how so?

It's a gateway to yr skull.

it was the last drug i tried, actually (of all the drugs i've tried.) it just never appealed to me, and i didn't like the way it made me feel. of course, didn't stop me from smoking daily for a period anyways (more a social thing than anything; i gained weight and quit.)

ay que rico

I don´t think cannabis is a gateway drug. I have never used it myself, but I have quite many friends who have used it 10-20 years and never started to use any harder drugs. I believe specially these days there are lots of people who start use amphetamine, LSD or ecstacy without ever using cannabis.

A gateway to evolution. By definition, evolution only takes place when an mutation is selected.

Smoking cannabis can alter a person's DNA, causing mutations that expose a user to serious illnesses, experts have warned

sure. nevermind the additives in yr food and the water you drink. maybe those people live and think negative lives.

yes and no

alcohol is the true "gateway" drug.

Probably refined sugar is the real gateway substance.

man, i just found about Bill Hicks today. he is/was great. and i do feel like light up one.

bill hicks is the shit. that dude knew the truth

ok so i took doses since posting this... was definitely strong not too overwhelming. likely to do it again if i can manage to clear 12-18 hours plus sleep on my calendar

you talking weed? breeds from your part of the world must be modified into max. perfection. yeah, I would think twice as well. what about some light, energetic strains (haha...yeah right...are there any like that?).

Doubt it. I'm pretty sure he's talking about 'cid. I haven't done it since I dropped with my girlfriend. She can't handle that stuff...

There aren't. I mean... Everyone seems to be under the impression that different strains are like different substances. From my experience, the writin-group variance is roughly equivalent to the difference between coffee roasts and brews. There may be some different flavors and overtones from strain to strain, but if it's THC and you're smoking it, the same basic thing is going to happen in your brain every time.

Even now, in my (mumble)-thirties, I have friends who insist that "it all depends on the strain." Seems infantile and naive to me. Like buying into a marketing tactic. People seem to be convinced that some kinds of weed feel like cocaine, and make you ultra focused and energetic, while others reproduce the kind of pure euphoria that opiates and benzodiazepines bring on. It just doesn't work like that. The big difference in determining how you're going to react to THC lies mostly in how much THC you ingest. If you do it every day, you're going to react much differently than someone who smokes ounces a year, or les than that.

I guess I could be wrong... maybe there's a world of difference between strains, and I'm just a dipshit. But I don't think so. To hear people talking about it, you'd think THC is the most versatile psychotropic known to man, and that's certainly not the case.

However, I did just learn about these exciting "new" electronic cigarette-like doohickeys that run on a battery and burn hash oil. I don't tend to respond well to THC... haven't since I stopped smoking it every day... But these little doohickeys seem pretty down.

Yeah, seemed like he was talking about acid to me.

I have not dropped in a very very long time. Probably never will again. I've heard interesting things about microdosing, but when you've had the kinds of acid experiences I have, you don't just take a little and go to work and expect that everything will be fine. Cause I've seen the backs of my eyeballs from space, and there's no way I'm fucking around with any amount of that shit unless I have complete control over my environment.

Severian.. there are ELEVEN psychoactive chemicals that occur only in cannabis, and about 80 chemicals that only occur in cannabis. the ratio and differing levels of these cannabinoids determines the psychoactive effect. the differing strains and also differing curing methods cause different "highs".. its not merely "marketing" is neurochemistry.

THC is the most psychoactive but the other ten chemicals play their roles. the "energetic" strains have less of the "sleepy" chemicals. some of these more so impact pain receptors, CBD oils and tinctures used as legit medicine aim for extracts of these different cannabinoids for different uses

suchfrendsaredangerous knows his stuff severian. i mean i remember some strains would completly fuck you up and some would be so lighter an energetic like that you could actually be active while intoxicated ( i must admit, not that many of that sort i came across, ehrm). yeah and then, some are extra ultra fucking 18 hrs. out of order. where are you from again suchfriends? la? have you talked about acid or weed? anyway. those days you can get strains so modified they are not natural like anymore. you have to have a day off and no plans...true

acid? o.k. that is for another thread. those days are over for me same like for severian. it does open yr mind and make you more spiritual alright. it is good tho.

by the way ganja should be mandatory for everyone at least for once in his/her lifetime! could be gateway alright. but still...
