Lately it's been Fahey's The Dance of Death & Other Plantation Favorites, but I'll always have a soft spot for F#A#Infinity
>favorite drink
A nice nut brown or amber ale, an IPA if the mood strikes me. Otherwise a spicy black tea.
>favorite drug
Nicotine, mostly for frequency and dependency. My most valuable experience on a drug was while on DMT. I've also had some pretty crazy 2C-E trips. I used to smoke copious amounts of weed too, but now I get anxiety and would probably try killing myself if I took psychedelics. It's been 4 years since I touched any and I value the times that I did them well, but it should remain in that period of my life.

>favorite piece of music (album or symphony and so on)

"Romance" from Prokofiev's Lt. Kije Suite. I especially like the first half of this piece -- its melancholy but always lends me a sense of exploration.

Cocaine combines the exhilaration of confirmed mutual sexual desire, the euphoria of repeated victories, the intensity of a near death experience, and the invulnerability of physically fit youth in its first stage, and then it levels out. The second stage is a subdued version of the first, but including a strong compulsion to take more cocaine to avert the diminishment of the first stage. The come down is often the inverse of the first stage, a form of conscious anhedonia typically coupled with a mixture guilt, paranoia, or whatever your particular brand of neuroses deliver.


The ratio of these stages weighs heavily towards the second and third stages with repeated use.

it's a little personal because it's the book that got me in to literature, but it just captures the essence of a time and generation perfectly, the prose is minimalist and beautiful, the vibe is tangible. it carries the whole lost-generation sadness thing so fucking well, all in the subtext.

The way it was written and the subject matter combine to create a very real experience. I've been and done the same things as the characters in the novel. Not literally, I've never been to Spain even let alone a bullfight. But I've had those same trials. The closeness of my male friends bonding over mutual silence in nature. The want that comes over you as a young man in love with a woman you can't have for one reason or another. The endless party of young adulthood where you have obligations but they matter little because the last shreds of invincibility still remain in your soul left over from childhood. It's honest and true, every word. I think that any man who cannot connect with this novel on a deep level is no man at all.

I fold my paper receipts until they can't be folded anymore and throw them in a particular garbage can on the street. Like if I'm leaving a store, I take the receipt. Stand still briefly so I can fold it neatly without messing up the edges or something, I then proceed to walk on as per usual with the folded up receipt (or any piece of paper that i happen to do this with) in my hand usually or in my pocket, until I Finally come to the trash bin, and discard my little creation.

I swear in English much more often and casually, but save my native language, and Russian, for when I'm really angry, because the insults are so much stronger than anything English has to offer. It's an interesting phenomenon, how some languages have "weaker" insults than others.

>>10730468
For me the reason for it may be that I read and watch everything I can in English so for example if I watch a movie I will not translate every sentence to Hungarian in myself or think about it but simply "switch" to English - understand and think in the language. It's way smoother like that opposed to if I were to hear English words and think in my native tongue. This kind of made me very comfortable to use both languages to think, without paying any attention to which one I use even when there is no reason to use English. I guess you have to be quite fluent aswell.

I will run a tap and not wash my hands if I know people might be listening. It gives me a strange satisfaction. I lucid dream a lot now. I'm trying to summon up famous characters using a phone to talk with them. Did you know a dream has a certain rendering point? If you fly too fast, your brain can't create enough detail and will wake you up. Characters in my dreams also seem to refute being told their fictional, and will slip into a form of fairly advanced philosophical idealism if questioned.

>I think I have a mild form of tourettes. I constantly have to close my right eye really hard and/or shake me head to "even out" the sensations on the left and right sides of my body. If something cold or wet happens to touch one of my hands, I have to touch my other hand to the same thing to even it out. Also, I'm obsessed with the number nine and whenever I notice my steps or my fingers tapping on a surface, I have to tap it in sets of three a total of nine times and then stop for a while or else it feels uneven.

>I always know what direction I am facing

Same here, except when I was a kid, all of my directions were 90 degrees off so I've spent the last 15 years retraining my brain to correct its instincts. When I was a kid my grandparents lived an hour due east of the city, but it always felt like we were traveling north so my entire sense of direction was calibrated to my grandparents living north of us. Whenever I think about the direction I'm facing, I say I'm facing "fake south" when I'm facing west, "fake west" when I'm facing north, etc.

I thought this was going to be a lead up to a joke about walking out of the bathroom like a penguin because your legs were asleep.

God damn you to hell

>>10730781
Of course.

I had a dream not too long ago where I was walking around a summer-garden with a good friend of mine. He's a smallish and handsome Indian fellow, and was talking quickly with that good voice of his which poured like thick syrup. I remember so clearly enjoying his company that that I felt guilty, as if I was betraying the actual person, so I turnedand said, "I mean no offence, but I want you to know that this is simply a dream."

He just turned and thought it over for a while, stroking his beard as he returned, "Is it so different when you're not dreaming?" and picked up a flower. I took it from him and felt that indescribable reality of an imagined petal. He continued, twining the hairs of his black beard. "And am I so different in five hours? Am I not equally in your mind then?" He laughed and dropped the flower. "I could say the same thing to you, couldn't I? Yet there's no change either way."

I had no conscious answer to give him back. For the rest of the dream, I was with my friend. I think the conversation deepened, but I cannot remember it, apart from the vague idea of a sea coming along the beach, and the symbolism being lost on me.

I told him about it later that day and he just laughed in exactly the same way. I'm sure it wasn't him, but I liked him immensely more for putting such a thought into my mind, or rather, for providing it's face.

I'm desperate to have a similar conversation with God. At times of real stress, I have the most cripplingly psychological nightmares.

>>10730781
>>10731105
My lucid dreams border on nightmare and prophecy. Ever since i was small my lucid dreams become real. Whether it takes days,months, or even years. They will come true.
As a child you don't really care but as i got older they became more frightening the more i thought on them. It was simple stuff in the beginning what school i was gonna to. When i would get my first kiss. My favorite dream was knowing googles stock prices would rise. Of course that didn't matter because my parents wouldn't buy it and i was ten.
But as i grew older the dream began to lose their innocence. They grew colder more focused on the far future. Until they became nightmares of what awaits the human race. Part of me wishes they weren't my lucid dreams but regular dreams however i am unable to tell the difference when i wake up.
One particular dream has haunted me ever since i had it.
In my dreams a voice calls to me to visit places i've never seen. It tells me this is future man desires. It asks if i too desire to know what the future holds. The question is moot i always want to know what the future holds. He gently takes my hand and brings me to land i've never been but instinctively know is Jerusalem.

>>10731210
I don't really think lucid dreams have particularly psychic properties but what you have seems like a case of a certain subconsious obsession (certainty, future, knowledge etc) that's interacting with your brain's analytical abilities to make fairly accurate predictions. I know for a fact that there's a great deal of knowledge you can plumb from a dream (I once found out my actual pin from entering it into an ATM in a dream) but I wouldn't take them as an absolute prophecy, just a haunting possibility.

If we go to straight to Hell though, I'm sure it'll be by the gates of Jerusalem.

>>10731210
In this land i see a man. One look and you know he is the president a man of stature and power. I hear his plans and i witness what comes next. I see ICBM's fly and strike the holy lands of the Abrahamic Religions.
Jerusalem, Rome.Mecca, Istanbul.Damascus, Baghdad, and Kent.
But thats not what terrifies me, not the loss of lives, the starvation, the cancer, or the nuclear winter to come.
That Man saw me, in my dreams he saw me. Then he opened his mouth and talked to me i don't remember what we talked about and a part of me doesn't wish to remember. Because what he said made me feel pity for that monster. All those people he killed and still he made me feel pity.
Now whenever i go to sleep i try not to have lucid dreams and when i do. I always stay or return home. I don't want to know what the far far future holds.

>>10731105
thank you for sharing, it sounds wonderful joyous. I got goosebumps reading it. i will try to have more lucid dreams in my future.

>Interesting habit that you have

Besides /lit/, I have spent years devoted to the study of Eastern and Western rope bondage.

I am 22 years old, and am likely in the top 3 under 30 skillwise in the greater Philadelphia area. I would say that 13 months ago I would have been #1 on that list. I am otherwise heavily involved in the BDSM community. My specialties include Orgasm control, seduction, rope bondage. I occasionally top for impact play, but in all honesty I'm average in that facet.

In rope, I specialize in suspensions and partial suspensions. I work well with bondage. The term for what I do would be shibari. I do not do kinbaku or ichinawa-kai. I'm relatively nice with my rope, and prefer the aspect of control I get from tying. I also consider it an artistic pursuit.

Pic mostly unrelated. Took it myself on the way to an underground party, Hush if I remember right.

Actually that happens to me often, at times I think in english, or in spanish but I can't control this at will, I'm not a native english speaker but there's been moements when I know just the word, but it's in English, and I can't for the life for me find it's perfect spanish synonym.

>favorite book
The Idiot - I read this at a time that was perfect for me to have been reading it in my life and due to the strong emotional attachment towards it I prefer this over Dostoevsky's other works.

>favorite piece of music
this is a loaded question for me, as I do not have one that ranks above a bunch of others but, Disintegration by The Cure, especially since I just finished listening to it 10 minutes ago for the millionth time.

>favorite drink

>favorite drug
Psilocybin mushrooms, after having done mdma a few times I realized I got similar results from psilocybin mushrooms without the terrible hangover and better visuals and promptly stopped using mdma. Still need to try LSD.

>interesting habit you have
I have an inner monologue that is so loud in my head sometimes that I feel like I am talking out loud in a normal voice when no one is around but clearly I am not.

>>10732282
I tend not to take mandy for the visuals more for the social aspect. Highly Recommend lsd but it's worth having a sober friend in the area just to make sure you're alright on your first time.

>>10732348
I have thought and worried about that in the past and it seems highly unlikely. I don't have delusions, hallucinations, or strange mood swings and my inner monologue is really me just parsing my thoughts for when I can write them down later. The people who really know me have never noticed or said anything about me that would be cause for alarm either. I do suffer from depression though but who doesn't?

>Interesting Habit
My Type I diabetic ass thought it would be a good idea to give myself my daily insulin injection at 1 AM, since I don't go to bed any earlier than that, but now I literally cannot go to bed before that no matter what since I need that shot to live. On a related note, my sleep cycle is completely fucked, to the point where if left to my own devices, I'll regularly go a solid week or two without seeing the sun on the holiday break between semesters. I can actually gradually change the time I take my injection, but I won't since my sleep schedule is so fucked that there's no point.

I count my steps, and have to end any given series in a multiple of 4. For example, steps to the door from my computer? Gotta be 4 or 8. Steps to the kitchen? I try and make it 32, which isn't too difficult since the stairs is exactly 16. Except sidewalks -- each block I do 2 steps
I usually try to estimate for how much seconds or steps i have to hold on when in a boring/ unpleasant situation
