charlie parker serenades a cow

every little anecdote about some young musician hearing a new type of music for the first time and weeping and then feeling determined to learn to play that way is so beautiful to me

hoping to conquer my fear of the oven tonight

someone flipped it over?

vending machine rejecting my dreams of afternoon snack

tasteful worm-themed decor

feeling real glum, not sure why

"viral reading"

can't believe they don't really make vegan gummi worms

can't go to sleep, i need to cut out decorative worms

my take of the day is i don't think we need to do a round of the same film/TV screenshots each year when the day mentioned passes

i love living alone 95% of the time. the other 5% is when i am sick and when i want to rearrange my furniture

a mature cat, a wise cat

my therapist gave me permission to not be ambitious but i still want to finish literally anything

tired of feeling stupid

you ever think about how ""outsider art"" often has common stylistic elements

can't believe one of my most tedious unmemorable reads last year made it on the international booker longlist

hate to say it but i do want art to be beautiful in some way and it upsets me when it's not. i think i have a generous view of what constitutes "beauty" but it's not everything so i'm frequently put off

read this blog post about a plagiarism scandal in the chinese literary scene and i can't get past the idea that every province and city has its own state funded literary journal lol www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2026/fe...

the wind is so loud!

sometimes the cat wants to be hugged

pissed off reading misogynist pedophiles impotently speculate about things well understood and described by any mildly observant lay feminist

such a letdown when people write an article about a really interesting topic but don't actually have much to say on the matter

one thing that's nice about not using twitter is rarely getting caught in a rage at clickbait

i'm so sore from soccer, almost like i haven't played in months

the snow looks so pretty on the rooftops

don't really want to watch people scrolling 4chan in a film, but still somehow won over by castration movie pt i

still trying to figure out what's wrong with my apartment that makes it $300/mo cheaper than my old one

not very inspiring weather for playing soccer...

Tuff

i need 5 days of weekend, 2 days of work

nice

hooked on harmonics

lol my dad's work colleague lives on the same floor of my building just a few doors down

it's crazy and upsetting how many of them there are that i completely forgot even began with him

my supervisor came around to distribute lego plants because we aren't allowed to have real plants. sounds dystopian but have to concede i find it cute

i want to work on the last little essay for my zine

every interaction i have with ai is so upsetting i'm desperate for this bubble to burst

couldn't sleep last night because i kept dreaming about cockroaches

makes me feel bad when i feel no curiosity about certain things, but it's impossible to sustain enthusiasm for everything

feel exhausted by coworker and am eager for him to get a different job

predicting i'm going to get pissed off by the end of ken burns jazz for claiming jazz is over starting in the 60s

very concerned with the erosion of moral authority of the royal family

i want to be home brushing my cat, something she apparently likes now thanks to my mom

had a nightmare i wore the wrong shoes to go mucking around in the river

i've got a real phobia of the smoke detector

oh hello

if it's going to be gloomy out for days, it better be this foggy

thinking about my cat
