This started today in texas. This is the first state to make paying for sex a felony. Probably covers sex found on the street, websites and massage parlors. What are your thoughts on this?

 
A woman should be able to sell her body legally if she wants to IMO.  People are going to do it either way and it just fills up our jails and gives people a record for something that should be legal. 

 
I do agree. Texas does have a lot of sex trafficking. But there are also a lot of freelance workers. I do think it will cause a lot of financial problems for the workers. And also give a lot of regular people bad criminal records. It's like a 50/50 on this one. 

 
@Drunkensmurf Just think about a sex worker that decides to try and get out of the life. How is she going to get a good paying job with a bunch of sex charges on her record. How embarrassing that has to be to try and explain that away in an interview. And I also find it stupid that prostitution is illegal, but porn is just fine and really the only difference is one is recorded. The porn stars are getting paid for sex too. LOL

 
Here in Nevada we support the vices. Seems better to have legal brothels that are paying taxes and have some protections for workers and customers.

It doesn't completely irradicate the illegal prostitution, but I think it helps. This seems like a better way for the government to make money off of the world's oldest profession. Sending it further underground makes it more dangerous for all involved. 

 
@2earls you are right about legalizing it. More tax money and it could reduce some dangerous situations. hopefully texas will find out soon they are going in the wrong direction. I personally dont pick up workers or use the websites like backpage. But I have visited some massage parlors a few times. I would hate for that to disappear.

 
I agree with the consensus. The more underground the more dangerous. Also not to bring up a hot button but Texas has also authorized a one 800 number so you can report people that might be considering an abortion. No matter your thoughts on the subject just ponder that for a minute and think of the many places it could lead. I think Texas is trying to lead the way on conservative ism however true conservatives believe in less government not less freedom.

 
@Deepnorth I agree with your statement as I don't think you can preach "freedom", but only when it applies to what suits your personal beliefs. The very idea of an 800 number to rat on women who may be considering abortion kind of makes my blood boil. If people didn't feel the need to shove their beliefs down everyone else's throat maybe we could all get along whether we disagree or not.

 
I did read that about abortions. It's crazy that a state would make that illegal, but they also just approved that anyone that owns a handgun can have open carry. I had to take a long course and prove I was able to use the gun safely before I was able to have a concealed license. Who is really making these changes?

Roger that.

  2. Finger-of-God @ Finger-of-God: u5ps handles our shipments just fine. 200+ daily, just have to split them up to different locations.
  3. The Doctor RC @ The Doctor RC: Well you know UxPx can't handle the amount of priority mail and FDX is having trouble with business so now they help UxPx handle like a certain percentage of priority mail as far as transportation from location to location
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: UessPess tracking is agonizingly stupid 😬 😥
  5. O @ ochemdim: Agreed, apologies all. But at the same time I’ve seen articles about spray bottles that are very expensive. Paying more for less when it comes down to it. I think we should help each other out , but this may not be the spot to discuss this topic, you’re right about that
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: @ochemdim good stuff as always bro
  7. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: See round like a donut
  8. N @ necromedic: @ochemdim : definitely will. I feel like we should have started a thread about this. Apologies, @Admin if this was improper use of the box. Please purge, if necessary.
  9. O @ ochemdim: @necromedic ah ok interesting! Let me know what the researchers find out. The hypothesis makes sense, only thing I’d be wary of is the irritability of VG, and keep in mind, when VG and HCł are mixed, chlorôhýdrín is produced which is very irritating but that’d have to be pretty strong HÇł I believe and just washing before hand will rid the excess HÇł
  10. N @ necromedic: @ochemdim : anecdotally, especially with the way other people have prepared them with just distilled H2O and maybe EtOH or BA for sterility, I would definitely agree, and I’ve wondered if that it’s due to the speed of drainage with such a low weight solvent. That’s why I’ve experimented with adding VG to increase viscosity to let it hang in the NM a little longer. Possibly more diffusion/osmotic pressure with a dry vs hydrated medium?
  11. O @ ochemdim: @Royboy88, @Layne_Cobain, @necromedic in a couple research papers I’ve read, they always found that the sprays had lower absorption rates compared to traditional. I could be wrong but I’d research it if I were doing a study and needed references
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: @Royboy99 never got to try one of those saline sprays but a snuff bullet is a great compromise love mine Amazon has good ones for cheap
  13. N @ necromedic: @Royboy99: I’ve just held on to one, rinse it with EtOH and refill with saline and VG. You can find the devices, dirt cheap, on a lot of sites.
  14. ms3031 @ ms3031: Anyone ever tried MDBD?
  15. R @ Royboy99: Since C and R are gone sadly are there any vendors that offer ❄️ (c) misters , those were so convenient
  16. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Yeah, be smart, do your research.
  17. M @ meepmoopmeep: is it the high prices from dropshippers? i tend to avoid the obvious dropshippers for that reason
  18. M @ meepmoopmeep: @PlainPasta sorry, but I’m not understanding the issue at hand
  19. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Depends what you're looking for.
  20. P @ PlainPasta: If this is website of sellers who order off the dark web for a premium. We expect a premium back too
