"LOST" your weed. L = Like, O = Obfuscatedly S = Sell Me T = The Weed

This is great, reminds me of a memory trick for recalling string names on a guitar.

I live in NJ where weed is legal but you can't buy it (legally) so we are sort of in a weird spot. anyway, it makes me really not care about ordering weed on the dark web from CA. if the feds catch it, its an ounce of weed to a residence, they don't care and im not gonna go in front of some federal judge on federal drug crimes. if CA or NJ catch it, its legal there, who cares. but the site I use uses an escrow system…

There's such a thing as federally legal THC these days, and it can be shipped straight to your mailbox: https://moonwlkr.com/pages/moonwlkr-delta-8

I've tried this stuff. It's nasty, could not recommend less.

This makes a lot of sense. In the case of the Dark Web I had always wondered how people felt secure in their purchases, especially considering the wide degree of fentanyl contamination in the recreational drug movement right now.

The drug markets have escrow systems and releasing the funds usually requires a review. This means that most sellers have tons of reviews. If a seller ever gets below 95% satisfaction they're basically done, which forces quite a bit of honesty. Since most purchases are $100+ astroturfing seems pretty uncommon. Many sits also have reviews per item, and if the price changes the reviews start from scratch, further disincentivizing astroturfing.

There is a comic I remember from my childhood, "Tom the Dancing Bug" written by Ruben Bolling. He had a character called "Harvey Richard, Lawyer for Children". I linked a couple of examples [1], [2], [3], [4] but the satire, IMO, is incredible. It lampoons humanities proclivity to layer pseudo-rationality onto the irrational things that we do. It also reminds me of the TV show "The Wire" when Stringer Bell, a senior…

The lengths that pintrest is going to prevent me from viewing the image full size is frustrating. But these comics are great.

But if you hit the 3 dots it literally says "download image", and it's full size...

I don't know how to play guitar, but now that I know this mnemonic maybe I should learn!

After medical and recreational weed was legalized, the lost weed company is not really needed. Their prices were pretty high and have stayed that way.

Well, it sounds like there's still a need for their service in New Jersey...

"Meet the new boss: same as the old boss." - The Who https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDfAdHBtK_Q Actually, I suspect the new "bosses" of the dark web's newfangled justice system are in fact much worse than the old "bosses" of the traditional, old-fashioned, time-tested justice system -- i.e., judges and lawyers.

Worse for who?

The lengthy discussions about what qualifies as "anarchy" is a perfect illustration of why anarchists (and libertarians) never take power. The devotees are more interested in being correct and arguing with each other than in the messy business of making coalitions and keeping them together.

Good.

Everytime we get someone on the far left who trades ideological purity for pragmatism, millions seem to die.

I look at leftist infighting with happiness because the kinda of people who infight like this are also unlikely to put me up against a wall.

You're doing shady stuff with some fucked up people and it could be anybody incl the feds so reputation is invaluable. I imagine its like ratings on ebay but much much higher stakes.

How well this system works depends directly on the delta between how influential the platform is vs how influential the accused is. As you mention, eBay for the longest time was one of the only/biggest way to sell things online, and reputation on there could make or break how successful your business would be. Similarly, if this forum is used by the majority of people doing business on the dark web, then obviously it…

If they're known to scam customers, I doubt that their community will take off. People will research you when they offer such sums. You can, of course, start anew, but it will take a lot of work to get back to the reputation level where people are trading 7 digits with you. Getting banned from the forum is more of a gesture, the impact is a lot larger.

Of course, it's a different topic if the decision was against them for clearly unfair reasons.
