Getting stoned at 4pm (at work)

I like to do all of my important tasks while riding my morning high of adderall and coffee, when I start to come down at around 2pm I have a Diet Coke to fuel my last leg of productivity, then 4pm rolls around. I’ve done all of my important work for the day and I’m ready to get creative. I take my dog for a nice little walk down my favorite street and smoke half of a joint, once I’m back at work the vibes are unleashed. I put on some sweet tunes and create gowns from curtains and tablecloths for hours. Before I know it it’s time to pop on my sheepskin coat and dance the night away in a sheer dress. When I get home nice and drunk I take a hit of my joint, sniff some Rush™️, rub one out and fall into a deep sleep surrounded by plants and fish tanks.

1/2 a joint + 1 sq. Block

Lately, every evening at around 6:30/7, I'll pop outside and take a little evening stroll around my neighborhood whilst enjoying no more and no less than one half of a marijuana cigarette. It's the perfect amount and I find myself overwhelmed with appreciation for the life I live and the city I live in. This is exceptionally delightful in crisp, autumn air.

LISTENING TO ALT. VERSIONS OF SONGs

If there's a live version of a song I love I'm gonna listen to it. If there's a demo version of a song I love I'm gonna listen to it. If there's a remix of a song I love I'm gonna listen to it. If there's a cover of a song I love I'm gonna listen to it. Keeps the song fresh, adds variety and gets you more connected with the tune than one recording could. You could find a new favorite version of a song or better yet find that the selection of alternate recordings reflects a larger range of moods. The world wide web is your oyster. In mind right now particularly are Lou Reed's '84 Live in Italy version of Satellite of Love, Helvetia's cover of the Misfits song Hybrid Moments (Helvetia's cover and demo game in general is crazy), MJ Lenderman's take on Knocking on Heaven's Door (Knockin')—MJ also has a stellar live album—any and all versions of the Weight by the Band but specifically Nina Simone's, the Denzel Curry remix of BALD! by JPEGMAFIA. And any live Dinosaur Jr. Happy listening 🍻

DITCH SPOTIFY WRAPPED

I try not to be a hater but honestly this shit is getting on my nerves! I see the same five artists on almost everyone's top five. Nothing wrong with mainstream, but if there's a point to all of this exhibitionism it's probably be to find new music that you might not discover on your own (though that's contradictory to the algorithm... which is a different conversation altogether). Not even to mention that less and less people are using Spotify, which is likely for the best. Instead of posting your Spotify wrapped this year rant about some music that you've really been loving. Maybe it's under the radar, maybe it's not; so long as you love it spread the joy. These are my 2024 AOTY’s: Cindy Lee’s Diamond Jubilee; MJ Lenderman’s Manning Fireworks; Jessica Pratt’s Here in the Pitch; English Teacher’s This Could Be Texas; Waxahatchee’s Tiger’s Blood; Shellac’s To All Trains; Mount Eerie’s Night Palace; Vampire Weekend’s Only God Was Above Us; Geordie Greep’s The New Sound; Mk.gee’s Two Star and the Dream Police Honorable mentions: Charli XCX’s Brat; Adrienne Lenker’s Bright Future; Chief Keef’s Almighty So 2; A Country Western’s Life on the Lawn; Courting’s New Last Name; Hurray For The Riff Raff’s The Past Is Still Alive; The Smile’s Wall of Eyes; Kim Gordon’s The Collective; JPEGMAFIA’s I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU Cheers 'n happy listening 🍻

THE LAST WALTZ

Insane last performance (dir. Martin Scorsese by the way) from one of roots rock's most pioneering bands including appearances from some of the 20th century's rock and folk legends. ~2 hours of The Band, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Joni Mitchell, Muddy Waters, the Staple Singers, and more. Great lineup, great set. If you're into this sort of thing massive pleasure to watch. Thanksgiving got me in the mood. Just found out Scorsese had to spend a shitload of money he didn't have to edit a crack rock out of Neil Young's nose when he was on. Stuff of legends.
