a really weird movie. one of those movies where you’re thinking “this movie is fucking weird” while watching, but you’re left with a good feeling when it’s over. what i took from it, considering myself a songwriter, is that you can‘t project onto artists or strive to be like them. everyone’s got their own struggle, sometimes it’s secret. i love domhnal gleeson too, so that makes it even better.

Yes I know about the other one. Yes I’ve seen it and yes it’s better. For some reason though this movie moved me. I don’t know anything about Bob Dylan. Never been a fan (don’t like his voice) but what I appreciated about the film is the way they showed him constantly working. I haven’t written anything in months. I’ve pushed it off, saying to myself ”what’s the point, nobody wants this, nobody needs this”. Seeing him push ahead and not be bogged down by what people wanted from him was inspiring as hell to me. So many people tried to box him in and keep him from experimenting with his art, which to me is the death of an artist. We’re meant to try. That’s all just try. Even if it will be a complete failure and laughed at, the act of trying is what makes art beautiful. I thought it was an ok movie. But seeing someone trying really hit me and me me realize that I need to make shit for me. That’s what Bob did.

especially the part where frances says “I'm so embarrased. I'm not a real person yet”

Really great movie about being directionless and a fucking idiot (an innate part of being in your mid twenties 💅🏻)

what’s that like? i’ve never experienced it. i’ve been searching for a job nonstop for the past five months and fucking no one has gotten back to me. i haven’t even been called back to say i didn’t get the job. i’m sick of it. i’m not in desperate need of a job but i’d rather have one before i am.
i was expecting a call back all day. i waited by the fucking phone. i called because i was expecting a call this week, and the guy who interviewed me said “i’ll call you tomorrow.” fuck you. i hope you can’t sleep at night because you keep having dreams about your ex. i hope she calls you the next day and says she wants to get back together with you and she’ll meet you at your favorite date spot. i hope she stands you up, dan. i hope everything bad that could happen to you, happens. i wish murphy’s law upon you.
edit: it’s so funny because this is my first semi-serious post that’s doing NUMBERS. thought i’d point that out and brag a little. maybe i don’t need a job after all. can i monetize this post?
