humbleguy··on Psychedelics: A Personal Take (2021)
I drop a stamp into 10ml of vodka and take 1ml every 3rd day. I don't have an objective way of measuring an effectiveness of it, of course. However, I do feel that when I need to focus I can focus much easier. I don't feel jitters and the next day I also feel elevated mood and overall just more positive.

I have been microdosing LSD for about 4 months now regularly with great success and it's now my go-to for focus and mood improvement.

I contacted for 10 years and managed to save up about 200k. Started at pre IPO company and walked away with 2.5m after taxes in 7 years. Big difference.

I had six unifi protect cameras for over a year until I replaced them all. Rain at night means motion notifications every 30 seconds, bugs at night, same thing. Unifi cameras are terrible for outdoor applications.

humbleguy··on Why aren't fentanyl test strips more widespread? (2021)
Very much possible. Non street level dealers tend to prefer repeat customers vs large volume of random people. Because of that they tend to monitor quality of their own products. I've met dealers who go as far as actually wash the product. Funny enough, the only time I bought from a random guy, I got baking soda instead.

Taking drugs doesn't make you stupid. However, ignorance is a powerful contributor.

Test strips are not just for addicts. Casual users use them as well. Believe it or not some dealers also use them.

That could be because you probably assume that any drug use leads to addiction and despair. More often than not, despair leads to drug use as means for temporary escape and relief.

This is a very misguided view. Majority of drug users are all around you, regular people who have families and hold jobs - your friends, your relatives, your coworkers. Just like majority of people who drink alcohol aren't alcoholics, majority of drug users aren't addicts.
