I’m the same as I was when I was six-years-old, and oh my God, I feel so damn old. I don’t really feel anything. On a plane, I can see the tiny lights below, and oh my God, they look so alone. Do they really feel anything? Oh my God, I’ve gotta move on. Where do you move when what you’re moving from Is yourself?

The universe works on a math equation that never even ever really ends in the end. Infinity spirals out creation. We’re on the tip of its tongue, and it is saying, “We ain’t sure where you stand. You ain’t machines and you ain’t land.” The plants and the animals, they are linked, and the plants and the animals eat each other. Oh my God, and oh my cat! I told my Dad what I need. Well, I know what I have and want, but I don’t know what I need. Well, he said he said he said he said, “Where we’re going, I’m dead.”

“6 Underground (Live)” - Sneaker Pimps w/ Kelli Ali

Do you guys remember 1997? Do you guys also remember Sneaker Pimps? Do you remember Kelli Ali? OMG! Then at the least watch 00:35-1:04 of this. Jesus Christ! She’s using little facial expressions in time with the music and being so smooth about it. It’s just effortless cool, to me anyways. I had the biggest crush on this lady from 1996 -1997. Now I remember why.

On Making Eye Contact:

She first makes eye contact with the camera around the 35 second mark. Traditionally they tell people to not look at the camera during tv show tapings. I guess this is because it can sometimes come off as awkward or cheesy or make the person nervous. I’m not really sure of the reasoning behind the rule, but I think this shows someone who can get away with it perfectly. It’s like there’s not an awkward bone in her body. That center camera operator probably thought they were being seduced.

By the way, I’m getting pretty blown away by how weird popular culture was in the late 90s.

a song to kill yourself to when you’re a six-year-old kid covered in glitter and neon band-aids in someone’s basement during the early 90s, trying to fall asleep next to holiday barbies and lite-brites.

don’t be ashamed when you feel it.

jazz to be drunk to

“Silence” - PJ Harvey

At one point, several years ago, it seemed like my whole life was captured in this song. Now it’s just a song I enjoy like some others. I’m changing all the time, whether I like it or not.

“Tell Me Why” - Neil Young

Sailing heart-ships through broken harbors
Out on the waves in the night

“Oh Man!” - Sybris

“Night of Broken Glass”

“Before We Begin” - Broadcast

I attempted to cover Deradoorian’s “You Carry the Deed.”

“Where is my mind? (Piano Version)” - Maxence Cyrin (Originally by The Pixies)

(via sickofemptywords)

“In My Bones” - Pepi Ginsberg

If I feel a little bit of weakness in my bones, it is not because you have not come back to me. I am half-drunk on cherry wine telephone calls made to someplace that I’d rather be. I know that we are strangers to this weather, where curiosity has no measure. So c’mon, c’mon, c’mon! I am not going home! You make me better.
