The thrill of it all - it never gets old

Discovering new-to-me music and being inspired !  Watching a Terrence Malick film for the tenth time and still finding something new to marvel at.  Driving around LA and not hating it nearly as much as my fellow New Yorker’s told me I would.  Listening to two strangers discuss politics and gender fluidity as I tap my painted fingernails across my iPad - will either of them change their position at the end of the heated debate? Is Andre 3000 even possible?  Finding comfort in the fact that Solange genre hops with no apologies!  No need to talk, its not my thing.  So much art to make its dizzying — it will cure all evil !

arrested development and in the realm of the senses

i've been posponing so many movies and tv shows on my watchlist that i ended up with 4 digits so i said fuck it. i just watch whatever, no matter my mood, or being made by that director, or seing a new tiktok about that show. so what it doesn't fit with "the vibe" of what i just watched 5 minutes ago? the satisfaction of experiencing a new idea, portrayed in a different way, said by a new voice (new to me at least) it really makes my day. i know i am not saying anything new to you: that you should enjoy every new piece of art because it's art; but i say it coming from a place where i used to spend all my time concentrating on developing my own unique taste and ended up sabotaging my overall experince with cinema and art in general, which made me more resentful with new things, and just made me overall sad for the way i ended up watching movies. i think the most important think i learned is no matter what watch things with an open mind. And no mater what remind yourself to do that, remind your friends to do that, remind it to strangers, remind it to everyone. maybe i am not really touching anyone with this post but i know how important it was for me to see a reassuring message like this in my past. it didn't change the way i tought at the time but it stuck with me. maybe no one will see this post and that's ok beacuse i wrote it for me.

build bridges

between others. it’s something i’ve always been good at and take pride in doing in the everyday. i just want to make the proverbial “it“ mean something. whether that be small, like recommending a local shop to a friend looking for something. or “big“, like referring someone to a future partner or job. it can be done with or without words, whether through advice or a simple nudge. i like to bring people together, create communities, or provide jumping off points. without sounding grandiose, i feel like my life’s work is to inspire. i think eventually i’ll settle my jittery hands on a specific craft that acts as a visual language to accomplish this, as i've always been fond of art. but, i don’t think that’s all that’s in store for me, one big grand statement. i think my impact translates into everything i pursue.

havent even read any kafka but

"Last night I dreamed about you. What happened in detail I can hardly remember, all I know is that we kept merging into one another. I was you, you were me. Finally you somehow caught fire."

my friend jove

he inhales rather than exhales so it's just this hilarious gasping sound while throwing his hands around, it's also super fun to imitate
