No I'm not. I'm trying to point out that you need to keep reading and researching… takes more than an hour anyway. Forgive me if I come off dismissive or like I'm treating you dumb. Not at all my intention.
Sorry, I disagree with you. If one can read, one can learn chemistry. Motivation, drive, and desire are all needed here.
Also you make it sound complicated talking about "knowledge of sublimation points, chemical washes", etc. It's not arcane knowledge & wizardry, this stuff, is all I'm saying. Hear me out…
- For the "guest readers" ☞ sublimation is when something changes phase from solid to gas w/o becoming liquid first.
- Iodine does this, DMT does this, and so does MSM.
- If you'd like to know more, here's Wikipedia on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimation_(phase_transition).
- Check out the link on that page to the chemistry apparatus called a "cold finger".
Let's say you make a bolognese sauce from a red wine reduction. Flavor-wise,
is this not an extraction? Boiling is essentially refluxing, and cooking spaghetti involves boiling/refluxing, filtration, washing, oftentimes the Maillard reaction, etc. I could even write it out in organic chem lab notation, like,
To a 3L vessel appropriate for a steam bath, there was added 1,100mL of dihydrogen monoxide, and this was rapidly brought to a boil. Then, 500 g of spaghetti noodles were added to the mixture over the course of 30 seconds with stirring. The mixture was returned to boil and allowed to reflux for 7 minutes. The heat was cut and the solution allowed to cool for another minute or so before being strained through a mesh filter, the dihydrogen monoxide discarded, and a few mL of olive oil added to the noodles to improve internoodle lubricity…
… you know;
that kinda shit.
Back in the days of The Hive, people were quick to reply to things with a "UTFSE"… that was a little rude, if effective.
Look, if you walk into a room and someone says, "hey, turn on the light, please", you don't have to be able to describe in full detail every nuanced thing that goes into making electricity work from the power company to the room you're in just to turn on the lights, ya know? All you need to know is:
flip the switch. Then, if you feel like reading all about how power and electricity work, fine, use the light to read a book about it or whatever, but the point is: flip switches in the meantime and commit yourself to subconscious competency.
- That's the entire reason I'm on these threads – to spread awareness bc it's overall a goal of mine to help society end the war on drugs through decriminalization and eventually full legalization.
- I think the word you meant there was “banal”, not “benign”, but either way I took your meaning and I feel like you're reading me wrong here.
- All I'm pointing out is: this info can be acquired simply by searching. Try it out.
