Yeah you gotta do some thorough shopping for a car. I currently have an '04 Acura TL, and it was like the 150th car I'd looked at. I love it. I bought it at only 34k miles but now it has 130k miles, it recently stopped feeling very new but it still runs great. My 2 previous cars were a '90 Acura Integra and a '98 Acura Integra. I bought the first one at 126k miles. I actually fell in love with it so much that I decided to learn to drive stick shift (and I was 16, hadn't had my license long). Now I'll only buy a stick shift car, it's so much better.
 
^I used to have a Ford Focus. I dunno, sometimes it seems like it'd be nice to be able to drive places again.


Still, this time I want to try to remember more, causing me hopefully to be able to recall more upon awakening, and perhaps some semi passive lucid dreaming... if all goes well it should take less in a month to get there again.

You know that feeling, that look of things, you get when you realize that you're dreaming? Everyone once in a while, when events dictate it, I get that feeling (IRL), and I know that if I just willed it, I could wake up. But every time, there's something I can't let go of, perhaps it's fear, that so long as I'm dreaming nothing can truly hurt me, no matter how miserable things may get, and then I can feel myself losing lucidity... Maybe it's not entirely a dreaming feeling, it has something of that "this is the real world" feeling of psychs/dissociatives.

It's really intense, and can leave me upset for a while afterwards.

Howabout somethin' a lil' different from usual?

Manual transmission all the way! The only circumstance I would consider giving it up would be for a car with a dual clutch transmission, because those are actually better-performing than a manual. Still... It wouldn't be the same.

My current car is a 2001 bmw 330ci. I bought it with 137k miles for 5500$ (A huge steal!). I'm still loving it, though I've only ticked it up to 153k or so in my two years of ownership-I don't put a lot miles on it since I'm at college.

These cars last forever though. My brother had the same generation (e46 3 series) car and it was running strong at 280k miles. He would have kept it well past 300k if it hadn't been totaled.

I'm lucky, considering that I'm a poor college student, that I get to have a nice car like this--it's only possible because I can avoid maintenance costs by working on it myself. I actually have to do some work on it this weekend.

Just bought a new car! Got a pretty sweet deal on it too. Recently someone totaled my much-loved 1994 Camry coupe, and I have been pretty depressed without a car these past couple of weeks. However, today I was able to get a 1994 Corolla with one owner who bought it with 34 miles on the odometer. She never smoked, and didn't let people smoke in her car, just like me. Now, it has 176,115 miles on it, has still only had that one owner, who was a non-smoker (like me), and I picked it up today for a damn good deal of $1,200. Sounds and runs great, didn't hear a single knock or stutter when it started. I'm so excited :) I have to wait a little while to get hand controls installed, because I can't drive with my feet. But I'll be back on the road before long! No accident is gonna keep me down :)

Wow, that was a good deal! i wish i could find one of those...
My car is a '99 corolla, which I bought with 80 thousand kilometers, 8 years ago. Now it has 370 thousand kilometers and I think I will not buy anothr so soon! I could have spent money on a new car, but nowdays its all plastic junk unless you want to spend a lot of $$ (at least where I live).
 
Yeah manual transmission! :) Not a lot of people drive them anymore but once you get the hang of it you never want to go back. I bought my last car at 34k miles, but in the first year (of commuting 35-45 minutes each direction every day plus 2 trips of 30 minutes each way each week, plus some long trips) it went up to like 115k miles. Brutal. Now it's at 131k, 6 years after that. I wish I wouldn't have had to buy it until I moved, I'd probably be around 55k or less. :\ I love my car though, it's a great car.

My dad has had 2 BMWs, they're great cars too though in his experience they required more maintenance. 280k miles though... that speaks for itself!

In other news, I just received some sunifiram, I wasn't expecting it for a couple of days. Giving it a trial run now at 8mg. We'll see how it goes. :)
 
On the sunifiram... so far my heart rate is a bit increased and I have more energy, and a tiny bit of that wide-eyed stimulant effect. I feel quick and sharper, nothing spectacular but it's nice, and I'm at work with a busy day and looming deadlines so that's good. My mood doesn't seem to be altered thus far but it could be due to being annoyed at the work I have to do. I do feel less resistance to doing said work, because it feels easier. I like it so far. :) Much more noticeable than piracetam, aniracetam, oxiracetam, and phenylpiracetam... maybe even more than hydergine although hydergine also provides a significant mood boost. Good stuff, I got 2 grams which should last me a long fucking time with the dosage being ~8mg. :) I'll try less too, and more at some point.
 
I've starting commuting to school since last semester, so I'll be putting lots of miles on for the next two years, I suspect. >100 miles a day! Well, that's only 25k a year I suppose.

It depends on the car--the 7 series for example is incredibly unreliable. The older 3 series and 5 series, though, aren't likely to leave you stranded as long as you replace wear parts. (Eg cooling system every 60k or so). That being said, no bmw will ever compare to Japanese make cars for reliability. I'm in the rust belt though, and Japanese cars rust--I had to get rid of my last car, a Mazda protege, because it was basically rusting to pieces.

I really like sunifiram too--but it seems to have a different effect on me. It does feel like it increases mental motivation--meaning that I'm thinking about goals for the day, etc. which is great... But it's also very sedating for me, in a similar manner to 4-aco-dmt--I couldn't fall asleep on it but... I don't want to actually DO anything while I'm on it. I also find myself yawning constantly on it. Very strange.

Anyways, it has a wide range of other effects on me--some good, some bad. It seemed to worsen my hppd after a trip--it didn't fade until I stopped taking sunifiram for a few days. It completely screwed with my sleep--making me restless and unable to sleep at night but also, oddly enough, leaving me refreshed and wide awake in the morning even with inadequate sleep.

I definitely noticed significant color enhancement and a mood lift: I found myself just looking around me and saying "This is a really good day. It's so beautiful out!" In particular, I noticed the color red--this enhancement of red specifically has also occurred for me on noopept, mushrooms, and 4-aco-dmt, but not other tryptamine analogues, and not DOC or LSA. Strange.

I'll note that I tended to get fairly severe rebound anxiety a few hours after taking it. Also, I would occasionally get a strange headache--it's a hard to describe, but feels distinct from "regular" pressure headaches or vasoconstriction headaches that other drugs can cause. This headache seemed to be more prominent at higher doses and in combination with stimulants. This worried me because of what I know about glutamatergic excitotoxicity.

I've also seen some research showing a bell curve in dose/response--shooting high won't necessarily increase positive effects. For what it's worth, I've clearly noticed the beneficial effects of sunifiram even from 2-3mg. I've taken as much as 20mg or so in one dose, and usually take 8-12mg. (I use a microscooper, plop it on a scale, and then use it if it's in that range--it's very hard to add or subtract from a given amount because the substance is EXTREMELY compressible. Also note that this would make "eyeballing" an insane proposition. 40mg or 5mg could occupy the same amount of space. )
If I take it with stimulants (2-fma, 2-fa, vyvanse, or ethylphenidate) or psychedelics (DOC, 4-aco-dmt, 5-meo-mipt, 4-aco-met), I use a smaller amount, 3-5mg, because of toxicity concerns. At those smaller doses I notice it's effects, but don't get a headache or increased negative effects.

I was taking it mostly daily for a while, just to get a sense of it, but I'm not doing that anymore--since I'm not yet back in school. If it's messing with BDNF it's probably not a good thing to be taking it unless you're practicing good habits--eg study on it, rather than playing video games. That and I actually found it counter productive in a working environment because of it's sedating properties. I imagine it would be great for sitting down to do an intellectually engaging task--like researching for a project, or reading/comprehending/remembering research papers/philosophy texts/etc. For actual performance enhancement, I think it has some potential (at low doses so it isn't distractingly sedating) but probably less so than a simple dopaminergic like amphetamine.

Anyways, it's definitely the most dramatic nootropic I've tried in terms of effects. It definitely DOES something, unlike piracetam etc where the effect is subtle/gradual. The only other nootropic I've found to be similarly dramatic would be noopept.

I take it by this quote that sunifiram is a nootropic laong the lines of the racetams? Dumb question, but I'm just really high and had to make sure :P
 
Yeah, it's a raceram, as opposed to a racetam. Definitely interesting, I doubt I'll take it again tomorrow though. I probably dosed a bit too high but something about it felt a little weird. And I did get pretty anxious later on, I started to get all obsessive about a certain thing in my thoughts again and it was driving me nuts, fortunately talking to a good friend has straightened me out. :)

Of course that happened for 2 days straight last week without sunifiram, but still, a bit apprehensive about trying it again. Maybe Monday with half the dose (4mg instead of 8mg).

It's quite possible you took too much. If you're feeling apprehensive about taking even 4mg, maybe take 1 or 2 mg tomorrow. I think even that amount will have an effect--though likely subtle enough to be "background." I say this because a lot of people seem to report that, while they notice effects from the first time taking it, it seemed to be better on day 2 or 3 (meaning more color enhancement, mood lift, etc).

I'd also be interested to hear about how you sleep tonight. Sunifiram's impact on my (and others') sleep is really fascinating to me. Restlessness at night is neither interesting nor good, of course, but the feeling of refreshed wakefulness in the morning is pretty darn cool.

Anyways folks, about an hour and a half ago I took 55mg 4-fa, 30mg 5-mapb, and 4mg 4-aco-dmt. Now just 20 minutes ago I took 30mg 4-fa, 20mg 5-mapb, 8mg 4-aco-dmt, and 1mg 5-meo-mipt.

I'm still not yet come up on the booster dose, but I'm feeling pretty nice--and very talkative--from the first dose. It's mild at these low figures, but it's a Thursday--I'm only even taking this because I'm going in to work late tomorrow, and there are a bunch of people at my house--something of a house party, I guess. Except everyone's outside, in a big tent made from blankets, with a fridge and a tv and xbox, and a huge speaker system set up. Pretty hilarious, in my opinion. My brother does this every year--it's a fantasy basketball draft that turns into a blanket-tent sleepover on the lawn. Anyways, thought I'd share because it's the kind of quirky thing you folks here in PD might appreciate, and because I have a drug-induced desire to bare my soul at the moment. :)

I hope you all have a good night, PD. I'm pretty new to bluelight, and I'm not super close with any of you individually, but I've come to genuinely care about your lives, through your posting. It's so cool that a place like this exists, though I'm sorry I missed the "good old days" that some of you folks speak of.
 
That party sounds really fun man. :)

Isn't it awesome that this place exists? PD wasn't always this way, around 2006 it really started to change into the way it is now, and I love it with all my heart. I've got a lot of good friends on here including some who have become real life friends. It's such a beautiful and supportive community. <3

Enjoy your trip! :)
 
Even for a lesser-contributor as myself, PD is still a pretty good place to hit up for some gossip hahaha
 
you guys are super supportive :)

Its weird but we are back together, for now at least. Xorkoth I can agree entirely about her trying to control my life, it's brutal. It got to the point where she wouldn't even let me listen to music I just wanted to listen to because I hadn't heard it yet. She also is making me stop doing drugs as much, which is mainly just me attempting to limit my THC intake and do MXE less. She also hates being around me when I'm tripping because I'm apparently 'egotistical' and a whole bunch of other shit. I have a trip planned though, I'm going to take 15mg 4-aco-DMT and 17mg 2c-b at the same time and hopefully jam out at my new apartment when I'm moved in. I'm sure after that it will be a while before I wanna trip again anyways. I usually like to wait more than a week after rolling to trip again, but my last roll didnt really feel nearly as taxing as I thought it would have. The .5 mg of klonopin I took to come down felt more dumbing than the MDMA lol. you guys are nice beyond all expectations though really, thanks a lot <3
 
Hey man, no problem, we're a supportive community here and you're part of it. <3

That sounds really sketchy about the music listening control, to be honest. That's just crazy man. It makes sense that if she thought you were doing too many drugs that she'd try to get you to slow that down, I can understand that. But she doesn't want you to listen to music that you want to hear that you haven't heard? Bad sign man, bad sign.

My ex used to always call me egotistical when we'd fight, it was weird because I was just trying to defend myself. Like, she'd snap on me in really inappropriate ways for stuff that didn't even remotely call for that kind of reaction, and if I didn't just say okay, you're right, I'm sorry, she'd tell me my ego was so huge that it was hurting our relationship, and to stop ego tripping, stuff like that. I'd mostly just cram it down (which caused me a lot of emotional damage and self-esteem issues) because the fight wouldn't ever be over until I did, I could never convince her she was being ridiculous. I mean, to stand up for yourself isn't being egotistical, it's being a human and having a backbone. And the weirdest thing is that when she met me I was a super pushover and I always let people walk all over me and she was always trying to help me with that and stand up for me (which ultimately she did in many ways). But when it came to her, she just walked all over me worse than anyone else in my life ever has and got mad if I stood up for myself.

I'm not sure that applies to your situation, for all I know you are egotistical when you trip, but just from what I know of you on here, my guess is she's using that as an excuse to get you to stop tripping because it makes her uncomfortable.

Women can be crazy, sad but true. I think it's the hormones and I'm glad as a guy I don't have to deal with that. I've met some that don't seem to be, but then again people get to a whole new level with the person they're in a relationship with. You show your worst to the people you love the most, but hopefully you also show your best and hopefully that's the norm, and not the exception. When you find that you're in a situation where you're often bringing the worse out in each other, then IMO it's time to move on.

Had an awesome night last night, 37mg of 2C-B and then at the later part of the peak I added an unknown amount of 4-HO-MET (I rinsed the bag). Then when that came up we finally smoked... listened to Paul Simon Graceland which was an amazing experience, and then a bunch of other great music. The closed-eye visuals for me were really intense, some of the most intense I've ever had. I went on a serious mental voyage too, through all sorts of emotions and thoughts. Quite therapeutic. :)

The 2C-B was nice but a little underwhelming, and adding the 4-HO-MET basically made me trip a second time, but in some sort of 2C-B/tryptamine merge that was really excellent.
Click to expand...

That's a combo I'd really like to try but only have a single 30mg dose of 4-ho-met and want to take it own its own to see how exactly how the effects compare to 4-ho-det. I do have plenty of 4-aco-det and am planning to plug some along with some 2c-b at some point. I 100% agree with how great the 2c-b/trytamine synergy is. I have always had great trips from 2c-b+dmt usually with some ketamine added into the mix. The lack of mental depth from the 2c-b is what I believe makes it mix so well with dmt since you still feel the true character of the dmt without things getting too jumbled up yet the other effects of the 2cb add a special spark to it.


I had a very nice trip on Monday from 22mgs of 2cb plugged plus a little bit of K. I ended up taking a nice bike ride right after it stopped storming outside which Iv'e been getting in the habit of doing during allot of trips.
 
Yeah, the synergy was beautiful, the closed-eye inner voyage and visuals were among the best I've ever had from anything, very beautiful, organic, and meaningful. It consisted of amazing fractal mandalas that would transform into full-color brain movies illustrating the concepts brought up by the music, and tied deeply into emotional and thought patterns. A true trip. I've never gotten anything even close to as deep from either 2C-B or 4-HO-MET alone. Generally 4-HO-MET is very body/emotion-centered for me. The combo was extremely emotional, not surprisingly.

I'm going to trip tomorrow, not sure on what but I'm seeing Dark Star Orchestra. Whatever it is it'll be a great time. I think I'm going to take DOC in the morning and go exploring a waterfall and then at night I'll boost it with something or other. Too bad I just ordered more MXE today, that would have been great to add a bit of.
