Fuck, why aren't you guys coming to Leeds fest this year?

Also, I've always wondered, are cannabis seeds legal still? Same question with mushroom spores which are really chuffing confusing.

Basically leeds wont let us do the only head stall there, so my boss told em to go fuck themselves.

Yes, they are still legal. they are sold as gifts, i believe. BUT IT IS ILLEGAL TO GERMINATE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!

and mushrooms spore prints are still legal! just growing them isnt!!

look out next year for a replacement of eastern haze! should be bigger and better, and bongos are doing the only legal high store there!

Also! NEVER TRY 60x SALVIA IT MADE ME WANT TO DIE.

oh, and girlbones, look out for the volcano vaporiser, it is actually hardcore!

peace and treats ya'll

Mushroom spores are still legal? Man I'm fucking chuffed- I was sure they banned them 3 years ago so didn't go looking.

Pity you guys won't be at Leeds- I near enough live off you when I'm there. Suppose there'll be other ones.

Edit: Whats a head stall?

hahaha acid's pretty fucking awesome

I think the key is knowing your limits and the general limits of the human body. I'm fairly sure eyesore is aware they can kill you, I think he was just pointing out the fact that sparse use of many drugs won't be very harmful.

Most users on here seem quite smart. They seem to lean much more towards the less addictive, mind expanding side of drugs rather than the habit forming buzz side. I've never been interested in heroin or ice, I've really just always wanted to have a chance to experience different things.

It's good to hear more people who don't take drugs with rational attitudes like that.

I think you'd find it really interesting if you did some research into it - on average things like marijuana and LSD are much, much less harmful than alcohol or tobacco. It's slightly skewed because the rates of use are so different for each, but a lot of people take marijuana and it hasn't caused one direct death in history (much unlike alcohol which causes thousands per annum). I read a really interesting article in a science magazine (new scientist, from memory) on marijuana and its medicinal uses.

I believe people can still lead very healthy, rich lives while still indulging in stuff like hallucinogens from time to time. Hopefully the day comes while I'm alive that marijuana is legalised, but if anything it seems like it's heading more in the opposite direction. For example, our government said something like this in their yearly reports (paraphrased of course):

Marijuana - Marijuana continues to be a scourge on our teen society and rates of use have been increasing during the year. Harsher laws are being lobbied for...(blah blah blah)

Alcohol - This year alcohol was a boon for Australia, with the wine industries of South and Western Australia especially thriving, winning many world class awards...(blah blah blah)

This was a year when nearly 3000 people died from alcohol-related deaths and marijuana caused none.

Of course it's not proven beyond a doubt that long-term marijuana use isn't harmful, but there's not infallible evidence to say it is either. Whereas with alcohol there's plenty of factual evidence.

I can't smoke weed anymore (I don't know what happened but my brain dislikes the feeling quite heavily nowadays, but I miss it) but I still think it's a great thing for people who enjoy it and it's definitely not harmful enough to be illegal.

I for one dont believe in flashbacks (or that LSD remains in your spinal column (provide me with evidence that doesnt come from our government/the DEA and I will be convinced))

but yeah I could see where someone in a high stress situation who has had prior experiences with psychedelics could start tripping again. However, you would have had to have not eaten or drank for several days, spent some time in extreme heat or cold and have not slept. So yeah flashbacks heh whatever

HPPD tho

from wikipedia: HPPD is distinct from flashbacks by reason of its relative permanence; while flashbacks are transient, HPPD is persistent. HPPD is a DSM-IV diagnosis with diagnostic code 292.89.

are flashbacks in the DSM-IV? Not to my knowledge

edit: also does this sound like a full blown 'tripping again crash a car and kill a guy' kind of flashback (wiki recognizes HPPD as what most people consider flashbacks): "There are a number of perceptual changes that can accompany HPPD. Typical symptoms of the disorder include: halos surrounding objects, trails following objects in motion, difficulty distinguishing between colors, apparent shifts in the hue of a given item, the illusion of movement in a static setting, air assuming a grainy or textured quality (visual snow or static, by popular description), distortions in the dimensions of a perceived object, and a heightened awareness of floaters. The visual alterations experienced by those with HPPD are not homogeneous and there appear to be individual differences in both the number and intensity of symptoms."?

whooooooop deee fuckin dooo halos, trails, color issues, and other visual/sensory distortions! Granted if such a thing happened you probably wouldnt want to be driving a car or doing anything labor intensive but still its not like BAM all of a sudden you are fucking tripping again. Which is why I dont believe in 'flashbacks' as the common perception of them is concerned. I experience this HPPD or whatever (this is the first time I've ever seen it given a bona fide medically accepted description though) on a fairly regular basis, but especially so cause I did mescaline twice in the last month, and that whole mescaline reality doesnt really... go away after you stop tripping in earnest for a while.

Do any of you guys enjoy eating macdonalds after smoking marijuana??

haha there was this one period where me and my friends would head down to mcd's right after finishing a gram. i'd always find myself dancing infront of the counter while the dude's trying to get my order. but yeah, that angus is awesomeee.

wc i was saying:

i dont really believe in flashbacks either but there's still hppd which isl one potentially dangerous side of psychedellics

sorry dude I dont know why I flipped, I must have been in one of my cranky as fuck bakes early in the morning on a bad day

this is what drugs are doing to you...........

no its what shitty jobs and living with your parents do to you

The 2c's were the same for me as they were for you, mild acid like visuals, without the headfuck..

Acid is the question. DMT is the answer.


did you know the 2c's are part of the mesculine family? (or so im told? if you can confirm this DC, or WC, would be cool..)

I went to boom festival (7 days of psytrance in portugal) and tripple dropped hoffman 100th aniversay tabs on the 3rd night. They were beautiful! had 8more that night... so fluid, and colourful, it was bliss. Spent all my money on it though, got so hyped up by it. Starved for the rest of the festival. Haha.
