oh people will be so preachy. "be cringe, be free" this and "let people enjoy things" that. "New Sincerity" is the hot new philosophical buzzword. And it always applies to what THEY don't want to be afraid of liking.
But then they turn around and make fun of me relentlessly for loving and respecting the sheer passion and multidisciplinary expertise of Epic Rap Battles of History. Eat your hat. Those guys work hard and they're the best at what they do, which is making me happy. Get real

Neil and Sarah are perhaps the most empathetic and thoughtful of the current essayist movement. this video is about art, post-modernism, delineation, dying, living, and itself. a deeply emotional piece, life affirming and inspiring. you should watch it.

Desaparecendo aos poucos No fundo ninguém vai se importar Eu sei que tudo aquilo é apenas algo que reforça minha palpitação De pálpebras Eu não preciso esperar mais, até pelo motivo de ter tentado de tudo Eu aproveitei todas as minhas chances E sinto que nada mudou Sério por que você não dança comigo? Para gente se sentir de novo Para eu entender tudo que eu sinto Digo eu já fui lá, bati e liguei Você sabe onde me encontrar Não sei Nunca mais te vi

75: Zeitgeist (The Reivers) // Translate Slowly
Tumblr media
Translate Slowly Zeitgeist 1985, DB
As urbanites hitting their late 20s always have, in the mid-‘80s many of the original alternative rock vanguard had begun to look wistfully at the rustic beauty and low property values of rural America. The Feelies, Mekons, Dream Syndicate, Green on Red, Replacements and more all took a twirl in front of the changing room mirror at their local country ‘n’ western surplus store, and a lot of them liked what they saw. Formed in 1985, Austin, Texas’s Reivers (originally and worsely named Zeitgeist) were part of the first generation of new rock bands to come together during this trend and, in their minor way, helped form the bridge from jangle pop to the alt. country and Americana of the ‘90s.
youtube
On Translate Slowly, the Reivers first and (by a fair distance) best record, their sound could be described as The Good Earth-era Feelies with Kate Pierson from B-52s riding shotgun: same rhythmic tension beneath the pastoral aesthetics, same pensive mien, like getting a bit lost in your thoughts about whether you should’ve finished your English degree while riding a tractor. My enjoyment of the Reivers is inversely correlated to their level of pep. Co-lead vocalist Kim Longacre has a fine voice, but she’s gratingly full-throated for a band otherwise well-suited to a relaxing beer after work—I feel myself frowning at supposedly fun up-tempo tracks like “Araby,” as though someone is repeatedly jostling my table while I try to read a book at my crowded local (like a jackass).
The record gathers strength as it goes on, with the good advices of the title track and compact workout “Things Don’t Change” being the keepers. The Reivers would sign to a bigger label prior to their next album and immediately wore an onion on their belt (stank), as was the fashion at the time. Eventually there was an Uncle Tupelo, and then a backlash to Ryan Adams, followed swiftly by the heat death of the universe.

truth is sitting awful fucken bad
i’m sloshed so there’s that eclipse
eating to eat fucking to fuck when i’m pulsed
it’s boo yah, time after prolapsed time
getting oldhead, flaming truant
played on like blasted most parable-
logic in the flume
of love’s disinterst
let a wise purr flock the bounced
or murk upon skunk chalice
if i see i’ll flail like that promise but flipped

thinking about this one authors note that i read on a fanfic awhile ago that was like "hey guys pls leave feedback i hate when people write stuff like 'the older man' or 'the englishman' or stuff like that to refer to people but idk how to not do that" like. just write their names. they're their names. no rules against using them a million times.

Last night i cried for no discernible reason by Mira Gonzalez
last night i cried for no discernible reason in an apartment that doesn’t belong to me in front of a person who also doesn’t belong to me (because people can’t own other people)
i say that i don’t like owning things but i’m not sure if that’s entirely accurate
i used to only cry alone i have cried more in front of people in the last 6 months than in the last 5 years of my life combined probably…
crying seems funny, to me
i am on a very crowded train passing grand central station it is 9:01AM and i am officially late for work
i am late for work because i slept 15 minutes past my alarm then i had sex then i stopped for coffee
i am late to work every day when you’re an intern nobody cares what you do
the main thing I am learning at my internship is how to look busy when i’m not doing anything also, i am very good at making photocopies now and putting labels on things
today i got an email from a woman in human resources she was upset because i haven’t gone to any of the ‘intern events’ because the ‘intern events’ count as your lunch break and i want to eat lunch alone i have become very good at avoiding other interns
at 5pm i will take a crowded train to my second job at my second job i have learned how to answer phones and transfer calls to the appropriate extensions and smile at people and bring people coffee and call the car service and process fed ex packages
today my brother emailed me while having a good drug experience i want to have fun when i take drugs but it’s difficult, sometimes
also, i want to lose 20 pounds but i think that is an unrealistic goal considering i don’t exercise and my diet is terrible and i am unmotivated
i think i would like to go to mexico and just hang out for a while my dad says I have 50 cousins in mexico but i have never met them
would they let me leave work early if i got hit by a car but wasn’t seriously injured

I can’t include them all so here’s a combo of ‘came to mind first,’ ‘talked about positively most often by fans,’ and ‘stuck in my head’.
Public Apology Big Iron isn’t here. There were a lot that didn’t make the cut but that one specifically I stg I put in and only realized after posting had not. It was 100% meant to be on this list and I’ve failed us.

@/calcium-cat preaching about kindness and thanking people for kind words and completely ignoring the other 99% that were hurt by what she said really goes to show what kind of a person she is.

i hope she leaves the fandom, fr. she's got no place in queer spaces to act all empowering while being bigoted.
