I need some friends from New Brunswick who can take me out to basement shows on weekends. God I love that scene, too bad I live too fucking far away to drive out there

What makes today different? Why do I feel as if I can take on the world, as if everything I do actually means something? Can I hold on to this feeling? I enjoy this power, this strength, this confidence. I feel hopeful and ready. Maybe it’s because of these talks we’ve had. You’ve told me that you’re happier now and that you like hearing my voice. We talk for hours and I trust so blindly, so...

Just got back
8 hour (total) road trip to Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland. I was honestly expecting to not like the place at all. It’s a small liberal arts college in the middle of cow country.

The tour guide was a tiny girl named Ellie who scurried around the little campus, stopping here and there to show us buildings and tell us...
Goodnight!
Gotta get up early tomorrow, visiting Washington College.

Let it roll off my shoulders
I am sitting here, staring at a screen, thinking of nothing in particular. Lurid bursts of color swim beneath my eyelids. Maybe I am asleep. I skim over the still frames that I’ve taken throughout my life. Some are faded grit, others clean-lined and terrifying. I weave language, hoping my threads will touch someone outside of the opaque mass of my inward reality. I realize that I do love to be...

“The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort, and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in a myriad of petty little unsexy ways, every day. That is real freedom.”
This happened today
Me: *out longboarding*
Little Boy on Sidewalk: Why is that person who's skateboarding a girl?!
Me: Fuck the Patriarchy! Also it's a longboard not a skateboard.
So if anyone wants to cuddle and watch Doctor Who...

Happy 50th, Dave →
“Is it possible to miss someone you’ve never met? In the two years that I’ve been reading David Foster Wallace—author of the mammoth novel Infinite Jest, three volumes of shorter fiction and many works of journalism and criticism—I’ve come to develop a bizarrely personal relationship with a man who killed himself before I had even read a page of his stuff.”
“I miss the...
