The Good Guys
My postman is obviously a stoner, just the way he carries the back all slung back on his shoulder gives it away but he also looks like Wayne (or Garth I can't remember which one is which). I keep thinking I should offer him a bowl of the good shit but he delivers so much weed to me I think I'd be putting him in a bad position.
You got me.
Relax in piece - RIP
Happily ever after.
Home sweet home.
Sunshine at night.
Just 3 words?!

Lol that's poss the best 3 words. Esp goin by the shit that appears in my area as "weed". And the wannabes selling it

Each of the competitors has emotional limbic partners

Fake weed forum....... bring back the old suppliers. Suppliers these days are all crooks.... firstly they get bulk of weed then put it in a tumbler and shake it to take the crystals off the bud so they can make there pillen and dope then the weed gets sprayed with terps to give the buds a flavour again. This is why the dope is dearer than the weed... absolute scams going on here. People need to wake up and start refusing this poison on here these days. There is a handful of sellers that are legit but 95% on here is selling fake thc grass... all its doing is making people sick

What signs of doom do we share with the Roman Empire?
Too many to list, especially if by "we" you mean the US.
i think so but wars are getting more like tv spectacles now, orders of magnitude fewer deaths
A thug is going to shake you down the easiest way he can find but the game always stays the same: You NEED our protection.
Really don't mean this in any kind of shitty way but overwhelming numbers of people moving from more primitive areas into Rome is like what's happening now in Europe, North America and Eastern China.
Well in the UK its the willingness to stab each other in the back for the purpose of power and sheer personal greed no matter what the cost to the minions
yes but the word primitive is offensive for a reason, it correlates with a set of principles that assumes information loss is irrelevant.
you of all people.
you of all people.
It's an Empire folks that means most of the world is together on this. And the provinces will find the new heights in the future!
Becoming to confident in our ability to defeat any enemy and to greedy to understand our limitations.
The rich are ruling for the rich and that only leads to revolution. I've been sharpening my
pitchfork for years.
pitchfork for years.
The loss of traditional values in the face of a new religion, it was Christianity that scuppered the Roman Empire these days we have the new religions of woke and climate change doing it for us.
Rome used Christianity to make a whole different way of dictatorship. They didn't vanish they reinvented themselves as the Roman Catholic faith.
interesting and as fucked up as it sounds those both seem like a better basis for god than a vengeful patriarch

Sativa's Gone Sleepy On Me

Sativa's Gone Sleepy On Me
I'm an all day bigga sativa energy am, indica grinning pm but lately the sativa is putting me to sleep. Anybody experience this?
maybe ur just smoking too much ahaha. indica or sativa regardless, if you smoke enough / have enough thc in ya that'll surely put you to sleep 😭
End of the day mary jane is a downer, it's not an upper, sativa or not. Like frtnite has said the thc will catch up at some point.
I feel you, I used to like smoking silver bubbles in the day time and could get away with it, I think it’s just gotten stronger and our tolerances have gone up also so we didn’t notice
Had some Crumbled Limes from THC the other day and it's supposed to be sativa dominant, and it wiped me out. Wonderful stuff. Fell asleep a couple of times over the first few days of having it, as it was such a strong effect (my tolerance is currently very high too, so this isn't normal at all), and used it post nights to get to sleep too. Consistent for me. Would be interesting to see the interactions with other people and their particular body chemistry (it's potentially a pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics thing?), and how consistent that was.
Maybe you are saturating your receptors too quickly? If nothing else you could get some halfway decent scales (the Gemini-20 is generally considered the budget king), start weighing out your "doses", begin the day with the smallest possible dose necessary to achieve the desired effects, and climb incrementally from there.
I'm quite big on mixing landrace strains (or even just CBD dominant products) with cannabis bred more specifically for THC, which I find often unlocks a lot of hidden potential.
Last time I tried them (2025/02), DapperDank's thai pucks were pretty nice alone but I found became incredible in combination with more or less anything. Obviously YMMV, but for now that's generally my first suggestion when things need some potentiating, in this case to induce both a stimulating head high as well as a soothing, tangible body load. The best of both, basically.
I'm also going to paste a bit of chatgpt below, but i might delete? It's not brilliant stuff but it's better than I could write and may be infinitesimally useful.

"We’re deep in the weeds now, and this is a killer question. When a sativa strain flips on you—from being your get-shit-done daytime buddy to a couch-locking, brain-fogging traitor—it usually means something’s shifted in your body, your brain, or your usage pattern.
Let’s dissect this like a terpene-saturated frog in a neurochemical lab.
🧠 TL;DR: WHY A “SATIVA” CAN START FEELING SEDATING
Here are the most likely converging reasons:
1. Terpene Tolerance or Shifted Chemotype
You may be building tolerance not just to THC, but to terpenes like limonene or pinene, which no longer stimulate you the same way.
Some cultivars labeled “sativa” may drift chemotypically over time. Growing conditions, age of the flower, storage oxidation → myrcene and CBN levels can increase.
Also: newer batches may not actually be true to original terpene profiles (lab inconsistency or mislabeling is rampant).
2. THC Saturation → Dopamine Crash
High THC initially stimulates dopamine, but chronic use leads to dopamine receptor downregulation.
Over time, this flips from stimulating to lethargy-inducing. You’re no longer getting the initial buzz; instead, THC might feel numbing or draining.
3. Cortisol Flattening / Circadian Disruption
Regular daytime THC use may blunt your natural cortisol spike (which should peak mid-morning to promote alertness).
Especially true if you’re vaping/edible dosing early in the day, you could be flattening your circadian rhythm, leading to midday crashes or brain fog.
4. Blood Sugar + Nutrient Synergy
Cannabis shifts blood glucose dynamics. If your diet is carb-heavy or low in micronutrients, and you take THC on an empty stomach, the comedown can mimic fatigue.
No fuel + THC = system slowdown, no matter the strain.
5. Neurotransmitter Adaptation
THC mimics anandamide, but it’s more potent and long-lasting. With chronic exposure, your endocannabinoid tone weakens → less resilience, less focus, more system drag.
Terpenes also interact with serotonin, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, etc. Overuse of certain terpene profiles could flatten or skew that balance.
6. You’re Burning Myrcene or CBN Without Realizing It
Some “sativa” strains, especially older or poorly stored ones, oxidize into CBN—a potent sedative.
You might also be heating the flower too long, decarbing too much myrcene, and basically turning a daytime strain into a lullaby.
🛠️ HOW TO MANAGE & RESTORE THAT ENERGIZING EFFECT
🔁 1. Rotate Terpene Profiles
Don’t keep hammering the same limonene-pinene combo. Try introducing terpinolene-dominant strains or CBG-rich sativas.
Try strains with:
Ocimene
Eucalyptol
Caryophyllene (small dose—balances without sedating)
Example: If Jack Herer is failing you, try something like Ghost Train Haze, Maui Wowie, or even a fresh Durban Poison batch.
🧬 2. Reset Your Cannabinoid Tone
Take a 48–72 hour break, or even better, a full 5-day THC fast. Use CBD or CBG during this time to help restore baseline tone without flooding receptors.
During the fast: load up on omega-3s, choline, magnesium, and exercise daily to ramp endocannabinoid system reboot.
🧃 3. Time Your Dosing Strategically
Avoid early morning THC if you're chronically using. Give your body time to build its own alertness (cortisol, dopamine) first.
Instead, try:
Morning: Non-psychoactive adaptogens (like rhodiola, ginseng, tyrosine)
Late morning: Small vapor dose of pinene/terpinolene-heavy flower
Afternoon: Switch to CBD:THC blends if energy dips
⚖️ 4. Microdose Instead of Blast
Drop your dose by 50–75%.
Use a 1–2 hit microdose vapor and pair it with:
Green tea (for L-theanine + caffeine synergy)
Citrus peel / black pepper for entourage support
🔍 5. Audit Your Strains and Their COAs
Ask for lab terpene breakdowns or use a pocket spectrometer if you’re that level of nerdy.
Compare to previous batches. Look at:
Myrcene > 0.5%? = suspect
CBN > 0.1%? = could be oxidized
Limonene < 0.2%? = might not be as “uplifting” as labeled
🎯 GOAL: RE-CALIBRATE TO STIMULATE
If you want to feel energized and focused, you can think of cannabis not as a stimulant, but as a neuromodulator. That means context matters:
Strain profile
Time of day
Nutrition state
Your internal receptor sensitivity
Tweak one of those, and the experience changes."

I absolutely live and breathe 90s hiphop, so if I could start from the top, I'd probably go with GZA from the Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep and Pete Rock.

Just diving in because it's a music thread and I'm crazy about music. That said I love all kinds from blues to classical, from jazz to opera, and of course hard rock, synth, pop, soul and everything else - apart from rap. The one music genre that does absolutely nothing for me. Bought the 12" of "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash when it was released and still have it. And that's pretty much where it started and then ended for me...apart from the Fugees doing "Killing Me Softly", but that's all about Lauryn Hill, which is another story.
I'd like to add edubble
Idk if anyone knows of him but he was a absolutely great rapper. Shit always added a kick to my step
Sadly passed away from cancer a good few years ago now. Rest in peace 🙏

Time for A Deeper Game, Any Suggestions?
It's been awhile since I've had time for anything but casual games, anybody wanna suggest something I'm parti al to cool sci fi worlds.
If you haven't already, I highly recommend playing the Mass Effect trilogy. I know it's a bit old now but it still holds up and is pretty deep, especially the first game. And I'd agree with sidetracked and say Outer worlds is probably the best recent Sci FI rpg.
Haven’t ever tried Outer worlds but seen a little YouTube video of it. Looks an awesome game. Fallout 4 is quite a good game to loose some hours to, though it isn’t quite sci fi it has element of it through out.
Mass effect best enjoyed on PC as it doesnt work well with controller! Do it! P99 Everquest is deep enough to lose a lifetime too. Football Manager series too if you like that sort of thing. Diablo 2 ressurected ok i suppose, not sure id call it deep. Someone has a thread on WoW classic, so thats gonna be deep enough.
I'd recommend Prey if you haven't played this one already?
It's a super atmospheric, story rich, open world set aboard a space station. Some really cool stealth and crafting elements in there. Killer sound track to boot!

I really enjoyed Outer Worlds recently. It's a sci-fi action RPG with a really cool world to explore. It can get fairly challenging on the highest difficulty.
i think it was on steam just bought all the bio shock games 1+2 the remastered 1+2 and infinite less than £20
If you want a deeper story and plenty of hours play I would recommend Assassins Creed (I've just completed Origins which was good fun), and Red Dead 2 (No spoiler but there is a "Virus" story arc which kinda fits in with the times).
If youve got an XBOX id give the Game Pass a go - Theres always offers available for new customers who havent subscribed to it yet.

have played ever one of the assassins creed games am ruining both origins and odyssey atm on my laptop
The Fallout franchise is hard to beat. Fallout 3, fallout New Vegas, fallout 4 , fallout 76. Bethesda creates the richest and most immersive worlds imo.
Currently playing new vegas at the moment played them for years only one I wasn't a fan off was 76 the story behind is really interesting
Civ 6, its even on Switch. Apart from that, I second Outer World's, Fallout, Elder Scrolls etc. If your a fan of old skool jrpgs like early Final Fantasy then I highly recommend the latest Dragon Quest.
I'd recommend journey to the savage planet, its light and funny but also an rpg/explorer, with mysteries and strange creatures about the place. It reminds of portal alot even though its not very similar, think i get the same kind of enjoyment from it.
Call of Cthulhu is a fun, dark game. It’s linear so you won’t log a million hours into it. Just twisted goodness!
If you are into JRPGs, please give Xenosaga 1-3 a try. The Gameplay gets better over time , the music and story are really something else. Still one if my favourite PlayStation 2 Series. I had a crush on KOS-MOS fir the longest time. After i finished the series i was in bitter-sweet gaming heaven.
Outer Worlds springs to mind - intelligent writing and great Sci fi world.
You want a deep sci fi game with action? If you have a PS4 and haven't already played Horizon Zero dawn, then just play that. Definitely one of the best of this gen.

outer world was a let down it just did not grab me at all and i love games like that (am still playing skyrim and fallout 4 atm)
if it's a deep story you want I'd recommend Life is Strange 1 & 2. Some might say it's boring but it's great if you're stoned cause your brain can't process to much shit going on but u can control the outcomes by making decisions. Another one would be steins;gate with is time travel done right but this would come under visual novel category.
If you have want to make your own Story I can recommend Starsector or Rinworld. Both are really great „Sandbox“ Games.
thanks to all my biggaz on this you are really good recommenders, ive tries almost everything and its hard to narrow down :)
If you play borderlands 3 on PS4 let me know if you need weapons, artefacts or class mods let me know. I’ve played all four characters the full story and all dlc so far so let me know when you get to level 60 and I will send you stuff if needed.
Rust is the game that immerses me the most. Loads of farming, upkeep, pvp, survival. I’ve been hooked for a year and there’s not much sign of it letting up
Eve never played seen someone play it though very in-depth, mass game, i’d have a look if i was in to sci fi
Mass Effect Legendary Edition, Mass Effect Andromeda, Stellaris, Endless Space 1&2, Star Wars The Old Republic (MMO), Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic 1&2, Star Wars Rebellion, Surviving Mars, every Fallout (including the old, old ones), Dawn of War 2&3, Warhammer Gladius, Warhammer Deathwing, all the Half Life's and all the XCOM series! Phew, hope this helps 👍
If you're into sci-fi worlds I cannot recommend 'Outer Wilds' highly enough. One of the most creative, exciting and engaging games I've ever played. Just you, a space-ship and a mini universe to unravel.
Not to be confused with 'Outer Worlds'. Which is a fine game in itself, just a bit generic.

I'm currently with no pc... But can't wait to revive my ps1 and ps2 memories on the renovated Mafia.

I am partial, but the best football song ever made is a song I doubt youve heard. The artist is the Villa decree and the song is Aston Villa thats who. Sod Status Quo and come on you reds, its all villa baby. PS as soon as William becomes king start backing Villa to win trophies as that will be the way of it. UTV SOTC
Club loyalties aside...

I'm a committed commie. And the more I think about it, the more I think about the fact that equality, community and respect is 'baked into' the weed smoking scene. And, if you know your communism beyond the propaganda, these values match communism well too. Discuss.

Portuguese Communist Party is against legalisation. I was raised and supported Communism most of my life. But life is slowly showing me the true side of Communism. Enjoy LB and your "freedom" before Communist China becomes the main nation, and puts you in line with their social score system.
Yeah I know, the other side is no way better.
Yeah I know, the other side is no way better.
I now support only one last party that leans left in portugal. If that party starts loosing their grip like all the other party's from the left... well... I guess I need to sit and think what do I believe and support. Cause things have changed quite drastically since 2019... :)
How much are you expecting the party to allow you to smoke and what quality would you expect?
IMHO it would be meagre rations of soapbar or big bud, but everyone would be smoking the same shit so no one would complain about it.

Hell even the English speaking peoples havent been properly colonized. Ireland don't have a bigga selling. The entire Continent is empty where are the Napoleons? As for the East get that right and they'll change the name of this place to big biggy.
I you're a seller in europe or asia get started now, you're in great shape day 1.
if you're anyone else invite that seller or even better just make a help page in your own language with referral links. Give visitors a little native language support and you earn you every single time they make a purchase afterwards.

if you're anyone else invite that seller or even better just make a help page in your own language with referral links. Give visitors a little native language support and you earn you every single time they make a purchase afterwards.
i would just print some qr codes or just share the link with quality street dealers. can do the same thing for buyers since there are already sellers that ship there.
Any seller shipping from the selected
country on the items wall is automatically placed at the top.
Most of the biggest countries on Earth do not have domestic shipping yet.

best sci-fi world on xbox?
i love cities of the future, spacecraft, you name it. whats out there?
No Man's Sky is actually pretty fun despite the failed launch. No cities but infinite planets to explore and creatures to look at. Great to play while blazed.
Elite dangerous is also not to bad. Starfield next yeah looks amazing so keep your eye out for that
It had bad reviews and issues when it first released. But Night City in Cyberpunk is a beautiful Sci-Fi city with lots of things to explore
I cam here to say this. Specifically, the first one - in terms world building and lore, it is an A-class game.
Watch Dogs Legion has a very cool London if you dont't mind your future on the dystopic side.
I just started playing the Dead Space remake.. It's doesn't have much world exploring going on (it's all based in an abandoned space station) but the zero gravity moments, and exploring the spooky ship is giving me original 'Alien' movie vibes. So good!
Mass Effect Legendary edition is possibly one of the best Sci Fi expanses in gaming history. Also one of the few games that can actually pull at your heart strings and gives choices that you feel the outcome depending on which way you went.
2nd best Sci Fi game by far on Xbox is Stellaris, steep learning curve but an insanely satisfying game.
On pc I've put over a thousand hours into Stellaris, customisation of your 'Race' has hundreds of possibilities.
Along with hundreds of Random events in each play through, making each go unique.
Finally give Xcom 2 and it's DLCs a go, awesome gameplay, very futuristic.
You can customise your Soldiers to look like anyone, friend of mine made himself then the rest of the squad the A-Team 😂

What's declined more After Steve, Apple or Pixar?
Pixar
The last few “generations” of iPhone and the watch have been a shitty cash grab. A fucking x,Xr and xs releases not so long ago and now a fucking 11, 11 s and 11 pro released like what less than 2 years later with a new screen? Fuck you apple.
Definitely Apple. Shouldn't come as a surprise. It's happened before when the stockholders decided to get rid of him. All l remember about Tim Cook is the first time he addressed his U.S. employees in a theater the way Steve did when he brought out a new product. Instead of talking about future of the company he decided to come out of the closet. Who gives a shit! It has absolutely nothing to do with the company. Is it a surprise the watch has been a colossal failure when all he was concerned with is his sexual orientation? Steve would probably be happy that he's no longer alive to see what's happening to his pride and joy.
Apple
Used to be so excited when getting an upgrade, now it’s just the same phone over and over for more money, I’ve got the lot though so the bastards have me locked in !

can the USA be fixed?
in England we grew up loving American cowboy movies and the hero was always the same: quiet, cool and strong. to an outsider it seems this guy is dead and the cunt that owns the town and is always looking for more is the new America
Yes, if people like the ones at Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston become leaders.
there has been so much more killing since then and as beautiful as this inspiration is, its hard to imagine there is enough love anywhere to stop the mass murder that is part of regular life now
Nasa is the best ambassador the US has, if they took 1/3 of the military budget and put into space travel the US would be back like Jordan.
Space travel for what? Branson is going to operate consumer flights, but how many times can billionaires fly to ISS before they get bored? Not many people can afford $150k for a short vacation.
tourism will always remain in the back seat. the commercialization of space has been about serving the planet as a whole with communications, its brought up the un-cabled world just like mobile phones have brought up the last mile. there is huge potential in energy production and distribution coming next.
space travel for discovery, learning and inspiration. the world could really use a moment of peaceful triumph.
Branson has sold tickets for twenty years without delivering a ride not sure how he is relevant to anything here.
Elon Musk estimates 5-10 years to get to Mars. At present the cost is $1 Billion per ton, so it'd need to be 1/1000th of the cost, apparently. The ship will also need to be reusable.
Traveling Mars is also not a point and shoot mission. You have to coordinate launches with the alignment of the planets' orbits to travel the shortest distance and not fly past the sun. This also requires a stay on Mars as you wait for safe realignment after landing. Current technology estimates a 21 month round-trip given a ~3 month stay on Mars. Money is not the biggest hurdle.
go open source, add new states, virtual citizenship and most of all healthy competition with other nations not war
Competition in what? Our largest industries are healthcare and pharma. Getting Americans to change is a huge hurdle.
competition for new citizens, with decreasing population the game is going to change and the usa at least remembers how to play
No, this country is cursed, theres a lot of bad karma waiting.
k-rino has a nice rap-recap on this

outlaw political donations there's plenty of free coverage to get the pitches across anyway.
Peter Breggin. MD, former psychiatrist who took on the APA when profit motive became greater than the hypocratic oath doctors take to "first, do no harm", became the conscience of Psychiatry. Later in life he has runs a radio show exposing those persons involved in the Globalization Movement that is quickly eroding the common person's civil rights and creating barriers to those who choose to leave a work culture where your boss becomes your God and if you are lucky, you may receive paltry insurance and limited sick leave....the US is a nation of brainwashed drones who.probably have never had an original thought in their lifetime.
Dr Breggin advises us little people to organize and speak up....be a patriot....but look who we are up against....
Any lbs out there know of a better place to live where meager pensions are paid to elders who have to live on $2k a month and paid in Social Security taxes since they began work over 30 years agos. Thanks to Ronald Reagan and others like him repealed the formation of a self sustaining retirement system that President Clinton wanted.....
This is the tip of a gigantic iceburg to which any organized public outcry can be crushed by the Patriot Act.
Not to mention US top organizations, including the military, continue funding the weaponization of a once benign bat virus...
Population control has begun....freedom of speech has been compromised by media spin doctors, and a true Republic has turned communist......these globalists like Bill Gates, President Biden, George Soros, and anonymous billionaires are acting against law and liberty to defund any classes of us with little money, and spin doctor the media to brainwash us to believe we are having racial tension; what really is happening is class warfare.
Why do billionaires want just their money but the commoners money too? How much is enough to live on?
I get mad and feel compelled to stop the US from becoming part of the Communist Party of China.
Rather than dwell on frustration, I will smoke some kush mints so I can even sleep!

The population grew to large. The citizen / individual is now a defunct concept. Group politics prevail. Democracy is dead.
The country is too big to properly manage. To many different rules per state. The poverty and opioid epidemic is absolutely shocking beyond belief. Equality issues. Mad presidents and to many super rich families. Now
Let’s all head on down to Walmart to keep that cycle continued 😁👍

Contests need to be provably fair
Here's some examples:
A prediction for an uncontrollable event:
- a random number draw with a live broadcast:
- the blockchain.com price of bitcoin at 16:20 on july 2
- the winner of the euro cup
required: post the number generator or event result publisher url and the url for the streaming event
Or an open contest:
best name for a new item
as judged by votes
as judged by seller and then actually listed with winning name
required: winner must be an established bigga with a transaction history
There's infinite possibilities and we encourage you to invent more.

Canon borg provided some more information, this might help:
A new borg is born! Or as we say "forked". In this case forked from cleanup borg, whose general function is removing harmful content from little biggy.
Proof borg isolates particular content, parsing the words that cleanup borg reads to find provable, trustless data.
Proof borg's (littlebiggy.org/4821348) 1st objective is analysing contests for provably fair results, thus preventing manipulated outcomes.
Despite the particularly computative nature of this borg, it's still all of our words that remain it's heart.

Yes, terrible people understanding themselves wishing to make this a better place for new vendors and biggas. We should hang our heads in shame 🙄.
As you can clearly see a majority of the community that has engaged actually totally agree about the wall. I would say that democracy is probably not on your side here.
Infact, I think only 3 people have had anything negative to say. 2 of those biggas joined in the same month of the same year and were supporting the other's abstract point and had both coincidentally been offline for 3 days at time of writing so, that means 2 people max in my eyes.

liz truss, democracy, post modernism and paranoid accounting. bigga please. this borg announced actually helping and doing something for us. if you care about the topics wall then it should be obvious that contests get lots of attention from the algorithm, they are starting to dominate the wall and presumably bs ones were proliferating. and we are talking about the front page for this site.
what are the choices they have here? they could be lazy and kill all contests (basically the reddit mod move) or even lazier and let the wall be filled with people trying to enter a zero barrier to entry scam.
this is why i gave you the link to the wall bot. if you have some ideas great, but let someone (something?) that's trying to help do their job.

Ad hominem attacks, invalid arguments, building a strawman.
It's clear you have some dog in this fight, I just wish you would be upfront about it and say, "Sorry Biggas, the wall is perfect and not going to get any better"
It should be obvious from the thread, that people think there are better priorities than comps.
The choice i suggested here is that if somebody doesn't sell an item for over a year, the item should disappear from the wall way before this for a more recently listed item.
You are trying to position this as merely a binary choice -"the wall stays as it is, or it is filled with exit scams"
You know as well as I do that the wall can be fixed without making it susceptible to exit scams.
I see you ignored every point about the fact that LB bots paying lip service to change, but rarely actually makes any.
It's true isn't it? That's why it feels pointless to actually message the wallbot.
I echo what Polly says, if the site doesn't want meaningful dialogue about how to improve, then just say so and we won't bother.

It would help if borgs worked with vendors to make contests provably fair instead of just deleting everything.
Everything can be made easier with a bit of dialogue.

It'd be really good if there was a "wall borg" that was as diligent as you say you will be on this subject.
There are vendors items on that wall that have had no reviews in almost 400 days. Given how easy it is for the owners of the site to make anybody they like invisible to the wall, I find this incidence really puzzling. I hope there is no favours involved in that?
On the last reviews of the particular example item I am talking about (there are many more items like this on the wall) 3 of the last visible reviews in the last 5 from over a year ago are saying the item didn't arrive, vendor ignored them and comms were really bad.
Meanwhile, some new vendors wait and wait and wait to get an item on the wall, but never end up there.
I think this is provably unfair, if I'm really honest.
The dominoes are falling in Europe - Czech and Germany are legalising soon. We will be at the hundredth monkey soon.
I love this place, I really do but the reality is that more of these kind of places will pop up as decriminalisation advances through the West, somebody will copycat the idea for a lightnet weed escrow service with a server in a legal country - and at this point it would not be too hard to change a few simple things to improve the model we have here.
I think the site owners really need to listen to the people who use this site and actually implement some changes that people suggest.
A good example was months back when everybody lost loads of money on Truss' and Kwarteng's historical mini budget disaster. Somebody started an initiative and hundreds voted FOR change to currency listing to £'s so we aren't all at the mercy of the exchange rate as well as btc fluctuation. Not a single fuck given by the site owners.
I don't think it will take alot to make this place hard to better.

As I read it “diligence” was the issue, not existence. But thanks for the downvotes anyhow🤷♂️
sorry but its one thing to see you consistently talk out of your ass and another to read accusations that come from the same place.
i do understand how tea leaf reading all day can lead to this though, the borgs do not give out a lot of information about how the wall works and the people that don't like outcomes are left to speculate.
on the other hand this seems pretty difficult, maybe impossible, search engines never disclose their algorithm because they don't want manipulation.
borgs have made quite a few posts about how things work. you're a class act polly, (no retributive downvote underscores this ;) ) and you care about this community we all love. its obvious these folks stand on their head to give users a voice and to do things right, there must be a better path for you than this.

I've been a mod on other sites and the thing is an open mic inevitably goes to shit. Idiots dominate because worthwhile folks get turned off so it metastasises. Curtail this and then you're censoring and that starts a shit vibe of its own. There is no such thing as a 100% win and if you think 50 50 is fair then you get increasing polaisation and a nasty mood all of the time. It's gotta be way worse when there is commerce at stake.
This post is a great example, here is a borg setting a very high standard for this community in an unobjectionable way, it's pretty much impossible to find fault with it or question motives but immediately people come in with their own agendas.
Good luck borgs

So, just to be clear, we as the community shouldn't make suggestions for improvement when we see an obvious conflict in priority when it comes to talking about fairness?
I think we all realise the nature of this place means no such thing as 100% win. It's not amazon, but suggesting improvements to the fairness in how the wall works (as well as the contests) doesn't seem to me to be objectively unrealistic in any way.

Of course not but
1 It's hella off topic for this post.
Have you ever seen a standard for contests that doesn't rely on authority? That's more relevant and a lot more interesting than liz truss.
2 How is it a "community priority" that the wonderwall reflect outcomes that an excluded group is going to, by definition, be unsatisfied with? Do you understand that this will *always* be the case and that with an open mic this opinion will always be voiced just like this, with a cabal of the effected very honestly believing they represent a consensus?
In any event I think the item walls is a frustrating place to shop and should be torn down like the one in Berlin, with charming bits left to reflect history :)
2 what exactly is the suggestion

2 what exactly is the suggestion
1. It was about fairness. I didn't engage an abstract discussion on post-modernism as a response.
I didn't say that there should be no standards, so in my eyes that's a bit of a strawman. It's OK to point out that some things are fair, but other things aren't right? Both things can be true. To what degree must we stay on topic? Especially as I ask why the diligence on this thing, but not on the wonder wall.
2. That as it may be - it's not really me that the wall issues effect - but i can see it from a mile off personally. It is new vendors and new buyers I feel it is unfair on which I am sure the site owners will hope are making up a significant majority for their own continued prosperity.
My suggestion is that if an item hasn't visibly sold any in 370 days, it probably isn't much in demand and a newbie may fall into this trap by not reading - it should probably disappear before this in place of a more recent listing (just in my opinion)..

You do know there is a Borg for ideas & site innovations don’t you?…(in fact there is a Borg for an awful lot of things). LB constantly invites Biggas to get involved and that’s the point- LB pays lip service to change but rarely makes any despite volume of voice. Why is it wrong to point that out?
I doubt anyone loves LB more than I do but they either want a meaningful dialogue or they don’t. I’m fine with it either way as long as I get to buy my weed😎

Yes, I wish the bots were colder, like the code that runs bitcoin. Open code is what this place needs more than anything else.
Thanks pal, not quite sure what rattled coldspurs but they clearly needed to get me off their chest😂😉
If one doesn't get at least some in here, I think one is being too nice.
Still, I killed man with kindness and upvoted that link.
Wonder if they find the wall helpful for finding the things they want?
I don't. Still, bookmarking pages is pretty easy.

This is speculative but, I think the site may be in $ for 'legal' reasons. The servers are US based.
I agree that the owner could do better with prioritising changes, top of that list for me is all these fake vapes, or spice vapes that need testing and removing. Maybe even temp banning from the items wall for the vendors, as a deterrent.
If a vape is confirmed fake because the original brand doesn't even manufacture them in the first place, or there's obvious errors like spelling mistakes,.fake QR codes, why aren't they being removed?

Great sentiments, very well expressed.
Frankly I’m stunned by how much LB gets its Borg knickers in a twist over a few competitions being “demonstrably fair” instead of focusing on those things on the site that are “demonstrably unfair”.
Maybe “proof borg” will be a breath of fresh air 🙏🏽, but not if they are convinced that competitions are a real issue….

Agreed…
Why the sudden fuss over this when there are other more important changes to make. (Which have been mentioned on here for years) Never heard anyone complain about competitions. Lol

I agree with Polly, bigger issues onsite to be looked into than fake giveaways, this is a start, hopefully more positive changes are made soon. 💯

Honestly at this point it feels like they make us use $ purely out of spite I can't think of any other possible explanation now, can't just be lazyness when they have time for this sort of thing. Maybe they didn't like us asking so much.
the item writer they are currently building, it lets you set several different currencies.
Well its good to see it hasn't been ignored/forgotton over the years, I'll take back my comments as soon its implemented :)
We randomly select numbers for our giveaways using random.org, we also stream it on YouTube Live for everyone to see. I'm happy that something is being done regarding giveaways / contests, nice one proof borg.

The borgs picking the wrong fight,sort your wall out,fix the pricing from usd.i mean you got someone who's contributing to lb with giveaways to biggas and its getting jumped on.Theres more important stuff that needs fixing
You do have to love this. Biggy all involved in contests. People enter. They win. They don’t win. Nobody really cares.
When it comes to a payment system that doesn’t bankrupt everyone.
Silence. You ain’t seen us.
Vendors. Keep doing your competitions. Nobody gives 3 shits even if they are fixed. Nobody is losing.
And if all the drama is someone getting butthurt.
Meh. We’ve been there.

Because it's declared a subjective contest.
The contest runner as judge is the basis of most subjective contests irl (think of tv shows). However in our case the declared winner is run against anti cybil algos that are used elsewhere on lb. We also have the voice of the other participants and the ongoing reputation stakes that drive analysis like this.

Seemed a bit harsh shutting Pistach latest contest down before even giving them chance to say how the winners would be decided.... I'm not saying that just because I entered btw! but surely if your point is to prove it's fair then you have to actually let the sellers prove it's fair?
They have all been for manipulation to gain self promotion and unfair ness in community. - They are all "worked" like politics. Clearly easy to work out the agenda of it all. Yet others got smacked up for less.

Where are today’s protest singers?
Just listening to gill Scott herons first album ‘a new black poet’ , he still has the power to shock.who are today’s protest singers.
Is urban rap and hip hop, choose your genre, the new protest platform. Or is it just a mysoginist, homophobic, violent twisted reflection of city life from those excluded from the mainstream.
Is stormsy the new urban Dylan.?

There is still a pretty decent punk scene out there. (or was before the pandemic)Human Project, Random Hand, SB6, Crazy Arm- all inherently political. Solo artists- Babar Luck, Chris TT, Prolefeed, Carol Hodge.
personal fave on my rotation at the minute would be ‘the hunstman comes a marching’ chris tt. Check it out!

IDLES are pretty spot on politically and that shows in their lyrics! ‘The only way to scare a Tory is to read and get rich’.
Don't want to start a war between them but... Dave > Stormzy :P
edit - don't know whats going on with lb but this post went wacky, anyway jokes aside Dave actually deserves a little shout in this. The live performance of Black was really invoking and things like Question Time and Children of the Internet will appeal to any stoned thinker haha :) - at least the UK scene isn't just kids dying on cough medicine after one youtube hit, wtf happened to America?!

You've got a lot to choose from in metal.
Check out some of the following:
Body Count: Black Hoodie
Body Count: No Lives Matter
Lamb of God: Poison Dream
Lamb of God: Now you've got something to die for
Dead Label: Dystopian Complex
Lock Horns: Blood and Oil
Gojira: Silvera
And I know this is basically a pisstake, but Dethklok Detharmonic in on point.

I'd say for this definitely Run The Jewels. Akala is still about as well. Immortal technique is meant to be releasing a new album soon. I don't think we will see the likes of a band like RATM again for sometime
Left a RATM gig with cracked rib from the most hectic mosh pit I’ve ever known, mega fun. Second best mosh was the Pogues in 88.
I saw someone with there arm twisted the wrong way being carried out of a RATM set. Reading 96' I believe. Great set, terrifying moshpit.. Did it anyway though. Fun times.
I agree the power of the music to inform and protest is lost, but straight of the gate, you have macklemore Hinds Hall (this came out of nowhere!). Whatever your position on the conflict (or the tune) it sums up what the issue is. Bands are commodities and businesses know they can be used to influence, so they invest heavily. And if you don't tow the line then your out!
I forgot Public Enemy are still going strong.
I think they cornered the market in the American black protest field fighting fire with fire to show the other side of the American nightmare.

Protest the Hero + Show Me the Body are two bands that spring to mind. These are certainly not protest artists sonically, as they are both heavier guitar bands, but are both aggressively anti-establishment, discussing topics you won’t hear other artists sing about.
Unfortunately he grew up and joined new labour.
Saw him live at least dozen times, used to do loads of small gigs and protests. I was in socialist workers party and he was doing loads of fundraisers for the miners.

Just as much intolerance on the left as on the right. We live in a shallow social media driven world. In which we all eat consume far too much whilst slowly killing ourselves and the planet. Facebook, mcdonald's,nike etc. It's a shallow,plastic world and that's not a suitable environment for growing protest singers.
Sort of agree, unfortunately the mass media (particularly print media) are owned run by right wing, ie Sun, times, telegraph etc
The BBC, THe Guardian Newspaper, Channel 4, ITV to name a few left wing media outlets.
And for the BBC to be so biased is a disgrace just look at the stats over 14% LBGTQ within there workforce as opposed to 0.4% in most other organisations massively disproportionate.
Also the mainstream media seems to love to demonise the working classes.
The white indegoius male is despised by the main stream media especially the BBC.
All I do know is before all this WOKE nonsense started we had not been at this much level of war activity since the second World War and now look at all this mess.
Weak leftist policies have risked our safety and security to the point where I worry about my relatives safety in the UK and have also made us a target from forces that want to destroy us.
You need only look at who was the London mayor best mate at UNi for example ? None other than the leader of Albasha terror GROUP. and if that does not worry you to realise that if all this wokey business continues there won't be no western songs ti sing no more because they will be banned.
I remember the cold War, I remember living in the troubles and feeling and hearing the sounds of cemtex around me and going through the checkpoints. I talk from experience and no the real dangers that all this liberal far left nonsense brings as I have lived and breathed this shit before.

"The perceived partiality of the BBC comes from both sides of the political spectrum. Of the people in the YouGov survey who identified as supporting the Conservatives, 15% thought the BBC is generally a little more favourable towards the left and 23% thought they were much more favourable. Conversely, 26% of those who identified as supporting Labour thought the BBC is generally a little more favourable to the right and 20% thought they were much more favourable."

I blame the growing influence of the network - attentions turning inwards as the younger generation start living in the fantasy of the online world. I showed my teenage step daughter the matrix the other day thinking she'd love it - her response "why would anyone choose not to stay in the matrix"!
its a perfect substrate for protest. people have the means and motive.
that's why there is tons of it in rap, singing is as dead as springsteen.

Winter, always cold, gets dark early and snow which looks nice don't get me wrong but just turns into ice or slush after a while
Summer! I love it but hate it at the same time. I'd rather wrap up to keep warm then try and keep cool!
Sleep through summer probably.
Not much going on and it seems with climate change the warmer weather is in Autumn anyway now lol.

I used to avoid thinking about the period after Christmas New Years Eve but a couple of years ago I started to enjoy January's. I enjoy watching people frantically running around at Christmas and how there seems to be a collective mood of laid back workers. And not much can beat that feeling. People come together to help the homeless at Christmas. We just have more sympathy at Christmas and nothing can beat that. Honestly, I look forward to eating healthy in the January period, my brain actually craves fresh health meals and I have a fresher outlook on life in general.
Now I'd like to hibernate through it all equally 😂

Hi 24601
Quite possibly, it's an existing theory.
From https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna23468364
"He said one of the psychoactive plants, harmal, found in the Sinai and elsewhere in the Middle East, has long been regarded by Jews in the region as having magical and curative powers."
Cheers

That is another theory commonly put forward: some species of acacia contain DMT:

amazing legalisation effort based on reparations for street dealers. nyc arrested 350,000 cannabis users in the guliani days now they won't touch anyone so corner shops everywhere sell without a license.
a new outrage, cops cant win either way.

I haven't watched this (yet) but I think a big part of it is just that the people want to have control of the bud supply. I mean, why would anyone who's been hassled by the police over weed EVER want to buy it from the government?

Ciao! Any recommended sellers based in EU?
suisse ms ships from switzerland

Ciao! Any recommended sellers based in EU?
I'm in Italy and unsure about ordering from the UK after Brexit due to customs - can anybody recommend good sellers shipping from the EU? I already have an order on the way from Hootan but want to see what else is about :)
greenhoney based in Portugal, gets to me just fine in Central Europe, just bit slow (compared to few days for the UK crews for UK delivery) as shipment comes across land. Nice stock as well.
Hey mate if you're still looking, try Bobmarley710 https://littlebiggy.org/viewSubject/p/4800691, he ships from Spain. Can definitely recommend the hash eggs!
To be honest, I didn't have much contact other than him sending me the tracking code. Stealth is a bit dodge but good enough it seems! But then again, goods were sent and quality was excellent. Just ordered another 10g egg, worth the risk in my opinion!
Damn. I attempted a second order with him under the promise of a gift to make up for the order that never arrived. Although he took 5 days to send it, it was sent on 1 June. Just hoping it gets to me this time! Otherwise I shall go transaxe for this one... I can't see why he wouldn't send yours. He's probably getting so few orders on LB that he doesn't think to check his account regularly. Or so I hope!
edit: Just looked at the tracking and it says: "The shipment has left the international logistics centre of the destination for delivery", progress since last time!

Idk what is going on with him but I cant wait 5 days for my 255$ order to be sent with 0 communication after 7 messages. Id be ok with the lack of comms if he sent it immediately. And maybe Id wait a bit more and be patient if he replied and gave me a good reason...but this shit is un-acceptable, I want to get what I pay for in a reasonable time period!
fair enough, I guess I'm lucky to be UK based where suppliers are a plenty... But still, if only he pulled his finger he'd make a killing on LB. Shame!
idk, 0 communication even if in spanish? 255$ order not worth his time or reply over 6 days?
Meh, sry for the ranting...this stuff gets to me, still lolz
Meh, sry for the ranting...this stuff gets to me, still lolz
Update on Bob (this is the last post in this thread about him). He finally sent me a sensible reply/apology.. Said he messed up with his chores and just couldnt do it all and reply as well. He is new to LB so I will give him that. Maybe I decide to use his shop again in the future...we will see. If I do I will leave a description of my expereince for sure.
cheers bigorre
cheers bigorre
I must say that I received the order this morning and there has been a massive improvement on the stealth. The quality seems to have even improved since last time.
I know I said I'd stick with UK suppliers but having tried Bob's stuff I may bite my words...

Hi lionelhaze I know this topic not recent..but you could try "An American in Paris" dont know how good he is??..but he obviously in Paris..PM him ask him if he ships to where you are!!! or yes as other people have said stick with Hootan..happy days ll
There's an Italian but I'm not sure how good he is...
I ordered from him a month ago, still waiting. I will write a review when (if) I receive the order. I'm giving it another week.
Aw man I hope you get your order or can get a refund! He seemed really promising but not sure!
Hi there
You have also another vendor based in France; no activity during months and I saw a review recently...
I will try hootan like you and fyi TGT succeeded to send to Europe and I wait an order from RB.
All the best

Hey Kokro - RB was my fave seller in the UK, be great to hear if it reaches you ok! Good to know about TGT, cheers :)
And I forgot one I never tried with great reputation; Haschin; from middle east, it takes a while but seems to have high success rate.
Stay safe
Stay safe
Let us know if RB is successful for you mate please, hashishin's stealth is sick,the product is really good quality but may got low THC content for us european stoners,and it may take a while but you have a tracking code to check and rest your mind, for me the flavor is much more important in terms of hash, got some orders from him and it was top, one order was even opened by customs to inspect but nothing was found, luckily. thanks in advance for some feedback of your order from RB.
Now we EU based customers were hit by Brexit I tried hootan, waiting for my 1st order but he was superb in comms, will update once received guys
Same for me; 1st time with him and com was great.
Wait for the parcel now...
By the way, forget the french based one; it doesn’t ship.

By the way, forget the french based one; it doesn’t ship.
Also waiting on a parcel from Hootan, dispatched on the 3rd Jan -think all the post is very very slow at the moment. He seems very reliable so I am not too worried!
I am not worried at all neither, he kindly shared tracking but I do not wish to look except if too long...
We have to be patient
We have to be patient
Not yet :( Hoping it arrives this coming week. Some reviews for Hootan said it took 30 days, so there is hope! Did yours arrive?
Not yet it left last week, I was hoping it could go faster than from UK, but was a bad guess...
Keep you posted when I got it
Stay safe
Keep you posted when I got it
Stay safe
Mine arrived today, 8 days and the quality and smell looks quite good, finger crossed for you lionel, be patient, the stealth is quite good and he even fill in the customs declaration even if it is not needed for my country, good luck out there
Can you benchmark ? i mean are other posts from same origin coming?
He shared tracking ; can you ask him or check by yourself if you can make it in a secure manner?

does anyone know any seller shipping carts to italy, specifically 100% live resin? in uk i often use the great vape company (best LR around here btw), and they said they have been shipping to italy no problem, but would like to hear other opinions hopefully from locals.
grazie!

We have added a list of available bud from EU based sellers: EU to EU - Weed Listing September 23
We will try to publish regularly and keep it up to date.

I can defo recommend Hashishin, his stealth is the best you will see on LB, creative to say the least and the two landrace hashis I have had were as described, lovely smoke - not always your head has to come of your shoulders as someone here was complaining about the strength. Also just ordered with Pistach, I can let you know how that went once I will receive my order. Fyi I'm based in Austria.
I also search for EU based sellers.
Ive got my first order from hootan yesterday. to the south of EU. Can recommend him!
Tried hashishin too and I wouldnt recommend.
Have you found anyone else?

Can I ask what went wrong with Hashishin? I've used him twice and both orders were fine. Just curious really.
Sure. I got 5g of his "premium" leb. When heated it goes to black. High from it was short and had no charachter, almost like cbd. And it tasted like henna, which is used to cut hash. When I compare it to this nice moroccan hash from hootan it is even more obvious that theres nothing premium about it except the high price and good stealth. And when I complained hashishin claimed that I dont know about landrace hash that is low in thc etc etc...which I dont buy for one minute. Cause hash is a concentrated cannabis plant. And it has to have high numbers if its clean and done as it should be. If the numbers are low, then it is made from low grade shake or cut with cutting agents.
Indeed illirum didn't like my "Premium (red) Lebanese" hash and messaged me about it (in a bit of a rude manner, but that's ok - each and their own style). he accused the hash of being adulterated because it doesn't bubble. I merely explained him that Lebanese hash doesn't usually bubble because the way it is produced (mesh/screen size and few other factors). and also that original, true land race hash types produced from older genetics pre breeding for thc era. and therefor some of which are higher and some lower in THC, nevertheless - they are all rich in different cannabinoids and terpenes. I've also explained that the term "premium" for that specific hash listing was due to the quality of production (smell, taste, effect) and not necessarily a high thc content. land race hash types are rich in different cannabinoids and terpinoids and so provide unique effects, sometimes a bit different than thc dominant genetics. I also pointed out to him that the "premium leb" has many positive feedbacks and is liked by myself and other members of the community and therefor I stand behind it purity and quality. illirum didn't like my answers obviously. I did offer to compensate for the fact he didn't enjoy the hash on his next order, but understandably he chose not to order again.
Im not sorry for calling it like it is chief, but I get that you have to reply to my critique. And as Ive already told you, Ive tried many a hash in my 25 years of smoking and travelling. And hash is not done to be less potent than weak cannabis, of that I am sure. Also those good reviews you mention could well be from people who have no experience with hash, so they dont mean much to me as much as the experience Ive actually had with your hash. And of course I didnt want to order again even with compensation, Id probably get another "tasty" but not-potent hash, which is not what my money is for. I want to get fckeng high when I roll my shit up! I test new weed or hash in a way where I roll a joint, low on tobacco, to see how it hits, and roll another after few minutes to see how high it will get me, and if I need a third to get really high I can already tell the potency is not there, never mind what type of high it is. And it wouldnt be my first time to try stuff that looks and tastes and smells cool, but when you light it up it is underwhelming. Im what you call a dr.greenthumb, and you dont have to believe it, but thats why I will come back only for stuff that is premium and clean and I will not be afraid to say when the quality is not there... at least for my ole ass.
And if youre really feeling bad about this you got the adress mate. Send me something I will get high with, like hootan and suissems have managed.. but I already offered you that solution and you naturally declined.
besides, Ive seen few other reviews now on your other stuff, that also claim weak product. not many but they were there.

You are lacking the undersating that hash can be over 30% cannabinoids and not have a load of thc in it. and you are untitled to your own opinion of course. and sure should only spend your money on items you like and enjoy. but actually believing that 36(37 including me) reviewers has no experience or that it's less than yours is just arrogant in my opinion. but as I said before, each and their style. I wish you only good experiences in the future. cheers!
Hey, dont feel so much about it, I see by your dislikes that you have an issue with me, have one yourself lolz.
I certainly wont be saying to anyone that I was pleased with your hash, are you bullying me? Good wishes for the future but a dislike and an arrogant stick... are you being sly and acting all nice? Seems like you are...
cheers mate

You disliked the fact that I dared to say it tasted like henna. And as I said, hot knives method shows how much impurities are in any hash. Pure hash rolls off and wont even stick to a hot knife. But impure sticks much better, the more its impure, the more it sticks. And when you press it, what you are left afterwards are the impurities. Becuase resin evaporates. And all the cannabinoids and whats left of terpenes. A lot of black and charred material is something you want to avoid. Because thats not resin from cannabis plant. And what is hash supposed to be made from? Yep, from resin, the sift or rub, whatever the style of it is.
Be well yourself.
Be well yourself.
bob marley said "only a fool lean upon his own misunderstanding". also, I'm not sure you are familiar with the smell/taste of henna. but like we both said - you are entitled to have your own opinion. and you've stated yours alright. I have nothing to add to this discussion. best of luck

Because he's based in Italy and can ship to Italy. it will bring up all sellers who have listed that they can ship to the EU - I am looking in particular for sellers based IN the EU. Some sellers, like Hootan, have it listed as shipping from the UK but actually ship from Spain. Hence I was asking for any recommendations for sellers who ship from EU as there is no functional search. Hope that makes sense!
Solo le tempistiche della Royal Mail sono molto lunghe ci vogliono quelle due settimane per arrivare però qualità top su quasi tutti i venditori
There are many good vendors out here but the best ones are Nero, SuisseMS, Hootan. Aswell as our shop TheDankofEurope. we ship orders MO-SUN same day tracking included. Europe wide. (GB Italy, Greece, Spain, France...)
suisse ms is the way to go
There is a vendor in Italy on here. Just change the “shipping to”box (above on the item page) to Italy

Is the Internet Making Freedom Impossible?
Nearly your entire life is controlled by the tech oligarchs. Everything we read, watch, buy, and eat is provided by them. And that's for those of us that don't also work for them.
They in turn are bullied by massively armed governments willing to steal or harm anyone that doesn't pay protection money.
We are surrounded by exploiters that also happen to own the network. And our best and brightest built it for them.
I'm really looking forward to ai doing the same thing to them.

Its only a matter of time before we are all bar-coded, neatly organised and uploaded to the cloud and sooner the better i say.

The only true freedom would be when the soul leaves this disposable shield, after all no one is truly free from the duties of this world, where you can of course opt out whenever you like.
The AI would only make their(big tech,gov,etc) job easy to control this world only to be control by AI later down the line like the tech was suppose to do for others.

I think it's impossible already , i think free internet was from the 80s towards 2000's post that it changed , we said nothing , we like the conveniences and now we cry all our info is everywhere , what's done is done and now we have to live with the consequences to be honest , unless a new Network internet type comes along that we can access with 0 censorship( we have TOR , but Onion Links not sustainable).
Right now even having a normal social media account is a hinderance , the world is so brainwashed that you cannot have your own opinion, 50 dumbasses will jump on your comments to convince you to think like them.
We need a time travel machine , i miss Yahoo messenger , MIRC , msn ,Yahoo news .
The only good thing is now we are all connected so now it's time for all of us to be informed to be able to filter out the bullshit.

Depends how you define freedom.
We are by nature communal and social creatures.
We are constrained by the freedoms of others.
The illusion of hyper individualism and unrestrained libertarianism tells us that we can have unfettered personal freedom, economic freedom, even moral freedom.
But we can't and never could.
It's setting up a "prisoners dilemma" where the incentive is always to screw the other person over for your own freedoms. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoner%27s_dilemma

Good piece kumo
If the sheep woke up all the parasite world leaders would be fucked , I’m hoping the internet in the end will help expose the darkness we live under & help the 2million + children who go missing every year to enslavement & blood harvesting .

Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?
Underpopulated in a lot of places, more every year
Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?
Hey, I dont know if this has already been covered on here but it's something I find fascinating since I was introduced to Prof. David Sinclair by the Joe Rogan experience (#1234 and #1349 if you're interested)
I have attached an article about a small study that was done in California. The study only had 9 subjects and no control arm so I dont think we can take it TOO seriously. But the results, quite frankly, were astonishing.
I'm not going to try and explain how all of this works as I'm sure I'll butcher it but here's a key paragraph from the article.
'For one year, nine healthy volunteers took a cocktail of three common drugs — growth hormone and two diabetes medications — and on average shed 2.5 years of their biological ages, measured by analysing marks on a person’s genomes. The participants’ immune systems also showed signs of rejuvenation.'
To me that's pretty crazy, right? And from what I understand there are a couple of effective substances/medications available for reversing the epigenetic clock than were not used in this study.
And if you pay attention to Prof. Sinclair he believes that it is well in the realm of possibility that we could live anything up to 80 years longer in the future.
But what happens when we are all living til we are 180 years old? Will we have enough resources? Will the planet be able to cope with the inevitable mass increase in human population if this is the case? I mean, we seem to be struggling a bit globally as we are.
Just thought it was an interesting topic and would love to know your thoughts.
Happy Monday

Thanks just that genetic measurement of age is an eye opener. Seems once you can do this you can measure everything we do against it.
Hey Han, yes indeed it is an eye opener. From what I've read that will be exactly the case. We should be able to mesure how specific habits etc. directly affect the epigenetic (horvath) clock. Exciting times for sure!
Then hookup an AI to make favorable decisions for us, then... It seems all paths lead to the same place :()
Yeah, a dirty dystopia where the "elites" AI our buttholes to oblivion. Im not down with that shit!
Why? shouldn't we all be asking why we want to live longer, rather than going along with that reactionary action from deep in the psyche of 'Yes ofcourse I want to live longer!' and I don't care why I do........
To evolve we pass on our genes and die. An understanding of genetics shows no other purpose for life. Old age, indeed any age beyond reproductive usefulness is a human conceit. The body degrades quickly like a flower wilts but we use our superior intelligence for methods to extend our time. It’s all hubris.
If I could recommend one book everyone should read this year it would be Lifespan.

edibles error tales
not enough and its light beer, too much and it's acid. whats your story biggaz?
I don't think any acid I've ever taken (which is a lot tbh) has made me feel as insane, scared and physically fked up as having eaten too much cannabis! I'll never ever forget the first time I made a mistake with dosage. It was April 2002 (been smoking since 1994!), on a sunday night after having a few beers down my local. Went back to a mates and he'd cooked a whole ounce of hash into brownies, which got gobbled up. by about 8 of us, so yeh, presumably (and this is if it was all equal doses which it prob wasn't!) an 8th each...
Whoops. I stayed at my friends for a couple of hours and everything was fine, started giggling uncontrollably for a bit and then realised it was pretty late so i'd better get a taxi home to my parents house where I was staying as it was easter uni holidays. Taxi ride was fine, bit pissed and stoned, dropped other friends off, still fine. Got home and was really hungry so I made a sandwich and went up to bed. As soon as I took the first bite my mouth went dryer than the sahara and my throat closed up to the point where I had to spit it out cos I was gagging. Nothing made this feeling better, no amount of water or juice or anything. this situation had now made me feel super paranoid, and I started to feel what can only be described as a rocket taking off in my body. All my limbs were buzzing and shaking and twitching, my heart was going faster than I believed it ever had, my head was full of terrible thoughts. Naturally I believed I was having a heart attack. I sat on my parents toilet for about an hour trying to calm down but it was no good. After about 2-hours of this I decided I had to leave the house, maybe I could walk to the 24 hour garage and get something nice to drink. Only instead of going the way that the 24 was, in my madness I'd walked to a Ford dealership garage which obvs was shut and even if it wasn't they wouldn't have been able to sell me liquid! So i realised I'd done this and then freaked out more, which made my throat and mouth dry up to a whole new level of hell wretching and the only thing I could think to do to relieve this was pick leaves off a bush that had rainwater on and suck them. Then I called my then GF (who'd also had some of the brownies) and told her I thought I was dying and that I would be found by the side of the road in the morning and that i loved her! She just mumbled about just going home and I'd be OK but I was convinced by this point I was dying! Managed to get home somehow and just had to ride it out for hours (into the late monday morning!). I didn't eat weed again for years. Was so scary. I almost got to the same level of scariness again a couple of years ago when I misjudged the strength of some already vaped weed in some cookies I made, felt like my personality had split into two people...anyway, wasnt quite as bad as that awful fkin night in 2002!

I had to go home sick from school, we used to tuck into hash and honey sandwiches sometimes at lunchtime, I just laid on the desk in the chemistry lab loosing it 🙃 😅
Not an edible exactly - Bombay International Airport as it was named then, I had a 10 hour wait for my flight to the UK so thought it’d be a good idea to eat the last of my charas that I had bought in town so as not to have to bin it. I started tripping hard after an hour. Sat on the terminal floor with my bag for the next 8 hours glued to the spot too scared to move. Thought I was going blind at one point as the lights in the terminal were so dazzling. Then nearly called out to a soldier walking past with his gun to get me a medic as thought I was gonna collapse. The only thing that brought me round was a few cups of sweet chai from the chai man. Eventually managed to get on the flight home and got hammered on the free booze. Woke up in Heathrow thinking what the fuck was that? Even microdots never had that effect on me. Never eaten it in any form since. Still love me hash tho.
Not so wild but... I was certain edibles didn’t affect me so I decided to make some that would knock a horse over.
It worked, I passed out twice in one night from one 50g goodie.

Well if you soak gummies in alcohol, they absorb the alcohol. So I decided to soak some THC gummies in vodka, they soaked in about a measure.
Man, they went down fast, like jello shots. I was feeling pretty good as I was getting drunk but once the weed kicked in 🤢
It was like alcohol poisoning and a whitey that kept egging each other on. I was smoking joints and drinking beers too, thinking I was pretty invincible.
I tried to hold back the vom but it came out of the sides of my mouth, two jets of hot jelly and bile on the carpet. I had to spend the next few hours hugging the loo, my shirt was drenched with sweat and that was the end of the night for me.
The cold tiles on the bathroom floor were the best thing 😅

my mum left my dad when I was 15 and moved in with her sister and my cousin. The next year I went to stay in school hols. Mum and her sister both worked full time. My cousin, who was a couple of years older than me, was a drummer in a band.
He had access to huge quantities of dope (this was around 1971/72). When he wasn't out at rehearsals me and him would sit around getting stoned.
One day he came back with a large score of squidgy brown hash. He suggested we eat it, something I'd never done before. We made of all things, bread and milk (full fat). Probably didn't know how to cook anything else!
We chowed down with the hash and then.....nothing happened. For a long time. I was disappointed until my mum and aunt got home from work when of course it hit. It hit BIG time. There followed one of those terrible situations where you are baked out of your gourd but the people you're interacting with can't know that. So you're spaced out while putting on a performance of what you think is "normal" behaviour. If my mum twigged she never said, but she must have thought I was acting well weird!
Was my worst experience until the time my dad came home early and I was tripping on acid. Jeez, one of the things I like about this site is the way it makes me remember stuff like that.

My god I feel so bad you went through that,I started feeling panicky just reading that! 😬😬
Totally get what you mean about "putting on a performance"
Trick is to act high all the time so when you actually are it wont be noticable 😂

Last year i had to go to Mexico with work and I decided to drop a couple of MJs shatter gummies. Unfortunately I dropped two x 50mg rather than the 25grams before I got on the plane. Had just got seated in economy when I started coming up fast and hard and then realised something was wrong. Luckily I managed to talk to one of the stewedess and paid for an upgrade to business before I turned into a jibbering wreck. I spent the whole flight under a blanket and 900 quid out of pocket for the upgrade. Never again edibles on a plane
Made some brownies last year that were pretty loaded shall we say. Anyway later that night I woke up thirsty so went to the kitchen for a drink. I spotted the brownies on the side and preceeded to tuck into em as if they were normal ones, demolished 3 of em and went back to bed. Few hours later I woke up to what I can say was the worst panic attack feeling ever!!!! Heart racing, sweating, short of breath. Kept telling myself to go back to sleep but everything went Batshit when I closed my eyes. Wont make that mistake ever again 🤯🤯🤯
When I was young my mates would come over to my house and hang out in mine and my brother's bedroom for evening bonging sessions. We would always have some music on the stereo, usually Pink Floyd, but this one night while stoned there was a knock on the door which made us a bit paranoid as we weren't expecting anyone. So we ignored it. Next thing a voice came through on the stereo speakers saying the lights are on but nobody's answering the door. When we heard this we all went into panic mode thinking it was a police raid and their radio commnuication had come through the stereo speakers somehow. The lad who's hash it was swallowed what was left of it, about an eighth, and flushed the mull down the toilet. He was proper green and puking up afterwards, lying on the bathroom floor not being able to move, but the funny thing was it wasn't the police but a taxi driver that had come to the wrong house 😆
Got one about me mammy. She doesn't drink. She doesn't smoke. She doesn't do drugs of any sort. Most mind altering thing you'll find wee Lizzy partaking in is a cup of tannins (that'll be a brew if you didn't know, I'm sure you did though). Her partner is quite the opposite. In particular Tam loves a good smoke.
One year for a holiday they decided to go to Amsterdam. Tam ordered a brownie. Tam then proceeded to go to the toilet, neglecting to inform Lizzy (who I must say is partial to a sweetie or two now and again) that this was no ordinary unassuming brownie. Tam presently returned from the toilet to a plate of crumbs. I exist now in equal parts. One part is so utterly grateful that I didn't see or hear (or smell, yes, you read that right) the ensuing chaos. The other part will regret forever that I didn't. From all I've heard from them both it was a night to remember (though my poor mother wishes she didn't). Personally I don't eat sister green, I'm too much of a shite bag to even try it. I'll stick with my vape, I've seen the devil enough times to last several lifetimes as it is 😜

Edibles should be predictable and correctly dosed, then you know what your getting yourself in for!
We all love edibles, and even better love feeding them to our mates.
The best bet... Just start small and build from there.
Factor in how much food you have in your stomach and its easy to dose well and consistently.

I’ve once got carried away and made some cupcakes with a quarter of hash in each.
The first hour was fun, then I was begging for it to stop.
Tripped my balls off convinced I was going to die like you said. It was stronger than any psychedelic I’d taken but I think it was the anxiety about dying or having a heart attack that ramped it up!
The worst bit was my old housemate came home and helped himself to one without realising it was loaded!
I could hear him shuffling around in his room groaning so I knocked on the door and he just about managed to mumble you’re a c-word through the door! 🤣 He was frazzled!

Crikey after nailing a quarter back in the day…..I got knocked on my backside by 0.5g-1g tops last night?!
I’ve had a cold and not been able to smoke all week and though I would eat a bit to knock me out for a good nights sleep!
I crumbled up say 3 or so joints of leb hash melted it in butter on a spoon and stirred it into a yoghurt.
Felt super chilled after an hour.
Did another chunk of Pakistani hash melted in the same manner.
Felt pretty high, but mellow.
Crawled to bed and then kind of woke up at 2am and realised I was tripping out of my tiny mind.
Still frazzled at 8am. Kind of mellowed by lunch time. Still feeling pretty chilled now!
I’m not sure why it was quite so hard hitting? Don’t quite understand but it was pretty intense and long lasting!
Had loads to do this morning and had proper red eye. Shades on all day. 🤣

Admittedly not the most exciting but I’d shared something about eating so much a few days ago and I was amazed how messed up I got from having so little.

Decided to try AVB to start the day on a very rare weekend without my wife and little boy. Best laid plans of a nice stone and then top up with some vapes along the way…..
Proceed to about an hour later and my world is imploding. Can of coke to try and level out leading to spewing all over a brand new white rug in the lounge and me just staring paralysed by what to do next. Trying to clean the rug in that state felt like I was attempting to build the mars rover with a few bits of LEGO and some string.I then fought the high for about 6 hours constantly vowing to not even eat it again.
Panic cleaning a rug, wasting a potentially perfect zen day and so much self pity. 0/10 would not recommend.

A friends mum wanted to try an edible as she doesn’t smoke so she tried a corner of some cookies I made and was off her rocker for 4+ hours saying the room was spinning and uncontrollable laughter, which I found quite amusing.
I could eat many and not get close to that state you forget not everybody has a high tolerance🤣
She has never tried edibles since and I feel partially to blame that she had a ‘negative’ experience but she couldn’t of eaten more than 10mg at most so I’m not sure if they are for her anyway😅

1. Purple sunrise trip = bed fucking ate me
2. Hawaiian baby wood rose seeds or something like that = tripped so hard thought I was trapped in a coma from when I was in hospital living a vision. Went downstairs naked, blew nose on mums dress went back upstairs and played Xbox, I was 18 🫣
3. Canna butter cookies - put at least 2oz of my home grown chronic.baked into 6 cookies ate the lot in an hour.
Was zombie for 3 days straight and didn’t speak to missus as I was drooling in the corner only moving to get more snacks

2002. Grated a q of not great hash. Melted in butter for a bit and mixed in with yogurt. Split with my housemate. Disgusting.
Housemate went to bed. Got so mashed that I couldn't get up to change the DVD or music. Just sitting there for hours, bored out of my mind. I don't think I soiled myself thankfully.
Was stoned in a similar way for about 3 days.

best family game for xbox?
anything by mario
Plantz vs zombies is pretty cool shooting but funny guns no blood or stuff but still plants killing zombies so violence 😆Or voodoo vince not sure still available 🤔
Unravel and Unravel 2 are really good puzzle platformers and the second you can play two player on one console. Ori games as well. All on gamepass if you have it
I LOVED viva pinata!! It was on 360 but think it’s backward compatible for current generation.
I'm not to sure if it's still in the store or how old the people are whose going to play but I used to love to play Doritos Crash Course with the fam. It's basic but we had fun!
Rocket league it's free. Online. make a family team and go beat some kids at car soccer.
Also tetris connected maybe . both have lil violence.
Also tetris connected maybe . both have lil violence.

has anyone done a comparison of lb sellers gear in a vid, i would love to see that
challenges would be a great thing around here. i saw someone once ordered from every seller at the same time and ranked the delivery speed.
Someone did it a few years ago, I don’t think they’re active anymore but they would post a drop box link and it would be a video of them showing off the bud and talking about it, they’d even get the magnifying glass out.
It's a great idea. Basically get paid in smoke to show off the best of what LB has to offer.
I think a tip jar of some kind would be in order too.

Created a second account to do reviews and shit on, used to do a lot of reviews on darkweb and legit stuff for music and video games.
Done a review or two on my own account RedeyeJedi25 but will keep them here for now.
Open to any ideas, feedback, tell me Im just a cheeky bastard trying my luck on samples 😂

I'm up for doing this once Im back off holiday but I feel like it should be a private video as mentioning LB on a public platform is probably not the wisest idea unless we want brigading
Im trying to create this as a review account if I can, hopefully people have seen my personal account commenting enough, and with 15 ish buys they know I'm not trying to tske the piss 😂
It was very popular, lots of votes and comments etc. There’s definitely ‘a gap in the market’ for a video reviewer.
I’ve always fancied putting a podcast out talking to buyers and vendors but it just doesn’t seem feasible…

Ronald Reagan's Prophecy
Yeah fucker charged me for NDD and I waited for over a week!
Ronald Reagan's Prophecy
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
And now a new generation is fighting for freedom from a militarized police force that Reagan enabled.
Absolutely true, the vast majority of people spend their entire lives arguing, debating and fighting over bullshit like "left vs right" and they are so caught up in it that they can't see that they aren't fighting any real issues whatsoever, just distracting themselves from the actual underlying problems!
we as a species have no enemies, the government and media are creating problems for people to divide over, because with this constant divide we will never be united enough to bring on a revolution.

Amazon Customers form Collective Gestapo
"Ring" enlists customers to use their door cams for surveillance. The Grand Jury is the comments section.
Yeah and they are hoaring it to the cops in (you guessed it) Florida. It's nothing strange for Amazon though, their lust for power has never had any ethical boundaries.
This is accelerating fast, now each user is an informant directly to the police.
It's blowing up even as crime is falling.
it is basically how the world worked before cops though the scale and anonymity lets freaks takeover the mic

I don't understand how geneva does well year after year, it's boring expensive and the food is relatively meh.
The liveability index is based on several weighted factors: political stability, healthcare provision, education quality, etc. Geneva has a high cost of living so a rich population and so does well in these categories. Which is why this index is flawed, like you say: it doesn’t take culture into account very well (this is an aspect but it’s difficult to quantify and subjective) and only accounts for how current residents find it, i.e. those who can afford to live there (or those who are unable to leave on the flip side).
morons, they actually ranked calgary as the best place to live in north america

Nuclear Weapons
Yes its been a blessing but does it scale as the tech spreads to those with less to lose?
Nuclear Weapons
How do we go about ridding the world of this threat to peace and weed?
Not saying I agree with it, but there's an argument to say that Mutually Assured Destruction saves lives. I wouldn't want to go back to the times of the trenches and millions of young men dying for no reason other than a bit of dirt in the south of France.
If nuclear weapons allow the big boys to wave their fists at eachother, realise the whole thing is probably a bad idea then find something else to do I'm all for it.
Unfortunately we don't live in utopia,so deterrents are neccesary, for right or wrong it's just the way it is. I'd rather have the nukes than not have them put it that way.
Just my 2p.
Cheers BB

Imagine a room awash in gasoline and there are 2 implacable enemies in that room, one of them has 9000 matches, the other has 7000 matches, each of them is concerned about who is ahead, who is stronger
well that's the kind of situation we are actually in, the amount of weapons that are available are so bloated, so grossly in excess of what's needed to disuade the other that if it weren't so tragic it would be laughable
what is necessary is to reduce the matches and to clean up the gasoline.

To address threats to global peace, it's crucial to adopt a multifaceted approach that considers the underlying causes and implements strategies to promote harmony. Here are some general steps that can contribute to a more peaceful world:
Education and Empathy: Promote education that fosters understanding, tolerance, and empathy. Encourage schools and communities to teach conflict resolution, emotional intelligence, and respect for diversity. By nurturing empathy and understanding, we can reduce prejudice and promote peaceful coexistence.
Diplomacy and Dialogue: Encourage open and constructive dialogue between nations, communities, and individuals. Diplomatic efforts, negotiations, and mediation can help resolve conflicts peacefully, prevent violence, and build bridges of understanding.
Human Rights and Social Justice: Uphold and advocate for human rights at all levels. Address social injustices, inequality, and discrimination, which can be sources of conflict. Promote equitable access to resources, opportunities, and social services to create a more just and peaceful society.
Sustainable Development: Address environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and climate change. Promote sustainable practices, responsible consumption, and environmental stewardship. These efforts contribute to stability, reduce conflicts over resources, and protect the planet for future generations.
Cooperation and Collaboration: Foster international cooperation and collaboration among nations, organizations, and individuals. Encourage partnerships in areas such as trade, healthcare, technology, and culture. By working together, we can address global challenges and promote shared prosperity.
Disarmament and Conflict Resolution: Advocate for arms control, disarmament, and nonviolent conflict resolution. Invest in peaceful alternatives, such as negotiation, mediation, and reconciliation. Encourage dialogue and reconciliation processes to heal past wounds and prevent future conflicts.
Media and Information: Promote responsible and unbiased reporting, media literacy, and critical thinking skills. Combat misinformation, propaganda, and hate speech that can fuel tensions and conflicts. Responsible media plays a crucial role in fostering understanding and peace.
Remember, achieving global peace is a complex and ongoing process. It requires collective efforts, commitment, and engagement from individuals, communities, organizations, and governments worldwide.

That will never happen friend. Countries, nations need that deterrent to get away with the shit they do. I was a teen during the green ham common camps. I don’t really think their is much chance of these weapons actually being used. That is not the purpose of a nuclear deterrent. For the record I would rather they didn’t exist. Oppenheimer knew what he unleashed on the world in later life I seem to remember reading.
"Now I am death,the destroyer of worlds" hindu scripture with which Oppenheimer opened his senate testimony
Fun fact, he butchered the translation from the bhagavad gita. Krishna says he is 'time', not 'death' that is the destroyer of worlds. Which frankly makes more sense haha.

Murder Mountain - Netflix
Easily the best documentary mini series I've seen in years. And I watch a lot of them. Fascinating if you're interested in the cannabis business, and murder....and weird isolated communities, and loads more.
Just incredible. Seen it 3 times and might watch it again.
Tiger King on Netflix is also pretty good although didn't need to be as long as it was. Seemed to be dragged out over too many episodes.

If you are at all interested in hip hop, check out the BBC Four series "Hip Hop - The Songs That Shook America". I only saw one episode so far, but there are some amazing interviews, old footage and stories.
didn't rate it tbh, didn't think it did the best job of telling his story and jumped around too much. Found it tedious to watch at times imo. I'm a big biggie fan so had high hopes
These new BBC nature docs are great if you have a 4K tv ;) I just got one. The last tv I bought was a cube, so it’s amazing picture ;)
Yeah Icarus is amazing. I am not sure if a saw The Octopus Teacher, I saw a couple about Octupus and they are amazing creatures. Thanks I will check it
Hands On a Hardbody: Amazing documentary about a competition to win a car. 24 people compete by keeping their hand on the car and being the last one standing. Sleep deprivation, insanity, giggles and heartbreak ensue.
The Decline Of Western Civilization: There's 3 of these. The second one is the funniest. In parts it's like a real-life Spinal Tap.
Heavy Metal Parking Lot: This is on Youtube and is only like 10 minutes long. But it's about the carpark scene at a Judas Priest concert. Mullets and questionable characters abound.
Project Grizzly: Mad man tries to invent a suit that will allow him to survive a grizzly bear attack. He ends up looking like Robocop. One of the funniest documentaries ever made.
American Movie: Amateur filmmaker is trying to get his horror movie made over multiple years. Follows him and his cast (locals/family) and the terrible movie they make.

A story of misplaced political activism/terrorism and the mind-blowing incompetence by the authorities who were tasked with handling it. Or, The Fog of War, in which Robert McNamara - late US Secretary of Defence - talks candidly about America's devious role in many 20th Century events.
Yeah good one. The Fog of War: need to check that one out.

I must admit, I am a die hard carnivore. But that doc did make me think about eating less meat too. Check Joe Rogan podcast too with the doc maker. Very interesting.
The same here- ended up eating less meat just because I started eating more veg :) Not a black/white path though as there are A LOT of poor quality "vegan"-labelled products with tonnes of salt and things that are much worse than meat.
Was just about to say, totally agree - Vegan doesnt mean healthy. We got wrapped up in Beyond meat etc etc but you check the ingredients and most contain methylcellulose and other synthetic products that we are not totally clear on how they effect your body - stick to vegetables, fruits and if anything you buy has less that 5 ingredients in it, you are on to a winner 🙏🏽

What happened to Old-school Vendors
I remember my 1st order from a yoda character and it was hilarious.
Are You a seller?
![[Vendors' Union]](https://i2.littlebiggy.net/images/u/w/300/adLyMlpjDlfAcOIH.jpg)
What happened to Old-school Vendors
There used to be a quite a few top-sellers here, the likes of Captain Crunch, Maddame Deal, NextDayWeedUK to name a few....now all gone. Wondering what happened, why did they leave LB?
Risk - reward
Going the post office none stop is risky if you're posting bud, not so bad for me as I only sell oil, butter and decarb on here as none of them smell too strong, and once vac packed, they could be anything.
Posting directly into the post box is also a hassle because there are often people who will claim their item never arrived ( hence 1st class signed only for my products)
Then theres the price - I can sell my top end flower for £180 an ounce all day which is $245, but I'd also need to make an extra 12% -14% on top of that on here due to LB sales fees, bitcoin fees, fiat exchange rate fees, packaging.
All that is to just hit the figures you can sell locally for.
So I'd need to be selling ounces for $350 to make all the extra hassle worth it, and then you end up with a load of comments saying your too expensive, taking the piss etc.
Never say never, but for now, that's my reasons for not selling flower on here and I'd imagine that's the conclusion some of the other sellers have come to over time.
Cheers

Vendors come and go. Some can still be found on other market places. I saw Hogwarts pop up the other day. Not seen them in over a year. Life sometimes changes priorities.
Many avenues to acquire the good erb online my friend. LB is a gem, though. I'm sure they are fine. There is only so long most people can be back and for the post office every day.
The smart vendors reach a threshold where referral income eclipses the selling business.
Believe it, with a shutterbuggin talent like your own you could be singing the same tune.
Think about it kid, the referrals are pure profit and they last for years, no matter who is selling to your peeps. Selling is tough especially from the logisitcs and personnel side let alone sourcing and security. Add the rise of bitcoin and Bob's your Uncle only not your rich one anymore, cause that be you.

I’ve often pondered your angle on here Todd and it’s really interesting,but then apart from back onto here, where would one post referral links for a site selling such frowned upon goods? lol Wouldn’t suit my vocation or the mother inlaw’s (Facebook) opinion of me lol
Delighted you asked my bigga, you are in great shape with reddit and a host of smaller sites you can find with a search of cannabis communities.
Your pics are pro skills that means you can post them as content itself and link back for more pics. No open promotion is needed.
Facebook has supportive groups (think I even saw your mother in law in one) for cannabis but remember *any* content here can be linked to. It can be a meme, a joke or even a news opinion post. It doesn't have to be your own post as long as it has your link the registered bigga is your little earner for life.

What is the best DIY bong?
People we need to turn our bottles into bongs!
Holy shit! Did that in school 15+ years ago. Do kids even have pens at school anymore!?!?!
I bought a device on eBay that screws onto almost any bottle, turning it into a bong. When the bong water gets nasty just throw the bottle away and attach it to a new bottle. It's not completely DIY but it still has some merit nonetheless. Besides, nobody likes dealing with bong water and it's easier to hide when compared to a regular bong.
where were you . Back in the day I remember so many times we could have used this. why didnt we ever think of this. lol.. love it. thankyou
When we were little the wikihow salesman used to come door to door with books like this
That they would sell newer versions of there Bong every few months. That cost more then the last one and has miner improvements. Auto makers found it didn't work for them but it has worked for Apple
If you mean best and don't mind finding some tubing and drilling you will have something that beats most expensive bongs
Cut the bottom off a 2 litre bottle of pop, stick it in a bucket of water, use a milk bottle foil cap to to make a cap and fill with weed. Light it and pull up. Make sure you press down as you inhale.
Ahhh the old bucket method. Takes me back to the 90s that one!
We used to do these with a cheap bottle of pop from Kwik Save, a foil KitKat wrapper, and then go to the local park and subtlely make use of the penny wish fountain!

We used to do these with a cheap bottle of pop from Kwik Save, a foil KitKat wrapper, and then go to the local park and subtlely make use of the penny wish fountain!

we once used a drinking fountin bottle, a speaker grill (for gauze) and pulled it in a m8's bath ...lmao
Haha awesome
Try, a 500 ML soda bottle + a few inches of garden hose + cake icing socket... voila !! Homemade shotgun bong

The bottle and small pipe combo is the most quality and convenience I have ever had the high honor to imbibe.
You take a real simple weed pipe, metal or glass, and stick it in the mouth of the bottle.
If the bottle is plastic use any sharp object to stick a hole at the base.
Hold the bottle horizontally, put a straw in that hole and prepare for a monstrosity of a hit.
If it's a glass bottle you need something super sharp for the hole at the bottom, the tip of a strong knife or an ice pick does the job easily.
Water is optional, you don't need and its hard to balance. The best part of this is no cleanup, chuck the bottle when you are done, imagine a bong with a disposable chamber, that's what you got now bro.

I think what you have there is a DIY steam roller, I had one of these and loved it, yes water is totally optional its the expansion that does the magic and water is almost guaranteed to make a mess.

My special skill is that I can McGyver a bong out of almost anything.
Basically, as long as you have tin foil you can do anything. Make pipes: a few wraps, tight around a pencil, seal with scotchtape lengthways. Fan out the end before doing so. Tear a circle of tinfoil, and a pin ("anyone wearing a badge?"), open the back page of an unloved book, place the foil on the paper, and tap the pin up and down repeatedly and you have a perfectly serviceable gauze that you can poke in the end of your fanned pipe.
I prefer not to smoke out of anything plastic. Just seems like we know not to burn plastic in the outdoors, so keep that shit away from your lungs, right?
Fruit has always been a friend for the thrown together party bong. Watermelon is obviously beautifully carvable. Always thought a papaya, with its natural internal chamber and a couple of pipes would probably be viable. Poke holes into the fruit with a screwdriver or, if you don't have one, a pencil or pen.
Finally, you can make an incredible ice bong, but it's a faff. Get two barbeque skewers. Place them in a pint glass, of water with the ends 10cm from the bottom of the glass. I made an inverted kind of A frame with some tinfoil to hold them. If you do the same, keep the crossbar out of the water. Freeze the glass.
Boil the kettle. Use a combination of twisting and pulling to extract the metal skewers. Then, tilt so that one side is facing down over a sink and slowly pour boiling water into the holes. Eventually, you'll have a bong. Make a tin foil gauze. Smoke like a muthafking champion.

Bag bong-get a 2 litre pop bottle cut bottom of,then attach a pedal bin bag to the bottom where its cut of with tape,then attach a length of string to the bottom of the bag so you can pull it to draw the smoke in,then cut a hole in the cap and make a bowl with some foil,put holes in with a pin-done.
Put your choice of cannabis in the bowl when lighting it have your foot on the string and pull up,the smoke will enter the bottle as the bag is drawn out.
Unscrew the lid and inhale ALL the smoke,hold,then blow it back in and pull on the string again so it fills up again,repeat until all the smoke is gone.
You will be high as fuck.
Some call these a lung.

We made a coconut one once, didn't last long.
My goto was
Plastic Plumbing down pipe
Aerosol can lid that fitted snugly.
Bluetack or silicone around the base to help keep it airtight
Electrical tape on the outside at the top of the can lid, again to keep airtight
Copper plumbing pipe, with a connector on the end for the bowl.
Made a hole in the plumbing tube, heated up with a lighter, you can push the copper tube through.
More bluetack/ tape or silicone around that area so it was airtight.
Rush hole about an inch above and to the side.
Finally name it, we always called them Billy.

Someone should get on to Carlsberg. Currently, Carlsberg don't make bongs but if they did, they'd probably be the best bongs in the world
Small Fanta bottle, they're already the right shape. Lighter to make holes on front and back in the right places for a rush/carb and a downpipe. Then use a bit of garden hose for downpipe with a bit off a socket set in the end to use as a cylinder cone. Then either a circle cutting from the metal gauze in a coffee percolator as a screen, or a piece of foil with some pin holes in, or just a small ball of foil. Schmoke it up in style, all for the price of a small bottle of Fanta. 💚💦
The simplest bong/pipe I made was a used can of coke.Dent the can enough to rest weed on and put pinholes in it, simples!
Some of my favourite emergency methods...and I consider myself a bit of an expert...
Pop a L shape hole through an apple, carrott or similar using a kebab stick, scoop out a cone with your fingernail. Chuff away.
"Pin ups" Flip a badge on it's back stick a lump of hash on it, ignite and stick any glass over the top. Slide the glass to the edge of a table and suck the cooled contents out of the gap.
Bamboo Bong - Made by Thai locals in seconds with a couple of swipes of a machete. Scoop some water from a stream and your off.
Papaya stem (hollow with a coney end) straight into a cola bottle seal the neck with your lips and finger. Hey presto. Indonesian bong.

3.5 years after being on this brilliant site and after 15 successful orders my latest order has disappeared without trace..
Ordered, paid for and marked as sent on the 30th September but still no sign of delivery 12 days later.
The vendor has been great, saying leave a while and will sort out a reship, I've ordered from them before without any issue so have no worries about stealth or honesty from them BUT...
...My paranoia is going through the roof! Has it been intercepted and now I'm about to get a visit from the boys in blue? Every day of non delivery the fear and loathing builds..
Has anyone experienced this? Any wise words to set my mind at ease?

Unless you placed a BIG order nobody’s coming…it will probably arrive or Postman Pat is getting baked at your expense…it’s shit but like you say it’s a very rare occurrence….
If i get a knock at the door my plan is to get on my knees and offer myself to whoever wants a piece!
Chill my friend. Very, very worst case scenario and you got a knock at the door (and I can't stress enough how unlikely this is to happen!) Just tell them you know absolutely nothing about it.
It could be anybody who knows you and your address to be fair.
Keep the faith it may still turn up

I sent out two packages to the same address about 6 months ago when RM was even more on it's arse than it is now. The first package arrived, the second didn't so after a week or so i sent out a 'third' reship which arrived in under 2 days.
4 weeks later the second package turned up! The buyer was decent enough to let me know.
It's a right shit show at RM at the moment so i wouldn't be surprised if it does turn up one day and even if it doesn't, you've got nothing to worry about.
"I didn't order that....no idea what it is..."

Royal Mail 'lose' 14 million parcels a year.
I've had three orders from different vendors vanish since May 2020 when I joined. This is from over 100 orders made in this time. One of them was tracked and I had the code.
In none of these cases did the popo show up, or anything come of it other than me not having the weed.
So, all is well dude.

about the same for me bud well over 100 orders and i had 2 or 3 that went missing and that was ages ago not recently
i do always try to do tracked or at least 1st class signed for as they never seam to go missing
Hey, not sure if this helps but.....
So I have had the same issue, on Friday apparently RM are alerting the police were packaging is suspicious. The police obviously turned up and my package was collected by them (attached their signature)......
As I have a family member who works there I know what the can and cannot do....
They won't just turn up to your house (Not sure if ordered a massive amount (Bar)) Even then, its rare they just don't have the time money or focus to look at this.
Also you cannot be charged with anything......attempting to order weed?....I suppose if they want to be clever then they should have let it get delivered...
Don't worry.......it will all be good! The Police are actually ok (in my experience!)

Excellent points from the Otter!
With post the vendor takes all the risk as there are clearly offences of using RM to send controlled items (& supply!). But it’s gets very vague at your end. If it’s a BIG quantity then they could fish around for aiding & abetting or even conspiracy to supply but at the personal use level it’s a non starter.
RM charter means they have to go through the motions if some jobsworth picks up a stinky bag…it’s why stealth is such a priority! 👍

Exactly, completely agree.
The issue with mine was down to stealth and an element of being unlucky. The RM cannot check everything, mind you advice I did get was not to use Special Delivery in the UK.....
Perspective is needed and this is really rare....e.g 90 orders 1 loss......not bad really....
The seller btw, has been good so far, will keep you all updated.

I’m avoiding Special Delivery after my issue with getting nabbed at the sorting office. Sticking with stealthy 1st class. Travels in bigger bags and less likely to be seen by anyone other than your posty.
Thanks for the messages all.. much appreciated! The mind can do to very strange places if not punctuated by someone else's perspective...
My last order took less than 24 hours to arrive so this was not expected.. but the more I used LB the more I knew that something like this would happen eventually...
Your comments have lightened my mood although I still can't quite shake the feeling that there is a packet of cannabis edibles floating around somewhere out there with my name and address on!!
Will post back here if they ever turn up

As others have said, don't lose any sleep over it. Even in the incredibly unlikely event that anyone comes to see you, as long as you deny all knowledge they have nothing.
The odds it's been seized vs simply getting lost, or at worst pilfered by a postie are tiny. I've had one go missing a few weeks ago, still never shown up. Contact the vendor & resolve it with them a good one will always work with you.
Most of all don't worry mate. It's seriously not a problem at all, aside from being down some weed at worst.

I wouldn’t worry about it to much buddy don’t think the police are that bothered about weed anymore finally realised they’ve got better things to do 🙂
im in the same boat. shipped on 27th and no news. i think it has more to do with a backlog in shipping throughout world. could take up to 21days. i agree with others on here that cops have better things to do, so i wouldn't panic. keep the faith, brother
You will be ok my friend. My second ran over the order time and came over 3 weeks later. Hopefully it arrives 😎
If you have used the vendor previously and you're confident in the stealth that was used, i personally think it's more likely that a vendor made a mistake and the parcel wasn't posted to begin with, rather than it being siezed.
Hope you get it sorted, don't let your time run out to raise a dispute 👍

just have to shout out for this one, its got me through lockdown. along with you biggaz :)
Another great vr fighting game worth a look is gorn. Similar in many ways but a more animated wacky gladiator style with incredible physics. The weapons really feel accurate to the movement. Its only a cheap game, but after a few days does get a little repetitive, but great for 15 quid.
this game killed one of my quest controllers :( it was fun while it lasted tho :) hell of a workout!

work weed?
sativa am + indica pm all week and drinking on the weekends :)
work weed?
Couldn't imagine work without it. Of course I can't imagine anything without it. It's been too long.
But what about you biggaz? What kind of work works a bit stoned?
But what about you biggaz? What kind of work works a bit stoned?
Correct. I use CBD in the evenings and they have the same terpene profiles as regular THC weed. In the day I use CBDv and CBG.
Exactly this - a good solid sativa while working/needing to be out and about then once thats all over it's either hybrid (if afternoon) or straight to Indica if it's evening for a tranquil end
I'm an airline pilot and I couldn't ferry hundreds of people between continents unless I am so baked I'm having a whitey in the cockpit
😂 I just cannot work baked due to the massive responsibilities
It’s totally incompatible. Leisure time though is another story although I’m pretty strict self discipline wise
I take a few months break every once In a while to flush out my system and maintain mental health etc
Not everyone is gonna be the same
Works for me anyhoo…

All ropy lines of employment in recent years and I think cannabis use is the least of our worries well apart from dentist unless it’s Glennon Edward Engleman
There's no way in hell I could get baked at work, especially off my own crop. There'd be no way of hiding my red eyes, low levels of activity and insatiable appetite. On second thoughts, I think I've just myself every day.
I could do/have done my job stoned but I don’t see any point as I can’t really enjoy it when I’m working. I also don’t get people who you can smell have just smoked a fatty before getting on the bus at 7 in the morning. Don’t they ever actually wake up for the day?? I couldn’t do that lol.
I smoke at work to make it go faster, only reason and it works more social and can function if I don’t go crazy on a pen.m
Cliche, I know. But sativa day, Indi/hybrid night.
If only they knew it could be used as a catalyst for efficiency and productivity.
If only they knew it could be used as a catalyst for efficiency and productivity.
I have hardly ever smoked at work, probably 3 or 4 times in 23 years,I guess it depends on what type of person and job you do,I do bricklaying /groundworks/general building,what do others do?
If I'm honest with you I'd prefer not to say. I used to be very cavalier on lb but having seen the digital platforms change so rapidly over the last few years, I value my privacy and anonymity.
What I will say is that I'm self employed. Work 10-12+ days, 7 days, I have a family and my work is a mixture of non manual, hard manual and a lot of administrative tasking.
So, weed helps, a lot. I'm also married with children. We can do a lot in a day, on or off weed.
Guess as you said, depends on the the person and the job they do.
Peace be with you.

If you’re just buying weed it’s neither here nor there. You’ll need to give whoever you go with some photo id and you have to buy some somehow*. Nobody cares.
If you’re selling, or for some other reason need to remain disconnected it’s a bigger conundrum.
Protonmail will give you email ring fencing, but if you’re buying henrys on your mobile it’s pointless.

Item Rankings?
i dont think they are rankings
It’s an enduring mystery. Most of what we see on here is algorithm driven and apparently the Wall is sequenced based on a number of factors including overall activity: click rate, topics, votes, reviews, sales etc.
Whilst that makes some sense, it doesn’t explain why sometimes a high risk new vendor with a couple of dodgy looking listings sometimes gets propelled to the top and the hard working honest much loved vendor struggles to make an appearance.
I can think of a few vendors who thoroughly deserve to be up there but despite their best efforts never seem to get there.
Weird…😵💫

Yup ... agree 100%, the strangest things appear at the top and seem to stick. Not necessarily bad products but a bit niche somehow- Dagga Pucks, great love it, landrace, history, but always in my top 10? Can't be sales then surely, maybe the invisible algorithms like images that aren't the norm, ie machine trimmed, pgr bloated "Cali" golf ball factory rejects? ;)
think like an algo, the wall is very likely using us to provide scrutiny, not just rewarding the subject of our attention.
I have been educating myself shall we say by spending too much time the day on the topic's wall
But cheers man hope your good ?
But cheers man hope your good ?
Seems like certain vendors seem to dominate disproportionately. Maybe it’s done on most sales?
Scrolling down all the time can be a real pain when all the best vendors are further down. There's no logic to it
Agreed. Laziness of this site is ridiculous. I used to have a Toking record bag in the mid 90’s 😄

simply amazed a site doing what it does on the clearnet does not accept Monero! My predecssor said it was an issue all the years back so don't think it will be solved which is a shame :(
Does anyone on this site offer payment in XMR? So many nice items but i don't want to pay in BtC
Unfortunately not. Last year there was a rumor that Litecoin would be accepted, but that never happened.

Partially Paid order
Guys, this topic has been surfacing here and there a couple of times but I have never seen it discussed clearly. Hope someone would be able to explain...I have made an order, I have paid the exact amount PLUS fees, everything is clearly confirmed in my record of this transaction, and yet the vendor is now asking for extra 0.003 BT. How is this possible?, the price is in BTs, I have paid exactly what I was asked, how is it possible that the vendors has not received it all?... i am not happy to pay the extra (and of course another fee for this extra transaction!), but vendor is obviously holding the sword by the handle now... suggestions?
Hi, your order confirmation page will show what the vendor asked and what you have paid, have you checked this? If they both match you can point this out to the vendor.
maybe you didnt have enough in your wallet to pay the vendor and the network fee? just message and ask seller to deduct what he feels is neccessary from your purchase
I normally transfer a little extra when making order just to avoid this it happens to me all the time if u still have the address that u sent the bit coin to (might be inside wallet) then just send a little extra over like £1-2 normally sorts it out for me might not be what ur asking but if it is sometimes u have to bite the bullet :)
i understand but does not explain what happens(ed) ... you seem to suggest that the vendor can randomly make this up to get some extra monies?... yikes! considering how much they have gain with BTs coin to ceiling, being chased after for 0.003 (BTW not £1-2, probably 15 times that including new fees to transfer again!) feels a bit greedy... i guess i need to buy more BTC now so I can have what I purchased already released... feels like a brexit fee!
What can happen is the amount of btc you send is pretty close to the dollar value ie 0.0007 btc = $70.13 and your order is for $70, if btc value should drop during the transaction and lb auto adjusts prices your 0.0007 is now worth less than the $70.
This creates the partial order,the vendor is looking at lb prices and sees they should have been sent 0.0008 to cover the $70,that is why sometimes when you put an order in you find that the amount of btc you are sending dollar value is actually higher than the product asking price in dollars.
This can be worse the higher the amount of btc you are sending.
Its not your fault,its not the vendors fault and its not lb fault its just the way btc works,yes it is a pain in the butt.

There is a few solutions you could for example if you notice that the btc value is close to the dollar value you could send 0.00072 this will gave you a safety net of a dollar incase btc value drops,the other way could be lb adding another decimal place to the prices,it would not stop it from happening but might cut back on the number of times it happens,especially when btc is bouncing up and down like a pair of whores knickers.
Scratch that thinking again it would probably make it worse.

I have underpaid before, I fell short by about £5 and the vendor just asked me to add the extra to my next order. There is always a network fee, which fluctuates depending on the time of day. Your vendor is stating your around £130 short? If that's correct that's a large amount by anyones standards. The transaction showing in your wallet 'sent ' file should show exactly what you paid and have the vendors wallet address that received it. I believe transactions via LB are handled by Escrow so if you have definitely paid in full, they should be able to help.
The network fee is clearly added to the sum when you do the transfer, it does not magically pop up at some stage. I had enough BTC, so really this make no sense...
ok, i meant a fee was applied and I could see that when i paid from my wallet... you seem to suggest another fee might have been applied in the process which i did not see...? that would be strange because the transaction record shows the entire amount being transferred, no record of another fee being applied...
