[QUOTE=WoodenSpoon;47071040]You got the wide mouth jars correct? As far as equipment goes, I must vouch in favor of using a SAB (still air box) when inoculating your jars as that would massively reduce the risk of contamination from your syringe. I steam sterilized the dozen jars of my ongoing batch (also using pf tek) and they sat contam-free for two weeks however two of them were lost to foreign molds that only showed up post inoculation after I didn't use a SAB. Also a torch lighter would be faster at flame-sterilizing your needle between jars, but a normal lighter would suffice. Just be very careful when using alcohol obv[/QUOTE] -snip-

anyone think it'd be a cool idea for a dur.gs teamspeak server for gaming and just chatting? I have an extra vps idk how good it would be but i could host teamspeak or vent or mumble or something on it.

So I did some DMT today. The first time I did it, I did a 20mg hit and ended up being really creeped out by my ceiling fan and the buzz. I didn't close my eyes longer than for a few seconds. The second time and third time I had 40mg and 60mg respectively, and I closed my eyes. The third time: The entire time, I knew it was just my eyes being closed and I could open them the entire time, but I basically felt as if I was seeing (and not experiencing) the inside of a large room made of some colorful design. In the center was a small box that came closer into view, and it looked like a temple or building with torches. It was yellow and had some green highlights in it. It unfolded and enveloped the room and the room changed to a very metallic shiny gray chrome color. It's hard to remember everything but there was some sort of entity that gave me the impression that the entire universe was created as some sort of social joke, and the existence of these phenomenons are as a result of the creators fucking with the inhabitants of the realm. All communication was done nonverbally and gave me a feeling that the room was part of a different dimension entirely. Again, I was able to open my eyes at any time and I did still feel the pillow under my head when I thought about it. It didn't feel like a long time, maybe a few minutes max. Did I break through or was I on the verge? I definitely saw some stuff but don't know if what I had was considered a breakthrough. The third time, I took about 4 hits as well as I could using 'The Machine.' I don't consider this spiritual but can't explain why exactly that happened. It's strange.
Attempting to make a sick curry for my family when they come home. Drunk as hell but at least i'm good at hiding it. When don't have any cumin seeds which is gay as hell, 'cause i wanna toast them and maybe some fennel seeds and chuck it in. We used all the fucking fennel seeds on our pork and haven't bought more so i'm stuck with the old favourites. I also accidentally dumped in a shitload of cayenne pepper and now that shit's fucking fire and it's great, but i've got a lot higher of a spice tolerance than my fam so they may yell at me.

Yeah I haven't had that yet. It's hard taking in a huge fuckton of smoke in a short time. Do you know how long I can keep smoking until it doesn't affect me? I heard it's like 1 minute but I've only smoked up to 25 seconds long until I start to feel it come on, then I stop. Should I keep hammering away at it even when it starts its effects?
I'm not quite sure honestly, i've never done DMT. Cody has though so ask him.

By what you describe i guess you take two hits and start feeling the effects thus not getting the third hit, which you should do, you need to vapourize all the material in order to break through.

Most people cannot operate their machine or pipe after the 3rd or 4th hit. The chrome covering of everything in your field of view is a unique effect that ive read about a lot of people encountering on dmt.
I still can't really write it off as spiritual because it's a manifestation of one's mind. Because someone does it and sees these things doesn't mean it's spiritual because the visions originate from one's self, and any ideas one comes up with are from deeper in one's mind, which makes sense why someone would think it's spiritual because the best person they can relate to is themselves, and because of that, they can adopt the idea really easily. Maybe I'm just talking out of my ass but the idea that entity was giving me is an accurate representation of my own sense of humor instead of some life changing idea. It makes sense because the idea originated from my mind, so in some way, it does reflect myself. I feel like most people instantly assume it's some spiritual thing because they can relate to it and some entity they thought up while doing drugs, and I don't really understand why...

Drugs are drugs, they make you feel differently, there aren't magical chemicals that bring you to the spirit realm. DMT is a great introspective drug that I really hope I get the chance to try some time, but I hatehatehatehaaaaate when people say it "connected them to the universe" or something.

That's all it is. I know so so so many people who genuinely think they talked to god and saw angels and now they know that their place in the universe is to harness energy orbs with magic crystals and bullshit. It's just a feeling. It's an emotion. I've felt that before, but it's no different than feeling angry or feeling happy - it goes away.

I see myself appreciating a lot more of the little things in life now, and I tend to be considerably more appreciative of being able to do everything that I can call a "normal" day of life. When I had ego death I was pretty bewildered at how I could have let myself take so many aspects of life for granted when you become used to them.
Drug testing offices are the worst. Getting drug tested :| [editline]4th February 2015[/editline] I don't smoke and haven't touched anything besides DMT so I should be clean [editline]4th February 2015[/editline] But it still sucks

You're still you and nothing has changed except you and your perspective. I guess what I'm saying is nothing in reality changed, just your angle on it, but in your case that angle stuck a bit more, doesn't disprove what isak said.

And I honestly don't believe I'd have the perspective I do without that experience. That's my point. It's why I think anyone should try shrooms atleast once (aslong as it's viable for you)

If we can't all agree that reality exists and is a common ground we can all share, then there's no reason for discussion as everyone would be living in their own and I guess that doesn't really make any sense to myself. Either way I'm not bashing the drugs in any way or persuading anyone away from them, I'm just explaining that whatever you feel or experience on them is nothing but subjective to your own mind.

Gotcha!
I just took a benzo nap, passing out tortured by anxiety and waking up calm and refreshed is dope
Its one of those nights where you gotta crack out the bryant and may's
I had 3 cups of coffee and really spicy food today. I feel horribly fucked up from it and just want to go to sleep.
So, good news from me. I've finally finished my mandatory IDF service woo woo now I can be as much of a stoner as I want without worrying about random drug tests and extended jail time~ also, stims+photoshop+friends bugging me to change my profile picture to Jim Parsons for doppelganger week because apparently I remind everyone of fucking Sheldon = bored self portrait practice/this: [img]http://i.imgur.com/TD3QcuG.jpg[/img] I am so sorry.
