I hope birds become our radios in the post-apocalypse, so they can tweet "Hollaback Girl" outside my window at 4AM beneath a dying red sun.

People like you for reasons outside of your control. People dislike me for reasons totally in my control. We are not the same. (We are the same.)

Went to see Under The Skin in the theater tonight, and god damn I forgot how incredible movie is. I love how it's extra horrifying on a second pass. So beautiful though

Shout out to the person who restarted The Magnolia Electric Co. discourse, because I somehow missed it all these years and I think it finally found me at just the right time

It was the tweet that quoted "Mama, here comes midnight with the dead moon in its jaws" as the best line ever written. For me, it's probably "No one makes it out. You're talking to one right now. For once, almost was good enough." One of the most devastating things I've ever read

I've spent a lot of time in my life wondering if the loneliness I experience is ultimately something I deserve, that what I say and do results in my alienation. But the other night it finally occurred to me that maybe I'm actually being spared something in this suffering.

Or possibly being spared the horror of parenthood, as someone who cannot overlook a feeling of transgression of forcing life and suffering upon a being who is not able to give its consent. Or the horror of failing that person I have forced to exist.

Maybe the truth is that loneliness is a gentle hell, and I should learn to love it and myself.

While I think it's nice that there's a possibility things could start to improve now, it's extremely tempered by the feeling that a ton of people 10-20 years younger than me are about to learn firsthand what made my generation so cynical and immediately push further left.

Would love more than anything to be wrong, but I'll believe it when I see it.

75% of Mitch McConnell's consciousness is stuck down there too, like Patrick Wilson trapped in The Further

Reading Luminous Emptiness and feeling like it might be worth doing a second pass on the Bardo Thodol/Liberation Through Hearing again now that I can better grasp what it's getting at.

rereading Dune and just came across the line “Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.” Frank Herbert was a prophet

I don't know what Twitter has done in the last week, but the app is running like microwaved dog shit for me now. Constant stutters and freezing and before it was totally fine. Love that this thing is basically a continuous experiment in enshittification now
