I know it isn't good to look up to celebrities, but something about Mac Demarco absolutely entranced me from the minute I first listened to one of his songs.
It was 2019 on a hot summer night. I was alone on my deck, having just taken acid for the very first time an hour and a half prior. The mutual friend I got it from texted me a recommendation that I listen to 'Ode to Viceroy" once I hit peak, and so I stuck my headphones in my ears and turned it on. I think I absorbed every single note in that song on a molecular level right then and there. I really got into his music over the next year, and enjoyed watching interviews and whatever other content about him had been put out.
I've unfortunately never gotten the chance to see him live, and I'm not sure if he will ever perform again on a tour nearby where I live, but a girl can dream. I had hopped on the bandwagon a bit too late I fear. Oh well, I still love all the music he puts out, regardless if he tours again or not. He just seems like such a fun guy, and seems to keep things weird and real. The way things ought to be.

I used to listen to him a lot more when i was younger, but i’ve been picking him back up recently along with steely dan. A bit hungover and laying like a cat on the warm concrete listening to Finally Alone and Hey Nineteen. This type of music is what girls who grew up on 70s yacht rock fw now a days. Grab yourself a friend w a boat, a day off from work, and a nice juicy watermelon slice.

You don't always have to be doing something productive or creative. Sometimes it is okay to just take a step back and exist.

🕶I've posted about this once before and will post about it again, I'm sure. One of the things that I have noticed since getting letterboxed last year is how afraid people are to admit they like something. that new animated k-pop movie on netflix made me notice this again when three of the people that I have on there prefaced their reviews with a variant of "i consumed this ironically, but it was actually kind of good..."
...LAME... and a little bit pathetic to see tbh.
We really need to remember that you only live once. just fucking enjoy the stuff you like, and stop asking the world for permission and acceptance to do so! being so afraid of what others will think when you post a review under a kid's movie is more cringe than admitting you like a kid's movie.
