'get a bloomin' move on' from the italian job (1969)

I think I rec'd this elsewhere, but it's the perfect song for getting ready and getting shit done. A silly call to arms for getting menial tasks done and getting out the door. Hard not to be motivated when you chant along to "This is the self-preservation society!" over and over again. (Dim All The Lights is such a good one though!)

mj lenderman - wristwatch

I get the most out of “Wristwatch,” with its descending riffs giving way to Xandy’s pedal steel on top of the guitar lead. The lyrics open with “So you say I’ve got a funny face/It makes me money” which conjures up a character misquoting Quiet Riot’s 1983 cover of Slade’s “Cum on Feel the Noize.” Lenderman excels at characters that come across as guys not getting it right, low-key committed to not quite understanding. A denseness, a hapless but easily seen wrongheadedness. Doubling down on not wising up.

'WHen my mind is uncertain my body decides'

Idk why but this line from In The Morning by Built to Spill just repeats over and over in my head... maybe it's cuz I used to listen to the Front Bottoms song where they ape that line in high school. Something about the way Doug Martsch says it just scratches my brain ykwim ..

NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOU AS MUCH AS YOU

this applies in multiple ways. for one there is nobody in your life who will have your best interests in mind as much as yourself. you may have amazing friends looking out for you but only you can make active decisions to improve your life in positive ways. even if you don’t feel great about yourself now, you should strive to care about yourself to the point you can make those decisions, because nobody else can make them for you. for two as much as your mind might be telling you otherwise, nobody cares about what you’re wearing or how you‘re doing things or what you think. be unapologetically yourself. if other people bring up their issues with it in a hateful way, they are just projecting their own insecurities onto you. i disagree with plenty of things people do or say but i can ultimately respect the fact they are willing to life their life the way they want. i don’t know their whole life story and i will never assume i do. for all i know, the things they have experienced in their life may have rationally led them to a completely different place than i am in now. and nobody can rightfully blame them for that.

BEING UNCOMFORTABLE IS THE ONLY WAY TO GROW

i feel like so many times when i’ve gotten disheartened or uncomfortable when trying/learning something new or encountering an unexpected situation, ive just mindlessly strayed away. the reality is they were opportunities for growth and i neglected to think twice about it
