stuff that compares love to death

1) the french word for 'orgasm' is 'la petite mort' which is a) feminine and b) translates directly to 'a little death' 2) that scene in the adventure time miniseries stakes when princess bubblegum is talking to marceline and cradling her face and says 'i care about you... and when you die, i'm gonna be the one to put you in the ground' 3) cannibalism media and the idea that to consume someone, even in harming them, is the way you express love for them, because that's the way you get to be closest for them 3a) yellowjackets 3b) that song breezeblocks by alt j with that lyric 'please don't go ill eat you whole / please don't go i love you so' 3c) freud's distinction btwn mourning and melancholia - where mourning is where you healthily deal with a loss by realizing that the thing you lost is separate from you, and melancholia is the thing where you cant deal with a loss and internalize the thing that you lost, and in becoming that thing refuse to acknowledge its disappearance 4) crush by richard siken, specifically 'because you want die for love, you always have... you're going to die in your best friend's arms' (richard siken is my hero even though he cyber harassed me over email for two days straight) 5) how phoebe bridgers sings 'im gonna kill you but please don't beat me to it' 5a) how i listened to that song over and over after my ex friend died (ex friend and not friend bc they did some messed up stuff so much that i could have wanted to kill them but they beat me to it)

birth (2004)

Finally saw this for the first time (on 35mm thxx Prince Charles Cinema) and wow. Jonathan Glazer and co-writer Jean-Claude Carrière spending all of pre-production re-writing the script without informing the studio… DP Harris Savides pushing the boundaries of underexposed film and getting the craziest deepest browns and purples out of Kodak stock… Alexandre Desplat starting with what seems like a very polite classical score and then gradually bringing in heavy synth bass… and of course Nicole Kidman throwing herself headlong into an insane role (and apparently bullying the producers for more $$$ when they finished under budget)

absolutely golden gate park

The less you read about it (or look at maps) the better. Just enter via Haight Street, turn your phone off and wander 'til you reach the ocean. If you go on a Sunday afternoon and you didn't already come across it, proceed to turn your phone back on and track back to the 6th Avenue Skate Park to check out the roller disco party 🛼🔊😎

independent/DIY radio just in london

Because of the extensive tradition of pirate radio in the UK (from Radio Caroline on down), London probably has the most insane landscape of 24/7 internet radio in the world. I've tried to rank these in terms of approximate popularity ranging from NTS (as mentioned) on down to purely DIY weekend-only amateur collectives like LWSTD. If you don't know the stations in your city, just have a quick google and do some Instagram "Following" list exploration and it should be pretty easy to find more (e.g. in Amsterdam check out Echobox, Radio Tempo Não Pára, RRFM, etc...) - NTS (Dalston) https://www.nts.live/ - Rinse FM (Hoxton) https://rinse.fm/ - Worldwide FM (Islington) https://worldwidefm.net/ (currently mostly on ice but great archive) - Balaami (Peckham) https://www.balamii.com/ - Soho Radio https://sohoradiolondon.com/ - Reprezent Radio (Brixton) https://www.reprezentradio.org.uk/ - Netil Radio (Hackney) https://www.netilradio.com/ - Subtle Radio (Hackney) https://www.subtleradio.com/ - Voices Radio (Kings Cross) https://www.voicesradio.co.uk/ - Aaja (Deptford) https://aajamusic.com/radio/ - Do You!! Radio (Hackney) https://doyou.world/ - LWSTD https://www.lovewillsavetheday.fm/
