“Lana Del Rey’s music is theatrical, noncommittal, and better on recordings than in person.” ¹
Apparently, Lana Del Rey’s music was really just me in disguise.

I started the day singing along to Robyn’s “Call Your Girlfriend,” complete with dance moves, and then I went on to sing a bunch of Frank Black songs to myself and, guys, I think I found the right formula for guaranteeing a pretty decent day.

I just bought "Greenberg" and "Up in the Air."
Because if there are two things I love, it’s middling movies about mentally unstable characters that kind of remind me of myself, and George Clooney.
And Anna Kendrick.
So, three things. But, mostly George Clooney.
tomlet asked: In respect to your dreaming issue. Before the intense dreaming starts, do you go through periods of insomnia or just several nights of light sleeping? Do you take a sleep aid? If your brain is deprived REM sleep, it will compensate later with longer stretches of REM sleep when able. With you in longer than average lengths of REM sleep, you will have longer, more intense dreams.

I watched Inception for the first time, tonight.
I bought it for $4 on Amazon, during Black Friday.
Yeah, I’d say that I got at least $4 worth of entertainment out of that.
And, okay, can I be real with you? I’ve been dreaming a lot, lately. I’m talking vivid. Every time I have any kind of substantial sleep, I have one of these lifelike dreams. It could be short, vague and surfacey, long, elaborate — but I almost always...
I was just woken up at 3:43PM.
Dad was concerned about whether or not I was still alive.
I’m still not sure.

doombots replied to your post: I think I like the Kaiser Chiefs, you guys.
Listen to whatever you want, the music police aren’t gonna come and beat down your door for being “late”. And if they did at least we’d know they actually existed so you know, you kinda win either way.
Oh, I know. To be clear, I don’t actually care about whether or not I’m supposed to like something or someone....

So, I was thinking about the statement I made in my last post, “I was ‘with it’ for approximately two years in the early ’00s,” and, you know, it’s really true.
Growing up, I was raised on classy shit. Musically (and cinematically and televisionically) I had limited exposure to what was modern and popular. I listened to the Beatles and the Monkees as a child,...

Is that okay? I don’t even know anymore. I might be six or seven years too late.

Guess who just cut off most of his hair.
It’s me. I did it.
I almost went the full Richie Tenenbaum (minus the wrist cutting) but decided to just leave everything heavily trimmed. I don’t think my hair’s ever been this short before.
Now my head is cold.

MLK: "America, too, is going to Hell, if..."
motherjones:
In Memphis, March 18, 1968, a few weeks before he was killed in that city:
…And I come by here to say that America, too, is going to Hell, if we don’t use her wealth. If America does not use her vast resources of wealth to end poverty, to make it possible for all of God’s children to have the basic necessities of life, she too will go to Hell. I will hear America through her...

This just made me tear up. Can you fucking believe that? A quote from the lead singer of the Hold Steady — I don’t know if I’ve ever even heard a Hold Steady song — on Tumblr nearly made me cry at 28 years of age.
This quote literally describes...

You can tell I'm having a bad day
I almost created a “Things My Prostitute Says” Twitter account. It would’ve been filled with things like:
“No.”
“That’s against the laws of physics. Sorry.”
“I thought Dr. Pulaski had more of Dr. McCoy’s curmudgeonly charm.”
“Stop crying.”
“Are you sure you wouldn’t rather have a man?”
“I...

Listen, I don’t follow pro football anymore, I know nothing about him except what everyone knows - he’s a Christian.
If he’s ever said he’s specifically praying for a win, that’s one thing (although we could have a conversation about prayer as energy and a positive force) but as far as I know, no one knows exactly what he’s praying. The fact that he’s a...
