Well, this would fit in a shoe box, and it's worth about $15,000, though I have a 2 ounce vial of carfentanyl that is worth about as much as a metric ton of Heroin.
You shouldn't tell lots of people on the internet that you make mdma.

WTF is that and what is carfentanyl and mdma?
MDMA is Ecstasy.

What is the substance in that pic?

Isn't carfentanyl lethal to humans? Why do you have it?

It's a powerful opiate.

mdma = "e". Carfentanyl is an analog of fentanyl, a synthetic opiate many times stronger than morphiene. Carfentanyl is used on animals, and toxic to humans.

Ahhhh - so that's what it is.

I just noticed that ribbon13 has 80 posts/day! How does he have time to cook up designer drugs?

He's a mad scientist, though. Probably has a hidden lab somewhere and the full nine. He'll be fine.

MDMA is methylenedioxymethamphetamine... what's SUPPOSED to be in ecstasy pills. Carfentanyl I don't know, although it's close to fentanyl, a painkiller in an analgesic patch.

What exactly do you mean... PU-238 powered?

EPIRB's are nuclear? :Q

Wow, this thread exploded.

Technically, it's monetary value, not like the data on your hard drive that took years to collect, or sentimental photos. However, a document representative of an idea- like a patent that collects royalties could count.

Yes it contains 17 curies of PU-238 as an RTG exciter and is registered with the NRC. Its life expectancy is 50+ years so it will outlast me. Worth its weight in gold.

Ever see castaway? This prevents that from happening.

Once I graduate, my diploma as it'll cost me around 160k. As of right now, probably either my graphics card (6800 ultra, 500 + tax) or all my computer games (20+ games, average price of 40 bucks)

That isn't MDMA. It is a very similar phenethylamine however.
Carfentanyl is only toxic to humans in the sense that it would be very easy to overdose on an opioid agonist ~50,000 times stronger than morphine.

No more photo essay here. Sorry.
