I can't even FIND that quality of acid around here anymore. I've gotten too old, and 28 years ago my Levis Dockers for work killed any real hopes of finding good 'cid at conferences at the open air street markets like in Portland.. .

I think even my older son thinks I'm a cop when I ask him..

Feature this:

Attending a National Sex Offender Therapist conference in Portland, along with a who's-who therapist in the field from Alaska.

We're walking the Portland open-air market down in the red cobble stone area of downtown; the risque area where nearly all the foyers smell of urine, because by day they're quaint shops, and by night they shield the homeless who need space to urinate, defecate, sleep, eat, etc. out of the elements.

We walk into a few shops that seriously look like cool persons are tending them. Youngsters with dreds, tie-dye t's for sale, etc., etc. We try to score a few doobies for the remainder of the trip.

I've been dealing since I was 13, and growing intermitently for decades, crossing state lines since 15 with cargo, and borders at age 18.

And in every both we walk into, we're treated liike cops! The humility of it!!
Know how ya feel. Last time I went to Hash Bash people looked at my buddy and I like we were cops walking through the crowd. Until we lit up. Went to go meet DJ Short. That was the highlight.

Last time I was in Ann Arbor for the Hash Bash was 1995, on a whirlwind tour. We had our first child, our daughter, a young toddler then, in a stroller.

Landed in Chicago, rented a car, headed up through the Parks and Forests in Northern Wisconsin looking at very nice dirt-cheap remote and rural real estate, and visited an old friend from the Yukon Territory near Eau Claire, in a small cross-roads farm town.

Then back to the farm in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan, that had taken me in when I'd been on the road at age 16, and on the way there, my father's grave site to the NW of there, then down to Ann Arbor for the Hash Bash, and to visit a professor from grad school, then the Hash Bash (a bit more up-tight than many of the years earlier, closer to the time of its inception).

Then down to Indiana to bury my brother's ashes next to my mother's in Northern Indiana, in a town my early ancestors settled and farmed near in the early mid-1700s.

Then East to Edinboro, Pa. to visit childhood hippie buddies from the early 1970s, and East to NY State to see a former partner and neighbor from Alaska, then back to Chicago to turn in the car.

My wife was driving west out of Pennsylvania, into Ohio, on the freeway, our daughter in the back seat, and I bent down to take a toke, headed back toward Chicago. A friend in Pa. had given me a stash of some really nice Afghani.

About that time an unmarked Ohio State Patrol sedan pulled up on our 8:00 and sat there, eye-balling me/us pretty hard. Don't know what he'd seen, or what his vantage point had been, but apparently he'd seen something, or thought he had. Maybe he'd been out of sight at the wrong time, up on an over-pass? Who knows?

He tagged us for a while.

That was my last tour to the Hash Bash. Got the T-shirt that year. Might still be here, though if it is, it's tattered all to hell.

I'm wiling to give up a Sunday sleeping away for a Saturday night of acid. Think we are close to the same age. It's just not in my circle anymore. I have a nephew starting at Michigan State. Maybe I'll hit him up. lol
The youngsters and techies these days, they've got access to the Dark Web if they're daring and/or knowledgeable/savvy. That's still all Latin to me, though, but the thought of an on-line super market for what ever I'm wanting at any given moment, with fast freight, or not? I have to say that as a western quasi-capitalist and fallible humanoid, that sounds pretty darned cool. Like, Maybe too cool. Dangerously cool? But what the hell, eh?

We didn't have that as kids!! We had to know people, make phone calls, clandestine codes, goofy shit.

Maybe before I die. One final moment of socially conscious anarchy in motion. :)

"Hello? Dark Web? I'd like a half-pound of freshly dried peyote, an oz. of uncut Peruvian flake, some good old fashioned Colombian Gold and Panama red, and, some silky-smooth tequila from a tiny micro-distillery, if it's not too much."

Not to mention all the other toys allegedly available at such a place.

Yes, I think the Dark Web could present major risks come Chirstmas shopping time.

That's the kind of stories that make ICMAG great.

It was. it was old friends, places of significance and nostalgia, and burying my estranged younger borther. And showing off our little girl.

I would've been late mid-30s then.
many of my "old places" have been changed beyond recognition. "old friends" are getting scarce. several i tried to look up in the past few years were beyond reach on this plane of existence.... youngest son's birthday soon. HE's damn near thirty now...great, NOW i feel old too....:badday::tiphat:

Another Hempy MO. Give a vague 'who me'? or 'I'm confused' or 'what are you asking?' or 'what makes you think I did not consider that?' - types of responses to the original issue, then later on says 'I believe I have already addressed that' - a complete and utter phony.
Nonsense. I simply ask for a little clarification or elaboration. And what do I get?? :gaga::gaga::gaga::gaga:

The FBI is America’s KGB. We should treat it as such. For too long, the FBI has engaged in subversive and anti-democratic activities. The ongoing connection of FBI informants to terrorist attacks is especially disturbing. A heavy dose of sunlight is essential.

For instance, two of the 9/11 hijackers lived with an FBI informant in San Diego prior to the World Trade Center attacks.

An undercover FBI agent texted a would-be mass shooter to “tear up Texas” prior to the attempted 2014 terror attack on a “Draw Muhammad” cartoon contest in Garland, Texas. That same FBI agent was in the parking lot of the location where the two gunmen launched their attack.

Boston magazine reporter Michelle McPhee reported in 2017 that one of the Boston Marathon bombers, Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, was very likely an FBI informant. Despite the FBI receiving warnings from the Russian government that Tsarnaev was a threat, he somehow managed to enter and exit the United States from a known terror hot spot without a passport . . . all while his name was on two terrorist watchlists.

In 2017, the FBI maintained a network of some 15,000 to 20,000 turncoat informants: an utterly mind boggling number. Between 2011 and 2018, the federal government paid $548 million to federal informants for the DEA, ATF, and FBI. Those informants collectively were involved in 22,800 crimes while receiving taxpayer funds.

One of those informants was Joshua Caleb Sutter, a member of the alleged “neo-Nazi” group Atomwaffen. Sutter ran a printing press called Martinet that published Satanist and Nazi material. The FBI, it turns out, paid Sutter around $100,000 over nearly a decade.

Robert Mueller, the former FBI director who headed the Russian hoax investigation into Trump, is especially dirty. He had exculpatory evidence for four innocent men who had been wrongfully convicted of murders committed by FBI agents. He stonewalled the evidence as director in order to protect the corrupt Boston office of the FBI, where at least a half-dozen agents were taking bribes from organized crime.

The FBI, along with its investigative brethren, is actively enmeshed in the dealings of the underworld. In 2016, the FBI seized the world’s largest child porn site on the “darkweb” called Playpen and then kept it running for two weeks while it infected the computers of visitors to the website with malware designed to track their activity.

Put simply, the FBI distributed child porn in the name of the supposed “greater good.”

The line between the scum of the earth and the FBI has blurred to the point of disappearing entirely. The lead FBI agent in Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s kidnapping case, Richard Trask, was a “swinger” (involved in polyamorous sexual activity) who also beat his wife. Trask testified repeatedly in the FBI’s case against alleged militia members but had to be pulled from the case when it was discovered that he had been railing against Trump on social media.

German Domestic Intelligence Is Running 100s Of Fake Right-Wing Extremist Social Media Accounts; Report

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitic...t-social-media

Hundreds of the radical Nazis and right-wing extremists online are actually German domestic intelligence agents, and many of them may even responsible for “inciting hatred” and even violence. These agents, who once needed to drink and directly socialize with members of the extreme right, are now running right-wing extremist accounts online in Germany.

However, the activities of the BfV running hundreds of right-wing extremist accounts have come to light at the same time that Germany’s left-wing government has labeled right-wing extremism the biggest threat to the country, despite data showing that left-wing extremists and radical Islam pose bigger threats. The country’s interior minister, Nancy Faeser, has launched a 10-point plan to fight “right-wing extremism,” and much like the Biden administration in the United States, has turned the domestic security state against political opponents and labeled them terrorism threats and a danger to democracy. In Germany’s case, the opposition conservative Alternative for Germany party (AfD) is actively surveilled in certain federal states, with membership in the party the only prerequisite for agents being able to read emails and listen in on telephone calls of private citizens.
