Yerb and Herb

A special yerbandherb session this morning. Flor de lis in the mate, shared through the magic of the internet with the friend who introduced me to yerba. It isn't the same as passing a mate back and forth but it'll have to do.

Not pictured - LSD (weed strain) in the bowl.

This one has the weird shield thing. I'm hoping it helps with some of the sin palo yerbas that don't have the structure to prevent clogs after several refills.

So far so good with cachamate coconut, but that's a pretty standard con palo cut.

Mint Jelly weed in the vape to go with it.

Who doesn't love toasting herb and sipping yerb? Crazy people, that's who! Hierbas Silvestres No.3 in the mate, blue dream and green crack in the bowl.

Today's companion is an e-reader, a portal to whatever dimension you choose. I'm planning on several hours of yerbandherb and a lot of page turning today.

I'm smoking weed. Yerbandherb.

This stuff is delicious if you are a lover of smooth, smoky yerbas.

!Some tasty yerba in the automate today

!It's mate mate!

Today's yerbandherb-

CBSé red berry terere with half a dozen strains in rotation. Delicious!

I'm smoking weed about it.

Sipping cachamate and vaping some herb. 420/10 would recommend. A little music to accompany the morning.

And of course some bud in the recycler.

Drinking rosamonte with some chilled water

Vaping Triks with some warm water

Listening to The Garden in the walled garden.

It's a good life.

> From centuries-old sacred rituals to energy drinks, one psychoactive plant has spread throughout the globe. > > As with other caffeine-rich plants, yerba mate’s history is bound up in colonialism and exploitation. Folch looks at its Indigenous history, from when the Guaraní people first began to steep this energizing brew centuries ago in what is now Paraguay. Yerba mate was so central to life in the region that its name in the Guaraní language simply means “plant.” > When Spanish conquistadors and Jesuit missionaries realized its value, the drink quickly spread throughout the South American continent. > > Mate became an important part of this interesting South American economic circuit that included silver mines in [what is now] Bolivia. All the precious metals were being shipped to Europe, so mate became [currency] in South America. It became really popular in the growing, cosmopolitan city of Lima in the 1600s. > > Coffee arose in the 1400s, also through mystic practice, through Yemeni Sufi mystics consuming it. Then it radiates through Arabia, gets to Turkey, and moves westward across Europe in the form of the coffee house. It’s in the 1600s that caffeinated products became really important as not just rituals of spiritual connection and community building, but in connection to work. They’re very connected to the idea of focused extended time, thinking about and being precise on something. > > The classic argument is that the combination of caffeine plus sugar allowed the 19th-century industrial boom in the North Atlantic world. This is why in basically every factory or every office, there is a coffee machine in our coffee-drinking world, or a tea kettle. > > Brazilian mate producers in the 19th century tried so hard to get into the North American market. [Around that time] Brazil became the king of coffee and then they were like, “We’ve got this other stimulant. Maybe we can sell it, too.”

A mate full of yerba and a bowl full of herb. Rip, refill, repeat.

Smoke weed every day

I'm smoking weed and drinking yerba, as is tradition.

Listening to some tunes, spending time with the dogs. It's a good life.

I've seen this community, I know what herb is but have only a vague idea what yerb is. Can someone help a brother out?

Yerbandherb- the breakfast of Uruguayan overachievers and stoners everywhere.

I'm toasting herb and sipping yerb watching Logan Sargeant yeet a car off a curb.

It's too late to drink yerba mate if I want to sleep today so instead I emptied my washed yerba into my compost barrel with my abv.

I'm smoking weed about it.

Yerbandherb!

Canarias in the mate and white widow in the bowl

It's time to yerbandherb with some canarias and some Triks.

Leafly link for Triangle Kush (Triks is an auto flowering variant)

I'm smoking weed and drinking rosamonte, life is good.

Rosamonte special selection and Blue Dream to start the day, what are you yerbandherbing?

Blue Dream Leafly Link

I was inspired by @hamid@vegantheoryclub.org and stole his idea of composting yerba and abv. Originally the plan was to get a terracotta pot but when this half barrel was on clearance unexpectedly today I decided to use that instead.

Now future yerbandherb sessions will eventually help fuel even more yerbandherb sessions.
