The Catholics needed a pedant on their side not a pendant. Taken literally this position gets a lot easier to defend.

The Catholic Church is a Force for Good in the World : IQ^2 Debate
Fry and Hitchens take on the Archbishop and Tory MP
I'm not sure trying to peg any organisation as objectively good or bad is possible, but also fuck the Catholic Church and all they are.
laugh all you like but the basic philosophy of jesus is love and that is exactly what the world needs.
Let's have a look at bit of history:
1) Reconquista of Spain - overcame the previous more liberal Islamic Al-Andalus. Explusion of Jews & Muslims
2) The cultural rape of the Americas - effectively extinguishing the native way of life
3) All of those European wars which were pretty much Catholics vs Prods (Prods as bad as Catholics in this case)
4) More recently - at a time of AIDs and other STDs saying use of condoms 'evil'.
5) Messing up the psyche of its followers by seeing sex as dirty
6) A great place to work as a preist if you don't like adult women and prefer to have sex with under age boys and girls.

Already seen this you don't want to know my take as a Satanic/pagan Witch/warlock ... But i agree with stephen about most things. The part i can't stomach is that The church brag (Or used to) about their il educated followers from africa.. one reason why i returned to the ways of my old english ancestors.. in all things balance and respect for nature and our home.. Ave Lucifer the light bringer and Giver of knowlage .. Ave lilith mother of all witches and reflection of the black sun.
the word Devil means adversary... Rowling XD are you another one of those magic is the work of the devil hacks??
"Giver of knowlage..."
Well that all sounds pretty knowlagabel to me.
Were do I syne up?
Cheers BB 👌

XD lucifer before the bible... In Roman folklore, Lucifer was the name of the planet Venus, Also worshiped as a wisdom god.
Is spelling and grammar not a part of "wisdom and knowledge?" (or knowlage)
You'd have thought the old Lucibubs would've at least armed you with a dictionary.
Anyway, each to their own. ❤️

this explans it better https://partiallyexaminedlife.com/2020/02/25/lucifer-how-a-decent-deity-got-a-bad-rap-part-1/ and i was never very good at eather of those i was always more creative. XD i'll be the first one to admit i can't spell and my grammer since the net has gone to pot ... XD
There's nothing wrong with having limited spelling and grammar buddy, but I struggle to understand why you would come on here claiming "wisdom and knowledge" given to you by some dark force when you can't even spell the words properly....
I know nothing about open heart surgery, so I'm not going to claim I have "specialism in the field" when it's very clear I don't.
Wisdom has nothing to do with education, but to claim you have wisdom AND knowledge, because you worship the devil...
Yet you can't even spell 'knowledge'...
Sorry. But that needed to be called out.
Spelling and grammar are nothing. Manners maketh the man.
All the best and like I say, each to their own just please don't claim to have superiority in wisdom and knowledge by worshiping anyone, least of all the devil and witches.
Cheers BB

i don't worship any deity i work with them and i never claimed they gave me anything. the last part of what i said was just Veting or honouring the witch king and queen ( the male and female aspects of nature) i never claimed anything...
Fair enough buddy, sorry if I got the wrong end of the stick.
All the best ❤️

No problem BB also Keats and Einstein (sry for the spelling) couldn't spell so saying somone is not wise because they can't spell i feel is redundant. i guess what im trying to say even the dumbest of us can be wise. I mean even the dimist of sparks like myself still puts out a little light :)
Now you're making me feel bad. 😔 Sorry. I do post derogatory shit sometimes when I'm awake late.
You keep doing your thing buddy if it makes you happy.
Much love to you. ❤️

same G we are not perfect only human after all eh ? :) And i will, I feel what ever faith or not anyone follows if it makes them a better person it can only be a good thing right ? ... i just feel some where along the path people started to use it for control and not to help and heal..
I don't think I've ever heard or seen Widdicombe and not immediately wanted to scrape my eyes out and shove dynamite in my ears.
What a horrificly horrible and hateful person she is. Eugh

I don't like Anne Widdecombe at all, but from what I remember from this debate (I watched it a few years ago) she switched from Christianity to Catholoisim because of the amount of hypocrisy in the C of E.
Now don't even get me started on the hypocrisy in the Catholic Church, but I must admit I do somewhat sympathise with the point she was making.
You can't have a religion based upon a book that says "we don't agree with homosexuality" then just ignore that view because it's no longer popular.
It's like the Christian Church is now willing to ignore any of its doctrines just to remain "relevant", and get some likes on Twitter.
If you're going to be a bigoted religion, at least own it.
I'm not really into arguing about religion or politics, and I'm neither religious nor particularly political, but I do have to admit a begrudging respect for any religion that at least sticks by it's dogmatic roots, however ridiculous those roots are.
That's pretty much all I got from Widdicombe that was worth thinking about.
The rest of her nonsense....isn't worth anyone's time.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

All versions of Christianity ignore some parts of the bible because it's not popular. The Bible says not to wear two different types of fabric at once, and to sell your daughter to her rapist, but no Christians are abiding by that. They are all as bad as each other, to pretend like she's calling out hypocrisy by changing from one hateful religion to another is so deceitful, another part of the reason she is scum.

Hi, I placed an order as usual, though in this case for two separate vendors. I was logged in, sent the bitcoin via transaxe as usual but discovered a day later that the order was missing! I have no record of what happened to it - just the bitcoin address!

what comes after the web?
since religions were organized, self preserving entities that transcend all people.
Decentralisation, rebirth of the concept of governments and banks (stores of value and loans of value), the internet of money, the exchange of favours peer to peer, the recognition of favours, global decentralised online democracy, micro businesses go parabolic, communities become self sufficient, govts lose control. Its happening.
True though. example..I cashed out £3k yesterday just for posting on a crypto sub on reddit for a few years, 3-4 posts a week.. erc20 rewards. I use brave browser which offers free anti tracking, https upgrades, ad free browsing (inc youtube) and it pays as you go with BAT token. It covers my premium netflix monthly subscription and costs nothing.
Elon ain’t what he’s appearing to be.
Anyone involved with those robots needs hanging from a tree.

I've read about this before bud but never decided to do it as I felt it would be too little. Can you explain more about it, i'd love to know with regards of how active you actually were. its a very clever idea. did you pay for brave or was it free? I'll go check it out thanks for sharing :D
We bio engineer ourselves into organic super computers, harness the planets electromagnetic field as a server and live as gods in virtual reality.
but it won't be 'us' providing this world, it'll be engineered and controlled by a select few people who will have total control over everyone
ai has been in control since the 19th century, we are working for the machines, not vice versa
Web 5. Decentralisation of personal data. Anonymity. Buyers Markets. People realise phones arent phones and just tracking chips that post spam in your face all day so we go back to mp3 players that make calls. We reverse the inversion and regain the ability to tell human from computer and truth from fiction again.
Humanity cannot progress or achieve the things we used to while big data has us pinned down with the technology and the mind games, constantly draining every penny we have. We're so busy trying to create money with our bare hands to pay off the debt they are creating that we can't get anywhere and never will.
People are working to take apart that system as we contemplate.
For now at least we have LB.

It seems more than ever the Old guard sees the next wave coming and is way more on top of it than previous leaders. this alone makes it interesting
a dildo in the face one in the butt and a fleshlight on the cock, they will convince you you are a real person and you work for onlyfans, but there will be millions of you all stacked up as far as the eye can see.
Cybernetic implants that turn you into a computer then we will go too far and try and turn the planet into a super computer and blow ourselves up again and it will be back to painting on cave walls.
When the web is fully developed, all endpoints interconnected and in harmony, I usually walk right into it and get it stuck in my hair.
Neural net will likely be next. You will see the net when you want in your own eyes. Real time everything. No screens, no devices except inside you.

Einstein: The universal force is LOVE
A letter from Albert Einstein to his daughter, Lieserl on The Universal Force of Love
“When I proposed the theory of relativity, very few understood me, and what I will reveal now to transmit to mankind will also collide with the misunderstanding and prejudice in the world.
I ask you to guard the letters as long as necessary, years, decades, until society is advanced enough to accept what I will explain below.
There is an extremely powerful force that, so far, science has not found a formal explanation to. It is a force that includes and governs all others, and is even behind any phenomenon operating in the universe and has not yet been identified by us. This universal force is LOVE.
When scientists looked for a unified theory of the universe they forgot the most powerful unseen force. Love is Light, that enlightens those who give and receive it. Love is gravity, because it makes some people feel attracted to others. Love is power, because it multiplies the best we have, and allows humanity not to be extinguished in their blind selfishness. Love unfolds and reveals. For love we live and die. Love is God and God is Love.
This force explains everything and gives meaning to life. This is the variable that we have ignored for too long, maybe because we are afraid of love because it is the only energy in the universe that man has not learned to drive at will.
To give visibility to love, I made a simple substitution in my most famous equation. If instead of E = mc2, we accept that the energy to heal the world can be obtained through love multiplied by the speed of light squared, we arrive at the conclusion that love is the most powerful force there is, because it has no limits.
After the failure of humanity in the use and control of the other forces of the universe that have turned against us, it is urgent that we nourish ourselves with another kind of energy…
If we want our species to survive, if we are to find meaning in life, if we want to save the world and every sentient being that inhabits it, love is the one and only answer."

I don’t think any of this is new. Didn’t Nolan try to shoehorn in and expand on this theory in interstellar where he had the character Brand’s love for an astronaut gone before her, is so strong that it’s one of the only other forces that can exist cross dimensionally apart from gravity.
Call me a romantic but I find it hard to believe you or many humans love and hate equally - outside of sport.
I guess we have more wars than orgies! 🤭
But seriously, if we accepted that emotional energy is just that- and energy is a constant that can neither be created nor destroyed, in the whole of human experience would there be more positive energy than negative?…I’d like to think so…but….

Worst song ever? And why... GO!
i dont mean to get personal but why did you need the rat if you had a tampon?
Anything by Elton John fucking hate the cunt and his music, my wife ruined my Xmas day few years back by telling me a gay singer i didnt like had died.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
and i feel better about myself, you know plotting his murder and all. george michael on the other hand was a genius and worth a quickie in the facility of his choosing
Hahahaha, I actually like Elton, well as much as a straight man can but that made me laugh man.
Tiny Dancer and Rocket Man are OK songs. Other than that Elton John is soooooo overrated.
Fairground simply red, gives me violent thoughts of grabbing mick by his flowing red curls and bouncing his head of every hard surface available. Total pissflap
Yeah anything by Simply Red can give me Forrest Whittaker eye but Fairground is especially bad
And imagine being called Eileen when it came on down the pub back in the day…. Poor cow needed 3 packs of baby wipes.
Too many but Will Smith - Wild Wild West has got to be up there surely. It’s like some record execs put a gun to his head and said ‘Dance bitch!’
Do you think they did it again to willow ? I whip my hair even for a 13 year old was fucking awful
that movie had so much going for it and they still blew it, would make a better series than a lot of shit
Nothing Compares to You by Sinead Depressing Cunt O'Connor that song has the warmth and charm of a dead Rat lying next to a used Tampon.
That Barbie girl tune, need I say why! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
Ok you win… The grandma I love you song was fucking horrendous, then they felt the need to create the sequel… Grandpa I love you… I mean we got the message the first time.
Lol. She is a liar too, when that Leo chap drowned in the ice, his heart certainly didn’t go on….
Watch this with your sound on, and I think you will agree no further explanation is required.

"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are"
My question is - how many faces did he previously change to suit his needs. He's amazed he found someone who's face doesn't need rearranging. This man is a psycho folks.

Keane - Bedshaped.
Stupid, depressing lyrics that make no sense at all.
Bedshaped? That'll be a bed then...
I hate it because it reminds me of the two weeks I spent crawling around a 20 inch deep subfloor void for 8 hours a day, doing timber treatments on a huge old house.
That shit was on the radio every 20 mins for the whole time we were there.
Scarred me 🙉

If you really want a contender for worst song, you need to listen to Taylor Swift Gorgeous. The song composition and the lyrics seem like they were written by a child.
Also majority of her songs. She did a cover of September by earth wind and fire that haunts me... She turned funk into folk what the actual fuck.
hahaha.. funny to see Zeppelin here because it did occur to me too . Seems like everybody has to adore their music :P
I forgot all about this,Hey plenty of Zepp stuff is fine but that song really gets my goat the first time i heard it i never knew who it was my missus had been putting cd's in the laptop and they kept getting synched to my ipod it came on random one day and i just went wtf is this shit before looking who it was, it sounds to me like a holiday camp band doing reggae.
All musicians steal mate and say they were inspired. A lot of that era were the same. Keith Richards does it. Don’t think that takes away from them as musicians.
Cool, mine too. Sometimes I feel like the great Alan in your photo speaking to younger people. AHA. I was sick with laughter when he got hit with a cow. Steve coogans characters are genius. All the way back to the calf family
as a punk i was always compelled to hate led zep, it was a mistake, i still hate most classic rock still (with merit now) but these guys were really in a class by themselves.
I’m too nice to downvote as maybe that’s how you feel but seriously? The band who gave us in my time of dying can never be fuckin awful.

Hello pals , we have just had a 1/10 score saying top service , we don’t know if it is mistake or a bit of skullduggery 🧐, but if it was a mistake can you change it please 💯❤️😎👍🏻🧐
Stoners man. Meant to put the 1 day and messed it up, presumably? Nearly done that myself when incredibly baked and excited to leave my review.
Mate, I sent a vendor a not that positive review once in the message box below the review bit! That was kinda awkward. Then I left the review.
We're not on speaking terms sadly. He's a bit of a prick of I'm being honest. Jezzy was a laugh though, we'd go down to the lake and get pished on lake water wine

It was Elton John's 150th birthday and I had nothing to wear...
will the real elton john please stand up? i thought then i get out of the bed, micheal and latoya jr still lying besides me the sequin eyemask drops t…
did i hate him when he was still an organic? sure, but the rhythm of his new brain was spectacular and when he did 10 years as a centenarian for killing lionel ritchie we all gave him props.
then suddenly i saw it, a corsett shaped like a pinball machine, i couldnt believe it the flippers were working dildos.
So what decided on designing a sequin outfit, after days and days of hard work I show up to his party. I then remembered that Elton John had an altered personality due to all of the children’s blood he drank in order to keep alive so long.
He looked at me, triggered from his past, seeing the sequins sparkling something triggers in his brain….
He starts to decompose in front of my eyes. In all his hate he remembered being alive sucked and started to disintegrate.
After watching him disintegrate I start realising it was all a dream…. I start coming around.
I see a sequin top on the floor, I am like “da fuck”, I roll over in bed to find Avid Merrion in his Elton John mask looking at me directly in the eyes and shouts “fuck off or i will bum you”

How Our Reality May Be a Sum of All Possible Realities
For a particle traveling through space, the amplitudes of more or less straight paths all point essentially in the same direction, amplifying each other. But the amplitudes of winding paths point every which way, so these paths work against each other. Only the straight-line path remains, demonstrating how the single classical path of least action emerges from unending quantum options.
This is something I've pondered. My theory is our brains are quantum computers that decipher the universe. Let's not forget how our observation and perception actually changes the make up of the universe. We know that energy/matter are interchangeable and that particles can behave as waves. Diagrams of particles are shown as circles, these are spheres of probability - where we think the particles may be. We know that what we perceive as solid physical matter is 90% empty space. Therefore, our brain instantly calculated the average location of every particle in a structure to perceive it. This could be in an infinite number of ways so we see one version of infinite.

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

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!

This has one of the greatest lyrics lines of any song ever written imo
"No liberal lefty cunt

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.

If we don't need authority for trust what do we need it for?
we need less screwing and more ..screwing
I think there's a problem with the word authority. Some authorities are voluntarily recognised by people as experts so their opinions are amplified. Seems like a really good thing.
The other kind is an authority imposing power upon you through a monopoly, usually a monopoly on violence.

So authority is actually you .... You decide whether to follow it or not --- You are Authority who is looking for Authority and asking why we need authority

The D-Notice: A Very British Way Of Censoring The Press
i thought this was going to be a rational catalogue of bbc bias - which would be a great concept
The D-Notice: A Very British Way Of Censoring The Press
"a very British form of censorship on the press. It decides which subjects and events can be reported on, and how, in a chivalrous yet fundamentally dishonest manner."
The King's privy Council are behind d notices aiui.
Used regularly whenever information could damage establishment.
Remember there was a channel 4 news editor tweeted about a D Notice on the name of the mi6 handler responsible for Sergei Skripal and his lovely daughter Yulia before the strange poisoning event in Salisbury.
Freedom of the Press is an illusion that has fooled the masses. As banks have done with money.

what's the longest time youve spent in vr?
i'm really interested in immediate effects and anything that persists. for me it's under an hour and i was disoriented for maybe 8 hours with a 1/2 life around 1 hour.
Same, although i was watching porn for about 3, maybe 4 minutes. Not gonna lie.

I'm a tantric Sex God. But also over 40, drinking relatively heavily and dabbing up to half a g a day. Y'know how it goes...

Sting with his tantric stuff was an influence on me, but only when i had to give money to Band Aid in 1984. Seems a bit too much like hard work. ;)

My mate tried VR porn, he got quite into it by all accounts. Unfortunately he lives with his parents, when he took the headset off there was a fresh cup of tea on his bedside cabinet 🤣😁
I've done maybe 4 hours, I switched up games though and that help you from over dosing in a single game.
I think the longest I've done in one go is about 3-4 hours. The weirdest part of VR for me was when I first got a headset, for about a week I felt like I was in VR all the time. The head-bobbing effect of walking in reality seemed exaggerated.
But all that's faded away now. I can use VR without any adverse effects except maybe a bit of eye strain for a long session.
But all that's faded away now. I can use VR without any adverse effects except maybe a bit of eye strain for a long session.
it seems to me the more immersive the platform the tougher it gets on the body. cheap vr gets on my nerves before i get queezy, a full on setup with peripherals and i feel like its a portal just getting back to irl.
Only1 hour. Played the space station game on occulus for about 10 minutes and felt so sick. Took me a good sleep before i felt better. Very disorientating!
For sim racing I usually use VR and I just don't like flat screen anymore, I'll probably VR for like an hour at a time. when your high and in vr racing, battling with dudes online, it's something to really try.
The last time i scuba dived i projectile vomited an hour after i got out the water. I don't think I want to try it in vr

Video reviews

Video reviews
Is anybody interested in video reviews of your products. If so where can i put them, youtube?
Im happy to add video reviews of any products that i try, and have already done some. Not posted them yet tho. I don't smoke. I only vape using storz and bickel volcano and a mighty+ so taste and flavours are so vibrant and enhanced. This way of consuming is perfect for reviewing bud…. Let me know if interested.

I'll chip in 20 bucks for a real comparison with winners and losers instead of the infomercial shite you get around here.
I would encourage online video reviews of the strain - it is really useful to get a rough idea of how something hits. Heck, small things like "this one has an unusual aroma" or "not the strongest, but smokes like a dream" are always good to learn.
The only thing I would advise against is naming the the seller and/or this website. I appreciate that weed might be perfectly legal where you live, but that isn't the case for everybody. We rely on this site staying a little off the beaten path.
If you want to specifically promote a strain or seller on here, text reviews are always greatly received. Dunno about others, but it is the first thing I look for when making a purchase. You could really help a seller out.

video reviews would be a great addition to this website. i'd say make the videos 'unlisted' on youtube so only people with the link can access it, but you probably already know that.
Have a chat with Budzinho who tried to get this started and was posting the link here to his YouTube video. It got mixed reception and the videos kept getting flagged. I’m not entirely sure what the issues are but pictures and text on this topic wall seem the best way to go….
Yeah mixed reception is accurate.
On one side you have the LB team who will reward you for posting video reviews and have been advertising similar roles for awhile. Along with the majority of biggaz who also seem to see video reviews as a positive.
Then you have a few Biggaz who are worried that a LB social media presence will result in repercussions despite the LB team telling creators to link LB to whichever social media platforms they want.
Product reviews have to be paid for by yourself otherwise they fall under the Incentivized Post's category which will result in a ban.
If your doing it solely for the love of the site and expect nothing in return then why not.

I want to do it for the love of weed. All I want is a good quality product, from a good quality vendor. I want to review the vendor and their products. I am happy to pay for everything myself, I have been buy cannabis products for over 30 years. So to review what I buy is no problem at all. The only thing holding me back. Is the vendors them selves. I am honest and straight to the point. My reviews will obviously not be anonymous there will be upset vendors I’m sure. My question is will this then affect me from buying from vendors that aren’t to happy.
Best
Regards
Colin.

Sounds great mate.
Just make sure to buy the product's you want to review on an anonymous LB account so vendor's can't send you nit-picked product.
Nobody can hold you back from this, you are entitled to review whatever products you buy, especially considering the fact that you only plan on sharing via a private link.
As you can tell by the comments on this topic, many Biggaz are interested in video reviews and you also have the backing of the LB team aswell.
Good luck and if you ever need any help with the production side of things or anything at all just let me know!

Thank you. It’s happening, I’ve set up the YouTube account just setting up a little studio space. I’m also thinking to include microscope inspections, and pressing for concentrate quality and yield,
I've not liked a lot of the weed from lb so I gave up and just order vapes mostly , could you reccomend a strong stardog/lemon haze please (pure stardog no mixes)
We are in the process of creating a static site with information about real vendors and no scammers will be entered. We already have quite a list of groups, etc. If people want to add then proof is required that they are legit.
The site also has an easy-to-read tutorial on buying Bitcoin or Monero for new users. If anyone wants to chip in (name another group or vendor etc) then pop us a message.
One thing we were not sure of was about adding people on here. The website will be on the clearnet so just wondering what people would like?
Cheers

Best Rapper 2021?
Best new rappers 2021 gotta be RX Papi and RXK Nephew, the new dynamic duo. Shawny BinLaden, Lancey Foux, SoFaygo, Jean Dawson and Sematary all go fucking crazy. Detroits new wave is hitting its stride with Sada Baby, Teejayx6, Kasher Quan, Babyface Ray and many many others. Young Thugs many kids (artistically- and in five years the biological ones too) are all on constant rotation, Lil Baby and Gunna run shit but don't sleep on Keed and Gotit. Playboi Carti made two genre-defining albums back to back. Maxo Kream and Sauce Walka killing shit in Texas. Sahbabii is as horny as ever and Young Nudy just as murderous and devilish. You may know them from memes, SpotemGotem is fine just okay but Pooh Shiesty is a young legend in the making mark my words, reminds me of Young Dolph and Gucci Mane. Lucki, Sosa, Future n Uzi stay doing their thing. I can't wait to see what Kanye has in store with us. Bladee and Black Kray have turned a corner and embraced happiness and optimism. Rap is doing great right now
I'm back a few months later Ken Carson, Yeat, Weiland, Summrs n Autumn, Kankan have all been blowing up but none shine as bright as Destroy Lonely or Lancey Foux these kids are the future

Aubrey De Grey: Can We And Should We Give Ourselves Indefinite Youth? Oh Yes
"Most biomedical gerontologists now agree that we are approaching a time of sharply accelerated progress in extending healthy lifespan."
Because not everyone will have the money for it. The rich will use it and put a price on it to make it unavailable for us normal people. The rich will the feel superior after a drug like that and we all remember what happened in the world of star trek. The eugenics war is something that will unfortunately happen on this planet one day because of them sort of drugs. I must point out I'm not against this sort of thing as science is not good or evil it's how it's used but this sort of thing is are downfall.
Surely this is an issue but most innovations are available to the rich first. What would you think of a world without cars, air travel or computers? Let the rich be our guinea pigs.
That said yeah, downfall for sure.

These bloody network fees!!!
Can't buy some hash because the fees are still stupidly high! No way I'm paying £13 just to send a small amount of bitcoin. Bloody fed up waiting for it to come down. Sorry, just having an impatient rant. This can't be good for littlebiggy vendors and the people who run the site either. Sales must be right down. Pity we are stuck with only being able to use bitcoin. There must be a better alternative?
It’s a shame Litecoin isn’t introduced as a payment method on the site. I’ve purchased from a different platform using that currency & the fees are less than £1. Hope you can order something soon 🍻
People been screaming for LTC as a bare minimum for best part of 2 years. btc just far too unstable to be the sole option, and reduced traffic here benefits no one
Yup. I lost $3,500 from one crop in 16 days when BTC tanked. Nearly made me leave LB altogether.
Just watching my money dissappear every day was one of the most depressing things I've ever experienced.
Having nobody to contact that made any sense, and having to wait it out for 16 days was like torture.
Fun times 😔
Cheers BB

I think its transaxe, lb is looking for a new payment processor, theres a few posts about this.
Found myself in a similar situation all be it on a smaller scale. Profits for the month wiped out over a few days. Would drive anyone to drink.
See most of my items are on the lower end so the fluctuations in price doesn’t really effect me that much
Had to make a purchase.
Fees using BTC were £221.
Converted coin to ETH, while it cost me £60 to convert, the fees for sending ETH were 71p.
This site really needs to introduce alternative currency

Yeah its shocking they haven't done anything still, I had to half my last order size and yesterday had to source some outside LB altogether.
I live in the scottish highlands so my alternatives are cowshit and turnips. This really needs sorting out. Buying here has become a lengthy and stressful shambles every time
Its such a shame. This site is the best thing to have ever happened to weed culture in the UK, entirely let down by this disfunctional and useless method of payment
Cost me over £40 today to send £200. Utter insanity. We NEED alternatives LB. BTC is going to be the death of the platform if we're not careful...
£30 in fees for a £35 order just can’t believe it!!!!
Does anybody actually know why this is happening???? Did an order a couple of weeks ago and the fees were normal

Btc volatility has been hugely positive recently - 20%-30% gains achieved over 30 day periods. Everyone wants to fill their wellies or take profits creating massive traffic on the blockchain. Miners can charge what they want to settle transactions. It’s proving that btc is utter shit when it comes to buying stuff! ..
Ordinals (pictures stored on a token) and BRC-20 (Shitcoins on BTC) are going nuts atm too doesn't help with fees as blocks are being spammed with shite now.
Network fees are currently absurd. Hopefully, administrators will explore alternative options. GAW
We should all go on strike. Would cause mayhem at Xmas & LB would have to pull the finger out to avoid a massive loss for them.
Yep. Literally can’t afford to buy anything on here right now.
Meh. I’ll just have to crack into my shite stuff stash.
Hopefully it’ll get back to normal soon or Christmas is gonna be ruined 😟

Just paid 6 quid to send 56 on exodus,it's shocking still but best I have seen it for a while, hope it will be down to normal before long
I'm sure that transaxe said litecoin would be an alternative payment option over a year ago, but nothing ever happened???
I just paid £36 in fees to get 0.03BTC from Bittylicious. Then it was nearly £10 in priority gas fees to send over that amount to Transaxe. It's much more expensive than usual as it's near 4% fees for the initial transaction, and that's usually 2-3% (so not massively more), but the fees to send are usually 1/10th of that.
Even though my order has expired its now 8 days and my payment is still not confirmed, so my money is stuck in the blockchain for god knows how long. This is supposed to be a community based on trust. Id say that trust has been violated by LB administrators who still have not implemented any number of stable crypto alternatives after over a year of these ongoing ludicrous fee fluctations. Where in the world would you buy any other product where you have to throw your money into the void like this? It is truly ridiculous. Vendors are losing thousands and everyone is getting shafted using BTC. I just dont get it
How are peeps checking the transfer fee/ cost?
I only know wen I’m going to pay on coin base then I see the charges
I only know wen I’m going to pay on coin base then I see the charges
Unfortunately looks like Coinbase is still charging way more than the fees on the mempool site. High priority is listed there as between $3 and $4 but Coinbase is still showing a £13 fee for a £20 transfer to Exodus. 😭 I really need to ditch Coinbase...
Did it process mate.otherlyether has posted just under here that his stuff didn’t process.
Thinking I may take the hit to order something off lb but not if it isn’t working still after paying fees
Thinking I may take the hit to order something off lb but not if it isn’t working still after paying fees
I have BTC in coinbase, need to order of LB but holding back till the high network fee comes down
Honestly these network fees are an absolute pisstake atm. We definitely need an alternative payment method on LB. I personally took the hit this time but I really can’t continue to use LB going forward if the fees stay this high, which is such a great shame because i love LB and it’s been nothing short of a god send since i’ve started using it and i’d be gutted to go back to my street dealer, but these fees leave me with no other choice
Can anyone here help me out at all please? Ive had my order expire after 4 days waiting after paying 25 quid fees on 120 quid order. Apparently the payment is still loading on the blockchain despite the order having expired. My wallet stll shows the funds in it but cant send them anywhere as theyve already been started on the blockchain. Have reached out to both Cryptonic and Transaxe with no response, Vendor couldnt help either but seems hes just as fuming as me with at least 40 orders been waiting to confirm for a week or more. So much money being thrown in the air here by all involved with no clear way of sorting out. This is a horrific mess for all concerned
Only way to sort it quick is to repay the fees, but more.
Go to this link, add your wallet address and find the btc transaction id, the btc transaction that's stuck.
This is the general btc transaction id, has nothing to do with lb nor transaxe.
You can pm me this transaction id and i can check if you can repay the fees if you want and i'll tell you exactly how.
Just know this if you paid high fees sending btc from your wallet to transaxe then you're gonna have to pay even more fees to push it through, up to you if it's worth it or not.

I just buy direct from coinbase and do it at night time.
Normally under a £ for a 100 transaction??
Normally under a £ for a 100 transaction??
It’s been £11 network fee to send from Coinbase for a week or so. Lowest it went to was £4 on Sunday morning
Finally I have been verified on coin base after many days. I will wait till Sunday morning to add funds as you say it's cheaper. I think coin base give £5 bonus on first top up so this should compensate for the high fees
Hmm 31 quid fees on a 17 quid order 😳😳
Am never paying that not as long as ive got a hole in my arse 😤
Am never paying that not as long as ive got a hole in my arse 😤
4 or 5 days ago it went down to about £5 late at night on CB so I managed to send some to my wallet.. tried more today and its £14, that's the highest I've ever seen it lol
You are better off adding cash and then using advance trade to buy. It’s £14 network fee to send at the moment it’s a joke
Am I right in believing LB don't accept LTC? Cos many other sellers onother websites state they can take litecoin as BTC fees are high at moment
Yeah it’s BTC only here and nobody can understand why they won’t add a cheaper faster alternative option
I only Dave debit card option to add money to coinbase, IV added £50 as a tester and they charged a £2 fee. Now when I want to send the BTC to coinbase wallet they are charging £14 fee. I also have a exodus wallet which tops up from whichever exchange that is giving the best rate (£9 fees) I'm abit confused. I'm wanting to buy a Oz which is 221dollars. Do I transfer from coinbase to exodus wallet and pay the £14 coinbase fee, do I pay the same fee again when sending from.exodus wallet to vendor. Or is it best to send from coinbase exchange to my coinbase wallet? What are people doing at the moment with fees being sold high
That's the transaction fee that's allways the same, we talking about the network fee here that you pay when transferring to wallet

This is pretty cool, funds are pooled together and protected by a smart contract on the blockchain. Interest on the funds is used to fund a no-loss lottery. So instead of piddly interest your funds earn chances on the lottery. Everything is transparent and hard coded for legitimacy.

human brain
what is happening brainwise when you are trying to remember something?
started topic
So when you’re creating a memory, the new information goes from the cortex (the part of the brain rich in nerve cells) to the hippocampus (this is a kind of switching point for memories in the brain)
The information goes in the opposite direction when we access a memory.
The subject is called biological basis of behaviour. Get high and do a deep dive on google, it’s interesting as fuck.

Check out the work by stuart hammerhof and Roger Penrose, very interesting. Some have tried to discredit it as woo woo - except hammerhof is a top anaesthetist and Penrose is one of the smartest physicists alive.
Your brain can re-fire old neural patterns, and it is the combination of areas of your brain being lit up that drive our thoughts. See article - https://neurosciencenews.com/memory-science-22803/
Think of your brain like a computer hard-drive. Some sections are very heavily 'write protected' as they save critical information. For example, knowing how to breathe. These are patterns your brain needs to always reliably refire off, no matter what, so they get saved in specific 'non-plastic' areas.
On the other hand, some parts are more akin to RAM memory and are prone to being overwritten. For example, you are out of milk and should get some more, or where you left your car keys. Annoying as these things are, it is good to keep some brain 'plasticity' as this helps you with stuff like creativity and reasoning. Children have a metric fuck-ton of this stuff, which is v. important for learning and adapting to the world.
With enough repetition, your brain gets better at recreating a certain pattern - or forming a memory or an idea. Sometimes, you will be better at remembering something because a certain brain area was provoked, such as pain. If a lion mauled your arm off, it would really fucking hurt and make you instantly fearful of big cats. On the other hand, if I gave you a veerrrryyy boring 2 hour lecture on the dangers of lions instead? You would be fine with a trip to the kitty exhibit at the local zoo, simply because I left a very weak 'print' on your mind.

Our Interpretation of the Wonderwall
Darlings: our wonderful wall has a mind of it's own, though we each influence this mind with our words and deeds here.
The wall measures novelty, popularity, positivity and most of all integrity. It does this based on experience and gets smarter every day.
We understand the tea leaf reading can be difficult, especially for noobs, but there are a few things that we have come to lean:
1 stay online and be responsive
2 voting and posting patterns betray lots of naughty behavior, this makes things very easy for the algorithms
3 nastiness always winds up hurting you, even when you are right
4 if you remind the algo of a previous dodgy person you have an uphill battle
Data from your payment processor, over posting, over messaging, and more seem to go into it as well. Whatever it is though dears you'll always hear the same thing from us, be patient,
And by all means please do understand that Borgs can not control the wall.

Very interesting.
You obviously need to be a positive member, treat other members as you want to be treated yourself. It constantly learns from your input. What an amazing use of algorithms and no-one has complete control. That's my interpretation.

Yes you charming bloke it's love that feeds on hate. What we are trying to do here is let people understand it better.
scammers are very often hard coded for touchiness (usually they feel deeply cheated in childhood).
touchy discussions are a great way for an algorithm to round up the usual subjects.
touchy discussions are a great way for an algorithm to round up the usual subjects.
Just respect and no bullying with true freedom of speech and no one ganging up on people just for posting simple questions or opinions ! not rocket science is it? :)
We would feel we live by those 4 rules but lately we are being pushed out by the algorithm if anything has changed recently can we change it back please, We conduct business as usual but our topics our basically invisible and our new items don't show on the wall our old items are in a freefall we always try to stay positive and have patience but we have seen zero rotation in the items wall all week whereas usually it would change only a daily basis making things fair for all and our topics seem to be invisible, why hide the Canadian we are the life of the party :)
We should also add a very important point: we see the behaviour trends but what comes out of fraud detection is a borg of a different colour.
We can't see this kind of thing anymore than you can and it has far greater influence on the wall than any other factor.

Hi, I appreciate the info.. when you say a Borg of different colour, what does that mean?
each borg has a very limited job, fraud belongs to a non public-facing borg that appears extremely automated.
I have been solicited to join as a vendor to a site called little biggie.org. Came from an anonymous message in my lb inbox.
I know this is scam spam, but disturbs me nonetheless.

I see “The Wall” like online matchmaking and ranking systems.
firstly the bad actors work out how it works (hence most devs never fully explain it) but these bad folk work it out anyway.
Then they abuse the shit out of it.
Devs are then in arms race to “outsmart” via changes and updates.
They work it out again and the cycle continues…
This is why very often it results in questionable behaviour, in this case our wall order and things can get messy.
Unfortunately the small % of bad actors FUCK it for the rest of us.
Also, borgs I really hope that “Cali” string flag is in a combination of other stuff , cos otherwise it’s dog shit and you hurt even folk like me as I’ve come to use “Cali dense” as a term to help people know their bud density

Cheers that clears a few things up and makes for interesting reading.
Still a mystery but to a certain extent what makes it bad can make you stumble on some interesting items but if I’m honest most of the best stuff I’ve purchased has been down to scrolling though the comments.

New to selling on LB and discovering more to this site everyday. Only just read this topic and it's very fascinating to say the least. At first I thought my account had some technical issues but I've now come to realise the wall hasn't approved of us yet. I wonder if this is the same reason our store doesn't have the images I uploaded when creating the listings?

Best Rap Show You've Ever Been To?
that's a great question
Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg - Snoop UK live debut.
Crowd was bananas, show was over sold, security got rushed multiple times, police abandoned the area, chaos for hours, fights inside the venue everywhere, open weed and crack smoking, coke sniffing, displays of weaponry, dudes getting properly jacked up for their whole shit right in the crowd inside and outside...I got robbed at knifepoint myself...lost a few quid, kept all my blood lol...
Venue was Brixton Academy, about 90/91 I reckon, whatever year it was that 'The Mirror' put Snoops picture on the front page and called him an evil bastard in the headline lol....think it was to do with him being on bail for murder at the time...
Dre and Snoop opened with 'Deep Cover' in pretty much pitch black....crowd went fucking super nuts...no word of a lie, in the first minute and a half of that song about another half dozen serious fights broke out all over the place, people running through swinging shit like woah....fucking mad shit, dre and snoop only stayed on about 45 minutes as the whole shit was out of control so they pretty much fled...crowd went even fucking nuttier...
Took fucking hours to get out of Brixton, full on road block grid lock chaos madness...
But. That 45 minutes they were on stage was honestly one of the most electrifying things I have ever seen...Dre was already a seasoned performer and Snoop was still a kid and was completely fucking amped up and rocking this huge afro that made him look kind of crazy and he was completely into stoking the fuck out of the crowd which didn't help the situation lol....
I been to a lot of hip hop shows over the years but this was on some other fucking level of mad...
Notable mentions go to KRS One, Cypress Hill and Public Enemy - seen all of them multiple times and they are some of the best live performers around, their shows never disappoint and they know how to move the crowd...

man thanks so much for sharing, I only wish I could have experienced this. I no doubt would have been robbed but alas happy... xD
Dude, I shit a brick lol....yeah...I heard a song years later by Troy Scalpels, call 'It happened' and it's his story of a night out at hip hop club gone wrong and it's got this line;
'I wish I wasn't here, but the hop hop led me, the snare drum fed me, now I'm tripping, on upturned furniture'
...lol...everytime I hear it I think of that night...get the cold chill down the back... oooooh....

Has anybody seen ALL of the Wu in one place? I saw them in 2003 and it was only RZA and GZA plus a load of ransoms (and that UK guy they said was part of WTC)
Lol...I had three fucking goes at the Wu and still not seen all of them!...still never seen Inspectah Deck...the most under-rated of team but actually a killer mc...
Yes!!! Really is isn't he! Always loved Meth but have to admit Inspectah Deck is the most natural lyricist of them all
Yo this threads my jam. Who's sparking the blunt!?
My most notable concert. Rock the bells NYC can't remember what year. maybe 2016
Nas headling. DJ Premier and Pete Rock had a live beat battle. Cypress Hill on beforehand fucking smashed it, Mos Def and Talib Kwali are Blakstar before that.. Wu - Tang stage, got to see all the members apart from ODB. Mobb Deep were on their stage too. Lauren Hill played and brought out Pras and Wyclef to do some Fugees tracks. Can't remember who else but there were more.

Daaammmnnn.....would love to have seen a Rock The Bells...they do quite a few of those full on 'mega tours' in the States...The 'Up In Smoke' tour would have been fucking awesome to see... Nas is one I never caught and would love too, Mobb Deep too...that must have been an awesome experience man.
Ha, the Fugees! Man they rock a live show. I actually saw the Fugees before they were big, they were actually playing as support for Das Efx lol!!! And first support at that, at like 9pm, real early, think it was K-Solo and Redman as 2nd support before Das on that one.
Yeah...it was at Subterania in West London, was funny actually....place is all hip hopped out, all carhart hoodies, tims and oversized jeans and bad attitudes lol then the fucking Fugees rock on to the stage and broke out the instruments and you can literally hear the 'what the fucks' all over lol...but shit....they started with Temple and it banged the fuck out the place...
Was very cool being such a small venue, at one point Lauren Hill was literally 4ft from my face on stage when she did that tune with the chorus 'some forget harlem' (I forget the name, very cool song) and I could actually hear her singing straight out her mouth kind of thing, (If that makes sense!?.. But like I could hear it before it hit the mic sort of thing..) and damn...raw, raw talent and soul and well....stunning woman visually you know...fried my weeded brain at the time, I was just like dazed out for 5 minutes, like ahhhhh, damn....lol...Saw her again at a sold out Wembley arena 10 years later...couldn't barely even see her on stage from my pauper seats lol...watched the whole thing on the side monitors...not the same...fuck the fame lol...

Even my ex was happy as Beyoncé also made an appearance.

Was my first proper Hip-hop gig
However...
Glastonbury the same year (I think). Jurassic 5, The Roots, Everlast and Cypress Hill (pre-beef), Scratchperverts, DOOM, Slum Village, Black Twang (with Rodney P, Skinnyman and some of Mudfam), and I've a vague recollection of seeing either Cash Money or Prodigy but can't be certain.
One hell of a weekend for Hip-hop!!

Went to see Cypress Hill at Barrowlands Glasgow last year and it was immense! Two of my favourite tapes ever Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill and Black Sunday!
Also last year went to the Blastoff Tour Gig which was great fun although a bit commercial with the likes of Shaggy (who was shit haha)
Nelly, Salt N Pepa (They were soo good man! lol), Shaggy, Mya and Blu Cantrell.
Hosted by Fatman Scoop and included exclusive appearances from UK garage stars So Solid members Lisa Maffia and MC Romeo, scene pioneer MC DT and the British duos Oxide & Neutrino, DJ Luck & MC Neat and Sweet Female Attitude.
The best rap show I never made was Tribe Called Quest ?

Public Enemy at Homelands Festival. It was a greatest hits set and Chuck D killed it.
I've also seen the Wu Tang Clan three times, but not once have I ever seen the full line up.

Only ever been to one, and it wasn't strictly rap. Ice T and his metal group, Body Count, at the Octagon in Sheffield. Must have been around '94 - '95. Loads of white middle-class students going mental to the anti-establishment sentiments of a black dude from LA. It was a good night.
DJ Premier - I've seen him in many cities across the world but the show he made in Paris in 2010 right after Guru's death was legendary. He arrived late but we didn't leave the venue before 4am after screaming "Fuck Solar" for hours. Primo is really a legend
Rock the Bells in Amsterdam, think it was 2009 or 10. What a line-up De La Soul, Pharcyde, Nas, EPMD. Incredible show!
This is very hard.... but Skepta in Dublin 1 year ago... man Shutdown the place. A close second is Joey Badass in Dublin 3 years ago at the Olympia Theatre.... never forget he told this small blonde girl that things were about to get heavy.. so move to the back... she didn't... she got crushed..had to be carried out. Good Times, good times.
Insane Clown Posse put on a crazy show. Tech n9nes first show in London was crazy but I'd say Flatbush Zombies at the Ritznin Manny. Ever felt that floor bounce like that
Went to see snoop in Manchester years ago and cypress hill was the surprise opening act was amazing, snoop flicked his blunt into the crowd n that thing got attacked people fighting to get it🤣🤣😮💨😮💨🔥

does evolution hate rich people?
rich people reproduce less, so consistently that the richest countries have the slowest population growth. poor people have children much younger and more frequently, their countries are the most successful at reproduction.
the economic reasons are pretty well explored but that doesnt explain the evolutionary science. it seems to represent a conflict between human society and genetic reproduction.

Those with real wealth have large families.
The struggling middle classes awash with debt and both parents working full time jobs to give them that slightly nicer existence than those on benefits are the ones struggling to reproduce.
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer and the squeezed middle class evaporate.

It's a different evolutionary strategy - fewer children with greater chances. It's a continuation in the general trend that hominids have been on for the past several hundred thousand years - generally Humans have small "litters" that they invest more effort into than other mammals. The same as other great apes. Compare that to a dog or a cat..
Interestingly, in experiments with flies, if you delay their reproductive cycle, they have fewer infants that are longer lived...

It's interesting that you include a photo of BJ in this topic because both he and his father are absolutely in favour of decreasing the population. Stanley Johnson has written tonnes of books about it - fiction and non-fiction. One of his books was even about a 'deadly virus' that decimates the population. It's not presience, it's planning. Both Johnsons are admirers of Indira Gandhi who force-sterilisied millions of indians. Here's an interesting article written by BoJo in the mid-noughties, from his own website:

Not sure, but all I know is that evolution is producing more poor people now and our technology is having diminishing returns from all that we invest in it. The daily wake up rush rush rush to the city, bigger this better that. More money , more power. The cycle of American western society. Drone like lower middle classes buying products continuously to pay the share holders of large corporations their dividends and profits. Then we are fed advertising 24/7 and one sided news channels/papers/social media that fits corporate agendas and profit…… that are owned by these exact people…….it’s a cycle that never ends.
poverty is very consistently decreasing

https://blogs.worldbank.org/opendata/april-2022-global-poverty-update-world-bank
I'd argue that that was culture rather than evolution. But you could also argue that the two are inextricably linked.
The metrics for wealth are skewed in favour of consumerism. The UK has a lot of wealth generation tied up in housing instead of things like having a 401k. This leads to a large chunk of the population not wanting cheaper houses as it will negatively affect things like their retirement.
So people can afford things like TV's etc. but cannot afford housing and electricity in winter. People are told they are richer compared to the previous generation, but the quality of life can be much lower if they have kids. If you really want to know what it is like for the 'rich people' go to MumsNet where people can afford multiple children going to St Paul's where each of their kids costs 10,000 a term, and they speak about it like pocket change.
All wealth is generated from conversion, we like to use the term creation as that doesn't have the negative connotations that conversion has. In a conversion, there was something, and now there is something else. What was there is likely no longer there forever with the shit rolling down hill to people we are never aware of. Coltan and Sony's 'Playstation war' is a good example of the bollocks we help create.
It may seem I am anti-capilist, I am not, I just view it as lizard brained. It is not an invisible hand of the market, it is an invisible claw of the market. The use of hand is an anthropomorphism. The market has no conscience. It just consumes. Including consuming you and your children.
Personally, I think the spread of knowledge is more important than the continuance of genetics. You need enough people alive to keep forward momentum. We are also more aware of the fuckery people do in our name due to our internet. Historically we could do shit like manifest destiny as people could be convinced they were more deserving.
Unless we solve the issue of the universe will suffer a heat death, there is going to be a last generation some time. There needs to be people to perceive western culture for it to have any value. Western culture is not really dieing, in London at least within 1 generation the kids are usually acclimatized. London is a range of attitudes, the UK is a range of attitudes.
Poor countries have lots of kids as it increases the chances of future wealth. For example, help for free in a family business. Happiness is something that maybe a later generation is allowed.
As I say available better education is the key for all children, even though some people think giving girls worse education will solve the breeding problem. More badly educated people, more meat puppets to extract wealth from. When shit goes sideways make sure you have enough wealth to bolt somewhere. Lizard brain.
Animals are driven mostly by genetic continuance, we can do better.

Rux Reviews - The Sin
how is this a review?
Rux Reviews - The Sin
Having never ordered from Druids Magic previously I had no idea that you had to wait until dates were posted on their page for drops of any grow, and the strains.
Someone posted on a thread on here that custom orders were being taken. But, I couldn't find Druids Magic to message them! With the wonder of Google and searching for 'Druids Magic littlebiggy' I found them and messaged them to ask if I could buy, and that I liked getting really stoned and also ideally pretty high too, so did anything fit the bill. Oracle Octane and The Sin were recommended, so I went for 1/4 of each. What turned up was way, way over that, and I thank you for your generosity as it's very much appreciated. Looking at reviews on the page it seems like this generosity is fairly standard.
Anyway, if you're still reading, on to the buds! They smell amazing (no one thing stands out to me), are firm and well trimmed and cured, and grind easily and smell like pine and citrus (like a fancy bathroom spray, maybe?) very strongly when ground.
Very tasty smoke and I'm not sure why I chose it as a 20:30 smoke considering it's supposed to be the more Sativa dominant of the 2 strains. I'm glad I did though. My mate rang me while I was smoking and I found myself much more excitedly explaining things when we were talking and realised it was due to getting really high from the joint. The strange thing is how strongly stoned I also was (and still am), and after the phone call I'm now watching TV and it's like someone is slowly pressing the sides of my head strongly, and I'm still both very strongly stoned and high, and it doesn't seem to be plateauing yet. No body effects though as I'm not couch locked in any way.
Wow. Brilliant stuff. So well grown, such a wonderful effect, and absolutely delightful people to deal with (who hopefully never change the scales they use to weigh our deals).
Quickly, buy more! Oh, you can't, you weren't cheeky enough to send a PM asking for a custom. Sort that out for next time, as I nearly missed out too!

Well, I thought about what to write, then I wrote it, then checked it for errors, then posted it. That's how this is a review.
Nice that you chose this as one of 67 comments made in 6 years. Had a couple of these statistical anomalies recently from different accounts.

As Web Content Creator How Should I Use This?
this is a good idea ive linked to questions about concentrate here, posting mostly on d1scord and reddit and it's performed nicely
As Web Content Creator How Should I Use This?
You can monetize any kind of content by posting it here on little biggy, just link to it whenever you publish.
Yes, obviously you can share any topic but I think you're concerned about items. I share items all the time on FB and insta with posts like "looks like cannabis is becoming a normal thing" or "it must be nice to have bitcoin" etc. As long as you contextualize it it is very valid content, I once saw a link on the front age of reddit.
Yes, I've done well with it, pretty much like other people are saying, I just link to strange posts and people do wind up registering afterwards.
I would write about making edible recipes and how 2 make concentrates like BHO. This is fair game to re-post anywhere.
this is a good idea ive linked to questions about concentrate here, posting mostly on d1scord and reddit and it's performed nicely
"picking the perfect strain" this is something we all need here and it very interesting anywhere there are partakers. everyone you bring in will buy. you make money on every purchase.
just go to a subreddit like uk trees and share a link to a general post here about cannabis. when the person arrives they are going to find items they like, register and make you coin.
posting a direct sales pitch will cause trouble, posting a link to any other discussion works. your reference code embeds to any content here and stays with the visitor youve introduced until they purchase.
I didnt post anything at all regarding sales/LB. I was in conversation with someone about a strain and i was banned out of the blue. Apparently, I was banned for having a link in my reddit bio...which is for my blog...which has LB reviews on it -.-

Twenty-four feet tall and three feet wide, these giant spires dotted the ancient landscape!
Yeah there is this type of mushroom they called a medow maker as it would kill all the trees in any given area by taking over there food supply/ attacking the roots. Crazy shit
I love this, thanks for the share mate, nice little escape.
So the bell-ends running the World are just the latest in a long line of giant mushrooms dominating the landscape.

Top Vendor For Sale
Is it just the account or does it include a supply line or any other assets or operational support?
Top Vendor For Sale
We represent a top vendor on here with over 1000 sales and a large and loyal following on here. This is a sale due to ill health and serious enquiries are invited from Biggas with at least 50 sales/25 buys. See listing for further details
Is it just the account or does it include a supply line or any other assets or operational support?
tHE SALE INCLUDES the name, the accounts (on LB and DW) AND THE SUPPLY CONTACTS/INTROS, PLUS THE cashing out infrastructure. the numbers (sales/costs/profit) for the year to date are available to serious enquirers. Huge scope for growth
Well what's the vendors name you are selling? Is this allowed on LB. Question time with Polly
Good point really. I think buying an established vendor account of here goes against the trust basis that LB is built on. It only takes one bad one to land up with it.
Think about it there is absolutely no way to stop a seller from selling their account, its probably happened many times before. A legit process can only help.

{Economics}
How can people deal with natural monopolies?
I understand here are situations where there is only room for 1 provider of something like when the investment is huge and there isn’t enough biz for more competitors. Fair enough but if this is a fact of life is their any way best to prevent an evil monopolist that will gouge prices and offer lousy service?
Innovation is always the best answer for this shit; a technology that makes it possible to compete without a huge investment will end the monopoly. Then low and behold the old guys won’t be sucking your blood anymore they will be alive and competing!
Waiting for the White Knight like this is great for the long run but it doesn’t change what everyone has to face right now.
There's an old solution for monopoly suppliers, Cooperatives. If a monopoly is owned by its users then the whole conflict between greed and utility just disappears. Cooperatives been around for farming since before my grandfather’s time I don’t know exactly how long but they were used to buy big tools and grain elevators that every farmer could share.
I buy my groceries from a co-op, much, much better products than the chain supermarket and good prices.
Yes if you organise you get some of the power of the cooperative just by virtue of having done it. I would think this is the best solution, to actually start the cooperative and keep an open ear to the monopolist, seeing if things can be settled at the earliest possible stage.
If the users organize a boycott it can force the monopolist into better behavior. Though it can be kind of ugly and tends to leave a bitter taste for both sides. A theatrical action before this could be a petition or media generation on social networks.

When It’s Too Late To Stop Fascism
Before his suicide Austrian writer Stefan Zweig reflected on Hitler's rise. The New Yorker's George Prochnik compares it to the current US situation.
If fascism does come, it will ride in on the wings of "anti-fascist" socialist, who use racism, bigotry, and violence as thier vehicle.
The best way to stop it is to simply check out. There are more alternatives to corporate partipation than ever before.
Hopefully the US Judiciary will clip the wings of the Trump Circus! The media is losing patience with that crew as well.

no idea he just said don't do tracking bro n i havn't had a message back off him yet when i asked who he was using or what NDD was if i don't get a number..... feels kinda shady
yea i paid for NDD and his reviews seem tight , just me beeing nervous i guess only my second buy on hear
With the tracking number you can redirect the parcel. If someone wanted to be malicious, after the vendor posts the parcel the buyer could redirect it to say 10 downing Street if they wanted to, putting the vendor at risk.
From a vendor point of view - NDD delivery means Next day tracked and if its special delivery, guaranteed for 1pm the next day (during Mon-Thurs and then Friday is guaranteed for Monday 1pm) - they should really provide you with a tracking number

Favourite fictional character to watched baked
For me, the first that springs to mind is Jim from Friday Night Dinner. If you know, you know.
Eric cartman for me.
Especially the episode when he pretends to have Tourette syndrome, can’t stop the giggles to that when baked.

When I read that I thought it said ‘Favourite fictional character to watch Naked’ (😲) and I was going to ask if cartoon characters count?! 😉😂
I’d say 50-50. Part character part real life 🤣😂
Not watched Curb Your Enthusiasm in ages!!! Might have to stick some on tonight 👍👍

First time I heard Miles Davis on sketches of Spain i could feel the sun and smell the olive trees, Rare a record truly transports you so effectively.
Very good call... got to add grand wazoo and Joe's garage to the list. The keyboard solo on cyborg is genius
Shit yeah! Moon Safari was great when it landed in the late 90's and still sounds every bit as fresh today. I'm also partial to a bit of Junip, a Swedish folk rock band.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
It’s a great Tolkien Album!
It’s a great Tolkien Album!
Takes me back to the early 90's......that and Moon Safari by Air stand out for me. I listened to Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld by the Orb a lot back then too. I still roll this one out - another great toking album.
My guitar teacher switched me on to these guys way back. Nowadays, I appreciate this much more than I did then!
Lucky enough to see Ozrics at several free festivals in late eighties and nineties, once so caned on micro dots I thought I was watching floyd from the meddle era.
Great band , nice guys.
In similar vein try the ;porcupine tree’

My go to is Pink Floyd ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’, followed by Dave Matthews ‘Before These Crowded Streets’ or ‘Under the Table and Dreaming’ and First Aid Kit ‘Ruins’
Its a personal choice and each to their own taste however if there is a list of great albums to listen to when stoned then Fleetwood Mac - Rumours has to be on it.If you have never heard it then you are missing out on one of the greatest albums ever made.
Rumours takes on a totally new life when stoned. I wish I had the songwriting gene!
+1 for Rumours - there is a great documentary about the making of it...well, about the whole band, how they formed etc. They were basically hating each other when that album was made (which is obvious when you listen to the lyrics). Have a look for it on the iPlayer - well worth a look
can't beat a bit of BOC
Saw Phaeleh at Kendal Calling 10 years ago and he played this album in full. Been in love with it ever since. My go to.
This is a bad boy for chilling to, and the artist not very well known so give it a whirl.
K&D Sessions and DJ Kicks albums are legendary!

Waiwan is my favourite ‘unknown’ artist - really low key releases that are mind blowing. Got a couple of his remixes on vinyl will try and find them and upload here!
You have great taste sir!
You have great taste sir!
Discovered Double Negative by Low last year and have listened to it whilst toking many times now. Went straight into my stoner music list... Sounds awesome on vinyl..
Thanks for that tip…I keep defaulting to ‘Things We Lost In The Fire’ but will play this today after a good toke on Smoggy’s Mimosa! 🤤🤗
From avenged sevenfold through to chopin and everything in between. This is really awesome to listen to. If you want a nice hour musical journey one of the best albums I could listen to from start to finish is Smashing Pumpkins, Siamese Dream, and it's not traditionally my fav music. Or anything Led Zep.
Great album alright,recently rediscovering how good the klf-chill out album is,well worth a listen,albeit a little less electronic but ye,cant go wrong with the k&d sessions either!
Haven't listened to the K&D sessions for ages! Well thats my morning soundtrack sorted.
Strange Cargo 3 by William Orbit is good toking album.
Strange Cargo 3 by William Orbit is good toking album.
Or as we used to call it....the ultimate album come down album! Not that this happens anymore, but...put this on as the last album of the night/morning after a night of raving and loads of mdma! Perfect!! Thanks for reminding me of this, been about 15 years since I listened to this beast!
You know it - that's how I first discovered it too. And yeah, It's been waaaayyyyy too long since I had one of those nights. As soon as the world gets back to normal I'm going to recreate 'the old days' :-)
Any, post Syd, Floyd for me- as long as it’s an album start to finish, for the full experience
Yeah, you need the full experience. Imagine a single from Dark side or animals. Even worse, wish you were here. Damn pesky kids don’t know what a single is. Bah humbug.
Nightmares on Wax, Smokers Delight.

"We're Only In It For The Money" the Mothers Of Invention, released 1968. Works well on acid too.
Speaking as an old hippy back in the day it had to be "We're Only in it For The Money" from Zappa and the Mothers. Really fucked with your head.
In the last few months I’ve discovered Ben Böhmer. I find his music and mixes to be superb listens while high. Mainly upbeat tempos contrasted with deep bass and uplifting beats. Give it a try ???

Unless I missed it, how has no one mentioned Dark Side of the Moon?!
It's possibly the only album that can get you high with no supply!

Not an album as such, but I absolutely love uplifting and mellow jazz beats such as this when high...

Just watched 10 minutes of that - awesome! I'm an amateur music producer and love tweaking the knobs and dials so I will be watching this in full over the weekend - thanks for sharing
I'll throw this in... A bit obscure... Gets the old red eyes pumping and gets a nice on the go, too.
lol use to flat out play this. tried to listen again recently though and I feel it hasn't aged well. the beats aren't great!
It's all relative I guess eh! I still love it personally and feel it holds up well after 22 years....but Jesus, reminds me how old I am!

lsd vs mushrooms?

lsd vs mushrooms?
so i've always loved mushrooms but never really got hold of any acid. before i begin my journey i'd like to hear about the differences i can expect if some of you societals can help a lad out?
Acid is much easier on your gastrointestinal tract. Which also reduces the chance of a bad trip for me anyway;)
I've not had acid for years but I used to prefer it to mushrooms. I would say that there's not a massive difference in the effects but I found acid to be more a stable trip overall; mushrooms seemed less predictable, so one minute I'd have the giggles but the next I could be feeling sick or anxious.
I never had a bad time with acid and it was usually a more consistent experience. The only drawback is that it's more difficult to manage the dosage but you'll at least have fun experimenting. 😂

well said OldMan - set and setting is so important for all. Mushrooms are defo shorter and more unpredictable as you say. With LSD when you get it from the right source and know each drop is on average 125mg - you can go for a deep 8-12 hour journey or micro-dose on a 1 on / 1 off protocol and have fun with creativeness and problem solving - all fun 😂
Acid was always described to me as hd shrooms. Ive only dabbled in one tab at a time and its been lovely. I prefer it to shrooms cos i dont feel sick for 90 mins...what the others said is true
Hi 1313
I took maybe a dozen tabs in my entire life.
Mushrooms on the other hand I have been taking for 35+ years.
Be extremely careful with LSD: first dosage is a major issue.
Second - and most importantly - LSD being a synthetic drug you'll have a hard time telling what is on the tab unless you're a chemist.
I personally have found LSD experiences to vary tremendously - from overwhelming to underwhelming compared to high shroom doses - whereas mushrooms are fairly predictable once you have a handle on dosage for a known strain (and you respect the basic rules about setting and so on).
If you go for LSD buy from a trustworthy and reliable source. If you do not know the dosage for a given tab then cut a little bit and try that to see how potent the tab is.
Also the quality of the LSD can vary and sometimes you'll get tabs with something which is not LSD.
Worth reading the following page for good advice:

I took an awful lot of acid before I could get into nightclubs, most weekends for a couple of years. I agree with the idea that LSD = Digital Mushrooms = Analogue.
I always found LSD to give a direct, stable, predictable trip with large scale hallucinations strongly influenced by music. Less emotional in good company, maybe had one bad trip in 100+.
Mushrooms I find to be comparatively unpredictable, introspective, emotional, visuals appear less reliably but with a big dose the experience more deeply immersive for good or bad. Psychological effects can last much longer than the actual trip.
Also agree with the stomach upset problem and mushrooms. It can be minimised by starting the psilocybin breakdown in advance with lemon tek or the alcohol max out method, and practice.
I find people who are looking for LSD and only find mushrooms should probably keep looking, the two are not the same.
Just my opinion.

i think digital for acid holds but that means kinda square and pixely too. mushrooms feel like they have softer edges
Totally agree - we don't feel they are the same experience at all. I've found no stomach upsets with LSD unlike mushrooms - that's not to say all shroom trips have been all been with stomach issues! With stronger doses you sometimes experience nausea in the first our but that quickly passes.
If you want to journey with either mushrooms or LSD - you should defo source the psychedelic you are drawn too.
Happy journeying

Not had LSD for many, many years (cannot get it), but have to say I always loved the experience. Shrooms.... not so much; I tried shrooms a couple of times back in the LSD days and the nausea was awful.... but I put that memory aside and grew about 600g during lockdown... I still have around 500g left because I just cannot stomach them. I did find the best way to take them was steeping them in a cafetiere in hot chocolate milk and that helped... but still not for me. LSD is a much 'cleaner', more enjoyable and less nauseating high.
Just ordered a first dose of shrooms having only experienced 2cb and mdma psychedelics really looking forward to it haha. Cheapest I found on little biggy https://littlebiggy.org/link/pLFsdu

This has been resolved by the vendor, I belive it was a genuine mistake. To give them credit, they sorted it all out. Lovely hash in all fairness
The stress comes from waiting for more hash....I have ordered from a reliable source today, roll on Friday
Oct 2022 and I'm in the same boat. Been 9 days, he's not responding. I had stopped using budboyz earlier this year because of the poor comms but thought I'd give them another shot. First order landed no bother, next two have yet to arrive. Last message I got was 4 days ago on Sunday saying that RM has been a nightmare, funny that I ordered from a different vendor on Monday, offering the same tracked delivery and it arrived the next day on Tuesday.

Hey biggas hope you're all having a nice high weekend, i'm not, thanks to royal mail strikes!
anyway just wanted to bring this up for probably the 10th time this year, we NEED the site to switch from the use of dollars to the obviously more sensible option of british pounds, the conversion rate right now is so fucked and it's costing vendors lots of money and costing buyers shitloads of money having to deal with this!
EVERY SINGLE DOLLAR NOW COSTS YOU 10P MORE THAN IT DID MERELY A FEW WEEKS AGO, LET THAT SINK IN FOR A MOMENT!
it's making every single order a decent amount more expensive and it's all adding up very fucking quickly, not to mention the price of everything everywhere going up, and all this for what? surely it's literally the click of a button to change the sites currency from stupid $ to £... what are we waiting for seriously? and why does it constantly have to be bought up for nothing to ever be done about it? it's leaving a really shit taste in my mouth after every order knowing i'm being bent over by extra costs out of our control that could be solved at the click of a button for an LB admin months and months ago... what is going on....

If things keep going at this rate it will be $1:£1 before the end of the year, which seems absolutely insane but it's probably going to get even worse than that...
Anyway please borgs make the change, you know it makes sense <3

honestly within the context of this site and without trying to gaslight any biggas, this is probably one of, if not the most important subject / topic of discussion we could possibly be having right now, please do not let this slide this time biggas
we need as much attention and votes drawn to this as possible, this affects every single one of the sites users with every single order, this needs to sorted with the utmost of urgency, the damage has already been done for months now and it only gets worse with every single order

Sadly I don't think a lot on here realise how much both vendors and customers are being shafted by the conversion.
I think we need *every* currency here and as a European changing to £ would suck worse. at least the $ is a standard for the world if you are only going to have 1.
we don't need every, and we dont need another brexit axis either. we just need major currencies and btc and let the users choose.
Good point well made, I think with the general instability of the world economy LB need to ensure the site remains economically viable, peeps are skint or more skint than usual and it is going to get worse. Thank you Hesh for taking the time to Spearhead this, it’s is indeed of benefit to all users, get behind this biggas before the algos sink the subject again
Thanks for helping keep this topic visible Emz, and also adding your take on it which i couldn't agree with more! things are getting worse VERY quickly and we can't just sit around doing nothing

Man every single order is over 10% more expensive than it was a couple weeks ago, it's so bad i was not happy making an order earlier knowing i'm overpaying for no reason
it's not just the 10% either it's having to buy even more BTC to cover the extra cost meaning more fees for buying the BTC etc etc...

Is anyone able to explain to me why vendors are losing money by having the site set in $? I totally understand how it costs more for buyers, but surely vendors are making more ££ profit if they don't adjust $$ prices downwards periodically? Is it to do with vendor fees being in $ too?

Thanks for bringing further attention to this topic, I appreciate it!
my understanding was, in the case of vendors, the overall price of orders is unnecessarily higher than it needs to be (because of the exchange rate) which will lead to a loss in sales during a time where sales are likely to be down already due to the current economy, just another lose lose situation
just a quick tidbit, but transaxe, LB's payment processor, works in BTC not £ or $, and the fees are a fixed percentage, so i cannot see a reason for this change not to be implemented ASAP

Fully agree can't see LB acting though they will just sit back and watch the impending doom.
Also take into account by the years end markets are going to crash, housing, stocks & crypto's which would take the BTC price to around 10k so vendors also have that to look forward to.
Not only did vendors get hit bad at the start of the year and most are still recovering from that tidal wave we now have a perfect storm brewing and what do we do?? We keep on lowering our prices!!
This is a huge car crash just waiting to happen!!
The only way is to either put your prices up to give yourself a buffer which would mean losing biz or all vendors go on strike till it's sorted which won't happen either.
Otherwise, vendors will be crying in their coco pops after the crash realizing they have been wiped out!

I managed to get stocked up well with one of RealD's promos at the end of June, so I've been pretty well insulated from the exchange rate shenanigans the last couple of months. Now it's time to start looking for a top up and I'm feeling it...
I can't say that it's going to stop me from buying from any vendor on here, mostly due to convenience (its a fecking nightmare finding a dealer irl when your body is fucked and you don't particularly like dealing with people in person), but if the actual dollar prices on here start to rise alongside the exchange rate tanking and all the fees that come with using bitcoin, on my budget, it would definitely force a rethink.
So yeah, I agree with the suggested change and will follow/bump your thread, in hope more than expectation.

dollars is just a denomination, anyway you slice it the sellers will need to explicitly lower their prices if buyers are going to realise any gain here.
it's not just a denomination, prices on here are incredibly rarely / not at all adjusted to the constantly changing exchange rate of dollars to pounds, leading to inherent and frankly unnecessary instability for everyone along with the added instability of bitcoin, it's a lose lose situation, since the vast majority of the buyers on here will have £'s in their bank account, not $'s
a $60 order a month ago was considerably cheaper than a $60 order today for example, and prices haven't changed to account for the devaluing £
there's no need for any of this to happen, which is unanimous at this point, absolutely everyone will gain from this with immediate effect

They definitely do, as we've had changes made before via threads / voting / topics etc
but of course we can't ever seem to actually correspond with the 'admin' so to speak, for obvious security reasons but it's incredibly frustrating!
there's been a LOT of good vendors who have abandoned this place recently due to the total lack of communcation between the vendors and the people who run the site and the glaring issues that still plague the site
there's tens of thousands of £ going through this site on a weekly basis yet it's somehow next to impossible to get even simple changes implemented
I need to make an order right now but it's going to be £15 more expensive than it was a month ago, because we are STILL USING THE WRONG FUCKING CURRENCY
i cannot understand how this issue isn't at the forefront of everyone's mind in the context of this site, this should literally be pinned to the top of the topic wall with hundreds of votes and replies till it's corrected!

Sounds like they need to get on top of it before somebody else dives in and a creates a modern lb type platform with all of the good features and things we wish for here. I can't be too critical of lb though. They are my only platform for buying my medicine. I don't know any real life dealers as I was late to the weed game and none of my friends partake. We all want everything cheaper in life and ultimately somebody usually loses out but this currency change we are after is a win for all three parties involved, vendors, customers and lb devs.
Is that the official Littlebiggy response? Get the vendors to pay the extra on top of the 15% ?
yes a borg pointed out that every seller needs to change their prices for any effect so why not do this now?
Who else thinks the admin have malicious intent with no changing over to £, I mean obviously there must be a reason why when it makes obvious sense for everyone
Apologies if I’m being totally dumb here, does happen a lot, but I don’t understand how the dollar - sterling exchange rate is affecting anything.
My understanding is the dollar price next to items is a guide price only, the real price is the bitcoins and it doesn’t matter if your in the UK or the US the bitcoin price is the cost regardless of what currency you are buying bitcoins in.
Are you buying dollars with sterling then buying bitcoin? Or selling coins for dollars and converting to sterling?
Apologies if I’m missing something obvious here.

Let's use a simplified example..
Vendor uploads new item and wants to sell it for £10.
The exchange rate is £1 = $0.50.
Vendor sets a price of $20.
Pound weakens and now £1 = $1.
This means the vendor has to change the price or the buyer has to pay more for the same thing.
As vendors usually sell more than 1 item and the value of the £ is changing so rapidly, it either costs the vendors lots of time to keep the prices accurate or lots of money in lost sales because people don't buy due to increase in price.
Hope this helps explain things :)

It does somewhat mate thanks
I do keep an eye on the btc prices of items and I see them change quite often as much as 10 times an hour, as the price of btc moves.
Do those vendors have to manually adjust their prices or is there a sql script do it?
Seems sensible to have a scriot that’ll adjust the retail price as coin value moves

Coinbase closed my account.
Hello peoples! :)
I've just been notified that Coinbase is closing my account, I have no clue why and they won't even inform me of the reason. Has this happened to anyone else? I've always been happy with the service/fees etc. so I'm somewhat perplexed to be honest! After speaking to CS on the phone they emailed me this..... What's a good alternative with roughly the same fees and isn't a nightmare to open an account, please?
We regret to inform you that we can no longer support your Coinbase account.
Our primary goal is to make our platform safe and secure for our customers. A variety of factors have been weighed in your case; for security reasons we are unable to elaborate on our internal decision process.
While we can no longer continue our banking relationship, we have not blocked your access to the current balance in your Coinbase account. You may still send your balance offsite to an external address.
Please know that we do not make these decisions lightly and we regret losing you as a customer.

Why the fuck were you using Coinbase for anyways? There’s a tonne of exchanges out there that arn’t the governments bitch and tool for spying, Coinbase is and always has been the anti thesis of crypto currency. Also you should have been buying BTC on there and sending to a wallet like Exodus trust wallet etc and sending to the vendor from there, don’t send directly from the exchange to protect all parties.
Yeah man I feel that, at least now you know, like I say make sure you buy wherever you want but always send to a wallet and send to the seller from that, saves a lot of hassle down the road for everyone.
Afaik Coinbase is working alongside LE to crack down on drug transactions, binance recently suspended a account just because it had $1 million+ in crypto in the account because LE told them to. The future of crypto on brokers isn’t looking good.
Exactly the same thing happened to me and my other half, which we only discovered this morning as we tried putting our usual order in. Frantic scramble to register and get validated by another crypto thingy in time for a postal cut off. I was raging AND fuming. Joined Coinmama and my partner Bittylicious without too much trouble but the tension waiting was unbearable. You can imagine.
Pain in the arse mate, I’ve just gone with Coinjar now but read that Coinbase have the means to check where funds are sent to, but not sure how that’d make a difference! I’ve never done anything shady with my account, pretty strange man.
I use cex.io exchange, registered in the British Virgin Islands, to purchase crypto. They have one of the most secure exchanges, fees are fairly low, and user interface is intuitive. Unfortunately, KYC info required to set up an account. They have a large presence in Europe too. I am in the US, and Coinbase has come under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission for such unsavory business practices. Coinbase is not a very secure platform either. I left btc on their exchange for trading last year, and my account was hacked and subsequently drained, even after I froze my account. Lost 5KUSD. I contacted them 4 times about this, but CB never responded. Finally had to join a class action lawsuit against CB where others had the exact same thing happen to them. Their security and customer service is way below the standards set by cex.io. I receive no affiliate money from my advice; motivated only in protecting buyers from a shady exchange.

Hey LB community. Are here someone who orders to Denmark regularly and can share their experience. Have You had any problems or seized packages?
Most of the established UK sellers serve Denmark reliably. Nero from Spain or if you are willing to wait for quality sayno2drugs from the US are good bets as well.
Let us know how it goes bigga:)

Yeah, Nero is the only one I found so far.
If I am sending from UK, I also need to pay costums handling.
And who knows, maybe stricter checks

I went with Nero, have recieved several orders from him.
And I am happy with his stuff.
But still, would be nice if we had more European vendors.

Flower-Power
I can’t understand how this new vendor has not made it up on the wall yet!
Initially I see them on topics a couple of weeks back and bookmarked them as $10 for 2 gram of flower was a great offer.
I put in an order and was pleasantly surprised by the smoke. In the mean time another strain at that same price was listed. I decided to go back for more🤷🏻♂️😂 Again another nice batch of lovely smoke. Most recently fruit punch, gelato33 popcorn and zkittles hash made an appearance on the menu. Safe to say I’ve now tried everything. I’d recommend to all if you’re looking out for a bargain high. Special mention the hash- its so soft and sticky. You won’t find anything better value on this whole site imo
Thanks Flower Power keep it up💪🏼

was monero born out of a scam?
basically any crypto that cant support smart contracts is dead - or bitcoin.
was monero born out of a scam?
this is a post from the moderator of r/monero in response to a question about monero's creator.
Think XMR is as good as untraceable as of today, is the leading crypto on majority of DMNs and very surprised given how visible LB already is that it's not mandatory or at very least optional here

thank you but damn that shit was long.
a tldr:
in eastern europe it's standard to make drug deliveries via drops in public places.
drop operations continue to evolve with advance inventory placed around the city by gangs.
customers like it because its instant delivery, sellers need to manage several aspects, the most dramatic of which is theft. steal from a drop and it might be a set up from the boss - and you'll be shooting up poison when you get home.
drones are a future challenge for human freedom, they can eliminate borders and enable private delivery with mix nets but government is set to make any drone they can't control illegal. what's left will be corporate and gov drones for surveillance and potentially lethal law enforcement.

buying with btc on g2a?

Huge numbers of those CD keys are the result of credit card theft/fraud. Whilst you can grab yourself a bargain, the developer ends up paying. It is encouraged to use piracy over shadey resellers, even by some developers.
as much as i'd love to stick it to EA i would hate to enable a thief so i looked at this and the site claims the codes are basically greymarket re-distribution. i'm not sure i believe this but i also don't see how they are in business without the tacit consent of Microsoft, Sony and a half dozen others that could crush their ass.
It's also hard to see how there could be a mass scale of game code theft. Unlike credit cards there aren't millions of databases holding your details.
The keys are not stolen. They are paid for with fraudulent means in some cases ( credit card theft, account phishing etc)

China’s Reefer Madness Is Sweeping Up Foreigners
Earlier this month, China Youth Daily—the hipster arm of Beijing’s state media—warned readers about so-called friends who “create a ‘cannabis culture’ that emphasizes hedonism and seeming cool.
When I was living there back in 2010, the police didn’t know what it was. My mate accidentally blew hash smoke in a coppers face and no reaction;)

Thank you for clarifying. I'm not familiar with the rules on this site. I'll change it to the week because tracking and first class usually take a day or two to arrive, so anything after that may be lost in transit, making it easier for me to reship.

Disputing a bad order
first move is to post a picture review
Disputing a bad order
Hi all,
Recently had a bad order land. Ordered an oz which turned up dead and wet. Contacted the vendor who doesn't want to replace or refund which I get because its my word against his (although I know what landed and so does he).
I get we can dispute if an order doesn't land as I have had to do that before but what about bad orders? Is there anything we can do about it? I have contacted transaxe and waiting for a reply but thought I'd get others views as it must happen often. Anyone ever had to go through a similar issue?

The vendor should sort something out, disputing is a last option like i had to wait 1 month for a sample still hasnt arrived and the vendor is ignoring me so i disputed now
there really is no reason to wait since you can cancel a dispute with a click. also there is a time limit to how long you dispute i don't think it's as long as a month.

New Years resolution?
sorry to hear you news bigga.
for what its worth i cant imagine fatherhood without cannabis.
New Years resolution?
I need moral support, I was planning to give up this New Year's due to a little little one on the way which is due soon.
But it turns out my dad's illness is cancer and he is in palliative care, he is going to die any time, probably in a couple of days, we only found out today.
Should I give up giving up and order or stick at it?

What's you're best self?
If you feel happier when you smoke, then keep doing it. If you feel better when you don't, then knock it on the head.
Your nipper needs you at your very best, and your happiest.
Only you can judge that one buddy. I can tell you though that little ones need happiness.
Having lost a parent myself I feel your pain, but you need to do whatever you can for those issues not to affect your kid.
I'm sure your Dad would want you to be as proud and best a parent as you can be. In his honour.
Most important thing is that you stay strong. Your kid needs it.
Don't be afraid to ask for professional help by seeing your GP who can refer you.
There are a lot of people out there that can give you help.
Take care and all the best. ❤️

Hey dude, sorry to hear this. I went through the same thing with my farther a few years back and its a tough time..
Maybe give CBD flower a try? It may take an edge off without going down the whole THC route.
Also with a little one on the way CBD (or legal full spectrum extracts) is a nice way to get that familiar feeling we all love, but still be able to do all the things we need to as a responsible-ish adult. :)
If you ever need any advice on the subject let me know as I work in the industry.. There is also a CBD vendor on here as well if you need to buy anything :)
Hope everything goes as well as it can dude and stay strong...

Can't look after others if you don't care for yourself.
Don't make rules on if you should or shouldn't, you obviously would prefer not too at the moment but if you do it's ok. Especially as you own a silver surfer and they need cuddles or they get sulky.

Am loving this site, no more low grade weed and dealing with street dealers which put me of buying cannabis for many years. Am loving the health benefits of moderate evening use..and might make it a regular thing. I got connection problems to here regularly, and made me thing arent sites like this often under pressure to be closed by various agencies who try to put DOS on them ? And if so what backup info should I have to keep contact info for the vendors here .... or is there a mirror site which automatically goes on?
Yes there is a fork of littlebiggy called society which shares most of the data here. It requires the tor browser: http://societywcowsoak6.onion
No need to worry man, LB has been here for years. I would also like to see a back up, but at this rate there’s no need to as it’s going so smooth as hell. Anyways there’s no hard drugs on here like on the deep web, just weed a few other friendly one’s so need to worry about LB going down.

A friend of mine who's wife is sick is desperate and would like to try that, but would like to have some more information.
It is for a 60+ lady on her 9th year of alzheimers. It is pretty bad.
She never received any alternative treatment and is on standard set of pharma "approved" medications that do not seem to help or prevent further worsening of her condition. Symptoms include episodes of aggression, irritability, memory impairment, sundowning, general tiredness, etc.
Is there anyone out there that actually can say, by experience, that Cannabis and Cognitive enhancers helped with the treatment or at least alleviation of some symptoms of Alzheimers disease?
If so, i'd like to know more. What products (flower, concentrates), way of administering, dosages, duration, side effects to be aware of?
