# herbal highs are shit

# Yes.
BZP (EDIT: and TFMPP) was a pretty good substitute, before they got taken away from us as well.

About the best thing on the market now is BK-MBDB but it's far too expensive and not hugely effective.

# they've taken bzp away already?
bloody hell that didn't last long. i had some of these space cadets a couple of years back when shrooms got taken away, and they were bloody awful. i just felt confused and sleepy.

i need to find a good substitute for mdma. the come downs are getting worse and worse but i hate being the only sober person on a night out. especially considering the cost of booze in clubs.

# it's very amphetamine-like, with a strong rush and lots of alertness
mild hallucination, and an overall sense of confidence, wellbeing, and sociableness. So yes. And though it can drag coming down, it's not a bump.
Can be a bit drained the next day.

This concludes my initial report, based on one night of two * 200mg, and one night of one * 200mg.

200mg should last you 8 - 10 hours...

To be honest fun, excitement, a fullfilling life, etc are just delusions people set up so they don't despair at the fact that life literally means shit all. Whether it's the pointless following of old words or sweating in a room full of strobe lights, it doesn't really mean shit all.

# Well
Life means shit all - compared to what?

# Existance is just transfers of energy, there's no inherent meaning to it.
People make whatever kind of meaning they see fit, but unfortunately to stop themselves despairing at the fact that there is no purpose or inherent meaning to life, they then believe whatever arbitrary thing they have thought up as truth. Then argue over it incessently.

(, Mon 5 May 2008, 1:34, archived)
# Things wrong with that:
How is it possible to despair at a lack of reasons to care about anything? If there's really nothing that matters, you wouldn't give a hoot. If you despair over it, then that's something you care about, and your life has a purpose (to seek purpose), so it's a paradox - or rather a bubble that immediately bursts: life does contain something which appears to be meaning (your "delusions"), so anybody concerned about lack of meaning has something immediately to latch onto, with no competition; anybody not concerned about lack of meaning has no reason to resist this. Which I think is a natural urge - all the moil, toil, hurly-burly, creation of knowledge and argument and general mucking about is just our brains doing what they naturally do; and there is no possible reason to resist - except in as far as that resistance would, itself, be just another aspect of our brains doing what they naturally do. It wouldn't, however, be a meaningful act to resist - even if we're going to call meaningful acts illusory, it still wouldn't count as one.
Unless you'd come up with a reason.

# If you despair about something and subsequently need to seek answers, you may class that as a purpose.
But that does still not mean that life and existence innately has a purpose or meaning.

People seem to be of the opinion that whatever perception of life they see or experience is a 'valid truth' of what life really is. If I go through life and get scared and excited, is that what life really is? Is it the combined experiences and perceptions of all intelligent beings? It's pretty much everything, the sheer multitude of possibilities of interaction and experience, the infinite of potential. If something is everything, how can it have any meaning? Anything is possible and nothing is or isn't preferred.

I don't really care about what people think, until as I said they start arguing, calling themselves right or waging conflict over it. Then it just gets to being fucking pathetic.

# Yes, sense of purpose* is arbitrary,
but I don't think this should stop us feeling one, or affect our behaviour, for the reasons given above. It does mean that we can't make an appeal to life's supposed innate, pre-determined purpose as a source of authority, though, fair point.

We can make an appeal to our human-created reasons for thinking that such-and-such is life's purpose, although I admit the term "life's purpose" sounds a bit wrong. Really it would mean "the only purpose which apparently makes sense, as far as you or I know, so far, although we could be wrong." Also this would be a trivial thing to appeal to, since it couldn't contain any details that weren't controversial.

*I mean that having a sense of purpose at all is arbitrary and not justified by anything. Having one particular purpose rather than another is arrived at by reason.

# What this seems to boil down to
is that you expect knowledge to be final and perfect, and on observing that there's a vast difference of opinion about what's true, you conclude that there isn't any knowledge. You don't seem to consider that there might be progress in verisimilitude.
(, Mon 5 May 2008, 2:46, archived)
# Well I would highlight things like Solipsism which claims that nothing other than yourself can be known to be true.
But the fact that someone can even hint that there are no external frames of reference or ways in which we can ever truly be certain shows that ultimately veracity will be an unjustified thing. There is still knowledge, knowledge is what we know as knowledge, but that doesn't necessarily make knowledge an inherent truth. It's more an expression or a possibility, just as you can't say that a certain spelling of a certain word in English is correct and others are wrong - a word might need to be spelt a certain way to belong to a set, of English or whatever other type of knowledge it is.
(, Mon 5 May 2008, 3:12, archived)
# There's (unknown) objective truth.
(Otherwise logic fails, because A and not A are equally true.)
This means that probably some of our knowledge is true (or some of our future knowledge might be, and we can't know which). This means there is progress in knowledge and purpose to argument.

The thing about correct spellings of words is just failure to define a problem tightly. Like you say, there is a correct spelling of a word in order to belong to a particular set. There isn't a correct spelling of a word, or a correct albatross, or a correct anything that can't undergo a specified (or implied) test for correctness.

# BZP isnt technically illegal
...but it is classifiable as a 'medicine' under UK law so you need a license to sell it apparently.

Although our local friendly Dr. herman's still sells the 'Head fuel' range which contain pperazines, for some reason.

They also have 'Doves' which are BK-MBDM which is close to MDMA. You'll probably recognise theffects, but they cost £10 PER PILL!


I'm going to try something called 'diablos' which are made by the same people as my favourite BZP type (Hummers / Magic)

and quite pleasant, lots of nice closed-eye visuals and a mood lift, BUT they contain cyanogenic glycosides which make tiny amounts of cyanide on contact with water. Not enough to be toxic, but they will almost certainly make you vom.

Then again i did have the recommended dosage TWICE in one evening, which may not have helped.
