    Bad Idea?

    I've read and have been told a few scary stories involving datura... most stories end up with the protagonist in a jail cell naked and confused. You seem pretty smart, i'd wait till you meet someone IRL who knows their shit and can take you under their wing. Your quote seems kinda tame compared to the ones i've read What i've been told to remember, "Whatever you're seeing, it's not there"

    changing times

    So far the only people i've read about happy that it didn't pass were the people selling and making a profit. It would be good if you could ellaborate on why it was bad.

    Scientific American

    Mass extinctions have been tied in with temperature, the hotter it is the less diverse the species on earth is. Global cooling would be very welcome, but these things don't happen suddenly. Thanks for the link reflections. <--- denier lol (truthseeker )

    Alcohol 'more harmful than heroin'

    Pity the study has no actual scientific backing besides experts opinions which are open to bias. We already vaguely knew their views from reading about what's been happening about Prof. Nutt but now we have a study done in a day outlining them all. Cheers for the pdf, I agree with most of what's said, but a meth addict is horribly damaging to those around them in my opinion.
  6. Twice in the last year i've been approached by police while doing nothing wrong. I supply my name and address but when they ask me what i'm doing or where i'm going I refuse to answer their questions in order to protect my innocence. They interpret this as me acting suspicious and say they then have the power to search me, while searching I tell them they do not have my permission to go through my things but they say that doesn't matter. How can I prevent this? Thanks.

    Drug addict paid to have vasectomy

    Just a random interjection... I always find it funny how people talking about criminals learning things in prisons... to me it's common sense to NOT listen to the people who got caught and instead listen to the people who've managed to avoid prison time :D However on subject, France requires you to have a licence if you want to own a 'dangerous' dog, the UK wants to follow down the same path. Most people I know are a LOT more dangerous than dogs but we're free to spread the dangers. That's all humour btw... don't read too much into it. This whole thing stinks of unethical treatment

    The just-world theory.

    Just like karma allows me to treat other people like shit and know that they did something to deserve it

    anyone go to bed straight

    Sleep inertia? Maybe you woke up during a deep cycle of sleep and the paralysis carried over for a bit. I never sleep sober so I dunno.

    smoking DMT in a dream

    I can't ever remember having drugs in a dream which I find strange though I certainly have dreampt I was inebriated, this morning for example. Two weeks ago I talked to someone who said he commonly took drugs in his dreams. Sounds like a cool dream though

    Issues with a bag of Wbs

    Cheers i'll give it a shot, I usually usually go to grain/fodder places and ask there. I'd much prefer to work with rye than wbs, it's so much cleaner. The amount of random twigs and such I find in my bags is ridiculous.

    Issues with a bag of Wbs

    You can buy rye in Aus? Everywhere i've been and asked if they sell rye they laugh at me :/. I work with someone who seasonally sorts and distributes seeds during the seasonal period for her family and she said rye was a weed

    Issues with a bag of Wbs

    I've never ever had a contam issue with WBS, are you starting your timer AFTER your PC has hit the required pressure, how are your jar lids? Although I guess if your next lot is ok then those two wouldn't be the problem... I also boil my wbs for about 10 mins before PCing as apparently it germinates the endospores that wouldn't normally get sterilized unless they've been opened up. What seed was in the previous mix compared to the new mix? Round here there are plenty of fodder places, i do my wbs as a custom mix, 3 part millet, 2 part milo, 2 part wheat and my best time for a fully germinated quart jar is 8 days.

    dog eat cactus!

    Glad the dog's ok... pach is so common it wouldn't have been suspicious at all to take it to the vet and say the dog ate a lot of backyard cactus
  18. Psychotics are pretty creative but they're deemed by the statistical psychologists as 'abnormal', they have a 'personality disorder' because they're not like the rest of us. We're taught to fit in at a very young age and the parts we're not directly taught we pick up by observational learning. Creative people are 'weird', they stand out and generally people are afraid of that. To me it's just about pattern recognition... creative people see many many many different patterns in the world whereas for the most part we're only taught to recognise only certain patterns and that the other patterns either aren't there at all or are completely meaningless. I see myself as a very logical human who is increasingly interested in why other people are so illogical, what makes them like that and how they perceive the world. That's why I take a lot of psychoactives... to see the world in a more creative light, to notice patterns i'd look past every day blindly. mmm

    Kava taking its toll in remote communities

    This is really really dumb. Next on A Current Affair, The new HIGH that's KILLING OUR KIDS! Find out more after the break! Kava... seriously... As far as i'm concerned if you mix some nurofen up with dirt and drink it from a coconut shell you'd get higher and it would taste better.

    Refusing to answer police questioning

    As you said earlier, cops are only humans, they're just like any other human whether it's a mechanic, a bus driver, a junkie, a lawyer or gardener. Some will rip you off and lie to you, some won't. The thing that changes is the implied level of power someone has over someone else. 1/10 of mechanics will rip you off and you'll pay twice what you should, just as 1/10 of the police force will deliberately lie in order to do their job 'more efficiently'. We're all just employees under the thumb of our employer and we'll all lie and cheat if we think we can get away with it as long as it's for a 'just cause'. Guys... just remember why the thread was created though... I just don't want to have to answer police questions the same as I don't want to hear the life story of the bakery owner when I want to buy a loaf of bread, i'm non-social and I shouldn't be persecuted for that.

    Refusing to answer police questioning

    I answer police questions I think deserve an answer I just never ever tell an officer where i've been, where i'm going or what i'm doing. Except one time once when an officer pulled me over about 500m before I got to work. So far I haven't done anything wrong but it wastes both my time and the police's time when they do a warrant search and whatnot and not let me leave whilst they conduct 'an investigation'. Lying to a police officer when you've done something bad is a big no no, why lie when you can simply not say a thing? Why should you help them prosecute you by giving them any information? I'm thinking of printing off the page of our law that stated we didn't have to answer any questions that may lead to our prosecution in order to protect our innocence, so I can politely tell the next cop why I won't answer his questions. btw I'm never aggressive to police or too much of a smart arse, i'm usually quite docile and relaxed.

    Refusing to answer police questioning

    I trust a random police officer less than I trust a taxi driver and I don't let any cabbie know where I live. You should never tell a police officer where you've been or where you're going and you should especially never lie to an officer about it. What if the officer is pulling over your car because it's similar to one used for a robbery, and you just lied about your alibi? :/ This thread is the result of two altercations i've had with police officers, both of which there were no charges placed of course because i was doing nothing wrong, it's just the moment you treat a police officer like the dressed up stranger they are and refuse to follow their power game they start getting offended. I've had my car defected twice in the past fortnight by a cop who hated the fact that I wouldn't answer his questions so he took it out on my car, blah I just think it's bullshit that I can be deemed suspicious by doing something that every single resident should when confronted by the police, it wastes both my time and theirs. I just wish there was a peice of paper I could give to any officer that tried talking to me that would let them know in a nice manner that I don't talk to strangers.
