Bong in one hand, weed vape in the other, a can of Pepsi on the coffee table, and Suicidal Tendencies on my stereo. ST doesn’t make the most out of my two subwoofers but they compliment the Pepsi quite a lot.
A dark and stormy, a joint, and an Aesop Rock record on.
That sounds like a 10/10 experience.
A joint and a documentary. Probably history, nature, or mythology
Methamphetamine and cocaine in order to get nice and focused. Diet coke to keep a clean palate and provide a refresher as needed, but when the focus dies down, more meth and coke until I feel like my head is going to literally explode. While this is going on, I’m listening to Babymetal, Electric Callboy and any other party metal that gets my juices really flowing. I am relaxing, but I might clean the house also, sometimes Jesus just calls me. Eventually, it feels like I’m going to actually physically die so I decide the up cycle is over and I need to come nice and down. I take two hits of molly (which will be just fabulous in 20 minutes or so) but in the meantime, I need to take the edge off immediately, so I shoot two (fat) shots of Woodford Reserve Bourbon (typically Distiller’s Select, but I’ll slum on the basic stuff any day). This is the part where Pink Floyd is queued up. Typically Dark Side of the Moon, but also A Momentary Lapse of Reason, because the tears of Roger Waters fans serve to sustain me in these moments. I might also queue up some Dream Academy just to drive my love of David Gilmour home. The Molly kicks in, and I’ll almost always decide it’s time for a fruit and cheese board, grapes and brie, mixed nuts, apple slices and a really dry Manchego. Two more shots of Woodford and we’re just starting to get comfortable. Heroin is hard(er) to come by - but if I have it, it’s time to shoot it up. 10mg in .5ml suspension will be more than enough to complement the Woodford. If not, Fentanyl it is: I spin the wheel of fortune on the Mexican Percocet. Holy shit, I’m really feeling the groove now. This is where my love of 80s pop ballads kicks in. Stalwart standards like Duran Duran, Thompson Twins and Howard Jones pastiched with glam favorites like Poison, Motley Crue and Ozzy Osborne (God rest his soul). At this point I’m beginning to lose my ability to do remain conscious, and a nice glass of Merlot is absolutely necessary. The night must end with Enigma - anything off of Cross of Changes will do. If I remember anything in the morning, then I didn’t do it right and I need to start over.
This reads like American Psycho
Amateur hour out here?
Jk, this is the way. Pretty much my exact Tuesday night.
KEXP radio, lemongrass kombucha and BBQ’ed coalho cheese (kind of like cheese curds… but different, it’s a Brazilian thing).
The radio I found out about it today, despite playing a plethora of different styles, I’m quite impressed how the curation is of excellent quality.
Nice choice.
I sometimes listen to KEXP, I discovered it along with a lot of other interesting radios using the Garden Radio app.
My favorite is a NZ radio called Brian FM.
I’d puff a few hits of the oil vape out on the porch and stick a fat prilla of swedish snus under my lip. By my side a cup of herbal chai tea or seltzer, maybe a nice beer or just still water. Throw on a record - I’ve got The Beatles, Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, pink Floyd, Radiohead, spoon, dr dog, the shins and a lot more!
OR turn on my ham radio for some scan and chill on the uhf/vhf repeaters where the other weirdos of my flavor chat about nerd stuff and life, trade gossip and just generally hang out at night.
Tall boy of Honey Brown and Pure Comedy by Father John Misty.
Drink: Chateau St. Michelle Riesling (with ice).
Music: Jazz… tonight in honor of Chuck Mangione.
Beer and a charcuterie board and listening to either John Denver or the Stuff You Should Know podcast.
Favorite sysk sting? I like the bluegrassy one and the one that’s in tribute to Pavement, myself
Big ol’ fat hand cannon of a joint, listening to roots reggae.
I’ve never heard anyone use the term “consumable item” outside of games.
Some htfse dabs, a bottle of home-bubbled water with a shot of lemon, and my viagra boys playlist turned up to 11.
Black Butte Porter and Fleshgod Apocalypse’s album Labyrinth
A pepperoni pizza and ice tea since I don’t drink. And on the stereo I’d have lofi playing while I mellow out
I don’t know if I have a favorite consumable. Let’s see, if a drink, it could be tonic water or some homemade lemonade with tonic, or it could be bubble tea, or it could be fireball or botrytis if I’m feeling like something alcoholic.
Foods might be chocolate, ice cream, chips, cake, prosciutto, olives, blue cheese and crackers
Drugs would be mushrooms but I wouldn’t consider that a relaxation companion.
I don’t think I put anything on my stereo if I want to relax. Like if I did, I wouldn’t have the food or drinks. I get easily overwhelmed like that. Scrap the food and drink and put carbon based lifeforms
