The Dude in your ear in a non annoying (just a bit annoying) ASMR. Saying things in his handsome raspy voice. Things. Calming you down. Telling useless tales. Sage wisdom. Highisms. Being an oddball. You order well at restaurants. Is that a man waving to you or an eagle? No. It's Jeff Bridges' Sleeping Tapes. Sweet dreams.

There is nothing more comforting to me than listening to Terrence Mckenna talk– he jams out with words in such a way that I find myself entranced and very, very sleepy. His lectures are readily available on the internet, and most are long enough to sustain that initial descent through hypnagogic tunnels and down into the underworld. I do have a requirement, which is that Mckenna himself must do the talking. An audiobook narrated by a neutral sounding professional voice actor will not do. For the uninitiated, McKenna has some very electrifying ideas about the nature of reality. However, I wouldn’t know much about it because his gentle and strangely metered way of speaking knocks me out after about 20 minutes of listening. Sweet dreams.

Not sure why but seems slept on that David Lynch wrote and reads his own audiobook. There‘s amazing storytelling, wisdom, sound effects and peace to be found by listening to this. Especially if you are living the art life 💯

And pink and red striped marimekko slippers.
Because I'm having tea on the balcony watching the rain and because this dress is a big A-line sack made from a cotton bedspread its literally the most comfortable moo moo in the world that doesn't look like a moo moo.

Is my favourite documentary in the world. Stylishly directed in black and white by Bennett Miller (best known for Capote and Moneyball), it circles around the magnificently exuberant existence of the playwright turned apple city tour guide Timothy "Speed" Levitch as he muses on the city of NY on and off his double decker bus.
I have a tendency to let my frustrations of the world to clench my muscles up and this is the film equivalent of a lump of mdma to melt my heart back open again with every rewatch. A poet can have an intense love affair with a bridge and a great poet can word it in a way that convinces you that they're not mad; or that even if they are, they are mad in the exact way life is supposed to be experienced in the first place.
A must-see for anyone who holds a warm spot in their heart for the insomniac city, or at least what it once could be through the eyes of an intensely intuned romantic eccentric.
