Ugh that’s awful. I feel very fortuitous to have randomly found a person with ludicrously good stuff. I have had just weird burning foul smelling powder before and I hated it. I’ll get around to acetone washing it one day.

All of the other stuff I’ve tried is 150-200 per ball, and it arrives as a glistening hard slab instead of powder. It’s almost oiley, and tough to separate without using a heated surface. It smells like petrol (and sometimes bananas, I’m guessing that’s how it arrives here!) It feels like nothing when insufflated and a standard line is way too much for me hahaha

I wish I could share. We haven’t done it in yeeeears, and randomly we discovered someone we’re close to is… I’ll just say, “in the game more than we knew.”

I had always received it in little chunks/powder before, and it took a lot to feel much. I’m guessing it was stepped on a lot. Burned and such.

This stuff? It’s one big shiny slab that’s like… oily? Waxy almost? I heat up a mirror before putting it down so the particulates don’t stick to each other. All of my tests are off the charts for it (I have a full reagent kit and a purity kit.) Absolutely wild. None of it burns at all. The best stuff smells like bananas—you can tell it was smuggled somewhere with a banana shipment!
