I'd be surprised if nobody has ever been at least shot at. For whatever entertainment value it's worth, way way back I fucked up and made a bunch of noise outside of a house in the countryside. The owner came out and kind of blindly fired shots into the air in an attempt to scare whatever (me) away. That was an adrenaline dump.

I can't resist a good challenge, hard to put into words why maybe. Sometimes I'll see some ratty old building that clearly hasn't been opened in ages and just have to get through that lock, even knowing full well there's probably nothing amazing inside. Other times, yeah it spills more into urbex. Maybe it's the sense of freedom? Like if shit all went downhill or I did find myself completely lost in life, I always have options. I dunno man, it's hard to explain and I don't expect everyone to get it. If someone tries it and thinks it's lame as fuck, I totally get it.

TBH man I haven't grabbed anything of value in years now. I do keep momentos from really interesting discoveries just as a reminder of the experience. For example an old late 1800s breaker fuse from an abandoned Victorian area mansion. Weird shit like that. Not gonna sit here and act like I'm on any high ground though, still find myself in places I shouldn't be. Plenty of lost soul potential, but then again, we're all here aren't we? I like these parts of the internet, though.

The "night ops" community is still around and "alive" for anyone interested, absolutely. I started this topic here though to branch out from strictly at night and trying to go completely unseen (an old NO rule that's gone a little slack over the years). There's a lot left on the table. What about finding a door during the daytime that's hidden from view and there could be something interesting inside? Or simply a building out in rural country that may be housing something good inside?
All niggas can use the skills developed for other, bigger ideas if they want. NGL, half the time when I complete an entry there's nothing super interesting inside so I just close up and leave. For me though I just enjoy honing the skills. It's like pen testing, but without asking for anyone's permission.
But yeah, that forum still exists.

What, you haven't been keeping up with the growth of trafficking lately?
For real though, I think the old way of going about it is a dead hobby with like 6 people. However, I just enjoy trying out my nerd skills in the night. It's a lot different than picking on a table for me. Bolt cutters and a boot work as well as ever, but picking allows for "farming" if nobody knows anyone else was there.

Yeah no kidding, that's true. Hit up the biggest democrat ran city, hell you can even claim a few blocks as your own!

Sup niggas?
It's been a minute. Years and years ago, there used to be a series of threads at &T called "night ops" where the idea was to test one's ability to sneak into anything you wanted to unnoticed, leaving no evidence. Didn't matter why. Wanted to steal something? Cool, just keep it between you and the fence post.
With the world being so different today, I'm curious if there's still any interest in this? While security measures have gone up and gotten cheaper, we've also gotten some really cool new toys since the &T days. Plus, the general population is dumber than ever. We can still sneak about unnoticed.
Unlike the old night ops days, I see nothing wrong with blending into a crowd when needed.
I know there's a lot of broke ass niggas around, but you should still check out Lishi lockpicking and decoding 2-in-1 tools to whet your appetite on this. Imagine you being able to pick schlage and kwikset locks within a minute or two. They take almost all of the difficulty right out of the equation. Bonus: they make it easy for you to make your own copy of the key later for access whenever you like. You won't be breaking into anything crazy, but many offices, schools, stores and more still use schlage and kwikset.
They also make Lishi tools for vehicles if that's of any interest. What say you jaded fucks?
As healthy as I can be. I've got a bit of muscle on me and a big frame, I do the best I can but it's not really ideal having a FFMI above a certain level.

Anyone heard of kava?
I've never really been too excited about it, it doesn't do much. Has a mild calming sensation. Makes the mouth go a little numb. I have a bag of the stuff but it's a pain in the ass to make, doesn't taste all that great, all for a forgettable experience. There's too many other interesting items out there that are easier to take.
I don't know if I "like" bundy but I certainly respect it. I honestly don't think it's worth taking if you don't hit at LEAST a higher 3rd plateau though. Last trip I had, I kept spacing out and imagining my limbs becoming tree trunks that were growing roots into every surface I touched. Then when I closed my eyes just tons of music visualizer-esque imagery.

What's a good first gun?
There are TONS of good platforms, my advice is to get something in a generally effective caliber (.45, .40, 9mm, etc.) and practice practice practice. As a beginner, even a cheap Hi-Point is going to out shoot you. What I would do is get a good Glock, upgrade to night sights, leave everything else alone and spend the rest of your budget on ammo. Glocks aren't perfect and you may end up preferring something else down the road, but they're low cost, effective, and they WORK.
If you don't have anyone local to instruct, I recommend looking into Magpul Dynamics and other informational videos online by REPUTED sources such as Haley Strategic and guests on his channel. Watch, then apply what you learn at the range. Training will take you way further than buying the best pistol and just having it lay around. After that, you'll start to form your own opinions on what you'd like in a pistol and you can go from there without having to ask here.

Steroids
Consider SARMs if you're concerned about sides on steroids. LGD-4033 will definitely increase your maxes in a six week cycle. A strong AI and basic testosterone boosters afterward as a PCT are sufficient as long as you don't have pre-existing hormonal imbalance problems.
Hippocras. Had some old elderberry wine that was complex enough to spice up with some sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cream of tartar. Delicious, and a good mug of it will get you pretty well hammered.
Stash jasmine blossom tea. It's decent tea.
Gekkeikan sake. It's alright. Just cheap sake.
If you're looking for a physical energy rush type of feeling, no. You won't feel an energetic burst. It's nothing like adderall (obviously since it's basically designer meth) or modafinil/adrafinil.
You may be interested in caffeine co-crystals, specifically co-crystalled with pterostilbene. The short list is that it sort of extends the energetic effects of the caffeine so you're energetic longer and given more of a letdown than a straight up crash. Unfortunately that particular co-crystal has been patented on the commercial market as "PURENERGY" which I've only ever seen listed in a few select, shitty pre-workouts with mystery amounts of ingredients so you have no idea if anything is even in an effective amount.
However, you can buy both caffeine-anhydrous and pterostilbene in bulk powders and ball mill them to create your own. Co-crystals in general might interest you if you want to take a DIY route to better items.
