You needing torture devices or laundering services?

I don’t really want to have separate apps for these things

I don’t want my friend to need separate apps also.

We insource our torture. Outside firms never get our branding right and it sends mixed messages to our consumers and adversaries. That said, having a single app for laundering services in each region’s major currency would save me a lot of time and burner phones

OpenBazaar, never took off

I think that had a lot to do with the fact that it was using Bitcoin as the currency and the fact that it was VC funded. Neroshop is Monero and not vc github.com/layters/testshop

I need a brontosaurus, can I get one there?
And caterpillar urine, is that possible?

The brontosaurus is delayed. Something about the courier being eaten by a dilophosaurus? I know you spared no expense, but these things happen.

I'm going to have a melt down! How am I going to put a hex on someone if I can't even illegally procure supplies???
I think I need a nap.
