    Is taking drugs immoral?

    of course young beautiful women seem to prefer social situations where there are lots of drugs on hand this is obviously an "immoral" reason, but it does factor into my thinking i don't know about other people, but i have complex motives (and, no, i don't usually hit on such women -- simply...

    Is taking drugs immoral?

    again, i'm not arguing that drugs are good or that rampant drug use in the west cannot be taken as a sign of decadence (though i'd say drug use reflects need as well as sin) rather, my argument is more along the lines that precisely because drugs are illegal and outside the norms of the...

    Is taking drugs immoral?

    plus none of you have yet to establish why consuming drugs is any worse than eating chicken or beef and if it's the criminal and often violent nature of the drug trade that makes it so "bad," then you should consider how legality masks the violent foundations of the powers that be -- which is...

    Is taking drugs immoral?

    i stand by my position way upthread that drugs are essential to any powerful music scene where everyday social identities are broken down and things are on the level obviously not everyone who uses drugs sees drug use as a way to access such a transformed social reality, but certainly a good...

    Camden

    *studying* is not the correct word i ended up having to drop half my classes for the entire year, i.e., kinda got a sweetheart deal on that one, i.e., had to plead nervous breakdown, which was actually pretty damn close to the truth considering all the drugs i did that year my closest english...

    Why nobody rates Jestofunk?

    i can't think of any of their records off hand but i have it in my head that they did a number of really good balearic tracks back in 90/91 so if i can't say that i rate them per se, they at least have a good reputation in my very tiny corner of the universe

    went and saw kech and his partner (the "stuck on earth" crew) again last night at climax on ave b at second street (dara was playing when i showed up -- but i personally find his sets rather boring and flat, too much riffage, not enough power) these guys are the real deal i'll try to alert...

    roots manueva's DJ CREW!!!!!

    the name of the dj is "malcolm" and he's from sheffield -- i.e., he's the guy who played the roots manuva after party (whether that means he's roots manuva's dj is a question i can't answer) he was evidently in nyc last week, but nobody told me about it at the time he'll supposedly be back in...

    oh -- and kech gave me this flyer for friday . . . . yeah, i know, pretty loathsome piece of networking on my part -- i usually avoid such nonsense -- but i actually have valid reasons for liasing with kech (i.e., i've yet to sort it out completely, but it looks like i'll be doing a very...

    ragga-jungle experts...

    you are correct lots of coke and other white powders being snorted off fists lots of weed and -- keeping in mind the bloomberg ban -- cigarettes poppers and yet completely on the one party vibe -- i.e., so little threat or sign of violence that i was in fact surprised when they shut place...

    ragga-jungle experts...

    not to go into full-on missionary zeal about kech . . . . but he's playing friday night at the delancey AND he'll be playing a completely and utterly different set!?! i.e., he's gonna play electro, classic house, hip hop, rock, 70s funk and whatever else suits him so whereas at the rave he...

    Dubstep Party in Brooklyn this Saturday - DJ Joe Nice

    was a pleasure to talk with you (especially liked comparing notes about dissensus) (and thanks for letting me bum the cigs, i'm fairly sociopathic that way) yeah -- that's an issue given the nature of the music but sometimes you gotta take the bad if you want the good if dave were to find...

    What the blinkers is wrong with being a hipster?

    i meant it as a "despite everything" example i.e., once the threshold of "truly hip" is crossed, you remain blessed no matter the gravity or chronicity of your sins
