I had a really hard time with it when I started balding. For a year or two of my life it really preoccupied and upset me. I was making the mistake of thinking that loosing my hair would make me unattractive to women. Ironically, loosing my hair taught me not to be so vain and that my attractiveness had nothing to do with my hair. I definitely ended up with more attention from women after I started balding than before, and ended up hooking up with the love of my life, who is extremely attractive and I still feel very lucky to share my life with like 20 years later.

I wish I could go back and tell that version of me that it doesn't matter. I wish I could tell you that it doesn't matter. At some point you just start shaving your head (my friend calls that haircut "the surrender") and concentrate on things that actually matter.

I’m happily married and my wife is being very supportive, but I still enjoy strangers finding me attractive and giving me “the look.” I guess I’ve tied my looks to my hair for most of my life now and it’s just really getting to me. And I have an attractive young coworker who is making fun of me a lot daily and that really doesn’t help.

I used to really enjoy psychedelics.
Until they started to actually do their job.
Now whenever I take them, I end up crying.
I stick to benzos now. 👍

It's good to cry - it's your organisms natural way to make pain manageable. Welcome your tears. (I sure do know it may not always be easy and that it may feel like a bottomless pit, but what I say is still true.)

Yeah I can relate to that. When I was younger women and girls always told me I had nice hair so it was painful when I started loosing it. When you start balding the world thinks they get to make jokes about it. It's one of those "body shaming" things that society thinks is totally ok. And I actually think they're right, it's better to roll with it, it's a good opportunity to throw your ego on the pyre. Trust that strangers will still find you attractive and give you "the look".
 
Did you guys know that Xenforo has a "discourage" feature that admins can use to make the site frustrating for a specific user? Fairly sure that I am on it.

Discouraging users | Manual | XenForo

End-user documentation for XenForo

Discouragement#
At times, banning a person may not be entirely effective. With the design of browsers, it's easy for a problematic user to register a new account.

The principle#
Discouraging aims to make using the site slow and painful for a problematic user, such that they eventually give up and leave. According to the system configuration, each time a user subject to discouragement attempts to load a page, there is a chance that it will fail to load, a change that it will result in a blank page, a change that it will take a very long time to complete etc.

Discouraged users are not made aware that they are subject to this special treatment.

You may fine-tune the diabolical behavior of the discouragement system using the options at Setup > Options > User discouragement and discipline.

Discouraging specific users#
A user can be discouraged by editing the user in the control panel and enabling the Discouraged option. The behavior of the discouragement system can be controlled by options in the User discouragement and discipline group.

Discouraging by IP address#
Alternatively, specific IP ranges can be discouraged. This helps ensure that the behavior is maintained even when the targeted user is not logged in.

I don't post anymore, but I still sometimes browse the site for information about substances I am using. Being on the discouraged list sure makes it hard for me to practice harm reduction by educating myself about the substances I am using.

Yes, Xenforo has that capability, but Bluelight does not use it. I can assure you that we do not use the discourage function because it would indeed interfere with our stated mission of harm reduction.

I’m starting to bald fairly rapidly and I’m not handling it well. I think I’m just going to shave my head clean…

I still have a full head of hair, but I felt the same way when I started going gray around the age of 40. Now that I'm 53, it doesn't bother me at all.

I have a big white streak that goes over the right side of my forehead like a dude from the Sopranos, and I totally own that look!

Whatever you decide to do with your hair (or lack thereof, lol), I'm sure it'll look cool. Just think of Bruce Willis, The Rock, etc. It's macho. :)
 
Sup guys. This thread has really quieted down, huh? I'm having the weekend for myself so I'm planning to take some LSD tomorrow. Haven't really used drugs in a while except alcohol and weed. My gf moved in last year and it's been really nice to live together, everything is going really well and haven't had any problems. The house is a lot cleaner nowadays :)

We traveled to Poland in the spring. Visited Warsaw for a few days and saw Dir en grey live, and then went to Krakow. Visited Auschwitz from there - truly depressing place...
Really enjoyed Poland though.
Life is good, I'm not working atm so having the first free summer in a long time. Feels good man.
 
Oooh, a free summer. That sounds glorious. I'm happy you're making the most of it! How was the show? Is that what inspired you to go to Poland?

I'm gonna shave my head this week, see how it looks and decide if I wanna cling to my hair.

Hope everyone who used to post here is well. I've been busy, but doing alright lately.

Oddly enough I decided I was probably going to cut mine this coming week, but not shave it.
Farewell to a golden era, I guess.
 
Has anyone heard about the mushroom chocolates that made the news recently? People were going to the hospital with fainting and seizures and apparently one death has been attributed to them.

The company claimed, and most articles report, a high level of muscimol in the chocolates, but the FDA tested some and found...you may have guessed it... 4-aco-dmt (as well as 3 kavalactones I think)

Ytf would you just put a ton of random shit like that into a fake mushroom product? People like that ruin it for everyone...
