I'm guessing you did a STB? Make sure you've used enough lye to properly break down the vegetable matter. Also, when you're mixing the nonpolar solvent with the extract, be careful to do it very gently. As they say, "roll" the liquids around -- never shake or splash.

All this talk about 25I recently makes me very excited to try mine (and the 25C and 25D). Gotta let last night's revelry integrate first though. It was a great night. I have the same reaction as TAC a lot of the time it seems; last night for a while I was like "This is the best, this is better than candy-flipping!" But after the initial hour or so rush I decided it was just good. Lol.

Okay, I was joking the other day when I said I said it was synchronicity that my 'goodies' arrived just in time for Tool, but maybe I was right. My goodies were 25C and -D, my first tastes of the NBOMes. 600ug of 25C at the show was fairly mild but a great music enhancer, and supplementing with 12mg 4-aco-dmt gave a nice 'psychedelic body buzz' for the show. I was gonna wait 2 weeks to get a feel for each one at 0 tolerance, but I got impatient and decided I'd just try a larger dose of the -D tonight. 1.6mg has been a very enjoyable +++ thus far, 2-ish hours in. I think the 25*-NBOMes are easily going to be my favorite psychedelic phenethylamines; I think 25I will be next on my list of acquisitions.
 
Correct on all counts. I think the problem is I left it up to a couple friends who've never done it before to stir up the jugs once a day and while I specifically mentioned not to shake them, they still may not have been as gentle as they should have. I cleaned one up a bit by adding more water+lye but it still isn't perfectly clear and now I'm out of lye with 3 jugs left. Do you think just letting them sit for another few days will allow the silt (presumably powdered bark) to settle out?
 
thanks Never Knows Best ;)
lol

the universe has but two forces.... creation and entropy.... the fact that anything exists today means that the force of creation outweighs the force of destruction...

i couldnt say what effects you so much ~

i have been practicing this in my daily routines, and while meditating so

did i hear something once about adding a bit of salt to break up emulsion layers? IDK google it i've never actually done the extraction just read a bunch
 
NKB, does that mean you have better excuses for your behaviour? :)

cheers PD!

i think i ate too many oranges for this late hour... but its a fairy tale of a weather outside, its been snowing for the past 24h and it looks beautiful. i wish i could celebrate this beauty. with some acid. the weekend seems too far away
 
I did a bunch of late nights at work and traveling and now I have a sinus infection or something. Lame. I feel like crap. There might be some hope on the new job front but I don't want to jinx myself so I am not going to think about it.

So I was asking myself the great question "How have psychedelics changed me?" and, well, certainly they've affected the things I think, but I don't think my actual behaviors and actions have changed at all. nbd;js
Click to expand...

Oh, yes. Haha. I ask myself that all the time.

Here's the problem:

It's an unanswerable question. "Change" is, in your usage of the word, the difference between what is, and what would-have-been. It's impossible to really know what would-have-been, had you not ever taken any psychedelic drugs.

But it's certainly a fascinating thought experiment.

What would your life be like RIGHT NOW if you had never taken any psychedelics? To me, the question is almost like asking, "what does a two-sided plane figure look like?" Psychedelics are so ingrained in my life that it doesn't really make sense to imagine my life without them.

Time, heat, and salt, are the solutions I seem to recall. Do a search on the DMT Nexus. :)



Neon methoxetavision... it's the real deal. Colors are really bright on MXE.

Before I tripped, I behaved like an anxious misanthrope, after I tripped, I still behaved like an anxious misanthrope, but it was no longer reinforced by extreme delusional thought patterns (well, at least not as much so).


Also, screw your damn mantras panic, I listened to a few related links of what you posted and for the past two days my head has been full of om aim hreem kleem chamundaye viche's. It doesn't stop. You know Jesus said not to pray as the pagans with vain repetitions, but I don't think the dude appreciated them properly.

Also also, pretty damn drunk. But I do that. Debating whether to be honest and use rest of funds honestly or buy much H and some crystal. Both of the options appeal to different parts of me, arrgh.

Yeah, but you still don't know for certain what effect psychedelics had on you.

Correlation ≠ causation.

Perhaps psychedelics just happened to coincide with a process of maturity and self-discovery, in which you shed your delusional thought patterns, regardless of your drug use?
 
I've considered this, but I don't think so. For example, I often now think back to a +4 experience I had when I find myself starting to get lost in negative thought patterns and it helps some. Plus if I didn't do psychs (I was sorta obsessed with them for a couple of years before I started) I'm certain that my thoughts might have been different. Then again, it wasn't until I started messing with addiction-like dosing with GBL that the feeling of my youth that I wasn't living but sitting on life's sidelines dissapated.

I dunno, I guess my conclusion is that experiencing very positive feelings towards humanity in general that i hadn't previously must have effected how I think a lil' even if not enough to change my actions (which may be based on more intense and immediate experiences). It all remains speculative though. If we include dissociatives I think that is more likely to produce a positive in changing things, since the feeling of fulfillment they inspired probably did change behavior by letting fully derail myself from what personal narrative(s) I had hitherto.

Random complaint: Local CVS no longer sells robo-gells. I really don't wanna try going for two bottles of syrup again, but do wanna confirm whether or not DXM still produces desirable effects proper at higher dosages. <sigh> Oh well. Really I mostly wanted dissociation but that can wait till I eventually buy MXE or some shit.

Movies recently seen (does anyone else have any comments no them?), Midnight in Paris (I loved it), Dective Dee and the mystery of the phantom flame (meh, but amusing), Rango (liked it quite a bit).

Hmm. Are you saying that dissociatives basically freed you from the obligation to conform to your own image of who you *should* be -- and that they allowed you to be a more honest, genuine, "you"? Because you weren't shackled to that picture of yourself you had painted in your head?
 
Perhaps, but the effects haven't been so positive as your phrasing would suppose. If anything, they've helped me throw off any expectations and plans for myself, and I can just exist vaguely as a freeloader layabout, and not care that much. Selfishly monopolizing what funds I receive to become not sober. Honestly I've come to think it's very important to have a personal narrative, as much as it can cause you to be caught up in bullshit that isn't real, it also makes you accomplish a lot. As of now, I don't believe in accomplishment or any of that shit, but maybe it'd be better if I did? I dunno.

Right now I'm look at the negative side of it, but had I been in a position of sustainability (I.E. employed and with hope of meeting financial needs) it mighty be a positive thing like you've intimated.

Everything always depends on the situation. For now I'm contented with being a master of indifference and nonaccomplishment. But in the future? I have none aside homelessness unless I shape up.

PS - If you only start feeling the spins w/ eyes closed but can ignore the feelings when eyes are open, that's a good level of drunkenness to be at, methinks. Also, 1:54 of this song starts probably the corniest riff ever written, but I love it anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeGzDejmOcQ&feature=related

Salt makes the aqueous layer 'more polar' by increasing ionic strength. The increased difference in polarity can break the emulsion. As well, some undissolved salt grains may break the emulsion bubbles by hitting them.
