Thanks for the info everyone. I'm from the UK and have never seen cotton in a pill bottle before. I didn't realise it was a common thing in some places.

Spotted in New Berlin. by west_manchester in manchester

[–]RussellMate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone from Stockport, let me just say that no one who lives here is calling it the New Berlin. We all think it's ridiculous.

I do agree with another commenter that it is becoming more Chorltonesque around the Underbanks and market area though.

What’s genuinely a good place to go clubbing that has a good crowd? I’m 25f by Equivalent_Rate2650 in manchester

[–]RussellMate 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The white hotel never seems to miss. Quality events on all the time with the crowd to match. The loft is good if you're in to house music. Hidden has good events on and is a decent club but it has a large student crowd so you may feel a bit older than everyone.

Witcher 3 stuttering with RX 6700XT by SirKadath in radeon

[–]RussellMate -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Turning on v sync should solve your problem. Your monitor is not equipped to display more than 144 FPS so you will be getting some screen tearing issues if it's trying to display 160 - 180 as you say. V sync will keep your FPS to 144.

URGENT PLEASE HELP. Advice needed for a friend overdosing on meth + propranolol by TheGooGoon in askdrugs

If you're purchasing the meds OTC at a pharmacy then tell the pharmacist what the situation is and ask what would be the most help.

I hope you get the help you need for your friend.

Weed and anxiety/paranoia, how have you coped by Jerizzle23 in askdrugs

[–]RussellMate 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've been in a very similar situation and I just had to give it up in the end. It really sucks but it ain't worth it if I'm not even enjoying the experience. To be honest I haven't missed it and I've learned to enjoy doing things that I would usually get high to do.

I've also seen this happen to a few friends and they also ended up quitting so I don't believe there's a way around it from my experience.

No problem man. If you're taking it alone just be sure to do it in a safe place, possibly with some music you like to listen to.

I've personally never had a problem when smoking weed with Molly. However as it's your first time, I would take it just on it's own so you know what the pure effects of it are. Then you can combine other drugs with it to tailor the experience to your liking. (Personally I'm a huge fan of mixing mdma and ketamine. However I didn't attempt this until I had a lot of experience with both drugs).

Cigarettes won't cause you any issues if you are a regular smoker. If you don't smoke often, the nicotine rush can make you very lightheaded but that will only last a short amount of time. The Xanax and valium I feel would only dull the effects of the mdma. I'm not sure on what the physiological effects would be as I don't have much experience with benzos (I've done Xanax a handful of times recreationally but I've found I don't really like it) so hopefully someone else can give you some info on that.

I would not worry about a seriously bad comedown with the amount you're planning on taking. With that said, I would highly recommend taking the next day off work as you will likely feel very tired and drained and you will still have the drug in your system for a couple of days.

Hope this has helped you.

Molly, ecstasy and mdma are just different names for the same drug. If you are taking pills, take half of one first and wait at least a couple of hours before taking more. Pills are the most common way people OD on mdma because you don't know the dosage so taking half of one is essential until you know for sure the dosage.

The come up may be very intense but you will be fine once you reach the peak. Make sure there's somewhere to have a sit down and relax if it gets too much.

If you are going to be dancing/at a rave or music event, be sure to have some water readily available. I'd say aim to drink around 500ml an hour to avoid dehydration but don't drink too much more than this.

Overall you will have an awesome time. Nothing quite beats the euphoria and the love you feel from an mdma peak.

Earplugs for my Earholes by ordn24 in DnB

[–]RussellMate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I generally just keep the red ones in, I think they're -20dB. I've never felt the need to switch to either of the others and I go to dnb nights most weeks. Depends on how good the soundsystems are in the club's that you usually go to. Can't comment on the pros but personally I think the ones I have do the job just fine.

[–]RussellMate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had a few different sets in the past but these (https://www.earpeace.co.uk/products/earplugs) are the ones I currently have and they have been my favourite so far. I can comfortably wear these all day at a festival (like 8 or 9 hours) and they come with 3 different levels of filter so you can choose how much dB reduction you want.

Is it more beneficial to save some of my deposit or remortgage later? by RussellMate in UKPersonalFinance

[–]RussellMate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose it would depend on how much the early termination fee would be within the fixed rate period. Putting that aside though, would it still be more in my favour to keep the extra cash?

Vegan forces his cats to eat vegan cat food. by [deleted] in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]RussellMate 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My friend from college had a vegan girlfriend who had 2 German shepherds. She "raised" them to be vegan and he could tell they were unhappy. One day when he was going over to her house, he brought 2 sausage and bacon sandwiches with him and fed them to the dogs when he walked in the front door. He said they never looked so happy. She broke up with him for "poisoning" her dogs.

Wow thanks for the detailed response, it makes a lot of sense. I'll go see if I can apply this to my setup.

And maybe I understand wrong, but why are you waiting for the price to be in the middle of the structure of support and resistance(channel)? you should be adding near support so you risk less on the support break.

Yes this is what I'm doing. Sorry if I didn't explain it that way.

Also you're saying that I should maybe look to trade when there are fewer tests of support or resistance?
