☮ Social ☮ PD Social Thread: N-Dimensional Funhouse of Possibilities

[swilow]

willow -- i saw if these trees could talk play live and chatted with them for awhile after they played. they're good dudes.

That would have been fantastic. I only just discovered them randomly a few weeks ago and have really been digging their album "Red Forest". I feel like they provide a similar atmosphere to some more ambient black metal stuff, at times, similar feeling of chaos.

I'd like to see them play

You may like (and probably know) the band Pelican. Their latest album, Forever Becoming, is pretty great:

Goodnight.

It's been one of those days man... work was brutal, I was missing my lady friend, feeling lonely, and it's probably worse because I was overindulging phenibut recently. All I want to do is smoke a bowl and chill out. Unfortunately, no weed. So after talking to my friend (who is on the verge of suicidal and has battled depression most of his life, I really worry about him and he's one of my oldest and closest friends), I decided to scrape my bowl of resin, and I pulled all the tiny nug bits off my stems and put it on top. About to smoke it, wish me luck...

Its gotta be done from time to time. My chest feels awful after I smoke resin; and never forget if you've used your bong for smoking DMT, because you'll be toking that shit too :D A pleasant surprise, at times...

Resin creates a very different feeling for me, more drowsy but quite euphoric. Not much THC I think, but a fair load of cannabinoids. I have a shit load of resin ATM; I'm in regular supply of weed so rarely run out but I always keep my resin when I clean my bong- force of habit- and I have many grams of black-gold awaiting my desperation.

see you guys let your tolerance build, though. i've been smoking daily for a very long time, but i make sure to keep myself to small amounts, and i almost always wait til i come down before i smoke again. i still have plenty of energy and motivation -- i am a full time student and i am working 30 hours a week.

when i was younger i was a lot more wasteful with my smoking habits, but i've found that there really is a way to smoke responsibly every day without it having a negative impact on your life.

I think you are spot on there. For the last 18 months, I had been smoking at least once a day but only small amounts; one or two small bongs, at night, an hour before bed with usualy one more immediately before bed. This was going great, but I found myself with a really large and free amount of nice outdoor grown weed and my tolerance has really skyrocketed. I need to smoke waaaaaay more then I and my lungs can handle, so after I finish my last gram, I'm going to have a short tolerance break. Weed can be the greatest tool for the restless addict trying to avoid hard drugs; for me, at least, it satisfies my desire for intoxication pretty thoroughly. I am regretting having overused it, I find not smoking to be quite stressful so I'm going to try and increase exercise and meditation.

With that said, I just ate some hash and will now smoke my weed and watch Wall-E.

Much love peeps

holy shit MDA+MXE everything is still hypersaturated in color

I was quite the sassy cat strollin around the show I was at tonight

the entire bike ride home my eyes weren't working, but I somehow managed to be fine while my friend ended up breakin his elbow trying to bike down stairs for some reason.

I had a blast and will report more details later.

marijuana really isn't all that expensive if you're careful to not let your tolerance skyrocket. i get high every day and a $40 eighter lasts me nearly a month.

Yeah I smoke this way too... after ibogaine an eighth lasted me over a month, but I only smoked sometimes. Since then I am partially back to my old ways with drugs (other than no desire for opiates). I am trying to save money, but the main reason I haven't bought any of my own for quite a while is because if I have it, I smoke it every day... however I smoke one hit at a time, or maybe two, a very small chunk of nug in a chillum usually (my ex broke my bong and I have yet to get a new one), and I get nice and high (and every hit is green). I'll do that once or twice at the end of the day and it really will last quite some time.

I agree with willow, I find weed to do a great job of satisfying my desire to get high, and when I have it I usually have no strong pull to do anything else. Whereas when I'm sober for days in a row I start to feel the desire to alter myself in some other way which will include a variety of things worse for me than marijuana (alcohol, MXE, psychedelics, stimulants). Or like last night, I wanted to take phenibut to help deal with the sadness I was feeling but instead I scraped resin and felt a lot better, and this morning I still feel better. Actually I'm pretty happy about today so far. I am going to a birthday party tonight, and I decided to take a moderate dose of DOC just now, should be in the perfect stage for a social gathering by then. We'll be doing some MXE too and that's a great combo. I was gonna go to a waterfall but there are supposed to be storms this afternoon/early evening so I think I'll go work out and come home and watch Game of Thrones, and clean and do laundry and make a dish for the party (as it's a potluck).

Good morning everyone. Or, good morning my American friends, and good whatever time of day for the rest of you.

Nice, I actually have yet to try MDA at all but I totally want to. I bet it would be awesome with MXE. MDMA is awesome with MXE, one of my favorite combos.

i do know and like pelican

[coelophysis]

What's up Laika, haven't seen you around these parts in a while.

I did MXE 2 days in a row and I have felt a bit down today... time to give it a rest. Although Saturday it's a birthday party during which MXE will be had.

Hey man, I just did a long consecutive stint of days at work so I haven't been able to make it onto BL too often other than to check things really quick. Worked extra hard, extra long and then today I'm told it' not good enough. I really gotta figure out a way to work for myself/ be my own boss lol. Workplace politics and two faced people are so tiresome. I hope you're having a good weekend. I was and still am considering some 2c-b perhaps. It's been a while since I've tried. Need a refresh Very jealous of the mxe talk, heh.

Nice dude! Totally underrated Post Rock band imo.

Pelican is good as well. It's mood music for me though. It reminds me so much of fall because I guess I was getting into them I believe in the fall of 2006.

Have you heard of or heard the new album by sleepmakeswaves? Pretty epic stuff.

 

[Xorkoth]

Damn, fuck work assholes. I hope you enjoy your 2C-B if you do it.

 

[pharmakos]

Have you heard of or head the new album by sleepmakeswaves? Pretty epic stuff.

i almost forgot about that band. i don't think i've listened to anything of theirs since their first EP. i'll track it down, thanks laikaboss.

 

[SONN]

there are a lot of things that I'm having a hard time remembering how they actually went down. It's hard to remember a lot of it now but I don't feel hungover at all surprisingly. I also took 1mg hydergine early yesterday so that might have had some sort of effect.

The sound enhancement was so insane and because there were always at least a hundred people surrounding me talking and whooping and hollering things get very disorienting but at this point I am now used to completely losing all of my marbles on MXE at shows. I don't know how I haven't lost my phone or wallet yet because I don't even remember a lot of last night. I spent a lot of it sitting down because I was too sassy to do much.

trying to talk to people with loud ass music, while that dissociated is nearly impossible. But this one girl I was sitting next to, she gave me a little bump of k and I told her how beautiful she was then we might have kissed but I honestly don't remember whether or not we did. It was an awesome interaction either way.

I think i'm going to keep all the little wristbands they give me at shows from now on and have a collection all down my arm

 

[Thorns Have Roses]

^Sounds like a good time, anterograde amnesia and fun are quite the combo.

As for me, lemme just say, mmmmm...absinthe. 138 proof, 100% delicious. I don't have sugar cubes so I can't breakout the absinthe spoon. It is still quite lovely.

And at least in my circumstances, liquor would be significantly more expensive.

Yeah, it can become pretty pricey. Especially if you smoke cigs.

With that said, I just ate some hash and will now smoke my weed and watch Wall-E.

That's the ticket.

138 proof,

I forgot to do the math on just how much alcohol a tiny bottle of this actually has. Feelin' fine. Damned fine. Let me find an artistic present for y'all (which is like the old meaning of 'you', but with the informality of 'thou'. 'tis a good word.).

Your gifts for the day:

NSFW:

Michelango - Prisoners (AKA Slaves)

For your musical selection, you get an old favorite of mine:


And as a special bonus, I'll repost an old trip report, I think it was from early 2011. As I recall, I didn't say what I took, but jesusgreen immediately knew it was 2c-e, because of the cyan. It was intranasal and eyeballed. Good times. 8(

 

[kingme]

haha nice picture there THR
though for me 2CE is more of a magenta affair...

never quite got cyan in the visuals...

 

[Solipsis]

lol! dat pictorial trip report xD
2C-E was mostly everything (and there is an entire world of many unique nuances) from blue to green - with a cold but translucent, glass-like feel to it. for me.

Boy I am spent! Such a weekend Friday I whipped up an entire dish of homemade tiramisu in 25 minutes (got experience with it) just before heading to my wonderful girl, checked out her home for the first time... we had a great time, connecting on so many levels, I open up so much with her, although still calm and naturally... and she feels comfortable with me despite many things / issues of her own. Instead of saying that I am falling in love, which I have done before, I will now say that I see something being pieced together by two souls that seems to work in a pretty magical way. It's still very fresh, but there is something about this that is really new to me... and I need time to gradually learn to deal with the intensity of what happens when we're together and how we positively feed off each other. She makes me want to be and feel like a whole person - centered and decently emotionally-rationally integrated -, and catalyzed by my pregabalin script somehow it seems I can be, and am more and more being.
It's seriously wonderful (as if that was not clear at this point), but physically and emotionally taxing / draining... which brings me to today: I had my pencak silat (artful indonesian defense sport) exam today, which went on for most of today, after waking up before 7 a.m. , with a halfway healed ankle sprain, after neglect due to having been super busy designing / building my armoire, and after the time with my girl... but I got my orange belt (nominal for 3 years exp) with honors, and the main reason they gave me was my wholesome / natural / relaxed flow that enabled my silat / style (although the exam is about technical stuff mostly, not style); ever since I got back from vacation - which is basically since only one training this new season, earlier this week - according to the jury there is something different about me. Lol love and harmony in your heart and soul, is that doping?
Other than just being proud here, I just wanna say that I'm thankful for this special gift of inspiration supplied by the things that are enabling my life to flow and flourish lately. As a person with ASD, experiencing bouts of emotional awakening is pretty damn invaluable! 8( %)

 

[psy997]

Totally feel you on the cyan visuals on 2c-e, THR

I'd never heard Alice's Restaurant either, thanks so much for sharing. I'm downloading the movie as we speak!

 

[Cream Gravy?]

^My roommate randomly picked up Alice's Restaurant on vinyl the other week hahah, I'd never heard of it before then. There's lots of good flea markets and thrift shops in my town that sell used records.

 

[psy997]

If anyone's downloading the torrent atm you're probably downloading partly from me :D

On a slightly more random note, does anyone here listen to Eric Prydz/Pryda/Cirez D? I need to go make some coffee sooo bad but I just can't bare to break myself away from this EPIC Radio 013 mix right now....

 

[Cream Gravy?]

^I'm familiar with the "call on me" music video

 

[SWIM Had A Dream]

Working a a hotel, a bunch of a cops staying here have been lobby lingering ALL NIGHT...talking about shooting people, and having a power trip sesh trying to impress a lady cop (quite hot in an Aeon Flux kind of way). I can't get out of earshot as my job requires me to stay put. I'm about to snap. Thank god for portable vaporization technology or else I'd probably be stressed to the breaking point...what terrible people...I can't wait to get out of this piece and surround myself with my loving family

 

[Roger&Me]

hell0 swirly folks, hope all is well.

Working a a hotel, a bunch of a cops staying here have been lobby lingering ALL NIGHT...talking about shooting people, and having a power trip sesh trying to impress a lady cop

sounds reminiscent of that scene in fear&loathing when thompson checks into the hotel where the cop convention is

 

[SWIM Had A Dream]

Yeah. HI THERE! My name... is, uh, Raoul Duke. I'm on the list. Free lunch, final wisdom, total coverage. I have my attorneyyyyyyy... with me, and I realize that his name is not on that list, but we must have that suite! Yes, must have that suite. What's the score here? Whats next?

 

[pharmakos]

those cops sound pretty square tbph.

Reminds me of being in the army. I knew some really good guys in my unit, but you'd be surprised by the number of infantryman who are fixated and enthralled by the idea of violence and power.
