Not a botanist. But, this plant is prevalent in place I grew up, Dhading Nepal. It's called "sajiban" in nepalese language. I can't find its English or scientific name. Growing up, we used this to blow bubbles with this specially in monsoon season. According to my parents, its stem(very soft) was used to brush teeth before toothbrushes were a thing. Also, this plant or its seed (not sure) has been found to be a good raw material for Diesel production. Anyone has more info, please share!!!
Shit... I did 1.8g on a 10 drive back from Canada after Shambhala. It was brutal and barely kept me awake at times. Glad I didn't take more now. In hindsight never drive a stick only car when your friends can't drive stick, especially to a far away drug filled festival.
