The world needs more bullies. We need to stomp Silicon Valley into submission. How the fuck are we letting these losers that spend 20hrs/day on the computer control the world? They ought to get their heads stuck in the toilet. Maybe that will wake them up from their techno-fascists dreams

Anyone else find it weird
that the two leads for the new Wuthering Heights movie (terrible casting btw) immediately shot a Chanel ad together? A clear scheme to manipulate the masses into believing that luxury=passion. Hellfire to Hollywood and all their pathetic, plastic schemes. I hate movies

I have very little love for music. It has been ages since I’ve felt any joy from playing it, and I’ve accepted that I may never feel it again. But I continue to practice diligently every day because I recognize it as a powerful tool for shepherding the masses. A skill that may be useful one day

Having curry cheese fries at a local Irish Pub. Feels like falling in love. But that’s probably just the two pints of lager 🍀

Don’t let anyone tell you that Romeo and Juliet isn’t a love story. Or that Jack and Rose are bad people. Over-rationalization and over-moralization are the worst poisons of modern society. Don’t let them take your sweet soul away

Honestly we should just abolish music. The whole thing is just a failed experiment. Too many people with souls the size of insects controlling the industry. Especially indie dudes. Bunch of bland, spineless wanks who just found a hobby they happen to be okay at. So much lifeless garbage out there

People who think the Vampire Weekend is overrated just don’t realize how hard it is to play super high guitar notes over a bunch of basic major chords. All while going “wooo woo!” over and over like a good bunch of parrots. Truly great coffee shop music for the ages

People need to lay off the 🇫🇷 President and the First Lady! I’m sure they were just arguing about which one of the many amazing restaurants in Vietnam they were going to go to

Love banana-chocolate chip muffins. Probably my favourite pastry of all

The problem with popular rock music today is that it is mostly written by wusses who have never had to work a day in their life. Singing about rebelling and shit. Mf what are you rebelling against? Your curfew? Talk to me when you’ve sat through a 10 am client call. Fucking softbois

I stand firm on my belief that Fury (2014) is the best war movie of all time. Whoever disagrees is probably just some nerd who thinks that shit like Jarhead (2005) is a “subversive masterpiece”. Go watch Full Metal Jacket (1987) for the 15th time you freakin dork ;)

Why does our team consistently choke? It’s because our city (as a whole) lacks what it takes to dance in the fire. We don’t have the spark, the passion, the animal instinct. No amount of practice, planning, and discipline can make up for shortcomings of the soul

I also have very low opinions of Alejandro Jodorowsky. One Aquarian to another, I can tell the dude is BSing. Edgy shock-bait disguised as pretentious artsy surrealism (not sure which is worse). Having a lot of colours in your movie doesn’t make you a visionary!

Never understood intellectuals’ obsession with Nietzsche. Just another miserable sod to me. Dude looks weak as shit too. I could probably fold him with one arm tied behind my back!

I’ve figured out the itinerary:

1) Earth
2) Jupiter
3) Saturn
4) Uranus
5) Neptune
6) Mars
7) Venus
8) Mercury
9) The Moon
10) The Sun (from a safe distance)
11) Pluto

Of course, these kinds of things can get sidetracked. But we will try our best to stay on course

I have been very sick the past few days. Barely able to leave my bed. As the illness started at the end of Pisces season and is bleeding into Aries season, I will consider it my shamanic trial. One final test before the new beginning. Hope everyone else is doing better

Not a fan of this habit music journalists/commenters have of constantly comparing artists when introducing them. “She is often called the millennial Joni Mitchell.” “Her voice is reminiscent of Hope Sandoval.” “Her style is a tender mix of Joan Baez and Karen Carpenter”… etc, etc

I'm an all-American cow, but I support my friends in Canada! I could go for some delicious Pizza Pizza right now. Did you know you can get a single slice with a Coke and a bag of chips? A bag of chips! Who would have thought? Canadians, of course! This was in Niagara Falls, in 2023.

It is no good to see life as a series of trades. Energy for work, rest for energy, exercise for health, studying for knowledge, etc. Because this way we will always be burdened by illusions of limitations. When we detach each activity from the end result, we can achieve boundlessness
