Rockstar Blackout

Contrast helps people distinguish objects, both in a physical sense and a conceptual one. Without contrast we would stumble around through a maze of textures and colours that merge together into a unnavigable fog without any sort of distinction. The same is true in the realm of ideas, without good, how would we know evil; without hunger, how would we know satiety? What powerful malignant forces seeks to strip our reality of these bounding rules?

For reasons that I do not yet fully understand, some power of immeasurable evil is using the Rockstar Energy company to unbind the individual components of our shared reality. The power, and here I hesitate to use the word "god" acts on a cosmic scale and, while it has a great potential, it only seems to be able to interact in a tenuous, ambiguous fashion, at least, so far.

Even now the conflict rages. Not a war of steel or electric current, but a metaphysical war that rages in the transitory boundaries between dimensions and realities. 

In our world the exact tool that is being used is the ROCKST★R Blackout energy drink. Eschewed as being a mere variation on a theme, the beverage is a direct conduit to the living semi-physical conscious of the power that seeks to unmake our existence into an infinitely coalescing spiral of dissonance. What that reality will be like is impossible to explain perfectly, but every element: mental, physical, chronological will blend together into one direct concept and there will be no way of differentiation. 

 The message of the product is simple enough in its appalling discordance. It provides both energy and is, at the same time, the absence of energy (expressed through the "Blackout" moniker). Every time a can of the "energy drink" is consumed, the barriers preventing the entrance of the power are weakened as the consumer loses the ability to distinguish reality through the loss of being able to conceptualize contrast.

I am not certain how far along this entity has advanced its plan, but a simple observation of everyday life and the growing amount of apocalyptic events points even the most casual observer in the direction of some great reality-altering calamity.

The concept of universal congruity is alluring yet ruinous like the temptation of an insect before a Venus Fly Trap. 

I no longer know if I should fight against this incursion from the power or if I should give in to the chaos and embrace my animal instincts before our reality is totally torn down and replaced with catastrophic and universal insanity.


  • Location Purchased: the nexus of the power and reality (gas station)
  • Price when Purchased: $3.59 Leafbacks


Taste: Ingesting this beverage loosens the imbiber's grip on reality and the beverage causes temporary hallucinations that inexorably alter the way the imbiber thinks.

Energy: 160mg standard.  

Bottom Line: Every passing second increases my anxiety and I wonder if it would be easier to give in and accept that our reality is being unmade and enjoy it.

5/5 - what is reality anyway?
