Nice! I had a San Pedro and a bridgesii and a Peruvian torch years ago. Had them for 4 years, and then one spring day I set them out and didn’t check the weather, and it got down to like 25 that night. Te next morning I was like fuck! Went outside, they were still standing but covered in frost. I brought them in and within 30 minutes they had collapsed into piles of goo :(. Still makes
Me sad to this day that I killed my cactus friends
 
Hey everyone!

Sorry I've been such a stranger. Things have been crazy around here since my dad passed away a couple of months ago. I'm about to (finally) update my dream journal thread. For the first month or so after he was gone, I fluctuated between being up all night and having nightmares and/or night terrors. I honestly didn't even want to dream for a while.

Peace, Love and Faith,
Dreamflyer

Yeah that sucks... Especially since you could put them outside in the summer. Those must have gotten big over the years. I have had a san pedro for a few years now, but since it is only inside in a smallish pot, it doesn't grow as fast as it could..

Ps: recently I started to get away from using cannabis daily. Only vaped once in the past two weeks, allthough I have a decent stash at home. I hope I can keep that up that way. The high I had a few days ago was the best I had in a while. I also got rid of my kratom, that shit made me seriously depressed on the hangover as of late...
 
I remember many years ago purchasing some peyote seeds and plantingy them but fucked if I know what I did with them. :\

Listening to some crushing doom :)
 
yeah I also tried to get peruvianus seeds to sprout but none came up :/ but they have been 2 years from purchase at that time so maybe too old.
 
^ As in doom metal, or Doom, the crust-punk band ?



I have had two San Pedros for a couple of years now. But I have them inside, as I live in an apartment, so they have been growing sloooowly.

Sucks about your cactus, Xork. I imagine what happened to them is similar to what would happen if you froze and thawed a cucumber :P
 
Yeah it did suck, I was really upset for a while. They had grown quite a lot taller, the new growth was thinner than the base because I'm in a forest and I don't get a lot of direct sunlight. I would go outside on the deck where I kept them and move them around every hour to try to catch the sun patches. =D I put them outside in early May, it had been in the 70s and only down to the 50s for a few days so I thought it was time, but we had a freak freeze overnight. :\ They're such cool plants. I had a brugmansia (tree datura) too for a while, it was a small one. The flowers smell SO good. The plant has a strong aura about it, it's hard to explain. I kept the flowers that fell off but never actually went with trying any of them, cuz, you know, datura...

Hey man, I was wondering if you'd return. Nice to see you. :) I hope you're doing as well as can be. Can't wait to see your updated dream journal. I'm gonna try to remember mine from last night, it was vivid... but I had to get up and drive home immediately upon waking and I didn't think about it at all and I'm pretty sure I've lost it.

Nice, I like when I only smoke occasionally, although generally I smoke daily, or almost daily. When I'm hanging out with my girlfriend and it's just the two of us, I usually don't smoke at all because she only does it once in a blue moon so I'd rather be on her level. But any other friends I'm hanging out with, we'll smoke, or if I'm home by myself, in the evening I'll smoke. Good job on dropping kratom too, opiates are a slippery slope, best left alone IMO, unless you're taking them for a time to deal with pain.
 
what I love most about my san pedro is that in the winter, I can practically stop watering it and it just goes dormant and stops growing. in the summer it can take in surprising amounts of water for a cactus (nothing compared to regular plants, but still a bit every couple days) and you see new growth all the time.

can't wait for a living situation where I can grow loads of those things :D

xorkoth, thanks for the nice words. :) I really feel that I need to be sober much more often than I am high, and normally it is the opposite. I also have a few grams of mushrooms in the freezer, but I need to get more clear headed and focused before eating some of those. actually I mostly wanna try microdosing, but not with that brainfog I am usually in. smoking weed so often isn't really that great when you have a history of crippling anxiety and DR episodes plus depression.

still too afraid to go deep with psychedelics again, allthough I really want to.. ;/

I decided yesterday that I'm going to not drink or smoke any cigarettes for at least an entire week, starting today. And that I am going to give up stimulants, period. I've just been feeling myself having more and more trouble feeling balanced and healthy. I did start working out again recently, along with my girlfriend, so that's a good step.

My girlfriend is really into plants, recently her new obsession is orchids. She keeps some of them at my house which I love, there's a gorgeous Zygopetalum hanging about 5 feet away from my desk, it smells incredible and is so pretty. :) I've been keeping some of her plants at my house for years and lately I've been collecting my own. I've gotten 4 different ferns recently, I love ferns. Also some various succulents.
 
Sorry I've been away guys. Bought a new computer case the other day only to find out my motherboard wasn't compatible. Got everything out of my old case only to get frustrated and not have time to put it all back. Finally got around to plugging it all back in last night so I have a computer available again!

I bought a coworker's old RX480 8Gb off him for mega cheap, and got an i5-8600k hexa-core from work for less than MSRP because of a loophole in our price match/promo system at work %) the new case has tempered glass on the front and side, got water cooling for it, a huge 750w semi-modular PSU. Got a Samsung 250Gb SSD for the OS and a 2Tb HDD as well. It has a significant amount of cable management and cooling fans. The new processor will be so fast my GPU will end up as the bottleneck 8o I'm so excited! This build is gonna blow our Xbox One out of the water! Now all I need is a motherboard, wireless adapter, and a 144hz monitor. I'll probably hold off on the monitor, trying to keep the whole build under $800... so psyched though!

I plan to move the old computer to the living room and hook up an HDMI switch so I can use the computer with our 49" tv. Couple it with a wireless mouse/keyboard and I'll have a super smart tv heheh. Also thinking about getting a GTX 1030 or RX 550/560 for the old unit as the R7 250 won't hold up to 4k standards. Been looking for a way to bring my itunes into my living room (my phone only has 16gb storage) and hey... now I can watch HD pronz on the big screen after the missus is asleep, not to mention all the movies and tv shows I have on there I couldn't run on the Xbox before. Wooooo!

I tripped two tabs of 1A-LSD the other night, spaced out by an hour. It was one of the most intense trips I've had in about a year. Very enjoyable and thought provoking. Had a strange come to Jesus moment and grabbed the bible my aunt gave me a decade ago to finally give it a read. It was book marked to the book of Job and shit really blew my mind in the moment heheheh.

Hope all are well! <3
 
[I got my very first credit card today.
I already ordered my ticket for calyx+teebee with it along with a true religion hat, I will have the hat before hte next time this chick at work sees me hopefully. I saw her the first time the other day but she was mainly on the other side of the store so I couldn't stop and talk to her. I did catch her in the area I was in for a minute (as she was walking back to the other side) and I wasn't close enough to really talk to her but I managed to tell her that I liked her stretched ears/tattoos (she's fuckin sexy, stretched ears and tattoos. she isn't caked up but I'm gonna try to make a move on her)
I got a cheap $10 scale from the korean store so I can weigh my reefer when I start buying my own reefer to smoke this week once I get paid (i literally dont know like what a good 8th/gram/any amount really of reefer is supposed to look like. I bought a dime at the club new years but before that I hadn't bought reefer since i was 15 and new years I somehow arrived back to my room i had rented with not only the dime i bought but another small bag of weed that I couldn't explain where it came from.)
I am gonna buy some L here in a week or two to bring down to calyx+teebee in like 2.5 weeks, I'm mad excited, I still have to pay for my transportation down to DC though and also a room for the night, somewhere not in SE though so I dont get killed financially by uber fees around the city. I have to get a more upscale spot than I'm used to for this trip,somewhere in NE or NW(I normally always stay in SE which is the cheapest/most working class area in DC, thats also like where the worst hoods are in the city). U street has to be near a metro stop and hopefully I'll get a room near a metro stop so I can use the metro except for the ride back to the room after i leave the club cause the metro doesn't run 24 hours. I honestly doubt I'll ever hit a rave again without getting a room in whatever city its in cause for real ever since I stopped driving to shows/going with people who are driving down from PA i've gotten used to being able to go from the club directly to the crib to chill and go to sleep (and I dont roll anymore so no comedown-I drop L like right before I walk in the venue and depending on hwo much I drop and how late the show goes/when doors open) within an hour or two without having to drive while coming down/still fucked up. Shit when I was still driving myself to shows (before the 2 years or so where I wasn't able to hit shows other than new years) I was only ever allowed to drive myself to baltimore and while its only 45 minutes esp at night with no traffic where you can speed as much as yo want and you're good basically, the drive back sucked even while still like stimulated from rolling cause its like ugh i just wanna go lay in bed and relax.
I cant wait for that chick to see me in the truie hat. I cant afford to get a pair of truies to go with it yet but I will. I want all the girls at work to see me in designer, rn I wear levis and CK jeans but truies are better you know? I really only want that one girl though (the one I'm gonna ask out). Hopefully sometime within the next week or two (i saw her on saturday, i dont think she works during the week or at least not during the day when I'm there) I'll be able to actually talk to her and learn her name/have her learn mine and I'll ask her for her number when the time is right. She looks like she'd be willing to come to a show too (if she was gonna go on a date with me) and that would be cool as fuck for a date to take a chick out with me to a dnb show so we can dance together and all that.

A couple weeks ago I quit drinking tea every day. Man, I really miss it... green tea is super euphoric for me. :( But I'm still letting myself have a few cups on the weekend, and I'm sleeping better at night. :) We'll see how long this lasts before I cave... lol.
 
Had a hankering for stims last week and ordered a couple grams of 3-fpm but as i started vaping it the compulsive nature kinda took over. 3-fpm is more forgiving than most stims, but kept vaping it all through out the night and kept going the morning after and was starting to grow a bit distressed at my difficulty putting it down. Glad I had some K. Once I had a little K in my system I was able to reign in my consumption. Just a heads up though that K after a stim binge could increase the likelihood of psychosis I gather compared to K alone. I was getting some pretty weird thoughts though nothing particularly alarming. Never mixed K and stims before. Ended up doing a bunch of K and eventually fell asleep 4 hours later. Not eager to do stims for a while though is was enjoyable at times. Was watching a bunch of flakka freakout video and a documentary about McAfee on netflix while compulsively redosing. I think the highlight though was this video from the 70's about PCP.



Man, the expression on that guys face says it all. I can relate so well. Made me cringe a bit thinking of all the times I was dissociated out of my mind in public but kinda unaware of the expression on my face. One person said more than once while I was on 3-MeO-PCP that I had a "veiled" look on my face at time. Didn't quite know what he meant till I saw that video.

I love tea. I grew up in a tea-drinking family and still drink it every day. I'm sipping a cup right now as I write this post :) . Black is my favorite but I've been trying to branch out a bit; I've got a coworker who drinks all kinds of teas, greens, oolongs, fermented teas, and has been kind enough to share her collection with me. Also looking into other types of black tea beyond the generic Ceylon stuff I buy in bulk from a local ethnic grocer. Lapsang Souchong is a new favorite; it has a really powerful smoky flavor that's overwhelming on its own, but as a 1:3 mix with a more neutral variety, it's excellent.

The only problem I've ever had with tea is mild dental fluorosis several years back; apparently the tea plant accumulates fluoride salts. Dentist actually suggested taking a break from fluoridated toothpaste until it went away.

ol willer!
how you doin mane? hows the australia massive doin?
are there kangaroos in melb (i thought thats where you are at...)
for real other than the UK (for the dnb scene) aus/NZ would totally be first choice if I was able to pick anywhere to move to (and Melb would be the first choice place i wanna live in in kangarooland, maybe adelaide or canberra would be 2nd)
Willer you ever been to NZ?
 
^Hey mate :) I'm good, I'm stimmed up! Australia is okay though my mist hated season is coming up. Fuck you winter, Fuck you.

No kangaroo in the city but there's a lot in the outer burbs. There's a really sweet group who have lived near my aunt for years. They seem healthy and relatively unconcerned by humans in general. Fucking weird animals. I was tripping hard once and could not shake the impression that kangaroos are just people in suits :\

How are you? You seem pretty good eh
