Help me fill my board!

Hey ILFers.
So I've been starting to put together a guitar board more for personal enjoyment/just for fun jamming/noodlin'/etc (I'm a bassist, guitar is just a hobby).
Playing a Fender Jazzmaster, finally buying an amp in the coming weeks.
Started a collection of pedals to get myself going, wanted to see what else people would suggest, I'm pretty open to anything!
My current setup includes:
-SS/BS Fuck
-SS/BS No Memory
-Effector 13 Shoegazer
-EQD Rainbow Machine
-Fulltone SupaTrem
-Boss PH-3
-Shitty Boss Looper (until I get something better lol)
-Got a Dr. Scientist Cosmichorus on the way.
I like to play weird/spaced out/shoegaze kinda shit and Sonic Youth-ish kinda ish as well.
What would yall add??? (I do have a bunch of other pedals on my main bass board, but kinda want this to be it's own thing).

This, or a Ghost Echo, RRR, or one of the Mr. Black 'verbs.
Who am I kidding, I use an RV-3 for my Sonic Youth/Shoegaze bullcrap and I really like it.
I've also been really digging wah for shoegaze/90s noise type stuff. Especially if you have it between dirt circuits
Can make for really cool controlled modulation sweeps and all out noise!

freaker wah is cool for that ^^^ but if you're just using it on guitar a lot of wahs will work great too!
some sort of oscillating fuzz maybe?
i'd jump on the 141t by infanem while they are cheap on pre-order! the 141g is rad
or fuzzhugger stuff
also gonna suggest reverb
cadavernous might be cool? or any of the eqd stuff

I've had trouble getting something that sounds like Sonic Youth. Basically there were only two pedals I had that would take me that direction more than just playing weird chords on a clean guitar.
1 - Basic Audio Squarewave Plus
2 - TC ELectronic Flashback w/ Lee Ranaldo Toneprint (sounds silly, but really!)
But I would suggest above these to get a cool Ring Modulator. Those things are fun for days. I've loved every one I've tried, but the Fairfield Circuitry Randy's Revenge holds a special place in my heart. It's really great to get weird overtones or to go all out nasty alien destruction.

You gotta get a reverb. Personally, I can't recommend the Supermoon Chrome from Mr. Black enough.

Reverb wise.... with the ability to get your some cool swells in there (mostly when playing clean)...
Blackout Effectors Cadavernous.
I love mine and really enjoy using the swell feature. It's great when playing clean and using that as a little buildup between chords/notes. Lots of cool shit coming out of that box.
