i've been a fan since i saw them in 2014 when they opened for paramore and fall out boy. that whole concert will forever be one of my all time favorites. the vibes were immaculate. the singer is so fun to watch, and they all look like they really enjoy what they do. I really wish they would have a headlining tour because they are way too good to be opening for other bands still to this day. i need to see them do a full set one day!
'disappear here' is one of my all time favorite albums! it is just banger after banger, no skips whatsoever. my favorites being 'off she goes', 'swimming in the moonlight', and 'even in my dreams i cant win'.
their whole discography sounds like being your happiest self outside in warm summer sunshine.

speaking of solo concerts, i went to The Beths last night for the second time this year and wow, they are truly one of my favorite bands ever. Australian indie rock band with an incredible show both times. tight tight TIGHT band. danced my shit off, incredible guitar lines, the whole band sings backup vocals while they play, itās unreal. feels like driving 95 down a highway or running as fast as you can until you fall straight into a body of water. feels like the most charming and poignant ways to sing about a breakup. feels like I LOVE LIVE MUSIC!!! ran into a friend at the show who told me they found The Beths through a playlist i made and got hooked. made my night. maybe you will be next

This is my favorite album of 2021 and there was A LOT of good music released this year IMO. Literally every song is a banger. Stallions and Dummo Loop are probs two of the best songs I have ever heard but literally all of them are good. There really hasnāt been a day thatās gone by where I havenāt listened to at least one of the tracks on this record since it was released. Iām lucky to know and call the three that make up this boyband my friends and am grateful I have gotten to experience some of the most demented (in the fun way) times of my life with them in the past few years (eZoo, holy shipwrecked in the DR, 2 weeks straight of shows without stopping, etc). For real tho, I just finished a small east coast tour with them and my other fave boy band,Ā AnamanaguchiĀ (who's albumĀ [USA]Ā (2019)Ā is also very much worth checking out) in October and the energy they brought every day and night to the van and the stage was inspiring and exciting. If u ever have the chance to see them do a live set or a DJ set I highly recommend u go. Iām a huuuge wavedash stan and u should be too!

Itās incredible how many people genuinely think they are boring. There have been so many times Iāve spoken with people and they confess that they think that they havenāt done much with their life, or that they donāt have much interesting to talk about, but itās almost never the case.
From what I can tell, itās often caused by a lack of knowing thyself. Or maybe a low self esteem? Iāve been through it too, and it is so so not true for anyone.
Youāve done so much living. Why do you feel like your story is not worth telling? I know youāve gone through some crazy shit once or twice. if you really havenāt, whatās stopping you from getting out there and creating stories to talk about? Start small! go to a coffee shop once a week. See if they have any clubs to join, and try that out! youāll be making memories in NO TIME.
If you have trouble finding meaningful/fun conversation, just remember that the effort must flow both ways. You are merely just working with what the other person is providing you, and if they arenāt giving you anything to work with, itās not your fault. You arenāt boring, you are just around people who dont vibe with you. And thatās okay! Not every person is going to be your specific kind of person. Plus, if you arenāt having fun talking to them, why does it matter if they like you? the much cooler people who value your input are just around the corner. I promise.
One day youāll be able to shine your beautiful personality on someone who is equally as bright you are, you magnificent comet, you.

Nostalgia is so powerful. And so painful.
Iāve made Pinterest boards filled with hundreds of memories and toys and things that shaped my childhood. Iāve made playlists that include only songs that make me feel 6 years old again. Iāve watched movies that bring me the same wonder they did as when I watched them as a child.
But nothing will ever truly bring me back there. Itās gone forever. to know that I will never walk the halls of my elementary school building, or try and plant an apple seed in between the slides of the playground, or play tag with my best buddies ever again is something unbearable. life is so short. I miss it all of the time.
Adulthood has its perks as well. I never have to ask to go sleep over at a friends house and get told no. I can eat what i want. I can get a kitten if I feel like it. But I miss the simplicity and happiness of being a child. I miss just existing and being okay with that. i miss how I felt when I was 6, but I have to accept that I must leave that behind.
Maybe reincarnation is real. Maybe I will live through something like this life again?
There is an ache knowing I will never walk the same tiny footsteps as I once did. But alas, Iāll be 19 years from where Iām at now and miss this age just as much as I do then. The ache will take a new shape. And i will continue living on.

My favorite thing in getting to know new people is finding out the things they enjoy that seem a bit out of character. I think itās comforting and a bit sexy when not everything that they like has to be ācoolā for them to really enjoy it. Being self-assured and knowing your worth is hot.
After all, life is too short to try and shape yourself around a mould that doesnāt truly resonate with you. Just enjoy the things that bring you joy without caring if they are basic or lame to others. you can enjoy the band that everyone hates, enjoy the movies that people think are overrated, and wear the shirt that went out of style 5 years ago.
true authenticity is a rare trait, always has been. Itās like striking gold when you find that inner peace to just be yourself, regardless of how cringy others find it. Find the peace to like what you like without shame.
