Alkaloids 101

[Finshaggy]

I just looked up Chemical Hygiene, it is a thing. And without clicking any of the search results, I am guessing it means having eye wash stations and stuff. I won't have anything like that, but I will be using Fight Club precautions (acid ready for base, base ready for acid) and I will get Chemistry safety stuff (goggles, gloves, apron) eventually (before I start making more than just regular hash)

I really don't think anyone has done this the way I am doing it, I know it's like "how different can you look at a fossil than the next guy" but I promise this is different.[/QUOTE

I can see how it will be different with the lack of millions of dollars in funding and the sheer number of fossils over a hundred ...man..chemistry and archaeology..what a wonderful combination.

No, no, no. See, you are coming at this all wrong. I study Anthropology (Cultural), not Archaeology. And "Chemistry" is really just an extension of that, or vice versa. Chemistry IS Culture, and Culture IS Chemistry.
I have a unique point of view, seeing as I researched these things very young and on tons of different substances (perspectives).

by the way did you ever get your pet ants to walk across your research chemicals?I hope you were not using raid as your control substance.

 

[rory420420]

you definitely have a unique view..on the english language...good luck.

Not yet. I have to get USD to get RCs for that. I still only get paid in coins and can only buy stuff on Amazon. And I will still be doing that, since the chems I plan on doing it with are NOT analogues of anything else.

It's a more about proper handling of chemicals. A part of which is doing it in a space with proper engineering controls and wearing the appropriate personal protective equipment. As far as an eyewash station you can make one pretty easily. Have a clean reservoir of about 15-20 gal of water with a pump next to your sink. Memorize how to get there from your work space WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED!

Honestly, we won't need to take precautions like this at first (How different can you really think making Wormwood hash is in danger compared to MJ hash). But in a few YEARS when I start making novel chems, we will definitely start being more careful.

I always viewed Marijuana as my father, because it got me into situations that shaped my life and that would have otherwise been avoided. But thinking about it, Alexander "Shasha" Shulgin might be more like a father to me than anything and anyone in the world. He wrote a book that fostered my growth and curiosity. He passed down tools that helped me get to where I needed to be, and did so without bias. And he serves as a role model, even now.

Did you graduate U.C. Berkeley too?

I didn't say that I am like him. I said that he is like a father to me. Huge difference.

Really looking forward to seeing some of your videos man, sounds like nerosoup kinda, will tune back in

 

[Finshaggy]

I am also getting an out of print Marine Biology book that will add a cool aspect. Just BTW.

Yeah, kinda like Neurosoup. Except I will be telling you how to make EVERYTHING and I will be sharing MANY more chemicals and animals than she did.

Just ordered this book "Marine Natural Products" once I introduce this aspect of Marine biology into the RC world, people are going to be looking for more than just Bufo Alvarius toads
I am going to be introducing things that can be made into Cannabinoids and some things that naturally have DMT, etc.

sasha not shasha..

 

[dbkick]

And I have no idea how many hours. This could end up making multiple underground films.

I have been studying the works of Shasha Shulgin since the age of 14, and I have been tasting his tools about just as long.

That part I found totally believable !
What it taste like?

 

[Finshaggy]

Alkaloids are all bitter.

 

[dbkick]

ohhhhh, you meant alkaloids.....my bad.
Have a nice nite!

fin I remember seeing a couple youtube vids of you making some alcohol. how did that turn out??? I've actually been subbed to 2 of your channels for the hell of it for a while lol. I noticed one got terminated
