    Can't Get My Palate Cleansed Post-Smoking

    I got you bro. They said something along the lines of “you don’t know me” and also “nobody likes x”. Mild hypocrisy. How can they speak for everyone after saying not to? The “rude” comment seems millennial, as a millennial myself. (Will I be massacred for this comment? I can hear the angry...

    Can't Get My Palate Cleansed Post-Smoking

    If I had more space I would grow a food forest, easily. I love it. My first tobacco experiment t was a failure, you can't start them in shade in Florida, the sun is too harsh to transplant. So I started them in direct sunlight this time and they're all growing pretty well. Got about 5-6...

    Can't Get My Palate Cleansed Post-Smoking

    Lucky for me all I drink is water, beer, and liquor, like nature intended. Slightly kidding. I see someone mentioned tulsi/holy basil. I just last night made my grandma a tea with holy basil, lemongrass, and spearmint that I grew. I don't eat honey but I added honey and ginger (which I'm also...

    Can't Get My Palate Cleansed Post-Smoking

    I use a Water Pik and a tongue scraper. Scrape as far back as you can, don’t use the scabby things on the back of toothbrushes. Get a flat bent metal scraper, Ayurvedic tongue scrape it’s often called. I am 100% convinced moisture level affects the post-smoke palate. When my tobacco is too dry...

    Too Hot to Smoke?

    I’m in Florida and it’s ridiculous. I’m ready to initiate the beginnings of mass migration. Smoking fruity VaPers and trying lightly topped blends like rum tinged G.L. Pease Navigator as well as more cigars in the meantime.

    How Far down the Bowl do You Go?

    Once I even remotely question continuing, it's usually not worth it. Same with a cigar. As much as I cherish the tobacco, and do find it difficult to let go of, I've been stopping a bit earlier lately and enjoy it more. I am trying to diminish the need to force myself to continue just because...

    New Handmade Haul

    Tech has it’s place, how else could I post here. It’s just not a focus of mine anymore. I view tech as one big tool rather than each individual thing as it’s own segment. It’s also killed a lot in its path, no tobacco shops near me. Tech has ruined community. Barely anything can be sustained on...

    New Handmade Haul

    Good because I gave up on academia long ago. Studied some engineering and coding in college. Always hated it. Walt Whitman’s “When I heard the learn'd astronomer” comes to mind. I find great pleasure in manifesting something physical with my hands. Money doesn’t matter to me, I just want to eat...

    Favorite and Everyday Coffee

    It’s humorous (not in a bad way) when connoisseurs of some things prefer simple things elsewhere. I remember Anthony Bourdain absolutely did not care for craft beer. everybody has their idiosyncrasies.

    Favorite and Everyday Coffee

    I have a small collection of brewers... AeroPress is my quick, 2 minute go to. For espresso the Cafelat Robot is primetime, anything beyond it is a diminishing return on investment, the only electric machine I would buy is an Olympia Cremina if I want purist aesthetics, and a Decent if I want...

    Anyone Play Video Games?

    Get some VR and try it then. I know they’ve rereleased it about 50 times but VR is the only rerelease worth its salt.

    New Handmade Haul

    Title edited for caps. Rule 9 Kraig Sederquist of SederCraft substituted per request -jpm Managed to snag this pipe from Kraig Sederquist of SederCraft. I both absolutely loved it because it’s perfectly sized, a little smaller and the colors remind me of tobacco and coffee. It will be useful in...

    Favorite and Everyday Coffee

    I started roasting beans about a year ago because it's the only way I could get organic coffee at reasonable prices. Prior to that I had a local roaster I would exclusively buy from. He only offered 4 single origins but they were utter perfection. So far the year of roasting has been purely...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? - 2022

    This Montecristo… don’t remember the specific name. Pardon the light, outdoors and did it with a match. currently watching Premiere League soccer.

    Anyone Play Video Games?

    I play anything... 28 years old, I grew up during prime time. I've toned down lately because I don't have time with the garden and making electronic music, and I randomly got addicted to watching soccer about a year ago... And these blasted forums. I was heavily into FFXIV. When I snagged a...

    Filters

    I exclusively smoke filters but... I managed to snag a handmade pipe from SederCraft and well, it doesn't have a filter. So I guess I don't always smoke filters anymore.
