I find your post confusing. What algo does a deleted post add value to? How are you going to issue coins, do you propose giving coins for posting? That would do nothing but create tons of shit posts.

All of the contributions to this community generate marginal value. Ok some more marginal than others but even a deleted post adds value to the algos.
Thi value can be realiased by issuing coins to the community and a payment processor accepting them.
Users will still need more tokens, this instantly creates open exchange with other crypto thus the entire ecosystem for a currency is here.

a deleted post would have training value to the algorithms though it would not be rewarded because off the behavioral effects on users. so shit posts are basically free work on behalf of. the community.
the minting of coins would be in proportion to value, presumably the wall algo has something like this at work already, it would need some evolution from the wall algo today but as the tech improves and the data gathers this becomes much easier.

Best Example of Communism?

Best Example of Communism?
some famous fails for sure but what are the success stories they dont tell us about?
Kerala in India has a long history of electing communist party politicians. It has the highest literacy rate and lowest infant mortality in India due to its policies.
German Peasant's War (where the word communism derives), Paris Commune, two Russian revolutions minus the Bolsheviks, Makhnochina, Spanish revolution, German revolution, May 68, etc. etc. etc.
Losing in the first half don't mean the game's over.
Losing in the first half don't mean the game's over.
Come on down voters give me a success story if you don't like the truth?? Bloody Marxists never except that it doesn't work. What ever iteration you can think of it WONT WORK!!!! everyone being the same sucks the fun out of life accept that hard work pays!
I’m sure there are loads they just don’t teach us about them. Capitalism doesn’t work either does it? Too many greedy pocket filling bastards. We are all the same having money doesn’t make you better than anyone else, the fact you are here spouting this shows what a sad state the world is in 😞
I'm not advocating for Communism but our society is full of people grafting their respective genitalia off that are still struggling financially. The idea that hard work pays ( properly) is a idea propagated by people seeking to exploit the labour of others. Nobody should need to claim benefits whilst working full time and yet...
Fwiw, I do advocate for a mixed economy. Nationalised energy, health, water, public transport etc and luxuries at the will of the free market.

You shouldn't be allowed to claim any benefits while in full time employment. It's crazy, we are basically subsidising employers who ought to be paying more.
And I hope that, one day, employers decide paying a living wage is more important than ever increasing profits such that in work benefits are no longer necessary. I propose a link between maximum and minimum pay within an organisation. Let's say; no pay ( overall package including bonuses, perks and dividends) higher than 5x the lowest full time salary.
it wouldn't even have to be a regulation, the government does business with so many companies and beneficiaries. if they don't have these multiples in place no people's funds.
employers don't make that call so much as owners do and when the owner is the stock market it's quite blind to anything but profits.
when the owners are the employees this changes priorities.

"that hard work pays" is often true and the capitalists don't only pontificate this to the masses they teach it to their children. children they practise communism with.
You should look into some unbiased reporting on the soviet Union, and some witness statements from the older generation who lived through it.
You will find that many of them tell you life was better in the USSR, than in post USSR Eastern Europe and Russia. Besides that they were several decades ahead of the west on womens rights and social services.
But like anything good, the Americans bring it down from the inside, or out, USSR, Great Britain, either way. Their media controls the narritive, and communism effects their ability to steal all the money. There is a reason Cinema is oversaturated with anti Communist rhetoric.
I'd honestly rather have the worst communist government, than be America number 2.

Have you ever listened to Konstantin Kisin? A Jewish family - He moved when he was 9 from the ussr to England at the end of the soviet Union just before the fall. His first hand account of his own life tells a very different story to what you describe.
under capitalism hard work has never paid and never will pay lmfao. communism actually prioritises labour, capitalism is about fat pigs at the top skimming off 99% of the profit we produce for them. do you not find it utterly insane tesco has like 5 different in-house brands with varying prices for essentially the same product? or that having less money means you have to settle for lower quality products that are worse for you and spoil faster?
So, you don't think lifting 4/5ths of the world out of relative poverty can be considered "paying off"?
OK Che, communism good 🤣👌
OK Che, communism good 🤣👌
do you have a source for this? not trying to challenge so much as i would like to learn more about it. maybe there is even a way the community could help.
Does the existence of those children make anything I said less true?
Strawman though. I didn't make a claim that there is no poverty in any country. I think you missed the qualifiers "relative" and "4/5ths" of the world.
I would say, that "starving" inarguably applies to way less than 1 in 5 children in the UK, US or anywhere in the West which makes your point about the ills of capitalism fairly moot in context.
I am no fan of cronyism, and I don't think capitalism is utopia, but it's insane to try and persuade anybody that communism would do better than this.
Thanks for the downvotes. I have over a thousand upvotes and less than 30 down.
Drop me a line next time you are tipping your bathwater into the atalantic. I'll do it too 🤣

You stop your quotations at an expedient place. If you would have been less disingenuous about your framing, you would be honest about the fact that the reason I said it was to point out that the users who's position I criticised (fairly and civilly) had no reply apart from the futile downvotes, as I was describing.
If I was trying to persuade anybody of anything about me with only what you have entered in your own quotation marks as the context then I'd tend to agree with you. Given that you have totally taken it out of the context it was said (I mean it was clear the previous person was making downvotes vexatiously, in place of an actual cogent argument against what I was saying.
I think you probably know that, but don't care because you disagree with me 🤣 how about tackle me with some argumental substance rather than downvotes.
So, yeah, moot point. Wind your neck in mush.

In other words, you have nothing worth saying because you are too vacuous to argue your way out of the little communist hole you dug 🤣

I came here to say this. Glad someone else knows what's going on.
It's gradual. Socialism is the route to communism. The NHS, which we are all trained from an early age to worship, was one of the first big steps in socialism. Benefits too.
Do you all remember when Richard Madeley of all people called out Susan Michie for being a member of the Communist party? She was a main player in the 'behaviour science' part of the scamdemic. Do you remember how we were all pressured into performing that awful clap for the NHS gesture? That was like something out of North Korea/China, where citizens are softly compelled into worshipping the state - like those obvious crocodile tears that were shed over Kim of N Korea.
Ugh, most people are too close to it to see it but it is ABUNDANTLY clear.
I would recommend anyone to watch Yuri Bezmenovs lecture on how the west gets subverted to Communism. He was a soviet defector who used to subvert countries and bring them into the soviet fold for a living.

The rich people who own the media want to push an ideology that stops them being able to hoarde all the wealth? care to explain how that makes sense?

I don't think Communism has ever worked as Capitalists are always creaming off the top.
A great book on the subject is Eat The Rich by the US satirist (and huge drug consumer) P.J. O'Rourke. I think his and my politics are probably polar opposites, but you could get fucked up at a party with him and have an amazing time. Anyway, good book. Breaks down all sorts of different political stances, and Good Communism is one chapter, and Bad Communism another. He's a funny guy, but maybe don't consider it as in depth reasoned academic analysis.
Ah, fuck. He died in 2022. No future parties.

It doesn't work
Never has, never will.
The communists and socialists will tell you that " it just hasn't been done properly"
Problem is, they always need other peoples money to spend...

The only people with positive stories perished in the gulags.

"It was a laugh in the beginning, but things went steeply downhill shortly after."
I don't think you'll find any. They've tried it and hundreds of millions died. Ok in principle but man's greed quickly takes over.
yeah it's the trickery of it from the knowers side and the sheer gullibility from the mark.
"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need"
To the naive person, this quote from Marx sounds like everyone will just pull their own weight for others and everyones needs will be met.
But with the benefit of hindsight, it is clearly a recipe for slave labour/the gulag system where each man is worked to his utmost but only has his basic needs met. Pretty clear with the benefit of hindsight.
There are no luxuries. Worked to the max, as much as your body can stand and in return you are provided a concrete bed, thin blanket and bowl of gruel twice a day. From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.

We are already experiencing communism even in the modern world , it's a hybrid between communism and democracy , based on feelings and personal I , me Happiness and DEI.
Don't work , hand outs , nobody knows what a woman is , men are all monsters and rapists , everyone can be whatever they FEEL , massive division - past remembering - payouts for past events , people split into groups protesting, government is everything - Marxsism 1:1 .
You already have 6 - 7 nations that have fallen fighting for this aspect -
Argentina - down - Saved by Milei
Columbia - down
Venezuela - down
Chile - About to fall
Salvador - Down - But saved by Bukele
Australia - About to fall
USA - About to fall - massive border issues and most cities are walking dead with people zombies being poor and homeless.
UK - about to crash due to importing victimhood across all minorities , brits on mute mode not even saying anything to anyone.
Go woke in a country and your entire society crashes.
Capitalism + Merrit Based society is the only one working.
This has been in the works tho since the 90s - starting with the feminisation of men and masculinisation of women - Split up with your men , you can do whatever you want , then they wake up at 40's with a carrer , no fam and alone crying on Socials crying for a men.
Men - don't react , be soft , toxic masculinity , every reaction has been deemed as something is wrong with you.
Therapy is all processed from the perspective of a woman , so men don't go to that.
Men just kill themselves at some point due to loneliness , women keep talking and talking and move on.
This is where you are at in 2024 in the Western World's
So majority of people need to stop and go back to standards otherwise Societies crash entirely , we see the results Live ongoing
North Korea is the only one truly communist spot ON and it's only because the majority of the population simply wants to live like that , they don't know anything else , never did , not every nation is attracted to this notion of rich , poor ,progress yourself some just want to live like in a big Foster care home totally controlled.

Communism is inherently tyrannical. History shows that. There aren’t any examples of success for a reason. It goes against the human spirit. Millions more died die to its tyranny than under the Nazis but you never see documentaries on the BBC or Netflix about Stalin, Mao or Pol Pot. Capitalism isn’t perfect by a long way but meritocracy is natural and drives progress. People to an extent sort themselves into roles and structures on natural ability and interest. Socialism just teaches people to rely on the state whilst the state gets to dictate how people think and behave. It’s ideological tyranny on the one extreme and financial exploitation of a liberal society by the few on the other. My grandad was a carpenter and paid his subs to his union for years until he acknowledged the financial and ideological corruption that it was based on.
There has never been one.
Governments, inherently are untrustworthy, the larger they are.
More proclivity to tyranny the smaller they are - which the libertarians are blind to.
There should be a lassez faire way to govern, with a balanced and adequately sized government.
Modern progressives don't like to hear this, but capitalism has lifted the world out of relative poverty, to the extent that nothing that came before it has been more beneficial to both quantity and quality of life.
Necessary evils are all around us. We think if we are selective about the ones we talk about, then the ones we don't want to talk about will disappear for some reason.

does your partner prefer you a bit stoned?
only 1 problem here
![[ask any bigga]](https://i.littlebiggy.net/images/u/w/300/NxHKMggZQxiiBNIG.png)
does your partner prefer you a bit stoned?
i find a 25-30% stoned is where they are at
I detect a certain look if I have started to talk total bollocks. And I may not be quite as funny as I think I am….apparently!😳
Me and my partner could have the craziest argument and not talk for days 😭 but if we have a spliff after we make up there and then 😇
I think the whole family does. I suspect it helps with my suspected neurodivergence/whatever the hell my parents tried to beat out of me and makes me a lot calmer, more focused and playful.
I have ADHD and se definitely prefer me a bit stoned. I can see se is concerned when I’m running out of green 😂
There is a fine line between being hilarious and not funny at all.
I reach this threshold regularly, all the time in fact.
I reach this threshold regularly, all the time in fact.
We're both stoners and she likes having someone to smoke with. Me I'll smoke alone and appreciate the silence 😂
My ex verbally dressed mr down once with ‘ yes you but yourself flowers all the time-don’t you?’
I just kept it shut.
Checkmate.
I just kept it shut.
Checkmate.
Not sure she prefers me high. Suppose I’m a lot more chilled. Like polly said tho I tend to think I’m hilarious! When in reality I’m probably not! Plus she’s a non smoker so lol
I don't even prefer me a bit stoned lol, I tend to just smoke on my down time or when I know I've gotta WFH all day. That's just me tho! To each their own

Hey guys, sorry this may be covered somewhere but I've put a dispute in and said to the seller I'd like a refund which they've agreed. What happens next please?
It's not the seller who refunds, transaxe will ask for your wallet address for your refund

Cheers bud. Is it the seller who has to arrange the refund, or will the borg automatically do? Thanks.
if the order is still in escrow the seller can refund by contacting the auto settlement borg, if its already released the seller must send you the funds directly, then you contact the borg to cancel the dispute.
As much as it almost hurts to ask what seems to be a stupid question—- where is this ‘dispute button’ please?
I typed dispute into the topic box and nothing was suggested?
I’ve gone to the vendors page and my sales page but cannot see DISPUTE anywhere.
Sorry to bother you

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.

Heavy Cannabis Use Linked to High Risk of Head, Neck Cancers
Most likely from smoking not edibles according to the study.
Jesus. This has hit me really hard. I’ve been smoking weed for 30 years. 11 weeks ago I had a huge (tennis ball sized) lump pop out of my neck. Dr diagnosed me as having an infection of the parotid gland (saliva gland). Antibiotics for a week, lump hung around for a month.
Had an ultrasound scan 3 weeks ago, turns out it’s a tumour 😞 Stopped smoking that day. 30 years crashed down on me during that one 15 min appointment.
Was immediately put in the NHS suspect cancer 2 week pathway. Had an FNA (biopsy) and an MRI scan 2 weeks ago. Here I am, awaiting the news. Avoided googling the shit outta this, then stumble across this post. Blown me away a bit. I mean, we all know smoking isn’t big or clever, but this has been the biggest wake up call of my life, obviously.
I am part of a very reputable profession, married for 25 years, 4 kids. The works. Here I am, absolutely petrified waiting on a phone call.
Long story sorry. Thought I’d share tho.

Thoughts are with you mate, I know it's easier to say than do but stay positive, Its been beaten before and will be again💜💚
We believe it's the smoking that is the problem..you cannot get away from the dangers! But working with cannabis oil doesn't yield the unwanted effects and works as the plant intended. Can even yield the psychedelic effects and change things on a spiritual level way more than smoking! We believe in it as a psychedelic medicine just like our medicine! It has the power to change lives :-) Get well soon brother! You can change things around with changing your mind ;)
Bud, I can only imagine what you're going through. Stay strong and here's hoping for good news. Sending positive energy your way.
Is the tumour in your parotid gland?
I had one in 2006. Turned out to be a pleomorphic adenoma- the most common kind. Thankfully it is benign and was out and touch wood I’m all good except I have a scar that makes me look like I was a ruffian in my younger years

Wow. This is fascinating for me to read. Thanks for sharing Asaddd.
They mentioned the possibility of a common type, that would need removing even if benign. I didn’t take in the name tho. Like I touched on, I’m (usually!) a rational person, but I haven’t googled anything about this. My wife has tho, a lot, she works within the NHS and has spoken to people in this field. We have an unspoken understanding atm and not really discussing it at all. Her mum passed away very young with a cancer in her neck, I know she’s in bits about this. This is breaking me inside.
It’s a weird limbo we’re in, just waiting for the test results. Should be this week by the looks. My gp phoned me Thursday just gone and explained who is looking at it and where, and the process of diagnosis.
The thought of facial surgery scares the bejesus outta me, but the thought of it not being malignant makes it more bearable.

I pray to god/ the universe you do have the benign type.
You do sound rational I think it’s a good mindset- one step at a time.
Please can you post updates?

Thank you for sharing your story. Try and keep your head up, just make sure you act on the doctor's advice and do so quickly. Please keep away from smoking anything at all now though mate, for you and yours.
Much love to you catt and heartfelt thanks for sharing your story.
May I ask for the benefit of all of us - do you only smoke weed or baccy too?

Thank you Ike.
So I have smoked weed with tobacco for these 30 years. Smoked cigarettes in the 90s, early 00s, then rolling tobacco. Never a ‘heavy’ fag smoker really, but a heavy joint smoker through (weed and tobacco). Bought a mighty vape last year in an effort to kick my combustion habbit. Used it twice as I really didn’t get in with it. Not smoked anything since my scan that confirmed a tumour, 4 weeks ago. Never found quitting so easy. Currently enjoying the benefits of not having a dependency of any sorts for the first time in my adult life. Felling a better dad and husband for it tbh.
Used a lot of chemicals in those 90s/00s years and have had an ‘unhealthy’ relationship with alcohol since covid, which I have got on top of over the last 9 months.
So I have smoked weed with tobacco for these 30 years. Smoked cigarettes in the 90s, early 00s, then rolling tobacco. Never a ‘heavy’ fag smoker really, but a heavy joint smoker through (weed and tobacco). Bought a mighty vape last year in an effort to kick my combustion habbit.

I hope it all works out for you bro! I got a Mighty and tried quitting combustion, was underwhelmed for a long time. Eventually I got a bong adapter for the Mighty to help cool the vapour and it made it more enjoyable than smoking for me.
Sending our love and positive vibes we hope this difficult time in your life turns out that everything is ok in the end stay strong brother.

I mean, that makes sense.. I don't think anything is really *supposed* to be combusted and inhaled. I know so many people already preach and I don't just wanna be another one, but dry herb vapes truly are a great way to consume. Bud lasts longer, tastes better AND you get avb to use in edibles at the end! I'll still be bongin' and spliffin' it up but it's great to have so many options nowadays
No doubt dry herb vaping is almost certainly way better in terms of health risks than smoking (I also do it as well as edibles). On the other hand, the research on the health risks for dry herb vaping is still extremely limited. Inhaling hot particulates (which still happens with vaping) tends to be no bueno for health.
Very true. We're still kind of in the infancy of cannabis research. We know the long term effects of cigarettes and alcohol but, with the legality of weed over the years, we've still got so many unanswered questions about it. And dry herb vapes really haven't been around that long either. I just hope that we get some conclusive answers in our lifetimes...
I think carts are going to prove a massive roadblock for cannabis development and freedom because of growing health concerns. WithTHCA, D8 & D10 workarounds these are available all across N.America now and the demand is huge with consumers able to puff through 1ml carts or more every single day. Chemical contamination is rife. These things ARE addictive. California is reporting rapidly increasing needs for specialist pulmonary treatments amongst all ages and new clinics are opening rapidly.
Its just the tip of the iceberg...
Its just the tip of the iceberg...
As much as I want to believe that the convenience and discretion of carts is a positive thing, sadly you're 100% spot on. People doing blinkers and landing themselves in hospital isn't an uncommon occurrence in the US, I think seby G (weedtuber) had an incident like that. People going through a gram of 90%+ THC distillate in a day is just insane on so many levels. And as far as contaminants, I 100% believe there's more contaminated carts in the world than legit ones. By a big margin. From pesticides and vitamin E acetate all the way up to spice-laden disposables now prevalent across the UK. It's really a worrying trend and the demand for carts is going up by the day.....
No doubt.
I also wonder if a large part of the emergence of cannabis hyperemesis syndrome as a thing can be linked to heavy usage of carts and concentrates. I suspect it's usually It's hard to get sufficient THC to cause those symptoms from plain old bud.

I wouldn't be surprised at all tbh, 900mg of pure THC every single day cannot be a good thing. Plus there's no entourage effect with disty carts, which is good for some but I personally think the other terps and cannabinoids are what "makes" a high. Even so, rosin/live resin carts must still have 70%+ THC a lot of the time. Overconsumption is the worst thing anyone can do with weed imo, stay within your limits and enjoy it! Don't just get to an 11/10 high all day every day

little biggy theme song?
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...

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

ADHD meds or advice
noopept is a relatively benign peptide developed for cosmonauts in the 1970s. it has a clean record since then and is very helpful for focus
ADHD meds or advice
Any neurodivergent biggies here?
Been on the waiting list for 2 and a half years at this point.
I can’t get shit done. Life’s a struggle tbh.
My tolerance has gone way up so need to take a t-break.
Maybe you use a product on here that could help me? Cheers?
Any input welcome 💜

So I did the route where the Dr's medicated me, honestly don't put yourself through that. I found I felt focused but other aspects I was less focused, my anger levels were through the roof and I could flip over the most minor stuff! I've now been clear of meds for around 7-8 months now. I have dabbled a bit in shrooms, had some messages come through (I don't know whether that was my subconscious talking to me). I still find day to day stuff a struggle but who doesn't, am I right?
I keep seeing some ads for adhd apps which can help, they add routine to your life which it seems you are lacking. Drink plenty of water, exercise (I should do this myself) read, learn a new skill.
One of my mains struggles as an adhd adult is a lot of the advice given to me involved doing what I enjoy, which is where my issue came. I had gotten to a point where I didn't know what I enjoyed anymore, some days I still don't. That's a difficult hurdle to overcome or at least it was for me!
You got this! I believe in you!
Big Love and Guidance 🐄💚

I recommend rso personally best thing I've found to help with concentration in small doses. I don't recommend the doctors amphetamine based meds personally but some people do find they help
Also when you get get your brain in gear for it exercise this was the first sign in me I was obsessed with with exercise way past the point of a normal kid 😆

I'm Audhd and officially unmedicated, gf is adhd and medicated but that has all been private cos of the waiting list. She finds it really helps her, and I've known others it has worked for but also there are lots who find it doesn't work so well for them.
I don't really have an awful lot of advice other than chase up the place that you're waiting for, and ask to be put on cancellations list or whatever it is called so they call you if someone cancels their appointment.

We’re Entering an AI Price-Fixing Dystopia
Algorithmic price-fixing appears to be spreading to more and more industries. And existing laws may not be equipped to stop it.
This is fascinating, but we are handing something else over to AI, because it’s smarter than us. I think we are close to politicians asking it “how to run a country which will in turn, enrich my family and friends”. Or are we already there?

can the USA be fixed?
100%, this is always the u.s. advantage but politicians run on keeping people out not in
can the USA be fixed?
in England we grew up loving American cowboy movies and the hero was always the same: quiet, cool and strong. to an outsider it seems this guy is dead and the cunt that owns the town and is always looking for more is the new America
Yes, if people like the ones at Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston become leaders.
there has been so much more killing since then and as beautiful as this inspiration is, its hard to imagine there is enough love anywhere to stop the mass murder that is part of regular life now
Nasa is the best ambassador the US has, if they took 1/3 of the military budget and put into space travel the US would be back like Jordan.
Space travel for what? Branson is going to operate consumer flights, but how many times can billionaires fly to ISS before they get bored? Not many people can afford $150k for a short vacation.
tourism will always remain in the back seat. the commercialization of space has been about serving the planet as a whole with communications, its brought up the un-cabled world just like mobile phones have brought up the last mile. there is huge potential in energy production and distribution coming next.
space travel for discovery, learning and inspiration. the world could really use a moment of peaceful triumph.
Branson has sold tickets for twenty years without delivering a ride not sure how he is relevant to anything here.
Elon Musk estimates 5-10 years to get to Mars. At present the cost is $1 Billion per ton, so it'd need to be 1/1000th of the cost, apparently. The ship will also need to be reusable.
Traveling Mars is also not a point and shoot mission. You have to coordinate launches with the alignment of the planets' orbits to travel the shortest distance and not fly past the sun. This also requires a stay on Mars as you wait for safe realignment after landing. Current technology estimates a 21 month round-trip given a ~3 month stay on Mars. Money is not the biggest hurdle.
go open source, add new states, virtual citizenship and most of all healthy competition with other nations not war
Competition in what? Our largest industries are healthcare and pharma. Getting Americans to change is a huge hurdle.
competition for new citizens, with decreasing population the game is going to change and the usa at least remembers how to play
No, this country is cursed, theres a lot of bad karma waiting.

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

Inheritance tax should be abolished?
How did we let the government impose an inheritance con tax, on our loved ones already taxed belongings.
It's as if they don't already tax everything we buy or do, but to re tax a dead person's belongings after they've paid tax all their life is morally wrong, where's the ethic in that?..

I feel that inheritance tax is a good thing, however, it should not go to the treasury, but instead to the local authority. In this way it benefits the community they were a part of, rather than a meaningless black hole of untraceable generic funding, that is as likely to be spent on Boris Johnsons security guards as it is something actually worthwhile. I feel the same about funds of closed companies automatically going to the treasury. It should be used locally where they need the money.
Nope. The most recent HMRC statistics show less than 4% of estates paid inheritance tax in 2020–21. This will probably rise to over 7% by 2032–33. Only the most wealthy estates pay it.
the most wealthy estates do not pay, they have trusts, declarations of agriculture or business.
that's why a third of the fucking country is in the hands of "nobility".
that's why a third of the fucking country is in the hands of "nobility".
people say this and they wont pay much after deductions. like how much money do you have? I bet its not enough to warrant the complaint. but in other news, why dont you complain about what they spend the money on? a healthy tax base and actually interesting spending is great, you build pretty great place to live that way. Instead its gazilllions in civil service wages for them to do nonsense tasks for 60 years. or NHS spending that allows people with a bent toe to get sattelite laser surgery costing 5trillion. shit like that, complain about spending not tax.
Does it not bother you that your inheritance has already been taxed by the person it belonged to, then again once inherited by that same government?..
It's total unacceptable, morally and ethically wrong on many levels..
I couldn't care if they want to spend however much on certain things, what I do care about is getting scammed by the government by taking a double stab at you with your inheritance.
Look at pensions now, working all your life paying stamp for pensions. Once you retire and you start claiming it, you get taxed again?
Can someone else surely see the wrong doing by here?..
If someone dies they want you to pay tax, if you get paid they want you to pay tax, even when you bloody eat you pay taxes, good job there isn't a sleeping tax aswel ffs

This is what the vast majority of wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few. We should tax inheritance at 80% over a few million quid, that'd fix the fucking schools. Or do you prefer toffs to have a better bottle of wine then schools that don't leak when it rains?

I'd prefer not to have my money stolen in the 1st place than beseeching to a plutocracy to get a little back.
and those roads you walk on, and the parks and schools? Who pays for those if not us? Calling taxation stolen money makes you sound like a MAGA lunatic.
Feel free to go live in the forest in some third world country if you don't want to pay tax to make a better world for all. Oh, you've not done that? why ever not?

in those countries you apparently despise the worst narco terrorists dribble out these same trinkets. yet they don't come close to the kill rate. governments are by far the largest murderers on the planet and taxes (effectively collected at gunpoint) are what pay for it. this has been consistent throughout history.
but hell yes id be happy to pay for parks, recreation and lots of things short of murder and plutonic corruption.
but hell yes id be happy to pay for parks, recreation and lots of things short of murder and plutonic corruption.
The infrastructure of the country is what has allowed an individual to accumulate the wealth. If someone is so greedy that they think it is preposterous to pay inheritance tax they are free to live elsewhere. The problem of the ultra-wealthy finding ways around paying any taxes at all is another issue of course. And yes the country is still mired in feudalism hence the landed gentry still being around and anachronisms such as hereditary peers sitting in the house of lords.

Hardwired for fairness
My postman is obviously a stoner, just the way he carries the back all slung back on his shoulder gives it away but he also looks like Wayne (or Garth I can't remember which one is which). I keep thinking I should offer him a bowl of the good shit but he delivers so much weed to me I think I'd be putting him in a bad position.
You got me.

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

if a cigarette is a fag what is a joint?

I thought a spliff was weed mixed with tobacco and a joint is purely weed.
Seems to be that way in America anyway.

Americans don't mix tobacco when the roll up, so a small skinny roll is a Joint.
But a hefty fatty roll is called a Blunt.
In Europe we tend to call a tobacco mixed with weed roll, a Joint or Spliff, Doobie, Zoot, Reefa etc.
But a pure cannabis roll whether it's small or huge is usually referred to as a blunt in EU

Plants can scream
The scientists use machine learning to interpret the sounds of plants under stress.
Totally! When we went on a safari in South Africa the ranger told us about how when animals graze, the grass "scream" and send singles to the surrounding area which makes the animals move on .... And then you have the fungi systems under trees - now that's as a world of its own that communicates to each other, connecting for miles and miles, looking after one another - the intelligence is mind blowing - humans could learn a lot if only they connected more with them by using the amazing medicines we have on LB! peace and love to you all
The fungi system blows my mind. Apparently a healthy tree can send nutrients to help a dying tree by communicating through the fungal network. Oh my…..😵💫
I heard that too and apparently it's not species specific, it will help any tree in need - why aren't humans.......
I totally agree! Earth is so much more complex than we comprehend. It's amazing and beautiful to connect with the others sharing this beautiful little blue dot in Space.
I've experienced some incredible meditations where I was taken to places and beings that I can't describe. Personally I have never gone so far or deep on any of the medicines that I have used from here. So far the meds help me better with day to day challenges, but I have yet to take the cosmic leaps that occur during meditation.
Having said that I also have to say that meds on this site have helped me be ABLE to meditate. Quieting the mind is not easy, a bit of help is always a good thing.

The smell of freshly cut grass that humans seem to love is actually a warning signal that it’s under attack, to warn all the other grass…😭 makes me not want to mow the lawn 😂 nature is crazy good, I’m pretty sure humans are the only species that actually devolve over time rather than evolve!
I don’t think anyone really cares about the grass, if I’m honest. I would defo argue that we’re devolving as a species. We’re getting more stupid on the whole, mainly I think due to the crap food that has become so popular. But that’s a whole other rant. 😁
You can only be, sure if they love the land more than money. Factory farms with corporate owners - forget it. They're in it for the profit and don't care what nefarious means they use to get more money.
Why do you think Family farms have been systematically targeted and taken? It's not easy to fight the big money when you're just a skint little person that actually loves to see their land and animals thrive naturally.

THANK YOU!!! I learned about this at least 30 years ago. It's why I'm not a vegetarian, I believe that all things are sentient. Just because we don't hear them, or see them in action is because of human limitations...and hubris!
What kind of twisted creature would smoke the reproductive organs of another being for a laugh ?
Sorry to be that annoying vegan guy , but I have to push back in that line of reasoning.
There's a difference between the suffering of an animal and the suffering of a plant.
Animals have brains and suffer like we do , but plants literally don't mind.

Yes, plants DO mind. Just because you can't communicate with them does not mean that they are not sentient in their own way. Please don't assume that a brain is the ultimate organ. As science has progressed we have learned that there are neural clusters in different areas of our bodies actually work like assistant brains. That's the best way I can explain it.
Notice that I do not attack your choice to be vegan. That works well for many folks. My concerns are directed towards ANY dietary choices. 1) How processed is the product? 2) How much is wasted?

I'm aware that plants can send signals through their cells and react to stimuli , but I've seen no more evidence of a mind in a plant than I have in a rock.
Neural clusters are not the same as brains. Brains are organs that can learn in real time , neural clusters cannot , they just react.
I don't attack anyone's choices either , but if you're concerned about waste then the vegan diet is by far the least wasteful , as it only requires a fraction of the land and resources since no animals need to be fed.

I've known this for way over a decade, it was a very unpleasant experience when i heard them.
When i think back it was like hearing them through my third ear so to speak, but when it happened, at that time i realized what was going on.
Was around 10 full grown aloe plants, beautiful specimens, their fate all came at same time, was very quick, and that's when i heard them.
So again, this is something i've known for a very long time, just sayin', have a good one biggas.✌️
I also believe in birds, animals ESP abilities, especially birds.

That must have been very traumatic for you, I'm sorry. I agree with you about all 'living' and 'non-living' things. All of existence is made of the same stuff. We are not above any other entity, we are part of the grand scheme.
You'd probably enjoy the ravens that talk to me when I feed them. I don't hear them the way you do...yet.

I do talk to the birds if i hear something unusual outside, just imitate them.
However the 'good birds' which is what the word budgie comes from in native australian, i can hear them a lot, know what they want and can have fun with them.
Have fun with them in bird song.
When i had 7 they all had there own song, same with my guys now, one's is just beautiful and the other's is very clever, always changing it up and copying me as i copy him.😁 Budgies have huge personality, they're the golden retreiver of the avian world.
I used to keep 7 fly round me till i started the night shift. Just couple guys now. And doggo.😁
But yes the plants, the aloe plants, was a tragedy it wouldn't have happened if i'd known.
Same kinda thing with spiders, spiders have spirits, always avoid ending ones life.👍
We're blessed to share the earth with the amazing animals and flora.
Take care Rider!❤️👊

Depends who you blow, not who you know.
This was built on reclaimed swamp with horse and cart.
A year to two years before power tools were invented.
It was up for 6 months before most of the structures were dismantled or destroyed, same for all the fairs.
There have been many and all share beautiful architecture.
The London exposition was at Crystal Palace where the building was erected in 6 months apparently!!

Like lithium sourcing in Africa the worst kind of child labour imaginable in brutal conditions supported by every western country and at this point 99% of the western public;don’t ask don’t tell situation

Feudalism is many times older than capitalism, and ordained by God. Still fell like a sack of shit.
It'll have a different name and iconography but communism still the only alternative. Just no leaders, no parties, no states, max automation.

The soviet in the tongue in cheek Soviet Union, means workers' councils. One person, one vote, with an elected delegate representing that be recalled anytime. One council for each workplace, and so on, all the way up. By function, it'd preclude states, parties or leaders.
capitalism is an economic system, and an excellent one at that. it is not, however, a political, philosophical or ethical system. adam smith himself pointed out that without temper from (for him, christian) ethics it would become monstrous. obviously, nobody believes any of that hypocritical, puerile (christian) shite anymore, but that is what needs replacing - the moral component. hard right ideologues that think the market knows best, and that money is some sort of god to be worshipped are stupid shits, and have been shown to be. they have fucked up everything they have touched and only crazy frightened old people don't see that. do not forget, though that socialists have not just fucked up everything they have touched, they have murdered, oppressed and starved people in ways that ghengis khan would have been ashamed of. capitalism will work fine once we all realise that being richer than everyone else is a mug's game and does not make you happy. we all just need to get by and look after each other, and i think we'll find that if that's what we want to use it for, capitalism's actually pretty good for purpose. this is all happening anyway, you don't need to do anything. how much shit gets fucked up in the meantime by greedy stupid dickheads who think enumerated economic success is any measure of anything other than what a selfish worthless shit you're prepared to be, or that it will ever make anyone actually happy, well, we'll see. in the meantime, live your life and stop trying to find something easy to blame for what's wrong with it. politicians will not save us, maybe if we stop asking them to they'll go back to doing their actual jobs (running the civil service, justice system and defence) and stop fucking everything up instead. maybe if we all stop glorifying the wealthy and powerful, they'll stop even being arsed to be wealthy and powerful (i mean, it looks like a fucking nightmare to me - why the fuck would you bother if you weren't being egged on the whole time and told that it's the only way anyone matters) and we can all just get on with looking out for each other and fostering the sorts of communities that actually do make people happy. it won't happen overnight, and it won't fix everything, but it won't happen at all if we keep expecting miracles and keep trying to tear down everything that lets us live better than people ever have. capitalism does not suck, it where all of our prosperity and freedom comes from, it is why we are not living in the squalor, violence and oppression of the middle ages any more - stop trying to tear it down, just live better, take moral responsibilty for your own life and we will all have the moral high ground to shame people who accumulate wealth and power beyond what is healthy. eventually. in about 4026. if we do not all burn or starve first. there isn't really an alternative, though... and, i mean you can order weed on the fucking internet these days!!! whaddya want out of life???
"and, i mean you can order weed on the fucking internet these days!!! whaddya want out of life??" yeah exactly wtf is wrong with people lol
Capitalism inherently involves exploiting others for profit. Adding moral considerations alone doesn’t address this fundamental issue. Such changes would transform the system into something that isn’t capitalism.
Start building guillotine napping stations for all billionaires to have a nice lil lay down, acquire and distribute the hoarded resources. Job done. EDIT: to highlight i am being deliberately OTT btw n not literally advocating mass execution. but it does feel like this whole system needs an overhaul, crazy how much the top 1% has hoarded compared to the rest of the world 🤷♂️ how is that just?
"distribute the hoarded resources" exactly, it really is wealth hoarding. Just make wealth cap, a big one $300M... How many fucking yachts do you need, how many houses...etc. Once your wonderful business acumen took you to cap level you get a medal, respect and you go onto super wall of best humans ie elite celebrities and your additional profits get distributed to less fortunate who we're not lucky to be born smart or healthy or rich or whatever.. It's just life lottery most the time nothing to do with your efforts.. Your success can not be justified.. You don't choose your genes... Is there really good argument against wealth cap?
not much of the rich's wealth is in luxury items. it's mostly capital for production.
We need to try to start standing up for what is right and see through what the political elites are implementing all over Europe.
Between the Bilderberg group and the likes of George Soros who funds all the chaos and gets very rich from the volatility that is creates in the markets.
Every time there is a major problem all the government does is rush in new laws to clamp us down even more, they are not interested in harmony it does not fit there narrative they like to divide and conquer and keep us in small groups as we are easier to control.
The Catholic church is taking it up the Gary glitter also along with the Church of England who are just as bad all whilst the UN seems to be building an army in Europe.
This is a by proxy war we are in and it is only going to get worse from here the only way we can stop this is by all standing together as humans and taking on this tyranny.
There are people being found frozen to death in cars in the UK at the moment , big groups of people living in tents in the woods right now ffs!!.
There is an evil agenda at play that these sick inbreed elites are trying to hide from us all and unless we all stand together we are all going to get screwed even more.
We would rather watch sky sports and fuck about on FB and Insta than get off out backsides and do what is right.
The whole thing stinks and needs to be called out and stop calling people racist for pointing out the truth.

Yeah nonsense is the right word for it - it makes it quite difficult to read at times. i feel it’s pretty lazy too, we’re not asking for Shakespeare but cmon - not hard to put together couple of sentences or bullet points.
I actually enjoy seeing the odd spelling errors these days 😅 least I know some time/effort has been spent by a vendor. The whole AI gibberish just gives an air of fakeness about it too - doesn’t give me confidence in a product tbh.

Also alien head was the only vendor I know that was selling 0.5g for reviews lol just like you ..

You can honestly think what you want but I’ve only just heard of LB recently and decided to branch out. I couldn’t tell you who “AlienHead” is.
As i said in my post, the feedback has been taken and we have dialled it back and begun to take product photos, and a more personal touch to our posts. Our listings are already written by hand however 🤷
The Handler is simply just sticking with the theme of my profile.. many people have loved the AGENT 47 theme & vibe especially with our comms & packaging.
Don’t know what you intend with this post but I’m here strictly to provide a quality service not a shoddy one 👌

Glad somebody said it 😂 it’s a little tiresome as you can spot it a mile off, it can be useful but most of the time it’s like a thesaurus has spewed on the page, definitely not how a human would speak/write.
It's so easy to spot!! 😂
I mean cmon vendors just take the time to write what you want. I'm glad it's not just me... I think AI marketing has a negative effect lol

I personally think as long as it isn’t overdone & there is still a human behind the profile with high quality communication, products, customer service etc is necessary.
We will be using product photos taken with a professional camera alongside our artwork to enhance our listings.
Our product listings are handwritten too.
This is good feedback though that we have taken in mind for our future growth.
We apologise if we have overdone it - we intend to come across as premium and discreet

You are a Simulation & Physics Can Prove It (video)

The assumption that the cat is alive or dead is in error in simulation theory because there is no cat until the box is opened.
There is no box until it is observed.
Why waste computing resources rendering a cat, or it’s box, until it’s actually needed.
So, in simulation theory. Schroedinger’s cat becomes irrelevant. Death and the cat’s existential state. Hasn’t happened yet.
Which is nice. I always had a soft-spot for the dead/alive cat.
I was always sad that some nutter put the cat in the box in the first place. Evil bastard.

I think it was Terry Pratchett who observed that after forcing a cat into a small box 'the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious'
Did we simulate that, because that's indicative of reality?!

Sounds weird I know, but do you think that cannabis attracts us to further itself? I mean it's a stationary plant that has very little means of spreading and evolving in the wild. But since we have discovered its usefulness for ourselves we have helped it evolve into what it is today. And In return it makes itself stronger and more controllable for our will. It is well known that plants attract bees and not the other way around so what's to say they aren't doing the same to us?
Love this thought and it reconciles, we are serving cannabis' genetic purpose:
fecundity - more greenhouses every day
fidelity - our buyer reviews maintain integrity
longevity - humans have basically coupled their own survival to cannabis, as long as we are around it's going to be with us.

I agree, and it applies to almost everything we grow/farm and consume (the exceptions being those we've hunted things to extinction). You can absolutely see it as them exploiting us for their own ends.
I like to see apples and other fruit exploiting animals and birds, who not only distribute their seeds further than the air could carry them, but plant them nicely in a lump of rich fertiliser for them.
By the way, it's e^{i*pi} that's equal to -1 (the exponent is pi times i, not pi divided by i)

Cannabis will also be here after we are gone to be picked up by aliens who wind up getting super smart from it and making this universe and the Circle Continues...
Evolution. There's no thought process behind it all...it just happens. Cannabis evolved to have flowers because birds and animals were eating the cannabis with the nicest flowers and spreading that about. Cannabis doesn't make itself stronger, its selectively bred to be stronger.
Have a look at what normal veg used to look like before selective breeding. Corn looks like a completely different plant than what it used to now.

Check out The Botany of Desire by Michael Pollan. It’s a whole book on this exact subject. I can’t recall exactly but I think it looks at apples, cannabis and tulips as examples of how some plant species have thrived by “getting” humans to cultivate them.

You’re welcome! I just finished the marijuana section and I think it’s beautifully written. I love the combination of science, literature and experience and he genuinely strives to capture what being “high” actually is and why it matters. How everyday experiences are made banal by our minds to prevent sensory overload but how being high plays with our short term memory reintroducing the “wonder” into the simplest things! I totally get it!
I’m going to look up his other books too! 😍

One day the plant will reclaim all the money that has ever changed hands in it's name, it will then have enough to take over the world, a bit like A day of the Triffids, the world would smell great.
Shit I've never considered this, just like how bugs are attracted to the bright colorful flowers....

It's even more stark if you view flowers in ultraviolet light (the range that insects see in), a whole extra bunch of patterns appear. Orchids are excellent mimics of whole insects, the pollinator thinks it's gonna get a shag out of it! Same applies to some flowers that use small birds (e.g. hummingbirds) to spread their pollen.
There is that lovely thought that all psychedelic plants express themselves via symbiotic communion with us and other conscious living things. They have evolved in parallel to conscious beings. We also have the perfect nervous system for them to attach themselves to.

Sorry to go all Sheldon Cooper on you but.. it's a no for me.
Cannabis evolved to produce THC as an evolutionary defence mechanism because it is particularly susceptible to pathogens.
It's clear that the consequences of that are of great benefit to some - but I think it is a better question to wonder if all those consequences are a coincidence or by intelligent design in the first place. Given that we have ALOT of cannibinoid receptors - the coincidence seems pretty astounding.
Given this - I do wonder if there is an epigenetic factor to the differences in strength between strains as well as a domestication factor.

Fascinating thought but like other species on this planet we have chosen it to be one that we have removed its natural evolution through selective breeding,we do this with both animals and plants. Most people forget that before the big corporations started the anti-cannabis movement in governments it was widely used in everyday life and not just to smoke it was the basis for many things and also employed lots of people and any half decent apothecary would have cannabis products instead of opium products.
Unfortunately the bad guys won but slowly cannabis is making a comeback from all the lies told about it.

once you transcend darwinian evolution the only thing left is intelligent design. i guess that will take a while
Cannabis is a Master plant like Ayahuasca, Peyote, Mushrooms etc. It has been used for centuries by shamans not only for its healing properties but also for the expanding of consciousness. It is our over use of this plant and our breading of it for higher THC levels that is likely not always the best course of action. Once we go back to a way of using it ceremonialy and respecting it as such is when She can finally work in the way that she has been working since time began. Many are sick from over use these days because we have lost this reverence and respect it needs to be up there with all other psychedelics. It is attracting us like a double edge sword…we either understand and respect her power to obtain the healing we need in this time to be able to evolve with the shift on consciousness or we keep on using and abusing her and in the end it will always only be us that suffer…plants don’t need us and will long survive once we perish …just a thought;-)

New U.K. antibiotic vendor

New U.K. antibiotic vendor
I have noticed there are no other vendors selling antibiotics from the U.K. so I started one!
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
So how do u even know which antibiotic is required for health elements . Ie ear infections are different medication than say the clap or if u have an infected tattoo . I cant see how stocking up on meds u dont know how to use is any good at all for the general public .
The most common treatment and dosage for ear infections is amoxicillin (penicillin). 500mg every 8 hours for 7 days.
Most common for what kind of ear infection? I suppose you'd need a doctor to diagnose that first!
even your most magical medicine man is going to go with amoxicillin 1st then usually ciprofloxacin.
at this point, random guy selling pills online is easier to trust than big pharma lol
please excuse my naivety, but why would one need to buy a prescription medicine from an online market? i know some things can be used to make other things but i know nothing about this area
is it more of a "stocking up in case shit hits the fan" thing? or perhaps this helps some people have to wait 2 months to get a doctors appointment / prescription?

It's hard to get antibiotics of a doctor or even if you have toothache with waiting lists high. People have sold antibiotics down the bottom of the items page for years on here just not from this country.
I have experienced this first hand, family member with very bad cough (over a long period of time, impacting sleep and general well-being/health both physical and mental) and possible chest infection told to wait by a GP instead of having a possible treatment. This prolonging the agony of the individual. Eventually they were given said antibiotics but after an unpleasant and unnecessary wait IE made em jump through hoops. Pretty inhumane. Also wasn’t the vile health Secretary, Tory ratbag Coffey caught selling antibiotics on or admitting doing so?
Just a few points for discussion there.

Yes, there is already a different vendor that has been selling antibiotics for a while now.
How to ruin LB in one swift step. Do not step on the toes of the drug companies.

Also free in Scotland and cheaper on the NHS in England.
Weed is sold by drug companies too In the uk. Antibiotics have been sold on LB for many years, by an Indian seller. He/she would ship them from India to the uk and it never caused a shut down far as I am aware.
Personally I think 1 box would be enough especially the full strength 500mg Amoxicillin. Where I am if your lucky enough to get them prescribed from your GP. They either give you 7 day course of 250mg or 5 day Course of the 500mg 3 a day. . if I needed any ? Would only need 1 box.(edit )but thinking this over more, if I were to buy 2 boxes I'd have 42 tablets which would be enough for 3 doses.depending on how many you need to take on each occasion? Still expensive though when 2 boxes would be the cost of a Prescription around a 10er each 🤔

A human right to be stoned
What I feed my brain is up to me and any employer or government that is dumb enough to look at this instead of my work and deeds is less qualified than I am.
I used to work for sales in a major brewing business starting in the late 80's and drinking at work was a huge part of the culture. We had replica pub bars in all our offices that were fully stocked and free all hours. We were expected to get out in the trade and drink with our customers. We would entertain around the world with massive drinking sessions, often with visits to breweries. Our sales meetings didn't just end in a pub they often started in a pub! Despite having company cars we had taxi and expense accounts to get us home or to a hotel when we couldn't even see to drive.The rationale was- "well we ain't selling candy!"....
But none of that was ever accepted as an excuse not to do a great job, and thats what you were measured on. If you didn't you were instant toast.
Oh boy how times have changed....absolutely zero of that happens today....

Everyone deserves their medicine. It’s unfair that people can drink and people cannot smoke.
Rights are abstract and only exist when they have someone to enforce them... In the current legal climate, I wish you all the luck in the world!
If someone opposes someone's inherent rights, which party gains the favourable position? The right-holder or the right-opposer?
Always been an argument for us. We work, we go to the gym, we eat well, very rarely drink, exercise regularly, maintain healthy relationships. With that, we’re going to f*ucking smoke!!

Greatest Comedy Sketches Of All Time
Let's create a compilation.hoping to see some that may have flown under my radar..anyways....for your consideration...Peter Cook and Dudley Moore 'The Frog & Peach'
Great post, I got lost down a wormhole of genius sketches last night trying to pick my favourite and i couldnt so i figured id come back today and keep it easy.
Pete and Dud though 💜💚
Pete and Dud though 💜💚
Not quite a sketch I guess but immediately thouguht of this ^ love this series of interviews. Two geniuses.
Absolutely loved this. Completely unscripted...Two absolute satirical heavyweights and two of the finest comic minds to have ever lived....only wish Peter Cook was around longer to develop a long and fruitful working relationship with Chris Morris
For sure, and if only! But at least we have these utter gems, I'm thankful for that :)
Chris's Morris's own darkly disturbing piece of comedy genius 'Jam" produced its share of memorable moments....this absolutely being one...
Brilliant. I straightaway thought of Jam too - so many good scenes there - and his radio series Blue Jam before that. The monologue above is quite a trip. So good stoned as well :D
Most of the clips i struggled to choose between when this was first posted had Chris Morris involved in some way, obviously Jam, Brass Eye and The Day today are all genius but hes had a hand in so many other great comedy moments, like as the narrator here...
Fantastic - just my sort of comedy! I missed this first time round. Big fan of Spaced, League, Big Train, etc. AND ambient music. Gonna listen to this series on headphones and there is a "remix" version (whaaa...?) of Jam called Jaaaam that looks good, too.
Found this compilation of the "Doctor" scenes. Not everyone's cup of tea but that's why I like it. byyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeee

I'm a jazz cat, started out with hip hop in the early 80's, as I grew and understood the source content more, I got into jazz, funk, soul, disco etc etc. I have stoopid jazz collection at this point, still find new samples every day.
Coltrane's Naima is the song I want to escort me to the next level when the time comes.
Other than the ones we all know and love (Coltrane, Miles, Monk, Grant etc) Paul Desmond's discography has kept me busy recently, love Bobby Hutcherson and Bobby Humphreys. So much jazz so little time

Hi glabazoie
Not a song I know very well but there is a classic version by Julie London with Barney Kessel on guitar (album "Julie Is Her Name").
There is an instrumental version I like a lot because of Grant Green playing a beautiful guitar solo (on the album "All The Gin IS Gone" by Jimmy Forrest).
You can listen to both on Youtube.
I have a few Jazz Standards which I like (and play as a dabbling Jazz guitar player) but they are the usual array: Stella by Starlight, You Go to My Head, Foggy Day In London, How High The Moon and so on but it really depends on the artist.
Also there is a major distinction between instrumental versions and sung versions. I don't think the instrumental versions are as accessible to the casual listener.
Cheers

A completely new legislature, validating a parliament.
All validity of Parliament is essentially given by the royals. Hence the ability to prorogue when asked etc.
You are probably looking at a lengthy constitution that encapsulates the Bill of Rights, and other legislation that currently underpins the British citizens rights and collectively forms a constitution.
I expect if it comes it would be an unwinding process over a decade.
The issue is, who do you trust to write the constitution for a constitutional Republic?

Happy to be back in the land of happiness biggies. Savage here in Phnom Penh as you might imagine but $200 for a nice apartment and $2 a gram for the weed, I should start shipping it...
Last year I bought half an oz for $10 from one of those happy pizza places.
It was actually a really nice smoke. Wasnt a knock out Alaskan Thunderfuck kind of smoke but still very nice.
It looked like regular bud , don’t know if it was a landrace, it wasn’t leafy at all.
Enjoy my friend!

Remember staying on the khaosan road and missing our flight home and staying till our visa ran out in the 90s. Boss place
When I lived there from 2000-2003 it was hard to buy anything decent, just shit ditch weed from the motodops. You could get the same from the Russian market. Cannabis was considered something for old people to take, they would sprinkle it in their tea, things must have changed. The drugs of choice were heroin and yaba.
Now its meth everywhere, but thankfully you can get White Widow, Amnesia Haze etc for $8 a gram

Test borg
What happened to test borg and extracter, havent seen any results in a good while.
It would be a real good idea to have regular testing especially the way carts have blown off on here and people are now selling 50/50s, altnoids etc. I think it would separate LB from other places and is a real gap.
I would love to do it myself if the spectrometer setup wasn’t so big and expensive, unfortunately I don’t have the space or privacy for such things.

Hi Borg, unfortunately it doesn’t look like you can test for terpene profiles and cannabinoid composition or %THC am I missing something or is this the same as similar free services available online e.g. wedinos?
Is there any plans for more detailed analysis like extracter was starting?

Albert Einstein's message to the people of 6939
Our time is rich in inventive minds, the inventions of which could facilitate our lives considerably. We are crossing the seas by power and utilize power also in order to relieve humanity from all tiring muscular work. We have learned to fly and we are able to send messages and news without any difficulty over the entire world through electric waves.
However, the production and distribution of commodities is entirely unorganized so that everybody must live in fear of being eliminated from the economic cycle, in this way suffering for the want of everything. Furthermore, people living in different countries kill each other at irregular time intervals, so that also for this reason any one who thinks about the future must live in fear and terror. This is due to the fact that the intelligence & character of the masses are incomparably lower than the intelligence and character of the few who produce some thing valuable for the community.
I trust that posterity will read these statements with a feeling of proud and justified superiority.

Autonomous Military Robots
only hope at this stage is reprogramming them

does anyone actually like the apple watch?
wakes me up at 3 am to tell me it needs charging.
gives me "credit" for standing when i'm sleeping and lying down burns more calories than walking.
but what i really resent it has the nerve to constantly tell me what to do when it's this dumb.
