This feels like a good audience for Erowid.

I'm sure there's already a significant overlap.

Erowid facilitated my deep dive into psychedelics in 2010 or so. Such a treasure trove on information about harm reduction, dosage, etc.

My old bad trip was meticulously documented and is published on the site (don’t mix cannabis with psychedelics, yo! You don’t wanna get paranoid as the walls are melting)

Funny aside: I think I spent 13 BTC to buy some LSD on the dark web at the time. Years later, the change from that transaction was enough to pay a month’s rent in London. Not only I spent what is a small fortune today, but the parcel was seized by the authorities so I never had the pleasure of trying LSD. Maybe one day…

I hope your dealer held on to your million pounds.

The exact figure eludes me, but it could also have been 130 BTC, as we’re talking 2010/2011 when bitcoin was around $1.

In the 8 figures range today.
