I noticed I can’t post any Teks on here without comments like this.

Dude unless you use the worst quality of plastic you have nothing to worry about.

someone's trying to be helpful. that's not something to bitch about, even if it's not as fresh and new as you want. it just makes you look bad for complaining, and doesn't encourage sharing of information for fear of a similar response.

i mean its old news to you, but it's not to everyone. i never knew about dmt-nexus or the other techs. there's something to be said for reposting old info, if only because not everyone has heard of such info or even knows to search for such things. sure, most people have heard of blood oranges and pink lemonade, for instance, but a lot of people i met never knew you used blood oranges to make the later when i mentioned it as they bought some of the former.

i get what you're saying, but there's always going to be new faces that are thankful for people bringing it up. it's not for you, and that's fine - but i feel like discouraging such things isn't helpful, especially since:

This is a very simple TEK that can be found online. So I used it myself and got pretty good results.

Thank you! I felt like screaming the same exact thing at psions face 😂. If someone was actually interested in extracting dmt they would know about the dmtnexus! Personally I could never take advice from someone to cheap to buy a good Turkey baster. I've seen a couple videos online of people using plastic extraction vessels and turkey blasters. I always want to choke them out because you know other people are going to copy them.

i do know about the dmtnexus... now. i was interested in extracting dmt before, but it's thanks to this thread that i found out about it. =p

when someone is interested in something, they don't magically pull knowledge from the akashic library on where to find said information. (if they did, they'd just use the akashic library anyways, since it's supposedly where all knowledge that exist goes.) they ask and look around, and they find answers (or dont) one way or another. and sometimes people don't even know they're interested until a thread like this pops up and enters their awareness, and they realize that it's not such an intimidating thing to do as they thought.

ya'll are sounding like librarians arguing that books are enough, there's no need for an internet, because of the potential for misinformation spreading and redundant information. yes, there's potential for both - but it also leads to discussions like these, and on occasion, the birth of new and improved techniques, or new information. if not to you, to other viewers, particularly newer members. it's all well and good to tell someone to search for something, but often times newer people don't even realize there's something to search FOR. before you can search for something, you first have to actually realize that something exists.

and i get your concerns about the plastic, i really do... but guess what? not everyone cares about that. i know i really don't. i realize that plastic is bad for your health, blah blah, but it personally doesn't really terrify me. the FDA only finds low to minimal concerns over it, mostly over infants, children, pregnant women, and kids hitting puberty. im well past all that, and unless some new, conclusive studies show there's a very definite link between BPA and adult health, i'm not going to sweat it, especially since i use plastic tuppaware and drink from plastic water bottles already anyways. a lil more plastic is just another twig in a bonfire, so i'm not going to sweat it if that's all you can find.

if you want to use a glass turkey baster, go right ahead. of course, that's not without it's own risks, such as you tripping, and stabbing yourself in a vital spot with a nice sharp shard of glass embedded in there. :P a low risk to be sure, but one that doesnt exist with plastic.

it's fine to ask people to correct their posts so it's more informative, complete, and less misleading...but to expect that from the internet is more laughable than a lolcat picture. it's not a library that's curated by professionals and proofread by professional editors. it's just a glorified chat room where normal people talk to normal people, sharing information (and misinformation), on a woldwide scale. treat it as such. just point out (gently) when there's a mistake, and ask if they can edit their post to fix it, and the reasons why it's wrong.

if you really care about accurate information, going YOU'RE WRONG AND YOU'RE TERRIBLE, HOW CAN YOU DO SUCH THINGS, DO IT MY WAY is not a very effective way of getting people to change their minds and get what you want. you should've learned that when you grew up past like... age 4.

if all you care about is bringing other people down and making yourself feel better in the process, on the other hand... well, you're doing a great job, keep it up~!
