for different moods, new friends who you sense have complementary taste in music to your own, for different seasons, for recent discovery, to grieve, to celebrate, to create! years later I can scroll my playlists and see where I was at, and they’re also personal time capsules in that way.

I make playlists every month or every season, depending on my mood. It’s nice to go back and listen to stuff I was into my freshmen year of college, or during the pandemic. I add songs to the playlist that my friends send me or I hear in movies or tv shows, along with songs I just love and want to be hearing. Like a little time capsule

What better way to archive your personality and feelings than through music. While I’m here this is my fall /winter 2024 playlist

This is my love language.
I’ve loved It since the days of making mix CDs, so I typically keep them to 18-20 songs. Somewhere around an hour. Playlists can be infinite now, but adding self-imposed limitations forces you to make choices and be intentional. It makes for better playlists.
Sometimes I make playlists for people based around a theme (like Fall) but other times it’s a random word or word phrase like “retro futurism.” The goal is always to find those gems that people will hear for the first time and go, “Oh man, I love that song.”

extend the life of your clothes by covering holes or stains with embroidery floss and yarn while giving them new cool zombie flair! you don’t even have to be neat, the more imperfect the weave the more organic the result. the best mended garments are almost fungal, covered in sick multi-colored lichen.

it’s not bed rotting to rest when you’re tired, run-down, or sick.
I can feel where capitalist dogma has seeped into me every time I feel doubt or shame for how much time I’ve spent in bed or doing very little, or the fear that I’ll never be motivated to do anything again. it’s not true! inevitably after only 3 days of solid rest I naturally crave activity, projects, organization, work, and not as penance.
rec for rest: screen time of any kind is not the rest I’m talking about… we’re talking rest as a monotask.

my fridge? a gallery.
tripping in the street? physical comedy workshop.
eating chips and salsa and guac? that tortilla is a brush, my guy, and your mouth is the easel.
