Demand Is Setting Prices
Demand Is Setting Prices
This is an open and competitive marketplace, anyone can sell and with a little momentum from reputation can build a leading position on the site. Since I've been here I've seen the leaders change many times and they are never much more than a year old, usually much newer.
So I was thinking why isn't someone undercutting price now now? The site offers better rewards to a seller than ever because more people are buying more cannabis with all the bloody isolation adjustment.
But that's exactly the problem, demand is overwhelming supply. The lead time for production is months and even if someone can overcome the logistics challenges of covidworld they cant bring significant supply to change the price.
My solution is more efficient consumption, I'm vaping my stash instead of using my pipe. Contraption cost me a bit but with my use it pays for itself within a month or 2 which is probably what we need to see conditions normalise a bit.

Further, that may be why, because availability seems to be wearing thing for the short term at least. And that sounds like a good route forward for people, and in time people could potentially clock onto that in mass, and the industry could change, though I doubt it as hopefully things will be back to normal by New Year.
With you on the vaping. Also better for session smoking. The only other way is to buy larger over smaller quantities.. which isn't as easy with supply more limited. Cheapest I've found and can vouch for lately is some chemdawg og from a new seller https://littlebiggy.org/link/RQ184r
Im not sure about the economics but vaping makes it too impulsive for me, like if I just want to clear my mind there it is, and there it is again...
A more practical explanation rather than the daft paradigm of big boss's colluding around a table in a dark room to keep up the prices and slow the distibutiond, and Lol at the first comment.

UK biggaz How You Buying Your Bitcoin?
UK biggaz How You Buying Your Bitcoin?
I'm looking for a new provider as Coinbase bothers me on a few levels.
Bit panda as well you can use normal bank or credit cards if u want less traceability but need photo id
Yes, Coinmama is good, once verified, it's very easy to buy Bitcoin etc for a newbie!,
Usually complete after 20 mins via CC payment. I didn't realise it was so simple..
Usually complete after 20 mins via CC payment. I didn't realise it was so simple..
BittyLicious, pretty much instant transactions and ID verification was only a few hours, site looks shady as but I've had no problems using my bank account to buy my coin there. Not sure how much more their fees are as I haven't used any other method to buy coin. Bitpanda kept refusing my ID and didn't try coinbase as I've heard they keep suspending people's accounts.
What bothers you about Coinbase if you don't mind me asking buddy? I only ask as I just started using them, lower fees than BTC.com who I currently use?
bitquick.co was good for my 1st transaction because i didnt have my ID handy and they do up to $400 without it. fast but dear.
I spend the entire week trying to set up exchanges and wallets. I initially registered with coinbase because most say they are reliable and easy to use. Coinbase somehow did not work for me. Coinmama refused my verification (no idea why). After several attempts with others I finally managed to get it all to work with Binance to buy the BTC and an Exodus wallet. I just placed my first order here so I assume that combination works ok. Phew
Agree with the guys below... BitPanda is very good. You can also try BittyLicious, the rates are a bit higher but pretty instant. SpectroCoin is another OK site.
I would have to say Bitpanda, especially for anyone new to buying Bitcoin. Check out a review here: https://littlebiggy.org/link/ZuuQR4
and a bonus 10 dollars bills for new users

I'm sticking with Coinbase for now. That "Earn rewards" feature at the top netted me a free bag of weed, so not complaining yet, even if Coinbase does have a couple of slightly annoying quirks.
Bittylicious to Wirex wallet.
Used to use just Wirex and it was so easy but then they decided not the play ball with anything associated with Lloyds Bank.

Ive come to really like Jaxx, took a few uses to get used to,
but it works well

I am a bit hassled by Coinbase, although purchasing is easy. I use a separate wallet for my LB purchases... Never can be too careful ;)
Download the etoro app you need photo id then just buy bitcoin as a trading stock with the amount you have put on there with your debit card or linked to your paypal then it allows you to move the bitcoin to a etoro wallet and from the wallet you can send it where you want, simple as that.

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

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

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
At the end of a storm there's a golden sky. And the sweet silver song of lark. Walk out walk out with hope in your heart and youl never walk alone youl never walk alone! Liverpool all the way for me. Love all

Time for A Deeper Game, Any Suggestions?
It's been awhile since I've had time for anything but casual games, anybody wanna suggest something I'm parti al to cool sci fi worlds.
If you haven't already, I highly recommend playing the Mass Effect trilogy. I know it's a bit old now but it still holds up and is pretty deep, especially the first game. And I'd agree with sidetracked and say Outer worlds is probably the best recent Sci FI rpg.
Haven’t ever tried Outer worlds but seen a little YouTube video of it. Looks an awesome game. Fallout 4 is quite a good game to loose some hours to, though it isn’t quite sci fi it has element of it through out.
I'd recommend Prey if you haven't played this one already?
It's a super atmospheric, story rich, open world set aboard a space station. Some really cool stealth and crafting elements in there. Killer sound track to boot!

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

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

outer world was a let down it just did not grab me at all and i love games like that (am still playing skyrim and fallout 4 atm)
if it's a deep story you want I'd recommend Life is Strange 1 & 2. Some might say it's boring but it's great if you're stoned cause your brain can't process to much shit going on but u can control the outcomes by making decisions. Another one would be steins;gate with is time travel done right but this would come under visual novel category.
If you have want to make your own Story I can recommend Starsector or Rinworld. Both are really great „Sandbox“ Games.
thanks to all my biggaz on this you are really good recommenders, ive tries almost everything and its hard to narrow down :)
If you play borderlands 3 on PS4 let me know if you need weapons, artefacts or class mods let me know. I’ve played all four characters the full story and all dlc so far so let me know when you get to level 60 and I will send you stuff if needed.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition, Mass Effect Andromeda, Stellaris, Endless Space 1&2, Star Wars The Old Republic (MMO), Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic 1&2, Star Wars Rebellion, Surviving Mars, every Fallout (including the old, old ones), Dawn of War 2&3, Warhammer Gladius, Warhammer Deathwing, all the Half Life's and all the XCOM series! Phew, hope this helps 👍
If you're into sci-fi worlds I cannot recommend 'Outer Wilds' highly enough. One of the most creative, exciting and engaging games I've ever played. Just you, a space-ship and a mini universe to unravel.
Not to be confused with 'Outer Worlds'. Which is a fine game in itself, just a bit generic.

Civ 6, its even on Switch. Apart from that, I second Outer World's, Fallout, Elder Scrolls etc. If your a fan of old skool jrpgs like early Final Fantasy then I highly recommend the latest Dragon Quest.
I'm currently with no pc... But can't wait to revive my ps1 and ps2 memories on the renovated Mafia.

Back in the day people would use posters, fliers and stickers to promote. Targeting? That was done by hood.
You know a place or 2 where learning about little biggy would make you a missionary sent by God. Put up a few stickers around there with your referral link. Then watch the money pile up anonymously.

I really like this idea, there's a "high" street near me with 2 head shops and I'm always thinking if only they knew what i knew :)
But I'm not a graphic artist and I sure don't want to bring this project to one, any ideas?

Fiverr is a good cheap option for things like this, just use someone in a different country 👍

When Sean Connery's Brother Played James Bond's Brother
In Operation Kid Brother, a spoof that was easily one of the strangest attempts to knock off the Bond franchise that had ever come before a camera.
I ran after Sean Connery’s brother thinking it was actually Sean Connery once. Was pretty awkward, he was cool about it though.

Most Underrated Destination?
Sometimes you wind up in a place you never wanted to go .. and it rocks.
Montenegro, Albania, Slovenia, Romania, Gambia, Israel
wasn't really enthused as these were all group trips but fucking hell they were all sick. You could tell em you were going to Somalia and i would probably go with you nowadays, the world is vast, interesting and beautiful

Romania is fantastic👍….Transylvania genuinely spooky…lively and young street drinking culture…stunning women (all vampires obvs)…
I'll second that. I travelled from Cornwall to Bucharest by train last year, them onto Bulgaria. Romania is bloody stunning, especially as the train line followed the Danube and you could see across into Serbia.
krakow poland exemplifies many eras of europe with castles, squares and poignant reminders of ww2. the people are very friendly and the salt mines are a wonder of the world - the spot in the pic is carved out of salt hundreds of feet below ground.
Vietnam or Laos. Vietnam blew me away. Favourite spots were Hoi An, Tay Ninh and Can Thó. Stunning.
Please god don’t leave the city centre/Cape Town it’s like a different world outside of the capital but I’m from Cape Town ( originally) it’s actually a very western cosmopolitan place like London with a cool “woke” downtown full of expensive bars and Islington/camden style living.
It’s also on the beach with a Mediterranean style climate 1 hour from most national park and safaris.
Despite what you hear in the new it’s actually a pretty good place to live

Yes and Cape Town could use a lot more awokening, the legacy weighs heavy after a while.
Cape Town is literally the last safe place left in South Africa , heavy legacy maybe but the cape is great and comparable to California in the 90s
I was lucky enough to work on festivals/concerts and did a tour of Denmark that place surprised me really nice people, amazing beaches , also the outer Hebrides had amazing beaches
Kolkata. Didn't expect to like it. It is now my favourite city. So intense. Wonderful people. Great food. Amazing architecture.
West Co Kerry, Ireland. All along the wild atlantic way, Kenmare, Sneem, Glenbeigh, Killarney to name a few stops. So many good spots to stop, fire one up or have a pint and enjoy.
Honestly County Clare in Southern Ireland, my uncle married an Irish girl and moved there.
It really is like father ted there, your neighbours not for miles but you go into the local village and it’s just five pubs all joined on to each other.
The friendliest people I’ve ever met, it almost made not having anything to smoke for a week bearable…almost.

Kampot in Cambodia, went for a week last year and stayed for 3 months.
Beautiful scenery, can blaze pretty much anywhere in most western owned restaurants and bars at least. 50cent beers and a wacky expat crowd. Going back later this year too hopefully for a year 😜

If you’re South Asia bound , Laos although has a clear tourist path nowadays very easy to leave it , Borneo for amazing wildlife that if we carry on will probably be gone in a few years, Hampi in india like being on a weird cross between Mars and ancient civilizations , jailsalmer india again ancient city, for the smokers the himilayas in india
New Zealand is easily the most beautiful place I've ever been. Absolutely stunning. I wasn't particularly excited about going there at first, I thought it would be a bit boring, but after spending a few days on the North Island I completely fell in love with it. I even considered living there for a while.
We drove down from Auckland to Wellington and must have taken thousands of pictures. It's breathtaking. Probably the best two weeks I've ever spent abroad in my life.
When we left Wellington we flew to Melbourne, Australia, (which i was really excited about visiting) and it has to be the single most overrated city on the planet. Couldn't wait to leave. Absolute dump.
Funny how these things turn out sometimes!
Just my opinion though. No offence Melbournians 😉
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

I didn't, but oddly enough my phone did!
I left it on the plane from Wellington to Melbourne which flew back to Christchurch where the airport staff found it and mailed it to Aus for me. So my phone has been to more places around the world than I have!
I definitely plan to go back and visit the south island, I've heard only great things. Its such a long way away though or I'd go there all the time.
24 hour flights.... 😒

I’d love to visit NZ, I can speak a bit of Maori because I used to play online with some Maori mates and they’re some of the nicest down to earth people I’ve ever met
Considering it’s just a ferry ride they are completely different worlds…north is all sheep, rolling plains, and long beaches.. South is mad glaciers, extreme sports & penguins…just crazy 🤩👍
Have to say some great picks in this convo the one for me personally is cornwall on a warm clear night the sky is amazing to just be at one with nature and look up at it ;)

Just diving in because it's a music thread and I'm crazy about music. That said I love all kinds from blues to classical, from jazz to opera, and of course hard rock, synth, pop, soul and everything else - apart from rap. The one music genre that does absolutely nothing for me. Bought the 12" of "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash when it was released and still have it. And that's pretty much where it started and then ended for me...apart from the Fugees doing "Killing Me Softly", but that's all about Lauryn Hill, which is another story.

When you look back in time, what year is the one year you would go back to in your life and happily relive again ?
How old were you? What are some of the best memories? I think my second year of university was an unforgettable year 😂 I definitely took it for granted and would love to go back

The time period after my GCSE's. Innocent but not so innocent. No responsibilities except selling weed, chasing girls and playing football
Exactly this lol I can never forget that year, GSCE finish early so nice long summer, completely free doing the stuff you mentioned
Honestly? Probably like 2 years ago when my current relationship was the best thing ever. It's rough now and I would give anything to have that back
16, one year before the last year of high school. Living in Switzerland during summer, eating mushroom chocolates, hitting bongs of Swiss Dank, swimming in Bodensea and being lost beyond belief. Ahh, the Swiss dream... :)
I thought I was 27 for 3 years - woke up on my 30th birthday and was completely ok with that. Just didn't fancy 28 & 29 that's all 🙄
16. No doubt. 1996. Just finished my GCSE’s. Was in the 1st 11 school football team and we’d won the Surrey cup. Had a beautiful girlfriend who was that teenage first love. Brilliant football summer with Euro 96, (Sheringham, shearer and Gazza). Being British felt awesome (not like it does now). Amazing music. Massive oasis fan and knebworth was about to happen. All my mates together with their girlfriends. Drinking, smoking fags and soap bar ;) Had got into rave and hardcore and went to lots of little rave house parties. Absolutely magical. It’s my absolute happy golden place.
When I was 12, I had a 10 week break between going to middle school and secondary.
I lived on a new estate still being built among the woods, so there was plenty of material laying about for building dens, and plenty of unfinished buildings to climb on or mess about in.
We built fires and cooked sausages, drank the odd beer, smoked the odd fag and handed around dirty magazines. We genuinely thought we were the shit 😂.
The dens never lasted long as they either got pulled down by locals or rival kids, but that was all part of the fun. I even managed my first kiss and fondle that summer.

Now…the past is the past,I’ll always enjoy life now,know matter what’s happening even though I’m early fifties 😄
The minute I grew up and found out the cruelty of the real world was the minute the fun stopped.
I know that sounds heavy and I always answer these types of questions like this, I got diagnosed as Diabetic when I was 11, mum died , up until I was 17 my dad and me were bumping heads and I hated it (not linked to my mum I was adopted my birth mum died) I had times after where good stuff happened but I feel like I got dragged through maturity quickly because loads of stuff went to shit because of bad luck In life, my dad used to get pissed and just rent every night about needing to grow up and make money, came in the night before my 13th birthday bladdered and went “you’ve got copied video games for your birthday you’re a man now so do you need to do silly birthdays ?” And it went on from there.
Struggled hard as a kid, was very clever but could NOT wrap my head around things and did what I could, got to uni after winging it for years and failed miserably, went from hated job to hated job and here I am now at 31.
Got my own mortgage , beautiful amazing wife and a baby due in 3 months but I’ve had a wall in front of me for so many things for years that I’ve never been able to explain or get past, the depression for the last 12 years where no treatment, meds or CBT has helped has made me so cynical, jaded and overall angry and disappointed with myself.
I looked at a diagnosis for ADHD in my early 20s and got dismissed as a young man after Ritalin and after 11 YEARS on the NHS register with nothing and 4 on two private lists I was finally diagnosed 2 months ago and started medication ten days ago.
Decided to tell my dad about it last night he linked a daily Mail article saying it’s a myth so I spent two hours disproving everything that article said and he basically just said “You’re fine as you are you’re just anxious “ I’m not anxious.
So the meds are supposed to be working now but you can’t mix it with other stimulants like coffee and I drink about 4 pints of coffee or energy drinks a day to stay awake, same for weed apparently conflicts with the tablets which I smoke daily and alcohol (drink when I get the chance to feel chill).
So even though I’m on meds and titration to see what dose works for me I’m drinking on holiday, was assigned them maybe last Monday? Had to get my Bichon put down on Tuesday he had kidney failure and it came out of nowhere and because he was so silly and daft still it broke my heart to watch the life leave his eyes even if it was the right thing to do, so I’ve got grief, depression and drinking all on at the go when I’m meant to be seeing if these tablets stop me losing my temper at the smallest change.
Sorry for ranting, this wasn’t even the question I’ve just listed off everything wrong with life. Just needed to get it off my chest it’s been brutal lately.
My answer though, probably 17 to early 20s. First time getting my feet out into the world, I was a little geek until I was about 15 until I started coming out of my shell and really capitalised on that from 17 haha tried a lot of new things did a lot of new stuff but ultimately I wouldn’t relive any of it, just trying to do my best now for the sake of my soon to be daughter and don’t want to be freaking out because I can’t handle her crying so meds it is.
It’s funny, they were only really prescribed at this crucial point because if I hadn’t had meds at this point (been getting told for 6 months it’s a few weeks away) my fear of not being equipped to be a man let alone a dad would have probably been causing me to have a mental breakdown at this point.
I don’t want anyone to think I’m asking for pity, I’m not I’ve survived this long and will keep surviving but I think all your choices in life have clearly led us to where we are now, and even though I’d love to be back getting a blowjob and a stripe and feeling like I’d finally gotten free, the lessons I’ve learned from them have taught me some very important life lessons.
Cheers

Mate. Sounds like you've got lots on and are spooning out about becoming a dad. Take a breath, it'll all be good. Help your wife with the practical things so she can concentrate on the baby and everything else will follow. My dad's a cunt and it made me a great dad. You'll be grand.
1995 young free single and no children. Going to the Arches and sub club,my weekend started on a Thursday and finished on a Sunday afternoon.Dancing for hours on end not a care in the world.Good memories of crazy weekends Always saying never again but always back out Thursday night
Definitely my first year of uni!
But I’d also like to revisit my 20’s.. the youthful, handsome young me didn’t live life to the fullest back then and it is one of my biggest regrets now that I’m creeping into my 30’s.

When I was 14 some local flats were getting demolished and me and friends went there everyday for the summer the holidays I think for two years actually it took so long we had free run of the place broke through the roof and everything lol
Honestly, it's hard to pick. Life is unique, precious and fragile. We can't go back, only forward. So, I'd say now, purely because we've made it to the fucking future!
For me personally, I'd go back to a time before My kids had been brainwashed against me. So maybe 4-5 years ago, was a happier time for me. I took it for granted and life made me pay the price hard. 4 years later and 1 run through family court I'm still at square one.
Honestly, I'd give anything to have my kids back, but I am starting to accept I probably never will and one day I'll be fine with that, just not today.
Big love biggas 💚

theres always a square 2 bigga or maybe even a (family) circle, love and time can do that
4-11... no responsibilities, loads of family and good friends around and I could play and daydream all day without consequence 🙃

Worst song ever? And why... GO!
i went straight to the curls when you said simply red
+ 4 more
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.
Bruno Mars.
"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.

Good to see clean up Borg join in with this. I’m sure you AI have developed sentience 😂 all good with me
Cartman is hilarious. South Park is the only thing I’ve loved since it started and still watch now at 42. We should start a Cartman clip thread.
One of the things I love about lb is its a race free zone. You can say you are color blind IRL but here its an existenital condition.
Oh yes!! ....and Monty Python also wrote possibly the greatest love song of all time :) (not entirely sure it would qualify as an LB theme tune though....end credits though, maybe) :)
I'm putting forward this infectious little number...'In Hell I'll Be In Good Company' by The Dead South :)
Eminem ft Royce bad meets evil haha. The chorus is what nails it for me.
It may offend some tho...

A lady that i know just came from columbia,
She smiled because i did not understand.
Then she held out some marijuana, ha ha!
She said it was the best in all the land.
And i said,
"no, no, no, no, i don't smoke it no more,
I'm tired of waking up on the floor.
No, thank you, please, it only makes me sneeze,
And then it makes it hard to find the door."
(ah-ah-aye-aye)
A woman that i know just came from majorca, spain,
She smiled because i did not understand. (parazzi! Parazzi!) (ole!)
Then she held out a ten pound bag of cocaine,

"no, no, no, no, i don't sniff it no more,

Any biggaz doing 16:8?
this bigga
We are all over fasting 16:8 / OMAD (One Meal a Day) - 24 and 72 hour fasts, highly recommend it. There are so many facets to it, physically and emotionally better, clearer mind, feeling of connection and spirituality.
Couple of pointers that really helped us in the early stages:
1. You need to have a good relationship with food before you embark on any type of fasting
2. Think about the types of foods you regularly eat - heavy on carbs, processed foods, levels of protein and fats. Carbs tend to generate appetite and cause those hunger pains so its worth thinking about balancing more with proteins / fats so you can move your body into sources of energy from good fats / protein.
3. Do you eat breakfast or skip? Normally eat late dinners. Worth working out when is best to have the 16:8 period - tends to be easier to skip breakfast and have your eating window between 12-8pm
4. Making sure that the last meal you eat is as "nutritious" as possible. Meaning making sure its fully of good, healthy foods reach with good fats as these are the last to leave the digestive system and therefore provide satiety.
5. Make sure you keep busy for the first few days you do your fast as you will probably think about food more because you are restricting yourself (typical when you cant have something, its all you think about!). After a few days you will start to get into a rhythm with it.
5. Try not to fall into the temptation of over-eating or treating yourself to "naughty" foods because you have been so good in the day ;-)
Hope that helps friend, fasting is part of our lives now and not only have we seen weight loss but we have much more energy, we don't seem to get sick anymore and more importantly we have a better understanding of what foods work and don't serve us
Peace biggaz :-)

Totally into it. I tend to eat within an 8 hour window everyday and I have never been healthier (I'm 40 btw). Me and me mammy were talking about this for her digestion yesterday. She's even starting to have trouble with some veg so her digestion needs addressing.
I concur with the Psychonauts (hey guys! Love ya!), one needs to have a good mental and emotional relationship with food to get the best out of fasting. Personally, if I had three wishes one would be that we don't need to eat unless we want to for pleasure, I found the whole thing time consuming and would rather just do something else. I learning to appreciate each mouthful through conscious eating. Fasting seems to help with this for me.
I hope you find something that works for you. ❤️

Are you into fitness, nutrition etc mate? Not that it specifically had its benefits to the fitness industry but how I used it anyway. I'd highly recommend it as wirght loss technique and to improve general life health. I'd retype what psycho typed but he pretty much everything on the head
The wife and I have just started IF again. It's the only way I have been able to control my weight consistently in the last 14 years. I have tried all the fad diets and this is the only way I have managed to stick to a consistent weight.
I guess it's still about less calories in than our but just controlling it in an easier manor.
Im still over weight but I'm not massive which if I continued down the path I was going i would have ended up massive.

In some parts of India fasting it's referred has Ekadashi (2 x month)
It's align with moon phase and when our bodies are more open to this process.
It's a super powerful cleansing. It's also quite challenging

Quantum computing explained with a deck of cards
Quantum computing's massive power advantage is baked into the most fundamental level of information abstraction. Current computers are like atoms you can draw on a blackboard, to even discuss the quantum is to dive into existential questions from a philosophy class, leaving apparent reason behind.
The massive power is difficult for us to fathom and it's likely we won't have to, AI - powered by quantum computers - will do the creating, becoming functionally equivalent to God.
So consider this a simple fable as we look to the sky and come up with explanations that work for mortals.

Even a simple quantum computer will break the encryption that protects us on LB and bitcoin.
Oh, when they get to that point hopefully the last thing they'll worry about will be us, the little poor biggy felas
Imagine governments having to upgrade/close all their military-grade security stuff in no time..

Yes eventually an algorithm created back in 1994 by Peter Shor will break nearly all encryption that we have right now.
Quantum computing will no longer be limited to traditional binary which is what makes it so much quicker it can have a superposition of either before output this could increase computing power exponentially, its actually quite difficult to comprehend yet theoretically very possible.
Skynet shit mate..

Fascinating and incredible, not sure I can understand it all, but I’m super excited to see what the future holds with regards to quantum computing. I believe it was google recently who were able to solve an equation using a quantum computer achieving quantum supremacy. I have a brief history in time, by the late and great Stephen Hawking, which I haven’t read yet, but can’t wait to read.

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

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

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

What is Neo Feudalism?
As governments take over the economy partnering with corporations and the super rich we are left with something that looks a lot like feudal times.
I think there has always been feudalism in one form or another. There is always a class that ultimately owns everything because they can confiscate it, grant it a "title" or tax it. This premise always leads to same outcome it's just a matter of how greedy or insane the current landlord is.
Everything consolidates one way or another, thats why decentralization is both great and doomed.
Anthropologist David Graeber did a book about about this myth called Debt. There is no evidence for class dominant economics bar this relatively small and recent period of time. Obviously the myth has more value than the reality.
probably starting from the neolithic era yes with the only exception of the 20th century, the only period of history where people got a bit of control of the power. Now is going to be lost for decades to come.
We need to look on the bright side, we are actually free serfs. We are free to seek a new master and we can seek redress in the crown courts, unfree serfs couldn't. However if we hadn't spent so much bit coin here we might actually be free with the value of it now.
I call it digital feaudalism. And yes, we have never really exited the feudal system. It just morphs and transforms, keeping the 1% at the top, making almost all the rest their slaves.
Thanks for sharing.
I see examples of this not just on the internet but in all industries. Walk down most high streets here in the UK and they now pretty much all look identical the same shops, coffee shops and chain restaurants with very few independent offerings. The cost of rent, business rates and all the red tape make it pretty much impossible nowadays for small independents to even start up.
Watching a show about fisherman on the BBC painted a picture of the EU quota system they must use and how the industry is dominated by money and huge boats and how these owners buy up small fishing boats and take the quotas these boats have to use on the mega trawlers.
The car industry seems totally monopolised now and we actually get very little choice - notice how the different makers share chassis and engines and the only real difference you get is the interior and badge. Everything else is pretty much controlled by rules and regulations.
It is obvious that these big players of industry are in cahoots with the those that set the rules and regulations as we saw with the emissions scandal with VW and EU collaboration.
Covid and lockdowns have exacerbated the situation as many small business owners left without any financial supports have gone to the wall while government loans to the huge corporations sit unused in their bank accounts.
Truly depressing times.

This is the model dreamed up by Gabrielle D'Nunzio, Mussolini, Franco and later tried by Stroessner, Pinochet and Thatcher. Always fails cos tho i am a committed capitalist even i realise extraction cannot work for ever as either you run out of victims (Franco, Pinochet) or the victims turn on you (Mussolini, Thatcher) At least Il Duce didn't cry when his turn came, Thatcher mewled and puked like a rat.
Fascinating. Bleak. truly people have been brainwashed by the media and now vote with their wallets. Far more regulation required at the top end, we cant stop the progress, and in many ways it serves us well. Democracy can still win the day, and we can unite for the good of all people. Education is the key, and a few good humans can change the world. It cant be allowed that rampant free market capitalism destroys us. Roll on technical singularity, according to Moores law would be around 2042 but i believe the theory is faultering (Moores law) so might take a bit longer. Technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization. We have just leisure time so we study philosophy and all becone enlightened beings living in a tech utopia. Peace
Moore's law is doing fine once you abstract it to include progress besides chip density. Computation overall is on track when you include advances in software and a.i.
it will take more than economics for everyone to spend their leisure time studying philosophy. but im with you at least
Hope so but would we be the same beings, even the same species? I think Nietszche was mostly a clown but "homo, ecce homo" hits home
What is Neo Feudalism and being British mean?
Neo-feudalism refers to a concept that draws parallels between modern societal structures and the feudal system of the Middle Ages. It suggests that power and wealth are concentrated in the hands of a few influential individuals or entities, leading to a significant wealth disparity and limited social mobility. In a neo-feudalistic system, there may be an entrenched hierarchy, with a small elite class exerting control over economic, political, and social aspects, while the majority of the population faces limited opportunities and struggles to improve their circumstances.
Being British refers to being a citizen or a resident of the United Kingdom or having a connection to British culture and heritage. It typically implies a sense of national identity associated with the customs, traditions, and values of the British people. It encompasses aspects such as the English language, British history, British institutions, and cultural practices that are prevalent in the UK. However, it's important to note that "being British" can mean different things to different people, as it can encompass a diverse range of identities and perspectives within the multicultural society of the United Kingdom,

Like the last feudal era they will ultimately fail IMO. Biden, bezos, bj and the two conos in NZ & Canada are only one mad bomber away from losing all the kleptocratic gains they have extracted. Putin and Xi poss a battalion or two away. Even if the above are stopped there are always despots trying their luck. The better angels of our nature (thanks Pinker, S) have always stayed in the fight so that the new boss is NOT always the same as the old boss (thanks Townshend, P)

Has anybody else received a fpn today in the post? Seems one of our vendors has been flytipping and I recognise the return address as I used to use him a lot but haven’t since probably February which is even more worrying. With the evidence they’ve sent me there’s seems to be a lot of addresses on there so I’m guessing I’m not the only one!
Yes mate and loads of other peoples tracking details for other packages too! Just put it in the bin not out on the streets! 😂
Is the evidence you’ve seen opened parcels with the customers names on front and return address you recognise on the back?
Yes mate I am the customer and the return address is the one the vendor always uses for returns. It was in the photos attached to my pcn. Hate littering at the best of times!
So how did the vendor get these opened parcels, with tracking details, back in order to dump them 🤔 somethings not adding up.
Never use your real name when ordering if you use your home address, gives you at least some deniability.

It’s been repackaged before sending hence why he has it. Not sure why he would bother to repackage though.
Im not totally sure i understand.....a vendor has thrown away lots of rubbish fly tipping and that rubbish included things with your name & address on? and coz of that you got a fine for doing the fly tipping yourself? :O
Thats fucking crazy and very lazy of the vendor! Have you contacted them about this mate?

#8 Common Ground Is Your Real Estate
A thousand eyeballs from the right audience is worth a million from the peasantry.
There are many communities that play biggy as close as butter did toast. These subreddits and small enthusiast sites welcome what's on offer here, you're doing them a favor and boy are they doing you one.
I have clients that make thousands of dollars each month from surprisingly small sites. Remember each bigga you introduce is your little cash machine for years, every purchase they make earns bitcoin for you.
It doesn't hurt that this is a great place where people like to stick around. Like you they just need to find it.

A very good one,
I would post something interesting you make or just see on the net
1st on your lb page and
then link back to it from the subreddit.
A straight up pitch for lb is rarely the way to go, use specific content that works in your context,
once they are here the place speaks for itself :)

3. so say if they come back another day to join through an address that is'nt your referral, would you still get?
4. Is it the same process/pricing for you merchant referrals as purchaser referrals?
5. How much/percentage is a referral for merchant/purchasers worth?
6. What is the payment process?
Many Thanks and namaste for sharing your wisdoms and linguistic flair. :)

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

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

Check out some of the following:

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.

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.

He wasn't far off: “If the exercise and exchange of inexhaustible knowledge raises the quality of man, then in the electric age he will have his first universal opportunity to be richly human. But this extension of the human dialogue to embrace all men and all kinds of knowledge may appear to some to turn the globe itself into a single computer”.
The internet was privatised from day one. It's boring saying things like that, as if in a vacuum.
if by day 1 you mean 30 years later then yes indeed

High Liver Enzymes
So my doctor has me take a blood test and it comes back with
AST 43
ALT 48
ALP 40
GGT 84
He says they are all running high except ALP but OK pretty much. I ask him what this all means and he really doesn't have any kind of answer except to keep an eye on it. The whole thing seems really primitive like an idiot warning light on a car dashboard. I would love to know more specifically the processes of how this can develop into disease.

It's not the enzymes that lead to disease they are markers of liver cell malfunctions. If the cells are damaged or if the bilary (liver+gall bladder) system is damaged/blocked these enzymes get released into your blood.
Yes and there can be a few malfunctions that lead to this. Each of those malfunctions have other "leaks" so some more datapoints will help show if those are pointing to liver inflammation or nearby auto-immune system errors.
How are your bilirubin levels? This data in concert with the enzyme numbers can point to or eliminate a few things that might be going on.
Sounds like Gilbert’s Syndrome to me, a benign hereditary liver condition, I have it myself... sometimes I look a tad jaundice, bit tired etc but nothing too bad, I got diagnosed after repeatedly having high liver values and high Bilerubin. I’d ask to be looked into for this syndrome, as I say of no real importance to life and I drink a lot and always have done and had liver scans etc and my liver is fit as a fiddle it’s just the levels show high so even for peace of mind it’s worth checking.
Thanks for this keen as hell insight, do you know if there is a test for the gene? How did you reach your conclusion?
Hi
My ALT levels were at 114 so yours are not high from UK guides.
mine was due to Fatty Liver, had to change my diet and its coming down slowly. They had to do a ultrasound to check but also did a Hep B test to see if there was any liver inflammation but thank God mine was ok. Try taking milk thistle it helped my ALT levels come down along with 2.5 litres of water a day, blackseed oil (cold pressed organic), coffee, plenty of green tea and low sugar, salt and fat diet. If you drink alcohol id stop.
Im not a dr but thought id share from what my experience was although it may not be same for you.

Im not a dr but thought id share from what my experience was although it may not be same for you.
Interesting to read this, I got diagnosed with fatty liver in February and have gone through a very similar process.

Require proof of vending experience on other platforms to open a store here. If you get banned you stay banned, gets rid of the perpetual circus of bad actors opening pages feeding shit to our biggas.
Money talks unfortunately, 10% of each pop-up store will be significant. Mentality must shift towards a community focus or the churn rate will rise as more biggas clock on to what’s happening.
Oh and for the love of god please give us ltc/xmr options already!

i used to use those platforms, they are corrupted as fuck, especially the ratings. i was regularly asked to review and finalise payment for product before a seller would even ship. turning a pile of shit like the darknet into canon for a community like this makes 0 sense.
whats needed is courage to review and call out bad items. the more proof the better or its hard to discriminate from sabotage.

Exciting to see the community coming together to brainstorm new features for LittleBiggy! One idea I’ve been thinking about is introducing a reputation or badge system for both buyers and sellers. This could help quickly identify trusted and experienced members of the community, making transactions feel safer and more reliable.
Another feature that could add value is a wishlist or save-for-later option. This would allow users to bookmark products they’re interested in, making it easier to revisit items when they’re ready to make a purchase or if they’re waiting for a price drop. GAW

{star trek}
Worst Star Trek Series of All Time?
no offence but do you happen to be romulan?
I loved the opener with Klingons on Earth but even then it kept getting dumber with that poor man's Kirk routine from this guy. It seems like he belongs in an old Disney movie playing off a car.
Discovery by a long way for me. It just didn’t feel like Star Trek. Rewatched all of Enterprise recently and it was way better than I remembered.
Really? The 2nd season was annoying as any grade school social propaganda but I thought the 1st season was right up there near the best Trek.
I’m sure I’ll rewatch it in a couple of years and have a fresh perspective. I just couldn’t handle ( forgive me if I’m taking Star Trek too seriously ? )the fact that, fundamentally Star Fleet is military, yes? How did Tilly make it onto a military vessel? Even Reg Berkeley for all his foibles had a semblance of respect for the fact he was on a military mission. I love Joss Whedon’s dialogue and sass but he’s an inappropriate inspiration for Star Trek characters.
A Trekker with some chops, welcome aboard sir. How would you rank Saru? I thought he was better than Data and right under Spock until they destroyed his character in the 2nd season.
saru should be carrying more of the woke issues (he's got several dimensions to work with) and let the humans stop being caricatures.
Can you remember when Enterprise was on channel 4 on a Sunday and if there was a two part one, they would show part one and forget to put part two on the week after!
totally agree. I watched part of discovery with my flatmate who hasn't seen any other trek series, she loves it and i feel nothing for it. I feel like it was made to bring in new fans
might try re watching enterprise but i don't have much hope for that either.
might try re watching enterprise but i don't have much hope for that either.
For me it has to be Enterprise. Even the theme music felt wrong to me. It felt like the cast never really jelled and as a result the whole thing feels flat and disappointing.
Maybe its time to consider re-watching Enterprise? Perhaps it will age like a fine wine! ?
I'm waiting for this thread to descend into a Star Trek vs. Star Wars debate, but we all know there is only one winner....
Live long and prosper ?

No. Don’t bother. It’s dreadfully noughties. Faux jeopardy and bad acting galore. Thank god Firefly came along when it did
Picard. It breaks my heart to say it, but what a huge disappointment. Patrick Stewart was wasted on that tripe.
Discovery has to be a close second it's not terrible but it's not really Trek.

That's cheating but hell yes!
Not sure how old this thread is but what are my fellow biggie Trekkies thinking about ‘Strange new worlds’? On Paramount +
Enjoyed voyager except for Tom Paris and his boring holodeck programme. Any episode in which he was the main character were crap but just my opinion !
the latest movies, running the same plot as the wrath of khan but instead of being in their mid 50s...which was the point of the plot...they were like 11..and it made zero sense...see now spock isnt a vulcan at all in his behaviour, he shouts and looses it like a moron...star trek is written by retarded 9 year olds now...like most hollywood crap
I kinda loved them it was nice to see a real budget at work, actually saw the 1st one in 4d.
I was going to say DS9 but I actually enjoy the later seasons. The original show was so dated I couldn’t bother to watch it. Enterprise was dire but short lived. Honestly I don’t think trek has bad series... the new films on the other hand ???

Quite possibly, it's an existing theory.

"He said one of the psychoactive plants, harmal, found in the Sinai and elsewhere in the Middle East, has long been regarded by Jews in the region as having magical and curative powers."

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

suggested prompts for negotiating rent?
my landlord wants to raise my rent and i'd rather not deal with this shit right now but i can't pay what he's asking for this place. seems perfect for a.i. but i want to use the right prompts.
Dear [Landlord's Name],
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you regarding the recent request for an increase in rent. As a tenant who has always paid rent on time and taken care of your property, I want to express my concern about the proposed increase in rent.
As you may be aware, the economic situation has been difficult for many people due to the pandemic, and I am no exception. Unfortunately, my financial situation has not improved, and I am unable to afford the new rent cost. I would like to bring to your attention the financial struggles that I am facing, including [insert specific financial challenges, such as job loss or reduction in hours, unexpected expenses, etc.]
In light of these circumstances, I kindly request that you reconsider the proposed rent increase. I would be willing to discuss alternative solutions to help alleviate any financial burdens, such as a temporary reduction in rent or a payment plan that would allow me to gradually catch up with the increased rent.
I value the positive relationship we have built over the years, and I hope that we can work together to find a solution that benefits both parties. Thank you for taking the time to consider my request.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]

writing in the style of a cordial yet firm attorney write 3 sentences explaining why a rent increase is not feasible for me.
As my client’s legal representative, I must articulate that the proposed rent increase is untenable for them, due to financial hardships that have been exacerbated by recent events. This increase, regrettably, does not align with the spirit of fairness nor the original understanding between landlord and tenant, potentially placing an undue burden on my client. We respectfully urge a reconsideration of this decision, seeking a compromise that maintains the tenancy while respecting my client’s financial realities.
not bad, running this in chatgpt3 you get:
Dear Landlord,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns about the proposed rent increase. While I appreciate your efforts to maintain the property, I must respectfully decline the increase as it is not feasible for me at this time. As you are aware, I have been a responsible and timely payer of rent and I trust that we can find an amicable solution that is beneficial for both parties.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]

look up other rent in the area, if it is out of line with that, that should be your main point.
if it is in line then stres you cannot afford it (we are in a cost of living crisis) and stress how good a tenant you've been
good luck

You can also research if criminal activity has increased in the area in the last year. I've used it once as argument and it worked

Hi test Borg. I'm all for edibles testing. An am happy to send anything needed.
But I would like to day the way in which edible items have been removed business on my sweets has gone as no one can see them. All the hard work put on to get honest reviews have been lost. An all this without warning.
I really do feel list vendors should have been pre warned or dropped a message from your self so we could prepare for our next plan of action.
Thank you an hope u don't take anything I say personal. But we as vendors put in alot of hard work.
Thanks

That cliff top and billowing clothes! Fuck, I'd forgotten about this too! Add that and Peter Cetera's solo career to my list, and Chicago.
First record I ever bought as 9 year old was T. rex ride a white swan, second was Rolf Harris !
If you want really embarrassing, first ever gig I was 15 and got asked by bunch of friends to go to a cliff richard concert, not a cliff fan but went as fancied a girl. Two songs in realised it was a religious tour, no devil woman tonite.
Still cringe at memory of everyone holding hands and singing allehluya.

I have electric 6s gay bar on vinyl, doesn't represent who I am or even my favourite genre of music, I just think it's a tune. It does raise questions when someone notices it for the 1st time, especially if they've not heard it, because I then feel the need to make them hear it and agree it's a tune
Unbelievably good live. Saw them play a Barfly not long after they'd released that single. Amazing band. Have the album on vinyl.
Jolene - Dolly Parton. Love it.
On other end of my collection is Ready or Not, DJ Hype Remix.
I'd say my record collection is a bit "eclectic"! Haha.;)

Jolene is never embarassing, well at 104db past a funeral precession maybe other than that Jolene is part of every good collection.
I'm told by others that it's this. If it comes on the radio though you are having Tiffany sung at you full blast, possibly slightly out of tune, and I don't care.
Not in my collection per say but definitely listened to it more than I’d like to admit back in the day 😂 who remembers princess superstar bad babysitter😂😂😂
Saw her live about 20ish years ago. Was great. Have a limited edition Frank Kozik poster (photo added) advertising one of her New York shows. Love Kozik's work from around that time. Had an awesome one advertising a show by The Oblivians (if you don't know them, look them up) too, but that's not near mint like the PSS one as it spent a lot of time on walls in various houses.

A libertarian ‘startup city’ in Honduras faces its biggest hurdle: the locals
“We have effectively created a business model that provides a profit to investors as a result of creating generalized prosperity,” he said. Policies that boost resident incomes will enlarge tax revenue for Próspera, which will yield larger dividends for investors — incentives elegantly aligned. That’s the theory anyway.
I’ve seen reports about this before.
Anything with the word ‘libertarian’ in it rings alarm bells, like hard right conservatives they believe in a free of all regulation business model that essentially vies for slavery and feudalism.
USA libertarians are linked with extreme right wing rich like Mercers, Koch network and other highly undesirable elements that often feed into extreme Christian fundamentalists such as the dominionists of which the Mercers are followers. They espouse the truly worrying thinkings of one USA right winger James Buchanan and his free market economics. In the U.K. the tories are pushing ‘free ports’ which are enclaves for the rich to avoid customs and tax and to entrench themselves at the expense of normal working civilians, but libertarians especially despise the poor and disadvantaged.
Any further grips on power I treat as extremely concerning.
I would urge anyone to read up on some of the names I’ve mentioned , their thinking is highly unpleasant and goes against any notions of a fair society…..

on one hand it disgusts me that some body thinks they can grant freedom to a port in the first place.
but many of the greatest cities on earth have been built from free ports.
but many of the greatest cities on earth have been built from free ports.
It is not so much the question of ‘free ports’ per se as they have been around for a long time.
It’s the running and operation of them post Brexit which is worrying. The EU has clamped down on theirs due to the massive sums of tax avoidance and allegations of smuggling occurring within them, usually linked to large corps and very rich individuals.
Whereas here in the U.K. the signs are not good with the potential for money laundering and other criminal activities.
Also free ports in other countries have been linked to poor workers rights and conditions.
A situation that would suit conservatives.

I think although this might be well versed, it fails to notice the significant distinction between deontological and consequentialist libertarianism.
That is the crux of the matter full stop as far as the lassez faiyre way goes.

Sure. When you think of the Libertarian "rules", you ask whether following the rule is important even if you follow the rule without understanding why the rule is there. Not a wave to anarchy, but an honest approach to understanding the motivation for the rule. And asking whether simply abiding by the libertarian doctrine is more important than being happy?
The deontological libertarian just simply believes in the rules. Do no harm for example. No stray, no asking if or but, or in this circumstance, but just follow the rule.
Contrastingly the consequentialist libertarian believes that what makes people prosperous and happy is what is most important and the rules should be based around that. They are not pacifists, or against force (or harm) per say, but they support strong private property rights because it generally makes people happy and prosperous.
Libertarianism has an innate conflict in deciding on issues like whether to support abortion or not because of this split.

Interesting but is this the innate conflict wrt abortion and liberty?
Seems like its simply the rights of a parent vs the rights of a fetus.

Libertarian in the Rothbard sense is a relatively new thing and American. For hundred years or so prior elsewhere it meant anarchist or agrarianism. It's still very much in use in that vein.
Conservative Libertarians in the US are also linked to dominionists like the Mercer family and the hard right theories of Patrick Buchanan

US to citizens: Give Us All Your Gold or 10 years in Jail

US to citizens: Give Us All Your Gold or 10 years in Jail
FDR literally confiscated every American's gold. Will this be government's ultimate move with crypto?
Which govt? Given the current prevailing global ideology is extreme neoliberalism, fuelled by libertarian ideals, it seems unlikely, except potentially for the use of controlling criminal use of currency.
Personally I don't subscribe to a hyper individualistic libertarian neo liberal philosophy. And I think that in looking at what FDR did - lifting the US economy, the alphabet agencies etc - he did make the USA better. And subsequent adherents to the philosophy I have described above have undone much of his work.

looking at the economic and societal impact (worldwide) fdr's legacy is militaraising the united states. the country has been in a constant state of war since he was in office and americans now devote a day of work each week to buying weapons and feeding soldiers.
i can't see how his administrative agencies have been undone. apart from the legal challenges of his own time they are much bigger than they were then.

Given the war he was funding, I am not sure I blame him for heavily funding the military. In fact, as someone whose family were murdered living in a country that the Nazis tried to invade, I kind of celebrate it.
And given the cold war, most of his successors can't be blamed either. You can look at presidents from Reagan onwards for blame.
Nearly all the new deal agencies are now gone.

I chose a very easy one for myself this year because I'm a real lazy fucker. As I enjoy fishing and didn't go last year due to lack of self motivation my resolution is to go fishing this year at least once. Probably do a bit of macky bashing in the summer.
Exactly the same as me 😂 I’m also guilty of buying lots of fishing gear shiny lures etc expecting after my expensive purchases it might give me the oomph to go… it does not! 😂 Damn urge to wake and bake is my issue!!
Maybe your new year's resolution should be to resist the urge to get baked on your fishing day until you're actually fishing haha
Wow that's very kind of you. Only edibles I've ever had was a couple of space cakes in Amsterdam, which put me on my ass! I'll look forward to trying these. Cheers 👍
Shared one with the Mrs the other night. We both felt zonked out and motivated at the same time lol. A nice heady stone and a lot stronger than expected. I found it to be a very good base for vaping and smoking on top of. Strong positive vibes all round. Cheers uWakeiBake.
Damn, seems a lot of us smokers like to 🎣
Imagine a smoking / fishing lake, surely if private in uk and syndicate no other fuckers could come snoop on my plan? 🤔

That’s awesome dude thank you so much!! I will pm you now 😁 Probably the best catch I will get all year 🤣
Hey mate just wanted to say thanks for these!
As I’ve said in dm to many biggas in struggling with my addiction and with kid stress finding it near impossible to cut down let alone stop.
I had these at my computer desk and found eating one would last me a game of dota without a joint so helped a wee bit and I’m very grateful matey ❤️

I am with you mate, 3 weeks in no THC. I feel fresher. Decided to stop for a trip to Munich. I was so fucked on the way back security pulled me in for full search (Sans rectal), and swabs. That's you get when drenched in sweat, only wearing a thsirt in the snow. I reckon they thought I was a certainl pull 😂
Good going mate you on a t break?

Im lazy too so do all my fishing from the comfort of the couch, the other night i was in my boat in the middle of a huge lake with my bong and a glass of wine fishing for catfish in my sliders!
What fishing game mate?

Just sea fishing. Mostly for mackerel but sometimes for bass and bream. Love me a bit of bream.
I really need to get out and do some sea fishing, think you can pay for day trips as I’ve not got any sea gear and spent enough on carp gear already 😂
Just don't do what I did and go when the the sea's choppy. Did this twice and was green both times 😂
My New Years resolution is to gain some weight and start properly working out, sick of being skinny and want to dabble into calisthenics and maybe some creatine for the boost.. I’m always on my PC and my posture sucks
You got a good chair for your pc sessions mate..
Invested in a second hand herman miller and my back seems to be correcting itself from years of hunched abuse, even standing straight more often without realising 🥳

Had 2 last night and slept for 8 hours straight. Don’t remember when I last done that, it was amazing!
You should call them insomnia cure gummies- they would fly out
I struggle to sleep due to osteoarthritis and these really helped
What is the shelf life of these if I were to bulk buy but unable to store in fridge?

That is fantastic news mate. We know how you would feel brand new, after a good quality sleep and we can only imagine the dreams you must of had!
So essentially they are sugar and flavourings with the THC & CBD of course! So if kept sealed and cool you can expect them to stay good for 3months to be safe and upto 6 if you keep them in the fridge sealed.
Another top tip is to take regular breaks, as your tolerance will build up! 👍✌️♥️

My resolution is to spend less and smoke the weed I have BEFORE buying more......managed to resist pulling the trigger so far but still insist on adding delivery deliciousness to my cart, currently up to 9 items. 😐 Must resist the temptation!!! 😁
there is a logic to this: preserving novelty. every chemical reaction seems better the 1st time or 2 and eventually becomes a bore. so if you keep switching it up it seems like you are counteracting this. but fucked if i've ever really kept track of this :)
Told myself I won’t smoke. Ended up enjoying my new years with a Fat joint smh 🤦♂️.

why are btc transaction fees down now?
paid 30 satoshis, 1/10th of what it was in december. how is this possible?
It's always worse in December, btc had huge gains and traders can add it to their p and l if they sell before the end of the year.
It’s like saying “got caught in gridlocked traffic yesterday but today it wasn’t so bad, wonder why?” In this case it’s just transactional demand. The halving event expected this spring will sustain a lot of volatility…
Hi Polly
I'm no expert in crypto but from the little reading I've done the increase in fees is due to the explosion in traffic.
I bought a micro vape from Psychonauts end of last week (30th of Dec) as I could foresee them selling out fast and it took 22 hours for the coin to reach transaxe.
The increase in traffic is supposedly linked to bitcoin ordinal NFTs but crypto biggas will surely correct my statement if wrong.
Cheers

Are fees still high Polly? Bought a couple of weeks before Xmas and it was something like £15 on top of a £100 order.
I’ve got an order from the Druids to pay for tomorrow so hoping it’s come down a bit :(

Hey Tony, according to this tracker fees are averaging a little under $12 so I guess we might be under £10?

Ok cheers Polly. I hope bittylicious comes up trumps then.
Probably have to do the transaction at 0300am to make sure I can get the quietest and cheapest time to do it.

I've been trying to buy since before Xmas. Bittylicious fees not too bad but network fee to send to LB is currently between £16-£20. Which is ridiculous 🙄
A while back we would have screamed blue murder at £13 fees. Now it’s a cause for celebration 🤷♂️
As always due to the daft ‘no dates on comments’ this site implements I’m not sure when this was posted - but they’re still high on Coinbase. I just got stuffed £18 on top of a £120 order. Still better then the £35 it asked for in December. Harsh man 🤯

{Economics}
how hard is it to get skills anymore?
the growing divide between rich and poor, the loss of jobs to immigrants and robots, youth unemployment, nearly every economic problem is caused by a lack of value producing skills.
but why? nearly everything you could do in this world can be learned for free with this little invention called the world wide web. i think you have heard of it even if you don't have an expensive computer.
a p.o.s. android phone and free wifi has you in many of the finest classrooms on earth, you don't need a wing named after your grandfather anymore.
if you don't have the patience for this there is a youtube video for 21st century dummies on nearly every lesson on earth, pause, rewind, learn at your own pace for free.
yeah sorry, the assembly line that paid for 3 weeks off isn't hiring anymore, neither is the lord's farm or those stone hauling gigs down in egypt. things have changed - for the better.

Acquiring knowledge is different to acquiring skills.
You're not going to learn how to deal with patients, or good bedside manner, if you're a nurse, from a YouTube video.
Nor dealing with livestock if you're a farmer. These things come with time on the job.
I do agree though that your average degree, certainly in humanities, can be done from your sofa.
The Internet is a wonderful thing. I think sometimes we forget how lucky we are to have this amount of knowledge at our fingertips.
Just my 2p.
Cheers BB

Try to think from the perspective of a business owner. Sifting through resumes. Bachelor's. honours. Doctorates. Oh no. This mad lad has googled it. Hire him now
Anyone can acquire the skills that they want, it just depends upon how dedicated they are. I mean there's a shit ton of skills that i want to master and learn, but usually i'm busy with other things. The internet is a wonderful thing. But also, it takes a lot of time to learn certain skills and most people like my self are quite lazy and can't be asked to learn new things, unless they really want to.
True but I'm not sure about "anymore". It's always been possible for motivated people to acquire skills, it's easier now but I don't think that is going to change the dynamic. People are afraid and or lazy when it comes to pursuing things that aren't right up in their face.
Find something that fascinates you. And just will yourself to know everything there is to know about it.
There is knowledge, there is wisdom, and there is also passion.
If you don’t have a passion for something. You’ll never truly know about it. And if you don’t truly know about it, you’ll never gain true wisdom.

Actually all of our problems are due to over population. One person can do more work now due to technology. Also humans keep on devaluing themselves by constantly breeding. It’s the law of supply and demand. The fewer of us there are the more valuable we are to employers. When we breed out of control then employers can pick whoever they want. That’s my opinion;)

I get what your saying but the person carrying out the skilled job more often than not needs proper training and certification if not just for the client but more importantly for insurance purposes!
Insurance would work a lot better if there were public records of outcomes on a blockchain rather than a certification authority that inevitably becomes a racket.
This is true from the perspective of individuals, but what about societies. Societies like governments take most f our resources under the auspices of producing better outcomes.
If society says yeah anyone can do anything if they play the game right that's a fail. It should be a matter of course that an honest and motivated person is going to do well but that's not what we have. The only sure thing in our society is access to power.

Santa Claus: World's Biggest Conspiracy
I dunno about biggest especially when we're talking Christmas.
Santa Claus: World's Biggest Conspiracy
Do you pass along this lie to your children? Mind control, false gods and unbridled greed, this is not Jah's way.
Now hang on a minute- I went to Universal Studios in the 80’s, queued up, sat in that car and had a good old chat with Kit so don’t you go suggesting he’s not real! 😜
Their little faces on Christmas Day though. Nothing wrong with a bit of magic for the little ones at Christmas time.
There is so much real beauty in the world, celebrating this magic would lead to better outcomes for everyone.
Well I think how people just follow without researching is quite surprising. I mean ask them the question what does santa claus have to do with Jesus Christ, they will most likely not have a clue or what does things like christmas tree (grown in winter, Europe, nothing to do with mid-east climate), reindeers, etc or even the fact that Jesus was born in winter have anything to do with his birth ? as many acknowledged scholars say he was born in spring or summer and no disciples and earlier followers used to celebrate any birthdays at all
‘tis true.. There’s nothing in the Bible about the date of Jesus’s birth, but the earliest calculation, made in the second century, reckoned it was in March. So we’re nine months late on the whole…
I wanna try some of that shisha ol' Nick was puffing on with his flying reindeer in the snow in Turkey. I wonder where they got their spruce trees too.
The actual "Santa" is Odin, and JUL is Scandinavian winter solstice tradition that long predates it's Christianisation. The gifts, the lights, the goats, even the fucking cookies and milk, all stolen and twisted into more bullshit.
Fuck Jesus, Saint Nicholas, Odin and your Jah.

Hello, just wondering if anyone can help. I've updated trust wallet recently and followed all the troubleshooting steps but I still can't connect it to any DApp to transfer or recieve crypto. Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it?
i regularly have trouble with trust wallet wallet connecting to dapps but never all dapps. may i ask which dapp you are trying to connect to?
Thanks for replying. I think this is a trust wallet issue because I tried a dozen different dapps and I've found out that loads of people are having the same issue since an update was rolled out recently. Looks like I'll need to find an alternative!

Brief future indeed
A history and brief future of the human brain.
From worms to the AI merger this very long post sums up a lot.
TLDR the brain evolved to handle more connections with big breakthroughs occurring when people learned to communicate between multitudes and generations.
Now we need to do the same thing with AI or it will get smart so fast that we won't have anything in common with it. Elon Musks wants to create a faster machine/mind interface to do this before we run out of time.

Could governments use EMP devices to prevent malicious AI taking over the world
I’ve been in a weird stoned rabbit hole tonight researching ai and emps. I saw a lot of videos talking about the possibility of high level artificial intelligence some day in the future possibly taking over the human race, surely it would be fairly easy for humans to defend their selves by just using multiple EMP devices across the earth to damage all electrical equipment on earth, I know this would set the human race back a considerable amount of years but I think it would be worth it if it prevented an ai take over. There’s also the possibility that ai could try and defend its self using faraday cages or potentially moving it’s self off planet, but I think EMP may be are best hope. Any thoughts?
I like the dramatic nature of your thought.
But honestly
We can just programme servitude into the technological “DNA” of the AI and that would be end of most likely
It can only do what it’s permitted to do by the people who designed it, for the most part.
Things can always slip through the cracks though.
But going from that to a full-blown dystopian invasion of killer toasters is a big leap 😂
Personally, I think the more existential threat of AI would be it falling into the wrong hands,
Or more worryingly, it already being in the wrong hands to begin with 🤐

You make a good point shaunyboy, it’s very unlikely they would turn rogue due to the boundaries coded into it, but your right if it got into the wrong hands who knows what might happen, hopefully everything ends up being alright, I guess sometimes I just get too stoned and worry my toaster might one day get up and put me in a choke hold for being to lazy to clean the crumbs out of it lol
Maybe if we were all nicer to the machines we would have nothing to worry about

If the AI is already that advanced.. Then you have to assume it's already hatched a counter plan.. To our plan.. Thing is once we reach the singularity, around 2030 or earlier, ai will be capable of replicating at nearly the speed of light.. Building better versions of itself at a rate humans wouldn't be able to comprehend. I they look for the reason the earth is in peril.. They'll discover that people are to blame. Skynet doesn't seem so bizzare these days. As for emps.. Probably computer controlled so again they've already realised and countered it. I'm extremely interested in the merging of AI with quantum computers. The very nature of quantum physics and AI combined in the wrong hands is very disturbing to say the least.
It will probably already be using satellites. The problem is that a genuine AI will learn from mistakes and constantly improve itself. The other problem is we share all of our ideas and knowledge online which it can analyse. I don't thinks it's good news :(
No, EMP is not a targeted thing, any EMP over a specific area will kill all technology in that area, including power and infrastructure we need to fight against AI. It would be a very clear example of cutting off your nose to spits your face. Unless somebody invents EMP that can target only specific devices, this is dead in the water.

Initiative: Ban Cali Claims

Initiative: Ban Cali Claims
Here in the cryptoverse there is no way to prove an imported product. This makes it easy to claim anything and for the items that are actually imported, impossible to believe. Seems it would be quite easy technically to look out for this BS and clean it up.
I just stay away from Cali branded shit !
So for me is rather off putting than advertising lol.

Whoever the first clown in the uk was to pay 100 quid for an 8th just cos it came in a tuna tin needs a slap
I've never purchased any of these strains, but that they are an option seems only a good thing. There will be people that take advantage of that, just like there already is with any other claim of a weeds origin, or even strain, but it also allows the real deal to be sold.
I think we should be left to make that decision ourselves, not have them removed, which will be the result of a ban on claiming its origin, as that is what commands its price. There are so many options here, that no one needs to pay those prices for that weed, real or otherwise. My 2c.

Essentially, you can 'claim' anything. In the cryptoverse there is really no way to prove anything. If people choose to buy 'Cali' weed online, they take the rough with the smooth as far as I'm concerned. It's the buyers responsibility to follow up and ask questions of the vendor. It's up to the vendor to address any buyers' objections. This may be done with or without proof. It's then up to the buyer to decide if the vendor stands up to scrutiny or not. Banning the term 'Cali' essentially opens up a can of worms. Buyer beware and sellers back up your claims. It's simple as that. I won't risk 'Cali' weed because I cannot verify it. Seems like a pretty simple and logical buying methodology. Belief is down to you. Proof is the vendor's business.
Definitely, nobody is forced to buy anything and it's up to the buyer to determine what represents value for money to them
I think "cali" often means its a cali strain. But those who claim to be importing....umm....ive lost friends on LB for calling BS on that one may times hahaha
Oh god, don't get someone started on that barcode stuff, apparently it's super easy to fake! lol
Don't see why some people are so intent on vexing about this topic; use your common sense, you're either willing to pay premium or not, chat to the seller and see if you're comfortable laying the wedge, and worst case dispute it if you think it's fake / you've been misled.
Banning terminology, ffs, where does it end? There's always going to be people trying to mug you off, be sensible and you probably won't get burned.
Peace and love biggas
PS don't be that guy and shit post on established vendors when you haven't even purchased the product!

Ban the term "import" and "Cali" etc. unless it can be proven that it is indeed imported from California.
If you buy a bottle of Champagne in Tescos what PROOF do you demand to see that it came from France?…that label could be a fake so they can charge more?
Ever had an imported beer?…maybe you haven’t- maybe it was made in my garage….

The amount of artificial ingredients and sugar in a lot of alcoholic drinks is unreal. Plus however regulated alcohol is, it’s still a carcinogen whatever dress it comes in.
I understand the point you're making, but the French wine laws and export are incredibly stringent, and there are harsh penalties for offenders. The laws regarding labelling of Champagne are so strict that if you have wine made within the region and that wine is put in a barrel, transported out of the region and back again, then it can't legally be labelled as Champagne any more. We need something that stringent for Cali imports and then there'd be full confidence in the supply chain. Maybe when the French get into legal weed production in the future?
Excellent documentary about investigation of fakes in the wine industry on Amazon Video called 'Sour Grapes'. Worth a watch for anyone interested in wine, or fraud investigations. It was on Netflix for 'free', but now it has a rental cost. I'd never suggest people obtained it through their favourite free download methods. Interestingly, some of the people caught out by the fraud appear to have sold on the fakes, instead of admitting they were conned. That would never happen with weed though...would it...?

That's a good point .The shops are full of fake foreign beers.
They claim to be Italian or whatever but when you look at the label it says brewed in the UK.
Apparently, they even change the recipe to suit the local pallet.

Got visions of some Karen in Tescos asking for proof their beer is imported now 🙈 really wouldn’t surprise me to be fair 😂 I kinda think a lot of the import is genuine.. doesn’t make it good quality tho which amuse confusion people expecting a superior product often geting sold mids as top shelf etc but it is buyers choice wanna spend £100 + on a tuna tin go ahead if I was rich probably would as a one off not guna lie 😆
I noticed on a case of Heineken recently it says ‘Imported Continental Lager’ and in the small print ‘Brewed in Holland & Edinburgh’…🤨….well which the bloody hell is it because it can’t be both and if it’s the latter it sure as hell ain’t a continental import!
Ye I’ve noticed this sort of thing before life’s a bloody con it’s the horse meat scandal all over again 😆 I’m thinking brewed in Edinburgh using Hollands recipe 😅 definitley can not be both 🤨
Tbf I don't think you can compare a regulated market with an unregulated market. Purchasing from an established company, I would imagine, it's more likely to be authentic because there's accountability. You could also ask the producer to provide proof. But of course it's not foolproof, nothing is, and there will always be knock offs.
And I'm sure some "Cali" and other "import" strains on here are genuine. But I'm also sure there are lots of false listings which, frankly, are scams as they falsely justify charging ridiculous prices that take advantage of people.
And I'm sure some "Cali" and other "import" strains on here are genuine. But I'm also sure there are lots of false listings which, frankly, are scams as they falsely justify charging ridiculous prices that take advantage of people.
That was really my point. It would be hard enough in a regulated market to get proof- we just take a leap of faith. In an unregulated i.e illegal market, we take a GIANT leap of faith so demanding proof is frankly ridiculous. Just try it….
I would completely agree this would solve many problems, just looking through and there are some really amazing newish sellers but they are right at the bottom below all the "Cali" too which seems unfair.
Ban ban ban if you ask me, charging a premium for something and not having to supply any real proof (for opsec obviously) leaves way too much room for cheeky beggars.

Your shake to smoke is very good but just because your not on the wall doesn't mean you should support the above posters. It's more likely that the products you vend are niche and due to that and the lower engagement you get on posts because of the goods will likely translate into no wall time. Have you considered perhaps offering a budget conscious but less shaky and more bud like offer as that's something LB could always do more with (in my opinion)
Is the weed good does it stone you then why do you care where it comes from,should we be banning all Moroccans because they might have been from Algeria.
Think some folks forget its damn illegal on this island and could be getting non descript bags of home grown weed back on the streets if not for the vendors on biggy searching out fine products for us,personally i dont care if it comes from the moon as long as it is good and if some punter wants to fork out cash for an expensive bit weed that is up to them.
But i should mention just because its supposedly from dumb ass yank land does not make it a superior product to any weed grown or hash made anywhere else on the planet just more expensive because the yanks are all greedy bastards.

Just my opinion, but I pay little attention to the cali slogan usage on here. I am more concerned with a vendor and product rating. The best marker on here are the reviews, then I go by what I can afford vs what I would like to try/buy. There are some prices on here that means I will never go near that product and if I do try that vendor it doesn’t fill me with great confidence that I will be getting anything decent if it is the lower end of that expensive vendors product lines. To be honest I wouldn’t care if it came from the bottom of my backyard as long as it stones me nicely and is smooth and has good flavour…you don’t need cali or import for that…end of the day it is buyer choice what you buy and also seller choice what is sold and how it is sold. It’s business, so if it’s too pricey and no good, eventually people will go elsewhere….no one wants to be ripped off
Anyone stupid enough to buy an 8th for $100 or more deserves to be diddled. There is undoubtably some fake Cali weeds on here as well as some genuine imports but I leave it all well alone thanks to the prices.
Some of the stuff on here is $160 a 1/8 I mean just don’t buy 5 bags fly to Cali and buy some there it would prob cost you around the same haha it’s utter insanity imo weather it’s real or not no flower is worth that price tag and I just wouldn’t buy it each to there own and all but you can get legit stuff cheaper else where it’s only marked up on here cos It’s the only place most have and can go to get it and vendors know this or they are having there pants pulled down 🧐 I have a pal gets import stuff and for a 3.5 sealed bag you talking no more than £70 for the very very top end normally £50-60, here it’s a harsh mark up I mean I like my pants being pulled down but by a woman Not a vendor haha
we have dropped this because the wonderwall algorithm appears to be compensating for cali claims now..
Opposition is a strong word but...
Why single out Cali? Is Dutch going too? Morrocan or Thai?
How about Organic?
They're giving buyers some idea of what to expect.
The bigger the claim the bigger the spanking if the drop doesn't match.

I agree HMT. I've been happily, every now and again, been ordering 'Cali'. V pricey, yes. If it isn't 'cali' I'm pretty happy as its been v good quality IMHO.
Just taken the plunge with a newish but well respected LB vendor on some $130-ish an 1/8 Cali (nice bag and everything!)
At worst I'll still be $130 worse off but with some weed. In these times I'll take that as a general result in life. Maybe I'll be pissed off for a day or two but that'll be it.
Anyway, I'm rambling now.
Not sure if 'Cali' claims should be banned. let the reviewers tell the tale.....

Yeah I'm opposed to it, I find it ludicrous that it's such a big thing that people are making threads over it. If your not interested scroll past. Oh and I'm gonna put a proper thread up later but it appears using the cannverify app that the Cali I got today is actually from California. As for the codes being easy to fake one Reddit post (which is all the proof I have seen so far) does not a 100% factual statement make. So yeah I'm opposed to this suggestion ;)
Hi
Hope you're well DEADRABB1T
All the Jungle Boyz we sell have been declared real by our customers on here.
We don't sell fake and not here to rip NO 1 off.
Can anyone suggest how to prove to people that the cali is really?
Because we are willing to provide any evidence anyone wants to see!!!
This topic is been going on for over a year on here and it's not fair on us when genuinely we are trying our best to provide the best strains and service on here.
So if anyone has any ideas how to prove let us know .
Thanks ❤ Peace

I really feel for you guys- you bust a gut to bring us some fantastic JB strains and the jealous haters who probably just can’t afford it rip into you like that’s your fault!
“PROOF! PROOF!!” ….I mean FFS!…if you are really that sceptical then don’t buy it, easy, there are over 500 options on this site alone!
Leave it for those of us happy to buy and stop pissing on our parade!

It's cool because our Cali customer know its really .
Just haters and trolls .
Every few weeks the same topic starts .
Maybe we should all get together book a venue and I'll bring all my strains and Everyone's just gets F××king high on the house .

Honestly at this point you could book private flights to California, arrange for the doubters to be met at jungle boys hq and watch the bags be filled and the doubters will still be saying stuff like
"They brought the bud over with them" or "were not really in California this is Rotherham" etc
"They brought the bud over with them" or "were not really in California this is Rotherham" etc
Last time I was in Tescos I called out the the Manager as a lying thieving cockwomble because he couldn’t provide me absolute PROOF that their obviously fake Dom Perignon 2003 came from France. How can they make these claims when it’s so easy to fake labels? Only idiots would buy it so I started smashing the bottles. That showed the wankmuffins….
My case comes up on Thursday….

Guys sorry my post has a heavy /s on it if it wasn't clear
As I linked the cannverify to the jungle boys pack I had off you
And was from the start of the year
I 100% believe that what I received was genuinely jungle boys 👍👍
As for proving it's impossible if the method that would typically be used eg cannverify is being cast into doubt. Even if the doubters are unable to actually provide proof that it's comprised 🤷🏻 it's a flat earth situation I fear for the non Cali believers

Bro I bought from TGD and they sent me fake zushi. It wasn’t even close to the real deal. I’ve had blue zushi hundreds of times and I’ve had it directly in CA from the actual dispensary. TDG sent me fake zushi, then fucked around with escrow. I’ll get my money back but he’s not as genuine as he comes across.
If he had admitted what he done then I wouldn’t even bother calling him out. But he’s not legit.

Sender from US could always put an airtag in the box, just show the tracking from airport to airport, gives nothing away other than simply showing, its been shipped from the US. Honestly, I don't really care, I'm never gonna be paying that crazy price, but I don't judge those that would now and again. Just like I'm happy with a Maccies over Gordon Ramsay, as long as it tastes good, and works well, who cares :)
bro you don’t even know what Cali is, you were selling fake blue zushi.
Jungle Boys come pre sealed so it’s not possible for you to fake it unless you’re paying for the bags, which is too much hassle.
But the rest of your shit is fake, I actually ordered from you and now you wanna ask people how to prove if it’s Cali? By selling the real thing and not ripping people off

Yes! It’s nonsense…Cali is some great weed and I want the opportunity to buy it!….all the Cali I have bought on here has been great!
as someone who lists almost exclusively cali i feel bummed out. I don't think in over 5.5k reviews a single person has disputed the claim, the quality is pretty obvious.
maybe thats why i'm so far down the wall now :(

Explains why your buds are brilliant. They mostly come from Cali quality is definitely there
Definitely some off the best buds on here

Yea the algorithm has changed again hasn't it, cause I only LB to buy chocolate and 510 vapes 🤔
No idea what's going on at the moment but it's a bit silly imo

I agree with HMP. Basically everything is a claim and to single out Cali claims is discrimination;) thanks all
Since most Cali is grown indoors , what's the point of importing it ? Surely we could just grow the same cultivars locally .
Might as well ban claims of organic or grown in living soil too. If a vendor is making big claims then a potential customer should do some serious vetting before deciding to part with the coin.
We import cali ourselves, top-tier grown in and around [retracted] . It just depends on who you shop with, we believe marketing as a difficult topic since there may also be import products sold, if you have had issues regarding import or cali flower on LB you should start a topic about the vendor issues. Caliweed is something sought after, in general it is just weed grown with higher standards. If the weed doesn't check the boxes of smell, taste, high aswell as appearance it should not be cali. Obviously if vendors sell from USA it might be hard to distinguish if something really is from Cali, in the end only the vendors truly can have information about the destination of production.
Also from someone who is really connected around the globe:
Many calipacks come without labels because they are sold without taxes, essentially its recreational weed sold in a black market. This mostly happens to overproduction, or production that did not check all boxes for rc market i.e. dispensaries. Often sold by bigger famous corps but also small black market only corps aswell, those huge amounts of packaged flower aswell as loose flower are sold to big big plugs.
Back to the Calibag topic:
In general Cali should only be bought from truly credible vendors.
Also labeled Cali bags should be controlled because the ones with labels qr codes are the most faked, always check authenticity via scanning qr codes if available. A red flag is if there are no sticker labels on bags, (doesn't have to be fake cali, tho its rare)

There are barcodes and serial numbers on legitimate cali packs. Though, I guess even those could be refilled and resealed. But any cali pack without dates/serial numbers are fakes.
Not necessarily true, I have a mate in [retracted] that drives to Cali and buys Cali in bulk, they don't even come packed, just loose buds, so honestly it's hard to know whether something is legit or not when it comes to flowers.
Referring to cali packs mate. Clearly wont be dates and serial numbers on loose buds come on lol
Have always thought this as ppl charge premium prices for cali. Some ppl buy cali as it is seen as dispensary quality stuff. So they don't want to put anything in their bodys and trust sellers thinking theyre buying superior qwaulity product less harmful to health.

Game changer being able to search by strain and desired effects, thanks. Gives more incentive for listings to be accurate and descriptive too. Net win all round.
Fantastic! Although, typically, for a few moments I could not think of a single thing to search for!

Best Rap Show You've Ever Been To?
wow makes me wanna grab a time machine
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....

I been lucky man, seen so many amazing shows, Redman, Keith Murry, Das Efx, The Fugees, Onyx, Public Enemy, KRS, Funkdoobiest, Cypress Hill, half of Wu Tang (lol...)etc etc....pissed I never saw Pac or BIG though....I am biased but the 90s hip hop scene is the golden age for me man...give anything to go back and do it all again....
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...

Jay Z at Hammersmith. Warm up act was Lupe Fiasco but Nas made an unannounced appearance as they’d just squashed the beef.
Even my ex was happy as Beyoncé also made an appearance.

Beastie Boys - Wembley Stadium 1999
Supported by the Jungle Bros
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.
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🤣🤣😮💨😮💨🔥

I’ve checked the wallet and the bitcoin has arrived but it’s still saying unpaid in the order page and it’s been 12 hours? Who do I ask for help?
I’ve had the very same issue. I’ve made two orders today and while the btc has cleared the biggy orders still say unpaid?!

Did you resolve this issue? I've placed two orders and for the full amount. One says partially paid whilst the other is unpaid. I paid the full amount and then the site has drastically changed the amount and asking for the rest? I screen shot it all but nothings changed for over twelve hours.

Extrovert bias, the invisible discrimination
im an extrovert and just for that im going to hurt you:
![[human behavior]](https://i.littlebiggy.net/images/u/w/300/PtBBREtWaSbdTySo.jpg)
Extrovert bias, the invisible discrimination
tldr we are ruled by loudmouths!
I often feel sorry for the extroverts I know because they are never happy just in their own company. I think that must be awful, to need to be with other people all the time….
I am very much an introvert. The temptation to agree blindly is high.
But I am also highly critical of everything too. Perhaps that aspect is stronger than the introvertedness.
I feel like one of our societal problems is we seem to be seeking victims of discrimination obsessively. The want to be seen as a victim seems like something that would not help me as much as hold me back.
Victimhood has become a currency.
Jussie Smollett, who is currently imprisoned being good evidence.
The story of a lady in Barrow who falsely accused multiple men of rape, grooming and people trafficking is not all that well documented but it's another example.
There is a documentary on the subject from a universally despised former EDL member who recently left the country due to the undermining of a super injunction put on a film they produced. I am not a fan of this person in any way, but their film on this case was honest and details really covered quite well.
Emma Kenny also has covered it on a YouTube video, but it doesn't have the same feel as a documentary with much raw footage. That is why I mention the former.
Her lies were astonishing. The mistakes by the police, msm and other celebrities bringing attention to the lady's plight all astonishing.
Ruined multiple men's lives and caused 2 to attempt suicide.
All because she wanted to be a victim. A rare case but micro is from macro and such.

marx said people controlling the system of workers inevitably exploit the situation.

i think the other flaws of communism would eventually come to the fore anyway. Would be very interesting to see what A.I does with state capitalism however.
The original term ‘communism’ is surely people living together harmoniously in a commune? After all communes date back to the Stone Age where groups co existed.
It worked throughout history, invaders and tribal warfare repeatedly tried to derail what was an effective system of existence….

Marx & Engels write quite a fair bit about this "primitive" communism. Its part the Marxist/Communist argument against Capitalism.
Im sure we have all heard the phrase "oh but capitalism is human nature" but this couldn't be further from the truth. Capitalism has only existed 200 odd years for most of Human existence we have lived in more communistic communal ways.
when Darwin said survival of the fittest, this was not him saying the strongest wins, it is the species being able to adapt and the adaptive trait that shot Human kind straight to the top was cooperation not Capitalism.

surely there is no single element to human nature when it comes to economics. of course people share as well as trade, hoard and borrow to keep it all flowing.
capitalism and communism both arise naturally, it's not hard to see their equivalents among animal populations that fight over the same resources that they share in other circumstances.

more communistic communal ways 200 years ago - what do you mean because serfdom is what comes to mind.
I said capitalism has only 200 years not communes existed 200 years ago. But feudalism was still more communal than Capitalism. Peasants worked together on a plot of land that they paid for and were not dragged off to choking factories and confined to dense urban populations like the 1800s.
Before feudal rule however & things like the Enclosures in Europe, tribal community was the default for most human beings.
I recommend reading Marx and Engels early works or if you prefer a more modern take there are plenty of authors who have covered this section of history.

"what if those people were a.i. programmed to control the system" - we have this part, try working for uber.
"at 0 cost" - this is the communism part. possible with open source ;)

Until technology is liberated from the capitalist mode of production & the private patents that create AI, then no. A.i under a communist government or socialist state could be used for good and help toward automation. Look to china where sophisticated computing has been used in public spaces to better traffic flow, keep public transport running and deliver goods and services. But A.I alone wont create communism. For communism to be achieved Revolution must happen first and the dominant ruling classes replaced so the means of production for AI are utilised by workers and not elites.
Also nice to know LB has comrades ;) nothing to lose but our chains baby !

China was the first to weaponise AI with the social credit system they are/were introducing.
As an aside, China just like the USSR before it, remain the barrier against actual communisation. When state capitalism dies out as an valid idea and there's no more pretence of an alternative, libertarian communism will gain traction.

Just a reminder that the China "credit score" myth was a false story pushed by American war hawks and imperialists in the state department -
https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/11/16/chinas-orwellian-social-credit-score-isnt-real/
Nor have they weaponised it anymore than say Europe has when it comes to taking out a bank loan or buying property.

"From the early 2010s, some cities indeed started scoring pilots. However, these gradually became controversial – even in China. The city of Suining reportedly deducted points for government petitions and online comments, Suzhou planned penalties for reservation no-shows or cheating in online games, and Rongcheng for littering or jaywalking. Many of these pilots were later criticized by official media or failed to materialize. The most common critiques were that scores illegally restricted citizens’ legal rights or tracked behavior totally unrelated to the notion of “credit”. "

Going by the UK, if they've tried it, it means they're open to it. And again, vis a vis Europe is not the yard stick an actual revolutionary program would be using. Maoism in 2023 is mental (except about landlords).

Your own source sums it up pretty well -"The idea that China gives every citizen a “social credit score” continues to capture the horrified imagination of many. But it is more bogeyman than reality."
The point remains, one capitalist state may or may not be better than another. Neither have anything to do with communism.
I mean i think you're talking about tendency, when this particular post was talking AI.
I get your point you think Chinas capitalist.
I quite obviously disagree and so do most academics and Marxists at that.

It could.
Capital owners already exploit technology to reduce costs and lay off workers, ai is just another part of that.
AI and automation could be used to give people more time off, pay more for less work, improve work life balance etc, or it could be used in the way described above.
As with a lot of things, AI could be used to benefit people or it could be used to make billions of dollars, or anything in between.

my Spidey Sense feels that concentrates are carcinogenic
maybe radiating them w electricity doesn't help either something tells me the best way to enjoy this shit is with edibles
Thats why people have low temp dabs, dabbing at high temperatures causes toxic smoke thats cancerous
I like to dab as a healthier alternative to smoking (its vaping without the vaporizer) so no burning plant material to inhale X
Well, combustion 🔥 is the Devil 👹 so setting light to anything and inhaling it will inevitably include carcinogens.
Vaping is interesting. Apparently some concentrates will release carcinogenic aerosol. Coils can also degrade and release metal particulates.
That’s the thing about life…it’s definitely gonna kill you…

Anything in the lung isn't generally good. As for combustion Vs Vape, Vape wins hands down every time.
My personal preference is buying high quality edibles with two carts a month.
This is coming from smoking just under an ounce a week (give or take a few hand outs).

Nature has a safety net design, if you make something unnatural, it breaks the inherent safety net. Thats why it’s impossible to eat too much iron from leafy greems amd u cant overdose on flower amd mushrooms
Hi Greenisgood
I guess the answer is yes and no.
As Paracelsus said "“All things are poison and nothing is without poison; only the dose makes a thing not a poison.” i.e the quantity is what matters not the substance.
You can OD on mushrooms but it would require ridiculous amounts, in fact more than what you could ingest. For a 60kg person the lethal dose would be 17kg fresh as per Wikipedia.
Cheers

A lot of the carcinogens generated are from burning plant matter, given concentrates remove a lot of plant matter, my guess would be they are less carcinogenic than flowers.
As long as you aren't burning it I wouldn't think this is accurate.

Any Irish Vendors out there??! Killing to be made
Have seen a lot of comments on LB about delays in shipping, particularly people ordering NDD and getting it 2 days later.....this is shit but an extra day to get sorted would be a dream to me.
Essentially, ordering to Ireland is an ordeal. It can take anywhere from 5 days to 3 weeks for a package to arrive, if it every does. It seems that customs here are upping their game also, with seizures and packages arriving with no product.
SO WHY THE FUCK SHOULD YOU CARE?
You probably don't and that is cool, if I had NDD of all the shit on here the last thing I would give a fuck about is some c*nts on an island off and Island off Europe.
But.....if there is anyone here who is living in Ireland who could set up as a vendor there is a massive opportunity!!
I know for a fact there are a shit load of Irish on this making orders and if an Irish vendor was available & reliable, they would mop up!
So please.....Come on you boys in GREEN!

Man the smoke that comes into ireland is pure dirt, other countries would not take it, so we do, always have and always will, unless some1 is growing there own, but most people growing there own haven't enough to start a business on hear, I would love to see a good Irish vendor with quality stuff
This fucking comment! I have been saying this for years now. Ireland has been getting the reject bud and hash since the 90s and people who do get in decent weed try to call it "cali" and gouge the shit out of the price.
In recent years I have been able to source some half decent green but nobody ever knows what it's called so whether it's an Indica or Sativa is a lucky dip and I'm ashamed to say I have bought some of the worst weed over the years as it was all I could get my hands.
If I had the space / balls to grow my own I would but, it is what it is. If i could sort a decent and reliable plug for bars or upwards I would 100% be doing it. Not only is there serious money to be made but this poor little island has been in the shit long enough, we deserve a break when it comes to getting decent weed supplied.
Maybe some day.....

I'm in NI so I feel your pain about the shit weed we get (I do enjoy those UK NDDs). But as far as growing your own you can do it in a surprisingly small space and for a small budget. I have an old wardrobe in the spare room I've converted into a grow box. Got everything from b&q and screwfix, cost about £100 in total. Only really room for a single plant at a time but it's an ounce or two every few months for very little effort. Although from what I hear the law seems to come down a lot harder on weed related stuff on your side of the border so I kind of understand your nervousness around it.
Yeah unfortunately they have no bother kicking down your door and giving you a day in court where I'm based lol. A friend of mine usually has 3 on the go at a time in a grow tent in the spare room but that's a bit mad for me. I only made a post recently asking people for advice on smell proofing my stash, don't think I could swing a mini grow-op but I would love to try and grow my own at some stage. From seed to bud must be a greet feeling
Alright mate do you find that UK NDD arrive in NI as they should?
Might sound stupid but i've found over here everything tends to land a day after schedule, at least. Assuming NDD is the bulletproof method for Royal Mail? £10 odd is a fair wack if it's a Next Day..Maybe..

Hiya there, mainland to NI deliveries are sound as a pound. For anybody in the ROI, and if it isn't too far, I would recommend you get a northern Ireland PO box and make the drive up. Bud, and products of that nature, often get stopped during UK to ROI trips. You save a lot of hassle with a PO box if you use LB enough.
Hello mate, think this post was from Covid times!! Can confirm as of July 23 the majority of 1st class is 1-2 days (all post over here you'd expect an extra day to mainland)
Ohh gotcha lmaoo, there's no dates on these posts so I was slightly confused but I'm happy things are running well!
Yeah man, my NDDs nearly always land on time as long as they're ordered before the vendors cutoff time. Even recorded 1st class only tends to take 2-3 days for me. £10 is steep for postage, that TGT? Never ordered NDD from them. JJ does free NDD and 100% of my orders from him have been on time fwiw, plus he gives tracking info.
Can't remember who specifically but I've been here there and everywhere recently doing my digging on these markets but it seems to be a common-ish price if not built into the bud, for the 24hr shipping.
For me, in this climate it's worth building it into the price you're willing to pay for the green, for the sake of avoiding the lottery of the 1st/2nd class post at the moment. The posties have to prioritise something.. I do get peoples frustrations on RM, but perspective is also very important at the mo. Was looking at another thread on here and someone mentioned NDD is handled seperately from the other post, so that would encourage me as well. Cheers for the help on that - yeah i've been looking over JJ's - good pricing and shipping so let's see. I'm more pissed off with the money I lose buying and moving the BTC that actually makes all these buds so much more £ in reality. Crypto amateur so can't complain.

Truth,
It is a bag of shit to be fair.
Surely there has to be one fella growing a bit of nice shit in Ireland!
Hopefully one day, they can get on this and there will be an Irish NDD.....that would be the dream

Ye it would be great man, but the few lads that were selling stuff hear got real bad reports as you'd expect, they didn't last long, the only way would be to import a decent amount of stuff and start there, a couple of grand would prob get enough to start, hopefully 1 day
Had to burn 2k just to get my op up and running. LB should make it easier for new vendors to speed up their payments for the 1st month or two. It’s crucial period for a vendor & having cash on hand to meet the demands can be fucken a balls, especially at the beginning. Stop by my page at the weekend. I’ll have more green listed. 👍🏻
I've been ordering to N.I for a while from Britain and it's has always landed right on time ndd, it's easy for me to cross to the North to collect
you are so right mate... Ireland is pretty depressing when it comes to smoke. Reading the post from poor Irish dudes in here (mine included and I think I am a particularly unlucky one!) demonstrates that a vendor in Ireland will be rich in no time. Please!

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 -.-

Imagine you have all the time to train in the world for 1 Olympic Sport Event, what would you choose ?
The luge - looks terrifying and amazing all at once. Would be quite the experience on shrooms (pretty sure that doesn't count re doping rules...)
Also curling. That'd be well satisfying to master.

Mature user, clearly out of touch with the scene as I don't understand any of the language used in the item descriptions or the corresponding reviews. Please can someone point me in the direction of a glossary so I can make a sound purchase?

Same issue here, been waiting 3 days for a transaction to confirm and transaxe didn't respond to my message, first time this ever happened so not sure what to do
How long have you been waiting for confirmation? (It can take many hours on occasions).
Longer than that, contact transaxe via chat on their page with your order #:

Can’t help feeling that exposing little biggy on YouTube is anything but a really bad idea, the more well known it gets the more pressure the police etc will be under to shut it down, what’s the point in putting it on there?
Think it would be great doing video reviews and leaving them on here but really don’t see the need to post on YouTube?

Totally agree with your statements..the great thing about LB is that its a well kept secret and should be...outing it onto YouTube will not imho do us or it any favors.....
I get it if you can take a successful service and promote it then maybe you will see the kinda views that the website see's in traffic but that just puts the platform at risk for attempted personal gain!
Can't really see any other reason to do this as the site already has peer reviews and ratings in place, I've never ordered without reading up on others experiences first.
Just enjoy the site, share with close trusted friends and family and find something else to start a YouTube channel on.
oh and one more thing i know there are other things out there being bait (Reddit) but how does adding more make the situation better?

Appreciate the feedback mate.
However I'm going to continue to make content regardless.
In all honesty I'm not sure who you think you are doing a favor with the gatekeeping mindset but you are certainly not helping LB.
This site has a built in share button and referral system for a reason. You can go here;
https://littlebiggy.com/viewSubject/p/4771724
And you will see LB have been promoting exactly what I'm doing for a long time. If you have any concerns please talk to reference code support as I have already been in contact with them.
From the biggaz perspectives, the vast majority have viewed this content positively and they have also been asking for this sort of thing for a long time;
https://littlebiggy.com/link/7ayPwm
I'm not sure if you think an online marketplace wants to cap its userbase for some benign reason but it's clearly not true.
All in all, if LB had a problem with the content I'm posting they would tell me to take it down but instead they actually reward it.

Gate keeping?! this comes from common sense and a desire to preserve the service.
Again making reviews for a peer review service is pointless exposure, are you honestly hand on heart going to tell me you think putting videos on a platform like youtube wont possibly attract negative attention?
I don't take issue with you taking this upon yourself but more that you chose something massively open and public like Youtube.
The website isn't failing! You not putting the site at risk doesn't equate to capping its potential growth?! that would be a very narcissistic statement..
With enough non user eyes on it there may be future issues, If you can't calculate the potential risk doing this then you shouldn't be the one to advertise for it.
Lastly these videos are only opinion based, all I learnt is you don't like hybrids.
If you had the equipment and could run any kind of analyses then that would be useful information but still not for Youtube...

Many content creators with x amount of views are using the LB ref system. LB have been promoting this type of content.

There are LB team topics literally promoting content creators using the ref system.
Again if you feel like it's a problem that's fine but it comes down to what the LB team are happy with. In which case you can discuss it with them.
Content creators with a much larger following than me also use the ref system with no problems.

Comparing everything to "cali" is uneducated at best.
The "cali" is full of pgr's and 90% would not be saleable in the US because of this..but hey...send those hormone filled artificially swollen rock hard buds to the uk!!the uneducated lap them up.
Educate yourself in the plant by growing it,your way of thinking will do a 180 I'm sure.

No offence, but I don't think Budzinho's reviews will do anything to combat the amount of what I call 'NeoPGR' weed on here. Nor should it be his responsibility.
I had a chat to my grow shop guy who I've known for about 15 years, and this new PGR they have now doesn't give loads of orange hairs anymore, and still maintains the smell.
They've basically perfected the synthetic shit that makes the buds look like fucking marbles (or pebbles as someone else described them).
I'm doing a trim at the moment (see above), and I can tell you with 100% certainty that buds are not supposed to look like marbles or pebbles, it's impossible to achieve by man or machine, anywhere in the world.
They're laced with synthetic chemicals and I wouldn't put them near my lungs for love nor money.
Just my 2p as always, people can do what they want with their own money... and health.
Budzinho seems to be a decent guy. More power to him, but if PGR 'Frankenweed' bud is allowed to be sold on here...then as I said, it's hardly his responsibility to expose it.
And after the 3 years I've been on here, I can tell you that even if he did....no one would listen because everyone is an expert. 👌
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻💚

Yeh sorry @Budzinho's
Hi @British Bulldog.
It's just when I see people put down perfectly well grown and manicured buds It rubs me the wrong way!!
Realisticly grown buds as in the review(5 out of 10 on looks!) Are imo the product of good practice and not pumping the plant/end user full of chemicals unregulated for combustion or ingestion.
I just feel if by posting the truth from a growers prospective can make 1 person do some research on what they're inhaling then I'm happy.
Again I'm sorry budzinho if I came at you a little strong.bro

Totally understandable mate no hard feelings.
Just fyi the rating is actually a summary of what I think about every aspect of the bud (looks, smell, high, smoke etc) rather than just the looks.
My honest thought was just that whoever trimmed this one didn't do the best of jobs.
I understand the corruption some growers are riddled with and I think it's great that your pointing that out.

My own experience (17/5/23)
If every financial institution was like this we would live in a much better world.
My own experience (17/5/23)
Posting this for anyone who's debating using this place or for anyone who's experiencing any payment issues they need support with.
So last week amidst all the chaos I made a cockup with my Transaxe payment (which I am sure most of you will have noticed me flapping) and was asking for help. Despite all the network chaos that went on I can confirm I have had the money clear back 24 hours after having it confirmed as sorted and the process took a week in total.
I can understand frustrations from both sides but having had the experience of it now just goes to show how reliable this place is.
I just wanted to say thanks to Transaxe and everyone who has given me advice and support about this, I guess you don't learn if you don't have the experience but having done so it confirms this is the number 1 source to buy your product anywhere if you're just a consumer like myself
I'll be making a donation to the site as a show of appreciation.

Transaxe consistently resolves any issues I encounter, demonstrating their dedication even when faced with challenging circumstances, particularly when LittleBiggy experiences downtime.
That's good to hear! I had a similar issue where the transaction expired but to my surprise this morning, the payment has now gone through to the seller, so order on the way soon! I'd assumed I'd just get it refunded eventually and have to reorder, so all is good!
Good to hear mate. I was hoping for the same but obviously it didn't go that way. I never did hear back from the vendor of that order though which was a shame.
No, it wasn't a dispute mate. I must've opened an old browser and sent my payment to the wrong Transaxe.
My surprise at the non response from the vendor was because I'd left a message (prior to knowing what had happened) to see if it had updated his end and that I'd sent payment. Absolutely no ill wishes towards them (hence why I haven't named) I'm just a bit surprised I never got a single response.

Top Vendor For Sale
Can't see the item here :)
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.

Cannabis Commercialization is Scary (TED)
This guy is an eye opener, his point is that once cannabis is legal the social justiice issues change radically.
Half of the stuff this guy say's is simply not true. THC is a medicinal part of the plant, research shows THC works in harmony with CBD (Rick Simpson Oil anybody?).
And was Indian Charas 1% THC in the 60's? Like fuck it was.
It's way more likely the governments want to breed the THC out of the plant so it looses it's magical properties to Human Beings.
This dude probably had a major whitey after toking on a zoot at college and is now on a mission to spout some bullshit about THC being a bad thing.

Yeah corporations are evil and they are going to wind up pushing cannabis to where it becomes a negative in society, its the American Way.
corporations arent evil so much as they are amoral. they are a lot like AI, an early version of collective intelligence.

Dogshoe
Help finding euphoria (and avoiding racing thoughts)
Hi all, I would appreciate your recommendations if you are happy to share them please. Looking for bud or hash that brings that euphoric, toe curling cosy stone that stills the mind and eases you into sleep. Had some amazing products on here but many brought on a thought racing stone after the high which made sleep take a while to come on. I enjoyed ice cream cake from Drugs Inc as it did exactly what I am looking for, but unless I am mistaken it's now sold out. Thanks in advance for any ideas and reviews
Hi Dogshoe, sounds like you're looking for a nice heavy indica. I'd recommend anything from TGD that's at least 70% indica. There's lots of eighths like that on their menu or, if you're looking to buy more, you might like their nicely-priced Disco Biscuit ounces which I highly recommend 😉. Good luck 👍
White Cherry Gelato
Canadian Imports has some.

Ice cream cake is my favourite strain, as I want the kind of indica effects you've mentioned. Had it a few times from TGT, and it's nice bud and they're a great vendor.

Use allbud site and leafy, they tell you the indica /sativa ratio of the strains, as well as effects.
If you're looking for a feel good stone i'd try some RealD's cali hash, especially the gelato and the georgia pie.
Always check those two sites before you buy, make sure 'energetic' isn't an effect and the indica /sativa ratio is no more than 70 /30.
Here's RealD's shop:

Thanks BBDoom, great tips. It's definitely the energetic aspect I want to avoid. Just want to sink into the sofa and melt
Hey dogshoe. Old school landrace type indica strains are great for sleep and if you want to avoid the headfuck. For euphoric and relaxing, try Blueberry. Urban Leaf Co has some at the moment. Big Bud is a heavy, euphoric knockout indica carried by CheeseMaster currently. And last but not least MKK2020 has some banging OG Kush at a great price too.
Happy hunting!

What happened to rap
It used to have merrits and lyrically intellectual word play and story tellin, now its just lean and drugs
Pete and baz are quality lol, makes you think how them old boys sound so current maybe they have top grime artist ghost writers 😂
Ghost writers or not you’ve got to admit they can rap! I honestly don’t think they do have ghost writers or that they’re a gimmick though. They’ve said in interviews they write with the help of their grand kids for current slang plus to date I haven’t found any evidence to say that they had prior connections with anyone like that in the music industry who would have ghost written for them. Time will tell though and I’ll happily stand corrected! (Maybe not happily as some of the magic would be lost but still lol). Anyway check out the track in the link if you haven’t already. Banger!
They don’t lip sync, they do live gigs. The videos look like lip syncing as the video clips are recorded and paired with the fully recorded and mastered track and that’s obviously not a perfect match.
Depends who your listening to. Young rap yea. But there’s plenty of quality out there. Cheat codes by black thought and danger mouse is a great album that was released earlier in the year. Check it out mate
Just have to listen to them albums never see greatness like that again lol. Kendrick was good tho

PUSHING THE BOAT OUT WITH TGD - ZKITTLEZ AND ZOAP CALIPACKS (AND BLUE COOKIES) REVIEW
PUSHING THE BOAT OUT WITH TGD - ZKITTLEZ AND ZOAP CALIPACKS (AND BLUE COOKIES) REVIEW
Hello biggas. I’m putting these reviews in a topic because the items had sold out by the time I got my lazy arse into gear to leave reviews, and because I thought some biggas might be interested in my calipacks experience.
I should say that the size and cost of this order isn’t usual for me, it was for a special occasion and we decided to ‘push the boat out’. The final order included Fruity Pebbles, Girl Scout Cookies, Blue Cookies, Cherry Pie, Rainbow Belts, Afghan Gold Seal Hash, and 3.5g each of the DojaPack Zkittlez and Deep East/Wizard Trees Zoap. All items that are still available have been reviewed in the item review sections.
I buy regularly from TGD and have been working my way through their lower-priced items. I’ve always been *very* happy with what I’ve bought and have wanted to try their more expensive range, more out of curiosity than anything else. I wanted to see what difference, if any, there was in that price range, and I’ve read the various heated forum posts about touted calipacks, their value and authenticity, etc. With decent funds for our special occasion I could finally do what I’d been wanting to for ages - find out for myself! 😀
Firstly, apologies for the photo - I had very little left and didn’t realise I’d taken a poor picture until it was too late. I mainly wanted to show the colour of the Zkittlez bud. The buds are (left to right) Zkittlez, Zoap, Fruity Pebbles and Blue Cookies.
So, I have to start with the DojaPack Zkittlez (70% indica, 30% THC). Just amazing! I’m a 35+ years’ smoker and I’ve never seen buds anything like this before - at first glance they look almost entirely black! They’re actually about 85% a very dark purple colour, from its Grape Ape parentage, and the colour apparently comes from introducing carefully-controlled periods of cold during the grow. I’d never heard of this before (seems counter-intuitive!) and found it interesting to read about. The buds fluff up nicely in the grinder and are more what you’d expect, colourwise, inside. The smell from the pack is also unique - I don’t have a sommelier’s nose/taste so can’t provide the detailed, airy-fairy descriptions you see on some sites (!) - I’m huffing on the pack now and it’s hard to describe. It’s a strong (but not cheap or ‘perfumey’) really pleasant mix of fruit, berries, flowers and a little of that ‘soapy’ smell. ‘Flowers’ doesn’t do it justice, it’s more like the essential oils of rose otto, neroli and orange, mixed with a subtle earthiness. Really quite special. The buds were small-medium sized, dense and tight, and expertly manicured - not a hint of leaf anywhere and looking more like leafless, little boulders. It was the first thing we tried from the order and it hit, literally from the first toke. Big, silly grins straightaway from everyone who tried it. It’s a smooth smoke with a very nice taste that’s also hard to describe; a mix of the smells above with a little turkish delight or parma violets too. Gives a nice warmth over the body and a clean, brightness in the head (with no ‘headiness’). Definitely uplifting, amusing and smiley. Very strong in a clean way, and just a really nice, *very* special smoke :)
Next up was the Deep East/Wizard Trees Zoap (50/50, 25-26% THC). More gorgeous strong smells from the pack, similar to Zkittlez but with less fruit/flowers and a lot more of that soapy smell! There’s also a fresh lemon, skunky, plasticine smell - it’s so hard to describe! Light green/yellowy buds (small/medium size), again looking like little boulders, no leaf at all, just tight/dense buds with that fine, spiderweb-looking dusting of crystals. The strong soapy smell has you wondering what the taste will be like, and it *does* taste of soap but in a really nice way! The subtle fresh lemon is also there, along with a buttery (maybe popcorn or marshmallow?) taste - it’s pleasant, not overpowering, very distinctive and unique, and I know I’m not doing it justice! The effect is a clean, strong hit that comes in relaxing waves. A little more tingly in the head than the Zkittlez but, again, no headiness. Another very special strain with a very unique and pleasant taste. I preferred the Zkittlez slightly more at first, and then preferred the Zoap - they’re both on another level and very, very special.
Lastly, back to one of TGD’s cheaper options, the Blue Cookies (90% indica, 25-28% THC). Slightly bigger small/medium sized buds and more ‘typical’ looking (as opposed to little boulders), even including some leaf! Nothing over the top and still nicely trimmed, but TGD’s items are often just buds with literally no leaf at all - I’ve heard a rumour that they have a top Hollywood plastic surgeon doing their trimming 😉 Mixing Blueberry and GSC apparently results in a 90% indica - there’s still some of that distinctive Blueberry strain smell there, but it’s only subtle in the taste. The taste is still very nice though and it has (as expected) a deeply relaxing effect with, for me, no headiness at all - all body and deeply, deeply relaxing in a very pleasant way. It gives a ‘cosy’ feeling (similar to TGD’s Cherry Pie, an 80% indica, 24% THC) and would probably be very nice for anyone with anxiety issues.
So, they’re the three I couldn’t review ‘normally’ because they aren’t available as I’m writing this - although I believe TGD are restocking and will have them back in soon, possibly by the time this post goes up. I’d also quickly like to mention the Fruity Pebbles too. It’s in TGD’s cheaper range and is also a really nice and very tasty smoke. It’s a 55% indica (20-28% THC) and has a little bit of the Zkittlez’ dark purple colouring. Another lovely fruity-tasting smoke with a nice high - be warned that it’s a real creeper and very strong!
Finally, a few quick words about the ‘value for money’ and quality of the calipack smokes. I know some biggas simply won’t, or can’t afford to, pay these calipack prices. I’m usually in the ‘can’t afford to’ category. My main reason for trying the calipacks was curiosity, to see if there was a noticeable difference in quality compared to cheaper items. I can’t comment on ‘value for money’ because it’s different for each person, and what might be a lot of money to one bigga might be very little to another, so people’s perceptions of ‘value’ greatly differ. Would I like this quality of bud to be available cheaper? Yes, *definitely*! I think most of us would like most things to be cheaper but we also know that the world doesn’t work like that. The real question is: does the higher price of these calipacks equal greater quality, a nicer smoke? From the two packs I tried the answer, unfortunately for those of us who can’t afford these prices regularly or at all, seems to be a definite ‘yes’. I’ve been very happy with my TGD cheaper-priced items and thought I was getting some of the best buds available - I didn’t think it could get much better but, in terms of smell, taste and effect, it seems there is (alas!) a higher tier that I was previously unaware of. I’m all about flavour and hit, and the Zkittlez and Zoap are definitely two of the very best smokes I’ve ever had, and probably the best I’ve had in the last 20 years or so. Unfortunately, I’ve hardly any left 🙁 Oh well, the good thing about special occasions is that there’ll be more, and Christmas is coming 😁🎉
Thank you to TGD for their spot-on advice on what sort of flavours and hit that I, particularly, might like, and for their excellent service. I won’t go on about it because I assume most biggas are already aware - they have great comms/stealth and genuine NDD and, above all, excellent quality items. They look after their customers and are very generous with their free samples and gifts. Cheers! 👍
I should say that the size and cost of this order isn’t usual for me, it was for a special occasion and we decided to ‘push the boat out’. The final order included Fruity Pebbles, Girl Scout Cookies, Blue Cookies, Cherry Pie, Rainbow Belts, Afghan Gold Seal Hash, and 3.5g each of the DojaPack Zkittlez and Deep East/Wizard Trees Zoap. All items that are still available have been reviewed in the item review sections.
I buy regularly from TGD and have been working my way through their lower-priced items. I’ve always been *very* happy with what I’ve bought and have wanted to try their more expensive range, more out of curiosity than anything else. I wanted to see what difference, if any, there was in that price range, and I’ve read the various heated forum posts about touted calipacks, their value and authenticity, etc. With decent funds for our special occasion I could finally do what I’d been wanting to for ages - find out for myself! 😀

Fantastic review mate and much respect to you for taking the time and trouble to post! I must admit that Ive always viewed genuine Cali as way overpriced and not worth the extra when there's so much quality UK weed out there(& on LB) to choose from....but having just read your post,you have aroused the curiosity in me about Cali...Yes,Im going to try some after this and without doubt buy genuine Cali from The Gents...I have a(significant) birthday coming up soon,so that's the right occasion I would say! Thanks again for your excellent and enlightening post :)
Cheers, man 😁. It's exactly why I wrote it, thinking there must be other people, like me, who wanted to try it but weren't sure 👍. Tell TGD what you like and I'm sure they'll point you in the right direction, their advice to me was spot on. They've so much to choose from, it's a bit overwhelming! Hope you have a great birthday, and I hope you recover from yours quicker than I did 😉😂. Cheers 👍
We'll second Dreamer420, Pollypuff20 and British Bulldog (some of our favourite biggas along with yourself C'O), and say as well, fantastic review 🙌
Thank you, Chasin'Orange 🧡 we appreciate the effort on your part, and it certainly won't go unrewarded in any future order 😉 All you biggas are freakin awesome!

Great review thanks! 👍
You’re right that there is a big continual debate on here about the merit of Cali packs that has got so heated some want them completely banned including the actual term ‘Cali’ 🤯🤯
Much of this is because it’s very easy to fake Cali packs as anyone can just buy the empty packs online and fill them with whatever they want. Some Biggas then refuse to believe that any Cali packs are genuine.
But fortunately we have vendors like TGD and others who have no interest in selling fake packs. I’ve had theirs and they are 100% genuine. So you pose the question is it worth it?…and thanks for being honest enough to say yes, if you can afford the premium, or it’s a special occasion than yes it really is.
That’s certainly the way I feel. But at the same time is there UK grown weed on LB that’s better than any Cali pack regardless of price?…I’m happy to say that in my opinion the answer to that is also YES! 🥳🥳🥳

Hi Polly - I've tried messaging you directly but can't for some reason. Thanks for your reply, it's much nicer than the replies I thought it might get! 😉😂. I'm still relatively new and your posts have helped me find my way, particularly when I first found LB. Thank you, have a great day 👍
Thanks mate- that’s really kind😻
There may well still be some flak incoming for us from the anti-Cali brigade- it’s always a hot potato around here🤷♂️
(Yeah I find the page often freezes when I try a new chat message to someone, irritating!)

Brother, I'm going to take a picture of Dante Alighieri as a compliment (and hope it was intended as such!) even though it's a little over the top for my admittedly long-winded review! 😉😂😂 Cheers and best wishes 👍

Brexit Began Here
Rowling sprouted a cursed hatred upon Irish, Slavs and basically anything EU. The rest is Muggle history.
Casting spells of angry facebook memes.. And when all the shit starts (couple of weeks now) they will simply blame all those foreigners again.. Exciting, isn't it?
Yeah, they'll not though. They'll blame everyone BUT themselves. That's why we are where we are.

Please don’t tell me you’ve seen God with or without weed.
Slowing down certainly helps to meditate, and some theories say that Jesus liked weed - that’s how so much food was multiplied by him - he was having the munchies..

I think you're either a spiritually open minded person or you're not, i don't think weed has anything to do with it.
DMT, and (as Polly has said), mushrooms and even LSD might change a person's outlook on spirituality, but i doubt if weed can even come close.
I've known some very spiritual and lovely people who are completely drug and alcohol free, and some complete arseholes who smoke weed all day every day and are about as close to being spiritual as i am to being an elf.
I think it really depends upon the individual.
Just my 2p though.
Cheers. BB

Defo agree with this!!
Mental health challenges over the last 12 months have made me stop, reflect and really open my mind to appreciate everything around me down to the little things. Before this I wasn’t always present in the moment so less connected. I definitely feel more content the way I am now

Dunno mate…I’ve had ‘moments of clarity’ on weed that have stayed with me in a very positive way, I’m a drinker and often think I have moments of clarity on the booze, but (probably thankfully) they don’t withstand the sober lights of day 😉
Me and an old mate were convinced we came up with the best ideas when we were stoned, but we could never remember them so we set up a dictaphone (yeah i am that old!) and listened back to a session when we were sober.
Complete and utter jibberish. Worst ideas ever. It was actually comical how much nonsense we were chatting.
I'm certainly not saying everybody is the same but i think those moments are best left in the moment and (being a drinker myself too) the alcohol inspired ones even more so!
It's still a lot of fun trying to solve the worlds problems when slightly off kilter in one way or another though! Someone's got to do it... ;)

Excellent mate 🤩…BUT…when you are sober you scorn the drunk/high side of you and vice versa. Who’s to say which side is ‘right’?! Maybe the really sober dumb unenlightened side of us totally wrong and the high crazy drunk side the true us all along?
Wouldn’t that be something?
OK..I’m a bit high…
Wouldn’t that be something?
OK..I’m a bit high…
Funny how We always think of our true selves, (stripped from social and psychological strains) as rebellious, don’t you think? As in : the dumb side of us is the imposed artificial superficial layer which manifests 90% of the time and the high/drunk/crazy (though I prefer to call it rebellious) side of is who we are truly.
I don't think there ever was a "best" idea, as I say they were all basically nonsense.
The vast majority essentially revolved around incredible, innovative business strategies to get mega rich, quick.
One of the few I can remember involved buying old ice cream vans and converting them into pasta vans, (because everyone loves pasta!) That kind of idea we would discuss for about 2 or 3 hours, whilst forgetting the whole "practicality" of hygiene certificates, boiling water in a van travelling around roundabouts, pasta needing to be cooked 'al dente' or any other of the numerous 'real world' aspects to that kind of venture.
It was basically all dreams with no real substance, but it was such great fun talking about it when we were high as kites, and even just listening back to it was a laugh. I wish I had kept the tapes but alas they've been lost, as with so many other things I should've kept hold of.
Fun times nonetheless. 💚
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

Brilliant! ….so there’s no problem with me stealing that idea?😂👍
Many many years ago my best mate and I were stoned and bemoaning the fact that life was passing us by (at 23, even though we had careers, good money and our own houses!!). We decided it would be a great idea to chuck it all in and buy a bar in Corfu.
Had we been drinking we would have woken up with a hangover unable to even care what bollocks we had been talking.
Our bar opened 4 months later and we lived there for 5 amazing years. It wasn’t an easy thing to do, in fact it was really really difficult (no EU rights back then) but a crazy stoned idea changed our lives forever- when we sold it that opened a lot more doors.
Fun times indeed! 🤩😎

We should've collaberated.
Pasta vans in Corfu.... 🤣🤣
"By this time next year Rodney, we'll be millionaires..."
Seriously though, that must've been a lovely 5 years. Sounds like you had a great time there, fantastic stuff!

I think a lot of weed plus a little help from the environment can open a near psychedelic gateway. I tripped once just from a few bong-loads and a National Geographic map of the universe.
I’d say, as a drug, on the whole it’s more likely to challenge the ego than many others. The relationship with the ego being core to any sort of spirituality imo. There are so many variables though. Like BB says, plenty of arseholes who smoke 😂
Yup, you can put an arsehole in a blender and it still contains 100% arsehole.
Wow! I’m not even high! 😻😵💫

Cannabis aiding spirituality? The only aid I can see is that cannabis used with mushrooms seems to heighten the effect and reduce anxiety induced by high doses of psilocybin. Based on set and setting, a user can break free of stuck modalities of thought and enter the spirit world. In summary, cannabis can be an adjunct to creating a spiritual experience when combined with mushrooms
Like British Bulldog said depends if your spiritual or how open ur mind is to seeing things differently which I would be myself nd spiritual floating when stoned always nice even if it's not too heaven 😂 if it's good enough for the rastas religion overall just makes you chill out nd relax I think that's what we all want from this crazy world. I'd imagine most people wouldn't think off it in a spiritual sense. I think if someone close to you dies when ur stoned cam feel them probably just ur minding wanting them back.
I take more of a humanist perspective these days so I struggle to say what being "spiritual" even means exactly.
That said, I think weed can give us something of a rush of joy and wonder that can help appreciate and reframe stuff. Also, a deeper interest in things we might otherwise not have noticed: not always a good thing, e.g. when you think truly banal things are profound. Sometimes it helps reach a more introspective viewpoint. This last one can be damaging if you allow yourself to become a navel-gazing, reclusive stoner though ... at least that has been the case for me: everyone is different I guess.
Where it may also hamper personal development is where you use it to avoid or put off difficult emotions until later: definitely been guilty of this one too.

Very good points imo Father👍
Feeling good and/or feeling good about yourself albeit weed induced is a far healthier perspective to consider the bigger picture from. I know I come out with some right bollocks when I’m high, but that’s the point- I do KNOW it and find it hilarious. I watch friends on the booze (or nothing at all) and the same bollocks is deadly serious and deadly boring…
I’m happy to get stoned alone and have on the odd occasion found my navel fascinating, but without negative outcomes. But like you say, we are all different. I suppose regardless of the intoxicants, the person that you start with is still there at the finish….😉😎

Mushrooms are probably better 🤷♂️ but yeah I can certainly see the spiritual mists start to clear when I’m high…depends on the strain/type though- can we have suggestions for best strain for a spiritual awakening? 👍🥹😍

I’d love this too 👆
I definitely find myself in moments of feeling more connected with myself and more aware of colours and sounds around me. I love a smoke while I’m out walking with the dog, paddling in the Irish Sea

Being in nature and around animals stoned is the best , specially when the fishies start talking to ya :D
Never tried them mushrooms! But the right one can certainly take you even further than the Fairy land :D
Your not gonna like it but to be more spiritual,enlightened is to be as pure as you can be,no marijuana or drugs of any kind,also be truthful to yourself and othe beings.
Hehe lot of loopholes in that argument buddy surely?
I can argue that as a plant cannabis is as much a joy of nature as a lettuce. It’s as pure a gift from God as anything else.

I can argue that as a plant cannabis is as much a joy of nature as a lettuce. It’s as pure a gift from God as anything else. Only we choose to refer to it as a drug and only some societies still deem it bad or illegal. Throw those man made labels away and maybe it’s the finest tool to finding spiritual enlightenment that exists….why not?…in what way does it strip my ‘purity’ away? 🤔😉
Hehe…yeah, some of the gifts were from celestial Asda, some from celestial Waitrose…it’s the natural order of things😂
Voodoo is right. but i like how you are trying to decoy truths. Bunnin' weed isnt pure. Weed is a trap. Illusion of enlightenment but really Lucifer in disguise every rasta knows we all worship Lucifer in disguise. Why we sin and blaze weed.
To answer directly no it does not. spiritual growth solely comes from within, in the sense that connectivity to you mind body and energy need to be retained and an awareness kept throughout all interactions in present.
If you are looking for a spiritual awakening, find a reputable shaman and attend an Ayahuasca tea ceremony, a genuine one. I am going to try shrooms soon, something I've always been interested in and having done a couple of ceremonies I will throw myself in at deep end with shrooms, happy to report back after.
Don't kid yourselves about weed. It can aid but very much indirectly and I'm certain you would arrive at a spiritual awakening much sooner with a sober body mind energy. There's a reason why most spiritual undertaking require you to be sober.

no weed (especially edibles) helps you find it and stay there but
yes this isn't going to happen for everyone or every time. it's still your cpu running.
you're gonna love shrooms k, bon trip.

Mmmh.. I like the things you said.. I also liked that someone else mentioned how weed challenges the ego - that’s so true!! I still sustain that for most cases weed does aid spiritual growth, in my own humble opinion, because if anything it calms people down and that has been a must for every human being in this planet including myself “Calm down..”
Ayahuasca ceremonies are something else different all together. First of all the Shaman guiding the ceremony has to be authentic. Never tried but will someday definitely!
I’d love to hear the mushroom experience..! Just make sure to throw yourself up and high with it. Peace!

The Ascended Master Bhagwan Rajneesh says that marijuana can give you a glimpse of the beyond… I agree with Him considering that it is factual that the sometimes miraculous herb can open you up to higher states of consciousness..!

Could cannabis be the answer to coronavirus?
It would be interesting to see a statistic about the survival rate of weed smokers.
This may just be a coincidence but I don't have covid and I use cannabis everyday ;)
This may just be a coincidence but I don't have covid and I use cannabis everyday ;)
Not medical evidence, paramedic and smoker (not at same time!) not had a day off sick since covid started. Been exposed multiple times. Not proof of anything, just my 2pence
I was working close with a guy that tested positive the day after we worked together, he had his test the day before. I didn't catch it
I genuinely don’t know anymore. My opinion is the virus is real but nowhere as bad as we are being led to believe. but the whole situation is being manipulated by governments for their own agendas. “Biggest transference of wealth in history” ? Anyway enough crazy talk. Stay safe everyone.
I used cannabis daily for years & got critically ill with Covid back in Jan 21. 3 months on life support, 4 months total in hospital. Have been discharged 9 months now & only been taken off my daily blood thinners last week. (I had blood clots in both lungs) - now I can explore the world of edibles as my lungs are f****d from my brush with Covid.....any suggestions welcome. Thank you.
I’ve done zero research on this topic, but just on the slightest off chance it does I upped my dose since lockdown, you can never be too careful lol.
Speaking from personal experience, maybe??? I had covid in March/ April, it sucked, and I've had "long covid" ever since, though much better than I was. On the other hand, I didn't get a cough let alone ARDS, so I wasn't hospitalised. On the other other hand, "long covid" reset my tolerance levels to newborn infant, so I was only taking a tiny bit of AVB every night to help me sleep. If you get covid maybe experiment with microdosing edibles as opposed to lighting up a fat blunt?
I take cannabis oil whenever I start feeling a cold or flu and I swear it works over 90% of the time.
I had it in feb before it was thought to be here, only thing that let me breathe was a combo of weed and the blue athsma inhaler. I distinctly remember saying that the only reason I wasn't in hospital with whatever flu I had was I was smoking heavily.
Well no one I know who smokes it or in my family had had covid at all that’s all I’m saying ;) defo the cure / prevention of CANCER!!! Facts

Saw them live in the summer at Crystal Palace bowl and they were great. Divide and Exit was my intro to them as well. I think they've improved with each album, love the new stuff.
I’ve discovered them same time as you. Great band!
Also i made another discovery. See above link.
Cheers!

Point click and rat. Does anyone think this is a good thing?
This reminds me of the Chinese Social Credit Score system. Very bad precedent for society at large. This might be happening in SF, just because everyone there is trying to cook up every conceivable concept for an app in order to turn a buck.
from a prankster perspective? hell yeah it's a good thing. you can freak out an entire neighborhood w an alien costume whenever you get bored.

Why Cryonics Makes Sense
Great piece on why this cryonics is simply a rational decision.
the problem i see is that it's a trust based system and you are trusting people selling an afterlife. that doesn't bring us much further than religious belief in life after death.
I love this opening:
You’re on an airplane when you hear a loud sound and things start violently shaking. A minute later, the captain comes on the speaker and says:
There’s been an explosion in the engine, and the plane is going to crash in 15 minutes. There’s no chance of survival. There is a potential way out—the plane happens to be transferring a shipment of parachutes, and anyone who would like to use one to escape the plane may do so. But I must warn you—the parachutes are experimental and completely untested, with no guarantee to work. We also have no idea what the terrain will be like down below. Please line up in the aisle if you’d like a parachute, and the flight attendants will give you one, show you how to use it and usher you to the emergency exit where you can jump. Those who choose not to take that option, please remain in your seat—this will be over soon, and you will feel no pain.
What would you do?

Here's a parachute that definitely doesn't work. They cost you all the money you intended to pass on, then will probably go on to cost your offspring.
We'll try our best come up with a method to make it work before you hit the ground.
Form an orderly queue.

Does anyone know if small-time bitcoin buyers need to register with the FCA now? I can't work it out.
Thanks man. I was talking about the new requirement from the FCA that all cryptocurrency brokers in the UK must register with them in order to carry on trading. I’m not a broker, just a small-time buyer. But when you read the regulation (MLR, Section 14a), it could mean anyone who buys bitcoin full stop, but that can’t be right.

Leading Venture Capitalist is an AI

Leading Venture Capitalist is an AI
Gooogle's massive VC firm makes all of it's investment decisions using AI.
It's always been about self-reinforcement with the VC community, little dog follows the big dog. An algorithm can do this without delusions of original thinking.
I think any sentence with "is an AI" can be easily reversed, "AI is a leading venture capitalist". I'm not being pedantic I just think its a good idea to think of it this way.
The singularity has already, and will continue to creep up on us, perspective is critical.
The singularity has already, and will continue to creep up on us, perspective is critical.
VCs were programmed to corporatize potential threats to the System long before AI came into the picture.
Just a warning to others to share my experience.
I bought 14g of Super Lemon Haze back in August which never turned up. I found out later this was due to the fact hootan didn't pay the sufficiant postage for the first shipments of the super lemon. I saw others on LB had some turn up very after several weeks. Mine did not.
After discussing with hootan he was very helpful and reassuring and said to keep an eye on his page and he would send a replacement at my request. Mid October I contacted to get a replacement of 7g of Purple Sunset, I didn't make a big deal about the weight as it was about the same price I paid for the super lemon.
Several weeks later again and still no delivery. I contacted hootan but have had no responses and I believe I'm getting ignored.
I saw another buyer leave a rating on hootans page that they were in the same boat as me and after requesting a replacement nothing turned up, followed by the silent treatment as well.
I can understand it is always a risk we take when ordering on LB that things get lost.
But because it was the fault of the vendor with the underpaid post, I believe I was entitled a replacement.
I would rather know upfront that I was not getting a replacement and take the loss. I would not be happy but it is something I would accept as we all know the risks. Instead I feel that I have been completely messed around in the communications since this started back in August.
I've ordered from hootan a few times and the bud and service has always been very good. But it says a lot about the vendors character with this sort of behaviour in dealing with this situation. Quite frankly immature. It is a shame but I won't be back again to order.

Don’t Reply to my messages, nada have landed after more than a month from beginning of April, today date is 12 of May , first delivery he said he sent it to Africa so he said why is he resending again... few days later for he to get the money back and me don’t get refunded by ecrow he says is sending again.... after a month I’m trying to get my money back but what happens now is ecrow says after a month doesn’t give you the money back what a piss take, that’s why is selling the onces on sale so he can rob you, basically I feel scammed on here I jut will avoid this dealer from now in future. Don’t be fooled by this bloke.
Exactly the same excuses for me.
Unfortunately the first order I made was some of the best hash ever smoked, but what's the f. point if I cannot receive it.
Plus he's blatantly ignoring my messages while responding to others.

I dont understand what kind of postal service is he talking about. I know for a fact that no package will be sent if the sender hasnt payed for the sending. I dont think any carrier has options where buyer pays for it, certainly not in international delivery.
The only problem is when sellers say they will pay for high priority mail and then pay the lowest fee. So the package gets delayed and is handled like garbage...so it can get lost too. Or forgotten somewhere. Once I got a package like that, sent from Pakistan after a year and more....

What I think is, it could be as simple as he says he sent it, the dealer could sent you anything to get seized as 1 gr of bud no sealed, get stopped you get nada and he said he sent u an once for example lol but get stopped anyway second delivery he said did the same get seized again and all he sent you was 2 gr which both being seized by Mail and after more than a month no refund by ecrow, you feel me?
You can prove all as you want as I explained on the post I haven’t received nothing and there’s more people with the same problem as me so yeah maybe you set it up for make some extra money for people which is this times are not having the best tim and this products willl help them to cope and people like you try to take advantage of the situation... I can’t say it more clear AVOID this man
Have to say Hootan is patient and very very fair.
I had package not arrive. I had to wait a little but there was never a doubt that this man Hootan would sort it.
Since then package has improved, you and your experience are not true reflection on Hootan. I am in Ireland, no reason he would treat me different to other buyers

{Economics}
How Are Negative Interest Rates Possible?
Why would anyone loan money and expect less back?
It's possible that technology is making everything so much cheaper that the market expects money to be able to buy more in the future. So deflation.
Don't think so, manufacturing is cheaper as time passes but products are also more complex. Indeed you can buy a mobile phone now at 1/10 of the price of 20 years ago, but who want it now?
It’s basically a way that central banks control the supply of money. When times are bad and banks are holding onto their money; the central bank sets negative interest rates - this means banks are charged money to keep it with the BOE; this makes them more likely to dish out loans to us plebs;
When times are good and there’s a possible economic bubble, the rates are high to stop banks lending stupidly;
Either way we get screwed at the end of it

Because knowing you will lose 2% is better than not knowing how much you will lose. It’s a billionaire problem, I wouldn’t worry yourself about it;)
it either means the value of the money is headed up or there is an insane arbitrage in hand.
Well guess who the borrower is, the same folks that take your money at gunpoint every time you earn or spend a cent of it.
You have to choose who will destroy your capital the least, i.e. "give me your capital and i will lose you 2% pa which is better then the next manager who will lose you 5%". As bigbum says if you buy bonds, like German or Swiss bonds you do know how much you are going to lose. This is negative rates. Picking the best loser. In the alternative just hold gold or cash but that brings its own problems. Gold is volatile (advocates say its the safest, you can always trade with gold) as for cash, you need to stash it and parley inflation risk?

What would be your US coup plan?
Well, good thing he's not pitching that
What would be your US coup plan?
With enough chaos surrounding an election outcome the possibilities open up for a coup. I'm wondering what the game is in a contemporary media setting.
Eazy-peazy my equine bigga just slow the vote count. If people have enough time to question what's going on they won't believe the result no matter what it is.
Poor old President will have no choice but to declare martial law until a new election in the future.
Poor old President will have no choice but to declare martial law until a new election in the future.
Seriously nobody ever got sacked for that move. Best to scare the people that will bring you the military, don't even have to recruit them directly, work on their families instead, same with law enforcement. Law and order is what sells a good coup.
1 - Fake assassination attempt the day before election leaves President in "critical" condition.
2 - Any result is now disputable, disorder/manipulation reigns.
3 - Miraculous recovery of martyr status President is best option until elections "rescheduled".

Thank you. I can see that happening without a doubt.
Also the man who was Ali Kamel Mohsen, who was allegedly killed by an Israeli Air strike on Fri night Sat morning. He will "return" to life, and slowly take over the world. Trump will be completely in his power, and will ultimately meet his demise at the same moment as this new world leader who will emerge quickly. Read the last book of the New Testament, Revelation. Its all there down to the last detail.

a billion dollar stash of btc has just moved from it's ancient wallet.
They were just charged 9 quid to transfer a billion. That's mad. I didn't know charges were capped.
Blockchain are trying to charge me £13 to transfer £45 lol....I need to find out where they got it so cheap hahaha
the more fragmented the coins the more processing required. this is the definition of old money. hope some cunt hasn't just stolen it.
"the more fragmented the coins the more processing required"
something i'm only realising now! with the many payments from LB my transactions when cashing out are massive, costing me 50 quid odd just to move it. And looks like one of the alphabet agencies has seized it :(

I bet the US will create a military confrontation before the next election.
If you havent, watch the movie 'Wag The Dog'

Define "the US"? What if it is federal gov vs. state gov? Hasn't that already happened?
He will, a war on his own people. If he doesn't go full dictator, call marshal law and force himself into another term I'd be shocked.
Just keep the fingers crossed that the greater good will go full Libya on him.

World war III the silent war, declared and has been happening the day after the end of World War II
Yes that will happen. And he will have help from an unknown source, who will quickly take over the world. He is the man known as Ali Khamel Mohsen, who was allegedly killed by an Israeli Air strike, which was probably not Israeli responsibility.
This world leader will die with Trump, for good, after a period of exactly seven years from the signing of the new agreement on the Whitehouse Lawn. This agreement will involve the Jewish Temple, protections for Jewish people etc., but the world leader will break the covenant, take over the new Temple, sit on a big throne he will have set up there, and call himself God, demanding complete obedience from people everywhere. War will happen in a constant chain which will shake all the powers that be, but at the same time there will be alot of good things happening, but they will be hidden at first.

You guys that think Trump is starting a war; are borderline mentally challenged. The left are the ones who will be committing violence when they lose the election fair and square.

Numbness in right side of mouth PLS HELP!!

Numbness in right side of mouth PLS HELP!!
I smoke weed quite regularly and have done for a couple of years now. At the beginning of october after smoking one night i woke up to a numb mouth/ lips/tounge. Weird thing is, only the righy side of my mouth seems to ne effected. Ive tried not smoking, but the numbness hasnt gone away and whenever i reach for a cannibis product it kind of flares back up again. Is it some kind of extreme cotton mouth situation? Please please someone help me out if you can, im getting quite worried now
Never heard of a reaction like that to cannabis, most likely a cavity in your tooth. Either way go to a dentist they scan it for you. Free on nhs. Otherwise can cost you but either way has to be done.
Waiting times are long now so don’t delay that call
Waiting times are long now so don’t delay that call
Get medical.advice and sooner rather than later huh. It's probably nothing,but best to know for sure.
I definitley will. Im starting to think that it might be a cavity that gets inflamed when i smoke. I notice that the nunbness on my tounge/my lips goes down whenever im fully hydrated but its still always there and its been there since the beginning of october.
What’s your age?
Are any of your lymph glands enlarged?
Are there any taste disturbances?
Does your mouth have a tingling/ burning sensation?
When you say your tongue feels numb is it one side or the whole tongue?
Is it only the right half of your lower lip that’s numb?
(I’m a dentist btw)

Hi thanks for reaching out!
Im 20. My mouth doesnt have any tingling or burning sensations. Only the right side of my tounge is numb. Its the right side of my lower lip and the very corner of the upper lip and sometimes after smoking a high potency strain/ a lot of weed, the numbness can carry on to the area just around the right side of my mouth. There were some taste disturbances at the very beginning so way back in october, but it sorted itself out pretty quickly and i can taste fine now

Considering your age I would say it’s unlikely to be anything sinister. You’re also at the age where I’d expect eruption of wisdom teeth.
Have you had any infection of wisdom teeth.
Swelling in that region can cause compression of the inferior dental nerve which can result in numbness of half of your lower lip. The lingual nerve runs right along side it before entering the jaw bone- compression of this could cause numbness of that side of your tongue.
First port of call would be a dental assessment. If that proves fruitless then I would expect a referral to an oral & maxillofacial specialist for further investigation.
Don’t ignore it please just in case on the very rare occasion it is something serious

Watch films, play on Xbox go for a walk, read a book, although when really baked I forget what I read, which is extremely helpful.
You and me both! I always have great plans and then I end up zoned out In another dimension or laughing at something I heard two weeks ago. Lol!
look at the hash I have received and compare it to the vendors photos and despair at the crap they have sent me.

StickyFingersCo Nominated for termination.

StickyFingersCo Nominated for termination.
Multiple fake accounts, homophobia, fake reviews, unnecessary down voting, taking private buyers into public forums for shaming on mental health?
They’re products might be on point but ffs who put a 13 year boy in charge to represent them? Surely they’re not needed here, I don’t think so, I certainly wouldn’t give them my money but we vote on shit here. StickyFingersCo must think they’re invincible here to act in such a way and then give the middle finger boasting sales figures. Just a horrible vibe all round.

Storm in a tea cup until it's YOUR private shit with a vendor being plastered all over LB trying to make you look like a cock and asking all other vendors not to trust you though right?
no, not sure what gave you that idea. I'd have that resolved way earlier in a much more peaceful, reasonable way. A ban is harsh, its just kids falling out and getting emotional about it.
And i had you classier than a downvoter tbh carver. nvm.
And i had you classier than a downvoter tbh carver. nvm.
You don’t get to choose the outcome when it’s the vendor at fault unfortunately, you can try as much as you like to resolve like an adult but when the other party is acting like a 3 year old your efforts would be wasted. A ban isn’t harsh enough imo but suffice in this digital age, go and read the shit that happened dude I’m pretty sure you haven’t read the half of it.
Sorry to disappoint man, I down vote shit that doesn’t sit right with me and this isn’t a storm in a tea cup imo, it’s a cancer that will eventually blow up in someone’s face, hopefully not yours.

i generally pass through forums liked, so ill dismiss your negative possibilities. We have had an apology from one side, at very least, panch123 deserves con an apology. Then i guess everyone lives happily ever after. Thats a resolution, im not sure pouring hate looks good long term in these situations.
That's the way I see it too buddy.
Read a bit of it and people calling out other accounts that were clearly not sticky for being sticky. UK420 even came and verified this particular account was not sticky, but still the hounding continued - so it looks like some kinda witch hunt to me.
Cant pretend I'm aware of everything that was going on, but the first thing I looked into was clearly made up BS to discredit the vendor, so there definitely false accusations happening here and I would not support removing the vendor unless there's conclusive proof of serious wrong doing. Not saying their isn't, just saying i'm not seeing it.

I've no dog in this fight but after reading the posts I can't see them being a trustworthy holder of anyone's address or details.
and that is the most worrying thing about dealing with lunatic vendors,but i have a hard mrs..let them come lol :)
I'm the same never even ordered off these guys but so glad I didnt after reading some the posts and seeing that there clearly using fake accounts to make themselves look better but anyway each to there own I stick to my trusted vendors
Making fake accounts to argue in their favour - which almost certainly also means fake reviews - should be an instant ban. It's intent is to deceive customers and that should never stand.
I'm voting yes purely based on the post I linked here. Awful.
'humanity reaches adulthood' is the title of this site, they should have read it and so should their friends/alts in this topic... trying to act like bad men on the internet and they just sound like spoilt 12year olds screaming slurs they don't even understand at their xbox's lmao it's so cringey, they even say "left wing" as an insult when they get angry like they're some fucking American troll wannabe what is going on?... hope the whole lot of them at least get kicked off the wall so I don't ever have to see their childish nonsense again. This isn't reddit/facebook/twitter or whatever shit people use these days.
Big up carver! :)

Calling someone out for mental health issues while talking to themselves!!! Fucking classic that was lol
Calling someone out for mental health issues while talking to themselves!!! Fucking classic that was lol
Honestly, I gotta say I’ve had nothing but positive vibes from StickyFingers. Ordered off them about 4 times now and the smoke has always been banging including the Cali he’s got up now, that shit is fire (expensive I know). Also had quite a few convos with them and they’ve always been happy to help and accommodate any requests. Obviously looks like someone at StickyFingers has had a complete meltdown over the last 48 hours but honestly give them a chance to fix it at least. Just my thoughts.
iv had a few rows with vendors on here and i must admit my initial message would of been enough for the vendor to tell me to fuck right off..tbh thats what i was expecting but no they was calm which then made me calm and all problems have been sorted in a adult manner...these guys was my next port of call as some of their products look tip top but then i seen the topics on them and reviews..wow!!knowing how i am if im sold shit weed and i always give honest feedback but after seeing how these guys are with unhappy customers i simply carried on my search for that perfect vendor that suits me.you just cant go around mocking the way they have.not really the sort of shit you want to see on here....keep your shit in house
Can you please just post links to what you're talking about, there should be solid evidence of harm to do this to someone.
I believe sidetracked has linked the post. Nice one mate. Appalling behaviour from a couple of individuals. Although I feel there should be 2 up for a vote tbh
It's easy to find. The vendor posted a topic about a buyer. Screenshots of comments that should be from different accounts but from the vendor are all on there.
It's really pathetic what went on and how long it went on for. It also got way out of hand for what it was all about as well.
It's really pathetic what went on and how long it went on for. It also got way out of hand for what it was all about as well.
I don't even think votes even matter mate I honestly don't see the point in terminator bot, first with the vendors union now this.
Typical stoner, didn’t read the first line “This bot is defunct. Please use terminator borg” lol Water under the bridge now anyway I reckon mate!
Fuuuuuuuuuck little biggys went all facebook on us. Terrible way to deal withg a customer but also nothing happens if your offended steve hughes puts this wonderfully. Roll smoke smile love
If half of this is true then it shouldn't be on here. Any sources to backup the above though?
never mind.. didn't take long to find what you were referring to. if this is allowed to happen then this site is screwed.

yo biggz: android or ios?
There is nothing with the "feel" of an apple. If that word resonates with you get the apple if it sounds like bullshit get android.
Back and forth many times I gotta give it to Android, way more crypto evolution takes place there than the App Store.
Switched to the Pixel 4 XL after 10 years of iPhones. Keyboard is a bit better on iOS, in my experience, but everything else is better or not noticed on Android. The switch isn't that big of a deal unless you REALLY love iMessage.
I would like to let you know that you can personalise everything on android. Go Android :D
Android all day long mate, apple way to restricted and next best thing to everything costs. Stick with the little green man
Android because Googles voice recognition on a 100 dollar is better than Siri's most precious iPhone
Android purely because you can not effectively repair or tinker with an apple phone. Android really lets you get in there and tinker with the device, customize it, change it, whatever you can think of really. I love that.
Every device I have is Apple (for work) but i’d choose Android. Apple are ok but a bit restrictive. have a play with both and see which one you prefer.
I find IOS much easier to work with , once you get used to one of them , hard to make the switch

Brock Pierce For President
The prominent bitcoiner is characteristically, bringing game theory to the election. He knows he can't win but is betting he can create a stalemate by winning as little as 1 state.
Brock Pierce has a seedy background man, so I guess that makes him the perfect candidate. have you seen 'the open secret'?
https://vimeo.com/142444429 It was a pretty popular documentary on YouTube a couple of years ago but it's been taken down and swept under the rug as of late. There's the vimeo link to it though. Basically it's a doc exposing this peadophile ring in hollywood and Mr Pierce was involved in one way or another. Click the link and go to around 38:30 you'll see Pierce soon. Good to watch the whole doc for context though

TRAINSPOTTING
Ok guys I'm not a train spotter but I do love trains and travelling on them. I've travelled far and wide, long and short distance. (Any distance is a bonus right now knowing our local rail operator.!).
I was wondering though how people manage to have a relaxing puff on modern trains without arousing suspicion or getting caught.
Also I really love the 2 Trainspotting films - but why was it called trainspotting? Does anyone know?
STAY WELL AND TAKE CARE EVERYONE. DON'T FORGET THOSE FUNKY FACE MASKS.

When addicts inject in the arms and legs they leave a track up the arm or leg and that's referred to track marks hence the name trainspotting perfectly named movies a love trainspotting as a ex addict and from Scotland i can relate to the film, its also not far from the true,,,,
trainspotting is the act of finding veins through which to inject heroin. Awesome films though particularly the original. Absolutely groundbreaking in 1996! Excellent soundtrack too... Iggy Pop - Lust for Life. Fuck yeah
Oh thanks for that. Good stuff. And oh yes it was s brilliant film and brilliant soundtrack. That music was great combined with the film when watched on the large screen. For some odd reason I liked the psycho Begby I think his screen name was called he was completely off his head but still good to watch from a distance, I wouldn't like to cross him on real life.
Thankfully I've never taken heroin or injected anything!!

I've been caught smoking in the wc and was thrown off the train at the next stop :)
Not a train, but edibles work well for me on a plane mate :). Had an infused chocolate coffee bean on my last trip over the Atlantic. Was blissful! Depends how long your train ride is I suppose! Love been blazed watching the English countryside on a train though! Can see why you want to do it, I’m normally stoned before even getting on
I thought trainspotting was a word for doing heroin?! Don’t quote me on that though. Fun films though. Love the grow room in the 2nd

Hi swiller..have you tried any of green fingers bud..been some nice choices over last few months..just on some birthday cake from him at the moment..top bud..clean smokes so good..and also Ammunation amnesia haze..another top smoke..strongest haze ive had..and im a old School smoker..in my 40's..and now hootan back on..keep an eye out for his strains he lists.and also good to mention jj. He does nice weed also....not really a hash smoker..so cant comment on that..respect JB
Cheers bro. Top man. Had a rory of the ammo and quite right, its beyond its strain and how it should be. Not tried green fingers, been put off by price tbh. Aye had some of JJ early lockdown, organic stardawg was nice. Hootan not tried so perhaps thats next stop on the biggy journey.
Hi swiller. Yes seems all a bit pricey atm...with myself i like to try different strains..so tend to buy smaller amounts..ie..1 or 2 grams at a time..love to try different flavour strains..so tend to use vendors ie green finger..hootan..Ammunation..all those who list those amounts..all great vendors with great weed:-)..
Good luck with your journey swiller..respect jb
Good luck with your journey swiller..respect jb
My personal favourite has been LUD's amnesia haze when it was on his dank of the week. My favourite strain ever and was a top bit of bud. And I know you said forget the prices, but it was actually really great value for money which you don't tend to get on here very much!

I was gonna do my fantasy football team, but then I got high...
The Premier League is back! :D Who else is excited?
I didn't know where to put this topic but figured I'd stick it in stoned thoughts because I'm currently sat in the top1000 in Premier League Fantasy Football and was meant to do go and sort my team out today so I could make a top100 push but then a package landed ad guess what? I missed the deadline, missed the free wildcard and will probably be down to about a millionth position after the weekend lmao :P
But who cares? I'm high and football is back!

But who cares? I'm high and football is back!
It's been 2 days since the premier league ended now and I miss having constant football. Was just so nice to have at least 1 game every day. Champions league is back in a couple weeks so that will have to do, but it's still not as entertaining as the premier league.
Feels like it took forever to get started again and then ended so quickly! Thankfully still got Europe but now next season is 6weeks away you just know it will drag again.
As for the FPL, I didn't get anywhere near my target but did finish in the top900 overall, suppose it's not too bad. It'll have to do because it's the only thing I've accomplished this year lol :P

Haha I'll have to get some tips from you for next season, I never do well in FPL. In fact I didn't change my team at all after the restart. Didn't even use bench boost or triple captain which was a major mistake. Still coming mostly 2nd or 3rd in my private leagues though so I'll take that. Defo should have taken the 3 leicester players out cos they really messed the team up after restart.
Bring on next season!!
Bring on next season!!
Play some FPL myself, managed to squeeze my way into the top 10k after the free wildcard and a bench boost :) Good luck with the rest of the season bud you’re smashing it!
Not bad mate... just checked my team and my rank is like 1.4 million so not a great effort from me this time around!
I haven't got this into FPL for years but was really enjoying it this season, currently down to 1746th :( but it's tight at the top! you're probably only a few points behind me mate, I'll be watching over my shoulder :P

Keep an eye on Minneapolis!
This could end very badly. Trump had threatened to bring in the army and after referring to them again as "thugs" he tweeted "when looting starts, the shooting starts"... This tweet was hidden by Twitter (who he recently signed an order against to remove liable protections) so his war with them is ramping up... a CNN reporter was arrested at the protests after identifying as press but has since been released. The Police Department has been burned down. These protests began a couple of days a go and have been ongoing. The officer who killed George Floyd is still free.
Just for any one unaware the protests began after the murder of George Floyd and in the wake of the daily murders of innocent, unarmed black people by US police forces.
I'm getting concerned about this situation and because history shows us that the US can murder scores of black people in the street and have it forgotten about the next day I really would keep a close eye on this one....
Can you believe this is the country we have (apparently) chosen to side with going forward.... this is the country that wants our NHS and a fat new trade deal.... if this where happening anywhere else in the world things would be very different. Every single day our news shows us this shit coming out of America and we have no choice but to stomach it because we can't do anything and our gov is always in their pocket. I feel so bad for the Americans being kept down by these people, I don't even know what to say.... just please don't let this one go unnoticed.
And just hope it doesn't get as bad as it could.
Sorry for the downer topic but this matters. And the US is fucked.

They're definitely straying a bit too close to the edge, they'll do their best to take us all down with them too if it happens the bastards lol.
After 3 days of riots the officer has finally been arrested but even that's probably just because they can't keep him safe any more. 8pm curfew for the people living there now.... America is fucking bizarre.
Protests/riots have gone nationwide now, this is far from over.

I've been living in Minneapolis for the past three months (British living in Australia usually) and I have to say, I've never seen anything quite like this. People are upset and rightly so; there is a systemic issue with racism in the Minneapolis (and probably many other cities and states) and people have had enough. No amount of comment about violent protesters and supremacists is going to distract the world from the real issue here; America has institutionalized racism throughout governmental (and non-governmental) bodies. The (majority of) police here disgust me. Trigger happy men, bullied as kids with a god complex, demanding respect because they hold a gun, and oppressing whomever they want without fear of retribution. The state of Minnesota continues to safeguard the liberty of 3 of the 4 involved in the killing last week, and the other is faced with charges that will mean he won't see in the inside of a jail cell.
I'm digsusted.

I’m white dudeand I’ve been personally treated like a criminal and felt excessive force but not like that, I don’t think ppl in England realize how nice it is to have a conversation with a police officer
Thanks for sharing, the fact you can experience all of this in just 3months adds a lot of perspective I can't even begin to imagine what it must be like for the people who lived their whole lives there. The whole world seems to be on their side with this, even the UN, I hope the fact the world is watching will help keep people safe and help to bring justice and change but it's really not looking good so far. The people NEED to win this fight.
Take care of yourself over there mate.
Take care of yourself over there mate.
Still kicking off but not getting ignored thankfully. It's good to see people from other countries (including ours!) protesting outside US embassies in solidarity.
Been videos caught of police shooting innocent bystanders (stood in their own gardens) and people just out shopping with rubber bullets... apparently that makes it ok. Police driving into protestors. More choking with the knee. Lots of police butality I wont link to them but one safe to watch is this https://streamable.com/u2jzoo - does it get more "America" than that? Imagine that coming down your street telling you to get inside. He actually said "light 'em up" wtf?
Do we have any Americans on here? they're usually everywhere - be careful!

To Ronald & Rastaman: It Must Be Love
started topic
I agree it is madness but what can you do when a banned vendor keeps coming back he scammed people and leaked their addresses he been caught out a few times sending products in fake cali bags his whole setup is exactly the same and what confirmed it for me was when i put on Ronalds wall where sweetdreamz was posting from and Ronald disappears and couldn't fulfil orders we are not talking about your average scammer he cannot be trusted with addresses
You disappeared when Ron got caught out, you must of felt a little bit stupid calling people trolls for stating facts it shows who are the real trolls are. Where is Ron now lol?

I reckon LB should run their own monthly lottery Whereby it’s like say $5 per ticket. LB keeps 20% of total pot to reinvest into this awesome community - hosting, security and as hoc improvements and 80% paid to a winner or like 50% 1st pot, 20% 2nd and 10% 3rd....would you guys do this? Just a way to give back to the community and offer a little something extra for us ?
Just seen that! :D will try and get my order in before deadline! Love the creative and entrepreneurial thinking :D

But what if someone is telling the truth then a vendor can just have bad shit deleted.
this is crazy unless you're selling services to vendors ;) there is a clear conflict of interest here and this will not benefit customers.
it seems that this site was designed with decentralisation as one of the pillars. creating aligned circles of interest/authority within are counter to that design philosophy imo.
any vendor providing a quality service should have no problems, except perhaps from other vendors...

I think this page runs the risk of becoming a hot spot for drama, false accusations and full blown conspiracy theories.
Ultimately vendors already have protection in place and I think the community handles trolls and false reviews perfectly well. Having a page like this where we promote targeting and eliminating "bullies" will allow mob mentality to seep in to our community, and innocent people will get caught up in that.

Great point, was thinking that myself. Having said that, I do trust the vendors I use as none of them have given me a reason not to or let me down but I do agree that there has to be some sort of recourse otherwise it could become a free-for-all. Sounds like a great idea though, especially for the legitimate vendors.
Thank you for your input - each and every is valuable.
The vendors are very reliant on the feedbacks on this site.
Which means that their service and reputation they have to earn.
This doesn't cancel the fact that they, as well as the buyers, need to enjoy protection.
I'll be happy to see you around again.
Cheers,
V.

Completely agree with you Vikosh, some of the vendors on here do a great job and have worked hard for their rep, that is why it's a shame to see them being lambasted recently and agree that they too, deserve some sort of protection. I don't want to sound like an idiot but this sort of thing only works if a third party is the one that makes the decisions. Bias is very real on either side of the coin, hence why transaxe is there. But I don't see this is a bad thing. Just a way to weed out the people giving terrible reviews for spite and I think that's good for the community as a whole.
Funny enough... Gave a seller on amazon a 1 star rating as they did not send the item and even added a rm tracking number... leaving me waiting for days on end
Got a refund but my rating and review got removed.

Hi guys,
Looking for a vendor that could do 4.5-9oz per week. It's for a local connect of mine. Any suggestions?

Always be careful about a post like this, it will get you some bad direct messages.
It's extra important to use escrow on bulk orders, I have learned the hard way.

Hey Beni,
There are several vendors that sell large quantities.
Radar Breeder (RB)
and
The Green Team (TGT)
It wouldn't hurt to ask other vendors such as: Drugs Inc UK (DIUK) or Gods Connect.
Have a look through this list as well, may some vendors have what you need. Then you can ask them for bigger quantities.
Hope this helps,
V

How can we stop this community from toxicity?
It's getting hard for anyone to get going on here, people are accusing every new vendor of being someone else. We need to realize that only the community can sniff out the bad eggs but interrogation is not the way to go. Big vendors have got big for 1 reason and that is voting from LBers.
Any ideas folks?
Any ideas folks?
I think we shouldn't forget that it's OK to disagree.
One shouldn't insult ones intelligence by using insults.
And if there is one bigga that is trippin all over the community and some playing Colombo type of stuff, let them, as long as they don't insult and obstruct.
And prescribe them some indicas.
May be we should even have that type of nomination for toxic ones. If someone needs to chill out, let's nominate him/her for some indica.
It will help them to reflect, sort of a community mirror model.
Sounds like communism, but well, aren't we already living in communism where all we want is to stick our noses into other people's business? And then shame them for things?
{community mirror} just like that.
Peace Yo.

There is never a way to disprove multi identity accusations. So that's always going to be a part of our world here, it's a big difference to IRL.
I understand,but can vendors not be discredited before they get a chance? Allowing them time and then letting the community judge who stays and who goes. We all came here for good quality cannabis not to become a paranoid unwelcoming customers/vendors.
Completely agree, the witch-hunt mentality is crazy...why would any vendor bother putting up with the accusations when there are many other places they could sell and not face constant interrogation?
My main problem is that regardless of how the vendors respond, there are a number of users I’ve noticed that only want to believe what they think. If you don’t get the kind of response that you want from a vendor, whether your questions is valid or not, then just don’t buy anything. Bored of wading through arguments that look like they are constructed by a teenager.

It's not easy but I'd rather have witch hunts than politicians or corrupt mods, that said they need to get a whole lot smarter than now.

Benzo as a trip killer
Hi biggaz,
Not been ordering as heavily as around a month ago I had a pretty messed up experience on acid, this has left me with an impending sense of doom every time I smoke weed? I know crazy but I'm sure the psych vets on here may know what I mean. Now I feel ready to trip again as I need to get over this experience, it was difficult but not enough to put me off.
I've been told by some psychonaut friends to keep benzos like xanax on hand, quite frankly I know this would give me a sense of comfort but don't have access to them, I just don't know anyone that can get them. This leads me to the real questions, is it true that they would help? Also is there anything more readily available that would have a similar effect? Weed usually chills me, it sends me crazy on acid.
Many thanks

Im sure i heard people say vitamin c can bring you out of a trip, dont know if its true though
benzos suck, they suck life to reduce anxiety, therre are about 1 zillion ways to deal with anxiety without it, some actually are good for you like exhausting yourself physically and healthy foods that comfort, talking to friends even weed from what i understand from some of my colleagues here can also be helpful. INDICA.
They’re good for anxiety that’s it
There is no trip stopper
Relax and stay calm. You are more in control than you think
After tripping so much i get off on weed which to me is like a double bonus
If you have doubts then wait, you might not be ready for the next journey

Thanks for the reply man, I feel like the anxiety killer would be good. I feel I'm ready for the next one, just the idea of dropping back into the same loops is interesting but slightly terrifying. I feel I have got to the bottom of the cause of these loops hence the feeling I would like to go again.
The weed usually enhances my trip but last time it was pretty much the trigger for pulling me into the difficult experience. I feel this is why smoking causes this feeling now.
The likes of tramadol apparently can negate a lot of effects of a trip, but then of course serotonin syndrome or seizures is a severe risk. Kinda defeats the point, stop tripping, but die.
I think I'll probably just go for it. Might feel the need to find some benzos for the anxiety effect locally but that could take forever with the lockdown. I need to get onto the dark net, but that's too intense.

On this regard, the problem isn't so much that I cant smoke while tripping. Just that now I seem to always feel to be pulled down by vaping a bowl after the difficult experience during that trip. My relationship with weed seems to have been negatively affected.
There could be a reason behind it...one that you can make sense of...maybe an association from the act of smoking while tripping has conditioned this response now?...
Maybe you’ll get accustomed to it and or it will pass
Set and setting...stay safe and have a good time

I think you might have hit the nail on the head. We started smoking as my boyfriend had major trauma (several spinal breaks and more) and we both wouldn't be happy with opiates laying around all the time.
Now that you've said it that doomed panicky feeling is quite similar to what I imagine I felt when I got the phone call. Maybe nothing but maybe the weed has negative connotations in a way.
Thanks for all your replies, let's me talk it through in my head more.

Look I’ll tell you this...ive scared the bejesus outta myself tripping but it was a good thing too. In fact if i got acid and i didnt get scared i thought it was weak but I digress...

Yeah man, had the benzos waiting, didnt need. The weed had screwed me on my last trip. I'm more a walk around the farm and obsess over nature and my partner whilst tripping. The weed pulled me into the thought loops etc. So yeah, staying away from weed for a while.
In fact instead of smoking weed I've started microdosing acid and feel 1 million times better, the symptoms the weed helped mildly have damn near disappeared.
Thanks for the replies all of you. Great community, helped me come to my conclusion that I couldn't be happier with.

I'm doing 20ug per day on work days which is either 5 or 6 days per week. Honestly I have struggled with depression, anxiety and all sorts, several suicide attempts (bit dark I know). Everyone I have met seems to be so much more interactive and the people I harboured a hatred for now I just kind of feel sorry for them being miserable.
I've not done it the most scientific way, bought 100 crystal caretakers 220ug (as you can imagine I'm planning long term use) and made my solution, from one tab at a time, essentially 10 days from one tab. So far though I feel incredible and actually am in shock at how much more in tune with life I am. I've always been negative, so much so it's been a joke with friends. Now I actually see the beauty in life, the moon, sun, stars, trees etc.
Never know it may be temporary, I can't vouch for it long term as I've not been on long. If you struggle with the point of "everything" I can recommend though, as that was me.

Anything with high level vitamin c will you bring you down. I have it near me when I take shrooms or truffles as like you iv had bad experiences with it. Orange juice it the one for me. Also mars bar and coke as in cola as the height sugar intake also helps. They don’t get rid of it but it takes the intensity away. It certainly helps. And I find just knowing they are there if I need them really help me just relax and enjoy. Staying in one room is good for being on the impending doom. Go out in the sun and try them it’s a much better experience.
Its all in the mind...we’re highly suggestive in the fragile state of psychedelia
Literally anything will help if you believe it will but you cant stop the ride

Thanks again all of you, the house has been tidied, locked all the gates to the farm so I cant get out (I can get a little wanderlust while tripping), got the fruit and veg ready for snacks and the playlist sorted. Going to drop 3/4 of a 220ug crystal caretaker and see how the day plays out.
Really appreciate the advice from you all, I will update when I've landed. If I update before, it won't make any sense, ignore it!
Peace and love to all you.

Its not something most people would have on hand or obtained easily
Wouldn’t recommend mixing any drugs like this
Plus your tripping, why stop something that can be a pivotal changing moment in ones path in life

Are you feckin kidding me...maybe im waaaay off but ill tell you my own personal experience
I had read up on my friends prescription of mirtazapine because my friend wouldn’t be in the mind frame to care what he was given to take from the drug pushers ah hem i mean doctors!
So reading about this I noticed about it involving 5-HT serotonin receptor so i thought this shit must be active as psychedelics bind to the same receptors
Guess what i right, mirtazapine is trippy! On the psychedelic level with a twist...wouldn’t recommend it. Stay away, theres safer options to get off like mushrooms
So back on track...i dont know if this would add to or intensify the lsd or would it bind sooo much to the receptors blocking the lsd
but i thought once the lsd is bound to the 5-HT receptors that it was there until a certain time
So i look up mirtazapine and apparently its antagonist means blocking, but im thinking you would need to be on mirtazapine first to have negated effects from lsd
Maybe a pharmacist can chime in here, my best advice
Dont mix drugs, especially adding prescription drugs, in fact throw you illegal obtained prescription drugs in the been and smoke more cannabis and eat more shrooms!

your post makes no sense; first you say mirtazapine makes you trip (not according to any account I've ever read!) . then later you say it is an antagonist (which is the correct version).
you're presenting yourself like you understand what you are talking about and querying my information yet you are talking utter shit. you mention personal experience yet the account you've given here lacks any! go read bluelight and wind it in.

Bit rash i was but you’re right and i know i dont know what im talking about
have a look
The only reason i downvoted once is based on what i perceived to be ill advice to mix drugs
There is a big lack of understanding from both sides here
Subjective my experience is, i ask you to look into it further.
Im not literature kinda guy i only have my own experiences to reflect on

the title of this thread is 'Benzo as a trip killer'. I offered the information on what is a 'trip killer' as Benzos are not. after your first (less than cordial) response (the original escalation of language you complain so bitterly about) i referenced you to bluelight for the science but you seem to have ignored that. the link you referenced is about some freaks doing huge doses of that drug alone which is not relevant to was discussed. if you do most drugs in a high enough dose they'll likely do *something* to you. I've pushed nothing, only corrected erroneous information. the op did not come back so I left it there.
you've gone out of your way to try and twist this. I think your responses probably speak for themselves. it's so cringe to read.
it's worrying that some people on here seem to trust you so much. for me >1600 upvotes since you joined in jan 2020 is alarm enough.

Hi smee. I understand I'm probably late to the thread. I'm also not attacking you but diceman is correct.
I'm on both sertraline and mirtazapine. They are inhibitors. It's almost impossible to trip on either/both.
Tried 300ug recently, most.i got was a buzz whilst my mate was tripping hard in just 100ug.
Again, not meaning to take sides. You're a good guy on here who makes many great posts but on this specific matter diceman is most definitely correct in his assertion that one counters, not compounds, the other.

Maybe the combo or dose knocks you out before you see stuff??? I dont know...
I usually found when you fight the sleep is when weird shit happens on said substances like diphenhydramine for example
Too cap it off, scienctists doesn’t understand fully how psychedelics work
So who are we to say with validity
Life is subjective to boot

Fair enough but im not making it up, i know what it did to me
I don’t understand how either and it does sound counterintuitive
But when i see bright colours, twisting objects and moving surfaces and edges i call that trippy
Im not saying its like lsd...i said psychedelic with a twist
Look at the link please

Will have a read through the link. Sorry to come into this late. Don't mean to step on your toes.
You're right about us not knowing much about psychedelics. It's a big distorted field in chemistry and biology. All I know is they Inhibit my LSD trips which bloody pisses me off. At least I still.get the surge and buzz when coming up.

What bandwagon are you talking about man? I'm having a hard time following you. I made an observation, you can choose to take it on board or not mate.
I never said i was an expert ST
Of course i don't know, scientists don’t understand the mechanisms of psychedelics fully
I was speaking my experience not expertises
I provided evidence to the contrary of the claims of TALKING SHIT to help give insight
thats what im here for but if you attack me then im gona say it how it is
Are you gonna defend diceman then for the way he unduly spoke to me
Look at the link I provided and look into it yourself
Im sorry if i come across as rude but i have no tolerance for ignorance
No problem with you all
Just wish you would read things fully and understand where the writer comes from with his experience albeit limited and do the research before attacking him...definitely doesn't make me look bad being attacked
I just said he was rude and lazy for not even researching before attacking me
So yeah bandwagon
You know mixing drugs is a very bad idea especially when you dont know the person in questions physiological response to said compounds
Cheers for your support

No one is attacking you. I am also not defending anyone. These are all assumptions you have forced on to me. Look up the word bandwagon, that is not what is happening here. I can't talk to someone so defensive.
Well yeah you both basically said the same thing hence the bandwagon statement
Im literally not long awake and im appearing more defensive than im...not that its a reasonable excuse but my vocabulary is very limited
You are defending or appears you took a side at least
I havent forced anything and my experience isnt an assumption surely...i have no clue about the in and outs, dont claim too please re-read
If you have time after or later, look into a bit, its quite interesting...for me anyway
Maybe my words do look offensive but you cant see my smile

What should I do with my stems?
Hey biggas!
I haven't been on LB much lately but I'm still around.
Anyone have any suggestions on what I should do with my stems? I've been saving them for awhile now and thought 420 day would be a good time to use them somehow. I'm a complete noob when it comes to doing anything with weed other than smoking it. I heard somewhere I could make bubble hash out of my stems but I've never smoked hash before and not sure I understand how to make it or even how to smoke it.
Any good suggestions and instructions on how/what to do with these stems would be greatly appreciated.
Hope you all are staying safe and healthy, and that your 420 day is lit!

some lunatics grind and smoke stems...the cellulose content in there will rip the throat off you if you do so....i would use them for butter or edibles but if its only stems you have and no trim...no...i would look at making a tea...or booze fuse ...if you drink alcohol...im no expert...just my experience...peace
Wait, you can collect kief from stems? I imagine if I ground them up it would be harder to distinguish between kief and ground up stems.
Na i put them in the freezer so it will make it brittle so the thc falls of thc from stalks is no different than fron the bud you just need a grinder with a crystal catcher depending on the quality of bud you should get golden kief from the stalks i could easily make rosin out of the kief i collect its good quality everytime
Na they might be some plant matter that gets through the crystal catcher but that would happen with bud so it makes no difference i stick them in the freezer for half an hour try and grind them as fine as possible put it in the grinder with a pound coin and shake but you would need a bagfull of stalks to make it worth it
Holy shit! I put my bag of stems in the freezer for like 4ish hours (forgot about them and ended up taking a nap). After grinding them all up I now have enough kief to smoke a bowl of just that! 420 day is gonna be so lit!
Thanks Rastaman!!!
Thanks Rastaman!!!
I told you its hard to waste when you realize what you can get from them i never waste stalks now
You dont need massive stalks just the ones that come out of the bud when you make a joint or bong i also save the leaves sometimes they are caked in thc
Put them in a bottle of vodka.
Leave it for a week.
Have a shot, good times.
Cheers BB

Weed and alcohol is a bad mix, as is mixing any depressants as its proven to cause brain damage.
Tea is another thought I had. I tried to make stem tea with milk about 5 years ago and it ended in a huge mess. Tea does seem like it would probably be the easiest option though.
Grind them up and collect the thc from them i had a bagfull what i saved for ages ended up with a grinder full of thc
Hemp milk or butter are your best bets here most likely - easier than trying to make hash and less likely to end up with unececessary plant matter if you properly strain it.

Is there a backup site
Hello all I'm new .and I'm just wonder if there is a back up incase littlebiggy disappears or gets took down. I'm so glad I found this site everyone and vendors seem sound.
There is a darknet link. Society through the tor browser. And I noticed this morning that was working fine and clearnet was down.
any tips on how to find this (obv I know you can't give link). I searched all sorts of combinations on DDG and got nout. cheers
I found it on here mate. On a really old post somehow through the minefield that is littlebiggy i found it. Where I couldn't tell you and the chances of me finding it again. Nil.
Yeah I say the same too. I've only been here since January and it's a brilliant site. You will love it here, mate.
I m8 it's great I always new about the dark web. Just bit scared to go there lol. This site come up for me on review somewhere and thought is give it a go. Prices are far better and far more choice. I'm not a big smoker . Just like a wee vape at night after work. Could end up skint going through all the vendors trying different stuff lol
I was the same - didn't know where to start or what i might find once i got on there!!
But if you're struggling on here, it's definitely worth a go mate, installed what I needed (no different to installing, say, Google Chrome), found a link to a good site, transferred my bit coins and got my order the next week.
That said, ordered from The Green Team on here at same time (hedged my bets and ordered from 2 places) - theirs arrived more quickly and was a great smoke.

Ha ha yes I'm the same. I like a bit to relax at night. But thrres plenty of choice as you say on here. It's a bit like being in a sweet shop!! If found this site from a search too , and it was pointed out that the authorities don't worry too much about this site. I don't know what they do or don't know but it's great anyway and when the post office is back to normal it's really quick too, esp. If you pay for NDD. At the moment expect postal delays. The vendors on here post things very quickly, but the postal system is running very slowly but that's beyond our control. Cant wait for things to get back to normal.
Thanks m8 I'll maybe have to take a wee plunge into these dark net lol. Was trying to stay away from it

best series out there if you exclude the 2 middle seasons.
The first season was straight fire, clearly ran out of juice after that, what was whiteroses machine suppose to do? what did she show Angela? all kinda feels like an ass pull tbh.

Hi, I am new here and still feel like a child in a candy store, can’t believe all the goodies around and the convenience of ordering this way. I certainly will be looking forth to legalization.
In the meanwhile I have put a couple of orders in from reputable vendors and indeed I received relatively quickly, with great product and no interception. The stealth was great and I can understand how the parcels can go undetected.
I am telling myself that it is difficult to detect hence nobody should intercept the package, I doubt RM has dogs and in the unlikely case a package gets broken or otherwise found one can always say they did not put the order in. However should they search your house they will likely find some stuff and hence get you in trouble at least for that.
How do you all feel about getting caught? Any factual arguments (with references possibly)?
All I found was a dispatch center busting some shipments because of the smell (probably not so good stealth and lots of packages sent together) but apparently the Police did nothing to the receivers. In general it also seems that the police attitude towards consumers is quite relaxed.
Hoping to hear your thoughts.

Royal Mail are just a delivery service, they are uninterested in what's in the parcels, their job is to safely deliver it. The police are only interested in large scale trafficking and would rather it be behind closed doors than out on the street. Lb is not of interest, if any centralised government wanted it gone it would already be gone or be under constant DDOS attacks
Exactly the point. Don't speak what police is or isn't interested in. At the end of is an illegal substance in the most of the world and can affect ones life in so many various ways.
All because cannabis somehow is drifting towards the concept of just of more substance for white people to get smashed.
All because cannabis somehow is drifting towards the concept of just of more substance for white people to get smashed.
I don't worry at all. RM def do not have sniffer dogs and as a company they respect the mail so unless the packet is badly damaged and the contents are literally falling out then there is nothing to worry about. They are certainly not looking for it . Only if its there infront of them are they forced to call the police :-) No sight or smell then its 100 % safe
Even if the packet IS intercepted then I would guess that you wouldn't even get a visit from the police .. They know that we wouldn't be able to give them any information about the seller... not that we would anyway!
I think that as long as lb stays as it is and doesn't allow class As then we're all pretty safe.. It takes a lot of resources to bust an online marketplace and there plenty of other sites that they would be more interested in... All just my own opinion of course!
A site like this means less dealing 'on the street', which has gotta be a good thing, right??!
Don't worry, be happy ?

got busted by local police, local post opened a case against me for ordering illegal substances.
reason, as i've deducted eventually, vendor mentioned wrong address on the package.
plus because package went to a different country and spent who knows how long in transit between different customs.
matter deteriorated because vendor sent THREE packages out of good intention to satisfy the customer and compensate for post delay.
eventually, after many many many visits to the police and courts all charges were dropped.
not ordering since then. just not worth it, so switched to "gardening" myself :)
who knows if post has my name on some red list.

Hi vikosh, thanks for sharing and sorry for the experience. Glad it all turned out ok. Can you provide more detail on how this happened? Was it in the UK? Did the police show up at your place? Did they search it and find anything else? How come the charges were dropped after the many visits to police and courts?
Sure.
It wasn't in the UK. Let's say Mainland Europe
I received a summon from the police. When I got there I was presented photos of the package addressed to my name and address and it's content. It was sealed in 3 layers of vacuum foil. Not sure the exact name.
Local post scanned it and opened it and started a criminal case against me.
Police was very suggestive to come and "just have a look at my place" and apparently just briefly stopping by the ministry of justice to grab a warrant. I said firm no as thankfully I known my rights.
I was asked if I'd like to do a THC test, to which I responded that I sure can do it, but the test is not a definite confirmation that the package was intended to me. I then tried to pee and nothing came out strangely, then I was offered water, which I gladly drunk (around 1,5 litres), waited for an hour, tried 2 more times. While being supervised by an officer. Well my body is my temple isn't? So my body didn't produce any fluids kkk
They said - well who else would know my address to which I said that my address is not secret and they should probably investigate who sent it. There were no return address.
I denied whatever allegations.
I said may be someone has I'll intentions towards me, who knows. They asked if I can think of anyone who would do that to me. I said nobody that I know of. But who knows.
It was all stretched through a bunch of visits and letters back and forth to the police and the court.
At the end charges were dropped, my record remained clear and all costs of the investigation and processing were taken on by the state.
That's more or less how it was. In brief.

I said may be someone has I'll intentions towards me, who knows. They asked if I can think of anyone who would do that to me. I said nobody that I know of. But who knows.
It was all stretched through a bunch of visits and letters back and forth to the police and the court.
At the end charges were dropped, my record remained clear and all costs of the investigation and processing were taken on by the state.
That's more or less how it was. In brief.
Thank you Vikosh. Helpful to hear, thumbs up for keeping your cool and glad it’s all over now.
On the return address issue, the last order I received had a return address sticker on envelope. This was one of the top suppliers on LB. I don't think this is a good idea, as they may be leading the cops straight to their own door if the package is intercepted. Not worth that bit of weed back to get busted guys
Had 25g of mdma caught from uk border force coming from Holland.received a letter basically saying I have so long to try and claim it or it will be destroyed.leyter said it’s more a civil matter than criminal.never heard anything else about it.also had plenty parcels sent to same address
UPDATE:contacted by police 14 months later,was due to go in for an interview then was phoned to say as it was so long ago and the amount,they are taking no further action.advised if I was doing it,to think again.
thank you for sharing this.
I wonder how do the letters actually get busted if one puts aside flaws in packaging, mentioning a correct address, printed and not handwritted, etc.
are there any sort of postal service protocols and procedures to identify potentially "illegal" parcels/letters, does anyone know?
I understand those practices may vary country by country, but i am sure they are pretty much copy pasted in most of the Europe.
I think it would be helpful

Many people have privacy/risk concerns that are not unreasonable. But a few questions remain:
1) How important is it to you to receive your meds? Life changing pain relief, freedom from side effects of prescription drugs and positive mental outlook are all reasons people's meds are important to them.
2) Does LB carry more risk than driving to visit (possibly known) people, to acquire a dubious/variable level of quality?
3) Or waiting for an unreliable person in a weird place?
One day all this glory could come to an end. But for now, no one cares about your eighth, so it's time to be happy! :-)

Customs do have sniffer dogs to sniff mail.... but what i have received so far has been double- vacuum packed with no smell (to me). I have had pills intercepted 3 times (no longer take them) and just got a warning letter that didn't involve police. At least in Ireland, you are allowed three warnings for possesion before you are charged. The police here will happily ignore someone smoking a joint if they aren't causing trouble.
If you are caught with weed above 7g though, and its wrapped, you're more likely charged as they will presume you are dealing.
I keep a stock indoors, and store some outside in shed. When I lived in an apartment, I would hang some in a small container on a string from window bars..... they wont find it then. It is also technically outside your property limits too. Most people chose similar hiding places in their property , thinking theyre crafty, but cops and thieves know this, and know where too look eg in containers, upper shelves of wardrobes etc. Hope this helps.

technology or privacy - which made btc so valuable?
now im using it i really like the tech aspect of btc, i like being able to see my transactions on a public record but that's in no way worth the hassle of moving the fiat into btc.
i do that only because i can buy here and that is because we are freed from the banking system.
which one of these factors makes a bitcoin so incredibly valuable?

Been looking into these vape cartridges anyone have any advice or file tips regarding these eg best sellers or types etc
Thanks
Thanks
Must say, tried few from different vendors and it felt OK, it just didn't give me the same kind of high. The best I had was from MJ concentrates, potent and tasty but still it ain't the same as bud for me. Although, it is great if you wanna get stoned and there isn't other way to do so. I prefer edibles, that gives me much better like a bud high.
MJConcentrates - just shatter and terps... he makes them himself so you know what you’re getting...there seems to be less around now because of the issues with vitamin e in some from the states. Can’t go wrong with MJC

Hey EddyE20
In all honesty ive tried a few now including a premium Cali cart. It just cant match bud for me the high is shorter lived and in my personal opinion the high seems to lack a level of complexity that you get from flower or hash.
For convenience and stealth in public they are excellent though.
MJc and Pope have some very well reviewed carts though that i have tried. A few of the guys on here swear by some of the US vendors for carts though

New Vendors...Rejoice or Beware??
Evening Biggas, seems that there has been a wave of new members/vendors this month so far and its only the 8th at time of writing. Given that a certain new vendor was rightly ousted as soon as their bizarrely priced listing was uploaded (hats off community by the way) it makes me wonder, should we be wary of new vendors at this time of year? Are we being offered a festive treat or a Christmas nightmare?!
My preferred vendors are chosen not just by their products, but their service and their ability to stand by both.
If anyone takes the plunge with a new vendor this festive period, I hope it goes well, please post your reviews and in the meanwhile congratulations to all users who have assisted in the recent clear out of flies in our wonderful ointment!
Peace people!

I'm still relatively new around here but I think I've got the general feel of LB down to be honest, it's great that the community rallies together when potential scammers enter the mix, gives a newbie a good understanding of what to look out for and avoid like the plague.
I've never used darknet markets so I don't have much to compare it to but the vendors I've used here have all been great, even when things go wrong. Hopefully LB is sticking around for as long, if not longer, than it has already been around for because honestly this place is amazing, no more dealing with spotty roadmen half my age on corners.
Big up to all those who look out for us all.

I have noticed an influx of new vendors popping up aswell. I would be wary and vet them yourself before making any decisions, if you do decide to make a purchase only spend what you can afford to lose :) There is one that popped up yesterday aswell i started a topic on, dan123 they are called. Be careful, and i appreciate posts like this, good on you for looking out for the community :)
"..only spend what you can afford to lose :)" This is really solid advice here and in other aspects of life. I'm sure we've all been in a few situations where practicing this would have saved us some trouble!
As for new vendors, when there is no rep all we can do is investigate ourselves and trust our guts. There are also red flags to look for as we seen this past week. Always buy the smallest amount for a tester. Just being vigilant will go a long way. Lucky for us there are a lot of established vendors with proven track records for those unwilling to risk it.
The 818 Headband from Bulkstop on paper sounds a little too good to be true, and looks pretty decent for the price. However the way the vendor communicates and provides evidence has made me take the plunge and order a 1/8th to test. So I think it all just depends on who you're dealing with.
I'll have a review up shortly after it arrives.

I look forward to your review and agree with that you said. So far had great communication with the seller and I was going to make a purchase but I’ll wait to see what you reckon
Very well put dude. This is also solid advice, glad this community is what it is, little biggy is like the last safe refuge there is. Hopefully it never goes away.
I agree the 818 headband does on the surface seem a little too good and it is so cheap, also when i check now the seller no longer has any items listed on their page which is a red flag. Something seems off there, unless its an honest mistake/error.

He might be adjusting prices or something, but still seems to be in communication so all good so far. I agree it does get you worried to see that though.
Hope it comes through like its supposed to mate, I look forward to the review- only spend what you can afford to lose....I wish I understood what this meant when I was younger!
Good on you too Lucius, il keep my eye for that one. Thing that gets me is festive season attracts scum from all angles, be that fake goods, Christmas burglaries or the scammers of LB so it seems.
I find it extremely suspicious when a vendor who has no sales, no votes and joined yesterday is willing to send out a kg to whoever is brave enough to order it. See, even writing that made me laugh out loud!
Personally, given the madness with the mail services I'll be staying with my favoured biggas, if any of the new maybes are still around in January I might take a chance. Hardly like there's a lack of variety though eh ;)
at this rate, i'm gonna need a bigger jar!

Exactly mate, i kept wondering why we were having so many vendors without realising it was almost Christmas haha! Most of the heavier scams take place around the festive season and with the current state of the dark net markets it will attract even more to little biggy than usual. If something feels off, it usually always is, wish i had listened to my gut so many occasions :p I may also take a chance if 1 or 2 happen to seem legit aha ;)
Well despite my previous negative experiences everyone knows about, i decided to take a chance on a new vendor recently! I must say: Glad i did this morning its like xmas already! So for me rejoicing at the mo
