  • Rum, Sodomy and the Lash by the Pogues. Seemless blending of punk and traditional irish music that’s still as raw and refined today as ever.

    Pretty much anything by the Velvet Underground. They’re the quintessential “barely anyone came to their shows but everyone who did started a band” band.

    Early Pixies - Surfer Rosa or Come on Pilgrim. Basically no grunge otherwise.

    Probably everything by Sun Ra, but his earliest wrangling of electronic keys into jazz in like the 40s or whatever seems pretty consequential. Plus probably no P-funk as we know it without Sun Ra, which has heaps of knock on effects.

    Yes yes yes! The clutter, the teeth, the bills, the ghosting. Watching things you can and want to do not get done is a special kind of frustrating.

    However:

    identify and accept that I am the problem… sucks to suck

    Naahhhh, fuck that.

    If a shelf is too high for me to reach, I don’t suck for being short. No amount of people telling me to reach harder will help.

    The entire rest of the world is the problem. Don’t internalize that bullshit, don’t blame yourself for things you know could not have possibly gone differently.






  • Gaudi architecture is legit amazing and worth the wait and crowds. Didn’t even have time to see the sagrada familia, just the hotel and the park. Then we had the worst meal of my life in a tourist trap resteraunt on las ramblas. Even including that, so worth it.

    Jiufen, taiwan - the village that people falsely claim inspired miyazaki’s spirited away - is also just incredible. The views, the winding lantern-bedecked staircase, the teahouses. It’s crowded and full of touristy knick knacks but i still took everyone who visited.
