last time I had mushrooms, it took me an hour to do what was usually a 5 minute walk home.

never again, don’t let drugs ruin your life

#107

no idea how it’s done myself but it is funny that so many people still use street dealers when they could get them posted instead

#108

Hmmm, I’m not convinced about putting my address into the details, nor connect my bank account to a bit chain thing, even if they are meant to be completely secure untraceable methods.

Edit: plus I’m too old to learn new things.

Remember when I was about 15 getting a dipped joint (no idea what it was dipped in) and smoking down by the river with my mate and then walking back to my house.

Started tripping balls like nothing I’ve had before on the way back and my friend thought the trees were chasing him. Made it back to my house and my pal just ran straight upstairs to my room.

At that moment my mum came out of the living room and was all “oh,great, you’re back, come and meet our new neighbours!” And in the living room were my super religious new neighbours who proceeded to quiz me about every aspect of me while I felt totally out of my tree.
Babysat for them quite a lot after that (when not on drugs), so good first impressions count, kids

I did once try to work out the dark web or whatever it’s called but didn’t get very far.

I also wonder how they get through royal mail. One of my mates from when I lived down south relocated to a remote Scottish place and used to get his mate in London to post drugs up to him in an envelope full of coffee. I presume this is A Thing, but won’t the narcs just be onto envelopes that smell of arabica?
Give me a wee birl round the block in dodgy pedro’s beemer any day, where you do “the exchange “ in the glove box.

Ayahuasca and Psilocybin can’t really be compared imo. FWIW I have a friend who regularly attends ayahuasca ceremonies, sounds very intense but life-changing by all accounts.

Psilocibin will make your floors turn into waterfalls and either give you intense nausea and anxiety or make you giggle like a loon, but (for me at least) it lacks that self-reflective element. I’m on a 2:1 ratio of good to bad experiences with it, but I’m not sure I’d do it again.

same way drugs get anywhere, unless it’s really obvious or someone gets lucky/unlucky they just won’t get noticed

consider these two facts

  • there are huge problems with drugs getting in to prisons
  • there are huge batches of drugs getting in to the country every day

realistically if those two can’t be stopped, why would we expect an envelope containing a handful or less being popped in the general mail to be noticed?

many years ago i was wondering if people could get away with posting drugs back from Amsterdam. i didn’t do it myself (that’s a story for another time) but a lot of people online said that if you posted back a small amount then on the incredibly rare time that it wouldn’t get through, a letter would just be sent saying “so we have your package, come and pick it up” which was easy to ignore as obviously you hadn’t addressed it to the name of a real person.

when she was at uni i asked my younger sister about people at her uni doing drugs and she said people got them online. when i was at uni no one at all was doing it but i can definitely imagine that for people under a certain age it’s done fairly often and is seen as normal

Just seen this
Thank you for the kind offer but I think I’m ok

In London they’ve started using Prius’s more these days.

Which was a problem for a friend of mine last year who went to pick up and got in an Uber by mistake.

I’ve heard they get delivered in heat sealed thick plastic envelopes, sometimes two of them inside a jiffy bag or two.

Do young people do acid anymore? Only done it a few times, pretty amazing each time considering it was a few quid a pop.

#119

I had an envelope of weed intercepted by customs once. Quite annoying. No real follow up though.

A friend of mine who is a bit older than me said he used to be able to get a bottle of Buckfast and a tab of acid for IR£10 in the late nineties. Cheap night out!

#121

Acid was our drug of choice around the age of 17 or 18 and a big part of that was the simple economics of being off your nut for six hours for a fiver! We still talk about the night one of my mates found one on the floor of the local indie disco.

Haven’t had it for years and would be very reluctant to take it again now. A case where the one bad experience would outweigh all the good ones in my mind.

Same. Great fun when you’re free and easy. I’d just start stressing about my sons education, or the dodgy wiring in our house that we need to get fixed.

The last time I took it must have been 1998 and I actually spilt a blotter with my housemate which cost us £4 from a guy on Hastings pier. Have only done it a handful of times but this was SO unbelievably strong - like a stereotypical cartoon acid trip. Walls curving round me, faces in posters moving and speaking, patterns on our wallpaper trickling down the walls. 7 hours passed in what felt like 15 minutes. Housemate lost the plot and thought his stomach lining had split. Amazing/terrifying.

Similarly - was told about someone the other day sorting a PO box in Barcelona and ordering all their stuff off the dark web to it, for sonar festival. what a world we live in.
