it’s a raw display of the body being overtaken by emotion and passion and sensuality. theres something so personal and vulnerable about dancing on your own, and yet it makes you feel like the ruler of your own world (even if not for long). every time i hear the robyn song dancing on my own i think of the scene in girls when marnie and hannah dance in hannah’s room after she find out her ex was gay. it’s such a perfect scene and a perfect song, and i really feel they both encapsulate the feeling private dance parties evoke for me. it took me longer than it should have to get into it, but now i think i organically feel the need to have a dance party in my room once a week or so. i think this is the way it should be.

heck yeah! there’s nothing quite like being able to let loose with music, to thrash your pent up feels out physically - the good and bad, with reckless abandon. free from the contraints of being *perceived* !! like, there’s no worries about ‘cringe’, no embarrassment. it’s just me and mine own ass which doth shaketh most blasphemously singin’ along, feelin’ it

that last paragraph especially speaks to me. Dancing when nobody is watching is so much fun, just lost in our own movements

last night i danced for like an hour just by myself. its a great workout and the more i do it, the closer i feel to really letting loose and dancing around other people it's also the only time i feel like i can dance to just my favorite songs

I guess I don't mind dancing with other people in public places, it's fine, not my favorite thing. And I do like impromptu dance parties that happen in kitchens and living rooms and hallways, totally uncool, but full of laughter and life and usually short-lived. But I truly love dancing alone—often with headphones—absolutely rocking out, totally free, not giving a damn, lost in it

I don’t believe in ranking things- restaurants, albums, books, movies, athletes anything, top x lists whatever. I think it’s a waste of time honestly. Even with a completely objective criterion what’s the point. Would rather listen to and read people just talk about their favorite things and why they are special and meaningful to them- everyone has their own, interesting reasons. And this is a great place to do that!
