Normally, I’m a big album person, but lately my roommate got me into listening to my liked songs. It’s amazing. You get the best of all worlds, Nirvana into Clairo into Caroline Polachek into Talking Heads into Andre3000… How spectacular that we have all of the music in the world just at our constant disposal.

I have over 1,000 liked songs on Spotify spanning from what feels like a lifetime of music listening. I’ve currently been in a little bit of a music slump, so throwing on my liked songs and just seeing what pops up has been a really fun reset for me. I’m rediscovering a lot of old favorites.

i’m not saying i want to or will put on every subgenre (bc i will not!) but i love being able to listen to most genres or at least appreciate most genres when playing their best. i’ve got playlists for so many moments and genres and moods and it makes me so happy having such a variety of music in my life! i’ve found that people who say ā€œi listen to everything but country and rapā€ usually don’t even have a wide variety of music preferences within the ā€œeverything butā€ they refer to. music is such a diverse form of art and restricting yourself to a few artists or only what’s popular (hello tiktok…) is doing a disservice to the medium and to yourself as someone able to listen to music. now, i’m not at all saying that liking ā€œpopularā€ music is bad in and of itself. i also love charli xcx and tyler the creator and so on, but i don’t think you should restrict yourself to the top 40 and your daily life will likely be improved if you listen to all kinds of music, on the reg or least occasionally in an exploratory way. it also makes me sad when artists i’ve liked a while become popular online for a few songs but it seems like people new to the artist don’t bother listening to their earlier music or subgenre. i’m happy more people enjoy them but omg! like for example, charli XCX being seen as ā€œnewā€ by some people - but there’d be no brat without how i’m feeling now and pop 2, nor without pc music and SOPHIE. i actually suspect the percentage of people streaming apple who could tell you who SOPHIE is is probably depressingly low :( anyways, i’m no purist and of course have my own regular rotation but, i really really recommend exploring within different genres to find more of what you like. you might even be surprised! maybe you don’t like all kinds of country, but you learn you fuck with folk (or at least johnny cash, i mean, c’mon); maybe you think hyperpop is ā€œtoo weirdā€ for you but you discover some electropop you’re obsessed with. exploring musicā€”ā€œlistening to everythingā€ā€”is very worth it!

I’ve heard some of the coolest music from recommendations from friends. It shows you care and it gives you more common interests. plus, it also kind of gives you more of an idea of how they are as a person.

Saturn is really the best planet. There’s a reason why the only planetary body that has an emoji that isn’t a luminary is Saturn. Neptune is maybe a close second though.

Videos, outside of your window, whatever. Lighting is so scary but so intriguing and beautiful at the same time. Or maybe those things make it beautiful. I don’t know. All I know is that I love watching lightning strike.

It’s a wet and gloomy day. My hair is frizzy, my tea is ginger and peach flavored. I used lipstick on my lips and cheeks today and nothing else. The shoes I’m wearing are not made for the rain. This morning I was reading East of Eden. Frazzled is how I would describe myself right now. I feel like your favorite English professor who’s always running late. Highly recommend.
