Hey guys,
I am hoping to get some advice or insight. I am still new here and feel like I'm still not sure what is allowed and not allowed in posts. So this is a pre-post
1. Am I allowed to post a photo of a drug?
2. Is it acceptable to ask readers if they thought they could guesstimate the quantity of the drug from pic/s. The pics are of the dope sitting next to a Canadian dollar coin, both items are right above a ruler.
3. Is there any point to the above question, or is it not really feasible for a reasonably ballbark opinion?
My situation (I don't know why I can't make up my mind) is I bought off a guy and arriving home, and laying it out, I feel like I got shorted to the extent that you could call it scammed, like, to my eyes, it looks like half what should be. I'm not great at eyeballing Meth for weight either. It seems to vary in density, and depending on whether you have a single big piece, a mound of crushed up stuff, or a mixture of varied sizes and shapes of shard, the amount can look very different.
I am still a very new client, starting out in this relationship. It has been difficult finding or keeping connections around here for a while, so I'm hesitant to rock the boat . He strikes me as being fussy, fickle and maybe not so cooperative. I've seen how he does business, from his interactions with my neighbours. There have been times when he felt slighted or irritated over something and just didn't come at all or cancel, simply ghosted--on a sizable order, very, for the scale of his operation. My concern is complaining and that being enough to blow me off, or there being a quarrel and the result is the same, I lose access to the new guy. I don't have a scale to confirm, and it wouldn't matter, my pictures wouldn't either, because he has no reason to believe I wouldn't lie, hoping to get some extra, and that I portioned some off for my scam. Virtually everyone I meet who uses dope, lies all the time, almost reflexively even when there seems no gain to be had by it. As well, they scam and rob anyone they can, every opportunity they get, no one is off limits. people steal from their friends, from their romantic partner. I get to share in that reputation in my community even though Life among other Drug users is basically the thing I hate most about being a drug user myself and has motivated me to get clean on more than one occasion.
It was just an awkward stupid buy. We met on the street, he was in a rush, and he says to hold out my hand because he has no bag (like, wtf?) and he is just fishing some out of a sandwich baggie with two fingers and dumping it in my palm, in the dark. I know that is a ridiculous way to do shit, and go along with it. For years now, every connect I find is ferret brained and this is not out of the ordinary at all in my experience. It isn't easy finding sellers, worse since the pandemic. I'm just not in a great position that I can be picky and fussy about dealers. I find this kind of conflict very stressy because it isn't resolvable in an objective verifiable way for each party. I also may not be the best judge right now as I have been up since Thursday morning and today I started to feel a little impaired by fatigue. I am intending sleep sometime before the dawn arrives.
Anyway, none of this relates to harm reduction at all, it's just the normal everyday headaches of life as a drug user, especially one at the very low end of the socioeconomic spectrum. I would welcome and appreciate any opinions, thank you.
