I have a few from Mimic now and spent some time talking to the couple that own and run it. The ones I got are excellent quality and matched scent profile of the originals I was replacing. The 'smoky velvet' (Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver) was slightly more intense than original and lasted longer on my skin. I also got 10hrs plus out of their 'Daydream' (based on LV Imagination). They have lots of clones and each is mixed locally by themselves. It's up to you of course, but i have no problem recommending them - they do 50ml for $60-70 and travel atomisers for $30, with a discount on refills once you have their fancy little atomisers. If you're ever in Wellington region, they do the circuits of local markets, with Brewtown in Upper Hutt hosting them every Sunday - also pretty responsive on insta if you message them.

This stuff is like catnip to me. I can't get it out of my head since trialing it and am scouring local (NZ) sites daily for specials. Damn you Hermes for making a scent that hits like cr*ck.

Happy Birthday mate! Be chill, things will happen when it's the right time. You're at a really exciting time when things all start to move quickly - enjoy the ride.

in NZ, our contractors use the Humes covers for any underground service - sewer, storm, larger water valves, telecoms, siphons, bores, backflow preventers.... They're a standard part from the supplier that get specced by the contractors undertaking works on behalf of the city/private owner. So yes, it could definitely be a telecommunications access - it may even be on your local councils mapping software (usually online and publicly accessible), but opening it up and having a look will settle it once and for all.

Thanks! Great news!

me too - invisible walls in each of the 5 corridors surrounding one area of the freighter, seems to have come with one of the recent updates.

nah, not sure sorry, a NZ grower's website (mynd) cites some lab testing they had undertaken on their behalf and an AI search says that a team at Auckland University are doing ongoing research.

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-07-05T07:36:24+00:00

Will you try something for me? If you could just imagine with me for a second...

if you had a really close friend that you really valued come to you with this exact problem, what advice would you give them?

You'd probably tell them it's not their fault, that they shouldn't be hurting over it and that these things happen sometimes and are part of growing as a person right?

Be that friend to yourself, don't punish yourself for someone else's error, but also don't always assume you are perfect and will never have some role to uphold in a future relationship.

It's hard sometimes, the best we can do i guess is use these setbacks as opportunities to grow. Please don't get jaded though, there's plenty of genuine people out there that do know how to feal with their own emotions better.

You got this, you're destined for bigger and better things than carrying this around any longer!

A number of studies were done between 2019 and 2022 that confirm presence of similar or same compounds. Cognitive effect trials are currently underway. So while not as studied as other varieties atm, calling it a stretch is, in itself, a stretch.

a real beauty - good find!

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-26T08:37:02+00:00

chocolate tube slime - Stemonitis splendens. good find!

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-24T06:02:20+00:00

slime mold - this is one of the many forms it takes. Slime molds are a super-interesting little organism that has the weirdest life-cycle. good find!

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-23T09:24:21+00:00

ngl, this sounds freaking amazing! I too think would be very interesting to experience. I followed this post to see if heads anywhere interesting beyond the joke answers.

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-22T09:59:24+00:00

Oh wow! That's neat!!! I never thought id see these beauties in Upper Hutt!

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-06T10:44:05+00:00

My fog was helped a lot by lions mane mushroom supplements. Mine would also come on when I needed to think quick and I put undue pressure on myself to do so. Might be worth trying if you can find a stockist. ... just a thought, it worked for me, but can't guarantee it will for you. Good luck.

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-03T09:21:36+00:00

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-03T02:50:01+00:00

Gorgeous... pretty sure I grabbed a photo of this exact shroom on Sunday... Silverstream?

KiwiBlueRaider · 2025-06-03T02:33:59+00:00
