I only became a member of PR about a week before the recent mega event that caused so many to flock to DBG... Before then I used to chance it a lot with OP's & IOP's, but regularly checked both PR & DBG out as sources. However, I never felt comfortable enough joining either, as I felt I had nothing to contribute. Who knows, some of you may feel I still don't! :-)...

Anyway, my point is, I have interacted with some cracking folks on here, half of you, unbeknown to me we're members of PR...

After the recent re-appearance of PR, I have been over there and had a look around and made a few posts...

I have noticed a few of the members who flocked here (not the ones I have interacted with), while not bad-mouthing DBG, talking about DBG on PR slightly disrespectfully, just in the odd passing comment or two, like it was just a place to hang about, while the new house was being built so to speak :-(...

Now, don't get me wrong, I realise that for many of you PR is and has been your home for many years and I fully respect that...

However, we are all in the same boat and like I've said in previous posts, we are here primarily to share knowledge and help each other out in the 'very real' ups & downs of our every day lives...

I guess what I'm trying to say is, friends are friends, no matter how or where you meet them, in person, online, in space (ok, I made that one up! ) and it's that collective harmony if you will, that make these places what they are... It doesn't matter what username you have or where you come from. It's the interactions, reassurances, kindness, compassion, caring and trust and knowing you're not alone in the way you feel, whether it be ecstatic joy or absolute fucking misery, that connects us.

But most of all it's hope, the hope we can help each other and be helped by one another as we all struggle through our own personal battles...

This is by no means an attack on PR members, it's just something I have observed is all...

I consider DBG to be my true home, my first home if you will, I'm comfortable here. But I'm so glad to see that the PR members that flocked over here, are still here and hopefully aren't going anywhere, cause you folks are a big part of DBG being my home :-)

Much love to all here and PR :-)...I hope I haven't offended anyone...

I love your posts P and I'm very glad you're here and actively posting. In real life noone really understands my issues. It's nice to talk to people who don't just label you crazy or an addict and dismiss your problems out of hand. I like hearing from other people about how they've dealt with it and what meds work or help some. Gives me hope from those who are coping well after years with it or at least commiseration for the ones that are still struggling like me.

Great post.

 
Sometimes in a forum or anywhere on the internet where there is no tone of voice or facial expression, words can be taken out of context and often misinterpreted. I'm not saying thats the case in this situation but I'm just tossing that out there as I think its something that should be remembered by all when reading things. 

I am a long time PR member that came here when they went down but I also plan on staying here as well. Having been at PR for so long, yes, it does feel like home to me and to many of us. I'm still a newbie here so of course it doesnt feel the same as PR yet. I cant speak for all PR members but I do think that most of us that landed here were very appreciative of the warm welcome we received. Whether any of us decide to stay or not, at least it gave us the opportunity to see what its like here, something that may not have happened if PR had not gone down. As in any forum, some will like it and some wont. Its all good. This forum was running perfectly fine (or so it seems) before we got here and I'm sure it will continue to run fine even if all of us were to leave. 

The two forums are very different but as you said, the main purpose is to share information and help others.

I wasn't ever accusing anyone of not being grateful, as am I, I am grateful to both DBG & PR for taking me in :-)...

Like you say, without the benefit of facial expressions and body language, it is very easy to misinterpret things...

It was just a casual observation on my part and I meant no offence to anyone, I guess I was just being a bit too protective of my new home? I guess in a roundabout way, I was just trying to say that we're all part of the same family really, with exactly the same aim, to help each other out, if and whenever possible...

And like you say, if it wasn't for PR going down, lots of us would not have met, and I for one am honoured to have met all of you, and I'm glad you and many others are sticking around Mira, cause it wouldn't be the same without you :-)

I know for me I lurked around for awhile before I felt at home here. I am so glad I beame an active member. We are glad some of you decided to stick around. I have loved reading your post & comments & I looked at PR at one time but it wasn't the right fit for me. I'm sure a lot of the PR members felt the same way about DBG. Starting out new would be hard as you have to earn trust & that takes time. We are glad you are here

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
