip hop, then I got into the tail end of the rave/club scene. Onto trip hop,and the 00’s indie scene a bit. Listen to mostly 90s hip hop and industrial stuff now!
Prince.
I was so obsessed when i was younger i even had the leather jacket with the symbol on the back.
Still love the music but luckily the dress sense has improved a bit!
Anyone who thinks Bruno Mars is ground breaking (and i think his music is great by the way) needs to stick a few Prince albums from the late 80's and 90's on. Gives a very clear idea where he gets his "thing" from.
Cheers BB

Gotta have house music!
As the 90's started I'll admit to being into American Rock artists like Motley Crue, Poison, Ratt and Kiss. Also liked a bitta Journey, Night Ranger, REO Speedwagon. Still have a lot of my tapes and records from back in the day. I've converted one room into a Music room. Got a tape deck, turntable, CD and MP3 player all wired into a decent set of speakers. But back to the 90's.
Must have been summer 92 that I went to my first rave. I live in NI so we those that are fimilar with things will remember Kellys in Portrush. Spent many saturday nights dancing to some amazing house music. Some epic tunes by artists who'se names I never did get, to loved up to care! As long as there was a big beat, piano break, hands in the air we didn't care. #goodtimes

I grew up in the '90s and it was the age when I really discovered music. I still listen to a ton of '90s music. I think for me hip hop peaked in the '90s - Enter the Wu Tang, The Chronic, Illmatic, Ready to Die...I could go on.
I saw Leftism get a mention earlier in the thread, what an amazing album, still holds up today. I saw them live a few times and they were always great, a real shame they didn't put out more music. I know Leftfield technically still exists but it's not the same.

A great decade for punk / hardcore. Fugazi. Gorilla Biscuits. Rollins, before he disappeared up his own arse. Sweaty gigs in tiny venues. I miss those days.
Dean Koontz! he wrote a novel that very much matches whats going on in the world today, with the current affairs involved in virology etc
cant think the name from the top of my head, i will be back here with the name :D

Early Nineties I started working, then living in London and I loved pirate radio. UKG and Jungle, served up with a proper attitude, while having a right laugh.
Cruising round Essex & Easts in a Renault 5 turbo with 3 mates squeezed in the back, chatting shit about who makes the best/worst spliff.
Before I moved abroad I recorded hours of it, but lost the tapes (lol) along the way.
Hey-ho... (more like "oi-oi", yeah?)

Born in the 70s . I suppose the 80s rock played a big part.
Altho prodigy was epic in the 90s

Gotta be house/ trance. My favourite tune which gives me goosebumps is Silence by Delerium, I love the strong female vocals
In the early to mid 90's I loved nothing more than a night of bouncing, banging techno, followed by Marley/Floyd type of thing as I eased down the next day.
*DTB shivers while recalling those next days*
Changed lots over the years and is now trip hop with a jazz angle, classical & opera, Cash, Floyd, Zeppelin, Fleetwood, Dylan, and a bit of Postmodern Jukebox if I feel like dreaming about sharing my life with Haley Reinhart.

Good to see clean up Borg join in with this. I’m sure you AI have developed sentience 😂 all good with me
Cartman is hilarious. South Park is the only thing I’ve loved since it started and still watch now at 42. We should start a Cartman clip thread.
One of the things I love about lb is its a race free zone. You can say you are color blind IRL but here its an existenital condition.
Oh yes!! ....and Monty Python also wrote possibly the greatest love song of all time :) (not entirely sure it would qualify as an LB theme tune though....end credits though, maybe) :)
I'm putting forward this infectious little number...'In Hell I'll Be In Good Company' by The Dead South :)
Eminem ft Royce bad meets evil haha. The chorus is what nails it for me.

The First Anarchist
Chaos is the all powerful force of nature why is it a bad thing ?
![[crypto freedom]](https://i3.littlebiggy.org/images/u/w/800/UzSoUyEdCnefNkdW.gif)
The First Anarchist
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon was a 19th century French politician that was the 1st person to declare themselves an anarchist. His basic message was to stop fighting the state and simply ignore it.
My bigga.
My bigga.
It's a shame that anarchy has been conflated with chaos instead of free and voluntary association.
It wasn't do nothing. He proposed a mutualist economy compete with the capitalist one, what Lenin would later appropriate as dual power, to eventually subsume it. In practice, it is questionable if he even was an anarcho; he sat in parliament, was against strikes and revolutions, and advocated for money in the form of labour vouchers.

Mass murder; centuries of child abuse, financial manipulation of countries and its peoples, stifling science for centuries, masses of lies and corruption, manipulating the world, controlling the weak minded, instilling a ridiculous morality onto its followers that only incites hatred and misery
The catholic churuch is just the greatest group of criminals to ever exist
God I’m so proud to be catholic 😂

You forgot to include wealthiest, if the Roman Catholic Church realised all it's assets then they could probably eradicate world poverty in a year
All Abrahamic religions are backwards and immoral, imo.
Christian god Genocided the whole planet to prove a point, and the Muslim Prophet, well, look up the age of Aisha when he married her.
We no longer need religion, its just a tool to distract and divide people.

The Catholics needed a pedant on their side not a pendant. Taken literally this position gets a lot easier to defend.
All religions no matter what are just man made ideas and a collection of stories. Stories that were spoken often over a drink and made into whatever you made up round a fire. People needed controlling with a certain fear thousands of years ago and needed a divine leader. I'm uncomfortable with it all. It's all just made up. And to think it is the basis of all wars, man made ideology. Bad work I say
I'm not sure trying to peg any organisation as objectively good or bad is possible, but also fuck the Catholic Church and all they are.
laugh all you like but the basic philosophy of jesus is love and that is exactly what the world needs.
Yet his loudest followers scream at women at abortion clinics, promote violence towards gay people and basically act like 15th century bigots with torches
Doesn’t sound very loving to me, sounds more like a relationship with Ike Turner
Jesus spoke beautiful words but they’ve been twisted and manipulated to spread hate not love by the loudest “believers” as evidenced in every evil act done in the name of Jesus or Christianity
I’m gonna stick to worshipping the truest deity known to man- our lady and saviour MARY JANE 🤣

When have God fearers and followers of jesus christ ever attacked anyone, gay or straight?
God is not democratic or wavering in any way, its his way or the burning pits for eternity he mentions he is a jealous God and if you are two minded then you are not with him
Objectively for its merit orthadox Christianity seems like a good guide to me. The scope of practicing virtue and aiming to overcome vices and sin I can't really think of a more noble cause. I think it's definitely not for the feint hearted and seems we're in an age of hedonism with little to no solid, tangible spiritual values.
Living to a higher power or God has a drastic effect on people in the relms of recovery and elsewhere. I am coming to terms with it as it as a path over the self and see great oppertunity with aligning ones values for a greater purpose and in vitro achieving one's own potential while on this earth.

Probably the most original and though through answer. I myself know God exist but even if he didn't and I just thought he did, everything the bible teaches about morals and character has made me a better person and it does the same with anyone who follows the teachings of jesus christ. Jesus only had 12 disciples and it says in the bible following jesus will lead to ridicule and struggle. Earth is Satan's playground and we are vastly out numbered but when all returns to dust only almighty God will remain.
And saying the church and its various denominations are a true representation of God and all who follow is the same as saying jihadist and the taliban are a true representation of all Muslims and all who follows Islam.

Jesus as philosopher is undeniably legit. And surely in touch with what humans can agree upon as holy (love).
Beyond that shit can get insulting, even offensive at times.
Beyond that shit can get insulting, even offensive at times.
Let's have a look at bit of history:
1) Reconquista of Spain - overcame the previous more liberal Islamic Al-Andalus. Explusion of Jews & Muslims
2) The cultural rape of the Americas - effectively extinguishing the native way of life
3) All of those European wars which were pretty much Catholics vs Prods (Prods as bad as Catholics in this case)
4) More recently - at a time of AIDs and other STDs saying use of condoms 'evil'.
5) Messing up the psyche of its followers by seeing sex as dirty
6) A great place to work as a preist if you don't like adult women and prefer to have sex with under age boys and girls.

If I were a smart man I’d have worded my reply this well haha
Love use of such modern issues caused by the church, generally people seem to think the evil they’ve done is centuries ago, but there’s so much in modern history; in living memory that prevents catholism from ever being objectively “good”

I don't think I've ever heard or seen Widdicombe and not immediately wanted to scrape my eyes out and shove dynamite in my ears.
What a horrificly horrible and hateful person she is. Eugh
What a horrificly horrible and hateful person she is. Eugh
I don't like Anne Widdecombe at all, but from what I remember from this debate (I watched it a few years ago) she switched from Christianity to Catholoisim because of the amount of hypocrisy in the C of E.
Now don't even get me started on the hypocrisy in the Catholic Church, but I must admit I do somewhat sympathise with the point she was making.
You can't have a religion based upon a book that says "we don't agree with homosexuality" then just ignore that view because it's no longer popular.
It's like the Christian Church is now willing to ignore any of its doctrines just to remain "relevant", and get some likes on Twitter.
If you're going to be a bigoted religion, at least own it.
I'm not really into arguing about religion or politics, and I'm neither religious nor particularly political, but I do have to admit a begrudging respect for any religion that at least sticks by it's dogmatic roots, however ridiculous those roots are.
That's pretty much all I got from Widdicombe that was worth thinking about.
The rest of her nonsense....isn't worth anyone's time.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

All versions of Christianity ignore some parts of the bible because it's not popular. The Bible says not to wear two different types of fabric at once, and to sell your daughter to her rapist, but no Christians are abiding by that. They are all as bad as each other, to pretend like she's calling out hypocrisy by changing from one hateful religion to another is so deceitful, another part of the reason she is scum.
Dunno if you ever saw her debating with Stephen Fry and I think Chris Hitchins or possibly Jordan Peterson at Oxford? Between them they gave her the best fucking she's ever had
Didn't your mother ever teach you, if you have nothing good to say keep your mouth shut.
Im pretty sure that its impossible for anyone to create an image of god that is without its shadow, although i have much love for the doctrines of christ i do feel that perhaps the demons, antichrists etc are an artifact of the premise and not independently existent.
Already seen this you don't want to know my take as a Satanic/pagan Witch/warlock ... But i agree with stephen about most things. The part i can't stomach is that The church brag (Or used to) about their il educated followers from africa.. one reason why i returned to the ways of my old english ancestors.. in all things balance and respect for nature and our home.. Ave Lucifer the light bringer and Giver of knowlage .. Ave lilith mother of all witches and reflection of the black sun.

Well that all sounds pretty knowlagabel to me.

XD lucifer before the bible... In Roman folklore, Lucifer was the name of the planet Venus, Also worshiped as a wisdom god.
Is spelling and grammar not a part of "wisdom and knowledge?" (or knowlage)

this explans it better https://partiallyexaminedlife.com/2020/02/25/lucifer-how-a-decent-deity-got-a-bad-rap-part-1/ and i was never very good at eather of those i was always more creative. XD i'll be the first one to admit i can't spell and my grammer since the net has gone to pot ... XD
There's nothing wrong with having limited spelling and grammar buddy, but I struggle to understand why you would come on here claiming "wisdom and knowledge" given to you by some dark force when you can't even spell the words properly....
I know nothing about open heart surgery, so I'm not going to claim I have "specialism in the field" when it's very clear I don't.
Wisdom has nothing to do with education, but to claim you have wisdom AND knowledge, because you worship the devil...
Yet you can't even spell 'knowledge'...
Sorry. But that needed to be called out.
Spelling and grammar are nothing. Manners maketh the man.
All the best and like I say, each to their own just please don't claim to have superiority in wisdom and knowledge by worshiping anyone, least of all the devil and witches.
Cheers BB

i don't worship any deity i work with them and i never claimed they gave me anything. the last part of what i said was just Veting or honouring the witch king and queen ( the male and female aspects of nature) i never claimed anything...
Fair enough buddy, sorry if I got the wrong end of the stick.
All the best ❤️

No problem BB also Keats and Einstein (sry for the spelling) couldn't spell so saying somone is not wise because they can't spell i feel is redundant. i guess what im trying to say even the dumbest of us can be wise. I mean even the dimist of sparks like myself still puts out a little light :)
Now you're making me feel bad. 😔 Sorry. I do post derogatory shit sometimes when I'm awake late.
You keep doing your thing buddy if it makes you happy.
Much love to you. ❤️

same G we are not perfect only human after all eh ? :) And i will, I feel what ever faith or not anyone follows if it makes them a better person it can only be a good thing right ? ... i just feel some where along the path people started to use it for control and not to help and heal..
the word Devil means adversary... Rowling XD are you another one of those magic is the work of the devil hacks??

I've been off around 9-10 days now and looking at another 2 weeks.
Easy peasy, it gets easier and easier each time you get off it believe me.
I suffer no real sweats now and can sleep no problem and feel pretty good too.
This time has been the easiest yet just keep yourself busy and try focusing on others, use the time to get things done.
Getting up early helps too, catch the morning sun.👍
Music is a great healer and this ones for you my friends and when we get back we ain't gonna need $40 a gram hash to get high, all we're gonna need is a puff or two of some regular and if you do choose the extortionate stuff on your return be careful!😁
I'll probably go with some $23 a gram iso hash and end up on the floor after a single skinner.
Could buy myself a g or two now but no point really especially Christmas coming up.
Be well out there and enjoy the real dopamine God gave us to get by with in this nasty cruel world we live in now.

I very impressed with your choice in music, i played guitar 10 years but it just sits here now.
Rest easy.👍

True bro , I'm still gonna burn three zs a month plus I have like a week off and other than not getting much sleep(I have ADHD and autism) I don't get sweats and like you said the more T breaks you take the easier it becomes.. although tbh I only take them because of money .. it cuts my anxiety and allows me to focus I'd be high 24/7 if I could be.

Any book readers in here?
Baked last weekend with time to kill, decided to top it off by popping an edible or two and started re-reading Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Well... Suffice to say that I'm still thinking about it.
Metro 2033 was an interesting read while stoned, as was World War Z, I am legend, The Road, and the brilliant Children Of Men.
I will say, though, that reading Rosemary's Baby high left a very strange feeling in my heart. Like I truly have no idea what's happening just next door from me.
Y'all got any recommendations? Reading Lord of The Rings currently, then have a few philosophy & history books lined up.

i can't read books high as the words don't go in, and i find it amazing that anyone can!
but here are a couple of recommendations:
- mason & dixon, by thomas pynchon. possibly my favourite novel, and i recently finished a fourth or fifth reading of it.
- ways of being, by james bridle. fascinating book about AI, climate change, computing, and how we humans relate to (or fail to relate to) the non-human world.

oh good tip! and nice to know i'm not the only one who can't read when high.
i'm kinda resistant to audio books for some reason (i think podcasts fill that gap for me).
any favourite audiobook recommendations?

oh yeah I'm the same - can't really enjoy books stoned! Audio books are a good idea :)
Thomas Pynchon is such a good writer. My personal favourite is Gravity's Rainbow. Pretty sure that he would write a lot of his work completely high to help him get into the characters' heads...and then edit it sober. Which isn't a bad process. It's probably how he came up with a guy who's have sex when a missile falls, so they use his erection as an early warning system ;). Also a long, phantasmagorical trip down a toilet.

Seriously they are great and once you read them you understand why the name and stories haven’t disappeared enjoy !!!
Joe Abercrombie is my current favourite author. Kind of grim fantasy.
He builds characters so well you feel like you know them. Start with the First Law trilogy or The Heroes if you just want to dip your toe in.
If you prefer audiobooks the narrator who reads for him, Steven Pacey, is awesome. I didn't like audiobooks at all before listening to him

Hi there, I fulfilled a life goal (sadly it took a spine injury which is why I smoke so much lol) by collecting and reading every single Terry Pratchett book, namely the Discworld series, in order ofc lol. Described Like Lord of the Rings, but with comedy.
The early few books he's still finding his feet in the world he creates imo but soon it becomes a wonderfully weaved web of hilarity and a comparison of the real world and his own.
Theres also something for everyone, i personally like the "Guards" series following the careers of the officers there.
So many but a random quote without even checking.
"It's impossible to get through the day without committing some kind of crime, unless of course you stand all day in a dark basement.
But even then, you're probalbly guilty of loitering"
Theres a Wizards side, a Witches side, Trolls who get more intelligent the colder they get and DEATH, who really likes curry, and has a daughter.
I discovered this series over 20 years ago and now, read them all several times, have a peruse, theres something for everyone and all 40 odd books can be read individually or in sections

Bram stokers dracula , Dune by frank herbert ,anything by philip k Dick .. Gileads blood by Dan abnett.
If you like fantasy that doesn't take itself too seriously, anything by Joe Abercrombie. I've just finished his latest ' The Devils' and blew through it in a week, it's fantastic.
A couple of books I've really enjoyed reading while stoned are,
Jerusalem by Alan Moore.
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.
Jerusalem in particular opened doors to other realms, time, the Universe and our place within it that have never closed.

Anything Jeff Noon. Start with Vurt though. Falling Out Of Cars is my favourite by him.
Thoroughly depressing dystopian shit, all set in a future Manchester.
It’s great. If you haven’t read Jeff. Read him immediately. It’s so bleak it totally cheers you up.
Automated Alice.
He rewrote Alice In Wonderland the minute it was out of copyright. Set it in Manchester. In the future. Published that shit.
You have to read Vurt and Pollen first, or it’s just nonsense. 🤣
Aldous Huxley.
Ol’ Bull Lee, Hunter S.
Foucault
Ol’ Palahniuk
Carl Sagan
Trainspotting. Irvine Welsh. It’s kinda Nirvana the band, in book form.
The Bridge. Ian Banks. Wasp Factory if you haven’t read it. Espedair Street is a great book also.
Lanark. Alasdair Grey.
Only Forward/Spares. Michael Marshall Smith.
Underrated books, that guy writes, if you like fun books to read.
Keats. Yeats. Byron. Pinter. Meadows. Morrissey. Mark E Smith. Linton Kwesi Johnson. The poetry of people like Mike Skinner and the master, John Cooper Clarke.
Dickens
HP Lovecraft.
John Lydon.
Kevin Shields.
Not books. Sorry.
Illuminatus!, Cosmic Trigger. Robert Anton Wilson. Carlos Casteneda. Because sometimes you want the bollocks to be true. Bit of Church of The Subgenius. Our captain and saviour. Roberto Dobbs.
Terence McKenna. Food of The Gods.
That’s a book.
Desmond Morris. Errol Morris
Alesdair Crowley. And yes. Jimmy Page did buy his Scottish retreat.
Look into that one. It’s a deep, interesting rabbit hole.
Allen Ginsberg, Tom Wolfe, Jack (Daniels) Kerouac.
Anais Nin
Henry Miller.
Sexytime.
Bill Gibson. Alan Moore. Alan Martin. Bill Drummond.
I’ve given you enough to be getting on with. I wish I could be reading all of that shit for the first time.
Don’t read any of these books or authors. They are a big part of why I’m so dysfunctional.
They do all cut through the bullshit kinda nicely. If you are open to it.

A few of my absolute favourites:
A Confederacy of Dunces - by John Kennedy Toole
Darkness at Noon - by Arthur Koestler
Stoner - by John Edward Williams
(haha not our kind, it's the character's name)
Blood Meridian - by Cormac McCarthy
The Master and Margarita - by Mikhail Bulgakov
All of these books have become important parts of me ever since I read them :)
For non fiction:
Neurosis and Human Growth - by Karen Horney
^ this helped me out in a tough time! Really interesting re human psychology.

It has been a while since I have been able to sit and enjoy a book. Please send me the motivation to do so
I can't read while high, and can't read while drunk. Just don't remember the next day what I've read. I've read LOTR so many times I pretty much know it by heart. Charles Bukowski and Jack Kerouac are obvious choices. You have Cormac McCarthy in there. Blood Meridian will fry your brain as will any of his earliest books. Then read the Border Trilogy. Anything by WG Sebald is a trip. Journey to the End of the Night by Celine. And if you truly want to go down the dark route read HP Lovecraft.
I simply love Papillon.
Its a brilliant read and a rip snorting adventure.
The old man of the sea is another great read. Firm favourite.
Moby Dick and the white whale is sooo worth it. Its a huge undertaking but when approached in the right atate of mind its a hugely rewarding read. Brilliant travel or sickness/recovery companion.
Shantaram has deservedly popped up on this topic quite a few times. Good read. Especially if you are wary of dogs......
Enjoy all

Might be a bit late to the thread but ragdoll by daniel cole is a book i wish i could read for the first time again, crime drama/detective fic, highly recommend. They turned it into a tv series too, which i havent seen yet so cant say if its as good as the book.
Real life stuff i just got done reading the rodchenkov affair, which was a very interesting read although i suppose a bit of a niche topic 😅

I've gone through loads of the SF Masterworks and I'd say the majority of them are really good.

Someone else I came across recently on reddit is Exurb1a; The Fifth Science
https://amzn.eu/d/cTb8lPV
Highly recommend, it's a collection of short stories that do sort of tie into one another. I loved it

Zoroastrianism" is interesting! Originates back over 3,500 years ago! I need to look into this! The last religion in Egypt when Cleopatra was alive was the "Worship of Isis" which was was over 4000 years ago, yet Hinduism is 4500 years old, crazy!
Please check out Rudolf Stiener "Atlantis and Lumeria" you will love that!

If your up for a mind blowing allegedly true story that is amazing try getting your hands on a copy of "The Vertical Plane" its an account of the Dodderton (that might not be spelt correctly) messages. I don't wanna spoil the plot for you or any potential readers so I'll leave it at that, anyone wanting to do there own research pre reading is welcome. Just learning about the incident is very interesting.

I’ll start Dr Dre 2001 and Bob Marley and the wailers.
Wu Tang Clan - Enter the Wu Tang (managed to see them in NYC for Rock The Bells 2010 performing the whole album was a dream comes true) and the second best album for me would be Gang Starr - Moment of Truth
finally someone said Blue Lines. It's odd because in a lot of ways musically I don't rate it highly, it's kind of clumsy in parts, some of the ideas are underdeveloped, some of it almost makes me cringe. But there was just something so special about that time and the sound felt so new and yet familiar. Even though their later stuff is "better" Blue Lines has such a permananet special place in my heart.
Prodigy - Music For Jilted Generation
Leftfield - Leftism
Could list plenty but these 2 are special 😎🥳🤯👽
Leftfield - Leftism

Leftism is immense. It's been a while, I'm gonna have to fish it out the old collection.
Time well spent. As for The Prodigy, I saw them at Glasto in '95. They were flying high off the back of Music for the Jilted Generation. I vividly remember Keith (RIP) rolling onto the stage in a giant hamster ball. They were awesome. So much energy.
I was in the crowd too. Got a bleeding nose but was dancing so wildly I didnt realise. Everyone was freaking out and I was like...what..? It sort of strangely suited the moment.
Glastonbury 95 was epic!

dark side by pink floyd and blonde by frank ocean. i absolutely rinse both year after year :)
Tom Waits "Blue Valentine", Ry Cooder "Bop Till You Drop" - honourable mention to Joni Mitchell "Blue", Janis Joplin "Pearl", David Crosby "If I Could Only Remember My Name", and a gazillion others...
Raindogs is a great album. But for me the holy Tom trinity is Blue Valentine, Swordfishtrombones and Bone Machine. Then again he's my favourite artist and I don't think he's made a single dud album.
Since my favourite 2 have already been picked by loads of people, I'll go for...
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Portishead - Dummy
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Portishead - Dummy
What's going on- Marvin Gaye..almost goes as a mix album the way the songs blend into one another. So relevant to today too.
Another I've played to death over the years is Joni Mitchell- Blue. Just a sublimely chilled album.
Many more, but these two I think I have probably played the most in my lifetime so far

Graceland brings back memories of my mum blasting that album most days when I was a kid
That's how I first heard it too when my mums friend got them the album back in the early 80s)
If you don’t know…wake up! 💯❤️
Hard to pick just 2, and I see a nearly all male list below...so:
Baduizm - Erykah Badu
Hounds of Love - Kate Bush
Midtown 120 Blues - DJ Sprinkles (couldn't leave this utter classic out!)

"The Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd: Released in 1973, this album is considered a masterpiece and one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all time. It features a conceptually unified theme and explores various philosophical and existential topics. Tracks like "Money," "Time," and "Us and Them" are widely loved.
"Thriller" by Michael Jackson: Released in 1982, "Thriller" is the best-selling album of all time and a cultural phenomenon. It revolutionized pop music, blending various genres and delivering iconic hits such as "Billie Jean," "Beat It," and the title track "Thriller."

Dark Side of the Moon, best album ever, bar none. 50 years old this year, same as me!
950 weeks on Billboard 200 chart! 750 of them consecutive!!
Lee 'Scratch" Perry - Open the Gate. Sadly deleted and expensive to buy, but can be downloaded online. 2 CDs of heavyweight 12". Jimmy Cliff got me listening to reggae, this album burnt it into my soul.

Dark Side of the Moon has got to be my first pick. Millionaires by James is great when you've got some sativa running through your system.
The b-side of the sit down single is Live at the Manchester Gmex. On headphones is still the best crowd singing of a song to date.
Never heard Dub Side of the Moon until today- bloody great👍- so big thanks for the heads up!!!
Wow!!!! Just WOW!
Dubside of the moon 🌙
Amazing..... how this has escaped me is beyond me 🤷♂️ I love darkside that much I have the prism tattood on my chest

I can safely say that Appetite for Destruction is the album I've listened to the most. Carousel by Subcircus has had well over 20 years love from me as well
My picks:
The Velvet Underground & Nico - just a classic album. Spaceman 3 "The Perfect Prescription" with an honorable mention for Ode to Street Hassle

2 is incredibly difficult, and I can't be the only one with eclectic tastes and a butterfly mind where these will all change regularly anyway. So I'll go with:
Ash - 1977
and
Kent - Hagnesta Hill (available in English and Swedish, so surely I get to choose both?)

I once worked on a tour of Denmark and Kent played , your comment is the only other time I’ve heard of them lol
That's so cool! Is this weird? The most unbelievably amazing band that almost no-one has ever heard of, or so it seems. They filled stadia in Scandinavia.
There are loads of full albums I’ll listen to…naming just two, well the two most recent ones that spring to mind for me Acid Bath-when the kite string pops and Oasis - definitely maybe not a bad track on either one.
Muse - Absolution( regardless if you like the band the story of the end of the world from start to end is amazing!)
Nirvana - Unplugged in New York
Nirvana - Unplugged in New York
Script of the Bridge by The Chameleons. Some friends told me they would bury the album with me, I'd go to sleep listening to it.
Scary Monsters by Bowie, time of life thing for me 'Teenage Wildlife'.

Mrdeeds36, yes it is, blinding track, good to hear from another fan. 'Up the down escalator' is my anthem for a crazy world today.

How long now will it take now?

I adore this period of post punk before brit pop came along and fudged it. IMO lol
Swamp Thing from Strange Times is another brilliant song.

You nailed it with the lyric mate.
They were a good band live, too.
I agree with you.

Hi Mate, Got 'Script of the bridge' playing again this weekend. The album seems more poignant than ever.
Light up and have a good weekend.

Hey bud, I'm well thanks and intend to have a good weekend, it's my bday on Monday so have started early with some very nice and mood lifting Cap Junky, then for some stand up comedy me thinks.
Script of the Bridge will always be applicable to me. Finding some albums feels like finding treasure and it's one of those albums, as is From the lions mouth by The Sound, which if you haven't heard I profoundly recommend. Have a good'n mate and tell me, what are you smoking on matey and have you chonged anything recently with strong euphoric/giggly affects?

I will be listening to that recommendation later today.
Smoking 'red apple' Leb, 'apple tart' Maroc hashish and just got some 'Sunset Sherbet' and 'Billy Kimber' bud, all amazing.
Happy birthday. Crispy

Hi Mr, Really liked that album, how did I miss that? Do you like 'sad lovers and giants' and 'and also the trees' ?
Never heard of either band before this shout. I listened to Epic Garden Music this morning on a hike and it's fantastic love the use of the keyboard and you can really hear early elements of shoegaze taking shape on tracks like "Lope" and "ART".. This is a very good band crisp.. Try listening to Soul Mining and Dusk by The The and tell me what you think. Anyway stay cool compadre.
This is tough but going on repeats alone I reckon these pip it,
Riding with the king - Clapton and BB King
We're new here - Jamie xx and Gil Scott-Heron

So glad someone has shouted out Jamie xx, amazingly talented music producer the first album with him and his sister The Xx I can’t even guess how many times I’ve listened to it, song 1 known as intro is a work of art. I’m gutted they or he have released so little but sadly he probably earns more producing for other artists who are more mainstream?
Not heard of your other suggestions but will check them out based on your clearly good taste !

dEUS The Ideal Crash and Pretty Hate Machine NIN. Never tire of those two... There are many more but these two popped out my cheesebox first.
Dre 2001 and Fleetwood Mac Rumours.
Fleetwood Mac especially. Playing that album on a good car stereo on a nice road in the summer. Great times....👌🎶

Reading the comments, we’re such a bunch of mixed people here haha (GOOD) I think I saw every genre. I don’t really have 1 album I like but it’s one song from a few if you get me.
Cheap Thrills - Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Company. Aqualung - Jethro Tull. Both are extraordinary (to me, anyway) with a good dose of THC.
Just 2 …thats tricky!!
Some have already mentioned primal scream screamadilca. I played underworld dubnobasswithmyheadman a lot as well, but I think I will actually plump for depeche mode violator and u2 Joshua tree, 2 albums that got played a lot and got me through life…

such an impossible question but I'll go with 2 albums I've been loving for over 30 years and not remotely bored of:
gang starr - step in the arena
autechre - tri repetae
gang starr - step in the arena
autechre - tri repetae
Been reminiscing about my early smoking days and two albums come to mind from that era that might not be too obvious:
Feels by Animal Collective
Freak folk types crooning through a psychedelic wall of sound. Production on this album is spot on and contributions from Kria Brekkan on keys really fills out the sound. I haven't enjoyed anything they've done since very much. This is peak AC in my opinion.
Microcastle by Deerhunter
Poppier than their previous efforts but their best record front to back in my opinion. Well crafted songs with catchy hooks enhanced by shoegazey guitar tones and production values.
Bonus mention for Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes by TV on the Radio. "Dreams" used to be one of my favourites to light one up to.

Third World - 96 Degrees in The Shade (1977)
Micheal Hurley- Snockgrass (1980)
Honestly I have so many favourite albums. Its hard to choose just 2 🤔

Dre's 2001 deffo top 10 for me. Its tough a one, but Hybrid Theory and Slim Shady LP are what I settled on after starring at my PC screen for 20 mins internally debating the question lol The first Buffy soundtrack sat on repeat for about 3 years in my teens too haha
So recently discovered an artist called honestav and his album hara-kiri is one of these albums for sure
For me it's got to be lupe fiasco lasers album deluxe edition. And Hopsin No shame album. Can listen to every song on both and never get bored

Jesus would be a good call, if he could do that thing with the wine then think of the stash!😵💫🥰
I have nothing to back up this up because I haven’t looked but a yoga teacher once told me that Jesus smoked weed and did yoga… a lot!
That’s if he is real ?
Now I’m not saying he is or isn’t and a firm believer that you do what you want as long as you don’t impose your beliefs what ever they may be on me.
but I just find it wired how in the Middle East that Jesus had mates called Mathew, Mark, luke and John ?????

I have no doubt that Jesus was a real person and have read a number of good books on the subject. My favourite is ‘Holy Blood & The Holy Grail’ which examines the theory that Jesus was actually high born, had a real if tenuous claim to be King of the Jews and that this together with his non stop preaching is what pissed the Romans off. He actually married Mary Magdelane at the wedding at Cana (as a lowly carpenter’s son he would not have been invited to what was a society wedding) and because the Romans wanted rid of him his followers negotiated with Pontius to ‘disappear’ him rather than see him imprisoned and they did rather a good job of this! They cut him from the cross, hid him a got him out of there in what would become to be known as the ‘resurrection’.
He died not long after in Europe, but Magdelane was pregnant and there became a huge mission to protect his bloodline. The holy grail was in fact a symbol for her womb. She bore his child and died in France. The knights Templar have protected the bloodline and it’s believed his descendants are alive today.
Nice! 🥰🥰

Jesus was irrefutable as a real living person, Christians believe he was the son of God. Thats what their faith boils down to, you believe he could perform miracles or you dont, however Christ existed as a mortal being. Whether he rose from the dead etc is where faith derives, you believe or you dont.
Inglis83 that’s your prerogative and that’s my whole point wherever I agree or disagree is irrelevant to anyones opinion.

Me to man ✌️💨 honestly didn’t pick Jesus to spark a debate just thought why not he’s caused a pretty big stir real or not 😂
Hey dude.. I mean Jesus is a historical figure not just religious so as real as Henry the 8th or Julius Caesar.
Who knows what names they had in the Middle East thousands of years ago. The bible could be a fairy tale but there is a lot of evidence to suggest Jesus was a real person
That being said I think a lot of history is bolox so who knows really but it’s as good an answer as any not sure why your picking on me 😂
I’m spiritual but not Christian or religious so not imposing any beliefs on anyone

I agree I just thought Jesus was a funny answer and if I met him then I would get to find out some secrets 😉
People be free to believe what they want it dosnt bother me 😊
Im all good buddy how are you?

I'm 50/50 on whether that last point was tongue in cheek, but just in case it wasn't, the names of the Apostles are Anglicised from Aramaic (via Hebrew and Greek).
Many of you have already said so Jesus so going to have to go with Alexander Shulgin
Nikola Tesla - Would love to bring his ideas to the current stage of tech giving humanity freedom and the world a much needed break from our destructive manors.

Snoop for me too. Everyone who has had the pleasure of smoking with him has a funny story. I’m not the biggest Kat Williams fan but his story is my favourite.
I used to walk about on Hampstead Heath at night sometimes, not because I am gay, but because I hoped to bump into George Michael cruising so that I could have a spliff with him.
What a wonderful man he was.
What a wonderful man he was.
Not enough people know about how much good work he did. He gave most of his money away to good causes, supported people with drug and alcohol issues even though he was battling his own. He was treated terribly by the press, had to hide that he was gay due to bigotry and still endured working in the public eye. The man even had to change his name as his real Greek name was viewed as " too foreign". Legend of a human being. A real biopic is long overdue, he's a hero.
Bill Hicks legend and right about everything
RIP 🥲
I know this is not a very popular idea. You don't hear it too often any more … but it's the truth. I have taken drugs before and … I had a real good time. Sorry. Didn't murder anybody, didn't rape anybody, didn't rob anybody, didn't beat anybody, didn't lose – hmm – one fucking job, laughed my ass off, and went about my day. Sorry. Now, where's my commercial?

Amy & Janis for sure.
They would definitely have guitars. We'd sing & laugh our cackly laughs & talk about love & broken hearts & why men aren't good for us.
I don't think there'd be snacks but I'd cope this one time.

I would sacrifice myself to get stoned (literally) with Netanyahu to save the world. But before I would some a joint with him... maybe he would calm down?
Isn't he the guy that tried getting a young boy to suck his tongue 😬

If there is a fundamental right to wrong for crypto this is it.
If there is a fundamental right to wrong for crypto this is it.
So does the problem, the largest human rights violations on earth are those actively enforced by states and religions.
Like lithium sourcing in Africa the worst kind of child labour imaginable in brutal conditions supported by every western country and at this point 99% of the western public;don’t ask don’t tell situation
As much as I do agree with you and trust me I do, I’ll play devils advocate.
Do you believe we would have the advanced societies that we have today without religion? Religion was in my opinion the main thing that brought us together instead of just being small packs of tribes
Also if you look at what the world was like even just 50 years ago let alone 200 years it is crazy how far we’ve come in terms of morality.
Now with all this said it makes me sick to my core what is going on around the world right now, I have to refrain from reading sub consciously attractive material as it has such a detrimental effect on my mental health.
Unfortunately I have come to the conclusion we are just so inherently flawed, evil will always make it to the top regardless of if it is a socialist or capitalist society.
I just believe despite how religion has been used as an evil power, it is one of the main reasons we’re in the safest part of history ever. It is a double edged sword
I also believe the west is just as bad as some of these counties you mention, we are just far better at hiding it.
I have always been an atheist if that means anything

This could enable a righteous meme coin with a drop to women's rights groups in these countries.
this is a brilliant idea bigga and the kind of thing that could unlock the real potential of crypto
why should we care about backward countrys that send nothing but hate??? time to take care of your own and screw everyone eles .... tired of people trying to guilt trip you just because you live in a slightly better place...
I hate mankind there is nothing humain about people. And nothing smart about people who have children they can't look after ... you make your bed you lay in it.... wish i could not be held accountable for my actions and people would give me free stuff and let me into countrys Illegaly and not put me in prison or deport me ... guess im not the right colour or religion or i've not been opressed enough ???

What is the best Science Fiction Anime Series?
Edens Zero is a new series if you want somthing light hearted and not too heavy ... if you want heavy watch Gantz, Straight jacket, Karas ect.... Bryn…
Cowboy Bebop is amazing, beautifully written, drawn, and directed. Don't be turned off by the 1st episode which isn't very sci fi and more like film noir cliche stuff. The future world unfolds over the episodes along with the back story of how it evolved though another great thing is each episode stands independently.
There is supposed to be a live action movie coming out at some point in the future. I thought there would be a third season but l guess l am wrong.
Steins gate is class. Time travel sci fi. Bit of a slow burner but get past the first two episodes it’s quality on Netflix as well.
Steins;Gate is brilliant. Some unique characterisations and a great, but inevitably confusing, take on the time travel concept with a ton of real world references and conspiracies. Solid choice. However, I highly recommend this viewing order: Steins;Gate episodes 01-22 then episode 23β (alternate version of 23), Steins;Gate 0 episodes 01-23 (you can watch somewhere online or on Crunchyroll) then original Steins;Gate series episodes 23-24. Sounds confusing lol but honestly this is the best way to experience the story.
Finished kaiba the other night from this recommendation. Thought it was class, trippy as fuck.
I love the premise here with the mind-body interchange but its really hard for me to get past the drawing. It seems more like something out of Spain in the 1930s than Anime.
Don’t know if this is a mad suggestion or if literally everybody has seen it. But the Animatrix ?
9 (I think) half an hour animated films set within The Matrix universe. All are interesting and well animated, but a few are stellar.
There’s one created by Shinichiro Watanabe, of cowboy beebop and samurai champloo (my personal favourite).
If you haven’t seen it, buy the dvd and watch it; if you have seen it, back me up!
Peace

Terraformars (テラフォーマー, Terafōmā) are evolved humanoid cockroaches who live on Mars. They possess physical traits and skills that greatly surpass those of normal humans. They also appear to be somewhat intelligent and have a natural hatred for humans; much like how humans hate cockroaches.

not sure it qualifies as science fiction - but! try to watch it when high when high.
DOROHEDORO
i'd love to hear from you when you do.

Dorohedoro is fucking class. Watched the first season twice (high) then read the entire manga.
serial experiment lain!!!, a bit old but still ahead of most anime... and I mean, Evangelion, if you have not seen it!
Was about to say this, superb Anime!!
Also, an oldie but a classic is "The guyver" bio booster armour!!!

Deathnote was good, so was One Punch Man. Terror in Residence was really good too. And I quite liked Knights of Sidonia. Or just watch Akira and Ghost in the Shell and be done with it :)
Thanks for the tip. It should be cool just based on the fact that he did Samurai Jack. And Ive found out a movie version was made and even submitted to oscars (fck oscars tho!).. Nice!!
Sci fi anime faves:
Noein (short series based on quantum physics theory),
Gintama (comedy anime partly set in space),
Ergo proxy (short dystopian series in futuristic world),
Inuyashiki (Old man becomes a weaponized cyborg and you follow his story),
Parasyte (High school kid gets infected by an alien parasyte),
And last but not least!
Psycho pass, it has 3 seasons and about 5 movies on the same world. A world which is monitored by an expert crime a.i. program, people get a hue which shows how likely to commit crime you will be, it's hard to explain but definitely my favourite sci fi series for a while.

Trigun was one of my favourite highly recommended it. The 7 deadly sins is pretty cool.
Terra formars is one of my all time favorites, parasyte is great but more body horror than sci fi
Think someone has mentioned all of these, but still
gurren lagann, Evangelion, Cowboy bebop, Space Dandy, Legend of the galactic heroes are some of the heavy hitters that everyone should see
Planetes is lesser known and quite low stakes but really good show about a crew who live on a satellite and have to collect trash from earth's orbit
Kaiba is great if you can stomach the art-style and are high enough to understand what's going on

Steins Gate has to be number 1 it’s one of the best anime's even outside of just the sci fi category, I highly recommend it, it has really interesting plot-lines about time-travel. Parasyte is also another great watch along with cowboy bebop a classic futuristic western like show.
Cowboy Bebop. No qualifying statement required. It's a timeless classic. I wish I could see it for the first time again
Space dandy. Some really good episodes to watch stoned especially the first few.
Love death robots good shout.
Saiki k. Didn't watch stoned but really enjoyed it, might give it another look myself.
Non SciFi recommendation would be Kakegurui, if you haven't watched it watch it stoned it's really good. It's about gambling and girls that leak a lot of fluid.
Also 'close enough' is quite good to watch stoned from the makers of the regular show but for adults.
All should be on Netflix.

Non SciFi recommendation would be Kakegurui, if you haven't watched it watch it stoned it's really good. It's about gambling and girls that leak a lot of fluid.
Also 'close enough' is quite good to watch stoned from the makers of the regular show but for adults.
All should be on Netflix.
Castlevania on Netflix is awesome! Not really sci-fi but the art style is great and a nice spin on an old tale. I binge watched 3 seasons in like 3days lol
I am going to give a quirky suggestion and say Boogiepop Phantom. Otherwise, Cowboy Bebop.
(But once you are done with Cowboy Bebop, watch Samurai Champloo. It is Cowboy Bebop set in feudal Japan).

Anything by Elton John fucking hate the cunt and his music, my wife ruined my Xmas day few years back by telling me a gay singer i didnt like had died.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
and i feel better about myself, you know plotting his murder and all. george michael on the other hand was a genius and worth a quickie in the facility of his choosing
Hahahaha, I actually like Elton, well as much as a straight man can but that made me laugh man.
Fairground simply red, gives me violent thoughts of grabbing mick by his flowing red curls and bouncing his head of every hard surface available. Total pissflap
Yeah anything by Simply Red can give me Forrest Whittaker eye but Fairground is especially bad
And imagine being called Eileen when it came on down the pub back in the day…. Poor cow needed 3 packs of baby wipes.
Too many but Will Smith - Wild Wild West has got to be up there surely. It’s like some record execs put a gun to his head and said ‘Dance bitch!’
Do you think they did it again to willow ? I whip my hair even for a 13 year old was fucking awful
that movie had so much going for it and they still blew it, would make a better series than a lot of shit
Nothing Compares to You by Sinead Depressing Cunt O'Connor that song has the warmth and charm of a dead Rat lying next to a used Tampon.
That Barbie girl tune, need I say why! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
Ok you win… The grandma I love you song was fucking horrendous, then they felt the need to create the sequel… Grandpa I love you… I mean we got the message the first time.
written and produced by herbie flowers, one of the greatest session musicians of the late 60's and 70's (google him - he's was an amazing musician and played bass on many of the greatest recordings of the era from lou reed, scott walker, david bowie, t rex, bryan ferry, many more) who was sick of getting paid session rates and living in a two bed semi in ditchling while everyone who employed him got super rich so came up with the st. winifred's school choir records as a retirement plan, possibly also as revenge against a cruel, unjust and uncaring world/record buying public and maybe a bet with lou reed that he could make something even worse than metal machine music and still get it to number one.
you are right though, they are truly the worst songs ever recorded.

Lol. She is a liar too, when that Leo chap drowned in the ice, his heart certainly didn’t go on….
Watch this with your sound on, and I think you will agree no further explanation is required.
Bruno Mars.
"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are"
My question is - how many faces did he previously change to suit his needs. He's amazed he found someone who's face doesn't need rearranging. This man is a psycho folks.

Keane - Bedshaped.
Stupid, depressing lyrics that make no sense at all.
Bedshaped? That'll be a bed then...
I hate it because it reminds me of the two weeks I spent crawling around a 20 inch deep subfloor void for 8 hours a day, doing timber treatments on a huge old house.
That shit was on the radio every 20 mins for the whole time we were there.
Scarred me 🙉

Steppin' Out by Joe Jackson. Ain't rock, ain't disco, can't dance to it without looking like Steve Martin doing a retarded dance.
If you really want a contender for worst song, you need to listen to Taylor Swift Gorgeous. The song composition and the lyrics seem like they were written by a child.
Also majority of her songs. She did a cover of September by earth wind and fire that haunts me... She turned funk into folk what the actual fuck.
hahaha.. funny to see Zeppelin here because it did occur to me too . Seems like everybody has to adore their music :P
I forgot all about this,Hey plenty of Zepp stuff is fine but that song really gets my goat the first time i heard it i never knew who it was my missus had been putting cd's in the laptop and they kept getting synched to my ipod it came on random one day and i just went wtf is this shit before looking who it was, it sounds to me like a holiday camp band doing reggae.
All musicians steal mate and say they were inspired. A lot of that era were the same. Keith Richards does it. Don’t think that takes away from them as musicians.
Cool, mine too. Sometimes I feel like the great Alan in your photo speaking to younger people. AHA. I was sick with laughter when he got hit with a cow. Steve coogans characters are genius. All the way back to the calf family
as a punk i was always compelled to hate led zep, it was a mistake, i still hate most classic rock still (with merit now) but these guys were really in a class by themselves.
I’m too nice to downvote as maybe that’s how you feel but seriously? The band who gave us in my time of dying can never be fuckin awful.

Driving my girls in my car when they were younger they always put the radio on. I'm fine with that but I had to insist on three strict rules. 1. No Phil Collins; 2. No UB40; and 3. No Starship "We Built This Fucking City". I consider myself a pretty mellow guy but if the station wasn't changed when any of them came on I could change into a raging beast.

What Exactly Does 420 Symbolize?
Is it a date is it a time I've never heard a straight story.
It was police code for marijuana-specific calls on police radio channels (*in the US). It was changed for obvious reasons many years ago By the time it was changed, 420 was already synonymous with marijuana all over the world. Same goes for rap music..."get caught up on a 187" and "slipped and judge slapped em with a 311" with 187 being police code for murder and 311 being code for robbery.The codes are all probably different now since the person sharing this with me was a retired judge/ ex-police officer and he was talking about all this like it was from a loooong time ago. Anything but that meaning is a madeup story by some stoned kid who probably had a persuasive way of telling stories. Oh btw, Haight Ashbury has that time there because it means pot, not because they started it. They have gay flags everywhere...did the rainbow flag originate from there too? I love hearinng all the creative BS people were told and regurgitated. Grateful Dead's address? Hahaha...awesome!
yep. this is the right explanation. so wierd how a police code has become a worldwide thing! ??????
187 is a drive by shooting and 420 was also the time some tokers thought was ok to start smoking weed
Seems a popular opinion is a group of teens in cali, kinda cool not sure though but fashion in languages is fascinating. Jive Turkeys......

According to Oxford University Press...
'The real story involves two friends, Steve Capper and Dave Reddix, who bonded over smoking pot in high school during the early 1970's. One day, they heard about a field of marijuana near a Coast Guard base where they were told they could pick as much as they wanted. With a map in hand, they went searching after school for the magical field of marijuana. Every day, they met under a statue of Louis Pasteur at 4:20.
"And we'd remind each other in the hallway that we were going to meet at Louis at 4:20. So we'd look each other as we passed by and we'd go, '4:20 Louis.' You always smiled when you said it, it was kind of a knowing smile. But eventually the Louis dropped," '

Yup, 4:20 is a time and not a date. It signifies the end of the school day within the Californian state education system during the 70's. It's basically the time folk meet up and have some fun... fo'twenny!
Always thought it was based on a indoors vegetative lighting grow schedule.
As in 4 hours darkness, 20 hours light = 420
As in 4 hours darkness, 20 hours light = 420
That depends if its PM or AM... ; )
420 PM = disappointment - I know I have probably another 6 hours before I can have smoke
420 AM = Oh crap - Ive just woken up on the sofa again! Time to make my way up to my actual bed.

ITs Actally April 20th the ideal date too germinate your seeds to be grown outside thus being past the last frost of the year and is the date all uk growers know of or at least i thought did lmao
420 degrees F is the maximum temperature at which you can vaporize THC. I appreciate the 4/20 tradition might have come before vaping facts became knows, but we're stoners... sometimes the answer comes before the question. I prefer mine at 390 degrees, but happy 420 anyway!
I thought at 4:20 the minute hand and hour hand unite and release a wee waft of timeless smoke....

What's declined more After Steve, Apple or Pixar?
The truth has been spoken
The last few “generations” of iPhone and the watch have been a shitty cash grab. A fucking x,Xr and xs releases not so long ago and now a fucking 11, 11 s and 11 pro released like what less than 2 years later with a new screen? Fuck you apple.
Definitely Apple. Shouldn't come as a surprise. It's happened before when the stockholders decided to get rid of him. All l remember about Tim Cook is the first time he addressed his U.S. employees in a theater the way Steve did when he brought out a new product. Instead of talking about future of the company he decided to come out of the closet. Who gives a shit! It has absolutely nothing to do with the company. Is it a surprise the watch has been a colossal failure when all he was concerned with is his sexual orientation? Steve would probably be happy that he's no longer alive to see what's happening to his pride and joy.
Apple
Used to be so excited when getting an upgrade, now it’s just the same phone over and over for more money, I’ve got the lot though so the bastards have me locked in !

Popping over to Yourmumshouse?
YMH appreciation post.
You know that homely feeling you get, when you go see that mother figure in your life? That warm home cooked meal? A fresh set of mum washed clothes?. That is how visiting Yourmumshouse has felt for me... ;)
Seriously wanted to write a topic about my experience just so it doesn't get entirely lost through reviews!
Had 2 orders from YHM. (I will add here as a cover to all the buds, that in terms of structure, buds are fantastic, some a little drier here and there but overall plenty of terps, not over dense but still chunky. Obvs some fluffiness/terp coverage etc varies but all are very impressive from essentially 9 different strains total)
First was 2ozs from the 160 deal. We had Wedding Cake, Ice cream cake, Skywalker OG and Biscotti.
The Wedding cake was a phenomenal example. I really don't know how to describe it. I have seen poorer "cali" examples go for 2x the price.
The Ice cream cake wasn't quite as good as the wedding cake, but I will say that isn't a dig at it, its just how good the wedding cake was. The Ice cream was still a lovely smoke, just a tiny bit tamer imo.
The Skywalker took me back the first time i tried the strain a few years ago, and I never had a recreation of that high until YMH.
Biscotti just slapped. Was not to underestimated as both myself and the mrs made that mistake a couple times lol. SUPER flavour.
Then the second order (pictured top down - Apple Pie Cake, Oreoz, Lemon Poppers, Super Runtz and Sunday/Sundae Driver)
I pinged YMH a message asking for recommendations on the premium 190 bundle as I wanted to spend a lil more for something extra on my birthday. Mentioned the Oreoz, Super Runtz and some Lemon Poppers they had and offered to give me a Oz split between the 3. As well as that chucked in a extra pack of edibles (I am 1.5hrs through the entire pack as i write this and I may have gone overboard with all the bud sampling i have done too). I picked up 1oz of the cali, and 1oz of the 160 deal again.
Apple Pie Cake - Super frosty and terpy goodness. It does remind me a little of the wedding cake but less stoney but more euphoric and a much fruiter taste as the name would imply.
Oreoz - One of the most purple infused buds i have ever had. Also quite terpy, I don't think the flavour is as in your face as everything else, but a very typic oreoz heavy stone.
Lemon Poppers - I think this is my personal favourite of this order. Really nice strong lemon taste and smell. Bit like those lemon sherbet sweets. Had lemon poppers before, but the initial few draws caught me off guard quite heavy in the head, but then as quickly as it came, washed into a super energetic, euphoric high.
Super Runtz - Probably the best "Runtz" variety I have had as well. I have usually stayed away from Runtz phenos mostly due to the first couple of tries were disappointing. This is NOT disappointing. Got that citrusy/candy like smell and taste that I never got from the other ones i tried that everyone told me Runtz was about. A nice gassyness to this as well.
Finally, I might come back to edit this for Sunday/Sundae Driver, as I am balls deep high, and I don't know if I will make it through another J today. Time will till. But what I will say it that the buds are super frostied and there is a deep sweet smell thats tempting me.
I couldn't say which I think is better between the more expensive deal or not, but that is in no way a insult to anything, its is more how impressively good the buds are in the cheaper deal for the price.
To top it off. Hats off to one of the best stealth whilst keeping the buds themselves to nicely intact and loved.
YMH have honest to god become my go to in just a month and a bit. Super friendly, polite and sell one of the best selections on LB imo.
I know this went a bit ramble like, and I don't want to seem like a suck up or shill. I am just 100% super impressed (and high)

Great write up! Ordered from them this afternoon for the first time ever, and it seems lots of others have too recently. Some weird draw of the universe bringing us to the apparently epic buds?
Same here, I'd seen their page before but hadn't ever ordered from them. I saw their £160 an oz offer in November and gave it a go. I was blown away by how good the bud was and I've had another order in since to try some of the other strains.
Seems like I'll need to get another one in because the Diamond Runtz looks divine. 🤤

Weird though, isn't it? I think this has been here for ages, and we all descended like weed piranhas, again. Cosmic, man. That Biker really tempts me, and I'd be interested putting the Skywalker up against my current stash from a different quality vendor.
The Biker from YMH is even better than their Skywalker, IMO. Both are lovely and taste much the same but the Biker has the edge on potency.
The Skywalker is very similar to another vendor's offering, if you like that then you won't be disappointed with this one.

Music to my ears! 🥳
The uk bud deal is amazing, had the wedding cake and skywalker and both topped quite a few “Cali” orders.
Terps was potent on both and good high, so I’m back for the Biker and runtz 🤤

Yeah, I only found YMH from them posting on a topic a couple months ago. Stuck a bookmark on as someone to try and just really pleasantly blown away.
Really do think that skywalker would have been another 40 with some vendors lol

Well I've been super baked all weekend on both the Zoap x Peach Jet Fuel and the Oreoz. I'll be back for more very soon, I think... Superb service, excellent packaging that doesn't crush the buds, and great buds at a very keen price. What more could you ask for?
Hey thanks for taking the time to do this lengthy write up, and ofcourse thanks for the support from myself and my assistant.
Fyi Skywalker OG is back on the deal now. Strains always changing and there will be new ones added weekly.
Thanks

Great read mate, I've been enjoying YMHs bud this week too.
Also nice work on the headline, it'll never not be funny to say shit like "I'm just grabbing my bits at Your Mums House".

Told a mate of mine where I'd ordered from earlier and it amused him too. Still need to get him to sort out his crypto buying, and then I'll send him a link...
Literally sent a pic to my friend earlier today and he asked ‘who from’ in which I said your mums house and left it at that 😂
Bro i told my mum where i ordered from n she told me that gran was dead and she burst out laughin .... Moms got a dark sense of humour :/
Nice write up mate. I’ve had a few strains from YMH and they were all decent. You should give the Biker OG a try if you liked the Skywalker.
I'm really enjoying that Biker OG, has to be up with there as one of the best bang for your buck smokes on here at the minute.
Have been wanting to grab the Biker OG but I need to keep the Mrs happy as well as treating myself, otherwise it would have been in this months basket 😂
Got to jump in again as I think this is the best deal on atm!
Went back for seconds and the runtz is phenomenal for the money!!’🔥🔥🔥

Was canabis mentioned in the bible
I have read in many places where people claim that canabis was an ingredient used in the anointing oil in the old testament temple .
They claim that the Hebrew word Kaneh Bosem used to be translated as canabis but is now translated as calamus or sweet cane.
I have not yet seen an English version of the bible that translates it as canabis .
Could this be fake news or is there truth to it ?

I always remember an old boy originally from Yorkshire I worked with a few years ago. He told me a story about the time he went to court for cannabis charges and quoted the bible in his defence.
Gen. 1 Verses 29 to 30
[29] And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

I’ll tell u what. Life would be a simpler place if one off the commandments was “Thou shall not pass to the right” 😆
Moses inhaled the fumes from the burning bush then spoke to God...
Sounds like a DMT trip, probably wouldve had a little smoke on the way down!

You’d have to pretty baked to come up with that fairy story in the first place...which is a more believable scenario than it being ‘written’ by a bunch of illiterate nomadic peasants wandering around the desert thousands of years ago. So, ‘god’ doesn’t care about whether u get high, or not, because he/she/they?😂 don’t exist
They've found traces of THC in the lungs of ancient Egyptian mummys so they did have access to Cannabis in that region.
really interesting, looking it up the pharaohs had some cocaine as well
Hi Philjgrove, it's an interesting theory and would be enjoyable if it's true, but I think it's controversial, of course the conservative Christians wouldn't go with this. I know there is a book on the subject "Cannabis: Lost Sacrament of the Ancient World" by Chris Bennet, also a couple of episodes of podcast "Great moments in weed history" on this subject :-)
Scripture doesn't condemn cannabis but it doesn't condone smoking or being habitually inebriated (your body is a temple, kingdom of heaven not to be inherited by the drunk) but it depends on whether you interpret 'drunk' as relating only to alcohol or having it be a more general term for not being sober. I don't live by the bible but I personally believe God doesn't make mistakes and wouldn't put it here if he didn't want us to use it.
Exodus 30:23-25
"Take the finest spices: of liquid myrrh 500 shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, 250, and 250 of aromatic cane [kaneh-bosm], and 500 of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin of olive oil. And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil."
Some scholars suggest that "kaneh-bosm" refers to cannabis. If true, this sacred oil, used in anointing rituals, could have had psychoactive or healing properties, deepening spiritual experiences.

"He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth; and wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man’s heart."
This verse celebrates the bounty of the earth, including herbs that serve humanity. It highlights the idea that natural substances can bring joy and nourishment, perhaps reflecting a spiritual purpose for psychoactive plants.

My religious mate says the big guy gave us it so the clever amongst us would forget we live on a rock being dragged through space by a massive nuclear explosion lol
Genesis 1:11
King James Version
And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed
King James Version
And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed
not really related to the actual bible, but more the religion as a whole, i read the book The Immortality Key which talks about psychoactive usage in Christianity... I'm pretty sure he mentioned them finding traces of cannabis in archaeological finds. It's very interesting. I think recent research found cannabis on an old Christian alter too.

How is Nationalism Any Different from Racism?
I don't want to give preference to someone the same color as me so why should I prefer someone for being born in the same country as me (or worse they are ordained a citizen by some twat)?
Basically it derives from the same origins. There are certain laws of ethnic relations in history of humankind, such as:
1. law of percentage: lets say a black person somewhere in gothenburg or copenhagen would trigger an amused curiosity and the outpouring of sincere sympathy, however, if you "inject" immigrant workers up to the fateful threshold of 4-8 percent and you will already have a racial situation - the nature of social relationships changes, engendering ethnic tensions, global reflexes painful to describe. The more the percentage increases, the more class struggle transforms itself into racial confrontation. Basically, this percentage is sufficient to make racial discrimination appear spontaneously in people who previously believed itself wholesome and devoid of any racist sentiment.
2. The law of assimilability: If majority and the minority belong to the same large ethnic group (all are white, or all a asian), then assimilation occurs progressively. For example, Spanish or Portuguese workers despised in France not so long ago, integrated themselves into population within the space of one generation; same for descendants of corsicans and the poles during napoleonic era, same for bambara minority living in senegal. But if the ethnic and cultural gap is too big, tensions are exacerbated with time. Like African Blacks and Arabs find themselves in this situation in Europe. Coexistance basically becomes possible only in a truly Socialist state or a state that has adopted a high morality philosophy.
3. the law of distance: like two ethnic groups that are not fighting over the same living space or same market and occupy different territories separated by space can enter into normal relationships. Like that an alliance can be explained during world war 2 between hitlers germany and japan. or relationship of pretoria with israel state.
4. the law of phenotype: basically physical appearance. It would matter little tgat botha and zulu in africa have the same genotype (same genes in the chromosomes) and it would have no influence on their daily lives because their external features are so different.
Laws of class struggle according to history applies only to societies previously made homogeneous by violence. Funny, that the most modern nations actually went through this bestial struggles before (Americas, australia, new zealand, good part of asia, greenland, huge part of pacific, scandinavia, etc, etc).For example Blacks of Americas were brough over to work the land, while the indigenous races were being destroyed. So, the "more advanced" barbarious conquerors exterminated/drove out whole populations, devastated or abandoned productive forces they they simply did not know how to use. This specific law is one of my favourite... how spartan domination ended by crumbling particularly because of the great numeric weakness of their REAL citizens. Because their society consisting of spartan conquerors and lowly helots both belonged to the same large white-skinned 'race', ethnic differences became blurred and it allowed class differences appeared only in an economic sense.
Same goes for Rome and Carthage, Rwanda-Burundi, Francs and Gallo-Romans.
Have a look at the american immigration laws and how it progressed throghout 19-20 centuries. This law also gave birth to so called intra-european racism, etc.
We forget that the passage from a clan to a monolingual tribe and to ethnic group and to nationality historically was a result, a consequences of clans exogamy. It is still widely discussed by specialists. But it marked starting point of the current civilization.
Endogamy was prohibited and we, humans, just started fucking people from the outside kkk several neibourhing clans contracted marriage ties that led them eventually to speak same languages despite that their original idioms were different.
The number of clans to gather together to work a more or less powerful tribe didnt follow any rules and depended mostly on the fertility and extent of the lands occupied by the group. Thus was born nationality.
In the course of history, when two groups of people argued over a vital economic space, the slightest ethnic difference can be magnified, temporarily serving as a pretext for social and political cleavage: differences in physical appearances, colour of your passport, language, religions, morals and customs.
We forget that basically future generations must forget about the dead so that the conquering people can undergo a rebirth with an angelic consience.
Why do we almost idolise, for example, conquistadors, holy crusaders and vikings? Pillagers, rapists, murderers and worse.
Most of the things we learn and follow, most of the times, blindly, things we consider as truths and solid facts, the very foundation of our personal universes - it was predominantly build based on someones ideologies.
Books, that our kids and us read, are also written under certain circumstances, conditions, requirements, with certain motivations. Dictated by an ideology.
Sooo.... sorry for the massive message. It just questions like this trigger something inside me, something that i consciously try to understand and overcome. For before we are races or nationalities, boys or girls, gays or straight, we are humans.
Peace yo.

Interesting points. I just came across this forum and will make a contribution. Meanwhile, on the topic of Scottish Nationalism, I have myself proposed Independence For England! We English (whatever that means through consensus) vote in a referendum to dissolve the union of England and Scotland. Never mind what they want, how about what we want, which may be to separate from them, along with the subject nation of Wales. We'll have our own oven ready breakfast and our own national covid death toll, while we surrender the last shreds of our integrity to the fucking Yanks and the fucking Chinese whose government leaders wouldn't make the groove as a couple of Pox Doctor's clerks.
Please dont have the idea that all Scots want independence
. Plenty are and always will be happy to be part of the union. There is more at play than just Scottish Independence, certain elements see Scottish independence as a means to help another cause. Understand that Independence of Scotland is not the endgame for a lot of SNP supporters.

The whole SNP "independence" thing is a facade.
The SNP want to leave our union and join the EU club because they'll give them more money than Westminster does.
They still want to be financially "dependent", just a more generous sugar daddy.
I'm talking about the SNP, not all Scots :)

High Raskolnikov. Your post showed as a comment on mine so You're addressing me, then. I have no intention of stating anything about what Scots want. My point is that I consider an English Independence Referendum is incumbent on ourselves to determine our Englishness without the input of the other three nations. Devolution, revolution, phooey! We want ablution. Wash our hands of the lot of you. Do we? Who does? Has anyone got this underway? Sturgeon and Salmond? Something fishy about those two!
I wouldn’t blame the English people if they started to see things this way but we are still all better as a union and I think you know this. Sturgeon and Salmond are just typical politicians mate who lying is a big part of the job description. There has been a huge change in Scotland in my lifetime where the working class vote has moved away from labour to the snp. Labour has shot themselves in the foot so many times but also the snp politics has changed. I have been on this earth a long time and the snp have changed so much. Sturgeon is still using her bloody daily briefing up here to try to indoctrinate the nation. I’m going to stop here as I am ranting.
Not English, then. To be born an Englishman is to win first prize in the lottery of life. That life being the infliction of Imperialism on 25% of the world's population. Nothing wrong with that, was there?
Sturgeon's manifesto was just a wish list, impossible to accomplish. I don't want Scotland to leave. We may rib each other on things but I'd like to think we have each others back when things get tough. We live on the same island. Crazy to break up.
I am British not Scottish or Welsh or Irish or English but British.
So the idea of England going on its own is kind of laughable.
I prefer this great country as one nation,I have lived all over UK so I class myself as British. Ever since devolved countries we had loads of petty arguments enough of the arguments and do there jobs.
The Scottish independence route will end up like n ireland scottish people are divided straight down the middle so can see issues battle grounds comes to mind bombings etc etc just like n ireland AND its not going to happen anyway thank god.:D
Or you english going be invaded of all the people that do not want there countries independent lol.
Plus the Queen will never allow it to happen she is still the most powerful lady in this country and can override any laws in the UK set by government it is in the small print when she signed it over to the government. She has her palaces all over the UK.
She wants to send to her son to America to answer for the crimes he is guilty as fk otherwise he would have gone over and answered there questions on very serious sex crimes.
Guilty as fk he is by dodging the request of the FBI and CIA law to himself hiding behind mummy he is.
I am British loud and proud !!!

I’m British and Scottish mate. Think it is possible to be both. I’m not interested in Independence and believe it will not happen and will be a disaster if it does. In Scotland Salmond courted a certain block vote and got it. That is what has got the snp to where they are. That and shortbread tin thinking. They will soon want to let over 14 s vote. As I said in another post, Scottish Independence is not the endgame for a lot of snp.
I always thought this, we are taught to be separate and see our differences constantly, great way for a small percentage of people to control us with concepts like "nationalism" and this your "land" blah blah.
Scotland's nationalist party don't want to exclude races, they want independence from another countries rule. It's not about racism.
lol. ok, i'll bite...
nationalism is a term for those with common interests as citizens of the same country working together for mutual benefit and/or pride.
racism is a hatred of one or more person/s where skin colour is the basis used for the defining attribute.
neither is mandatory last I heard.

It was a joke mate but fuck, Vietnam. Is that what you are comparing Scottish Independence to?
Are you talking about Arab supremacists like Hamza Yousaf ? I'm unaware of any other racists in Scotland .
a lot of nationalists aren't so much racists as exclusionary. they believe in a social contact that only exists amongst members. outsiders are not part of the deal.
Just like you would naturally have a preference for feeding your own family in your own home, before you concerned yourself with feeding anyone else.
This would not mean you hated other people, or didn't wish the best for them.
I think Nationalism is often confused with extreme Right wing ideologies, when it could be Left or Right really.

Yes you could look into the SNPs distant past or alternatively you could look at what the Tories are doing right now as we speak under your very nose.
It is funny how a conversation about nationalism is related to the SNP when anyone with eyes can see that British nationalism is the one being pushed everywhere in Britain.
The SNP didn't spend 2 million quid on a set of blue curtains and two Union Jacks and it is not the SNP who are plastering everything with the Butcher's apron either!

Not even Ethno nationalism is racist . You can love your own ethnicity more than others without hating them .
Because we can change our nationality as it’s make believe. You cannot change your DNA which is real
Nationalism has more positive range for example promoting culture. Racism is usually associated with negative feelings about other races.
They both seem doomed if you ask me.

only in touchy feely places like the uk ... not in most other countrys ... too much self hatred in this country ...
Not synonymous, but it's an interesting point.
In some sense, I think it is an individual and academic choice to be patriotic (even that is turned into a dirty word now), root for your country or be proud of it voxally. It's OK to like your country if you really do. You do live there after all. It's just a country. Other countries are not minorities in their own country as the British are not here.
As you allude to, it is a lottery, not a skill, being British (or Irish for that matter). There is little merit to being "proud" I agree. But it doesn't oppress anyone or anything in itself. It is a way to preserving culture and way of life. You can't pick who you think should be able to do that.
Otherwise, the takeaway is, only the oppressed are allowed to be proud of anything and preserve culture. What kind of world is that?
I do think that no matter what, being proud of your race is pointless, stupid and divisive.
It suggests a nexus between a superiority or exceptionality and racial group.
After all, skin colour is decided only by a few alleles in the genome and indicates very little about one's charachter.

Racism is necessarily exclusionary. But Nationalism isn't.
In general I am wary of nationalism, but there are times when it has achieved positives.

I think it is oxytocin that causes the problems as it creates aggressive in-grouping, be it from the innateness from skin colour or the innateness from where someone was born.
There was a study I linked to but there is more out there about the dark side of oxytocin. There was quite a few articles in the dumber section of media about giving men oxytocin to fix their aggression problems when in fact it might be a major factor in causing them.

I'm a nationalist. I want England and all our major cities to be English and not resemble Bangladesh. That makes one a racist nowadays.
If the reason you give for those cities resembling Bangladesh is people of other races, that's kinda the definition of racism. If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a closet racist.
The people make the nation. Change the people and the nation changes with it. Very simple concept to understand that is being proved everyday in this country. Natives are being demographically replaced in our homeland, but because we're white native displacement is considered a moral good. Soon British children are going to grow up as hated minorities in their own country. The clock is ticking...
So it's about revenge? Not exactly on to a winner with that argument. 99.99% of Britons had nothing to do with the British Empire. Just say you have an anti-white bloodlust and shut up
no, its just a result of a worldwide empire. i love whites and certianly wont shut up in the face of an ignorant one.
Nonsense answer. It's happening in Ireland as well. They didn't have an Empire and were subjugated by us.
I was just watching this video of Nick Shirley in Ireland . https://youtu.be/WfJggeIw_94?si=53bYT9Vv6eHP90wL
I think Ireland might be in even bigger trouble than Britain. There doesn't seem to be any political representation for them at all.
I think you're right . However , they do community a lot better over there . I reckon they're more likely to fight back sooner . We've already seen it in places like Coolock .
It really is awful what they've done to Ireland .

I have two lefties in my DMs threatening to post my address and do violence against me because I called out the violence of Islam . These lefties are truly disgusting
The reason certain areas of Britain look like Bangladesh now is because we've let in too many people from other cultures without giving them a chance to assimilate .
I have no hate towards Bangladesh . I'd love to visit some day , but when I go to London , I don't want to be surrounded by Bangladeshis , I want to be surrounded by Londoners and their culture . London is lost now . The culture of London can never recover from the insane amount of immigrants we've allowed to move there . It's very sad for anyone who loves British culture . Of course racists like yourself who hate whites and Brits can't see the problem .

London never had any 'culture'? Means one thing that was ever cultural about London, that you don't see now.
How can you say such a thing ?
Is London the only city that never had any culture ? What about Tokyo , Rome , or Paris ?
Does culture even exist in your world view ?
London used to be the capital of British culture . The British people are the one thing that made London a cultural hub . Those people are being pushed out at an alarming rate . 40% of London are now foreign born . These people have brought their own culture with them . This is why some parts of London feel more like Bangladesh these days .
Bangladesh is a very apt example as It's a region which has recently had it's own culture eradicated by fundamentalist expansionist Islamists . Bangladesh should be a warning to us about the dangers of uncontrolled immigration .
I don't know about you but I love my people . I don't want to see them replaced by people from the third world . I think that would be extremely racist .

Even through that lengthy rant, at no point did you mention any examples of London culture that no longer survive to this day. Why is that?
If you calm down and read more critically , you will see that I offered the British people themselves as the one cultural asset which no longer survives in London . Now answer my questions .
So you don't know. Just say that. British people are not a CULTURAL TRADITION. That and, they are still in London. Your issue is just plain racism, you don't like seeing people that aren't white in your country. Here's a few examples of culture that still exist in London. Pie and Mash, Cockney slang, Shakespeares globe, the museums, the cathedrals, the monarchy. I'd go on, but what's the point. You're a loser Pete. I'm a proud Scottish Nationalist, and we Love our culture, we also love new cultures and people's that have settled in Scotland and consider it home. You know why? Because we aren't like you. We're accepting. We want the best for Scotland, not for Whites, because fuck that stupid bigotry racist shite. You can be Brown, Black, Green or Blue, we don't care, as long as you love Scotland too, and contribute to the nation. Whether that be through paying taxes, or education. People make Scotland. Not just white people. Guess what? The only country that tried to destroy our cultural traditions is now our friends. Well, some of you.
You get racists in every country, the UK is no exception, but the way you talk is frankly disgusting.

British people are ''culture'' because culture is simply the expression of your national character and personality. You live and breathe culture simply by being who you are. Only small numbers of foreigners can be integrated into that. You change the people and the culture changes with it
What a nasty and unfounded rant . You know we can disagree and still be friendly .
My best and oldest friend is half Ghanaian . I love all ethnicities but I have a duty to protect my own .
I don't want to see any ethnicity replaced in their own lands , but I have a special obligation to the replacement happening here .
The British people are the ones who carry the British tradition . The people who replace us will not carry on the culture in our place .
Who is going to be speaking cockney or eating pie and mash once there are no Brits left in London ? The shocking speed of the replacement means there is no hope for new comers to assimilate .
You are being very short sighted if you consider yourself a proud nationalist yet can't see the danger your culture is in .
Are you not shocked that 40% of London are now foreign born ? These people bring their own cultures . At that concentration , they couldn't assimilate even if they wanted to .
How would you feel about replacing 40% of Tokyo with Americans ? Would it still be Japanese or would it ruin the culture ?

So you're best and oldest friend is not your own, because he's Ghanaian? What an absurd view.
"Who is going to be speaking cockney or eating pie and mash once there are no Brits left in London?" why, are all those non whites going to commit genocide and Take Urr Cuntray?
"You are being very short sighted if you consider yourself a proud nationalist yet can't see the danger your culture is in" our cultural heritage has never been stronger, not since you lot tried to destroy our culture by banning our language, banning our kilts, removing us from the highlands, but, we forgave you sad little people.
"Are you not shocked that 40% of London are now foreign born?" I don't understand where the problem is here?
"How would you feel about replacing 40% of Tokyo with Americans ? Would it still be Japanese or would it ruin the culture?" Considering that the Japanese are very western leaning, they still have a fantastic historical heritage and legacy, that will never go away. Just like how Londons heritage is very much alive to this day.
Again, you're just a racist Pete.

I never said my Ghanaian friend wasn't my own . Why are you misrepresenting me ?
He is a very British black man . He also understands this problem . Would you call him a racist for holding the same views as me or does he get a free pass for being black ?
If you replace all the British people with foreigners then obviously the culture will be lost . It hasn't taken a genocide to replace 40% , but violence is certainly not off the table for incoming cultures . Look at what the Muslims recently did to the Hindus in Bangladesh for example .
If the Japanese are replaced by Brits , they will obviously lose their strong culture . This goes without saying .
You're being unreasonable and actually absurd in your denial . It's basic maths . I think I'll leave it there . Please stop calling me a racist without a shred of evidence for it .

If it's the colour of people's skin you're referring to, and you're suggesting you have to be white to be regarded as english, then yes, you are. Not just nowadays, always.
So you deny the English of their genetic heritage ? For you to understand how racist that it , I want you to apply your reasoning to any other ethnicity ?
Are the Japanese , Chinese , and Africans racist for holding these ethno nationalist views or does it only apply to white people ? If you're only applying this standard to white people then you are the racist .
Of course it's possible to be civically British and ethnically foreign , but like any foreigner who moves to another country , we should respect the people we are trying to join . That includes the ethnicity and the culture of the natives . There's nothing racist about respecting the countries that take us in .

English genetic heritage? Which one? The ones that originate from Germania? The Vikings? The Norman's? Your genetic heritage has more influence from other nationalities, not just the Angles. Who were German.
As is true for every single ethnicity on Earth . Yes , we are a mix , just like everyone else , but I don't think you're denying the existence of ethnicity , are you ?
Race is extremely important to the ethnicity of the Japanese , Chinese , Africans , etc .
Ethno nationalism is the norm in the rest of the world .
Do you think the rest of the world are all racist too ?

I had to repeat myself because you didn't address this point the first time I made it . Instead you chose to argue about semantics . I don't think you have an actual argument
You can't engage me on this argument because it would expose your double standard and prove that you are the racist one here .
That's why all you can do is dodge and insult .
That's why all you can do is dodge and insult .
I'm racist because I have no issue with immigration and multiple cultures? That's new. I'm very happy to welcome people who want to make a life here, that want to work and contribute, I couldn't give a flying fuck what nationality someone is, or what skin colour they are, as long as they aren't like you Petey boyyo. You really should reread this entire conversation.
You're a racist because you deny the British of their culture and genetics . Unless you hold this view consistently for all people , Africans , Asians , etc , then you are being racist .
Genetics, really? So you must be white too be British? Nobody is destroying British culture you fuckwit Pete. You couldn't even give an example of British culture that no longer exists.
Still no argument . I really don't think you have one . It's all baseless insults with you lot .
My argument has already been covered. Nobody is taking away Londons culture. You're a fool for thinking it.
Different argument . We had to give up on that one because you were denying the obvious . 40% and growing fast is obviously going to impact the culture. I will argue no more with you about that .
Let me copy and paste the question you are dodging :
Race is extremely important to the ethnicity of the Japanese , Chinese , Africans , etc .
Ethno nationalism is the norm in the rest of the world .
Do you think the rest of the world are all racist too ?
Please try to keep track .

Ethno nationalism is only the norm in your world pal, not in the world of the less ignorant.
Ethno nationalism is the norm in China , Japan , and most African countries .
This is an objectively true fact . Do you think they're racist too ?

Seeing as no-one's answered you Pete, and you keep asking. Yes, of course they are. All ethno-nationalism is racist.
Then racism really isn't that bad , and for some reason only white people are supposed to feel guilty about it .
Racism is kinda racist like that .
Racism is kinda racist like that .
english is a race mate just like indian im english if i move to india im not an indian ? same thing should apply in the uk
India did it's own conquering and assimilating . Every country has . The UK was just the best at it . The people who are still practicing this expansionism are the fundamentalist Islamists . Islamists are the only genuine far right threat yet they're championed by you lefties because they happen to be foreign . If you want to fight racism , you should oppose Islamist expansionists . You can ask your Indian friends all about this . They know all too well the dangers of fundamentalist Islam . I think you'll find they prefer the British to the Islamists these days .
No , it was wrong . But there's a big difference . Christian expansionists went against the teachings of Jesus . Islamic expansionists are doing exactly what Muhammad did .
I have many non white and Muslim friends who I love dearly . I think you've got the wrong idea here . Who told you I was racist ?

Since when were the Crusades against the teachings of Jesus? Your rants show your true colours Pete. Nobody admits they're racist, I'm telling you, you are.
I don't consider the Crusades to be expansionism . That's a poor example .
Actually , racists do admit they're racist . That's just hateful woke rhetoric so you don't have to engage . You label and other your political opponents because you don't have an argument . It's bigoted and hateful . I assure you , you are far more racist than I am .

You'd be surprised . My view is on the rise in the West . Just look at the US . I was an ignorant lefty like yourself until about August of last year when the riots started and I spent time doing some independent research on the topics raised .
I change my mind based on facts and logic .

Yep, it's like Nazi Germany all over again. They were Nationalists too you know. If you changed your mind based on facts and logic, I'd expect you did your research through Musk and GB News.
I also don't subscribe to this whole lefty/righty pish. People that use the term Woke are just a walking talking embarrassment to themselves and others.

There seem to be a prevailing perspective of an individualistic view on what racism is, i.e. the hatred or superiority of another race, nation, or ethnicity, however this view is overly simplistic as racism is structural and systemic and is only dependent on the individual when their actions are supported by the larger system.
One can be xenophobic, discriminatory and/or prejudiced against others from other places without it being racism if they are not the dominant race/ethnicity/or culture.
Racism = power + prejudice. That is the current understanding and definition of racism in social sciences and some dictionaries (as with Merriam Webster, which was updated two or three years ago). That is not to say that racial prejudice or discrimination is allowable or tolerable. It's not. However to quantify both types of prejudice (the one that is solely individual and the one that is supported by systemic structures) as the same thing or equivalent is false.
One is an individual opinion and has no greater repurcussions than that person's world's or actions, the other however plays into a wider narrative of oppression that reinforces the structural oppression and contributes to and reinforces societal and structural discrimination.
Nationalism is different in several ways.
Firstly, pride in ones nation does not mean an inherent prejudice or discrimination against those that come from other nations (although all too often it does manifest in such a way).
Secondly, if those expressing nationalist sentiment are not the dominant authority over said nation, then it is not racism but discrimination and prejudice as they lack the power to manifest that discrimination through institutions or on a structural scale. This type of nationalism often manifests as a resistance to colonial and imperial forces. In those cases the nationalism is not being the of an ideological superiority or innate belief in the dominance of one nation over another, but rather a resistance to such.
Therefore nationalism and racism only become the same when said nation propogates their dominance and superiority over others while simultaneously systemically oppressing other nations or supporting existing structural oppression and prejudice.

That's the woke idea of racism . It's not useful for anything but justifying woke racism .
Racism is a universal principle . Once you start adding caveats it becomes a self defeating philosophy . Racism under the new woke definition is itself racist .

As soon as you use the word "woke"
your entire comment gets disregarded as clearly you are just another wanker who calls everything they don't like woke.

They're called 'Woke ' ironically because they're actually asleep . It's the name we've given to all the violent bigots on the left who haven't done any research into the causes they champion .
You'll often hear them mindlessly chanting the opposite of truth . Free speech is undemocratic . Israel are committing genocide rather than defending against one , Women can be men , Jews are Nazis , UK patriots are Nazis . Everyones a Nazi apart from the actual Nazis in Ukraine or the Islamo Nazis who have the same genocidal goals . It goes on and on .
'Woke ' is the name given to the lefty movement that is so ignorant and twisted that it's almost satanic .
These people are useful idiots for the Globalists . They can never defend their stance , so they always refuse to debate and often turn violent when challenged .

rap's saddest ghost writing?
Miami was also written by nas
Most well known one is Jay Z doing most of Dr Dre 2001. Run DMC - Can You Rock This was by LL cool J. ODB return to the 36 chambers was all written by Rza and Gza
The Chronic was written by D.O.C 2001 was mainly Jay Z. Luda did bits as well. There are videos of them doing the bars in the way Dre would so he know how to do it
Jay wrote still Dre that’s it. This guy’s is chatting nonsense.
Doc Royce eminem hit man Mel man xzibit all wrote heavily on the album.

Any AI music makers out there?
wouldn't this defeat the point of creating music if the AI dose it for you ??? then its not your creation ???

I'd like to know what tools are out there for putting something together thank you my biggz
wouldn't this defeat the point of creating music if the AI dose it for you ??? then its not your creation ???
think of it relative to any instrument, the music won't exist without the human programming it. a song is a combination of several layers of these programming decisions.
even if you were to make an independent, self learning a.i. that makes all the decisions above someone would have to write that and someone else is likely going to use it as a track in their own thing. and the beat goes on.

Until the AI can write itself or future generations of itself :). Agreed though that humans will incorporate all of it into their own creativity.
I am of the Nick Cave school of thought that there's something soulless about purely AI generated art and music; it might get there one day but it's pretty derivative and crap at generating lyrics/stories/tracks etc. That part is just a gimmick for now. I'm not sure it'll ever get there.
I feel like more likely for a long while it'll churn out mediocrity and pastiches that keep us satiated; everyone generating their own personal games, movies and fetishes in atomised bubbles ;). Not true art that is about striving, curiosity, passion, love, insecurity, even failure - all very delicate, human qualities.
On the other hand, the human spirit is very strong, and who knows what AI (or some AI-human hybrid) can produce in future. For eg the improvement in its video generation in 1 year is pretty remarkable. Imagine every brilliantly insane artist having an unlimited budget to tell epics at a tiny fraction of the real cost. So who knows where it'll go. Wild times.
I'd also add (as someone said) that everyone thought we'd all lose interest in playing chess when computers completely outstripped us, and that hasn't remotely happened. Creativity will surely go on, as you say. Humans are resilient.
I can't say I'm not worried though. I think about it a lot. At its best superintelligent AI could be almost a godlike presence that heals us in every way and improves on our "lowly natures". At its worst it could be some corporate demon we unleash or a mindless self-propagating machine that treats us like ants.
Anyway haha I am too stoned off some great hash from LB and rambling too much...

They seem to be the best but you cant have too much fun with the lyrics. Can't wait for something better.
Hmmmmm. Not as such.
But as a grass roots guitarist vocalist i have found a free app called moises that seperates the voice stem from the guitar stem. You can then blend like two track. So it gives a very good retrospective mix from raw recordings. It also has time and pitch shift functions. And a simple metronome. It also guesses your chords and can guess lyrics. It works well as a prompt.
Ive taken these files and then sent them to chatgpt and asked for a "theme" to be applied.
Im still crap but the fake parisienne audience seemed to enjoy it.
Bon chance.
A very simple application.
One which many will currently be resisting...

Cheap uk shrooms?
XD rux knows the true ways of the force XD you sir are a true jedi master :)
+ 1 more
Sausage, mash and gravy for sustenance from the awesome pub near the bottom of the trail too, I'd hope?
My ex used to live in Salford and loved to go outside. A lot. Walked 25km with Edale as one of the refreshments spots (banana, cereal bar and water, if I remember correctly) a number of years ago. Pissed down most of the way. Lovely views, I'd imagine, if you weren't thinking of how wet and cold and tired you were. There was a reservoir, and that and the area around it was spectacular, even in the rain. That pasta bake and other stuff in the field canteen at the end was the best meal I've ever eaten, and I've eaten at multiple Michelin starred restaurants over the years. Would have been even better if it had ended at that pub though.
Hey kingdog,
Uk seller here, I think my shrooms are quite reasonably priced, I have Stargazers which are pretty damn strong in my opinion, for sale.
Hope you find what you're looking for! Happy shrooming! :)
